The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time
Hyakuichi Episode-Encounters of people crawling on the ceiling
The traps set up in the dungeon are basically set up for those who walk on the ground or those standing by the wall. Few traps are aimed at those flying in the air.
Because, for the first incarnation of the demon king, Gudulanis, the dungeon is a trap for breeding farms and treasure troops to increase the number of monsters.
It is said that Regent, a genie of time and art, intervened to provide training grounds, resources and treasure.
But Recrent fell asleep before the war ended, and of course the Demon King was sealed.
That is why neither the Demon King nor Recrent assumes the existence of humans flying in the sky.
Currently, Vida's new race pterosaur dragons, harpies, bat beast races, etc. can fly in the sky with wings, but rare magic items at the time of the war when there was no new Vida race There were no humans in the air other than Lambda, except for the technicians who used it and advanced magicians and those who aimed at the monsters flying in the sky.
Most of them fly in the sky with monsters, and the human beings are basically not expecting to go on the ground.
Nevertheless, traps targeting those traveling in the air may be set up in B-class and A-class dungeons, but this is unlikely in dungeons below C-class.
However, dungeons that resemble caves and archeological sites may stick to the ceiling and aim for surprises.
The mucus, the slime, was sticking to the ceiling to aim for it.
A slime that prioritizes repelling intruders over its own life as a monster instinct in a dungeon, patiently waits for the prey to pass below.
What I heard, however, was the sloshing noise crawling around the ceiling. The slime ignored the other monsters.
But the Lord of the sound is approaching as it is.
Despite being a monster in the same dungeon, there is no companionship. Other monsters are only prey to each other, only lower priority than the intruder's repulsion.
The slime, according to instinct, has determined that the approaching demon is a prey.
But it wasn't a monster that was approaching. An intruder, sprawling from the back and bees from the side, grabbing the ceiling and crawl.
“…………!”
Slime doesn't look at things like humans do, but even his instinct has been stopped by too strange a sign.
"Huh? The reaction suddenly disappeared?"
There was no danger using [Danger Detection: Death] .... Whether or not a trap was set up, Vandalou, who had been searching from the ceiling ahead of time, was puzzled by the sudden disappearance of reaction and wandered his gaze.
I wondered if there was a trap on the ceiling or a monster ambushed ... but the trap shouldn't disappear on its own, and it would be unnatural for the monster to escape and not make a single sound.
There are some reactions when using [Life detection], but there is no strong reaction. Originally I didn't feel a big danger, so maybe a poison or something.
Judging by this, Vandaloo tried to proceed, and touched his hand, stiffened to a stiff feel.
The Vandaloos challenged the D-class dungeon, "Lizardman's Nest," to ensure that Talea's power leveling and the Lizardman's loyalty to himself were absolute, but the harvest was immediate.
"Tame the slime."
Vandalou, who brought back a slime of the size of a Tala with a nucleus the size of a child's fist, was very happy.
"Oh, it's definitely a slime."
"It's true, I saw it for the first time."
"that's unusual"
"I'm the first slime to see."
"Surely slime"
Kasim, Zeno, Fester, Tarea, and Rita who were shown it admire "unusual" around the slime.
"It's certainly unusual, but why do you seem so happy?
However, when Saria asks strangely, everyone sees Vandaloo for what it is.
Slime is certainly unusual for them. This giant amoeba-like shape of a rank 2 monster is a troublesome opponent if ordinary people or newcomers are surprised. Even if you wield farm equipment or improvised weapons, it has no effect because it has strong resistance to hitting.
However, rank 2 after all. If you use martial arts, you can push down enough by pushing, and if you have a weapon suitable for piercing, you can easily penetrate the nucleus and kill it.
If you can use attack magic, you can get rid of it more easily.
Top breeds such as metal slime and poison slime are unavoidable enemies, but raw slime is only a small fish unless you are careful.
In fact, even in Makai, there are more cases of hunting for dead carcasses than hiding behind other monsters.
Therefore, it is a rare monster that is rarely encountered.
I don't think it's a demon to be happy with. Especially as Vandaloo, who has already claimed several high-ranking demons, is pleased.
"Because it is slime."
However, for Vandaloo, slime is one of the fantasy monsters alongside goblins.
The slimes that are quivering in Vandalu are not comical or cute, unlike the slimes that appear in national games that were very popular on Earth. Rather, it is dark, viscous and even creepy.
But it is slime.
"It's weak now, but it's going to get stronger. Like bones, Pete and Paine."
The bone man who now rides on horses and rios, and Knoghen, who has arrived at Bournefort, a disaster-specified species, were originally rank 1 living bones. Even at rank 2 now, there is a good chance that it will grow into a disaster designated species that surpasses the dragon in the future.
"Kichigi"
As it seems, Pete and the former Payne Worm's Pain appear from Vandaloo.
Pete was ranked as a 100th rank lightning thunder who fired from the corner of his head, and Paine was ranked as a rank 4 furworm with a large amount of fluffy hair.
"""""surely……"""""
When they were told with a certain track record, they were all convinced.
"Then we have to be careful not to be overtaken by slimes."
"Sure, in about eight years, the boner ... isn't it difficult?"
"I don't mind if I get overtaken."
"Bochan, please raise us properly!"
Originally strange and not objectionable, the Casims were convinced of Vandaloo's theory of power and were convinced that the slime would become a big game in the future.
Usually, even ranks 5 and 6 are already big.
"By the way, your Majesty, what's your name?
When the slime is scared, Princess Leviah, floating slightly away, asks Vandalu, thinking a bit, and said,
"Let's call it a kuule."
The origin of the military state is similar to German, meaning "cold." Slime has no gender, so this name would be fine.
"I see. Curly. By the way, are you going to take me? Or is someone carrying you?"
"Oh, it's okay. I can equip it with [insect art]
At that time, at that time, the slime cues were sucked into Vandalu's arms.
"... Slime was an insect?"
"This is the biggest surprise today"
"Probably, the insects in the [insect art] include not only insects but also insects that mean crawling creatures."
If slime is included in insects, snakes and lizards could be equipped. As expected, crocodile and dragon are impossible.
The history of the D-class dungeon "Lizardman's Nest" is not known because it has no record, but it is probably old.
According to the oral traditions passed down to the knowledge base of Shashuja and the Lizardman, the Lizardman that occurred in this dungeon seems to be their ancestor.
In Tarosheim, just north of the swamp, tens of thousands of years ago the Lizardman had already been noted on the slate, so this dungeon would have occurred at that time. .
Lizardmans, who had a great runaway from Lizardman's Nest, won the race in the swamp and settled in. He captured "Lizardman's Nest" in search of food and combat experience that he could have in the winter.
It's ironic that monsters overflowing from a dungeon run over the dungeon to capture the dungeon.
Furthermore, since some time, the Lizardman who completely captured this dungeon alone was recognized by the god who created them (name unknown), so the custom of respecting as a representative of this marsh family was It looks like it's done.
The swarm at the time of the nonaggression treaty with Talosheim was headed by its representative.
"Well, if you capture us, you won't be recognized as a representative, right?"
"No problem. I'll be solo when I'm trying to capture the estimated B-class dungeon where Rio (Ringo) came out."
The custom was abolished at the same time that the B-class dungeon, the hometown of Riot, broke out.
"Even though we say solo, we also possess it."
"Ghiggiti"
And they captured the dungeon up to twelve levels underground. There were many lizardmen that appeared only in the hometown of Lizardman, so it would have been painful for Kassim alone because there were many Lizardmen, but there were rank 5 Levia, rank 6 Saria and Rita, and even Vandaloo.
There should be no struggle in a D-class dungeon. In addition, you can understand the structure of the hierarchy that you have set foot in with [Labyrinth Construction] skill, so you do not get lost.
If I wanted to do it, I could have done it completely in a matter of hours.
Treasures and Casims, cuule leveling. It also had the purpose of verifying the dungeon's asset value. On the way, Talea's [Night Vision] skill changed to [Night Vision] with the two effects of [Ecstasy King], and the Kashims gained a new [Night Vision] with the same effect, so the changed vision I spent two days, training a little to get used to it.
As a result, the Casims have raised their level considerably. Above all, Kassim wasn't just shouting his mouth, he was able to really activate [Shield Bash].
"I saw, my [Shield Bash] !? I smashed the sword of the boss's Lizardman General!"
"Yes, I saw! You faced with Lizardman General's martial arts from the front, and your shield that made a match with the great sword! How much does the shield crush the armor even with the dungeon boss opponent?
"Well, no?"
"It's not bad! If you want to brag about it, don't break the shield and let the boss fly with your skill!"
"Hah!"
Although he was active, Casim received a sermon from Talea because his shield broke the shield.
"..."
Vandaloo, also trying to watch out for Kasym, was stuck late.
"Well, that shield was also full of scratches. Since I came to Tarosheim, I've been working hard on the same level as my opponent, so the life expectancy was just around the corner."
Afterwards, I thought that there would be no more preaching to Kasim, who was depressed by Treasure being told by Treasure, and eventually turned to an appeasement role.
"Van-sama, what do you do with such a sweet thing. I think only for this child-"
"Okay, you already know Kassim, right? Kassim?"
"Oh, oh. I'll be careful, Tarea-san."
Kasim remembers the scene of his parents scolding him when he was a child, as Talea and Vandaloo looked. At that time, surely my mother was angry and my father calmed me down.
Talea, who looks only a few years older than herself, and Vandaloo, which is less than half herself, are very uncomfortable.
However, the real age of Tarea is more than 270. The total number of years that Vandaloo has been alive has been more than 40 years.
"Well, when I return to Tarosheim, let's renew the equipment. My sword is also playing Oita."
Fester, who was talking to Zeno that he wouldn't be taking over without Vandaloo's supervision, looked at the sword's long sword.
"Would you like to use dead iron soon?"
"Umm ... I'm sorry, but we still have no idea."
If you drown in a tool that has passed, you neglect your skills. Festers seem to be doing their best with iron and steel weapons for some time.
"So, was there anything that could be used for dungeons?"
"There were no minerals, but they can be found in swamps, but they are fish like catfish, shrimp shrimp, swamp crab, and mud."
"Is it mud?
"Yes. The gray mud and fine grains that can be removed from this part of the dungeon are probably good for beauty."
Mud pack that was on earth. Of course, there is no experience of using a mud pack or mud at Vandaloo at that time, but maybe the same thing can be done?
"Well, is it true?"
"That's good, Talea"
"Sorry?"
"But I told you that baking catfish with a hippopotamus might be better, but how do you bake it with a hippo?
"Speaking of which, I heard from Hannah that there was a monster called Rava Hippopotamus inhabiting the boiled lava ... I wonder if I could bake it with it."
However, Talea was the only woman in the group who was interested in skin beauty.
After all, the four other than Talea have no skin. What you see on the skin is the spirit body.
"Kabayaki takes time, so let's go home. I'm the first to bake myself. By the way, I do not use hippo."
Treasure and Cule are each ranked higher.
Talea is first to rank 4 Ghoul Artisan. Now it ranks up to rank 5 Ghoul High Artisan. The figure did not change much, but a tattoo-like pattern emerged around his arm.
And there is only Artisan (artisan) in the race name, so it seems that there is a correction in production skills.
Kule was upgraded to rank 4 Venom Slime. The body has increased in volume and has turned into a poisonous purple color, but I want to expect further growth.
"Fufufufu, when you return, you'll have to get the ghouls of the profession team leveled up in order to improve your rank."
Treasure is trying to do that, more dexterously and enthralled with a powerful arm. About half a month ago, how much he hated leveling seemed to have disappeared into oblivion.
"Let's be careful and level it. Don't forget to wear the Red Knights, submit a request to the exchange and recruit people to follow you."
"Of course. Van, please do your best to capture the B-class dungeon."
"Once we return, we're looking for new equipment and new party members."
"I'm glad this time there were the Vandalus, but it's hard for us to be alone."
"Oh, do your best. I'm sure they will find a good girl like my Lina."
"It's not like that!"
The dungeon in which Riot occurred, commonly known as Leno's Nest, is located in the back of a cave that Rio had built as a burrow.
"I'll go."
There, Vandaloo, who was attracting the attention of a large number of lizardmen, entered without any particular enthusiasm.
The lizardmen who served "Ringo" skeptically asked, "Are you alright?" They are intelligent and highly social as demons, but they are also within the framework of demons.
If you are not strong, you do not recognize it as a superior or ruler. In his absolute instinct, some have questioned his qualifications as a ruler, as Vandalu did not fight directly against Scales.
He shot and killed the angel of the evil god who gave blessing to the King of Scales (actually God's spirit), and was pressed down, but the body of the angel (spirit) was not physically rolled, so after some time had passed Some people have doubts about their ability.
This is especially true of those who have served "Ringo".
Every time a problem arises, it is only necessary that the bone people and the Black Cow Knights persuade with body language, but if it is repeated too much, it will be troublesome, so Vandaloo will take on a solo as it doubles as their leveling .
Even if it is a solo, as soon as you enter the dungeon and the Lizardman's eyes disappear, Vandaloo will release everyone immediately.
"The dungeon where the true dragon comes out, the inside is big"
"Gisha"
"Even in the same class B, it is different from Varigen Emeizan. The whole interior was mountainous. "
"Sure, it's a mountain."
Princess Revere appears, Pete grows from her body, and Rita and Thalia, which were normally stored in luggage, come out. The volume of the body, the armor, was small, and the two who could fold it up by removing the spirits could easily be brought in.
The bone man emphasized that if the whole body was broken up and swallowed by a large worm, it would work, but this time it was an answering machine because it could be digested.
"Are you all right?"
"Wow, it's okay ... but I'm still used to it."
"Medium, tight"
After Pete, slipping out came Vigaro to Zadiris. There is also Basdia.
"It's okay to parasit insects ... but it's going to be equipped on the van with [insect art] ..."
"Speaking of which, how do you feel inside me?"
"... It's dark and you can't see anything. While parasitized, we can't move, but the insects move and feel like they're crawling over the body ... I can hear the hum. "
"Wow"
It seems that it is a space that is not good for insects or that is uncomfortable for people, not at such a level.
"Well, it's the [insect art]. I guess the insect is the main character. Later, I couldn't hear the sound of the ent or monster plant. You're in another place. ''
"But Eleonora and Luciliano were often willing to equip themselves."
"Certainly. Well, Luciliano wouldn't mind a bit of discomfort if she was motivated to do research."
"Well, wasn't it so bad that insects crawl around?
"How was it? I remember I wasn't very comfortable
"Normal tactile sense ... I lost my body two hundred years ago, so I can't remember it."
"I'm sure you didn't feel good"
Rita, Thalia, and Princess Levia have a quartet without Darcian skin leaning on their heads to get to the story.
The sound of the demon sounded as if it was making a noise.
"It's almost time for the first demons to come, so let's talk about this ... let's start leveling."
Thus, power leveling began in an estimated B-class dungeon that no one had captured for over a hundred years.

Two name explanation: Monster
Two people acquired by those who are feared by many or more powers.
Not only are you simply afraid, but you won't be able to get it unless you have a strange eerieness.
Those who acquire these two names are known to own the two names because they are often executives of antisocial organizations, bosses, monsters who do not know the identity even in the adventurer's guild Be warned. However, in the case of a back society, it may be at a glance. If the owner is a demon, it will be easier to make minions.
Acquisition of these two names makes it easier to attract the attention of those who are afraid of themselves, and also increases the number of beings that are noticed and rubbed in the back society.
In the past, several politicians may have deliberately named two monsters to monitor the behavior of the boss of a criminal organization that has become so strong that it does not matter if the number of minions increases.
