At the edge of the twenty-ninth floor, Yuri stopped.
To get back to the upper level, we need to turn around a little bit.
While checking the map on the status screen, she sighed with anxiety.
"Hah...."
"Yuri."
"Uuhhh!? Ah, Mr. Alvin!?"
When I called, I jumped up in surprise.
"Why, why are you here!?"
"Of course, I've been chasing you."
"How can you catch up with the scout with a swordsman!?"I was running almost as hard as I could..... "
Thanks to your level and skill.
If there is a level difference of 20 or more and [Agility rising/medium], the difference in occupational characteristics will also be filled.
When I hold my breath, I open my mouth.
"What happened suddenly?"
……
"The level would have gone up, but this is a hierarchy close to the depths."It's still dangerous to work in solo.I didn't meet them when they came, but maybe some of them are fast-moving monsters. ”
When I say a little blame, Yuri tends to lie down.
"I don't want to bother you guys... my level is too low and my legs are too tight..."
I'll keep my tone down a little bit.
"You don't have to worry about that.There are rare monsters out here, so I'm not really here to take on them.Besides, there's only one more back guard, and neither me nor my tet will collapse, so if you're really upset, you can't go to the party. "
"But... you guys are also meshing with each other's skills, the Adventurer (Player) skills are high, and it feels like there's only one of them... I feel like I'm getting in the way if I'm here..."
"No, no, not at all...."
That's not even a set.
Even though I'm a little confused, I'm telling you to be confused.
"... if Yuri were gone the next time I went to that store, everyone would definitely regret it.Don't let us feel that way. "
"Uhh...."
Yuri shrunk awkwardly for a while, but eventually raised her face a little.
"I see...."
"Okay, let's get back to it."
Yuri laughed slightly embarrassed when I reached out.
"Ahahah, but... oh, before I say goodbye, it's kind of hard to go back..."
"Nobody cares about that.But if you insist, will you two leave the dungeon? "
"... no! I'm going back.I have to apologize to you..... "
Yuri said that and tried to take my hand - at that time.
"Is that...? I don't know what that is."
Yuri suddenly stopped his hand.I'll follow your gaze.
"Ha...?"
There was a bamboo tube in the corner of the road.
It is not a bamboo as an interior of a dungeon.Cut diagonally upwards, its shape resembles a bamboo tube as an item.
However, it's too big.
The diameter is too big for an adult man to hold.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"A monster, huh...? I don't think they'll attack me....."
"... no"
That's when I said no.
The bamboo tube sank on the ground and became invisible.
"Huh. He's gone."
Yuri raised her voice and approached the point where the bamboo tube disappeared.
Driven by a strange feeling, I shouted at Yuri.
"You better stay away from me! I don't know what it is....."
The next moment.
As if Yuri's feet were glowing - his figure was swallowed by a bamboo tube that protruded from the ground.
"Wow, it's Alvin."
The screams that echoed from the inside cut off on the way.
I knew this phenomenon.
----Metastasis.
"Shit...!"
The bamboo cylinder gradually sank to the ground while weakening the light.
Traps, accidents, distress, death - various words come through your mind.
I was lost for a moment.
Yuri!
I jump into the bamboo cylinder, chasing the vanished Yuri.
After a moment, my vision dimmed.
