The Tutorial Is Too Hard

“What kind of thinking is that? ”

“Whether or not you're thinking about moving to a different city. ”

“Aren't you curious? Tell me, if you soothe the boredom of the overlord, I will pay you a fair price. ”

The Demon King's attitude remained unchanged.

He still looked free.

His attitude shocked me.

I looked down on him and the other demons.

They were born with a strong body and magic, but they didn't have the power to use it.

“Tell me, come on. ”

“Funny thing. ”

“What do you mean? ”

I decided to tell the curious devil.

I don't know if you understand.

Passing through the 35th floor stage, challengers face a variety of opportunities.

There were so many opportunities to regret and frustrate the past.

It also meant that the stages of the tutorial forced the challenger to make numerous choices.

I thought it was a really good stage.

By depriving him of all his power and returning to where he once was, the challenger is deprived of his present self.

As a result, the challenger ignores the results created by the process and again focuses solely on the process.

I regretted my growth and efforts.

If I tried harder, I would have gotten better results if I had steered the growth in some way that I didn't think I would have at the time.

I also regretted my relationship with those I met on stage.

There was a pity that I wanted to do better in the relationship.

There was a regret that I felt that the power I gained in this tutorial was completely mine.

It was a stage that brought repentance to the past that had flowed away while experiencing regression at least as a fraction.

“You don't understand. ”

“I never asked you to understand. ”

The Demon King's eyes were shining brighter than ever.

I wonder if he's interested.

“What about you, then? What do you feel in those regrets? ”

“I don't care. What's past is past. ”

To put it bluntly, the only unpleasantness about the architect of this stage remains.

“That's funny, that's funny. Clearly I feel no remorse in you. It's full of more direct needs. It's really fun."

I asked the Demon King what was so funny.

“I don't think it's possible that you don't feel foolishness in the regretful past. Aren't you curious? Isn't there a question deep down inside? Maybe you're lying to yourself, too. ”

“No.”

“Mwahaha, you have my word. Think again, think again, be sure and question. ”

That's how it goes down.

Even when we met on the 26th floor, this Demon King seems to be more specialized in the psychic system than the Mutufa Demon King.

“Then I'll show you the evidence. ”

“Evidence! Evidence, that really amuses me! ”

Process creates results and finds meaning.

If I had freely turned my powers and erased the results, I could have used them as a process to produce the results.

The journey on stage on the 35th floor was not just a glimpse into the past for me.

As the stage was designed, I did not want to rush to escape as Kirikiri advised.

Being helpless, I didn't want to see all of those things in the past to be meaningless.

In order to make it a test in front of the wall where all the power disappeared, and to jump again, we needed to reclaim it as quickly as possible.

The finish line is here.

The last enemy on the 34th floor who had no way of dodging it, succeeded in casting the Shining Blade in front of the Demon King.

That was the goal I had set when I returned to the first floor.

“Light Sword.”

I wasn't holding a wooden stick instead of a black one, but there was no awkwardness in spreading the sword.

My body was the most powerful weapon of all.

When the flash of light subsided, all I could see was the corpse of the Burning Demon King.

[You have successfully completed the 35th floor of the tutorial, Hell difficulty level.]

[Heals all status conditions and injuries.]

[You won 7,000 points as a Clear Reward.]

[You won 7,000 points as the first clear reward.]

[There are many gods who have a positive reaction to you. You have earned 7,700 points.]

[There are many gods who have a negative reaction to you. 1,200 points will be deducted.]

[Ninety-nine gods of the vaccine are watching you.]

[I am very satisfied with the god of slowness.]

[Gives additional rewards based on play history]

[You won 120,000 points as an additional reward.]

I did it.

I've succeeded in gaining the power to use the Blade in just 24 days.

The process was also demonstrated by proving the results.

That didn't give me a sense of accomplishment.

Just as the Demon King had said, only certain desires rose seizures.

I stood still for a moment and controlled the boiling anger.

Just minutes after entering the stage on the 34th floor, a portal was created up ahead.

I passed all the stages to the 34th floor, so I didn't have to wait for 34 hours.

That's a relief.

Before you leave the stage, review the clear message again.

I saw a message that ninety-nine gods, not all the gods in the vaccine, were watching me.

Why ninety-nine gods?

It's been labeled as all the gods of the vaccine all along.

I have to ask Kirikiri.

The next bizarre thing was a 120,000 point reward.

This was definitely a little weird.

It was a point that had been given a thousand units or a hundred units, and suddenly 100,000 units popped up.

Once I get it, that's what I'm gonna do.

“Status window.”

Other: God of slowness is very satisfied.

After clearing the 35th floor, what will happen to these new skills or stats?

It just disappears.

What I got on the 35th floor wasn't so empty, but I couldn't help but regret it.

After finishing your thoughts, you walk towards the portal.

At that moment, I felt a delicate sensation on my neck.

I felt uncomfortable rather than dangerous.

I felt unpleasant in that look, as if it were natural to be there.

[The penitent god watches over you.]

Was he always watching me like this?

The message of the penitent god who would watch over me at the last moment was like that of the Demon King.

Keep looking back and keep regretting.

That's not funny.

She snorts and climbs up the portal.

When I saw that message, I could no longer feel vanity, loss, or deprivation.

* * *

“A design error? ”

“Yes.”

When I saw the Kirikiri nodding and answering, I felt embarrassed.

“What the hell? Don't you want to explain? ”

Instead of just saying what I learned recently, Kirikiri quickly started speaking because he took away the cake plate.

“This is all because of the penitent god. It's not my fault! ”

The problem was not the explanation of my question, but the avoidance of responsibility.

I asked for a detailed explanation.

“That stone shouldn't have come out now. ”

It was about the Black Stone that the Goblin King handed to me on the stage on the fourth floor.

Kirikiri wanted to explain it as briefly as possible.

Tell me in detail.

“I'd like you to forget about the stone now, if possible. Just in case, don't post it to the community. ”

“You can't tell anyone, right? Is that okay? Is this how you control information? ”

“You got points instead. ”

$120,000 worth of silence.

“Don't be so curious, because you'll find out someday. ”

Kirikiri finishes his sentence and gets back to the cake.

A Goblin King's Black Stone with an unknown power.

The power that flows from that stone remains in my body.

“Not a harmful force? ”

“Not yet. ”

I mean, it could happen someday.

I don't think so, kid.

He took the cake plate and harassed the Kirikiri for more than half an hour, but he repeated only that he could not give a detailed answer.

I didn't get the answer I was looking for, but now I feel relieved to be bullied by Kirikiri.

“Huff... The cake is cold... ”

He mumbles nonsense and laughs as he looks at the Kirikiri eating the cake he took.

The status window was opened.

The sword, error mastery, and supersensory skills were updated when they acquired higher skill levels on the 35th floor.

Reading the long and long status window, it was strange and funny.

I used to complain because it was too short, but now I feel uncomfortable because it's too long.

It was just awkward.

* * *

After finishing the cake, I asked Kirikiri about the God of Repentance this time.

God's information was very expensive, but I wanted to ask this time.

“Deng recommends that you don't mind. There's nothing good about time-related gods interfering with humans. God of repentance, God of slowness, God of slowness. ”

Why do you say the god of slowness twice?

“Moreover, the penitent god is not only of good character, but also of bad character. We deal with time around regret, so we like to dig up someone's weaknesses and secrets. ”

Some of the memories I experienced on stage on the 35th floor hit my head.

“Something like that. So is the Black Stone. Anyway, never mind. The God of Repentance won't be around for a while. ”

I can't believe he hasn't shown up for a while.

Does it have to do with the message that the ninety-nine gods are watching, not all the gods in the vaccine?

“I can't tell you for real. Information related to the system, so it's too expensive. ”

Given that Kirikiri's pronunciation was thoroughly accurate, she was now quite serious.

I moved on to the next question rather than digging around.

It wasn't important, but there was one question I was really curious about.

It was after my visionary poisoning skills on the 17th floor.

At that time, I was unconscious and couldn't get up to the 26th floor.

I woke up a few times with a flashing ritual in the middle.

It was a short time, but I met him again on the 19th floor.

And I couldn't wake up from a coma until the 26th floor after eating something that he had fed me.

“Hang on, it's not poison. Then it's the antidote and the zebra. ”

Thank goodness.

I also thought maybe the feeble one was trying to comfort me by watching me suffer from the poison.

If I had, I would have been really upset.

“It was more about Hou Jae Ae's skills than herbs. Weird Poison Skill. Given your level, you've grown too weirdly. ”

“What are you talking about? ”

Weird looking at other people's skills.

“Since the time of Poison Skill Level 1, is it because it was targeted at the body of the most poison resistant Howoo Jae? Or because it was self-inflicted in the waiting room. There's an ambush in your poisoning skills. ”

“An ambush?”

“Can I explain the nature of the poison? ”

You nod at Kirikiri's question.

I've been using poison skills, but I don't know exactly what kind of poison they are.

He will, too, because my Poison Resistance skill level doesn't reveal its effects.

“Specialized in the unconsciousness and numbness of the senses, rather than the direct threat to life. Of course, a poison that ordinary people would quickly save. More powerful than that to stun and paralyze. Poison traps last between four and five days. Personally, I think it's a set period of time based on the waiting time for the tutorial to repeat. I say again, this is the standard of homosexuality, and normal people die instantly after exposure. At the end of the latency, your body tissue begins to necrotize at a rapid rate. Of course, important areas like heart and lungs. Then you die right there. Antidote seems almost impossible without magic or magical processing. Oh, and it can be passed on through the blood to other people. ”

I don't know……. What is that? I'm scared.

Ceresia was more toxic than HYDRA's venom, and this was a completely human biochemical weapon.
