The big door opened automatically in response to the magic of the person who laid down his hand.As the door slowly opens with a loud sound, we also enter with vigilance.
When all four entered the room, the door automatically closed again.Was it like this? What an old memory, but no. Focus now!
There he is.
At the back of a large room with nothing to block, there was a Magic Beast.It's a chimera in the way I remember it.It looks like a lion, with multiple tails and faces, and a snake's face on the tail.I'm sure you called it Leoger's chimera.
I think it's as powerful as ever, but I'm not more scared than I was then.Is that because I grew up, because I ran into it once, or because I have friends?In any case, I think it would have been good to have settled down in this situation now.
The beast that noticed us immediately stood up on the spot.He seemed to recognize him as an enemy, grunting low and roaring.I was just a little scared about the look. Don't lose, me!
"You must win first, Goo!"
"I know! Just do what you always do, Rune!"
Using Rune's voice as a signal, Goo ran out of sight.Leaving a bee and an electric sound, he's heading straight for the Beast.
As always, there's no hesitation, but it's really great to be able to act calmly in front of strong enemies.Probably because I have confidence that Rune will help me.
As a matter of fact, Rune accurately collapsed the enemy's scaffolding, making it easier for Goo to attack.If I succeed, Goo's scaffolding is likely to collapse, and the area where that is not the case is where the two are good at working together.
Not if you're impressed.I have to do my job too!
Lyokkun!
Ha! Aim for the legs.
I remember what my brother taught me a long time ago.If you're not going to be dealt with in a single blow, it's important to seal off the enemy's movements first.Rune's foot is stuck in the hole, so he takes his foot free so he can't get out of it.
After receiving my thrown seed, Lyok went straight to the feet of the Beast.I don't think you'll have to worry about being trampled because you're a spirit, but I'm a little worried because you're relaxed...! Hang in there!
Regardless of my worries, Lyok approached the feet of the beast without danger, and quickly grew the chicken as he jumped around.The pigeon was caught in the leg of the beast in an instant, and the unbalanced beast fell vigorously as it fell into the hole created by the rune. All right!
Goo!
Oops!
When I scream, Goo runs out in thunder to stab him.I thought I had a magical formation along the way, but a lot of thunderbolt arrows fell directly above the beast. Wow...!
The beast, who had all the arrows of thunder on him, roared.Ugh, it hurts, doesn't it? It hurts.No, don't listen to me!That beast is an individual to be defeated, this is a dungeon.You'll be born again!
Keep an eye on it. This time, we'll see the end of the beast.I raised my face and opened my eyes firmly.Speaking of which, I only noticed the neck before.It is a horrible sight to think of now.
From the part where the lightning arrow hit, the shrub and smoke were rising, and I'm sure if it was a beast other than Dungeon, it smelled like meat burning.I don't know what that smell is because I've never experienced it before.I'm afraid of a dichotomy, but it really hurts my heart to see how my life wears off with this.
One day, I might experience this situation with a real monster.Still, I have to accept that, and I can't be afraid.
While thinking about it, the Beast turned it into particles and disappeared.Does the child who is born many times to be defeated think of something?Though it's not good to think deeply, I think about it. And then I realize.
It seems better to give up consciousness not to think about this!I mean, I'll think about it. If you look away, after all, you won't find the answer, so you'll just get caught up in the loop.
Then what should I do? That's settled.
"Shaw."
"... so I can do it, but is that okay?"
Shaw, who is looking forward to my thoughts, answers with confusion.You're a sweet kid. But I've made up my mind, so I'd like to ask.
I want to know. I wondered what that beast was thinking at the moment of death.Can you tell me the voice of that beast's heart?
"... I see. Um...That beast doesn't think about anything anymore.I accept my role.It's all instinct to attack, defeat, or be defeated by someone who comes, and nothing more or less. "
Shaw said it was "natural" for that beast.Wild monsters and beasts act to live.But the monsters of the dungeon attack when they see people, and when they are defeated, that's the only reason they live.
I felt my heart cool when I heard it.I mean, that's...!
"The same state as the monsters when the Demon King's power ran wild...?"
I wonder what this means.No, no, no, no. Think about it.
"Dungeon monsters and beasts don't have egos."
It's the same as the machine. Just do the engraved instructions.If there is an enemy identified as instinct, act to eliminate it.That's all there is to it.
I don't know, I get it, but I miss it so much.And I can't cut it off, and I can't help it.
Because being without ego is the same as Meg before I stayed.They may also be looking for egos like Meg, perhaps in the depths of their hearts.
"What's the matter, Meg? You have a difficult face."
"Mr. Wyatt...."
Wyatt peeks into his face worriedly, and the twins who look at us with the same worried face meet each other.Ah, it's on your face again, if it's me.
I could have said nothing, but in order to sort out my thoughts, I decided to tell the three of them what I had just come up with.I would like to hear the opinions of others.
Besides, I didn't want to explain why I was worried about you.We're a team now.
"I knew the monsters in the dungeon were different from ordinary monsters, but I never thought about it!"
"You think deeply about things, Meg."
The twins said such a thing with their eyes rounded in surprise.You might think he's a little weird, but I'm glad he didn't pull it off.I'd rather thank you for accepting me favourably.
"Hmm. I've never honestly thought about it either... but maybe the Ortus research team knows a lot about it."
Ah! Speaking of which, Ortus had many brilliant minds!Isn't there someone close to you who can count on you?
Mr. Wyatt tells me that I think Mikolash knows exactly who that is.Hmm, I guess I'll go talk to Mikolash first when I get back to Ortus.
Knowing may help overcome it.I can't do it if I know! It may be, but I can't move forward or backward as it is.Yeah, when I decided to do it, my heart was refreshed!
"Sorry, it's okay now. You know, you beat the boss with just three people!"
Oops! You got a little room.
"We're a pretty good team!Meg's restraint magic was amazing! "
Together, when I return to the subject, Googut and Rune will respond with a brighter expression. I love these two places!
We praise each other for the accuracy and speed of Rune's traps and Goo's attacks.
"Well, I guess none of the three of you have been there yet.Let's keep it tighter. "
Yes, I'm in the unknown world too.That's because at that time, we went from that crystal to the exit.
Red crystal to proceed, clear crystal to exit.If you want to go to the exit because you think it's dangerous, you need to come back here.Ah, you don't have to defeat the boss again.It seems that only clear crystals have been installed when we left this large boss room.
"It's going to be more difficult from here on out, and it's forbidden to be alarmed."
"It's all up to ten levels, right?Hmm, there's still a long way to go.How far can we go today? "
This dungeon is up to ten levels because it's not that difficult, but I've heard that some dungeons are deeper and some dungeons have not yet been discovered at the bottom.
I'm afraid I don't know the bottom.I mean, the undiscovered place doesn't even have the guild.Well, you won't get a chance to go, but I'd like to know what kind of place it is. I'm sorry about the scare.
"I don't want to be impossible.In the meantime, why don't we take a break from the four-tier attack? "
I agreed with Runes on Googut's words. They could fall on four levels.Even if you can afford it, you should take some time to calm down.
"But! If we play together, it'll be four levels in no time!Let's work together! "
Ooh!
But we were sweet.I never thought that the strength of the enemy alone would indicate a high level of difficulty.
It was only a few minutes later that Wyatt, all three of whom smiled meaningfully behind her, would stare at each other.
