World Strongest Rearguard – Labyrinth Country and Dungeon Seekers

With Mr. Lyoko, Luisa guides us to the back of the first floor of the 'Green Hall'. There are doors lined to the left and right of the hallway, and those in front are just wooden doors, but only the three in the back are made of different materials, with a black colour.

Is it the same sandalwood as my sling? Although the material is likely to be known in the primary appraisal scroll, I am more concerned that the stone embedded in the door has a familiar shape.

(Was this... some kind of constellation? But there are nine...... I wonder what that means)

"This is the shape that is considered the symbol of the Labyrinth Nation. I haven't been asked what that means..."

"If you're from the upper levels of the Alliance, do you know...?

"Yes, probably. I've also been promoted to District VII official, but I still don't have enough authority to be exposed to confidentiality. I've been given the position of director of the Alliance's library in this seventh district."

Speaking of which, Mr. Serafina said before - that there is a library in the odd-numbered district.

"Mr. Luisa, I'd like to go to that library once, if possible..."

"Yeah, of course it's okay. This means when it's off duty...... I don't have many adventurers to take at the moment, so I think I can make time to show you around. What do you do, Master Lyoko?

"If you don't mind. We have a lot to know, too."

"While some library books are dedicated to the profession of individual, almost all of them can be granted permission to view if they are in the order of Dear Atobe. You can also view confidential materials."

Mr. Louisa smiles and says - but when I say 'secret material', I get nervous remembering the words' trade secret 'and' external secrets'.

"Now, please go inside your room. I'll bring you some tea."

Mr. Louisa opens the door and invites us inside. Only me and Mr. Lyoko are left, and she seems to be wondering where to sit while she looks at the table that gives her an antique feel and shines her eyes.

"Mr. Lyoko, are you interested in this kind of furniture or something?

"Well... how did you know? Yes, I like old furniture. Even when the sequence came first in the Guild of the Eighth Ward, you let me through to a very atmospheric room… I would have wanted this kind of furniture if I could have my own home one day"

"Really... I'm oblivious to this sort of thing, but it's definitely in good shape, isn't it"

I asked lightly, and Mr. Lyoko answers the rap.

Yes, they also went up to 7th arrondissement, which means they're experiencing first place in the sequence in 8th arrondissement.

Even such powerful people are struggling in District Seven - no, they are blocked on the road by the 'Alliance'. Glad we could rendezvous before they stopped for long.

"Oh, you know. Can I ask you one thing? Mr. Atobe, ahead…"

In the middle of what Mr. Lyoko was about to say, Concon and the door are knocked. When I take my seat and open the door, Mr. Louisa comes in, puts the cup on the table and pours the tea out of the teapot.

"Thank you for waiting. Now, as soon as possible, I'd like to ask for your report. May I see your license?

"Yes, thank you"

"Regards"

I give the license on the table - and Louisa looks so nervous that after taking a deep breath with her hands on her chest, she peeked at the license using a monocle.

District 7 Contribution Ranking 255

"... Oh, um... Also, I see a 'star' in the content of the report... So, named, did you run into it again...?

"Yes. A monster like a giant beetle was flying far away, and at first I thought it was a 'faux beetle'... and we didn't think it was named until we got close."

"So you interfered from outside the range where demons are detected by licenses...... I can't believe that's possible... I don't think even adventurers in the Upper District can do that."

"It's amazing... we're just surprised to see it too. I'm ashamed to finally follow you."

"Lady Nutmeg's party was mainly knocked down by two grand malls, wasn't it? Dear Atobe was in charge of engaging with the rebellious beetle... then the allocation of contributions will be greater for Atobe. I think each of the members has their own sequence up as well. First of all, Dear Atobe, you're going to reach double digits quickly... many of you can't reach this point after coming to 7th Ward, but you really..."

With about 39 sequences up, can I say I jumped up again? In doing so, there will still be many searchers among the population with sequence first place as the leader.

"How much contribution should I make in a single exploration to get the sequence up from here? I want you to know as a criterion when deciding whether to withdraw."

"That's right... because if you're a better seeker than the Atobes, you're also exploring regularly to maintain or build up your contribution. I think with 1,000, the sequence will almost certainly go up. 500 would mean maintaining the status quo."

This means that my sequence has risen so far, which also means that it is difficult for most parties to maintain without even negatively contributing.

"Our party had four people lined up from 2548th, but with us this time around, we also got about 900 contributions for defeating the namesake. Thanks to this, the sequence is also up to 1983."

"Congratulations. A thousand in a single exploration can also be described as a very good achievement in District Seven. Dear Atobe, when various conditions engage, they make an even greater contribution… I still think that 2410 at the stage of warming the engine is a breakdown"

During the stampede, a number of 5060 was earned, but that was an emergency, so it's a big deal that we were able to defeat many demons. Normally demons are never that dense, so it would mean it would be hard to make even 1,000 contributions, as Luisa would say.

(50 in one Grand Mall...... If you don't have a confidence bonus, you need to knock out nearly 20 even if you add something extra by leveling it up. Well, don't struggle.)

And defeating all the miscellaneous fish to earn a contribution cannot be done in the demonic habitat density of today either. A delicious hunting ground brings people together, and people who try to monopolize it come out and take it from each other.

or neglected hunting grounds, there is a reason to be distant. There are also many distant labyrinths in this 7th arrondissement - many of those promoted from the 8th arrondissement eat the stoop, so it is considered that there is a risk that we do not yet know.

"... Mr. Louisa, I heard that the number one sequence in District Seven right now is to create something called an 'alliance' and monopolize the hunting grounds. As a guild, how do you see the situation?"

"Did you also ask Mr. Atobe? As for solicitation in the ground floor lobby, it should not be against guild rules, but it may also be monitored by defensive soldiers if solicitation is prolonged. Explorers called for stronger participation, especially for parties with more women, and there have been complaints against the Alliance."

Gray - the guy with the gray hair, who was soliciting 'Four Seasons'. The name comes up and Mr. Lyoko's expression is obviously cloudy.

"... those people are the # 1 group in the 7th Ward, right? If I get promoted, will they all fall out?"

"I can't reveal much information about other parties, but their activities will affect all those searching for first place, so let me explain them as far as I can without obstacles. First of all, the name of their alliance is' Alliance for Freedom (Beyond Liberty) '. The captain is" Roland Vorn, "and the deputy captain is" Daniela Vorn. "

"Vorn...... the same last name means are those two family members?

"Yes, you are married. Mr. Roland is on the" Airborne Division (AirTroop) "and Mr. Daniela is on the" Doctor (Doctor) "job"

Occupations when you enter a labyrinth country are not accepted no matter what you write. In other words, they will both have experienced in their previous lives or a position of aptitude - if you are referring to the former Airborne Division, the flesh would have been forged from the beginning.

And doctors - except for the healer (healer) teacher, who was still enough to see a nurse (nurse) person, but he still makes me confirm that there are people coming to the labyrinth country with all backgrounds.

"Mr. Roland was exited through District VIII for a short period of time, but was ill at the time he came first in the sequence in District VII and was cured for a while. I recovered from some of my wife's treatments, but after two years of therapy, the sequence fell to the bottom, and now I'm just back in first place again. Even though there was a blank, it still maintains level 7 and has the highest class strength in District 7"

"It's not easy to get up to District Six, even if you're so tough..."

"Yes, the promotion exam involves luck as well... defeating three Level 6 or higher 'named' in the labyrinth of District Seven, and a leader's contribution of more than 2,000 in a month is a condition for promotion"

(Regardless of your contribution... level 6?

At the same time as me, Mr. Lyoko seems to have noticed, and I'm going to look at this one like I'm confused. And she told Mr. Louisa instead.

"Mr. Luisa, the 'named' I ran into today was level six...... our party hasn't been able to contribute much, but can we count it in the promotion terms?

"Yeah, of course. Congratulations, two more... no, it shouldn't be easy. Given the difficulty of encountering and defeating namesakes… but also the feeling that if you are Atobe"

As she guides us, Louisa shows off her anxiety, or she behaves modestly.

I'm not going to rush or force you to go up to District Six. But if a person named Roland is in a hurry without being able to encounter 'named' - that's a little less of a concern.

"I see... you mean we're all here to help someone named Roland earn 20,000."

"I can think of it that way. It would mean that after only Mr Roland's party has gone up to District Six, he will take turns focusing his contribution, one party at a time. That's not what's often done."

"I learned. I think we're going to do it in a way that's close to it."

"Huh... Mr. Atobe, is that okay? We've just met and it's very helpful to just cooperate and explore, but we can't be bothered that much..."

Mr. Lyoko panicked and waved his hands away. The front of the bore coat opens on that clap, and the competitive swimsuit underneath - and when I look at it again, it's a very uncomfortable outfit.

"Ah... su, sorry. I don't have a zipper here, so I just fasten it with a button... I'm annoyed when I fasten it, so I often take it off... Could it have been possible?"

"Yes, no, that's not true. Excuse me."

Buttons made of material like animal horns, fastening the coat, are fully open. When I walked around town, I kept my front, but I didn't know I was going to even remove it indoors - surprisingly bold.

"Master Atobe likes those bathing suits... I'm in trouble, I wonder if you can get these in the town store..."

Mr. Louisa is taking notes in the notebook, but what can I say? Every time I react to a swimsuit, I feel like the women around me are mistaken.

I'll see if it's going to be any big deal one of these days, but that's not going to happen with everyone equipping me with swimsuits to show me, etc. I'm not going to explore every day, have room for water play in it, etc. Although the name of the labyrinth seems to be suitable for swimsuits, such as "The Beach of Setsung".

"In that case, should I have a bathing suit..."

"Eh... A, Dear Atobe, did you hear me? Sorry, if I..."

"Mr. Atobe, do you have any experience swimming? Well, if it's okay with me, if it's coaching, I'd love to..."

A very attractive suggestion, but as there was a water field in the labyrinth, is there a hippo or something swimming?

- If you ask me if I can swim somewhere safe, I can't deny it. Not only do we dive into the labyrinth on stoke, but we do need to breathe.

But, Mr. Luisa, Mr. Lyoko - and Mr. Fifty Storms, if I had all the people in swimsuit who normally have difficulty in wearing clothes but pointed me in the eye, would I be calm?

"Dear Atobe... what is it? That's right, it's a problem for me, the guild staff, to be with you on private business…"

"Yes, no... that's perfectly fine though. If you get a chance, I'd love to be with you. Before I was reincarnated, I was taking a breath between jobs, borrowing a gym pool and swimming."

"If that's the case, the basics seem to be about you already...... then I'll teach you the applied part. I also have to look for something to replace the beat plate...... heh"

Why is there something oddly colorful about it when it just seems like fun? Luisa and Lyoko now had a soothing laugh about where the first confrontational mood had gone. I was optimistic that we would get along if we did talk, but I didn't know we could crack it this fast.

"Well...... if you don't mind, I'd love to be with you when I get the chance"

"Yes. By the way, Mr. Louisa, can there be a labyrinth where it's imperative to go underwater?

"Yes, there is. However, there are very few explorers who can get in the water, so there are still many untouched labyrinths at present. Some of you will be exploring those places specially."

I wonder if some people are in a profession called 'Diver'. One day I dreamed of diving in Okinawa, and as far as I'm concerned, as long as I could get ready to go underwater, I'd be attracted to it.

◆ ◇ ◆

Luisa said she would rendezvous with the dining room after work, so she was taught about the 'box store' in District Seven once she broke up.

Three red boxes and two wooden boxes. I'm also looking forward to what I got in District VIII, but the boxes in the new District raise even more expectations - even considering the strength of "The Beetle of the Rebellion," one or two of the magic gear seems to be in there.

"We were told that we rarely had a chance to open the box… it was also a normal box so any box store could open it"

"There are also differences in the difficulty of opening boxes. In the Eighth Ward, I asked Amazing Box Shop."

"Really, I've always found the box... it's really amazing. Once we found it, we jumped up and were happy... it was almost money that came out of it. One demon stone came out, so I could fortify Kaede's shoes."

"Oh, do you have shoes... I see. So that intense step in speed was also the power of the demon stone on the shoe."

Talking about that, I'll check the license indications and head to where everyone is waiting - then.

The current location of the companions is a short walk from the "Green Hall," a corner of the street lined with shops. It was labeled 'Boutique Corleone' there. Theon doesn't seem to be able to get in the store, he's sitting down and leaving a voicemail - he barks small only once when he sees me, shakes his tail patsy, so I'll stroke his head.

"Does boutique mean everyone's shopping inside?"

"Ah... excuse me, Mr. Atobe. I have something I'd like to buy, too, so I'll go for a little bit. Once we find those kids, we'll make a quick shopping trip back."

"Yes, you go...... hmm?

I was going to wait in front of the store, but a clerk-like neutral person - wearing makeup, but probably a man - came out and spoke to me.

"Oh, there you are. I keep the men, too, but you want to see them? I'll coordinate with you to make sure you're not ashamed of where you put it."

"Yes, no... Um, is this the clerk here?

"Yeah, it's Corleone, the shopkeeper. You don't have to worry, because I take care of the female clerks for those guys. Atashi is only interested in dressing men."

"Ha ha... I'm well, I don't really care about the outfit... whoops!

Suddenly I get a gasp on my shoulder. I have cut my hair very briefly and my physique is totally man, so I have something quite scary when Mr. Corleone approaches me.

"... all I don't know is who I am, right? Those guys are in trouble too."

"Uh... what are you talking about?

"Nothing. You have the money, don't you? I'll sell you a suit of the current and nearby moulds. I'm glad you found someone to wear them, because they're all wearing boneless armor in Labyrinth Country. The man who can do it is a suit, don't you think?

He was a thick figure, but I could unexpectedly circle with a store that didn't change all the time and would make a spare for the suit that was coming in one piece. I guess everyone is buying all the clothes they need too, so I'll try to sweeten them to your word and get a new suit.

"What... Kyo, Kyoka-san, what is it, you get a rash on your head"

"Eh... oh, you don't sound very loud. You're not much different from Ibuki, are you?

"Oh, no, I'm no match for Mr. Kyoka, haha..."

"It's distracting, so keep that to yourself. Relax. You can't choose."

"Like Mr. Ellie, we should use something that doesn't inhibit movement as much as possible. Caede, you shouldn't choose something too flashy."

"Wow... of course, look what's so flashy. Oh, I don't care who you show it to... Oh, really?

"... I'm not going to be choosing anything else that won't inhibit you. Anna, don't observe me too much."

When I go into the suit fitting room, I hear the conversation in the store coming from somewhere. Even if I didn't clear my ears, I could hear even more conversations from other members.

"Hmm, not really cute...... oh, this might be good. How's Tin?

"I don't know why, but I can't wear regular underwear... oh, I also sell what I can use properly. Good......"

"Mr. Teresia... Won't you put it on? No, you're going to lose shape. But this suit fits perfectly, so I guess it's okay..."

…………

Imagine the difference between what you can equip by your profession - and I shake my head. And I fastened my new tie, praying not to bowl in with everyone when I got out of the fitting room.
