10 10 I think that work is something that can be achieved by accumulating.txt (1/2)

Oh, come on, fantasy.

Stepping into the square and closing the entrance behind you is good, no, not good, but it's to be expected .

'You need to be a little more careful, this is something I wasn't expecting.

The staircase was built into the wall as if to repel intruders, which is to be expected.

But .

”An army of hovering spheres, yes?　Royalty.

This time, since it came with a tree, a standard stone golem will appear, or if not, it will be just a small or large discrepancy in my expectations, but my expectations were completely betrayed by the ejection of a ball the size of a bowling ball into the air.

”If this is a suicide attack, I'm going to be stuck, aren't I?

Looking at the blatantly spherical shape of the object, I can only think of one use for it .

Like a mine floating in the water, if you see it not attacking, it looks like a self-destructing, suicide attack, tackle-type bomb demon, like the Blood Species in Woodpuppet.

When I think I have to do something about it, I feel like the mentality is more important before the technical stuff.

”Lock on?

And it seems that the time for observation over here is over .

After it appeared, the flickering spheres flashed at uniform intervals, as if to identify us, but gradually the intervals became faster and the blue-white light covering the spheres transformed from blue to red like a signal lamp.

''A pinball?!''

His arm was moving before he could avoid it.

'Heavy!'

With a definite response, something bursts out and explodes

'It's too hard for a single layer of closure, isn't it!

Considering it was a counter-brave dungeon, this much might be necessary, but I wanted to scream that this was somewhat out of line with the budget .

As expected from its appearance, as expected, the suicide attack with mines, and the ricocheting around at random using walls, floors, and ceilings to see if it won't explode if it doesn't hit the enemy, is going to be swallowed up by the momentum in the blink of an eye if we don't handle it calmly.

There's no time to move around and duck.

I won't be moving carelessly when it's bouncing around all over the place.

It's safer to sit down and strike with him.

Fortunately, your eyes and arms are still moving fast enough to catch up with them and the mineral tree is harder than your opponent.

With each shot, sometimes with my feet, sometimes with my feet, sometimes back like a target, and sometimes with my feet and wrists, I use my footwork and wrist returns to knock down the growing sphere.

Even if we don't move, the sphere flies from there, saving our energy.

But it's as if it's going to take all that savings away from you, and it's going to keep on coming at me.

”Ugh.

However, you attack and intercept them, concentrating more and more, but then you make a mistake.

The one you failed to deal with explodes nearby, and fragments fly into your body. Then, as if it was aimed at, a sphere comes flying in from the surrounding area at once.

This is not good!

It's posture is broken, and it's hard to intercept it completely.

If this continues, the sphere will come rushing in like a carpet bomb and in no time my place will be the center of the explosion.

And then we won't have to think about the rest.

If I thought for one second that I was done for good, I could feel my strength slowly drain away.

It took me longer than I thought, but that's as far as I go.

Fortunately, my body is magically made of magic, and there is pain, but that's a matter of luck.

If I had the guts, I wouldn't have to deal with the pain of the explosion.

As annoying as it sounds, that's a dead end.

And I'm beginning to believe that there's no way.

”Kaja.

Apparently, the rational part of the mind and the emotional body are two different things.

'Don't lick it!

For a moment, I thought my mouth had loosened, and then the voice came out as if it were bubbling up from the pit of my stomach .

What about this situation?

He lost his posture when he got hit by the explosion, but on the contrary, that's about it.

That's a crazy idea.

We're in trouble because we're out of control, but you can't stop laughing at your naive thinking and saying that's all there is to it.

''That was ten thousand times harder than that time!

There was poison, paralysis, gravity, physical punches, hypnosis, stench, vision obstruction, chambered swords, and the occasional ranged magic, all of which were deadly.

A hit or two would only hurt you, but there was still room to resist.

Before you can break through, you need to regain your strength and search for your next action within the time limit amidst the quickened thoughts and slowed scenes.

Certainly, there are grounds for saying that's about right, but now, how do we get around this situation?

Think about it.

Kaha!　Excellent!

In the end, I didn't think of it.

But a suicide kamikaze attack was enough to break my heart.

'I've stepped on plenty of occasions to die!　If you want to destroy me, then go ahead and try to destroy you too!

Well, at any rate, it's just that the more you put your all into it, the faster you think about it.

I'm going to kill you.

I think about what I'm screaming at the inanimate objects, but I'll put it aside for now and kill these airborne bastards .

That the sadist didn't even have time to run away barefoot and pass out from the instructor with a vicious grin that slammed me to my core.

Kill him before he kills you.

It was as if the instructors had taken over to do it, and I was smiling naturally.

”Kukku, I'll take care of it.

Laughter is something that can come out naturally, even at the last minute.

A situation that you thought was hopeless is just a matter of tying yourself up in a bind, and it is easy to get out of it if you are open-minded.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most of it.

”Kukuku ka ka ka ka ka ka ka ka ka ka, ahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

As if to pronounce that it's our turn, I feel like I'm slowly expanding my territory just by stepping in.

There's a phenomenon called a runner's high.

It is a mental high that makes you want to run forever, as the more you run, the more excited you become.

You're smiling before you know it. I wonder where I was when I was so frightened before.

And there I am, staring at me calmly. The tension is high, but my vision is clear.

My body is hot, my heart is racing, my blood is rushing through my body in a torrent.

But my spinal cord is reacting sharply to my body, and my mind is calmly contemplating the situation.

My head and body are at odds with each other, and my current situation has reached its highest potential.

It's not enough.

At this speed, it's still too late.

It's not enough.

I'll still be beaten by this kind of power.

It's not enough.

You won't be able to kill them with one shot this sharp.

It's not enough... There's too much to kill these things.

There are still too many to count, and more to come!

'Come on!　Quickly!　Quickly!　Fast!

You need more hands, think, be more efficient.

Cut back on everything, change your position, we don't need to be at this end of the line.

We could take it down more efficiently if we moved into a denser area, into the center.

Yes, this is as far as we've come!　I ain't going to lose!

Vent Venting resentment, create a storm, overrun.

Everything's good.

I feel like I can see things I shouldn't see.

I feel like I can see where they are, as if I have eyes on my back.

Well, maybe it's just my imagination!

Still, the feeling of swinging and hitting is pleasing, as the accumulation of the past seems to be answering, and it makes me even more efficient.

We've come so far, I'd like to get as far as I can.

It's more like a discard than a cut.

It's more like a link between them.

It's as if I'm in a killing ritual, my every move is in order, and then the other side is flying toward me as if to match me.

This is despite the fact that we're in the center of a dense enemy stronghold.

Is it a charade?

I was being pushed back gradually and to regain my shape, a sting grew on the ball.

The sting is sharp, and I can easily imagine that it would pierce through my armor like paper.

Fortunately, it didn't bounce and pierced the ground, but there's no way a variation that would be fatal just from a body hit would be an advantage to me in this situation.

''So what's the point?''

There's no way that's a plus.

But I cut it off and threw it away.

On the brink of killing or being killed, and at the last minute when we would lose if we couldn't respond, we had no right to despair.

Listen Jiro, fear is a sensor. But despair is nothing more than a weight. I'll make sure it's ingrained in your body.

”Yet it is fear that we teach fear, never despair.

Yeah, I understand what the instructors were saying during training now.

That's for sure.

Fear tells us where and how to be a threat.

Back off and you dodge, or swing and you're cut off.

Fear is like a drug that helps us do that.

”Feed on fear.

As the words slipped out of my mouth, I felt my body fill with a sensation that made all the extra strength drain out of me.

The sensation of having fear on my side gradually made my blows quicker and quicker.

I sliced through the bomb as if I was enjoying it, and one became two, then three, then four, and the number of pinball golems I had to kill kept increasing.

Before you knew it, time had flown by and the battle was over when you cut down the last one and detonated it behind you.

”Woosh, hard fought!

It wasn't a complete victory.

I got blasted so many times, soot all over my body, flying debris and cuts all over, and I tore up my bandages.

d*mn it, I don't want to eat. I don't want to move.

Even when you are young, you unconsciously put a stopper on your body when you do something reckless, or you feel a big reaction when you move with all your strength.

I heard it's true that what you could do when you were young, you can't do when you get older.

Good night.

I carried the peak on my shoulder and plied the overworked mineral tree.

They say it's a living metal.

The last thing I want is to have to drag it across the floor in case it gets bent at the navel.

Your floor's crushed.

And when I reached out for a smoke, the box of cigarettes was warped and crushed wonderfully by the mixture of the blast and the rolling around and everything.

It was obvious that it could be torn off if you pulled on it in a normal way, so I struggled to take one out and smoked it.

''Should I be relieved that nothing was left behind after the explosion and I didn't lose my foothold, or should I lament that the explosion wiped out all the loot, I don't know which expression I should wear.

By the time I'm halfway through the smoke, my calm thoughts make me take action to look around, but the merits in the process and the results make my face fixate with a look of dismay .

Well, of course, I'm prepared for the deficit, and I'm glad to have made it through, but I'm going to gorge on my pickings today just for comfort. Yeah, I'll have jerky instead of squid, and I'll eat a bag of jerky that costs a thousand yen.

In the end, the cash I lost in the process formed more of an expression than the safety I won in the outcome .

Feeding on the rank up of my usual dinner snacks to inspire myself, I decided to collect the few remaining magic stones and climb the stairs .

''I should be able to get out now, but it's a relentless fantasy .

But somehow, just to be sure, I climbed the stairs slowly without making a sound of footsteps, but it seemed to be the right decision.

I wonder where the word ”safe zone” has gone, as the battle area is still firmly set up after the boss battles, it's just like a dungeon.

Although it looks like the types are the same as the first layer, the number is different.

In addition, with the mid-boss Wood Golem, the level of the game has been raised steadily.

Is it even possible to use it with the demons around?　Well, it's not going to happen. But I'm willing to bet on the hope that I can. It's about time you got to the beer and you're not complaining about it, me today.

A device with a sphere that looks like a crystal on a waist-high pillar installed near the wall in the opposite direction from the stairs as if it were a way out, and if it's as taught in the classroom, if you touch it, it should be able to transport you through a few seconds of time lag to escape.

If you think it's normal, there's no way you can use it when there's something dangerous around.

So it makes a natural choice of action.

”Let's just try to be a little more friendly, dungeons.

It's only natural that a dungeon to intercept a brave man would never create a safe area to cover the other side.

But I wanted you to feel a little better about your current situation, where you were exposed to explosion after explosion after explosion.

Stifling a sigh, I grabbed the hilt of the mineral tree.

At this point, it's like the feeling of giving up, reopening up, and going to work with inertia.

'Daaaaahhhh. ！！！！　God d*mn it... ！！！！

And then he charged in, feeling that his desperation to take it out on them was somehow similar to how he felt when he was busy working.

'Um, are you okay?'

'If you're okay with the fact that you broke through the hierarchy alone, then I thought maybe you'd be okay.

I escaped safely.

After three reinforcements, the first battle on the second level of our assault finally came to an end.

I managed to activate my escape device, the transfer station, and went to the entrance of the dungeon and then to the infirmary to heal myself when I bumped into Suela.

”Did you break through the first layer all by yourself?

Yes, that pinball was stunning, as expected.

Are you hurt? Or rather, if you look closely, you're covered in injuries all over your body!

I'm not sure if you're more upset about the injury than the injured party, but I'm glad you're honestly worried about it .

...... Honestly, I'm exhausted. To be specific, as much as I'd like to punch that me who didn't turn back then, well, it's still better than the instructors' training, so I thought I'd be fine if I went to the medical office.

The fact that the training is harder than the actual battle may be a good countermeasure, but I think it's wrong somehow .

But that's why we're still here, so I can't complain.

But it seems that I chose the wrong words.

In the infirmary?　You're that badly hurt?　Do you need a shoulder to lean on?　Where's the gurney?　It's faster than that, with levitation magic, no, it's faster to move directly with transfer magic.

I was going to reassure her that there was no medicine for her, so she'd just get some light treatment and everything would be fine, but she thought I was seriously injured.

Well, we'll put that aside for now, but for now, I want you to calm down.

Maybe it's because I'm good at my job, or maybe it's because I can do my job, but the people around me are looking at me too much.

Maybe it's because of her notoriety, or maybe it's because of her bad reputation, or maybe it's because her response is seen as favoritism.

In addition, Suela's appearance also makes the eyes of the guys hard to look at.

”No, you don't have to go that far. I can walk.
