Test period.

Originally, I would have to lock myself in my room and study or practice at the practice range, but I’m not really aiming for the top spot, so it doesn’t matter.

Raising even one more skill level would be more helpful in the future.

[The Ruler of Mana Lv. 2]

Exp : 321/500

[Space Barrier Lv. 2]

Exp : 1/700

It didn’t take long to raise the level of the [Space Barrier].

It’s rather late because I focused on this side after uploading [The Ruler of Mana] in the first place.

[Space Barrier] Lv. The effect of 2 was simple yet effective.

The point is that [Space Barrier] can be deployed anywhere you want.

Normally, it was a one-time barrier used to block an opponent’s attack, but now it can be said that it has more uses.

It’s not just about protecting allies in the lead.

yes, for example.

“Wow… … woah?”

[Space Barrier Lv. 2]

The [Giant Flame Golem] that was about to swing its fist at me, that is to say, the arm of the boss monster on the 12th floor of the Daily Dungeon stopped as if it was caught on something.

This is because the circular barrier created in the air just before the arms were swung erased the kinetic energy.

Furthermore, the [Space Barrier] didn’t break either, probably because it was before he swung it properly in an awkward position.

“It’s good for wizards to have time to prepare.”

this fleeting moment.

If you take advantage of this moment when your movement is blocked, you can use magic that takes some time.

advanced magic

[Pinaka]

The magic arrow pierces the center of the boss monster that has stopped moving for a moment, leaving a trail of light.

[Pinaka] was a magic that was optimized for me, who couldn’t use high-level magic in a normal way.

In the first place, since it was a non-attribute single-target magic, there was no compatibility, so it showed equal performance in all dungeons on all days of the week.

Although it is a daily dungeon where the compatibility between attributes is the main main, if you can push all floors to a certain level with simple firepower, there is nothing like this.

“It took less than a minute.”

In the past, I had to fight for almost 30 minutes to defeat this guy, but this is a huge improvement.

this is growth

“Is it okay if I push it all the way down?”

With this momentum, I’d probably be able to push through to the 18th floor without difficulty.

The goal is to get [Master of Mana] to Lv. raising it to 3.

I’m honestly not looking forward to it.

I know that asking for higher odds is now unreasonable. That’s why I wish they introduced at least half the ceiling.

For every 50 times, one advanced magic is guaranteed… … .

“No, let’s just not get our hopes up.”

It will be easier to empty your mind.

* * *

After getting out of the day dungeon, the sun was setting. The time to come out seems to be the same as in the past.

If I don’t overdo it with the standards I set in the first place, it usually ends at this time zone.

Even if the layer gets deeper, it only indicates the fact that I have become stronger.

[The Ruler of Mana Lv. 2]

Exp : 436/500

And this is its fruit.

Certainly, the drop rate seemed to increase as you went downstairs.

As long as I don’t use [Mana Ruler] or [Wizard’s Cogs], my mana won’t be depleted anyway, so I was able to push as far as I could.

There is no problem with physical strength and no problem with mental strength, so the only thing lacking is firepower.

Originally, it was a daily dungeon that mainly focused on sex relationships, so pushing it this far with [Pinaka], a non-attribute magic, was a good thing.

“Well?”

As I was walking under the sunset like that, I saw a familiar energy.

I was able to notice it in advance because the output of [Contemplation] was high in the daily dungeon just before.

There’s no particular reason to avoid it… … .

“Are you getting around all this time? Oz.”

“Alexios, how can you not deal with that habit?”

“under! You have to hope for what you want.”

Alexios is still feeling a bit uncomfortable.

The last time I lost my house and pushed forward, but I’m not big enough to be friendly with a guy whose personality is so eccentric that I don’t know when a fist will fly.

That’s why I kept a reasonable distance, and the other person seemed to want that too, so I’ve been without any other meetings, but I never imagined that they would come to me first.

“Do you have any business?”

“Didn’t you say something like a parade the other day?”

Just saying the word ＜parade＞ seemed to give a rough idea of Alexios’ purpose.

“… … I don’t recommend approaching the parade hastily.”

Since they only appeared in the second half of the main story in the first place, the balance has collapsed a lot.

In the case of the head of ＜Parade＞, it would be difficult to gauge his potential as he is predicted to be a candidate for the final boss.

“So he came.”

“What?”

“Do you know anything more about them? Shouldn’t you know something to destroy them or get Lena out?”

“No, wait… … .”

I grabbed my head and checked the sudden onset of headache.

Is it true that Alexios is asking me for information? That this bastard was a guy who could think and run into?

But why did you do that to me? You bastard?

“Whoa… … . Let me tell you, I don’t know that much detail.”

“I wonder if you know better than me. Say something.”

I don’t know why you’re so shameless on the subject you’re asking this bastard.

Was that how I looked when I was looking for ＜Tenebris＞?

This is what makes me introspect again… … .

“Yes, because of your personality, the moment I see you, I will run into you, so to speak based on that… … .”

＜Parade＞ had a pretty beggarly pattern even in the game. It wasn’t just that it was hard to avoid attacks or that there was an instant death pattern.

“Wouldn’t it be better not to listen to what they say?”

“As you said, I’m going to run right into it, but does that matter?”

“Surprisingly, it is a problem. Even in battle, they mix lies and deceit, so their faces are twisted.”

“What are you talking about?”

“To put it bluntly, I’m saying don’t anticipate the opponent’s attack.”

That was the thing that bothered me the most when dealing with enemies from ＜Parade＞. This was because there was a considerable gap between the opponent’s attack and the content displayed in the game tooltip.

The pattern itself was also odd.

I wondered if the opponent even warned me to prepare for the wide-area attack that took time to prepare, and it was common for it to be a single targeting instant kill.

You might think of it as simply directing a game, but you won’t be able to overlook it once you’ve seen the twisted faces of these guys.

“In the first place, I want to tell them to stop bumping into them at this time.”

“You don’t think I would listen to such an order, do you?”

“So that’s what I mean.”

“… … .”

I didn’t even expect it.

Since you have a fiery personality, don’t you go around arguing here and there?

Alexios would also know his personality well.

Because you know, you don’t usually go out of the dorm.

“And this isn’t about the parade… … .”

＜Parade＞ is also a strong enemy, but Alexios is not far behind.

Of course, it would be undesirable to leave it like this because you can’t fully grasp the opponent’s potential, but it’s not something I can stop anyway.

So let’s help

“Shouldn’t it be better to save a magic tool just in case?”

“A magic tool? That doesn’t sit well with me.”

“I see.”

“What is this bastard?”

I don’t know why I get angry at things that I myself have affirmed.

“You will still need it. I’ll give you the ingredients, so leave it to Tenebris to make it for you.”

She takes out the materials from the bag-type magic tools she uses when going to and from the dungeon on a daily basis and arranges them.

These are the things obtained from the daily dungeon.

I don’t usually use it, so I just piled it up in the magic tool, but it worked just fine.

“It’s not like I’ll be able to recognize something like this… … .”

“Oh yeah.”

I wasn’t really expecting that part.

What else would I expect from you but violence?

“Tenebris on a branch there. are you listening Come out and answer me.”

Anyway, there was no way ＜Tenebris＞ could not be near Alexios, who was about [Fist King].

Seeing as how he can be seen without much attention in the first place, it seems that he has no particular intention of hiding.

He must have been observing Alexios normally, keeping a distance that would not bother him.

“… … Ahahahaha, I don’t mind calling you in a private place like this.”

The person who appeared in response to my words was a light-hearted girl with bobbed brown hair and black sunglasses.

Of course, I could see beyond the colored glasses, and beyond that, I could see that there were birds of prey like Alexios.

No, not to the extent of ‘same’.

[SR Staring Owl]

Ulla Stillena

because she is a beast

It is probably because I can distinguish things more clearly at night than during the day, so I wear colored glasses like that.

He’s the guy who sniped me in the past.

“You know me, right?”

“Oh, of course! Prince of Oz. Even within Tenebris, you’re famous, so it’s impossible not to know!”

Not only does he make a big deal out of it, but his speech itself is flirtatious, so someone would think it was a first-time meeting.

“I see you’re confident with your poker face? But it doesn’t work for me, so just answer without turning around.”

But it doesn’t work through lies to me who activated [Contemplation].

I can see her eyes fluctuate through the colored glasses.

“Aren’t you the kid who shot me the other day? I think your name must have been ‘Ula’?”

“Ho, did Lucia sell my name to you?”

“No, if I had to question the person who sold you, it would be Noah. Aren’t you proud to be on Noah’s ‘especially close friends’ list?”

Even if it wasn’t for that, as long as it’s a character from the game, I wouldn’t be able to recognize it.

“It’s a strange feeling. Should I love this or should I be sad?”

“You know what to do.”

When I narrowed my eyes and glared at Ulla, she secretly averted her eyes in a cold sweat.

I recognized the fact that my eyes were meeting even through the tinted glasses.

Perhaps the beastman’s instinctive senses told him.

“What are you going to do with me now? omg! Are you sure you don’t intend to kill me?”

“I have no idea what to do. I was just asking.”

They landed two sniping shots at me, but it’s okay because ＜Tenebris＞ paid for it.

“Oh, how can I believe that? With those bloody eyes.”

“Oh yeah.”

It is said that it is severe to feel intimidated by my [Contemplation] because I am a beastman with unnecessarily excellent senses.

Even if it’s just Lucia right now, doesn’t her tail wag when her eyes meet with me in front? It would be easier to understand if you said it’s an owl version.

No, if you think about the serious eyes that look beyond the flirtatious attitude, it seems that she has better sense of crisis than Lucia.

Well, in this case, there is a simple solution.

[Contemplation – Disabled]

Just turn it off.

“uh?”

“Can we have a proper conversation now?”

“what? how… … . how are you… … ?”

However, Ulla rather turned pale and began to walk backwards.

He stutters.

The laid-back attitude he showed just now disappeared like a lie.

[Contemplation – Activate]

He’s a really annoying guy.

I think it would be better to activate [Contemplation] as much as possible and make it shut up completely.

“Ugh?!”

“Then there is no need to talk nonsense, right? He gave me the ingredients and he knows what I need.”

It just repeats one-sided notification.

Ula didn’t answer as if she was frightened, but she’ll probably take care of herself. No, if you’re afraid of me, you’ll have no choice but to do better.

“A rough estimate of what the budget will be will come out, and I’m not asking you for anything difficult, right?”

“Well, then~ Maybe at this price, you can make enough? Yes, I can.”

It’s kind of like seeing something so frightened. I feel like I’m committing a crime because I feel like I’m torturing my child.

“Wait, wait. Oz.”

“… … What?”

As I was pushing Ula for a while, Alexios started talking to me.

What the hell is it? You’re not saying you can’t see me bullying the weak, are you?

If Alexios were to say something unresponsive, I had no choice but to recognize him as my doppelganger and attack him.

“I have no money?”

“… … No money?”

“yes.”

Who is the [King of Fist] of the world?

There is no money for a human weapon that can go out of ＜Skientia＞ at a leisurely time and rake in money with just a few punches?

It’s not like I’m not as good as I am, so it’s not like I can’t go out of ＜Skientia＞ because I’m afraid of assassins.

He wasn’t being chased by assassins day and night, and the assassins he encountered while out for a while were nothing more than a punching bag for someone as skilled as Alexios.

Even if you caught a few monsters and sold them to the adventurer’s guild while getting rid of them, you wouldn’t be short of money.

“Yeah, I’m sure it is, but why is there no money?”

“… … I was expelled from fighting in the Adventurer’s Guild.”

“What the hell are you doing?”

You really are different too.
