Day 58 – Afternoon, Dungeon 70F
『Jotun Lv70』, a frost giant from the Norse mythology. A spirit of nature and an ice giant of extraordinary strength, who also happens to be the boss or the ancestor of trolls as some theories say. And he is apparently delicious.
No, the legends had nothing on the taste? Frost Giants are usually not for eating? Well, even though it is being devoured right now… Seems to be delicious?
(Jiggle Ji~~ggle~)
Oooh? It’s in high spirits, and bouncing in delight. Seems very happy.
I was surprised when it froze the floor with a wave of cold air, but I can walk on air with 『Air Walk』, Armored Pres-san can just slice through, wave of cold included, and naturally, Slime-san devoured that chill without being picky.
Then, the giant that wielded a spear of ice had the hell beaten out of him. His physical ability is surpassing that of the pres and the others whose level is over 100. His strong, fast, and tough physique is wrapped in mana producing an oppressive cold aura, and clad in armor of ice. His ability is easily rivaling that of a level 100 dungeon master, and if taking only strength in consideration, his terrifying might could even be eclipsing it. But that’s all.
No, he’s really strong? But, look, even if he can rival and surpass a Lv 100 dungeon master? Dealing with two Lv 100 Dungeon Emperor Class opponents is too much. Yeah, that’s just impossible?
She must be an envoy of beating that brings beatings to all people, an angel of beating. Even though she is an angel, she’ll probably bring equal beatings to gods as well, the evangelist of beatings. To put it simply, she’ll beat the hell out of anything, to put it in a more complicated way, her existence itself is the Beating? Well, in either way the beating is inevitable. One might even say that she is a goddess of beatings. While at night she is the goddess of beauty and eros, I worship her every night so there is no mistake about that. I’m also sucking and licking her too, so it’s certain.
But I finally feel like I was able to 『Magic Wrap』properly, I might’ve even been moving normally in the previous fight? HP also hardly decreased. Previously, my body couldn’t withstand being forcibly moved with 『Magic Wrap』, so I was constantly losing HP. But it felt like it went smoothly this time. I finally grasped the form?
Well, evening after evening I was enduring beatings called 『Practice』, and at night, was taking my revenge, even going as far as to use 『Magic Wrap』. Finally, the effects of that might’ve begun showing. Or maybe it’s the effect of me evading Armored Pres-san’s attack for some time now? I mean, I might’ve touched her butt, but it’s only an armor? But that armor is so lewd! For a highschool boy this is a trap! I mean, the hipline is so sexy… Whooooa! Yeah, I definitely can keep the wrapping up. No, that’s not what I meant! How should I put it, a sudden impulse, or maybe a highschool boy-like sincerity, or maybe a highschool boy spirit? So it couldn’t be helped? Wait. Yes, I’m sorry. Why do you have a morning star? Eh? I left new goods lying around, aaah~, I forgot about that~, wait, ah, that’s my bad!
We were acting as a group a lot, so in a way it couldn’t be helped. As expected, there is no way I can do that in front of the girls, that’ll definitely send me on an extra-large sermon course with a side of trial for sexual harassment, a luxurious and gorgeous scolding spiral away. For some reason, I’m always Away, regardless if it’s in our world, or in this world, just where is my Home?
Just as I thought of going down, Slime-san brought magic stones, those are pretty good.
High-grade magic stones are too expensive, so selling them is difficult, but if turned into items they can produce nice results, hence they are a great part of equipment manufacture, and if I have a surplus, they can serve as mana batteries inside the Item Bag, so no matter how many we’d find they will be put to a good use. As I thought, dungeons seem highly profitable after all. No matter how I think about it, a war is a highly unlucrative endeavor. If you have that much combat potential then go and hit dungeons. Good grief.
Oh, a spear.
Even though it’s a drop from the frost giant, it’s of a normal size, how nice. Moreover, 『Spear of Eternal Ice – PoW SpE DeX 50% Up, Ice Attribute Affinity Increase (EX), Ice Spear, Ice Shroud, Freezing Cold Seal, +ATT』, it’s on the level of gear that the geeks make on freak accidents, and this is even before I upgraded it with mithril. On top of that, it seems easy to use, while it’s a spear, it has a blade of about the same length as a halberd, so in a way it’s close to a halberd too. Slash, stab, cleave, strike, any form of attack will work, I should pick a buyer for this one myself. The candidates are either Bitch Leader or the girl with braids from the librarian’s group? Errm, she is from the handicrafts club.
I got taught quite a bit by the Handicrafts Girl about lace, knitting, and sewing, so I’d like to favor her, but Bitch Leader clearly has a greater aptitude for it. Well, any bitch would be able to master it, but her name is Bitch Leader, so she has to be the top dog.
Now, let’s actually go down this time, and test 『Magic Wrap』, if I can’t raise my level then improving the technique is the only way. I knew that I would be overtaken by my classmates, but becoming a burden is not something I’d want, you know? Well, even though I was cheating from the very beginning since there was no chance I could keep up with them, in this case, I have to make something even more crafty.
That’s why after 『Magic Wrap』comes 『Kyojitsu』, and I need something beyond that too. There is no end to this, but I have no intention of giving up. I mean, were I to give up I’d definitely get 『Kept Man』in my titles! The current three are enough to bring me to the point of tears, if I get that fourth one there is a real possibility that I will cry for real, I might stop ever checking my status after that? Seriously?
Went down.
The 71st floor had snakes. I’m pretty good with snakes, but these are 『Flare Snake Lv71』, I doubt they’ll go into hibernation if I freeze them, so this is a perfect opportunity to practice 『Magic Wrap』. With the floor entirely covered in snakes and even the air filled with them as they threw themselves at us, creating a world of nothing but snakes, I tread through it, where I had no room, I created it by cutting my way through. Finding a gap of about one foot size, I step there with a sweep, annihilating the surrounding enemies with a simultaneous swing.
The result. While the wrapping is working, I don’t have a mastery of it. It’s somehow somewhat working with all of the skills wrapped in a disarray. In this case, there is less worrying about self-destructing, however, since I can’t manipulate each individual skill, my movements are unpredictable even to my own self. Control is still far out the reach, but well, if I can manage to control『Teleportation』and『Gravity』even for an instant it can exhibit Cheat-like performance. It might be too much, but I have no other choice but to keep trying.
But『Kyojitsu』while using『Magic Wrap』is still terrible, a single mistake and I can easily lose an arm! Well, it’s fine since it will『Regenerate』, I’d rather bear pain than become a burden.
…I finally began to slightly understand why pres and the others are so desperate, indeed, being protected all the time while unable to do anything yourself is unpleasant. And it would be even worse if those protecting ended up dying on top of that. There is nothing more aggravating than sitting in a safe place while others are exposed to danger. I finally got it.
Well, they won’t be able to do anything more today though, their eyes were dead.
Even so, they managed to defeat a floor master on the 60th floor, so they’ll have to be content with that. That’s why I sent them back. 『Jotun Lv 70』 is too dangerous. If stopped by the initial『Ice Bound』, they will be in trouble. I won’t say that they couldn’t beat it, but it would be far from just difficult, and the worst could easily have happened. It’s better if we handle this. And we don’t want to deal with flies. Seriously.
「Hidden Room-san, where are you~? Well, I know the exact location but I’m at the age when one sometimes wants to explore? Probably? I’m doing lots of experiencing and exploring, enjoying deep dives into the mysteries of Armored Pres-san at night, but I also want to explore dungeons too, of course, I’m still doing night time dungeon dives (eros), going in and out, in and out, but… Really? I’m in trouble?」
(Jiggle Jiggle…)
Looks like I’m in trouble. I seem to have stepped over the line, and there is a demon with a morning star behind me. I mean, Slime-san is terrified, time to run! 『Teleportation!』
I got beaten up.
A repeated super short distance teleportation with Magic Wrap. Appearing for a split second only to immediately blink away, but even with this instantaneous high speed movement method I still couldn’t escape the beating? As I thought, she is none other than the Goddess of Beating. This calls for another night of worship and ecstasy.
While getting beaten up, I reached the hidden room, and thanks to the『Flare King Snake Lv 71』that was there I was saved from the Armored Pres-san beating, that was now directed at the Flare King Snake. I lock eyes with the Flare King Snake as it is being destroyed by the vicious morning star pounding. I’m sure that at this moment we are on the same wavelength with our hearts united by the same thought. That’s scary!
「As expected, this is another one from the equipment destruction series, huh? It’s a shield though.『Mirror Greatshield – ViT PoW SpE DeX 50% Up, All Resistance Up, Physical and Magic Reflect And Absorption, Weapon and Equipment Destruction, Absolute Boundary, Super Shield Bash, +ATT + DEF』, isn’t that amazing? That’s already a weapon. This is reserved for tanks~.」
(Nod Nod) (Jiggle Jiggle)
The Geek Guardian has『Great Sweeping Blade』, so he can wait, plus he is a geek anyway.
The Pres who was in the middle of changing to a tank is now an admirable Pres-sama with a pinch of M thanks to obtaining『Chain Whip of Savage Lightning』.
Well, it should go to either Shield Girl or to the Twin Lightpoles duo. The culture girls want something with InT bonus, so vanguard is preferable. Let’s mithrilify it first, and then think if anything changes. If we can’t move faster we might return pretty late… This one is quite deep? Sending everyone back was the right call.
After that I continued with swift attacks, reckless attacks and poor attacks, just Wrap the skills as fast as possible and charge, then think of what comes next. Oh now, I might’ve gotten infected with the idiocy! But I won’t make it in time otherwise, Armored Pres and Slime-san probably leveled up with the enemies on the lower floors being stronger than expected. The speed of annihilation is crazy! I wasn’t able to keep up with their outrageously high specs and stats, and yet with just a bit of a level up their abilities receive a major boost. And since they are in very high spirits their momentum is unstoppable. And as per usual, they completely ignore the pleas of their master!
I mean, every time I say『Leave some for me? Please, share?』, they do (Nod-nod, Jiggle-jiggle), and then continue to obliterate everything in sight? And when I ask again『Please give me some too?』they go (Nod-nod, Jiggle-Jiggle), and proceed with a brutal wholesale slaughter? What were those nods and jiggles about?
With this and that we reached the 80th floor, and it’s still not the last one. It’s deep.
