Chapter 257 Part 1
You’ve logged in.
Anyway.
Only me on the relay point huh?
Seeing that makes me feel lonely, so let me summon some monsters quickly.
I decided to summon Bunraku and then asked him to prepare some food for breakfast.
After that, I was thinking about what I should do for today.
It was not bad to continue yesterday’s activity.
From the relay portal, three options can be seen as viable.
Challenge the outside gatekeeper in a series of battles.
Exit the door on the other side and go to S6.
And explore a cave that hasn’t been captured properly yet.
That’s right.
I guess I’m worried knowing that there was a place that I do not know in front of me.
I avoided options that could only be done with cooperation.
It might be good to explore caves now.
However, I slightly struggled when I needed to decide on the Team.
It was true that I want to raise the level at the same time.
So I decided to summon Volff, Florin, Naraku, and Omagoatoki.
I believe it won’t be more difficult than the S6 map.
But I also don’t believe it was lower than S5.
Since this was the first time I entered the cave, I decided to give priority to Exploration.
That was the real intention.
I have no problem leaving Bunraku to cook breakfast.
If I don’t consider going to raise the level, I could use Shishiku or Telomere.
Or maybe I could even call the Polar Night.
No, it really can’t be helped.
After all, I couldn’t decide even after I finished eating.
Uh.
There was no choice but to know that there was a risk there.
I decided to return Bunraku and summoned the Aramid.
Except for Naraku, this lineup could be expected for exploration ability in some ways.
It was too heavy you ask?
This much was fine don’t you think?!
Instead, I should do my best in battle.
So, what weapon should I use you ask?
Maybe I should use the petrified wood cane.
Generally, if you know the inside of the cave, you can change the lineup.
And I might need to switch to other things other than a cane.
What kind of monsters will appear anyway?
If you don’t understand that, there was nothing you can do.
I guess I should just strengthen the spell as much as possible.
I think it was okay to be timid.
What benefits the cave?
Surprisingly, the passageway was easy to pass.
The floor was made out of stone.
The wall and arches, up to the ceiling were also made of stones.
The air doesn’t smell muddy either.
It seems that there was air coming from somewhere.
On the contrary, though, it was a creepy place.
You are more likely being attacked by monsters here, and then to illuminate your way was only using a flashlight.
Though the passage looked like it had been built using a fairly high level of technology.
I went down the stairs from the middle, there was also landing on it.
It was a strangely standardized design.
The line up goes silently.
The leader was Volff, a wolf-shaped monster that was comfortable to snuggles about.
Looking at the situation, it was clear that Volff was in control.
In terms of body size, Omagatoki was one size larger, which was equivalent to my height.
Volff who has a smaller physique has a higher vitality status value than Omagatoki.
Maybe I should think of it as a racial difference?
I and Naraku go side by side behind Volff.
Florin was wary of being on the back so that one always goes back and forth between behind us and the back.
Aramid was wrapping around my body.
This one tongue goes in and out while the neck turns its head back and forth looking around…
It was like a pet, this one.
No, isn’t that different?
It was clear I haven’t felt any sign of demon yet.
The stairs continue in a strange atmosphere.
It was also some kind of mechanism.
Suddenly, the terrain changed.
There was still a passageway with cobblestones as the floor.
But the ceiling and the walls were different.
A limestone cave?
It was wide as well.
The scale was too large.
And the whole wall was shinning strangely, blocking the light of the flashlight.
It looks like phosphorescence.
When I touch the wall, it was moss.
I also could feel the dampness from it a lot.
The climate above this should be like a desert, isn’t it?
Volff suddenly growled.
Omagatoki also lowered its posture and exposed its fangs.
Aramid also readily intercept.
Apparently, something was coming?
The God of Putah Lv 4.
Apostle Enemy Target Active.
Battle position: Ground ???
Putah’s servants Lv 5.
Apostle Enemy Target Active.
Battle Position: Ground Space-Time attribute, light attribute, dark attribute.
Putah’s underling Lv 7.
Apostle Enemy Target Active.
Battle Position: Ground Space-time attribute, light attribute, dark attribute.
Apis Lv 1.
Monster Enemy Target Active.
Battle position: Ground Space-time attribute, light attribute, dark attribute.
This enemy configuration again?!
One god, one servant, four underlings, one monster.
All the apostles look like mummies.
But, I think it was slightly smaller though?
The good thing was the specialized weapon seems to be the same design?
And the monster was that Apis.
It was a cow.
A cow in a deep underground cave?
Somehow that makes me feel uncomfortable.
Furthermore, it was a black cow.
And there seem to be triangular spots on the forehead.
It has a circular object overhead like a decoration.
At first glance, it looks like a big sake cup.
Somehow that makes me feel concerned.
If that one was really a black cow, I hope this one would drop a lump of good meat.
Somehow that makes me feel a bit happy.
I was wondering if I should do a rearguard job because I use a cane?
And let everyone become the vanguard?
Rather, this Apis seems to be the rearguard.
What does that means I wonder?
I was enjoying the battles between Cane users against Putah God.
The surroundings were filled with lights.
The gods poke the ground with its cane.
What are you doing I wonder?
No, wait…
The tip of the cane is buried unnaturally.
Yes, it was buried.
The gods then disappeared into the shadow.
And the shadow itself then gone.
Huh?
And on the back, I feel pain.
Eh?
The god had appeared behind me.
Before you know it, the god was behind me?
It seems that he was receded immediately after Aramid’s counterattacked, it seems I have avoided a crisis.
What was that just now?
Hmm?
An underling appeared from the shadow of Naraku and was attacking Naraku’s back.
These guys…
Were they moving via the shadows?
The first thing I needed to defeat seems to be the cow.
Apis.
Those apostles do not seem to have a high attack power but they seem to be quite tough.
I don’t think I would fall behind if we fight normally but…
Florin was already aiming at Apis from the beginning.
Fortunately or unfortunately, Apis was already in a poisoned state.
Despite having two underlings guarding it, it seems it was not completely guarded.
The servant was being defeated by Volff and Omagatoki.
Oi oi, fast!
This was bad!
This god was supposedly a pretty strong monster you know?
NO, maybe it can be said that it excels in defense?
It was a pretty good battle between the cane users.
Even so, this god, if you take your time, you could see our victory.
I wanted to deal with Apis, so I went and killed it quite forcibly.
I jumped into its body and plunge into it, held my head down, and pulled it.
Just like that, I throw it to the back.
Then, I slammed Vajra toward the fallen opponent.
Now then, here we go…
Next was Apis.
However.
It seems things have already ended.
Sad…
Oh well anyway…
It seems the apostles had used the shadow to move around.
It was not as annoying as the Dark Crown, but it was close.
If it was defense then, I think this one was better?
Maybe, the monsters here were full of apostles?
Somehow I feel worried.
So what was the dropped item anyway?
Something had definitely being dropped.
【 Item 】 Sun Disk, Quality ?, Rarity ?, Weight 0+, Durability ?.
Effeft: ? Festival equiment.
A ritual vessel used to decorate the Holy cow Apis.
The material was unknown. It was impossible to recover the durability value.
It was said to have the power to create the sun from the darkness.
Hmm?
Did Something you don’t know come off?
The questions remained.
But let us proceed with the search here.
A building was build in a vast space that seems to be a limestone cave.
Stone Framed Altar.
A small hill with stairs?
《 Offer and Offerings to the altar.》
I tried to climb.
Suddenly there was an info display and it disappeared immediately.
Nothing happened from thereon.
I put the sun disk I just picked up on the altar.
It was a festival instrument after all.
But nothing happened.
Apparently, something was not done right.
I tried to fight again against the Putah gods around the altar.
This time, I will try to change the procedure.
The gods, the servants, the underlings were handed by me, Naraku, and then the Aramid.
Volff, Florin, and Omagotoki were dealing with Apis.
That was because I didn’t use the combo technique…
Also, it seems I could do something about the shadow using the flashlight.
