Chapter 14: Sanctuary of the Evil G.o.d
Sanctuary of the Evil G.o.d
However simultaneously, there are never ending amount of challengers trying to capture it due to it’s popularity, and that was the reason adventurers around the world gathers at the sacred place of the challengers, Anrinia.
A miasma that drives a human mind mad drifts around the bas.e.m.e.nt 31 levels making up that dungeon, and countless fiendish traps are also set. Roaming monsters are also nothing but powerful undeads and golems, and challengers that are not high level would have no chance against it.
Although currently the best capture record stands at level 30, this is saying from the viewpoint of a dream team that is impossible under normal circ.u.mstance, formed from the demon king of that time and 2 of the four heavenly kings with 3 heroes. Discounting that irregular example would bring the best record to level 14. In the first place, if a party did not prepare a method to handle the miasma, it is not possible to capture deeper levels.
In fact, the majority of the adventurers cannot even reach level 5, collapsing mid way through.
Although that said, they didn’t particularly lose their lives.
Frankly, while this dungeon boast having the pinnacle of difficultly in the world, it’s an extremely unique dungeon that has yet to cause a single death up till today.
However in this dungeon, only weapons, items and money are taken and the fallen will be thrown out from the entrance of the dungeon without losing their lives.
While the traps set are troublesome, all of them are non-lethal.
A contradicting result produced from being called sinister, most evil and the worst and world’s safest dungeon is mainly due to Anri who is the dungeon master.
Furthermore, although capturing the deeper levels are in a single word, brutal, it is not so hard to capture the shallow levels.
Orlaine who is a hero is the highest cla.s.s of powerful person among the human race and Eligor is the predecessor demon king, both of them holds the power to break through the shallow levels even on their own.
Despite that, Reiji’s group was forced to stop their feet on the first floor.
“Why are there so many monsters!!?”
“There are 5 times as many as usual!?”
The reason was that it was crowded with several times the usual amount of monsters.
Encountering black steel golem in a place shortly after entering level 1 of the dungeon, and while the fight was engaged for Reiji to gain combat experience, a large crowd of skeleton lords attacked the sides.
Naturally, there is no longer any room for Reiji to acquire combat experience, and with Eligor as the vanguard, they cope by scattering the enemy proactively under Orlaine’s support.
However, new monsters rush on one after another after each monster was defeated, and gradually the front line was being pushed into despite being met.
To be able to maintain a front line although it was being pushed in this situation however, is proof that they are strong.
“As expected, this is an abnormal situation!?”
“Y, Yes! I do not know directly as I am challenging the dungeon as a challenger for the first time, but the degree of difficulty should not be so high in the first level!”
In addition, as the dark magic restricting Reiji from using magic has been released, both his hands are turned towards the monster’s army.
Furthermore, the 4 party members are tied together at the waist by a thin rope with a length that does not obstruct movement in case metastasis magic is activated.
“It’s inevitable, lets fall back to the nonaggression territory at the entrance for now!”
“B, But……at this rate, there is no chance for that too!”
Although Eligor reports so, there was no way to retreat in the situation where monsters are attacking incessantly. Of course Eligor knew that too, but he still had to say it.
“Kuuu, as it is……”
Even Reiji who was an amateur could tell that the battle situation was bad from looking.
“Mr. Reiji!? What do you intend to do!?”
“I don’t have what it takes to last if it’s like this. Sink or swim, I have to try this guy and see!”
With that, Reiji stretches out his right hand for the sword handle carried behind the back of his left waist and pulled it out vigorously.
The Sword left to fate……a weapon given by the Evil G.o.d with a high chance of changing it’s sword blade every time it’s pulled out.
While praying in his heart for a sword with the powerful effect that will mow down the enemy even without sword art to appear, the sword blade was withdrawn from the sheath–
It was a j.a.panese Radish.
“t.,OI!?”
“I, It’s not my fault, this!?’
Reiji and Tena exclaims at pulling a blank ticket.
In fact, Reiji tried to return it to the sheath but no matter how many times it’s tried, it wasn’t possible to put it back inside.
The burden on Reiji rose.
“What are you playing at!?”
“But I’m not playing anything !!??”
Criticism converges from the 2 people maintaining the front desperately, and that was also not unreasonable.
Light was emitted from both his hands while Reiji was considering the situation up to date.
Although it didn’t have a strong offensive power, there was an immediate effect on the undead who are adverse to light, and undeads who were illuminated by the light either had their bodies destroyed or their movement dulled.
“Tsk! It’s now, Retreat!”
“Okay!”
Following instruction of the leaping Eligor who did not fail to notice the moment when the monster’s movement became dull, Reiji’s group quickly retreated from that place and returned to the room at the dungeon’s entrance.
This room is said to be an inviolable area where monsters cannot enter and is a safety zone.
Four people who barely managed to reach there breathe a sigh reflexively and sank to the floor.
It should be noted that Reiji’s right hand was still holding the radish sword like before and yet, the radish has a strange appearance under the illumination of the light being emitted from his hands currently.
“Can you not put that stupid sword away?”
“You should have just hit your left arm with it.”
“Ah, I see.”
Receiving Eligor’s words, Reiji swung and hit the radish in his right hands at his left arm. The j.a.panese Radish broke in the middle and it’s tip fell onto the ground.
At the same time, the light that was continuously emitted from Reiji’s hands finally subsided.
He was able to put away the sword that was swung and struck once, unlike a while ago when held against the sheath.
As for the bit of radish which fell onto the ground, it disappeared too at the time the blade was sheathed.
“It’s really okay to hit even my own hands.”
“R, Really?”
Reiji finds a momentary hope from Tena and Orlaine’s words.
“I wish there was such room during a battle.”
“That’s right……”
The reality was realized in one go however, due to a Eligor calmly pointing it out.
At least, it’s an impossible act for Reiji currently.
“Nevertheless, what is this abnormal amount of monsters?”
“It seems like the timing was too perfect, as though it was aimed……”
Two of them, Tena and Reiji answered to the doubt Orlaine raised, but their words stopped at the same time.
“? What’s wrong? Do you have a clue?”
Eligor who wondered about the appearance of the two ask if they have any idea.
Sure enough, for an idea……there was.
With the power to be able to do such a thing, there is only one person with the reason to interfere with their capture.
“Anri Samaaa〜!?”
“Ms. Anri〜!?”
The idea that popped into the mind of those 2 was the master of the Black Rose Mansion, and also the master of Tena, Anri.
Holding powers of a dungeon master, she is able to increase the frequency of monster appearing temporarily, and considering the events of her opposing to Tena accompanying Reiji and approving unwillingly with the condition of reaching 10 levels after receiving her pleading, it’s no wonder even if she was secretly running the obstruction.
“Kaa-?”
The crow perched on Tena’s shoulder averted it’s face.
Crow “!?”
