3-8. Masked Hero (2/2)
The second room is like a square.
In the slightly-lower floor-level in the center, a 3 meter great-majin look-a-like monster is there. The AR indicate that it's a Stone Golem. Level is 40. It has [Physical Damage Halved],[Spirit Damage Invalid] unique skills.
”Standard golem is usually taken care by crossing off the E from EMETH so it become just METH, was it? There's nothing like that written, the letters itself are different anyway~”
Physical damage halved huh... that mean half of it still works right.
I maximize spear skill points and activate it.
I take out a steel spear from the storage.
After getting a good aim, I throw the spear!
The spear strikes the Stone Golem diagonally, passing through it and piercing through the earthen wall until its base.
A moment later, the stone golem crumbles from the place where the spear pierced through, demolished in single blow.
”It's an overkill~”
There's a blue gem in the mouth of the stone golem. This seems to be 『Fruit』.
The third room is a room with a treasure chest in the center.
Traps are laid all over the room up until the treasure chest location, there's only one safe path until there.
Though it's already easy as long as it has one.
I hang a black rapier on my waist, safely go through the traps and get in front of the treasure chest.
”Who~ah, the treasure chest was a mimic!”
Yes, the monster in this room is a dungeon regular, Mimic.
While I equip the rapier, the treasure chest is about to attack by opening its mouth, so I consecutively thrust the rapier. It feels like destroying a furniture rather than a living being.
>[Continuous Attack Skill Acquired]
The Mimic evaporates while leaving out purple smoke. I involuntarily step back and my foot almost got caught up by the trap. Dangerous, dangerous.
Underneath the place where the mimic was, there's a black stone. This one seems to be 『Seed』.
When I get back to the first room the fire has been extinguished, thin and white smoke is rising from the cinders.
The Wandering Root has evacuated somewhere, it's nowhere to be seen.
This is fortunate, I collect the statue from the pedestal. This is probably 『Tree』.
It doesn't seem that a boulder is going to crash down even if I took the statue.
I leave DeRiddle skill to place the collected item on the right position, then the door silently opens.
So that the door won't close when I'm going back, I stab a suitable great sword on the floor.
From there, there was nothing worth to talk about until the target room, I ran through.
◇
”This is the place where the arm demon should be...”
If he's not revived then I'm going back to indulge on lazing around~
An altar-looking thing is situated on the depth of the room.
I'm closing on it...
The candlesticks around the altar are suddenly lit with blue fire.
”Fuhahahaha! I appear!”
A magic circle with purple light emerges from the altar along with the arm demon's voice.
On the center of the magic cirlce, the arm demon relaxedly rises, no, its whole body has been revived.
”Muhha~~! In perfection I, am revived!”
”As usual, what an idiotic way of talking.”
”Mumumumu! You bastard! Silver mask! I, struggle!”
The demon roars, and black aura is rising from its body. It seems to be some kind of support magic. The AR indicates that it's [Physical Damage 90% Cut].
”Unpreparedness is one's greatest enemy! I, do my best!”
The demon roars again. Purple lights are emitting from its nails, horn and tail. The AR indicates that [Physical Attack Power 300% Up].
”Is it fine now?”
I put the sheath of holy sword on my waist while listening the demon. I wonder if it's also called sheath for western swords?
Returning my consciousness which went astray to the demon.
”For showing that allowance, it's my turn now! I, dash forward!”
The demon attacks while dashing!
While leaving purple afterglows, the demon stab the poisonous claw with its right hand, but I duck from the attack and counter with iai flash, slashing from the bottom up.
The blue light track is beautiful like always.
The holy sword tears through the meat smoothly without any resistance, severing the bones.
”Gunununu! I, unyielding!”
The demon who has its arm cut, use the rotating tail to strike instead. Come to think of it, I was blown away by this tail the first time.
If I don't let my guard down, this isn't a problem. I cut the tail with a single stroke of sword.
”No way! You bastard! You must be a hero! I astonished!”
The demon shows its back after using its tail to attack, I cut it into three pieces from behind...
Yep, I'm alright. After defeating so many insects, I got accustomed to it.
”This can't be! Mao-sama... I, regret...”
After making sure that the demon's HP is 0, I collect the cut tail and arm and put them on the main body. It's troublesome if it resurrects again like before. Let's cremate it.
I set fire by throwing the rest of the molotov bomb to its body from a bit far.
I monitor the corpse until it's burned down from a place away. Probably because its existence is already thin, it has been burned out leaving only ashes in only 5 minutes .
Having finished my business in the labyrinth, I leave it behind.
