576 576. Ghost
Nifonium dungeon in the morning.
I asked my friends not to enter the dungeon today unless there was something wrong.
The reason for that was the presence of the robber hag.
I don't want to have to worry about me getting stripped off or my friends getting stripped off.
That's why it's not like the last time Sakura barged in and went "oh ......".
Still, having your clothes taken off every time you meet someone, even if you know no one will come, you still take mental damage every time you get hit.
So I took full effect of my brain's radar and proceeded cautiously and carefully, almost passing through the thirteenth floor and descending to the fourteenth floor underground.
Now I can use the transporter room to come next time.
I can stabilize through the deprived old woman.
While relieved about that, he checked the situation around him.
The appearance of the dungeon hadn't changed.
A pulsating, visceral dungeon with a full-blown grossness.
I'm getting much more comfortable with the look of this dungeon.
Then I turn my attention towards my brain's radar to look for the monster.
'Huh?'
I couldn't help myself.
I froze for a moment as it happened.
As I was surprised and confused by what I felt on my brain's radar, a monster appeared.
I killed that monster in an instant.
It was a major youkai with a long nose and dressed as a shugenja, a tengu, that's what it was.
I killed it in a flash, half-reflexively.
''Hahaha ......''

I was so surprised by what I saw on the radar that I forgot all about taming or looking at it, and killed it instantly with a zero-range headshot from the flesh.
The fallen tengu drops with a pop.
When I picked it up, I found it was a fruit about the size of a small ball watermelon, with a unique citrusy bumpy skin and smell.
When I lightly peeled the fruit, I found that the skin alone was about an inch thick, and underneath the skin I could smell a sour smell.
'This is the usual drop.
There's no need to check it right now to see if it's unusual.
I tuck the fruit into my Grand Eater's pocket and focus my attention on the radar again.
To be honest, I can't be involved in the monsters on this floor anymore, and I can see something that looks important.
There are two staircases that seem to lead to the lower floor.
I'm not sure if it's a mistake, so I carefully avoided the Tengu and headed for the stairs, just as I did with the previous floor.
I knew there were two: ......
I reached it, and there were two sets of stairs leading down.
This had never happened before.
There had never been more than one staircase in existence like this.
...... There's no such thing as nothing, is there?
Next up is the fifteenth floor underground.
Considering the various gimmicks and various monsters that require special strategies, it's unlikely that the clear anomaly of two staircases will be nothing at all.
Nevertheless, we can't afford not to proceed.
We've been asked by Cell to investigate the attack, and most importantly, if we capture the next fifteenth floor, we may finally be able to find Nifongium.
...... Okay.
I steeled myself and went down the stairs to the left first.
The end of the stairs was also a visceral dungeon - but it was an open, wide space.
Tall and wide.
It was a spacious space about the size of a school gym.
What was there was a single monster.
"Demons, huh?
It has a build three times the size of a human, a single loincloth, two horns on its head, and sharp fangs visible from its mouth.
If it wasn't a nihonium, he would have thought it was an 'ogre', but in this nihonium, it was probably an 'ogre' for sure.
The ogre roared, and that was the signal to start the war.
The power and speed of the demon was far different from the previous youkai.
They were big, fast and strong.
Purely, an opponent that was like a symbol of power, and the strength was probably closing in on the Dungeon Master class, I thought as my first punch was blown off my entire guard.
I regained my stance in the air, pulled out my two pistols and fired a series of regular bullets.
A small check to disperse a large number of bullets.
The demon shot them all down with a flurry of fists.
''No tricks?''
That might help.
I put my gun away and kick the ground as the demon fleshes me out again and rushes forward in the same manner.
Me and the ogre, rushing at breakneck speed, throwing punches and striking each other as if we'd shown each other the way.
Dogon
A shockwave of punches met, shaking the entire hierarchy.
I backed up in the air, missing the momentum and backing up.
As I landed, numbness came late to my arm.
Meanwhile, the demon's right arm was limp and deformed and hanging down.
We won the fight.
This one has some numbness left in his right hand - but he moves.
The second time, I jumped at him from us.
I rushed forward and dove to the right, cracking and turning when the demon reacted, ducking to the right.
The demon reacts, but the squishy arm doesn't move as it should, and the reaction is delayed for a breath.
Then he punches it with all his might.
His body bends sideways in the shape of the letter "ku" and he goes flying away at great speed.
I didn't miss and chased after it.
This time, instead of doing a small check, he fires a series of growth bullets to kill.
You can't get your body back up, and you can't guard against it, so the demon took all the growth bullets with his body.
He fell to the ground with a thud.
Trying to get up, he gets down on one knee.
And then with a crunch, one of the two horns snapped off with a force that sent it flying.
...... hmm?Again.
As soon as I saw that he was defeated and there was no sign of him becoming a drop, I fired a series of growth bullets to further spell him out.
''!!!''
It was the most surprising moment after getting the growth bullets.
The demon nodded down on one knee and was hit by all the growth bullets, but it didn't falter.
The scene was a sure sign that he hadn't taken any damage from my experience of dealing with various monsters in the past.
What do you mean?And then things changed further.
The broken demon's horns had grown back.
The demon then stood up and rushed at me as if the damage I had just done hadn't been done.
My reaction is delayed by surprise, and I'm blown away by the same guard as the first time.
The power was the same as that time, too.
'...... simultaneous attack?!
Two horns, two stairs.
After one of them broke off, it wouldn't accept damage, and it would come back over time.
I knew this situation as knowledge.
