82.100 Million Players
On this day, it was normal operation in the morning (,)
Nihonium Dungeon, fifth floor underground.
In a dungeon in a stalactite cave filled with dungeon snow, I was fighting a red bone, Red Skeleton.
Red Skeletons, strengthened by the magic of the dungeon, are extremely fast, and they attack at three times the speed of normal skeletons.
Moreover, they attack in more than one group.
The three Red Skeletons coming at you, holding their guns and firing a series of normal bullets.
Two of them are broken into pieces, and one of them pisses itself.
The one that popped out of my mouth instantly grabbed me, kicked me in the gut, and left me in no time.
It's hit and run, a brilliant move for a monster.
"Can you get any faster?
It kicked me and then retreated - that is, it took off in front of me, but it accelerated further and was behind me in an instant.
I felt something approaching and jumped to the side, and Red Skelton's swinging arm swung down and sliced the air with a sharp blow.
Red Skelton senses the human's approach and takes in dungeon snow, and if you don't take it down as fast as you can, you'll get more and more dungeon snow and faster.
Pan!
I fired a conventional round, but it didn't hit me anymore, and I ducked with great mobility.
It dodged a bullet.
As it dodged the bullet, its jawbone shook at high speed.
I felt as if he was laughing - laughing at me.
"......
Red Skelton is approaching even faster, and I put my gun away.
It changes direction on the way and comes around my back again in a flash - but
"Aye!
I got serious about this, and I got behind him.
I've been comparing speed with Red Skelton, and I'm not just talking about speed, I'm talking about speed.
I compared speed to Red Skelton, and after he made a move, I got to beat him to it.
You don't attack, you move, you give it a nudge, just to make sure it hits you.
He moves, catches up with me, and pokes me.

Repeat the process for about five minutes.
Red Skelton was faster than I was.
I couldn't get around it, and it didn't hit me.
Five minutes, or until Red Skelton outranks my speed.
I was curious, so I tested it.
It took me five minutes to get faster than me.
I'll keep that in mind.
I took out my gun, loaded both guns with reinforced bullets and tracking rounds, and fired.
The bullets flew towards Red Skelton. I'm sure you'll be able to see the after-image of Red Skelton by now, but even if you duck, you were hit in the back by the tracking bullet as it bends and chases you.
The two bullets hit him, his bones broke apart and he dropped the seeds.
I pick it up and give it MP.
Power up, and then the test.
In the morning, (...) he ran as usual, and raised his MP from E to D, which had been stopped.
The afternoon was fidgety.
Terdungeon, first basement floor.
Kill the slime and drop the sprouts.
Put the gun away, push the magic cart, grab a flying slime and crush it on the cart to get around the dungeon.
It's a supermarket cart style I invented a few days ago.
When the sprouts were full, I pressed the transfer button instead of leaving the dungeon.
There was a bang, and the cart was empty.
I hunted for more slime and dropped the sprouts.
After a while, it was full, and I transferred it back to the house - to that place where Elsa was being dispatched.
I fidgeted every time I made a transfer.
I didn't count the amount, I didn't dare count it.
Even if it wasn't full halfway through the transfer, I made the transfer earlier and earlier.
Not only did I hunt for sprouts, I also went to the third floor to hunt for pumpkins.
I also hunted bamboo shoots on the fourth floor, and watermelons on the fifth floor.
That made me lose track of the amount of money I was spending.
Fidgety.
I wanted to do a summary of the results after everything was over and boom, but I started getting really fidgety in the middle of the hunt.
I wondered many times if I should go back and ask how things were going, but I held it together and continued hunting anyway.
And so I spent the afternoon fidgeting.
I continued to hunt non-stop without leaving the dungeon even once.
When I returned to my three-story home in the evening, Emily and Celeste were already back on the ground floor.
'You're welcome back,'
Welcome back.
I'm home. You're tallying up.
The magic cart storage area on the first floor, the hastily attached office desk.
There, Elsa is running a pen on a piece of paper.
A quick glance at the numbers lined up in various ways, it looks like she's doing a tally of today's minutes.
'How did everyone do?'
'I don't know yet. I asked Lyota to put it all together and present it when she gets back after the tally is done.
This is my first time, and I want to know it all at once.
I'm the same way. I was so nervous in the middle of the game that I couldn't concentrate properly, and I don't think I was very efficient today.
I know.
Emily agreed with me.
From tomorrow onwards, this fidgeting will disappear, so it should be more efficient, but only today, I thought it would be a bad idea if I earned less money.
As I waited for a while while thinking about this, Elsa put down her pen and looked up.
''Good job. You finished tallying up?''
Yes. You're all due for today.
Uh, we need to talk to him individually first.
'What?Ah yes. Then Mr. Celeste will have 156,551 piro.
You used to be worth about 100,000, Celeste.
It's amazing: ...... It's 1.5 times better: ......
I can't believe he's doing this.
And Emily, that's 273,972 piro.
'Yes!I don't know, is there that much?
Yes, I'm sure.
That's great, Emily.
Yo, Yoda, you did it.
No, no, I mean, 270,000 is a lot.
What do you mean?
'I remember because I did the math a long time ago, and if I make 270,000 every day, that's 100 million a year.
Yeah!
A hundred million is a lot of money ......
Emily is surprised, and Celeste is wagging her tongue.
Of course, I don't go to dungeons every day for various reasons, but 270,000 a day is still a symbolic figure, or at least an achievement.
"Congratulations Emily, you're practically a 100 million player!
Thanks to such ...... Yoda.
Emily's cheeks dyed and she smiled shyly.
She's properly happy.
'Well, ......, I'm the last one.
I was still fidgety.
I looked at Elsa and closed the report on the tally.
My heart crunched even more as the drum roll started to play in my head.
'Lyota-san is at 2,999,808 piro.
'Oh!Oh?Ah, ...... didn't reach 3 million.
A lot of emotions came and went in an instant.
The joy of breaking the record, and then the disappointment and disappointment of not reaching the 3 million mark by a touch.
A lot of emotions went back and forth in my heart.
But.
It's amazing, I knew it was Lyota.
What?
It's a billion players!
...... Oh.
A hundred million is a big number, so I reacted immediately, but a billion wasn't immediately obvious to me, on the contrary.
A billion players or ...... Yeah, that could be great.
At night, the excitement of getting off my butt kept me from falling asleep.
