There was no conversation in the forest, and the time passed with nothing but movement.
　There wasn't much to say, except that Philly turned hostile.

'There it is!'

　Sifu-chan, who was ahead of me, found the ruins and pointed to them.
　After further careful investigation, a transfer magic circle was discovered.

　Zado said it was a hierarchical dungeon, but in this world, it's natural to dive into dungeons with a transporter magic circle.
　You can advance to the next level by clearing one level, and when you reach the lowest level, there is a boss, and if you defeat him, you can get a valuable rare item or something.
　The reason why there are dungeons like this all over the world is not yet known.

　By the way, dungeons are very different from one world to another, so I haven't fully analyzed them either.
　I'll have to wait until I have a chance to talk about it again.

Well, we're going to take the lead on this one, so I'll come back for you when it's safe to do so.

　Yuya and the others, who are odorous in contrast to the previous, rode the transfer magic circle ahead of me.
　Then they all disappeared, leaving me and Cyanne.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. It's freaky to watch.

　As soon as they are alone, Cianne starts complaining.
　It's about time I told her the truth.

"The other day you said that Nicopotito is 'the ability to make someone fall in love with you'. That was a lie.
What did you say?

　Cianne raised an eyebrow at my words.

'Not exactly the right words.

　He sits down to dust off the nearby rubble and reveals the truth.

'Those who are connected to their abilities by Nicopotito have their personalities overwritten and lose their ego.
Wha...?

　Sianne exclaimed.

'After seeing those women, you know better, don't you?　Those who lose their ego are synchronized with the desires of their abilities and become slave dolls (slave-dolls) at their beck and call. They appear to be in love with each other, but they just move that way in accordance with the wishes of their abilities.

　Yes, that's what 'the ability to make someone fall in love with you' is all about.
　Nicopotito's common name is mind rape.
　It rewrites your partner's mind and makes them a slave doll that never betrays you.
　However, it is based on the original personality, so the slave doll looks like an ordinary person.
　That's what makes Nikopo Cheat different from other mind-controlling cheats.

''Is that ... how can the person being controlled be said to be alive?
At least he's dead as an individual.

　Nicopo Cheat itself is not a powerful cheat ability by any means.
　Its target is limited to the opposite s*x, and it doesn't make slave dolls dramatically stronger.
　Moreover, the cheat doesn't work on people of the opposite s*x that the ability holder doesn't like, and it even has a weakness: it doesn't work on people with whom he or she has a hostile intent.

　Even so, many, if not all, of the Cheat power holders who have physical relations with all the members of the harem have mastered the Nikopo Cheat.　
　Numerous otherworldly trippers with harem aspirations are trampling on women's dignity on an ongoing basis. They use beautiful women as tools to satisfy their desires, just to make their dreams come true.

''But ... that man?''

　I know what the discomfort is that Sianne has learned to feel.
　But I'll explain it a little later.

''We've confirmed that one level is safe!

　Sifu-chan returned from the transfer magic circle.

　Just in time.
　I sat up unceremoniously and approached Sifu-kochan.

"What?

　Regardless of the startled Sifuuko-chan, I activate my appraisal eye and see the synchronization line.
　I made sure that it was extending towards the transfer magic circle and disappeared in the middle.
　On top of that, while activating a certain cheat, I stroked Sifu-ko-chan's head.

''Huh, Huh........''

　Then Sifu-ko's expression troned and a glazed look mixed with her gaze up at me.
　Sianne's eyes widened at the sudden change.

''What did you do?''
'Nadepochito. I dyed his slave puppet my color.

　Nadepotchito. Of course, it's short for Nadetarapot.
　It has exactly the same effect as the nikopo cheat, except that it is directly synchronized with the head stroke.
　Since I don't like the lowly nature of manipulating women, I wouldn't use this cheat for anything other than the purpose of taking control of an already ego-less slave doll.
　However, if you're talking about how badly you treat women, then I guess you're out of luck when you're putting your wife in the item box.

　Now, I have a lot of thoughts, but let's just go the revenge agent route.

'Let's get started. The battle to determine the true demon beast.

　Here's the middle part of the revenge story that Zado plans and I'm adapting.
　I still don't know how it's going to end, though.



　After that, the dungeon attack continued to progress.
　The monsters that appeared were not so strong, so Yuya and the others were able to defeat them with ease.

'That's Yuya!
You're good.

　Every time Yuuya slayed a monster, the slave dolls praised their master.
　In the midst of all this, the only one who was nudged by me was Sifuuko-chan, who was whistling carefree.

''What's wrong?''

　Perhaps worried about Sifu-ko-chan, who is different from the usual, Yuya calls out to her.

''Eh, what?　What's up, Chloe?
Uh-uh. It's nothing. Oh, can you go see what's going on?

　Yuya smiled at Sifuuko-chan and smiled at her.
　But Yuya's thread is played by my thread and wiped out without a trace.
　Yuya's Nikopo doesn't have enough power to override my Nadepo.

'Hmm, I'd rather go this way than that way...'
'Eh....'

　Sifuuko-chan suddenly started to rebel, and Yuya gave a blatantly confused cry.

''You have to listen to Yuya.
''Yuya-sama can't be wrong~''
Hey, all right.

　The other slave dolls told me to do it, and I reluctantly obeyed, Sifu-chan.
　Then, the filly stared at me with zit eyes.

'You've been acting strange since just now. What did you do to that girl?
That's okay. I'm just telling him he's doing a good job.

　I'm not going to get anything out of you if you look at me that much.

'I'll definitely grab your tail and make Yuya apologize.

　Spouting a discarded line that no one else could hear, Philly went to comfort the still stunned Yuya.

'Excuse me~, we're not all bad kids~'

　But it seems to be a perfect fit for Preie's ears.
　With a hand on her cheek, she begins to follow up with a prolonged but gentle voice to the filly and the others.

'Everyone loves Yuya-sama~'
How did you end up in the bonds of the dawn?

　Preie-san was not embarrassed by my question, but smiled like a compassionate mother.

''I wonder why~. When I see that girl's smile, I can't leave her alone for some reason. Your maternal instincts are tickled, you say~. It makes me want to soothe her~
Okay.

　I whispered in his ear as I put my hand on his shoulder a little too forcefully.

'So, will you heal me too?'
'What?　Oh, um, you're kidding me....

　Yes, Nadepo.

"Ho, are you serious~?　I don't know what to do, I'm in trouble~

　Preie, it's a fall in 2 seconds.

　This is why it's notorious that women who have been nikoponadeposed are likely to open their legs to anyone.
　Well, it's the ego of the cheat men that makes them do it, and he's a victim too.
　It's a given that a man wants a woman.

'All that's left is that female sorcerer called Philly or something. Are you going to take them all away at this rate?
No, she's the last one standing.

　He responds with a shake of his head to Cianne, who gives him a bad smile as he puts a finger to his chin.
　If things go according to plan, we're almost at the bottom level.
　That's where the dungeon's boss monster is waiting for us.



　That's why it's a boss monster battle.

''Hey!''

　Yuya slashes off the boss monster's head.
　However, the boss monster doesn't fall while roaring.
　That's right. It's because the opponent's head isn't just one.

　The boss's true identity is a multi-headed dragon, the so-called hydra.
　Countless long necks extend from its round, four-legged body, and at the end of them is a snake's head.
　Moreover, it is a troublesome monster that simply slashing its head will cause it to regenerate.
　In fact, even though Yuya has lost his head many times from earlier, new heads grow out of the cuts.

''Be careful, Yuya. This guy is strong.
I know!　Don't worry ... I'll protect you all!

　Yuya boldly strikes while spouting stinky lines that make it embarrassing for me to hear.
　I let Sifuuko-chan draw my attention to some heads, and I let Prie properly recover the damage I received from the Hydra's attack.
　However, the heads I just slashed just now have regenerated, and I'm jittery at this rate.

''Filly. Use the granted magic to bring fire to Yuya's sword.

　It's kind of a rush to just watch, so I gave him a hint.

'Who cares what you say...'
Oh, right.　Philly, do as Mr. Sakagagi says!

　He showed a little hesitation, but if it was Yuya's order, it was absolute.
　The filly began to chant.

''Enchanted Flame.''

　It seems to have been successfully activated, and Yuya's sword gurgles and flares up.

''How about this!''

　Yuya swung his flaming sword and cut off the heads.
　It was the same process as before, but the heads of the hydra moaned in pain.
　Yuya shouted with a smile of satisfaction.

''I knew it!　The neck won't regenerate from the cuts that have been burned!
I can't believe you figured that out. You're very good at that.
'Exactly the right direction!　That's great Ryou!
Smart thinking. You're the best that I've ever seen.

　There's something interesting about the accolades.
　Philly narrows her eyes, but as expected, she doesn't have time to go into it.
　She starts a new magic chant.

　The siege formation is neat and we're able to keep a good pace.
　It's only a matter of time before he chops off all the heads at this rate.

"Well, so, so-so.

　While Yuya and Philly's attention is on Hydra, they take out the sealing beads from the item box.

''Unseal.''

　A stone statue is being pulled out of the Seal Bead.
　If you cast a disarming spell on it, oh my goodness!

...geez. Here.

　I've been petrified and turned into Zado!
　Yes, I had brought it to stone with a petrified gaze.

'The bottom level of the dungeon. The plan is proceeding as planned, Zado.
'Oh, whoa!　Well done!

　I thought I was smiling like a madman at my explanation of the situation, but Zadoh turned his head around in a circle.

'Oh, Philly!　I've missed you!
What?　Brother!

　Filly's chanting was interrupted.
　On the contrary, Zado called out and immediately moved into chanting, completing the spell.

'Mute!'
!

　The filly's mouth fluttered like a goldfish wanting to be fed with an astonished expression on her face.
　The silent magic deprived her of her voice........or rather, sound.
　This is fatal to a sorcerer like Philly, who does not have the ability to omit chanting.

　Yuya, who was in the middle of fighting the hydra, finally noticed the unusual situation here.

''Zado!　Why are you here!
"Spiderweb!

　But it was too late.
　Zado's string-generating magic, which was chanting continuously, caught Yuya.

''Kuu...!

　Yuya grunts as he is crucified to the floor by a thread.
　It's Hydra's head, though, that comes at him all at once, just in case there's an opening.

'Sorry, you're no longer of use to me.

　Saying that, he snapped his fingers, which were clothed in magic waves, towards the hydra.
　Then a vacuum wave accompanied by magical power is generated from the tip of the finger, and the body of the hydra is cut in half.
　The torso's armor can't be pulled off with an ordinary sword, but in my case, this one is faster.
　The hydra sinks with a roaring sound as it screams in decimation.

''Kuhahahaha!　I did it, I did it!

　Zado's deafening humor rang out.
　Yuya shouted, losing his voice.

''Cammy!　Miss Flora!
'It's useless, it's useless. Your women are being controlled by this fiend!

　Hee hee, I thought it was in poor taste, but I did what you said I would do.
　I'm sure Philly is going to look at me like I'm right, but I'm going to have to take it easy on them.

Well, Philly. I'm glad you've betrayed me.
....!

　With a brutal smile on his face, Zado is inching closer to the helpless filly.

　Now, the plan is to take him by surprise in the middle of the boss fight until he is incapacitated. From here on out, it's Zado's turn to do whatever he wants, and I don't know what will happen.
　However, I can imagine.
　He'll probably go through the motions of torturing them or something while vexing them with his usual grudging words.
　It's uncomfortable to watch that kind of thing, and above all, it's artless.

　That's why it's your turn, Paralysis Magic, it's your turn.

''Ugh!

　A fully paralyzed Zado groaned and fell to the ground in a flutter.
　It was the magic that had incapacitated the noble knight in the world of summoned slaves before.
　He can't move or speak, but he's only conscious.

''Zado, I'm going to show you something interesting now.

　He goes through the stunned Philly and heads down to Yuya, who is still in custody.

'Thank you!　Thank you for your help....
What are you confused about?

　Yuya's eyes sparkled as he corrected her to pluck out her hope.

'I'm sorry to deceive you, but Zado was right I am a demon. I made a deal with him and lured you guys here to take revenge on his behalf.
What ... oh no, it's not true, is it?

　Yuya looks as if he's been pushed to the bottom of despair again.

''That's why I didn't save you,''
'It's awful I trusted you!　I thought he was a horrible person, but he said we could talk and understand each other if we were both Japanese!

　Oh, God.
　Talking to this guy is driving me crazy.

"What, Cammy?　Miss Flora?

　Yuya is looking at me blankly.
　Because before I knew it, Sifuuko and Prie were standing on either side of me.
　And Sianne, who had been silently watching what had happened so far, was a little further away from me.

''That's why. I'm going to complete Zado's revenge in my own way.
