After that, they returned to the guild and collected the materials and magic stones from the volcano hierarchy while taking a break. After getting used to the volcano monsters, Tsutomu realized that it was already late.


''Let's go home!''
Oh, is it that time already?


　Even though I've been diving early in the morning and taking a break, the time is already past twenty. I've been diving the dungeon for quite a while this time because I've signed a sponsorship agreement and am required to appear on the monitor at a time when there are many spectators.


(Will I start diving at noon tomorrow?)


　The crowd was relatively small in the morning, so they could cut off the morning hours now. Tsutomu wiped the sweat from his cheeks with a towel as he thought about the upcoming change in activity time before entering the Black Gate and returning to the guild. The four people around him didn't seem as tired as Tsutomu, but rather seemed to be in good spirits.

　After returning home to the Clan House, Tsutomu took a bath first to freshen up and then counted the materials and magic stones he had obtained today from his magic bag and wrote them down in his report. The materials are placed in a large, large-capacity magic bag that was newly purchased when I left Oli in charge of equipment management.

　I have received a request from the Doren Workshop to purchase the materials and magical stones from the volcanic hierarchy in priority, so I will bring them all together during my upcoming vacation. After having dinner, Tsutomu handed over the report to Oli and sat down vigorously on the sofa, letting the exhaustion that surged through him wash over him.


'Let's go again today.
Just not today.
I see.


　Amira's shoulders slumped in disappointment when she was refused the practice of dragonization that she always did. Then she prepared herself alone and left to practice her flies in the guild's training grounds.


'How do you do it?'
He has great stamina, doesn't he? Isn't he on par with Daryl?
I don't want you to take it too far.


　After seeing Amira off while talking about such things with Hannah, Tsutomu was tired, so he went back to his room today and went to bed.

　From the next day, the Infinite Circle PT continued to update the hierarchy while collecting materials in the volcano hierarchy. Each of their levels gradually increased, and Diniel had mastered a new skill, Stream Arrow, at seventy-one levels.

　Amira had broken through fifty levels and reached a region where it was extremely difficult to level up. The other three had risen two or three levels but hadn't learned the new skill.


''Stream Arrow.


　When Diniel uttered the name of the skill, she let her hand move automatically and shot an arrow into the sky. When she thought that the arrow glowed blue, a fine arrow of light landed on the ground. The four people around her let out a light cheer, oh.


''Wow. It's an amazing mind power sucker.
'But it's so powerful. It would be fun to use an attribute arrow.
I'm not very good with these skills.


　Rain Arrow, a skill similar to Stream Arrow, is also rarely used by Diniel. The skill of shooting arrows upwards and then raining them down is uncontrollable and is inevitably prone to misfiring at allies. It's not impossible to use it if it's coordinated, but Rain Arrow isn't strong enough to put that much effort into it.


'If you can link up with Hannah, why not incorporate it?　If it looks like this, it's probably going to be pretty useful in a mounted golem fight.
Hmm.
I'll be fine!　Maybe if you tell me, we can avoid it!


　Diniel closed his eyes and thought about it, as Hannah replied, flying on the spot with a light twitch. Then he looked back at Hannah with languid eyes.


'I can't because I'm going to use it to figure out the skill for about three days, but I'll give it a go when I'm done.
All right!


　Hannah also trusted Diniel's skills, who had never misfired before, so she was not particularly scared and agreed. Daryl, who had been watching the two of them enviously, glanced at Amira afterwards, but she had been so focused on her fly practice that she hadn't noticed it at all.

　After that, she continued to update it at the rate of one level every few days, and in no time at all, it became a holiday. At that time, Tsutomu took the accumulated flame magic stones and ores to the Doren Workshop. Then the artisans came swarming in like ants in front of the sweets.


''I didn't expect you to bring so much. That's very helpful. We can use this to make some more prototypes.
'No, in return, Daryl's equipment and Amira's greatsword, please.
I'll fix it. I'll fix it perfectly.


　The head of the workshop, an old dwarven man named Doren, throws his arms around Tsutomu as if to answer his voice. It seems that they will soon begin to process the ore, and the craftsmen begin to build a fire. Tsutomu asked the artisans to carry Daryl's armor and Amira's great sword that he had brought with him, and then he left the heated workshop.

　After that, he went to the forest apothecary to make small talk with the old lady while asking her about the progress of her new work, and got involved with the dwarven girl at the magic stone exchange center. Apparently she was Doren's grandson, and she wanted to thank him for taking the sponsorship.


''So, you should sell the magic stones at our house. I'll buy them at a higher price than the guild.''
Oh, I see. Well, I can't promise you that, but I'll think about it.


　As for the magic stone redemption, I'm leaving everything to Oli, so I'll leave the final decision to her. After separating from the plainclothes dwarf girl, Tsutomu observed the explorers in the monitor market who were hiding in the dungeon as usual.

　Aldrete Crow was finally free from the Ice Demon Stone's conflict of interest, and Luke could see him fighting on the seventy-one levels of the snowfield. The ice demon stone fiasco had become such a social phenomenon that not only the dungeon newspapers but also the general press had picked up on it, so it must have taken a lot of pains to clear it up.

　As a result of their hard work, Aldrete Crow was able to raise a huge amount of money, but once they had more than a billion dollars, various organizations would interfere. Aldoret Crow's clerks are hounded to deal with this, and they look at each other like dead fish.

　In contrast to those clerks, the PT members of the first army seemed to have a joyful look on their faces. They had defeated the Mounted Golem with considerable difficulty, and they didn't have much to worry about following him. Besides, after breaking through the seventy levels, the fan base skyrocketed for the first army members. Bittman, a tank, and Sova, a multi-weapon attacker. Healer Stephanie had also become much more famous.

　Stephanie is a healer who is faithful to the material Tsutomu gave her, such as proper recovery for support effect times that rarely run out, and other skills such as placing and shooting skills and using the fly to expand her vision. In addition to that, he was now also providing support recovery to the monsters Luke had summoned.


(Oh, great.)


　Luke seemed to be summoning monsters that were easy to survive as well, and Stephanie was able to achieve support recovery to practically five people. Her stable standings were impressive from Tsutomu's perspective.

　In comparison, the Silver Beast healer reflected in the second row could be rightly described as inexhaustible. Lorena's standing with her characteristic rabbit ears was a far cry from Stephanie's back-to-basics style.

　Instead of supporting her from above with her fly, Lorena is running around and providing support herself. She minimizes the use of flying heels on it and often recovers from direct contact.

　Unlike Tsutomu, Lorena and Stephanie must be on top of an area heel to recover from flying heels. Lorena recovered as much as she could by directly touching them, since heels with direct touch are more resilient, and Lorena recovered as much as she could by directly touching them.

　And it should be noted that she managed hate with an accuracy comparable to Tsutomu's and her ability to work with her PT members. Lorena is very good at coordinating with her companions, and she's very accurate in talking to them. And it's not just Lorena, but all of her friends work in unison, and it's easy to see this from the monitor's perspective.

　Aldrete Crow, which is a group of people selected from among many talented people, and Silver Beast, which has been hiding in the dungeon with the same members for a long time. So far, Aldrete Crow is leading the pack, but the crowd is very interested to see what happens next.

　Incidentally, the current healer ratings are split among the labyrinth maniacs, but many still rate Stephanie, who has reached the deepest level right now. However, Lorena and Tsutomu's names were also mentioned a lot, so it was reported in this morning's Dungeon Newspaper that they were practically the top three.


(I can't lose, either.)


　He was very happy with the growth of the two of them, but he had no intention of being left behind just yet. Tsutomu regained his spirits when he saw the two of them doing well and returned to the clan house with great enthusiasm.
