It was announced in the newspaper three days ago that the Infinite Circle would be taking on the seventy levels this evening, and there was a buzz around the single digits. There were now three clans that were challenging the seventy levels. There was debate among the labyrinth maniacs as to which one of them would break through first, and some of the folks had even made it the subject of a bet.

　As the Infinite Circle dived into the sixty-nine levels and began to search for the Black Gate, the crowd took up their positions in their seats, predicting that if it looked like this, they would be reflected in the second place.


''You're finally going to take on the challenge. We've been preparing for quite a long time, haven't we?''
'The average level was low. Well, I still think we should get on with it and increase the number of attempts.
Hey. I'm gonna get another shot at Tutom.
Nope.


　The labyrinth maniacs changed places, mouthing off, and some spectators flowed to the second platform, caught by the wave of people. Among them was a huffy-faced Eunice and a perfectly normal-looking Alma holding a staff.


'Five skewers,'
Yeah.
Brother. Give me ale ... three glasses!
Yes. Then it's one thousand two hundred Gs.


　The crowd moves like a herd, buying snacks from the stalls as they do so. The drink vendors also gathered near the second platform as they watched the flow of people, and the food delivery vendors also kept an eye out for customers and called out to them.

　Then the infinite circle found the black gate and entered the 70th level, and as expected, it was projected onto the second platform. The spectators finished preparing food and drinks and sat down one by one on the seats and benches provided.


''Well, well, let's see what happens.''
Infinity Circle I see you've raised your average level, how high is it?
I thought you were about sixty-six?
Hmm. A little lower than the Silver Beast, I guess. But I need a feather tank........


　Among the infinite circle, Hannah received the least amount of attention, and the name of the feather tank was also not well received, as folks familiar with the topic of dungeons would know about it. Even the articles on the seventy levels of the Infinite Circle of Seventy that were predicted in advance by the labyrinth maniacs, there were a few predictions here and there that Hanna would be a drag.

　The Aldrete Crow and Silver Beast tanks had adopted a strategy of buying time on the premise of dying against the Mounted Golem, a strategy in which two tanks with high VITs would take turns hating and the healer would revive and stabilize them as soon as one of them died. It has become a set-in-stone for mounted golem battles.

　Since such a set in stone was widespread, there wasn't much hope for Hannah, who was famous for dying quickly. Some articles written by the labyrinth maniacs predicted Hannah's success about forty percent of the time, but many of the spectators didn't have that much detailed information, so many of them only knew that she was a feather tank.

　Daryl attracts the golem army that appears as they are released one after another, and Hannah attracts the mounted golems that are still slow to move. Daryl doesn't wear a helmet like Garum, but instead uses his wide vision and hearing to detect the monsters' movements and reliably catch them with his large shield.

　The crowd gets excited and the labyrinth maniacs roar at his strength as Daryl stands up, unconcerned even after being blown away by a bomb rock. If they can handle this much in the first game, it's a big deal.


It's not going to change the three strongest tanks, it seems. That's tough, Daryl.
It's so much more stable than the others. He's just like Bittman.
At this rate, I might be able to take it alone at the end of the day.


　The labyrinth enthusiasts are taking notes when they see Daryl, who has become even more stable since Amira has stopped turning into a dragon and is good at handling bomb rocks. On the other hand, few of them are looking at Hannah. This is because the current mounted golem hasn't made much of a move yet, so anyone can avoid it.


''Whoa!　Awesome!


　However, the crowd was easily distracted by the flashy looking ones, so Diniel, who unleashed a stream arrow, was attracting a lot of attention. She was currently one of the best archers in the world, and she was also considered an excellent attacker when she was enrolled in the Golden Investigation.


'The ace attacker is still Diniel. You can't have much of an attribute attack, so Amira is in charge of small fry. As expected.
'Hmm, yes. By the way, Tsutomu's support is as undisturbed as ever. It's nice to see.
You're right. It's like a freak show.


　The lady who was a labyrinth maniac was watching Tsutomu's flying support skills as if she was watching a shooting star. Stephanie, who had a similar standing, also had a moderately good reputation, but sometimes she couldn't match her allies' movements and was disorganized.

　However, Tsutomu's support was not disrupted at all from the divine platform. His blue Haste hit the seldom-moving Hannah without missing, and he also dropped his ochre-colored protection on Daryl from above with precision. The couple felt a kind of beauty in the efficient aerial support that was done without delay.

　Doren, who had his own workshop, had even taken the trouble to get a reserved seat to see how the heavy armor Daryl was using was doing. Next to her, the girl from the magic stone exchange office was also sitting a little next to her.


''Ho. Daryl's guy, he's doing it.
Oh, aren't you one of Garum's disciples?　That girl,
You know it well.
Oh, yeah.


　The girl looked at Daryl, who was reflected in the second table with a sullen face, and saw Tsutomu performing support recovery from above. Thanks to the accountant of the infinite circle named Oli, who recently came out and signed a contract with us, the flame demon stones are coming in all the time and making money. So that eye is favorable.

　As it is, I continue to chip away at the mounted golems with Diniel's Stream Arrow for a while, while all eyes are on Daryl and Amira, who are dealing with a large number of golem armies. The mounted golems began to scatter a large amount of Bomb Golems to the surface.


''Alright, let's take a break.''
That's good. But the real work begins here!　Let's see what happens!


　The crowd, which has seen the Mount Golem battle many times, moves like they've been trained to do, and goes to replenish the missing food and drinks. The contractors who are contracted to deliver the meals are also instantly busy, running around with boxes of dishes in their hands.


''Ah!　Yes!　I have to show you the mark!
'Oh!　That's right!
This is great armor, I'd appreciate it!
It's Doren Workshop!


　As they were approached by God's Eye, they began to blatantly advertise in a panic, causing the crowd to laugh. The labyrinth maniacs couldn't help but chuckle and put Doren Workshop's name in the article. The person in question, Doren, also held his head in pain with his hand.

　Then the middle game began. From here on, the number of miscellaneous enemies would decrease, but instead the mounted golems would move faster and the tanks would become very tougher. So the crowd and some labyrinth maniacs thought that once Daryl was left in charge of the mounted golems, Hannah would take on the diminished number of golem armies.

　However, that expectation was wrong and Hannah would continue to take over the mounted golem. The crowd nodded their heads at the situation.


''Eh?　You're just going to let the feather tank take care of it?
Maybe it's Daryl.
Oh, I see.


　While the crowd was buzzing at the unexpected continuation of Hannah's pitch, the labyrinth enthusiasts were exchanging opinions even louder.


Okay, Hannah, you're pitching. My prediction was correct.
No, you're just preserving the shaved Daryl. The feather tanks are just cut here.
'No, no, Hannah-chan isn't a normal tank to begin with. She's an evasive tank, so it doesn't matter if she has a low VIT.
...avoidance tank. I'm sure they'll crush you in a heartbeat.


　Some of the explorers are imitating Hannah and avoiding tanks, but they haven't gotten any results. The labyrinth maniacs, who knew that even Aldoret Crow hadn't produced much result, looked at Hannah, who was flying with stinking eyes.

　Hanna was also confirmed to have been lightly hit by Breathless and collapsed several times in the fire dragon battle. So Hannah's reputation was not that high among the labyrinth maniacs.


'No, I've seen quite a bit of Mugen no Ring, and Hannah looked good. She's got good movement, and I think she'd do pretty well even against a mounted golem.
Hmm. That's it.
Plus, it's good for your eyes.
...you.


　Hannah's equipment looks like traditional clothing and her breasts are almost too big to overflow. Furthermore, since the avoidance tank often moves around due to standing around, it is very gratifying to see from a man's point of view. The man who is a labyrinth maniac looked at his long-time friend with dismay.

　In the midst of all this, Hannah had to take the Mounted Golem's hate alone, which surprisingly didn't fall apart. Fast moving under the hazing, Hannah moved in all directions and avoided the mounted golem's attacks one after another.

　If she gets hit by even a single blow, Hannah, who has a low VIT, is sure to die. However, the attacks showed no signs of hitting her.


''Countbuster!''


　And unlike the previous tanks, she even fights back. The crowd, who hadn't expected much of Hannah, began to question her as she didn't die in the middle, unlike her previous reputation.


'Huh?　Isn't that just fine?　That girl,
Yeah. I hear he's going to die soon.


　The crowd continued to watch her fight with anticipation as Hannah attracted the mounted golem by herself and even attacked, and the crowd continued to watch her fight with anticipation. The labyrinth maniacs were also divided into two groups: those who guessed the prediction and looked smug, and those who missed and looked dissatisfied.


''How could you have guessed it? On that one.''
Yeah. It sounds like you're putting it off, but that's probably not Hannah's conscious.


　And a bit of attention was paid to Tsutomu, who continues to apply the Haste to Hannah, who is toying with the Mounted Golem with her quick movements. Tsutomu was also applying the Haste to Hannah first, while not missing any other support. The labyrinth maniacs and some of the spectators roared at his high skill. Eunice, who was mixed in with them, was engrossed in it, watching and writing notes.

　After that, Hannah continued to take the Mounted Golem's hate without collapsing, and even with the addition of the heat ray attack, she didn't die. The crowd erupted and applauded the unexpected success. And they were also surprised at how Tsutomu was pinned despite the heat ray attack.


''What?　Doesn't it work?
That robe!　Not strong enough!


　The performance of the Scorching Rock Robe that dropped from Borseyeer surprised the labyrinth maniacs. Even the equipment developed by Aldoret Crow and Silver Beast couldn't completely disable the heat rays. They had seen that even healers wearing countermeasure equipment could suffer terrible injuries if they were hit by heat rays, so they were astonished at the unharmed Tsutomu.

　Hannah continued to deal with the Mounted Golem alone for a while after that, and finally took over with Daryl, unharmed. Many of the spectators spontaneously applauded for his amazing performance, and even the labyrinth maniacs who hadn't expected it clapped their hands with a look of being beaten.

　Daryl was also able to stand steady without being grabbed or trampled by the mounted golem. He watched the mounted golem battle playing on the God's Table carefully and drilled the move into his head. He would get hit by a bullet to his arm and get injured, but he was never fatally attacked.

　The mounted golem's ranged attack began while the labyrinth maniacs were revising Hannah and Daryl's ratings upwards. Daryl entered the Burning Rock Robe with Tsutomu, while the other three left at once.


'Looks like that robe will prevent the ranged attack from happening.
'I didn't expect you to be that good........ As I recall, you dropped it from the Borsayer, didn't you?　Then tomorrow we'll start hunting borsayers. I'll write an article about it.


　While some labyrinth maniacs started writing articles about the Borsayer ahead of time, the Infinite Circle also surpassed the range attack. The crowd began to buzz, expecting another shot to break through to this point on the first try, the Infinite Circle.


''Could it be that we have another shot at breaking through?''
I don't know how likely it is. What the hell is he doing? Isn't she crazy?　Do you actually have a unique skill or something?


　The female labyrinth maniacs looked at Tsutomu as if they were looking at an unidentified person. The crowd, on the other hand, was boiling with anticipation for another shot at breaking through. Then the battle with the Mounted Golem, whose recoil from the ranged attack had disappeared, opened up.

　Hanna also began to use the Feather Dance that Silver Beast often used, and the mounted golem's view was blocked. Hanna uses more and more skills as if she were to fold up.


'What the hell was that guy!　That's awesome!
Well, it's a dodging tank?　That's great!　I haven't taken a single shot yet!


　The crowd cheered when they saw Hannah not crumbling even after taking on the mounted golem alone for a long time. And in the middle of what seemed to be going to be a straight up decision, it happened.

　The mounted golem collapses in a large figure and unleashes a long-range attack after absorbing the rock into its body. The crowd and the labyrinth maniacs were astonished at the action, which they had never seen before. And the crowd screamed as Hannah died.


''No, there's still Daryl to be saved, so I guess I'll win.
I'm sure Daryl can handle it.


　However, the labyrinth maniacs were calm. Looking at what happened earlier, Daryl would be able to receive a stable mount golem and earn enough hate. In the meantime, if Tsutomu revived Hanna, the battle situation would stabilize.

　However, contrary to that expectation, Tsutomu immediately revived Hannah. Daryl still hasn't been able to get enough hate. The crowd could see that the Mount Golem was heading towards Tsutomu.


''Huh?　Why?　Raise here?　Are you in a hurry?
Oh, come on. What are you doing?


　The spectators who were chortling at Tsutomu and letting out a sigh of disappointment. Even the labyrinth maniacs raised their eyebrows at Tsutomu's improbable mistake. But soon after that, Daryl was caught by the Mounted Golem.


''Huh!　Hey, hey, hey!　What's going on?!
Daryl!
'Oh!　Little Daryl!


　A yellow scream went up when they saw Daryl thrown away by the mounted golem as it was. And the crowd let out a sigh as if they had given up when they saw the mounted golem that went towards Tsutomu at full speed.


''Ugh!　That's it! I was so close.
Well, I don't know. It's a first time for me. Let's see what happens next time.


　If Tsutomu is killed by Mount Golem, he can no longer be revived. The remaining Diniel and Amira might be able to shave it off, but unless things went too well, it would be impossible. The crowd was in a dismissive mood, and even the labyrinth maniacs began to put down their pens, looking disappointed.

　Tsutomu, however, surprisingly persisted. If the healer was targeted by the mounted golem at the end of the game, he would most likely die immediately, but Tsutomu was still not dead.



No, but it's over. You don't look like you're getting any hate at all.


　The advantage of being able to completely nullify the heat rays by the robe of the burning rock, and the shooting at Diniel's joints. Those two things mesh together and Tsutomu still survives. The crowd stops to look at his persistence for a little while longer.


'Ah, it's hard when it's Hanna in these situations. Does it take a long time to make hate money?
I guess so. The only skill I have is Combat Cry. And Countbuster takes a long time to build up, too. Can Tsutomu survive until Hannah can get the hate...?


　The labyrinth maniacs are watching over Tsutomu with their breaths. Even though he could nullify the heat rays, he was still pretty close to just avoiding the waving hands. There were times when he would have been hit for sure if it wasn't for Diniel's support.

　And finally, Tsutomu was snatched by the mounted golem's fist and he was blown wide open and crashed into the wall, a white mage with a low VIT would have died instantly. The crowd let out a tragic cry.

　But Tsutomu was alive. The crowd and the labyrinth maniacs were stunned to see him sending support to Hannah, who was able to get her hands off the wall and regain her hate. Then, the Divine Table Market was enveloped by the loudest cheers ever.


''Huh!　How come you're not dead?!
'........Barrier, you can't call it that, right? Eh?　Why?


　Although Labyrinth Maniacs had seen Tsutomu granting barriers in the fire dragon battles and other battles, it was unlikely that he had that much strength. The insurance for the barrier multiple deployment that Tsutomu was doing hadn't yet been shown in the actual battle, which confused the Labyrinth Maniacs.

　Then Hannah pulled the Mounted Golem as it was, and Diniel shot a Stream Arrow. The area around the divine table was filled with a frenzy, so much so that they forgot about Daryl, who hadn't returned.


''Stream Arrow!''


　With that attack, the Mounted Golem's body turned black and went silent for the last time. A storm of hot air broke out on the second platform.


''Holy shit!　Another shot!
Ooh!
'Hahahaha!　I don't get it!


　Cheers were directed at Tsutomu, who had broken through the hierarchical lord in one shot again, and the labyrinth maniacs and newspaper reporters had a grin on their faces as a good story arrived. Eunice, who was watching near the second platform, gave a light round of applause, while Alma stared at Tsutomu.
