The number of spectators on the God's Table outside was so frightening that the Babenberg family had gone to the trouble of using barrier magic to set up spectator seats. However, even within the guild, where there were only people related to searchers, the attention to the first platform was tremendous, and almost all the known searchers in the crowded room were also watching.


''Ah. No?
No, not even a Tutom could do that if he's focused on a target like that.
I don't know. Maybe they'll get through the first time again?
'I can't say for sure that I can't do it!　And I lost a lot of money betting last time!
Right?


　The explorers scream in disappointment when they see Corina dead, as her tank is suddenly ignored and focused on her after her brain regenerates from the blazing old dragon. A few minutes later, when Korina comes out to be shipped out of the guild's black gate, the explorers move to give her the best position to see the most platforms out of respect.

　Basically, the people around her often sneer at or are indifferent to those who are spat out of the black gate dressed in hemp-colored 《asairo》 clothes. You will be able to find a lot of people who will be willing to go out of their way to give up a good seat unless they are very successful.

　However, Corina, who was a bit suspicious of the fact that she was a member of the founding army, was able to stand up to her peer healers in a way that impressed them until the middle of the game. And in the end, she was inexcusably killed despite being able to manage the hate. The searchers were calling out to each other with a heart of compassion, which they rarely show, probably because of the rumored number of hundred levels, which is a good number.


It's a good job. There you go, this place is free.
What?
Okay. Put this on.
'Well...'
You want some?
Okay.


　Corina, who is being taken care of in many ways like a child being cared for at a gathering of relatives, was being entertained at a table where she could easily see the best table without understanding the unusual situation. And Leleia, Xeno and Hannah, who were killed by the blazing old dragon and came out of the black gate one after another, were treated in the same way.


''Whoa, Diniel, you're sticking it out!
Unusual, isn't it?


　In the midst of all this, Diniel, who had lost one of his arms, was showing a tenacity that had never been seen before. He dodged the attack of the burning old dragon, which was approaching its perfect state, while the wind pressure dragged his body to the ground to collect his friends' belongings. In the end, he thrusts an arrow of lightning into the burning old dragon's body with his right hand and desperately tries to bite it, leaving Korina and the others gasping for breath.

　But Diniel's good fight was in vain, and in the end his grip on his right hand was lost, and he was swung into the outer wall of the old castle, where he died. Even after he was annihilated in this way, the image of the blazing old dragon was still displayed on the first stand, but after a few minutes, the image was switched to Aldrete Crow challenging the ninety-nine levels.

　Then Diniel jumped out of the guild's black gates like a frozen tuna, and took a passive position in a push-up to avoid hitting his face on the floor. But in the end, he put his face on the wooden floor gingerly as if he had lost his motivation and let out a long, depressing sigh.


'Um, I'm sorry--'
"Hm.
Oh, thank you.
No need to apologize.


　Before Corina, who was already waiting in front of the black gate, could try to apologize, Diniel held out a magic bag filled with everyone's equipment and other items, and told her that without turning his gaze to her teary eyes.


''But Diniel-san, you were working so hard, so........''
It doesn't matter if it doesn't lead to a win.
'It's all right. Thanks to that time we were able to watch that dragon's movements closely and we were able to gather information. The time that Diniel-san made for us was not wasted. .........And Tsutomu-san, if you've seen that, I won't blame you for your previous mistakes anymore.
I don't know.


　Before Corina could say anything to Diniel, who spat out, a sly-faced Hannah came up to her and put her elbow on her hip.


It's not a bad idea. Nice fight!
Oh, that guy who died before I got to the dodging tank.
Huh!
'Hahaha!　Then I wonder what kind of reputation I'll end up with!
..........


　Xeno who interrupted the conversation with enthusiasm on the way in spite of Hanna who was upset with her wings. Leleia, who seems to have something to think about after seeing how she collected everyone's equipment and still didn't give up. And Diniel sighed heavily in front of Corrina who was slumped in front of him.


''It's impossible to break through a hundred levels at first sight. That was outstanding even among the hierarchical masters we've had.''
...Yes.
But it's not impossible to get at him. It's just a matter of a few more dives and we'll have a clue as to what to do. We'll break through the hundred levels first and reveal that clan leader's nose.
Oh, you're good at that.
''I agree with you on that. I don't want to be called a token army, and if I could, I'd love to have the magic stones I got at the hundredth level to stir things up in front of me.
'Hmmm, that sounds pretty interesting too!　Then we'll open another bottle of good wine!
Well, I'll go easy on you...


　Inspired by Diniel, who said that with the look of a hunter aiming for the perfect prey, Hannah's eyes shone, and Leleia and Xeno smiled fearlessly. Seeing Corina, who was advising the four of them while half-heartedly trying to stop them, the searchers who were around also sent words of encouragement.


　oo


　Perhaps it's because there is a break now that Corina and the others have been wiped out, or maybe it's because more and more people are leaving the area around the God's table, so the security team is guiding them to move to safety. The first thing to do is to buy some refreshments while Amy and the others are getting some snacks, and Tsutomu has seen them leave the barrier magic seat for a while, ignoring Smith, who seems to want to talk about the hundred levels of something or other, and thinking about it.


(How the hell am I supposed to deal with such an ungainly thing and have to take on it as soon as possible?)


　Even though he was repeating the images he had seen earlier on the divine platform over and over again, Tsutomu was inwardly deflated.

　He had prepared dozens of times in advance for 'Live Dungeon! In addition, the prerequisites to break through before anyone else are the same. At worst, I could ask Korina and the others to delay the attack by using the clan leader's authority, but that would make the relationship with the clan members worse. Still, if it came down to it, I would do it, but it's an option I don't really want to take.

　Besides, Aldrete Crow is likely to reach a hundred levels already, but there's no way to stop them for sure. The PT led by Stephanie is one of the worst of the enemies we can currently assume, and if they are to be attacked first, this is the place to be.


(O(O)'s characteristics are the same, but its size is different to begin with. And it also has a combination of characteristics like the blazing old dragon's corrosive breath and perhaps an obsession with life. (Considering that there are other new attack patterns like the end of the world...)


　Since O is a raid battle, players are sent to the inside of the body with a PT to destroy organs with dozens of people. That fiery old dragon is a smaller version of this. And just thinking that there is something else is depressing.

Today, Korina and the others would still be replenishing the equipment destroyed by the Corrosion Breath and the potions they had consumed, and they would probably try to reach the hundredth level again. They would still be able to get information there, but to be honest, after being shown that heart-stopping scene, I couldn't take it too easy.

　It's possible that this is Hannah's lucky punch, but the fact that she threw a strong shock to the heart with a palm-level thrust, which she doesn't usually do, makes it clear that she has a clear intention. Perhaps it was Korina's idea, but stopping the heart, even if only temporarily, is a 'live dungeon! It was an impossible phenomenon in


(It wouldn't be good if Corina verified it for too long. If we don't dive tomorrow, we may not make it in time...)


　Perhaps Corina, who has experience as a nurse and knows about the inner workings of a person, might find a way to destroy the heart in the early stages. Even if the heart is destroyed once, it can be regenerated again, but it can still do a lot of damage. If such a method could be found, there's a chance that they could capture the first hundred levels of the building in a heartbeat.


(All the preparations up to now have been destroyed. How could this happen...)


　The fact that a hundred levels of hierarchical masters had been changed in specifications, of all things, and the fear that Korina might suddenly beat him to it. If the possibility of a return was still picked up by this, what was the agony and effort of the past?


(..........how could I lose? No matter how many levels of hierarchy there are, it must not happen even in the unlikely event that I'm the first to go ahead of you. (What do you think I've been working so hard for?)


　There are of course such reasons, to accept the reality that no matter how far you run and turn away, you can never escape. But what's more non-negotiable is the fact that someone else will take the 100 levels that I had decided to capture first. That's 'Live Dungeon! My pride in playing the game for many years will not allow me to do so.


("Live Dungeon! (To an unplayed newbie, what kind of a cripple is that if you can't get to a hundred levels first?


　If that were to happen, I wouldn't be able to face my former friends. I wouldn't be able to face my former friends, the ones I had gotten into to the point of death in my heyday, and the time I had spent playing even when I was alone. I didn't want to do that.

　Tsutomu, who had unknowingly gripped the chair railing tightly because of these thoughts, was looking suspiciously at Smith, who felt the sensation slightly through the barrier.
