381-Beyond the black




You okay?
It's all right, sir.


 While Eunice said that, she has been watching the first table since yesterday on the guild bench, and she is still rowing the boat, fighting the oncoming sleepiness. And Camille, who was calling out to Eunice, who was using a medic to wake her up, also looked at her daughter, who was staring at the first stand with a swallowing look on her face.

 All the clan members of the Infinite Circle are also around Amira, and they are still waiting for Tsutomu to get out of the black gate. Although there is a lot of attention within the guild for that matter, there is little interest in the most platform.

 After all, twenty-four hours had already passed since Tsutomu entered the dungeon, so there was no chance of victory for him. The bored searchers have been glancing at each other, but the people on the front lines have already dived into the dungeon. Amidst such a situation, only Alma of the Red Devil Gang was waiting near the Black Gate in the same manner, perhaps asleep and awake or absent.

 At the Shentai Market, those who were betting on Tsutomu's life and death and onlookers who wanted to see him die had gathered, but the general crowd and labyrinth maniacs had already lost interest and were paying attention to Stephanie at the second level. She has been hiding in the hundred levels since yesterday and seems to be searching for a way to attack the blazing old dragon, and Lorena's figure can be seen in the third platform.


(We have to get her back on her feet at all costs. But what is to be done........
Ugh, it's moving!


 Camille, who also knew of Tsutomu's cowardice to some extent, was thinking about this when Eunice raised her fox ears and tail to their full height and shouted loudly. At the same time, for some reason, the god's eyes showed a close-up of the undead Amy, and a pea-sized Tsutomu in the background far behind her.


''Hey, why Amy! Projection of the other side! You are in my way!
Yeah, I'm sorry about that, okay?


 The real Amy, who has already returned to the guild, apologized for that, but she didn't seem to be convinced somehow. And after the playful image of Amy was played for a little while, the perspective immediately switched. There is Tsutomu, who has been severely injured to the point of near death by a blood weapon, and Black, who is already in front of me.


'Dumplings! We're making it!


 Seeing a barrier dumpling filled with life-like shimmering green qi stuffed inside his clothes, Eunice, who had a worried look on her face, took a turn and gasped. At the same time, Tsutomu's body recovered at a regenerating rate due to the effects of the overheal, but a large shield flew in to interfere with it.


''Goooooooo...!


 Garum gritted his teeth at the image of the undead in his own form hunting down Tsutomu, letting out a bite of anger. Still, Tsutomu was not immediately killed, but a dagger flew at his torso and stabbed him, causing him to roll on the ground.

 And just before the two undead men put a stop to Tsutomu, the blackness fell and the image of the first stand went completely black. Some of the clan members gasped as they saw Tsutomu, who was still reaching out to leave something behind, get swallowed up.

 Eunice shook her head sadly as she saw that the battle was over, and Alma removed herself from the wall she was leaning against and headed for the Black Gate.


'Miss Amira,'
"Well I'll give you credit for showing some guts. I'll give you a kick in the ass.


 Amira, who had regained some degree of composure by sleeping and waking up since then, had enough time to return Daryl's words with a vicious smile. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most of your time and energy to get the most out of it.

 Perhaps because of Amira's words, the clan members of the infinite circle also began to prepare to warmly welcome Tsutomu. Amy carries a change of clothes under her arm, and Garum turns to guard with the gatekeeper, just in case. Hannah looked fidgety as if she was preparing some words, and Diniel took the elastic cord to tie her ponytail and let her hair down.


''Well is it this late?''


 But even after nearly thirty seconds passed since the image of the first stand was swallowed by jet black, there was no change at all. Normally, a few seconds after death would have been enough to switch out the guardianship, but the second guardianship still shows Aldrete Crow's PT led by Stephanie fighting the blazing old dragon.

 As a minute passed, the pitch black image of the first stand became brighter and brighter as if welcoming the dawn. The guild explorers began to buzz with this never-before-seen phenomenon, and even the guild staff, who were used to seeing the divine platform, rolled their eyes.

 And as the cloudy old castle gradually came into view, Tsutomu, who had been lying haphazardly on the ground, swiftly raised his upper body. Then, after touching his own body with his left hand to check it, he got up, holding his staff under his right arm for support. Garum and Amy, who are undead, are staring at that figure with an unconcerned look on their faces.

 It doesn't change regardless of whether Tsutomu drinks the potion in the fine bottle attached to his waist, and he doesn't seem to show any particular movement. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most out of your time in the future.


''.........a, ah, ah, ah, ah. Ah, can you see this? I think I can see that it's moving.'


 Then Tsutomu instantly became jovial when he found God's Eye and waved his safe left hand. At such a strange scene on the first platform, Eunice, who was watching from the front row, had a completely pouty look on her face.


''Eeeeee. ''Garum, eeeeeeee.''
..........
....
'Amy, would you pull this out first? This one, this one,
!
'Oh, thank God. It didn't hurt. Thanks, I can borrow that.


 It's a good idea to have a good time with your friends. It's a good idea to make sure that you have the right information on the right person.


''Huh? Huh?
What's going on?
..........
'This, this sounds like another ... extraordinary thing to do, doesn't it?


 Tsutomu is reflected in the Kamidae, who is interacting with the two undead as if they were PT members. There was no one in the guild who could explain why this was happening, and they were simply baffled.

 Then Tsutomu, who placed one half of his twin swords on the ground, looked up at the blazing old dragon, which was large enough to easily crush him, and abruptly uttered a skill.


''Airblade. Whoa, I'm not turning around. Alright, now I'm going to steadily chip away at this blazing old dragon...''


 When Tsutomu said that, the image of the first unit was abruptly cut off. At the same time, the image of the second unit also went completely dark as if the power was turned off.


''Gehee!
..........


 Then suddenly the black gates opened and Tsutomu landed face first on the floor, screaming as if a frog had been crushed. The people in the guild could only see it, and in the silence, only Tsutomu's moan of pain could be heard.

 And for some reason, Stephanie, Luke and the others who followed Tsutomu out formed a shape that hovered over him, stopping him from writhing in pain.


 oo


 To put it simply, what Tsutomu did was to take advantage of a bug. However, Tsutomu, who has been conquering God's dungeons in the labyrinth city for almost two years now, is a "Live Dungeon! He had confirmed that the bugs and frameworks he had seen in the past were no longer useful. This was especially noticeable in the 90th level Lord's Narrow End of Life.

 The "Live Dungeon!", in which avoiding attacks that would always petrify it would cause an error and stop the behavior of the Narrow End of Life. A bug that occurred in But in this world, while you could avoid petrification attacks, they didn't stop behaving, and all the other minor bugs seemed to be reduced to realistic standards.

'Live Dungeon!' The bugs found in this game are not available in But Tsutomu, who knows hundreds of bug cases, can easily understand the other side of God's dungeon. And the first thing he noticed was the unique blackness of this world, which allows only the searchers to leave the dungeon after 24 hours.

 That black appears to be a horrible, unknown thing that kills searchers from the side, but from Tsutomu's point of view, which has been cooled down by his anger at the management, it's still just a specification. However, in the eyes of Tsutomu, it was only a specification, as he had become calm due to his anger towards the management. Taking advantage of this, Tsutomu thought that by becoming an undead himself, he could become a monster and cross the blackness.

 If he could use a dango raise, which is equivalent to a re-raise, he thought about using it to cross over the black, but he decided on a different plan since it wouldn't activate unless there was a target to revive.

 In order for me to become undead, I would probably have to die, but since I was the only one surviving, if I really died, I would be returned to the guild immediately. So Tsutomu decided to take advantage of misjudged deaths, which had been a rare occurrence in the past. He assumes that if the searcher is in a situation where he is clearly going to die, even if he is not dead, his body will emit light, so he will take advantage of that specification and assume that he will be judged dead and become undead.

 However, if he became completely undead, that would also be the end of it, so Tsutomu maintained the situation where his left half of his body was a monster by protecting his left half of his body with holy attribute equipment, holy water, and holy water. He then stacked multiple dango over heels, leaving the monster's half body intact, leaving room for the body to recover and avoid instant death from the black pressure.

 And so, once you get past the black, a situation is created where the explorer is assumed to be completely dead. The only thing left is the monster that exists. Therefore, Tsutomu, who had recovered and escaped the difficulty, was also judged a monster and treated by the undead Garum, Amy, and the Blazing Old Dragon as one of their own.

 This is the reason why it's so important to have a good balance between the two. Tsutomu was going to take advantage of this specification and try to defeat the fiery old dragon by staying up all night for two more days, but the gods didn't seem to allow him to do so.


'I'm not supposed to be dead, though.


 Tsutomu was forced out of the dungeon despite surviving, and at the same time Aldrete Crow's PT, who had been diving to the hundredth level, was also ejected as collateral damage.

 And Tsutomu, who had explained to the guild that he had gone behind the specs and brought them to that situation, sighed and rubbed his eyes as if he was tired.


''I'm sorry to be in a place where someone seems to want to say something, but can I get some sleep once? It's been a long time since I've stayed up all night, so it's been tough.
Wow, I've been up all night too! Just explain in more detail! They're all gibberish!


 He had returned from the divine dungeon, so he was physically fine, but mentally he was driven and very tired, and Tsutomu fell asleep in a half-unconscious state, not even paying attention to Eunice's voice.
