LDM 475 Once again, The Wrath.

For now, Narikin and Co. will be in charge of searching and gathering information in the Holy Kingdom, while I will take it easy and continuing the dungeons renovations.

First, the succubus village, I need to do some preparation so it can be dismantled anytime I need it to, and [Gluttony] will be placed in their place.

Ah, by the way. [Gluttony] is placed on the Master Room for now, any member of my dungeon can use it. The main users are Ichika and Eleca.

And here comes [Wrath] that once I abandoned.

The idea comes to me after watching Ichika get angry; in short, anyone will be mad if their time is wasted.

Well, here comes the next idea

This is a ditch? No, a maze? Start and Finish?

Ichika tilted her head as she traced a ditch in the wall with her finger.

Turn the hourglass to start whoa! Something appeared, oh, I see I must move this to the goal? Is that right?

Thats Ichika for you, what a high level of comprehension. As you may have guessed, you need to move the iron rod that just grew out of the wall with your hand and carry it through the ditch in the wall (it almost a straight path) to the goal. Then you can clear it.

However, she didnt seem to pay attention to the fact that the ditchs rim was painted red, except for the start and finish line.

Oooh, its moving downward on its own; awawa! eh, did it supposed to sink in the middle of the way?

Oh, you failed, penalty time: one stone golem, attack.

I see, you fail if you hit the red line? And its a worthless stone golem. Are you going to put this trick in the warehouse area?

An iron bar that moves down by itself, as if reproducing the gravity. And if you hit the red line, it counts as a fail. You will need to go back and start over.

The stone golem will fall from the hole in the ceiling every time you make a mistake or if you run out of time. If youre not careful, your party members will be crushed under it.

Its dangerous, but since this is a dungeon, this level of danger is inevitable.

thats about it for this trap.

Its pretty funny, isnt it? At least I think it is.

So, this is going to be a [Wrath] mechanism to open the door to the treasure room in the warehouse area.

If you turn the hourglass over, a stick will grow out, and if you carry it to the goal before time runs out, it will open the door, and allow you to enter the room. If you fail, the Stone Golem attacks.

should I make it, so theres no golem attack if you just run out of time? Too kind?

So, this gimmick is also known as an irra-zuma stick! {tl: irritating stick also a pun of Inazuma kick}

This is one of the games that were used in the TV show where there was a prize for completing the game. the original mechanism is to send electric shock with an explosion sound when you fail. But because it was a hassle to prepare the electric current and gunpowder, I replaced it with a golem attack. Maintainability is also essential for the dungeon mechanism.

Also, the rage-like naming of its original, well thats about it.

By the way, I was also thinking about the idea of turning over the hourglass to open the goblin room across the street and have the goblins attack, what do you think?

Thats annoying; you come far to this warehouse area just to deal with a goblin?

Is that your reaction? Then I will use it.

It would be more exciting if there were an obstruction.

I also plan to make minor changes to the maze as more and more people can clear it; I will probably add a rotating wall gimmick and a floor piston gimmick that blocks the passage.

So, if you clear this, youll be able to enter the room with the treasure chest.

Mm, hm.

Its divided into three small rooms, with a total of three treasure chests available. Ill install a small window to look through.

So, you can get three treasures!?

But only one of them can be opened in one clearing.

Wow, here comes the lifting and slamming down your expectation. This is indeed my Masters speciality.

My specialty, huh? Im honored.

So, these contents are random, ranging from magic swords to trash. Ill add more magic swords just in case.

Even I will be furious if I got trash for my efforts.

And if someone else already acquired it, though it will refill itself in half-day, so you may not get anything if its right after the previous guy cleared it.

Oh, well, that will work to make people getting angry and angrier!

This is my rough idea, but it seems the [Wrath] will be completed with this.

*

Every once in a while, I go for a walk in the village of Gollen, and theres a place on its map thats perfect for sunbathing, which is also rarely visited by people. I came there to take a nap.

A broad backyard, a perfect spot for a nap. Ive been eyeing this place for a while now, and Ive used the [Create Golem] to set up a place where I thought it would be perfect for sleeping in the shade of a tree. When I used [Clean] to clear the fallen leaves and dust from the ground, I found just the right place to lay down my bed.

Lets put it down and sleep.

Its another peaceful day in the village of Gollen.

it sure it, huh?

Woahhh!

I jumped in surprise and saw a Wraith Dolce.

Dont surprise me like that?

I mean, Kehma-sama is the one who dares to take a nap in outside like this . You already forgot about the assassin, didnt you?

No, thats not true. I was just trying to be a bait.

Yeah yeah, I believe you, I wish you had notified me then. Ive been entrusted by Haku-sama to escort you after all. Haaa

Dolce sighs. Um, excuse me?

But there havent been any assassins here lately, have there?

I just saw your doggie hunt for one today. Thats one good watchdog.

Seriously? And good job to Niku whove been dealing with it. I will need to reward her later.

Youre investigating the Chaoss Dog and the Holy Kingdom, right? We are also working on it, and Youll have to look into it over there as well.

Uh, for now, I thought Id try to find some sort of [correctly managed dungeon].

A [correctly managed dungeon]? Is that a dungeon revered by the Holy Kingdom? Thats certainly something to be curious about. Oh, by the way, I come to give you the information on the assassin mastermind.

And I received the information from Dolce-san.

Ill share it with Narikin and the others at the time of todays daily report.

Then be my guest and have a safe nap? Ill keep a close watch on you. I will give you sleep paralysis as a service.

Can I actually sleep with that on?

By the way, she is really giving me sleep paralysis. Thats was a valuable experience
