CHAPTER 150: UNUSUAL PHENOMENON IN THEDUNGEON

Nn? Are

While Helens level is going up smoothly, as we go through the dungeon, we saw something lying on the way .

What the?

Al and the others seem to have seen it, and when we approach it while being wary, a huge spider thats about the same size as us humans, was upside down .

With a black body and sharp legs, and a vicious mouth, the spider, even though were getting closer to it, didnt move .

Wha, whats going on?

Helen says so, with a little powerful look on her face, but no one answers .

Then, as Al decided, she approached it, and when she examined the spiders body, she opened her eyes .

Its dead .

Eh!?

Its dead? Now, now then, as we see it, it didnt move at all, and I guess thats because it was turned upside down, but

But that wasnt what surprised us .

Why, why is there a dead body left?

Yes, in this world, first of all, when a monster is defeated, it becomes particles of light and disappears, and if you are lucky, it will leave a drop item .

I havent seen it yet, so I dont know, but I wonder if humans will also disappear as light particles?

Anyway, the defeated monsters disappear as particles of light, then each of it becomes experience value, and it remains unchanged that theyll sometimes leave items further .

But in front of us, theres certainly a spiders corpse .

This is also my first time seeing a monster in this state . No matter how I think about it, its not normal .

I originally lived on earth, and now I got used to the common sense of another world, but Saria, Al, and Helen, must have lived with the common sense that defeated monsters will always disappear as particles of light . Thats why they were more shocked and confused than I am .

When each of them was puzzled by the corpse of a spider in front of us, suddenly, the dungeon began to tremble greatly .

Wha, what!?

The heck, what is happening!

We crouched down on the spot, and when we endured the shaking, the shaking eventually stopped before long .

In this dungeon, what the heck is going on?

I dont know However, theres a possibility that the owner of those footprints is the suspect . Just keep that in mind .

As Al says, its not easy to connect it, but when these strange things happen up to this point, it just seemed like the owner of those footprints was involved .

After a certain amount of inspection, we went forward again .

From time to time on the way, corpses, similar to the spider earlier, were seen lying around, and we became more and more wary of the people who are ahead of us .

Even though Ive come here to raise my level, its been strange

As one would expect, a phenomenon that a monsters corpse remains is, Ive never seen it . Theres nothing I can do about this .

I, have also lived in the forest, and some of the monsters there died due to old age, but they also disappeared, so this is also the first time Ive ever seen this phenomenon

While Al and the others have a strong expression somewhere, I came to a certain idea .

Since, theres no drop item, in a sense, we can get all the materials left in it, right?

Of course, in this world where drop items are basic, its nothing but eerie, but its also a good deal in a way .

The question is, what kind of existence is the person involved in this phenomenon

As I proceed while thinking about such things, we eventually came in front of a strangely luxurious door .

The monsters that could raise Helens level no longer showed up halfway, so we came in front of the boss room, but

By the way, what is Helens current level?

Eh? Etto Its 488 .

Ah You havent reached yet the Transcendental huh .

She came here with the intention of becoming a Transcendental, but I felt sorry to her for not being able to achieve it .

There was no particular drop item that Helen could use, so after that, we could return and wait for the monsters to spring up again, or wait for her level to rise by defeating the boss that is behind this door

Then Helen says in a bit of a hurry .

No, but I was originally at level 203 and Ive reached this level, and Seiichi-sensei made me strong enough .

But what will you do then? Just turn back like this, and continue to defeat monsters thatll spring up?

Sarias plan is fine, but

Al looks at the door while saying so .

Basically, only one party can participate in the boss room . Thats why, by the time this door opens, theres the possibility that the owner of those footprints would either have defeated the boss or was defeated by it Im quite uneasy . If possible, I would like to gather the identity and information of the owner of those footprints that is the cause of the mysterious phenomenon of the monsters corpse on the way .

But by the time this door opens, youll almost hardly see that person, right?

I guess so . Whether hes dead or alive, I dont think well meet anyway . But I can still get some information . If he can defeat the boss of this dungeon, then he has that much force, and if hes dead its cruel, but that only removes one factor to worry about .

Al said that in a sigh, and looks at us again .

Thats why, before I turn back, I want to inspect the inside of this Boss room once . Then Ill turn back again, and lets resume Helens leveling up, but is that okay?

Of course, Im fine with it!

Yes, its alright for me too .

I have no objection either . Besides, its better to check the Boss room and then turn back and its possible that monsters may spawn up in the dungeon .

We all agreed and decided to look inside the door in front of us once .

Well, then well wait for a while until the door opens

At the moment I said that, the door in front of us began to open slowly .

It looks like, the battle inside is over .

Once we look at each other, we tighten our minds and step into the door .

Then, a meadow spreads out inside the door, and like the time in Zoras dungeon, even though were inside the dungeon, it was as bright as noon .

When I was surprised by the sudden changes in the environment because weve traveled on a cave-like road so far, Al called out to us in a tense voice .

Hey look at that

Eh? Tsu!?

When Al prompted me, I turn my eyes in the same direction

What, the hell, is that

Scary

A part of the lush grassland has withered as if a gaping hole has opened, and there are huge grasshoppers, mantises, beetles and centipedes in the surrounding area, and all insect-type monsters scattered in upside down position .

And in the center of it, a man with a gray hair and blue eye, was standing unarmed, and alone .

What the heck, Oi Why did the door open, youre still here!?

When Al asks so with maximum vigilance, the gray-haired man noticed us now .

Nn~? Ah, here here .

Despite Al and Helen being wary of him, the gray-haired man approached us as if he was taking a walk .

Sto, stop!

When Al holds up her weapon and yells, the gray-haired man stops there .

It makes me sad that youre so cautious .

. . Are the fallen monsters and monsters on the way, your work?

Eh? Ah, that is . Yeah, thats right .

The man who admitted it with an Aah, never stops smiling .

Then why are you, the one who cleared this boss room, still here?

As Al says, originally, only one party can challenge the boss room in the dungeon . Thats why its impossible to join other parties when theyre in the boss room, and if the party that challenged it first cleared it, the door cannot be opened if they didnt go to the transition room ahead or got annihilated .

However, the man simply told us without specially hiding it .

That is, I killed the rules of the dungeon .

You killed, the rule?

When I twist my head around his words that dont make sense, the man deepened his smile and bowed to us politely .

Im Destra the Extinction . I am an existence called Deity(Kami to) in the Demon Gods Cult .

And he turned a cold glance to us .

Now then will you die?
