Chapter 46 – This Time Results


Now─what will happen?


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have obtained the Trump Card skill.’


Congratulations !!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Defeat the dungeon boss whose level is 100 or more higher than yours.”


Reward: Skill Trump Card


────────────────────


Skill──────────────────


Trump Card 1


Select one of your acquired skills as a Trump Card and increase its effect by (S.Lv x 25)%.


Once a Trump Card is set, it cannot be changed for 24 hours.


────────────────────


“Woah, that’s nice!”


If I set it to Fire Magic 5, it would always increase its power by 25%.


Maybe the idea is to put it on Ancient Chant or Fast Chant.


Or maybe put it on Gain SP Up?


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have obtained the skill of Retrograde Intimidation.’


Congratulations !!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Defeat a dungeon boss whose level is 400 or more higher than you.”


Reward: Skill Retrograde Intimidation


────────────────────


Skill──────────────────


Retrograde Intimidation


You can use Intimidate on an opponent whose level is higher than yours, reversing the positive/negative level difference. The effect of the Intimidation depends on the S.Lv of the Intimidation.


It cannot be used if the Intimidation skill has not been acquired.


It also disables any skill that has a negative effect on low-level opponents, such as Intimidation. (Same effect as the Disable Intimidation skill).


────────────────────


“This is… how does it work?”


It’s kind of complicated.


First of all, I don’t have Intimidation.


The Intimidation skill would presumably have disadvantages for someone with a lower Intimidation level than me.


It seems to be a skill with a complicated set of conditions that allows you to use this Intimidation on someone “higher” than me.


Intuitively, this could be interpreted as “This guy is supposed to be… level 1, but what is this power…?” The current situation is that all the other guys except me are basically under pressure from the higher ranks.


At present, I can say that all the others are basically at a higher level than me.


Except for the newly started level 1 explorers and the people who have only acquired the status and have not done any exploration.


If only I could get Intimidation, it would be a useful skill.


I don’t know the effect of Intimidation because I don’t have the essential Intimidation.


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have obtained the Philosopher’s Stone Fragment.’


Congratulations! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Defeat a dungeon boss whose level is 1,000 or more higher than you.”


Reward: Philosopher’s Stone Fragment


────────────────────


Item──────────────────


Philosopher’s Stone Fragment


Removes one disadvantage of an acquired skill.


────────────────────


“Eh, is this for real?”


It looks like a consumable, but it is still more than enough.


The disadvantage of the skill I want to delete is, of course――


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have obtained the Pseudo-Invincibility Barrier skill.’


“Oops.”


Without pausing for a moment, the Voice of Heaven continued.


Congratulations !!!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Defeat a dungeon boss whose level is 2000 or more higher than you.”


Reward: Pseudo-Invincibility Barrier skill.


────────────────────


Skill──────────────────


Pseudo-Invincibility Barrier 1


A pseudo-reproduction of the Invincibility Barrier said to be available only to ** in the other world. During the effect, the target of the skill cannot interfere with anything outside of the barrier.


────────────────────


“Suddenly, a blank letter appeared.”


What the hell is this blank letter? I’m not going to pretend that this is unreasonable.


From the effect, it could be “Demon King,” “Demon God,” or “Evil God.”


There are also candidates like “Hero” and “Goddess,” but the fact that it is invincible makes it look evil, doesn’t it?


I guess there are things like that.


I don’t know if they exist in this world.


The important thing is that the skill is powerful, but it is difficult to use.


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have obtained the skill Summon Secret Monster.’


Congratulations !!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Solo Defeat the Secret Dungeon Boss.”


Reward: Summon Secret Monster Skill


────────────────────


Skill──────────────────


Summon Secret Monster 1


Summons defeated secret monsters. The level of the summoned monster depends on the level of the summoner, the level of the monster at the time of the defeat, and the level of the other monsters that can be summoned, whichever is the highest.


It is possible to summon S.Lv monsters at the same time. However, you cannot summon multiple monsters of the same type at the same time.


The summoning process always uses MP; the amount of MP used depends on the level and rarity of the monster.


The current summonable secret monsters are


Golden Treasure Hobbit Lv2941 B Rank


Hobbit Sumo Wrestler Lv2941 A Rank


────────────────────


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have obtained the skill Summon Heroic Spirits.’


Congratulations !!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Solo, defeat a dungeon boss whose level is 100 or more higher than you.”


Reward: Summon Heroic Spirits Skill


────────────────────


Skill──────────────────


Summon Heroic Spirits 1


Summons a dead person related to you from the underworld and commands them. The conditions for the summoned Heroic Spirits are that they have strong, unresolved feelings for this world and that they have a certain level of power. The level of the heroic spirit to be summoned is the level of the dead person at the time of death.


It is possible to summon S.Lv Heroic Spirits at the same time.


The amount of MP consumed depends on the level and rarity of the spirit.


Currently summonable spirits


The Spirit of Junko Tozaki, who burns herself in the flames of hell, Lv. 2941, C Rank.


────────────────────


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have obtained the skill Summon Phantom Beasts.’


Congratulations !!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Solo defeat a dungeon boss whose level is 400 or more higher than you.”


Reward: Skill Summon Phantom Beasts


────────────────────


Skill──────────────────


Summon Phantom Beasts


Summon a phantom beast from the other world. The type of summoned beast is determined by the soul of the summoner. Summoned phantom beasts cannot be changed. Summoned phantom beasts can be sent back and summoned again at will. MP is consumed when summoned, but no MP is consumed afterward.


────────────────────


“Does this mean three summoning skills… for solo relief?”


There are a lot of things to pick from, but let’s look at them in order.


The Summon Secret Monster feature allows me to summon the Golden Treasure Hobbit and the Hobbit Sumo Wrestler that I have defeated so far.


And it looks like the level at the time of summoning will be 2941 for the Hobbit Sumo Wrestler in its current state.


I’m glad they didn’t set it to the level of the summoner.


As for Summon Heroic Spirits… I don’t know what to say about that.


Even if I summon that farmed level-up ruthless woman, it will only make me feel worse.


Or maybe I’ll just enjoy watching her burn in hellfire?


No, I don’t have that bad of a taste.


I think the fact that that woman is treated as a heroic spirit is a questionable judgment, but I guess it’s mechanically determined by “remorse” and “strength.”


“As for the Phantom Beast… I’m looking forward to seeing what will come of it.”


The only thing I’m worried about is if they get in the way of Escape in battle, but… if it’s a phantom beast, it must have a certain amount of intelligence.


In the worst-case scenario, I could take advantage of the fact that I can “freely repatriate” it and return it if it looks unpleasant.


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have obtained the Demonization skill.’


Congratulations !!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Solo defeat of a dungeon boss whose level is 1,000 or more higher than you.”


Reward: Skill Demonization


────────────────────


Skill──────────────────


Demonization 1


For (S.Lv x 15) seconds, maximum HP is halved, but other ability stats are tripled.


────────────────────


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have acquired the skill Demon God Incarnation.’


Congratulations !!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Solo defeat of a dungeon boss whose level is more than 2000 higher than you.”


Reward: Demon God Incarnation Skill


────────────────────


Skill──────────────────


Demon God Incarnation 1


For (S.Lv x 12) seconds, maximum HP is reduced to 20%, but other ability stats are increased by ten times.


────────────────────


“Another tricky skill to handle…”


It’s risky, but the effect is exceptional.


The synergy with other skills is also huge.


Demon God Incarnation is a huge step up in ability value.


Depending on the situation, it is better to use the low-risk Demonization and the high-risk Demon God Incarnation.


…It’s not in the description, but I don’t think it’s possible to stack both skills, right?


Have the “dungeon boss is level 00 higher than you” conditions finally run out?


‘You have conquered the Hikarigaoka Park Dungeon!’


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. You have obtained the Book of Secrets, Scroll of Rupture.’


Congratulations !!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Conquer a dungeon of rank B or higher at level 15 or lower” (excluding dungeons that have already been conquered for the second time or later).


Reward: Book of Secrets, Scroll of Rupture


────────────────────


Item ──────────────────


Book of Secrets, Scroll of Rupture


Gain 40,000 SP when used.


────────────────────


“Wow, nice.”


The last time I saw this item, I got it for “Level 25, First Time” with similar conditions.


It’s a nice miscalculation that there was a second and subsequent setting.


However, it seems that there is no setting for the second and subsequent times for level 25.


However, compared to the SP I got a while ago, 40,000 seems a bit low.


I wonder if it would be better to give it to someone else or sell it instead of using it myself.


Serika, who has taken care of me a lot, might be happy if I gave it to her.


‘Confirmation of the fulfillment of the special condition. The level sealing bracelet has been reset.’


Congratulations !!! ────────────


Special Condition Achieved: “Conquer a dungeon of rank B or higher at level 5 or lower” (excluding dungeons that have already been conquered for the second time or later)


Reward: Reset the Level Sealing Bracelet


────────────────────


Item──────────────────


Level Sealing Bracelet


Experience gain is reduced to 0 while worn. Whenever experience is deactivated, a small crack appears, and when the total amount of experience deactivated exceeds 1,000,000, the bracelet may break randomly every time experience is gained.


Disabled experience value] 117,640 -> 0


────────────────────


“Oh!”


I really appreciate this.


In the future, there will be situations where I can’t use Escape like this.


The special condition is “after the second time,” which means that if I need to reset the bracelet, I can only clear a B-rank dungeon.


However, it says, “except for dungeons that you have already cleared,” so apparently, it is not possible at Tengumine Shrine or Hikarigaoka Park.


Well, there are over 30,000 dungeons in Japan.


Most of them are C-rank, but there must be about 30% B-rank dungeons as well. There is no shortage of dungeons to dive into.


However, it must be a hassle, so I should save the Level Sealing Bracelet for a special occasion like in the past.


This time, the dungeon in Hikarigaoka Park was supposed to be temporarily equivalent to an S-rank dungeon in Flood, but it seems that the condition of “dungeon above S-rank (A-rank) at level 00 or below” could not be met.


Does this mean that rank advancement in Flood is an exception?


Let’s just think of it as a fun thing to do when you go through an A- or S-rank dungeon.


“…Is this the end?”


I thought so, but the Voice of Heaven continues.
