The Rays safely descended the stairs to the third basement level, but as soon as they stepped into the third basement level, they were almost reflective of each other.

"What!"

 At the same time, Arra, next to Ray, wields her sword and plays something flying.

"Oh, I see. I see,"

 muttered Ray, turning his eyes to an object entangled in a death-size pattern.
 There was a white thread.The white thread extends toward the ceiling of the dungeon.and at the end of his gaze there was a spider about two meters in length, staring at them with more than twenty eyes that made them emotionally insensible.

"Is the trap at the top of the stairs also his work?"

 The one staring at Arla and her back Elena, Custe, and Ver is about a size larger than the human, and the arms and legs extending from there are covered with green scales.and Lizardman, a reptile-faced subhuman with a thick long tail.
 Each of them holds prey such as bows, swords, and spears and looks at the arras with hostile eyes.

"Ray, you must do something about the spider.I wish you would put them away as soon as possible and help me."

 Shaking down his connecting sword, he whipped it into the shape of a whip and struck it against the lizardmen, and cried Elena sharply.
 The blade of the sword stretches out, and the leading few are wounded not too small on the connected sword that attacks it like a whip, causing confusion among the lizard men.As if taking advantage of it, Arla with a long sword thrusts in, and Custe, who went to the front guard without Ray, also thrusts in with a magical spear.and it was Ver, and Elena, with her bow in hand, who supported them.The moment an individual armed with a bow tries to shoot an arrow, the connected sword attacks the lizard with a snake-like quick movement that moves through the air.
 Watching this situation sideways, Ray pulls a death-size thread entwined to drag down a spider stuck to the ceiling, but he desperately resists it by sticking his nails to the ceiling, wondering if he knows what will happen if it is dropped down.

"Oh, what a waste of time.Set!"
"Grunt!"

 She kicked the earth with her wings flapping as if she had been waiting.Using the same force, he runs up as if he were running on a wall and wields his eagle nails at the sight of a spider.

"Kikikikikikikikikikikikikikikiki"

 The spider kicks the ceiling and avoids Seto's blow, making a metallic sound.But...

"I thought you'd come!"

 Avoiding Seto's attack means he has to move from being stuck to the ceiling.In other words, it was necessary to move the toenails that had been stuck against the ceiling, and it was impossible to resist the entangled death size of the thread.

"Screech!"

 In the case of a spider, there is no such thing as a cry, but perhaps it is because it screams and threatens a monster.
 It must have caused some damage by being dropped to the ground.Ray tries to cut a slow spider with a death-size sword, but at that moment the spider opens its mouth and spits out some liquid.

"Phew!"

 Since it is a liquid spouted by a spider, it almost intuitively kicks the ground and distances itself from the spider.It was obvious that the answer was to melt the surrounding area with smoke from the liquid that had fallen to the ground.The giant spider noticed Seto trying to attack him from above because of his compound eyes.

"Get rid of it!"
"Grunt!"

 After hearing Ray's cry, he kicks the wall next to him with the lion's hind legs, killing the falling speed and changing direction in the air.At almost the same time, countless threads were shot up from the belly of the giant spider, but the threads were stuck to the ceiling without catching Seto.If it had continued to attack from above, it would certainly have been entangled in the air.

"Both poison and thread are troublesome long-range attacks for me and Sett....it can't be helped, let's give up the magical stones and materials."

 Ray mutters and concentrates his magical powers, and Seto, who understands what Ray is trying to do, makes an attack on the spider whenever he has a chance to keep the giant spider's attention away.

"Fire, burn the enemy according to my will."He chants spells with magical words, distorts the world's principles and creates a fireball about 50 cm in diameter at the tip of a death-size handle.

"Fireball!"

 and a fireball with a handle thrown over it.When he noticed the heat of the giant spider approaching him, he could not avoid it, but he had to silently accept the body fluid boiling down.
 As soon as Ray finds out that the ball has hit him, he turns to Lizardman.
 Lizard man.The Monster Rank is about the same as the previous Oak that you beat with D, but what's distinctly different is that you're more intelligent than Oak.Unlike Oak, who merely obeyed orders from above him, each Lizardman determines and executes what is the best action at the time.Originally it may be considered a higher rank because of its intelligence, but it is considered the same rank as an oak, which has a higher breeding capacity but a lower individual capacity than a lizard man, because the breeding capacity itself is not so high.The proof of subjugation is at the tip of the tail, and five silver coins can be purchased at the guild.
 The Lizardman, of course, did not seem so easy when it came to fighting against the Custes, Ver, and Arras under Elena's command.

(In this case, should we praise the lizard men?the same number of goblins who fought on the previous floor were easily kicked off.)

 Thinking this way, Lizardman's avant-garde is in a mixed battle with Elena, but he notices that the avant-garde is a soldier.

"I will magically attack the rear guard, Mr. Elena.Be careful not to get involved!"
"Magic? Okay.Everyone heard it. Be careful not to get caught up in Ray's magic!"

 Listening to Elena's voice, he concentrated his mind and put his magical powers into words.

"Fire, be an arrow that burns everything and falls like rain."

 At the same time as the spell is chanted, an arrow with a flame of about arm length is formed around Ray.The number is about 50.

"The falling fire-arrow!"

 and as soon as the magic begins, about fifty fire arrows are shot in a heap, literally descending behind the lizardmen.
 A myriad of fire arrows suddenly appeared, and some of the rearguard lizardmen immediately chose to avoid or shield them, but one of them chose to avoid, two of them, and more than 10 of them would not be able to avoid them all, and the moment they couldn't avoid them, the fire arrows pierced them.and in an instant, a blaze of flames spread all over his body, lighting up his surroundings, even brighter than the dimly shining dungeon walls.The lizardman, who raised his shield immediately instead of avoiding it, was even more miserable.If Ray's shot was an ordinary arrow, that action would have been correct.But this time it was not an ordinary arrow, but an arrow formed by fire.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 With his shield in front of him, Lizzardman sees the arrow of fire pierce the shield, and at the same time the flame spreads from the piercing part.The flame spread not only to the shield but also to the arm which was equipped with it, and burned up the shield arm by arm.and it did not take long for Lizzardman, who had lost his arm, to avoid the following fire arrows, and for one or two fire arrows to stick into his body and the whole body to be enveloped in flames, as he had chosen to avoid. 
 One blow. When the lizardmen see their rear guard half-destroyed by a single attack magic, they become half-depressed.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 The lizard man, whose body is about one size larger than the others, screams loudly and exclaims.Some people would have come back to their senses with that voice.... yes, if nothing happens.

"The enemy is confused! We'll cut it down before we get it back together!"

 That's right. Elena, also known as the Princess Shogun, could not have missed the fatal opportunity of the enemy's confusion.
 The rear guard is half destroyed by Ray's magic, and at the same time, the lizardmen, who had already cut less than ten of them in previous battles with the Elenas, no longer have the power to accept the attack, one by one.
 And within minutes of Ray's magic being released, the only surviving lizard was one of the leaders who had just made a loud noise.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 The lizard looked right to lead other lizard men.It's more than one size larger than the rest of the lizard man, 2m tall, and it's covered with leather armour, which seems to have been made of some kind of monster skin.In his right hand was a huge Great Sword well over 1.5 meters, and the other hand was the only one among the lizardmen to have a metal shield.
 and the Lizardman manipulates the Great Sword lightly with one hand, and turns the end of it towards Elena.

"...all right, if you want a one-on-one fight.And if you want me from the other person, I'll accept it."Elena, holding a connecting sword in her hand, took a step forward.

"Dear Elena! You can't fight monsters one-on-one! If you insist on doing it, I'll do it for you!"

 Custe tries to go before Elena with a magic spear in his hand, but it is Elena, the man himself who is challenged to fight.

"Custe, apparently he is the leader of those lizardmen, and he is not an ordinary lizardman in his stature.Ray, do you understand?"

 The question was suddenly asked, but Ray answers without any difficulty.

"Probably, I think it's the Lizardman General, which is the top species of Lizardman.If so, the monster rank is C."
"Well, indeed.It's different from the other lizard men in terms of dignity."
"It is all the more dangerous, then, Mr. Elena.Leave it to me."

 Suddenly Elena turned a sharp glance at Custe, who had been talking to her.

"Dear me, Custe, he is a proud warrior, even though he is a monster.Then I can't guarantee that I won't suffer the one-on-one battle for which I'm proud."
"Dear Elena!"
"... Custe, I told you it was repetitive.Do you want me to say the same thing three times?"
"Gut, ... all right,"

 Custe, caught in Elena's gaze, withdrew from the scene with a reluctant spear.

"I wish you all the luck of war, Elena,"

 The next person to speak was Arra.But unlike Custe, he believed that Elena would win a one-on-one battle.

"Well, I was also called the Hime Shogun.It won't be so easy."
"I have to put an end to it, for my part,"
"Oh, then Ver. Do you want to stop?"
"That's all right if you stop and stop, but my queen isn't the kind of person to stop.Then all I can do is watch."

 Elena smiles bitterly at Ver's words.

"I've told you so many times, but don't call her the Queen.Mumble such a thing in a strange way, as it is only a well-known face.You'll be charged with disrespect."
"Yes, yes, I know,"

 Ver, who sent Elena off lightly, and Ray was the last to speak to Elena.

"I will confirm with my own eyes the strength of being called Hime Shogun."
"Well, yes.You're watching, as strong as I am.We can't fight like that."

 Elena smiled as she told her, not as an elegant Duchess, but as a fierce smile which was worthy of being called a princess general by the neighboring countries.

"Glu".Seeing the smile, Seto sings in his throat and sees Elena off.
 With four eyes behind her, Elena faces Lizard General.
 and, for a few seconds, he began to move out of either way.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 They both kick the ground at the same time and quickly shorten the interval.and Elena, who had a longer arm than the Great Sword, a connecting sword.
 When he wields the connected sword wide, the blade becomes like a whip, drawing an irregular trajectory, and the tip of the sword cuts Lizardman General's head.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 but Lizardman General immediately held up the Great Sword like a shield to prevent the blow.However

"I think that's it!"

 It was a connecting sword bounced back by the Great Sword, but when Elena quickly returned his wrist, the tip of the sword turned and attacked his face again.
 The irregular blow might have been unexpected, but his left shoulder was cut roughly, and blood spouted.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 But as if this had nothing to do with it, Lizardman General threw a metal shield at Elena, without scaring his wounded arm, and at the same time narrowed his distance from the interval of the connecting swords to the interval of his Great Sword.
 If Elena's weapon had been just a whip, Lizardman General would have had the advantage at this point.but the weapons that Elena possesses are only connected swords, capable of both the whip and the sword.That's why.
 Shhhhhatch!
 The Great Sword, which is shaken down to the full force, is received by a connecting sword returned to the longsword state.

"Sha!"

 Lizardman General was surprised that the duel's weapon had changed, but the opportunity was fatal to Elena, who was also a top swordsman.

"Huh!"

 Holding the connected sword diagonally against the Great Sword, he slips through the blade and takes a blow from the opponent... ...puts the blade to his torso as if passing by the side of the Lizardman General, who has a gap...cuts it!

"What!"

 and Lizardman General ended his life with his torso divided into two parts, without knowing what had happened.
