"All right, I'm done releasing it."

 It was about an hour before Ver declared so,
 The lookout had already changed from Ray to Arra, and from Arra to Custe, when Elena was about to take over, Ver's voice echoed around her.

"Well done, Ver, it must have taken some time to get rid of the trap, and rest a little.for if we go on and meet the enemy, we may be in trouble."
"As expected, we are the Queen.It's easy to control people's minds.

 He must have been concentrating on lifting the trap.He muttered as if he were tired and leaned against the dimly shining wall of the dungeon.
 With a wry smile at Ver's appearance, Elena took over with Custe and began to look out for others.

"Well done,"
"Oh, well, my profession is a full-time job, but since I've been in this dungeon, I've had a lot of opportunities to do that ... or, I mean, I feel like there's too much."

 Ver, with a wry smile, took a water bottle from his waist pouch and recommended it to Custe.

"I'm sorry,"

 Custe also carried the water bottle to his mouth with a wry smile.

"Totally, the two men are sloppy,"
"...you're just not wasting your energy because of the magic items."

 Ver turns his eyes to Arra's teasing tone, a kind of revenge he always makes fun of.
 Watching them communicate, Ray lay on the floor, leaned on Seto, who was watching the scene, and patted him on the back.





"Well, let us resume our search now,"

 It was about half an hour after Ver took a break that Elena declared.
 Everyone nods to the lines and stands up and holds up their weapons.

"I'll put you a little more strain, Ver,"
"Yes, yes, leave it to me.I'll do my best for the rest of the story."
"I'll leave it to you. There's no change in the line.Here we go."

 The avant-garde is Ver and Custe.The middle guard goes down the passageway with Ray, Elena and the rear guard in a line of Arra and Seto.

"Come to think of it, Ver. What was the trap that you eventually lifted?"

 Going down the aisle, Arra asks Ver.
 Ver replied lightly, with a keen glance around him to see if there were any traps.

"Do you want to hear it? Well, if you want to go that far, can I tell you?"
"...what a waste of it?"Was it such a great trap?"
"It's not that great, it's that kind of thing.To put it simply, it was a trap in which the ceiling collapsed as soon as I stepped in."
"Wait, what's that?There's no way we can avoid it."As she walked down the aisle dumbfounded, Custe interrupted her.

"I mean, wouldn't the floor of the fifth basement collapse if the ceiling collapsed.
"Well, I don't know.I don't know until then, but it's a dungeon with woods and rivers running inside, and I wouldn't be surprised if they told me that it wouldn't affect the upper floors at all if the ceiling collapsed."
"... certainly,"

 Custe reminds me of all the irrational situations I've experienced so far, and I'm convinced.
 It's been half an hour since we started talking down the aisle.Strangely enough, he continues, wondering that no traps had been found that had been set to make him sick.

"I suppose this is... what Ver said earlier is correct."

 Even though there is no trap, it is not known when the monster will attack, so Elena mutters with a connected sword in her hand.

"Are you saying that the trap was a trial?"

 Ray also responds to Elena, making her death-size ready.

"Yeah. Considering how many traps there have been since we entered this hierarchy, it must have been like the final exam."
"... Mr. Elena, may be right."

 Ver, listening to the conversation between Elena and Ray, muttered that he had discovered something before his eyes.
 It was right in front of Ver's eyes.It was a huge door about five meters high.It was also a double-hinged door with a giant club-wielding figure carved on it.

"I've only had a bad feeling since I saw the door."

 Rey walks forward with a wry smile at Ver in a bored tone.

"I understand what you mean, but if you have the option of opening that door and not entering the room, you'll have to go back to the crossroads."
"Well, and I'm sure there will be a door just like here at the end of the other two roads. ... I can't help it, will you?"

 I patted both cheeks with a bang, and immediately went to the door to examine it, but within a few minutes I shrugged my shoulders and declared.

"There are no traps. I guess that was the last trap."
"All right, then I'll go in at once.You don't know what's in store for you, so don't let your guard down."

 Everyone nods to Elena's words and opens the door with the giant engraved on it, perhaps because Ver is responsible as a thief.
 Then, inside...

"Goblin?"

 muttered Ray without thinking.
 Yes. It's safe to say that the room with the door open is vast.When Ray looked round, it looked like a room in a square shape about 500 meters square.
 and in the vast room was a green skin that was only about the height of Ray's waist, and an ugly look on his short horns.
 In general, he could only judge it as a goblin, but for some reason Ray felt uncomfortable in determining its existence as a goblin.

(Is it possible that Goblin was at the end of the door, so majesticly depicted as a giant, though, given the wickedness of this dungeon, he would not have prepared such an easy enemy...)While Ray is thinking inside, the goblin in the room finds them and runs up to them with a club.
 He must have been dumbfounded when he saw the situation.Custe and Veru's two avant-gardes take a step forward.

"Sir Elena, we are quite good enough for the goblins,"
"...something strange about me... well, with Custe, I'm sure I'd be as good as a goblin."

 Feeling the same discomfort as Ray, Ver pulls the bow to help Custe step forward.

(The contents of the giant's door are Goblin... Wait. Goblin? I'm sure it's in the Magic Dictionary... Splitting!)

 Ray immediately screams after reaching the answer like an associative game.

"The enemy is not a goblin, but a sprigan!"

 The first person to respond to the voice was Elena, who was next to Ray.He stepped forward holding a junctured sword.
 At the same time, without knowing the reason, the mere mention of Elena's advance to the front was sufficient, followed by Arra.
 and when the Elena and her party had all come in, the huge door was automatically closed as if someone had confirmed it, but the Elena and her party, seeing the existence of a sprigan, did not notice it at all.

"Custe, step back!"

 Elena screamed sharply at Custe, who was holding her spear against him, but it was only a few seconds late advice.
 The goblin, which should have been only about Ray's waist, suddenly spread a green wall in front of Custe, who was about to thrust out his spear.
 No, that's not a wall.He is a huge figure who is about to reach six meters in height.
 A spriggan, which usually lives the size of a goblin, reveals its true character as a giant when it comes to battle.It is a monster with two figures: a giant and an ugly dwarf.He is an extremely violent monster of low intelligence and preference for human flesh, though he is a member of the Giants.Its monster rank is B. It is the same level of monster as the Oak King that Ray overthrew in the Oak Village.
 It is similar to the AUGER where Ray and Sett fought on the fourth basement floor in terms of human flesh and violence, but unlike AUGER, it is hard to deal with in terms of cunning.It would have been a relief to the Elenas that they could not manipulate magic like the higher giants.

"Oh my gosh!"

 Because the spriggan itself had grown in size, its clubs had also grown in size.Unlike the wood that an auger had directly pulled out, the tip of the auger is made to be large and heavy, and it is designed to cause strong damage to the opponent when struck.The club was thrown down at Custe...
 Scratch!
 A blade of a connecting sword wielded by an Elena extends like a whip, and thrusts the tip of the sword into the tip of a club just before being shaken down to forcefully shift the track.

"Phew!"

 Custe also instantly returns to his senses and leaps back, while Ver shoots an arrow at the spriggan to support Custe.But...

"You're lying!? What kind of skin do you have that you can't get an arrow through?"

 The five arrows, which, for their large size, were shot at the body of the spriggan, and all fell to the floor without a scratch on the skin.

"If you're aiming, aim at your face, not your torso! If you're looking at your face, hit your eyes and mouth, and you'll be damaged!"

 With his death-size position in place, Ray screams as he runs past Ver, naturally following Seto."Oh my gosh!"

 Contrary to Custe, who leaped backward, Ray and Seto thrust into themselves.Then the spriggan, who noticed Arra pushing in from a position a little further away from her, roared impatiently and shook her club wide.

"Ara, I will attract his attention, and you must aim at the tendon of his foot! Your strength and power aces should damage the spriggan!"
"All right!"

 Ray screams at Arla and wields a big death-size shot at the spriggan.

"Hit!"

 The flying attack with the words leaves a big scratch on the chest of the spriggan, which was about to swing down the club.
 But...

"Oh, shallow!"

 Unlike the arrow Ver fired, the flying sword fired from the death size certainly damages the spriggan.It was a great wound in line with the slashing.However, although the scope of the wound was wide, it was a blow that had not reached even the bone by cutting the skin and some flesh.
 Sprigan, too, did not care about the extent of his wound... but still shook down the huge club he had thrown at Ray, who had caused him a wound.

"Roll-roll-roll-roll!"

 Seto puts the king's pressure on such sprigans.Lei averted a slow blow by jumping sideways, jumped up the club's arm, and swung his death-size toward the spriggan's neck.But...

"Oh my gosh!"

 Instinctively aware of how powerful Ray's death-size blow would be, Sprigan immediately covered his neck with his left arm, which was the other hand without a club, and shouted anguish when his left wrist was cut off.

`Why, if you were an auger, you would have been killed with this blow!'

 The image of an auger fighting on the 4th basement floor is immediately remembered in his mind, and he kicks the sprigan in the shoulder and leaves the area.
 The sprigan, who lost his point from his wrist and tried to chase Ray with his bleeding left arm, quickly reached out to him by a connecting sword operated by Elena.It draws a complicated trajectory like a snake dancing in the air, and the point of the sword sticks into the chest of a sprigan that Ver's arrow did not pass through.
 In that moment, when the unexpected blow stopped her movement, Elena's voice echoed around her.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 Following his voice, Arra, who had moved to the foot of the sprigan, lifted up the power axe she had in her hand... and swung it down to the left foot of the sprigan!
 Arra's own strength, and Power Ax, which is also a magic.The blow that produced the two effects was certainly thrown down to the sprigan's left foot -- or, to be exact, his ankle -- and he succeeded in cutting it halfway.

"Ahhhhhhuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

 A sprigan shrieked and couldn't even stand with his tendon cut.

"All right! Now, convolution!"

 Following Elena's orders, they all attack the spriggan at once.
 Ray's death-size, Elena's connecting sword, Arla's Power Axe's, and Custe's water magic spear cause damage to Sprigan's sturdy body, and Ver's arrows are shot at Sprigan's head.

"Roll-roll-roll-roll!"

 and with a striking blow from above Seth, Sprigan's life was killed and his great body sank to the ground.
