164. Peach




 I noticed it (,) as soon as I entered the dungeon in the transfer room.
 It's different from other dungeons, but it's very similar to a certain dungeon.

 There are no adventurers, and the entire dungeon is made to look like an arena.
 It's built similarly to that Sulphur dungeon.

'You mean solo compulsory: ...... Well, if it wasn't, wouldn't they call it a strongman killer?'

 I waited there for a moment.
 A vast space that was almost unobstructed and could be seen at a glance.
 If it's the same as Sulphur, the monsters will show up sooner or later.

 Thinking so, I loaded the gun and waited, making sure that I could use my window cutter (elementary magic) to use my magic.
 Soon, the monster will appear.

 Two slimes appeared on the other side of the arena.
 Their size is about the size of a balance ball and their colors are gold and silver, respectively.

 

 I nodded my head at the thought of myself, but once again, it was still flirting.
 Their bodies are rubbing together and they're flirting so vigorously that it's almost as if I could see their hearts flying here and there.

 I guess it's the same kind of thing as father and son slime or something like that, lover or couple slime.

 First of all, I did a small hand check, firing a series of regular bullets at the same time with two guns.
 An ordinary lead ball split the air and hit the two slimes, but it hardly seemed to have any effect.

 Not only that, the bullets hit (、、、、、) slightly differently.
 The golden slime was hit, but it almost didn't seem to work, and the silver slime wasn't hit in the first place.
 It felt like there was some kind of thin membrane on the outside of its body that hit it and played off of it.

 The slime noticed us, it stopped flirting and came towards us--.

'Whoa!'

 I yelled out and quickly crossed my arms to guard them.
 The distance of nearly twenty meters was closed down in an instant, and the golden slime hit me, transforming parts of my body like a slime.
 The heavy blow went through the guard and through the core of his body.
 I couldn't help but blow backwards and somehow regain my stance and land on my feet.

''d*mn!''

 My hands are numb, trembling and unable to move properly.
 The gold slime is getting even more fleshy!

 I avoid it on the spur of the moment.
 As the ground is gouged out and stone crumbs fly off, he somehow manages to fire a recovery round at himself with his trembling hands.
 The damage disappears in an instant. Almost at the same time as you're fully recovered, you turn to counterattack.
 He lands, stepping in gingerly and getting fleshed out.
 He slams a full force punch into the slime's body.

 It's responsive, and the gold slime is blown away.
 It blew up, bouncing about twenty meters, and then went back to the silver slime.
 With a bouncing rubber ball sound effect, the gold slime landed normally. It seems to do very little damage. ...... Seriously?

 As I rolled my tongue, this time the silver slime flew at me.
 It flew at almost the same speed as the gold slime and attacked me by transforming its body in the same way.

 I met it head on.
 Stepping gingerly into the ground, I dropped my hips and punched to intercept it.
 It struck with a silver slime attack.

 Purrrrrrrrr!

 The entire dungeon shuddered with the sound of an explosion and a shock wave that made the entire dungeon tremble.

 The Silver Slime was unharmed, and I couldn't help but take two or three steps back.

 We struck each other and I took more damage than I did with the gold slime.
 Not only that, I know this damage.

'Magic damage?'

 It's the same damage I once did when I realized how fragile I was when my spirit was still F. And it's not the same as gold slime.

 Goldslime's attack was physical damage, and Silver Slime's attack was magical damage.

 I see, I was strangely convinced.
 And then - I dared to take the attack of the gold slime that swooped in again.
 My numb arm, I had prepared it, so I quickly recovered with a recovery bullet.

 The power of the gold slime is almost as good as mine.

 This was what Emily was talking about.
 Strong killers, the strength of the monsters fluctuates with the strength of the adventurers.
 Goldslime's power, and the speed with which he's fleshed out twice as fast as I am, is about the same as mine.

 It's tricky, tricky - but.

 I grab the gold slime as it continues to get closer and closer and throw it away.
 I throw it to the other side and fire a series of tracking rounds.
 These tracked bullets draw a time-lagged homing trajectory and aim at the gold slime. I'm buying time.

 I turned towards the silver slime so as not to waste that little time.
 I held the gun to one side and fired continuously.
 The lightning bullets packed into the reinforced ammunition mashed up - infinite lightning bullets were fired at the silver slime in rapid succession.

 Lightning struck the Silver Slime one after another, burning the slime's body with a dull glow of color.
 The slime struggles in pain - as I guessed.

 The gold slime is almost as good as my physical abilities, then the silver slime that deals magical damage is almost as good as my magical abilities, I guess.
 And I'm still low on spirit.

 I shot the infinite lightning bullets of the massacre into the spirit (magic defense power), which is the only hole in my mind at the moment.

 The silver slime struggled painfully and eventually turned black and burned out.
 Okay, the rest--.

 The moment I was about to turn around, the gun disappeared from my hand.

"N--

 Without any time to be surprised, the gold slime was even more fleshed out.
 It would come at me with SS-equivalent strength and speed in close combat.
 I desperately guard and try to avoid it and get past it.

 The gun's disappearance has caused some damage to my mental health, the key to long range attacks, the gun that can also heal and assist, has disappeared, which means that my battle power has been reduced by half.

 With no time to rebuild that unrest, the slime attack hit me cleanly on the side and I was blown right to the side.
 It's been a long time since I've done any serious damage, not since I fought the Dungeon Master.

 I stood up with my hands on my knees, the blow now coming to my chin.
 The relentless SS equivalent of a blow was so heavy.

 The gold slime attacked further.
 Its ferocity has increased mindlessly - no, it has definitely increased.
 Immediately after the silver slime disappeared, the intensity of the attack has gone up a notch. The power and speed are the same, but the increased fierceness has made the attacks terrifying.

 I shrugged it off, dodging and receiving it and shrugging it off.
 Because they're equal, it's hard to rebuild once they're pushed into an inferior position. I was made good by the rush of gold slime.

 If I don't do this, I'll be left with nothing.
 I'm completely devoted to defending myself against the enemy, but I've made up my mind.
 I gave up on trying to regain control and not try to rebuild.

 Instead, I took aim. I sharpened my awareness and took a chance and aimed.
 My arm was numb and wouldn't listen, the damage was building up in my core.

'Gafu.'

 The taste of iron spreads in my mouth as I forcefully drink down something (...) that is building up.

 Still aiming at it, I sharpen my awareness.

''--Haah!''

 A big piece of gold slime, this is a tome! And then a blow came flying in.
 A counter to match it, an all-out cross counter.

 The fist pierced the gold slime - no, it penetrated.
 The skewered gold slime cramped up and eventually popped! And then it was gone.

 A large peach and a gun that had disappeared and disappeared showed up on the ground after it disappeared.

''--Gafu!''

 This time, I shook my head quickly as I spat out the fresh blood I had spat out, and I was beside myself so I wouldn't get on my peaches.

     ☆

 Inside the mansion, Aulum's room.
 Awrum is dressed in his pajamas with his body upright on the bed.
 She looks a bit pale and a bit pale with her jacket over her shoulders, giving her the appearance of an invalid.

 Emily handed her a peach.
 A peach cut in half, heaped with syrup.

'What's this?'
It's a peach, and when I have a cold, I eat it and feel better in no time.
You mean Potions ......?
That's not true!

 Emily says, smiling. Aulum nods his head, but still takes it, stabbing the peach with his fork and bringing it to his mouth.
 Immediately after, her eyes sparkle.
 Her eyes widen and she stumbles back, her eyes sparkling.

''Oops!
That's a lot of hoarding.
Because it's so good, it's so, so, so good.
Okay.
These are the peaches that Yoda took from the ground.
Really?
Well.
...... Thank you for that, for me.
Don't worry about it. I just killed a monster.
'Thanks, Lyota. ......
What's going on?
If you catch a cold, they'll make you this again--

 Pish, I decapitated the awlum.

'No, not like that, fix it right.
Yes. Thank you, Lyota, Emily.

 Aulum, still in his sick form, chewed on a peach on the bed.
 It must have been the effect of the peaches made like a can of peaches, because Aulum was burning so clearly as she sipped them.
 I exchanged glances with Emily and secretly gave each other a thumbs up.
