Nifonium, seventh floor underground.

　A floor crawling with electricity-clad mammies.
　This is the level where flame bombs were a special effect, but now there are upper compatible attacks.

　A fusion of blue flame bullets, flameless bullets.

　A bullet that creates an ultra-hot flame that becomes invisible after it is launched.
　Shoot it out, induce the electric mummy, defeat it one after another in power-saving mode, and drop the spirit seed.

　Defeat it, drop it, and raise its spirit stake by 1.
　Defeat it, drop it, and raise its Spirit Steady 1.

　Repeat the process, and when you reach the point where you feel your stats are about to go up, check your ability on the Portable Now Board.

　The spirit that had been canned at S has gone up to SS.
　Same as before.

　When I got the mirror, my HP, strength and speed limits went from S to SS.
　When I got the Magatama, my strength, MP and intelligence went to SS.

　And the sword I got with the double acceleration.
　That unlocked my spirit first.

　Next was luck.

　Nifonium, 8th floor underground.

　I went downstairs in a floor crawling with three-headed dog zombies.

　I have to choose between the three options, so I'll just shoot the tracking rounds.

　At the same time, you close in on the dog-zombie and shoot the two heads that aren't the heads that the tracking rounds are aiming at, and then you shoot a growth round into one of them.

　The head is blown off, the dog zombie disappears, and a seed of luck drops.
　Take it and raise your luck by one.

　Then you shoot a tracking round at the next dog-zombie, flesh it out the same way, and blow off one of its two remaining heads.

　This time it didn't work, and the dog zombies were pinned down.

　Three choice necks, a trait that doesn't go down unless you hit the right one.
　The two choices are the two choices that peeked at the most dangerous neck with the tracking rounds, and I go around to guess the one-in-two chance.

　I kept guessing one in two.

　If it's a repetition, you don't have to do this. If I used it, the dog zombies would go down.
　Still, I would take them down in a straight line.

　I'm in a hurry to get to my target, but in this kind of situation, you have to keep your mind to the beginning.
　If you get distracted and push hard, a lot of things will get messy and you'll fail unintentionally.

　This world is like a game, and I made that mistake many times in my original game.

　It's times like these that you need to be careful and go back to the drawing board.

　I kept guessing straight-up two halves, and I thought "Okay" by experience.

　Using the portable now board, I checked the status.

　Luck, too, had gone from S to SS.

　This brings me up to 8 out of 9 to SS.
　Only one left, dexterity.

　Now it's time to go.
　I went down to the ninth basement floor.

　As the dungeon snow fell, I saw a huge monster.

　A dragon.
　It was a huge body with four legs, about the size of a two-story house.
　Its body was rotten in many places and it was emitting a miasma-like substance.

　There were many undead monsters in the ninth floor of the Nifonium dungeon.

　The monster was a dragon zombie.

　You can see at a glance that the monster is strong, but that's not all.

"3...... what do you mean by that?

　The number '3' appeared above Dragon Zombie's head.

'In the meantime, check ...... small hand!

　He readied his gun and fired a growth bullet that had completely grown to a mainstay.

　There's something - the bullet blows off a part of the dragon zombie's body, contrary to my expectations.
　I was wondering if there was anything in particular .......

　The number went from "3" to "2".

　I thought about it for a minute.
　I was upstairs getting my focus upstairs and I didn't lose it, so it hit me right away.

　The number is the number of possible attacks.
　The question is, what happens after the attack is over?

　Will I no longer be able to attack?
　Dragon zombies gone and wasted bones with no drops?
　I'm going to be sent out of the dungeon?

　I imagined all sorts of possibilities based on my experience and knowledge.

An attack that could see it in one hand and be ...... and able to respond to subsequent developments.

　My taut concentration gave me the answer.

　I pull out two pistols, loading the same bullets on both sides.
　Pulling the trigger, he launches a fusion bullet.

　Two blue flame bullets - right after I fired, the dragon zombie's number went from '2' to '0'.
　It was still the number of attacks.

　And even though I loaded the bullets afterwards, the bullets didn't come out when I pulled the trigger.

'Window cutter!'

　I also tried magic, it didn't activate.

　I tried swinging my fist, and it turned out to be a nebulous punch that didn't feel like an attack.

　The number is the number of times it can be attacked, and that seems to be the correct number.

　Flameless bullets to deal with that possibility, I hit the jackpot.

　I can't attack, but I can evade.
　While I evaded, I guided the dragon zombie into the flameless bullets, damaging it little by little and burning it to death.

　The dragon zombie fell and the seed dropped.
　I suppress my inclination to deviate and carefully pick up the seed.

　--Dexterity has gone up 1.

'--Okay!

　The joy came out in a gut-wrenching way, even if I held back.

　The road to the All-SS was in sight.
