473 473. Knight Sir Princess




 This isn't enough to tell me, I need to test more things.

 So I switched from regular bullets to ironclad bullets and pulled the trigger.
 I only loaded one round, but two ironclad bullets were launched in the same way as before.

"This one's going up too, huh?

 While murmuring, I touched the sluggishly advancing steel bullets.
 Then - I was surprised.

 This is nothing more than a feeling.

 As soon as I teamed up with a sumo wrestler at an event, I knew I couldn't win, no matter what I tried.

 I knew that I could do it.

 With a single deep breath, I grabbed the iron bullet and pulled it out.

"Uguguugu ...... haha!

 After the full force of the force SS, or if you want, the full force of the force SS, the direction of travel of the ironclad bullets "curled" after you put all your weight on it (only in a mood sense).

 An "absolute" level of ironclad bullets, which we used to call crap bullets, and recently became proud of its straight-line power to twist space.

 It was able to change direction with just my power.
 I was able to do it.

 This was shocking.

 At the same time, I almost understood.

"So instead of increasing their numbers, they're weakening their effects.

 I shot a whole range of special bullets, from flame rounds to blue flame rounds.
 All of them, without exception, turn into two rounds just by putting one round in and launching it out.
 And in all of them, the effect is weakened immensely.

 I see, I thought.

     ☆

That's why.

 Cyclodungeon Society, President's office.
 I launched the safest, scrap bullets I could find and showed them to Cell.

''When you wear this ring, instead of increasing your numbers, the effect will be weaker.
I see, that's great, Sato-sama. How easily you figured out the effect of that crack in the stone.
It's all well and good, but I don't know what to do with it. Besides,
And?
I don't know if other adventurers would drop it if they did.

 I haven't told Cell about the details of the Drop S, but we've known each other for a long time and we've done a lot of things together, and Cell knows that I have "more drop power than your average adventurer".

Then you can try it out.
What?
Here.

 Seru said and took out the crack stone again.
 He also took out a ticket and held both of them out to me on the table.

"I see you still have it.
'I knew Satou-sama would need it soon, so I made it a top priority to secure the one I dropped. Still, it was only one thing.
It's pretty rare.
Go ahead, try your luck.
Thank you. I'll let you try it.

 I said, and while standing up, I held out my hand towards Cell.
 Cell smiled and stood up as well and shook hands with me - a moment.

 Thud.

 From Cell's bosom, a figure-sized statue fell to the ground.

'You work fast! I mean, it's almost on a predictive level, isn't it!

 I'm the one who goes into the big time.
 The statue that Cell dropped was of a stylish pair of dungeon attackers.
 It was me and Margaret's pair.

     Stars.

 I was back in the dungeon again, and I had Margaret with me.

'Sorry to call you out of the blue,'
No, sir. I'd be in the fire and in the water for Mr. Lyota.

 As usual, Margaret, who was dressed in a pure white princess dress, said with a slight blush on her cheeks.

 Although I said "prediction level" to the cell, this is certainly the best I can understand.

 Margaret.

 She's an adventurer of extreme status, with all combat abilities of F and all drop abilities of A, even though she's level 99.
 Her own combat power is like scum to put it in a bad way, but if she specializes in keeping it, she has the highest drop power of all adventurers.

 Furthermore, all drops are high and all combat power is low to begin with at the lowest level.
 It can be used in any dungeon.

 In order to specialize in staying there, she has four ninja knights, Rato, Socha, Prey and Builder.

 The knights are extremely loyal to her.
 When I explained this to Sakura recently, she said.

'You're a knight-sir princess!'

 I was summed up in a blunt, unapologetic, not-quite-right, not-quite-right way.

 I smiled at Margaret and thanked her for her help.

I'm sure you'll be able to find it. Are your knights coming with you?
They're here. Rato, Socha, Play, Builder.

「「「「 haha 」」」」

 A moment later, four knights appeared beyond her.

 I had no idea when they appeared, even though they were in my field of vision.
 I thought they were still gods and goddesses, just like ninjas.

The first thing I'll share with you is that after you use some items, something like the King of Orcs will appear on a chariot. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. Can you deal with it?
No trouble.

 One of the knights answered immediately.
 The remaining three looked at me with serious eyes, as if to say that the rest of them did too.

''Uh ......, um, I'd like to get some tactical details for you.''

 In any case, it's enough damage to penetrate the absolute defense of the Absolute Rock stone and my SS status.
 I had to figure it out properly, so I went further and asked.

What's it like, and how?
"It is done with respect for our princess.
No, that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about more specific techniques and principles.
"If you are a true knight in the service of your lord, everything about your lord is possible.
"We may not be true knights, but the princess is a true master, and we have four of them.
Nothing is impossible with four men, even a half man.
I don't get it.

 I don't know, but I could feel a tremendous amount of confidence - or conviction.
 Or rather, it even sounds like a definite statement now.

 It's amazing.

 Well, that's that.

''Then that's good. I'll do all the attacking, then. Margaret, I'll give you a signal when it's over.
Yes, I understand.

 The knights decided to let them focus on Margaret's defense.
 It's good that they're confident, but since they don't know anything, it's safer to let them focus on that side.

 After a rough plan was put together, I took out my ticket and the processed crack stone and used it.

 Just like last time, the Orc King showed up in his chariot.
 I was also curious to see if the repetition would work, but I went to Margaret first.
 I had to see if Drop A (normal blacksmith) would work first.

 Large damage is also disabled, so I jumped out of the way and used my normal bullets to tickle it while I jumped out of the way.

 I'm sure you'll be able to see that the tank's rush is a pattern once you get used to it, so I was able to scrape it off while treating it appropriately.

 And then - the Oak King gets off the tank.

 Since this was the second time, I used the Absolute Rock stone beforehand and fired a series of recovery rounds from just before it "came".

 Although I took damage that made me faint for a moment, I was able to recover with the recovery bullets immediately afterwards, so it wasn't a big deal.

 The Orc King, who has completely dismounted, glances at Margaret while attacking with more regular bullets.

''?''

 She hadn't lost her elegant appearance.
 She was stone-faced, as if nothing had happened.

 ...... amazing knights.

 You really did a great job of protecting Margaret.
 I'm impressed, and I'm grinding away at the Oak King.

 When my physical senses tell me that I'm about to fall over, I stop my hand.

'Margaret!'
I understand.

 Margaret ran out, dragging her great sword with her.

 It's not a great move to flatter her.
 In fact, she even feels like a no-good girl for dragging the great sword.

 Still, she ran in and swung the great sword at the brain of the Orc King whose limbs were bound by something that looked like a shadow before she knew it.

 The final blow that she visited on the unresisting Orc King.
 It worked well, and the Orc King fell.

 And.

''I did it.

 Margaret picked up the dropped ring and smiled as if it had blossomed.
