[Let’s take a look at the other floors . I wish to understand the situation on each floor . ] (Ryouta)

[Yeah, that is a good idea . ] (Celeste)

[Nn . ] (Eve)

Celeste and Eve agreed and we headed down to another floor in Plumb.u.m .

All of the dungeon’s floors were [breathable under water] .

Though our movement has slowed down, at least Celeste could still cast her various magics, though not as effective .

Even my bullets have slowed down by quite a bit, probably around half of its original powers .

Furthermore, even moving at full speed, the resistance from the water is consuming a great deal of our stamina .

So, it’s better to move slowly and at a constant speed .

It’s similar to walking in a pool .

Also, what we found was that the monsters are all [fish] .

There’s goldfish with horns, or whales with wings in the water, but ultimately they’re all fish type monsters .

What’s more, they have the exact same characteristics, where they will split if you don’t defeat them in one hit .

Even if I tried defeating them with a single blow, I often lose my momentum, and just barely defeat them with wounds on myself .

What a tricky place .

[The problem here is really the splitting characteristics of the monsters . ] (Celeste)

While we were proceeding, Celeste said what I was thinking .

[That’s right . ] (Ryouta)

[It’ll be great if we can change that, but how can we change the characteristics of the monsters?] (Celeste)

[I guess I can try to see if breeding can be done here . Maybe we can change the monster itself . ] (Ryouta)

[Then we need to call two more people from the mansion . ] (Celeste)

[That’s unnecessary . ] (Ryouta)

Eve suddenly tilted her neck in confusion .

[In order to breed, we need 2 or more spirit name holders, that’s Shikuro’s rule . But since we’re at Tetramine, I doubt that such a rule has been introduced yet . ] (Ryouta)

[So low level …is enough for the job . ] (Eve)

[So you’re leaving it to me only?] (Ryouta)

I bitterly laughed as I retorted .

[Low level can do it . Bunny believes . ] (Eve)

[I mean, I can do something about it, but I do need help when needed . I’ll give you as much carrots as you want . ] (Ryouta)

[Rabbit’s motivation has surpa.s.sed even the G.o.ds . ] (Eve)

Though it’s cheap, I added Eve’s cooperation .

With the three of us, we chatted whilst defeating the monsters and continued descending to the lower floors .

Plumb.u.m, the last floor .

The Dungeon Snow phenomenon is present here, and as usual we can breathe underwater .

[So this is the last floor . ] (Ryouta)

[Based on what was told, this is the last floor . ] (Celeste)

[The monsters are fish, but they look like dogs . ] (Ryouta)

[What a strange sight . ] (Celeste)

So what Eve said was right .

The last floor is a monster fish, but it has limbs .

The hands were hairy, and the feet have fishnet tights .

It’s weird that the dog is swimming—–with limbs .

[At least it’s a fish… . I guess . ] (Ryouta)

[Yeah . ] (Celeste)

[Let’s just defeat it and bookmark it . ] (Ryouta)

I took out my revolver .

Thinking whether I should use it, I decided to at least defeat it once so I could use Repet.i.tion .

The revolver is loaded with the Homing Bullets .

After various tests, in this “underwater” where my bullets speed drop, the Homing Bullet deals the most damage .

Of course, if we get used to it, I can use other bullets, but I want to bookmark it first .

Putting my finger on the trigger, I held my revolver—-

[Eh?] (Ryouta)

[It-It disappeared!] (Celeste)

Celeste and I were surprised at the same time .

When I was aiming at the monster, it suddenly disappeared .

[Low level, take a closer look . ] (Eve)

[… . It completely disappeared?] (Ryouta)

When being pointed out, I noticed that the monster had completely disappeared .

[Ah, a Dungeon Master is around . ] (Celeste)

[I see . It would be bad if we let a Dungeon Master go rampant, so let’s find it and kill it . ](Ryouta)

[Yeah . ] (Celeste)

[Can’t be helped . ] (Eve)

For the time being, it doesn’t seem to be on this floor, so we went back up one floor at a time .

[Eh?] (Ryouta)

I was surprised by the situation .

On the higher floors, the fish monsters were swimming normally as if nothing ever happened .

[There’s monsters? But isn’t there a Dungeon Master?] (Ryouta)

[Yeah… That’s supposed to be it . ] (Celeste)

It’s surprising that the dungeon doesn’t adhere to normal dungeons .

[Let’s try going back down . ] (Ryouta)

[Yeah . ] (Celeste)

Celeste nodded, and Eve was silent .

We went back down again .

Again there were no monsters . Only the Dungeon Snow was falling .

[What’s going on?] (Ryouta)

[Rabbit will ask the town’s people . ] (Eve)

Eve said and turned around, walking up the stairs .

Then after around 10 minutes, Eve returned .

[So how was it?] (Ryouta)

[No one knows, this has never happened before . ] (Eve)

[Such a strange phenomenon . It only happened when Ryoutsan held his gun . ] (Celeste)

[Aah, you’re right . ] (Ryouta)

[It’s as though they do not want Ryoutsan to defeat them . ] (Celeste)

[… . They do not want me to beat them? Here?] (Ryouta)

[Yeah… . Aah . ] (Celeste)

Celeste noticed something .

There is another reason why the other floors are alright but not the final floor .

Spirit .

The road leading to the spirit’s room is a major premise .

With me having Drop S, it is much easier to open the path down to the spirit’s room .

But still .

This world is inflexible .

If I have Drop S, then if there’s no monster, I can’t see the spirit .

And, the person who is controlling this is .

[The spirit here, Plumb.u.m . It doesn’t want to meet with me?] (Ryouta)

[That might be the case . Similar to what Aurum has done in the past, she could control the monster and drops in the dungeon . So it’s normal for this spirit to stop monsters from sp.a.w.ning . ] (Celeste)

[If monster is set up, low level may inadvertently break through . ] (Eve)

[So set it so that monsters will never sp.a.w.n here forever?] (Ryouta)

The more we brainstorm, the more we were convinced .

[But what should we do? I’m happy that it is being wary of Ryoutsan, but we can’t do anything without monsters . ] (Celeste)

[Nah, I don’t think there’s any problem . ] (Ryouta)

[Huh?] (Celeste)

[Eve . ] (Ryouta)

[Low level sure loves using people . ] (Eve)

Even then turned up again and climbed the stairs .

[What does that mean Ryoutsan?] (Celeste)

[Bad potatoes . ] (Ryouta)

[Bad potatoes… . Aah, bring a drop from this floor and leave it there . ] (Celeste)

[Yes . We can hatch a monster using this floor’s own drop . ] (Ryouta)

[I see, but I wonder if that would go well . It might take some time to do that, so isn’t it necessary to do it on the spot?] (Celeste)

[… . . It’s alright . ] (Ryouta)

I felt like I could do it .

This Dungeon Spirit who is avoiding me .

I’m sure—–

[Done . ] (Eve)

Eve came back with a bottle of white liquid .

[Is this the drop of this floor?] (Ryouta)

[Yes, goat milk . There were only two left . ] (Eve)

[Only 2? I see, there aren’t many people in Tetramine, so production for this is hard to come by… Are you sure it’s going to be alright Ryoutsan?] (Celeste)

[Yeah, I’ll use it wisely—— And I think it’s enough to use only one . ] (Ryouta)

I took the goat milk, placed it on the ground, and we walked to a distance .

After awhile, the dog like fish with limbs was hatched .

I held my revolver, fired the Homing Bullet and defeated the fish .

Then, the way is shown .

[I’m sure the Dungeon Spirit erased all the monsters is because it’s afraid that this would open immediately . ] (Ryouta)

[I see now! Amazing, Ryoutsan!] (Celeste)

[Well then, shall we?] (Ryouta)

Let’s head to the spirit who is trying to avoid me .

If nothing goes wrong, it would be a cinch, but since we’re here, let’s at least go in once .
