After it invaded the palace of the [Sun King], reaching up to his bed, the [Demon Whisper] moved even closer, but was caught by the [Sun King]'s body double "Wolf Shriganus" and was captured.
Shriganus, which had a head, body hair, and tail similar to a jackal also had the body of a strong adult male over three meters tall but, because he did not have weapons or any overt murderous intentions, so he was able to capture the [Demon Whisper] without killing it.
Then, he grasped its neck so that he could pierce its area of influence at any time.
As easily as breaking a twig, if any force was used the [Demon Whisper's] neck would be just as easily broken.
Well, it's a messenger that was originally made to be disposable.
Even though the demon was refined for that purpose, the reason for its existence will be lost unless it can complete the mission.
So, after talking about the documents that it brought in its mouth, it drank poison and killed itself.
Accordingly, [Human Bomb] was activated.
At this time the minuscule explosions occurred between its hundreds of millions or more cells to shred up the flesh to pieces, [Demon Whisper] disappeared without causing any damage to its surroundings.
Only the bundle of specially processed documents was left behind.
Incidentally, even though Shriganus had grabbed its neck, he did not seem to have even the slightest damage.
Yes, even though such a thing happened yesterday, but up to now there has not been any noticeable reaction from them.
However, the movements of our suspects became more active, something could happen in the future.
While thinking such things, we arrived at one of the nearby [God's Age Dungeons], [Selection of the Red and White Crown - Urgeleto · Boraris].
This is a general scale [God's Age Dungeons] composed of five temple-like palaces, a central structure with the White Canyon Temples on the left and right, and the Red Crown Palace in front of and behind.
Here, because of the [Sun King's] influence, there is an extensive history of people attempting to capture the dungeon going back generations, so the information available is plentiful, you can listen to most kinds of the dungeon monsters, types of traps, and hidden gimmicks that appear for the price of a drink at any bar.
Well, even if the information is available in advance, it is a [God's Age Dungeon] that has never been captured before.
If you know what to do, the scale of the attempt is also common in size, and it should not be too difficult to capture this place without any special gimmick.
As a pair, Kanami-chan and I appeared in front of the Dungeon monsters -
"Sabakutogata- Desert Spider- Although it is about ten centimeters in size, they form flocks of hundred and fills up the aisles.
Dark demon "Black · Satan Cloth" carries on its back a bag filled with sand that gives various [Abnormal Conditions] like [Coma] and [Paralysis]
As large as a human, having the appearance of a cobra with arms and legs attached - "Viper Guardian Soldiers · Cobra Teion".
Rolling down the passage with a spherical body, the "Explosion Debris Ball Golem · Bhoomus Tiger Golem" spreads out sharp debris as it explodes after being hit.
A scorpion moving at high speed to protects itself with a strong red outer shell, it cuts or restrains prey with a sharp scissor-like pincers and stabs out with four poisonous tails, "Four Tail Red Poison Scorpion · Ogsula Burjugue".
Their individual numbers are small, but boasting a strength comparable to that of a floor boss. Having the upper body of a human and the lower body of a winged lion "Lion of the Selection Palace · Balaur Sphinx".
- We quickly finished slaughtering them all in a short amount of time.
The real need for a strategy begins at the point where a person defeats the 4 field bosses sitting at the two Crown Palaces and the White Canyons.
The Red Palaces are distinguished by the front and rear entrances, in the front Palace is a monster of the [Lizardman] system looking like a strong male with the head of a snake "Criminal Boss · Mushunamu " appeared. In the rear palace, with the upper body of a nude women and the lower body of a snake, from the [Lamia] system " Lamia Guardian of Hmnusushim" exists.
The man Mushunamu is excellent in close combat warfare, and the woman, Hmnusushim is good at handling [Magic], so if they stay together, their balance is good.
Whether or not that would be true, as they are separate, there was nothing troubling to deal with so far.
The White Citadels are just as distinguishable on the left and right, in the right White Citadel, there is a "Right Guardian Zemenathus" with the head of an eagle and the body of a man. In the left is a "Left Guardian Sutnamese" whose head is an eagle with a female body.
As in the two Red Palaces, the man Zemenathus is an advance guard with the woman Sutnamese seems to be a better fit for a rear-guard, but this may fly a bit or could just be too difficult to fly away with.
By the 4 bodies laid out at the deepest part of each temple, most of the captures attempts seem to be repelled, even if they reach this point, but we broke through without any problems.
Kanami prepares large-scale magic attacks at the rear, but I already mostly finished up with a black spear.
The [Demonic Overload] effect from the two black spears I obtained is tremendous, just with piercing an opponent it will end it with the body disappearing or liquefaction.
Of course the debris was delicious.
With a somewhat chicken-like taste, after I liquefied it I enjoyed it as a juice.
By combining the 4 drops gained after defeating the four bosses, a crown was formed with two red and two white colored parts, as if a white crown was fitted inside a red crown.
Toward the mid-evening, as I entered the center palace with Kanami-chan, we walked up to a closed door marked «Between Selection » that marked the boss room entrance.
This [Labyrinth Main Dungeon Boss ] is called [Pruno Nekjet].
It has the head of a ferocious yellow cobra that is wearing a red and white crown.
Its long neck stretches out from a human body wearing a light-duty priest robe with a demonic tint to balance it out, all the exposed parts of the body was covered with hard scales, and a long tail grew from its back.
On its back were a pair of red and white wings like an eagle's, white wings on the right and red on the left.
It had an appearance like a mixture of the floor bosses in the other palaces, but there were signs of it being several times tougher.
I can use powerful magics, attacks using a nerve poison fog from its cobra fangs, physical attacks from its sturdy body, and raining attacks from the sky with flight using its red and white wings.
With such an ominous attack, not even a single scale was hurt, and the [Demonic] serpent caused the target to suffer [Atrophy].
Since it could also [summon] a huge cobra, it can lessen our numerical strength, and if it receives more than a certain amount of damage it could recover by molting its skin.
It was proud of that embarrassing amount of strength as [Labyrinth Boss], which had no weaknesses, but unfortunately the opponent was bad after all.
Offsetting magic with magic, if a neurotoxic mist was released it was met with an equal poison and, even if it approached, it will be liquefied or disappear entirely with my black spears.
Kanami's ice storm would blow it down if it tried to fly into the sky, which also dulled the movement of [Pruno Nekjet], which was used to a climate controlled area.
Although it took a while to recover the full use of its physical fitness and toughness, more than anything thanks to its molting, it was still able to recover its strength safely.
[Dungeon boss [Purunto-Nekujeto] has been successfully subjugated]
[As a bonus for being the first to subjugate, the treasure chest [Red and White Crown Coffin] was awarded to all participants]
[As a privilege for conquering, the ban on the use of the Warp Gate is lifted]
[Please note that only those who conquered the dungeon can use the Warp Gate]
[For those who have Awakened the Psalms／The key figures of God's Lost Psalms, a part of the [God of the Color Crown]'s divine power will be granted ]
[As the collector is an important figure of a Greater God, the quality of the Divine Power collected will be inferior]
[Portions of the Divine Power rejected by this rule will be turned into an object]
[Yatendouji has obtained[God of Color Crown - Treasure Crown Plunellitou Ratchyard] ]
[The effects of the Special Skill [Dungeon Plunder] allows complete mastery and ownership of the conquered dungeon ]]
[Conforming to the conditions, it is possible to seize the [Selection House of the Red and White Crown].
[Will you do so?]
[« YES » « NO » ]
I selected « YES » immediately and put it under my control.
The name of [Selection House of the Red and White Crown - Urujereto-Volaris] was changed to [Selected Red and White Crown - Tokiwa Urujereto · Boralis · Onus].
Since it was too troublesome, I did not change much about the internal structure, and just strengthened the dungeon monsters.
It was not be a problem to raise the difficulty level of those monsters.
When I finished configuring everything, I immediately ate the remaining flesh of [Pruno Nekjet].
This time we cooked the long tail first, as it is OK to eat all of it.
Even if we used a simple method to cut the tail into the proper size for baking it.
Still because the material was good and delicious, the quality of the toughened meat seems to have accumulated the meat juice after lightly burning the surface.
As you chew it, the hot broth and grease spilled out, with the coated salt further complementing it.
The smell was also good, somewhere close to the dragon meat taste.
Ability learned: [Crown Giver] learned
Whatever this kind of abilities is, it seems to be a thing where, after finding talented people who are strong enough, I can bestow a treasure crown.
It may be difficult to understand, but now I am able to assess their potential.
Anyway, I could learn a new recipe for a while, but I left the rest to be cooked by the Sisters to learn more.
Basically it was a snake, so it might be fun to eat it like an eel.
