Letting the day pass, it was now the next day──
Diablo arrived at the 《Dark Green Cathedral》 that was deep within the 《Man-Eating Forest》.
It was a temple covered in moss, and was half collapsed.
If it was the same as the game, then the dungeon should extend down underground.
Departing Faltra City early in the morning, it was now just before noon.
His fellow traveller was only Sylvie.
「We’ve finally arrived, haven’t we, Diablo-san.」
「Umu.」
「The quest is just as I explained it in the town……」
「Just leave it to me.」
The contents weren’t that difficult.
It was to obtain a mass of enchanted metal known as 《Eternal Mythril》 which was found at the deepest part of this 《Dark Green Cathedral》.
By entrusting that to the town’s engraver, it could be processed into 《Marriage Rings》.
──It’s a bit different from the MMORPG Cross Reverie.
In the game, when the special quest is cleared with only a party of a man and a woman, 《Marriage Rings》 are granted as a completion bonus.
Sylvie gave an explanation.
「If it didn’t have to be the special 《Marriage Rings》, we could have entrusted the job to any old jeweler though.」
「So it would seem.」
Normal things were mere jewelry
What Diablo sought were 《Marriage Rings》 which were considered as magic tools.
In the game, it was merely a pointless item but……
In this other world, it possessed the effect of “making it possible to create children between different races”.
「To think it would appear in this 《Dark Green Cathedral》……」
「It is no problem.」
As if to cut off the conversation, Diablo hurried on ahead.
He pushed open the stone doors.
He descended the stairway.
《The Dark Green Cathedral・Underground Floor 1》──
It was a dungeon made of stone.
The moss faintly shined, and thanks to that, they had no difficulty in walking even without having to use illumination magic.
Sylvie spoke as if to make sure of something.
「Diablo-san, don’t use any flashy magic, okay? I don’t want to be buried alive after all.」
「What a pain……」
「Fufu……What a strange feeling♪ This is my first time saying “hold back on the power” to a Chemical Elemental Magician.」
In this other world. Chemical Elemental Magic hadn’t developed. When speaking of Magicians, Summoners were the mainstream.
「Well, it is safer being a Summoner after all.」
He thought that was the case even in advancing through a dungeon just like this.
──Isn’t there a monster lurking in the shadow of the pillar? Wouldn’t we be attacked the moment we turn the corner? What about mechanisms in the floors and walls?
If a Summoned Beast were used, it would be possible to scout out the area.
Conversely, Chemical Elemental Magicians that needed to charge up were weak to receiving surprise attacks.
In the game, whether they were killed in a surprise attack by monsters, or had died from activating a trap, it would just end with only a penalty.
In this other world, whether if it was by a surprise attack, or a careless mistake……Once they died, it was over.
So it was only natural that a majority of the Magicians would aim to become Summoners.
Sylvie shouted.
「Diablo-san!」
「I’ve noticed!」
From behind, gigantic claws came swinging down.
He evaded with the minimum amount of movement.
When he turned around, it was a bear.
It was a monster with the outward appearance that seemed like it was a fancy teddy bear.
《Blessing Bear》
One mustn’t be deceived by its cute appearance.
This was a level 99 monster.
Diablo readied his Magic Staff, the 《Tonnerre Empereur》.
「Get blown away! 《Lightning Bullet》!!」
He fired a bullet of light.
A hole was drilled into the body of the 《Blessing Bear》.
The opponent was blown away.
However, since that was a level 80 magic, it didn’t have the power to defeat it in a single attack.
The monster that had a hole opened up in its stomach got up.
Furthermore, from behind the opponent, several more 《Blessing Bears》 came bustling in.
Sylvie shouted.
「《Holy Wood Bind》!!」
From the stone floor, shining vines sprouted out, and coiled about the group of monsters.
Going *Gaaaa!*, the enemies howled.
That was Support Magic.
Against a level 99 monster, it should stop its movements for six seconds.
Diablo charged his magic, and fired it.
「Burn away! 《Chain Lightning》!!」
It was magic that dealt a powerful lightning attack to a whole crowd of enemies.
*Bachi bachi* Sparks scattered, and the group of 《Blessing Bears》 spasmed.
Although their exteriors were burnt black, they came charging in.
Diablo clicked his tongue.
「They are surprisingly sturdy.」
In this other world, even the monsters had a trend of being weaker than they were in the game. It was probably because they also realistically avoided unnecessary fights.
However, these 《Blessing Bears》 possessed HP that wasn’t that different from how they were in the game, and were very warlike.
──Is it because they are monsters created by magic?
「《Ice Storm》!!」
From the tip of his held out staff, an intense squall of cold air was produced, and ran wild around the enemy.
The monsters were freezing up.
*Gugaaaa!!*
They roared.
Then they were smashed to pieces.
Finally──is what Diablo thought and breathed a sigh of relief in his mind.
Sylvie, who had erased her presence, raised her voice again.
「More are coming!」
Just as she said, they had been completely defeated, but 《Blessing Bears》 surged forth from further within the dungeon.
Although they were only level 99 monsters, having this many of them at once was troublesome.
Diablo raised the ends of his lips.
「Hmph……Just how I like it. I will annihilate the whole lot of them. There was also something that I wanted to test out anyway.」
Diablo fired the magic 《Lightning Bullet》 with his right hand.
A bullet of light sprung forth.
However, firing it with his right hand, he hit it onto his own left hand. He did a 《Magic Reflection》 with it.
Taking that reflected back bullet of light, he received it with his right hand.
It was reflected once again.
He was able to contain the shining bullet of magic in between his hands.
──With this being another world, I guess this sort of thing is possible.
The scope of practical use was wider than how things were in the game.
If it was merely multiplexing magic attacks, then it would be possible to do through his current main weapon, the 《Tonnerre Empereur》. Although the MP consumption would drastically increase.
However, if he were to make practical use of this reflection……
Diablo once again chanted magic.
「《Dark Bullet》!!」
──This is a cliche though.
He superimposed a bullet of light and a bullet of darkness.
In Diablo’s hands, the pure Chemical Elemental Magic changed into something heterogeneous.
Beside him, Sylvie opened her eyes wide.
「Wha!? Diablo-san……What’s that……!?」
「It’s Composite Magic!!」
It’s magic that didn’t exist in the MMORPG Cross Reverie.
It was new magic.
At one end, Diablo placed his fingertips on it.
The torrent that was between his hands was released towards the monsters.
A thunderous sound resounded throughout the dungeon.
