Otoko Nara Ikkokuichijou no Aruji o Mezasa Nakya, ne? Chapter 236

Next chapter in 8-16 hours maybe. The chapters are about to get kind of cliffhanger-ish. Might do a few before posting the next.

Center of the 8th Floor

But, as expected it seems to be pushing it a bit right.

Well, I can't imagine that they would use that a reason to say something to me though. It's not like any casualties have ever come out as a result of hiding the amount of mana I have after all. In the first place in order to use spells you have to concentrate to the point of barely being able to remain conscious of anything else. That trend is particularly strong for advanced spells. This is something that every adventurer knows. Unless something of significant importance happens, idiots who carelessly use spells won't survive. That's why there's no one who would criticize me over something like that.

I think it'll be fine for the time being but when it comes to Ginger, Misu, and Jeru who have the most motivation and the highest possibility of changing out I'll follow up with them somehow, and depending on the case I think it might be fine to explain things about being reincarnated to them the same as Zenom and Zulu. It's not like there's any sort of harm in that information being exposed. Even if they say we reincarnated from a world with an advanced civilization if there's no proof of making something like that then they'll just be called liars.

Right now about the only thing is the mincer I guess? Even that if you just look at the inside the structure isn't all that complex. A skilled blacksmith or goldsmith can make something similar. The precision is high but from just a glance there's no way of telling that far after all. Even if you check it's status it just says, Brass Industrial Art Object {Brass.Craft}. Normally it would just end with saying, "Yeah, that's amazing, I'm amazed you thought of it. You're intelligent."

In order for the structure to not be leaked so easily we split up the parts and ordered them separately through various blacksmiths and goldsmiths in the capital and Baldukk. In the worst case, even if interference comes from the royal family or some other place I can't imagine it's at the level where it's no problem to cover it up. Rather, something like the structure of a mincer it's fine if the secret can just be protected for a couple of years. During that time it's important to create the brand image and put some distance between the copies made afterwards. The reason why Sha*essen still sells well at a comparatively high price even among similar products is largely because of the brand image it made being the first.

After that we quickly dispersed and went to purchase the food we were going to consume in the dungeon as well as producing sausages, then ate dinner. Furthermore, Bel and Toris kneaded some wheat flour to make some appropriate dough and made shuumai and gyoza. It's regrettable that it can't be preserved and we don't have any soy sauce. Also, there's a large room for improvements left that can made to the dough used for wrapping.

Ralpha, Gwine, and Miduchi were all making various things like "Meat Manju!" or "Hamburger!!" as well. They made some minced cutlets as well but just the same as the hamburger, if you don't use beef it's not very good. Ah, come to think of it there were some things close to pork cutlets and chicken cutlets since the past.

Year 7446, Month 6, Day 30

Three days ago, I finished my running the same as usual and then we rushed into the dungeon right away. On just the first day I joined the {Exterminators} and Miduchi the {Butchers} as we all gathered together in the teleport room on the 3rd room, then starting from the second day I did the usual party with just Zulu as we cleared past the 6th floor. On the third day, yesterday we took our time gathering magic stones while killing ogres and escorted Giberuti through the 7th floor, then finally today, we stepped foot on the 8th floor. As a good sign, we were able to teleport to a location connected to the center room, so we spent four hours making an effort to get there.

We're taking a short break before entering the room.

The circumference of the room is believed to be roughly 6.3 km with a diameter of about 2km. This is something we confirmed by doing a lap around it once together with Gwine, so we can say there's almost no mistake that it's a circle. Miduchi, you'll take the lead about 50 meters ahead and scout things out. If you find anything then stop. If there's any sort of problem them come back right away. In any case we'll know from {Party-ization} after all."

After confirming everyone nodded I continue.

"If there's nothing in particular then we'll take up the formation {Double Trail} in the rear behind Miduchi. I'll take the lead alone. Next up will be Zenom and Ralpha. Third will be Zulu and Angela, Gwine and Basutoral will be after that. Toris and Bel will be at the very rear. Alright? If hostilities are started then I'll dash to the front as we switch over to {Arrowhead.One}. On that occasion we'll take Miduchi into the formation. Whether I'll remain at the front or switch to the rear depends on the opponent. It's fine to take as much time as we need. Let's move carefully."

I think it was when we slowly advanced ahead for about 30 minutes at a speed of less than 1 km/hour?

Suddenly the sensation of {Party-ization} vanished. I can see Miduchi's back showing signs of bewilderment about 50 meters ahead of us with my Identify vision.

"Shit!!"

""Madam!""

The sensation of {Party-ization} vanished and several voices were raised in a panic. At the same time Zulu, Angela, and I left the formation as we ran off. There's no doubt that she cut off the {Party-ization} because of some abnormality.

"Miduchi!!"

In response to my shout, I can tell Miduchi was looking around restlessly in doubt as she turned around. Just from a glance there doesn't seem to be any problem. Even if I use Identify on her like that there's no problem. I can tell that everyone is following after us from their presence.

What in the world happened? is what Miduchi asked us when she came over to us as we came running up.

"Ah, what is it!?"

"Huh..suddenly {Party-ization} was cut off. That's strange...Sorry. I'll try using it once more."

What the, really..And huh? That's strange.

"It isn't a monster?"

Zenom said as he caught up.

"Nn, I'm sorry. It seems different. I'll use {Party-ization} once mo.."Huh?"

It was when Miduchi had said that and was about to touch Zenom to start. After confirming Miduchi was safe as Angela moved a bit ahead in order to confirm the surroundings and raised her voice in doubt. She's sniffing with her nose. Her expression was a bit off for the mood but everyone spread out with their weapons in hand.

We thought something was picked up by Angela's {Super Sense of Smell}.

"Huh? It's strange..My nose doesn't work."

Yes?

"It isn't a monster right?"

Bel confirmed with Angela.

"Yeah, it feels like I can't use my {Super Sense of Smell}."

I reflexively Identified Angela.

There's nothing abnormal.

"Nn, there's no problem. I was properly able to use {Party-ization} on Zenom-san."

"Hmm. It seems things are fine."

It seems Miduchi and Zenom used {Party-ization} once more.

Just as I saw from Identify there doesn't seem to be any problem with Miduchi. However, it somehow doesn't make sense. Miduchi's {Party-ization} isn't released that easily. Whether she's in the middle of combat or sleeping if the user Miduchi doesn't will to turn it from On to Off or will for the unit to be disbanded then it's no good. That was released? Angela said she wasn't able to use her {Super Sense of Smell} anymore either..Something is strange.

"It can't be..Gwine, come over here for a bit."

I pulled Gwine's arm and moved her to stand next to Angela. However, along the way Gwine raised her voice.

"Huh.."

It seems Gwine's {Mapping} was cut off as well. I wonder if from around there over to here is a location where you can no longer use Special Skills or Unique Abilities? To test it I tried using Identify but just as I thought I couldn't use it. I told Gwine to try using {Infrared Vision} as well but obviously she couldn't use that either.

"Let's go back a bit."

I urged everyone as we went back out of the area a bit. After returning it seems I was able to use Identify once again.

"Just now, I understood from pulling Gwine. It seems that around that area you can't use Skills anymore."

"Eh..Please wait just a moment. Then magic as well!?"

Toris said with a surprised face.

I said that while looking around at everyone.
