Shitara Slime Datta Ken (WN)
Results And Conclusion

Realizing that the invaders had entered his realm, the Ghost King [1] Adalman curled his fleshless lips.

Then, he made a sound by gritting his teeth slightly.

It was hard to understand it, but it could be said that Ghost King Adalman grinned widely, and sneered.

「It looks like you are in a pretty good mood, Adalman-sama.」

The man, who was a Holy Knight, and his trusted confidant, greeted Adalman.

He is a ghost, and has no physical body. However, he stood up with a figure that had not changed since he was still alive.

Although he had turned into a ghost, which was considered a monster, he had neither humans nor monsters, but had built his body, which was the same as when he was alive, out of many corpses.

As for Adalman, he had no attachment to his body when he was alive, although he was somewhat happy with his current figure, which had become a bone.

While the confidant Adalman, who was a former Holy Knight Commander, may have had attachment and pride to his appearance during his lifetime.

It was because of its refreshing appearance ――Although it is strange to say that Ghost refreshes ―― facial features of a young man.

But from the blue blobs flying around him, and his pale skin, it was obvious that he was not alive.

「Yes, I'm in a good mood. Guests seem to have come, Albert. 」

He told his confidant, former Holy Knight Commander Albert, about the presence of the invaders.

He answered,

「Once, did they finally come?」

Understanding everything, Albert ―― who is now a Death Paladin (Ghost Holy Knight) [2] ―― nodded happily.

In the past, they had gone to carry out purification with good intentions to prevent the outbreak of large-scale dead spirit calamities on the battlefield in the Jura Great Forest.

In doing so, Priest Adalman and the four holy knights had left together, but they faced an unexpected situation.

When they arrived at the remnants of the battlefield, the Zombie Dragon (Carcass Dragon) [3] a terrifying monster, lived there.

Although they had managed to defeat the Zombie Dragon after a desperate fight, they had used all their strength there.

No one came to save them, for they did not act on the orders of the church, but on the basis of their own convictions.

Thus, their fate was sealed, but their hearts, who were expecting peace from the Great Jura Forest caused a miracle.

Well, instead of a miracle, it might be a disaster for them…

Adalman's group turned into ghosts after receiving the curse of the dead, and a large amount of magic essence [4].

However, with a strong will, Priest Adalman and Holy Knight Commander Albert managed to keep their egos.

Priest Adalman becomes the King of the Undead, the ghost king.

Holy Knight Commander Albert became the Death Paladin.

And his three subordinates became Death Lords (Ghost Knight Leader) [5].

The Ghost King Adalman who, having obtained the abilities of a Necromancer (Dead Lord) [6], dominated the dead spirits around him, and lived inside a cave.

It was an old story more than a few hundred years ago.

The rules of time do not apply them, which have become undead, so the number of years that have passed cannot be confirmed.

But, he was aware of the birth of the new ruler of the Jura Great Forest.

That's natural.

After the disappearance of Storm Dragon Veldora, he had sent his subordinates to gather information, as he expected the forest to become turbulent.

As a result, he chose to submit to the new Demon King. As if, he had become his subordinate.

“Yes. The time for us to be useful for Demon Lord Rimuru-sama, who gave us peace, has finally come.

If in this labyrinth, I could employ the deceased as I please, unlike during the long cave life, this place was filled with excitement.

We have to prove our loyalty to our “God”, which has given us such a beautiful environment. 」

“Iya! This Albert, understand. 」

Adalman nodded at Albert's response with 「Ya」.

His faith had died once before; demon Lord Rimuru was chosen as the new target of his faith.

Of course Rimuru doesn't know that.

Instead, Rimuru thought 『Sorry, I don't think you guys can win』 or anything like that, but Adalman and his group don't know that, because they're so excited.

Right now, they intended to bring victory to their new master.

ADVERTISMENTS

SCROLL TO RESUME CONTENT

Looking at each other's faces, and nodding, Adalman burned motivation, Albert was the same.

Then, they started thinking about the countermeasures against the stupid invaders that were coming. ?????????????????????????

The three people, who were from the empire, smoothly continued the arrests.

After parting ways with Damrada, and entering the Labyrinth City, they had enrolled in the guild there.

They had gathered some information before, but they felt that the fun content of the dungeon was mostly a heap of game elements.

However, this place was where Zhen Liu Xing's Sense Trap shone.

As for the monster strength he heard from the story, they didn't seem like a big deal.

The problem was that the depth of the dungeon was unknown.

To progress, capturing the labyrinth in one go should not be done, because there is a limit to the amount of food that can be carried.

But, very worried, so,

「Ah, it's okay. When you find the stairs, there is an entrance to an inn.

It's possible to live in that place. So, it doesn't matter even if we don't bring a lot of food.

Besides, we can sell things we don't need there, because there's a merchant in that place, you know? 」

So, very satisfying.

After all, it looks like there is an item called “Revival Bracelet” ……

「It looks like we can come back to life even if we die inside with this..」.

Mark and Zhen looked doubtful as Shinji explained what he heard.

How put? In this serious world, only this is where this world is full of jokes, it is very difficult to describe feelings.

Since they are also “Other” Owners, in this world having the ability will give you a pleasant treatment.

However, it's not to the degree that you can do what you like in this country.

Yuuki had done his best to fix the food problem, which also handled the circulation of goods in the Empire, but this place seemed to have surpassed that.

Takoyaki [7], Okonomiyaki [8] and Yakisoba [9]. Moreover, recently even Crepes [10] will be made soon.

Stalls crowded and lined side by side.

The toilet issue was also handled perfectly, and the comfort of the inn was also outstanding.

「Should I stay here? Tell me, are we not going back to the Empire? 」

“Hei!”

「No, sorry… ..It was a joke, just a joke. Don't be angry, Shinji 」

「I'm not angry, I wonder if will consider it seriously.」

「... I also want to stay here」

They looked at each other,

「No, no, no, absolutely no use.」

“Good? Even if we complain to Yuuki-san, the war will start …. 」

“Good.... what a pity..”.

They gave up, and nodded.

The city is alive, the food is good.

In addition to its convenience, it is as if the city is the center of culture and entertainment, the cradle of new pleasures, one after another.

The enjoyment they were so familiar with in the previous world, was a nostalgic thing for them, which the Empire was unknown to.

It was not that the Empire had no culture or entertainment, but it was not as free as this city.

Above all, the war is almost beginning.

For the three of them, who knew the Empire's military might well, it was useless to think that this country would have a chance to win against the Empire.

Want how else, they cut through such regrets, and challenged the labyrinth.

………

……

…

And now.

One week had passed after the labyrinth capture began.

The three members of Shinji's group were relaxing in the inn inside the labyrinth.

「How should I say ... don't we get a lot of money this week?

Although it is said that this inn only offers minimal facilities, but still at a moderate level.

Relatively, lodging costs are cheap, and unneeded equipment can be sold for money, aren't we saving a lot? 」

Mark was happy to ask a question.

Zhen raised his face as if he was a little interested.

Shinji took out a gold coin from the pouch like he answered the two.

「Yeah, we save a lot.

I heard that the record for the highest catching group here seems to be the 39th floor.

Looks like they're having trouble trying to catch the 40th floor.

The piece by piece weapons that started to appear with empty holes seemed to be selling for a very high price. 」

「I want to know what it is, that hole.

That kind of weapon even just appeared on the 40th floor, right?

Two or three of them appeared on the 50th floor, didn't they? 」

“Yes that's right.

In fact, the treasure chest above the 30th floor seemed to appear very rarely.

That weapon must be of good quality, maybe this is the reason? That's what I thought…

It seems like there is a secret.

Even when I asked the merchant, they did not tell Me, and only smiled. 」

「Hey, that's suspicious.

However, if you are talking about good quality, this one. Look at this!”

While saying so, Mark took out Minos Bardiche, and flaunted it.

It shines with a beautiful silver color.

The tallest gem made of Mithril.

It was an item obtained from a treasure chest guarded by a 50th floor guard, it was a Unique grade weapon.

「That's a unique grade weapon, you know? Even in the Empire, we won't be able to obtain it so easily.」

「Or rather, besides that Bardiche, there's an empty hole, right. Whatisit? 」

「Although so, it's a good weapon. Although the shape is strange.. 」.

「This is very surprising. We are really trying to catch these maze, we are earning, we are enjoying this too…

On the contrary, to be able to provide weapons like this freely, isn't this country more than we previously thought? Isn't this bad? 」

Mark and Zhen nodded at Shinji's words.

There are many more things to consider.

First, the 50th floor boss was strong.

Among the monsters that appeared around the Empire, there had never been a monster of that class born in these 100 years.

According to the disaster class ranking Yuuki had set, it was a “A” ranked monster.

As for this classification of monster classes, Empire had also adopted it as a common way to refer to monsters, as it was easy to understand with it.

There is also a reason, if the classification is different, it can cause problems, because this classification system is widely used by traders.

Besides of.

On the 40th floor, there was a snake that started attacking with dangerous breaths, it could be said it was a “A” rank monster.

It would not start attacking if the enemy was out of its breath range, although there was no exit in that narrow room.

He threw himself with his strong body muscles, it was a monster that could not be careless.

And, it was certain that the one they encountered on the 50th floor was an Over “A” ranked monster.

On the 30th floor, the movements of the men were paralyzed with chains and loads, but there the movement was out of control.

He was a dangerous boss, matching his status as a demon among the subordinates of the Demon King.

But, he was not an enemy that the three could not defeat, even though it was another story if one of them could win against the enemy alone …

“Definitely. I'm afraid that monster of that class is guarding the 50th floor.

The floor boss class seemed to lose against the guard class boss on every ten floors …

Didn't his strength only increase in one level from the 40th floor to the 50th floor? 」

Mark agrees with Shinji.

After passing through the 50th floor smoothly, they were now on the 55th floor.

But, they were not worried about the next boss on the 60th floor.

Ghost-type monsters had appeared since the 51st floor. They think that the boss must be a utipe ndead.

Fortunately, Mark had obtained Minos Bardiche, whereas for Shinji and Zhen, they did not have effective weapons against undead.

Even so they don't think that they will lose, although it makes sense that you shouldn't let your guard down.

「Oh well, even in the worst case, it seems like we will not die, so should we do our best without being careless?」

Mark and Zhen also nodded at Shinji's words.

Their destination was the bottom floor.

To determine the presence or absence of research facilities.

It was unknown how many floors there were up to the bottom, so they had to continue the capture without carelessness.

They retired that day after they finished confirming his plans once again.

And then, three days passed.

They finally arrived at the stairs of the 59th floor after they cleared the poisonous swamps, and the corrosion zone.

They went down that ladder ―― reached the 60th floor ―― floor view increased by one figure as soon as they went down.

They finally arrived in front of the boss room.

Actually they had arrived in front of the stairs yesterday around noon, but as a precaution they had already rested.

It was because they had just fought desperately against the three Death Kings, so this was an additional reason why they were hesitant to barge in.

They had the strongest class strength among ghost-type monsters, without a doubt it had strength above “A” rank.

When they came here, they felt that the strength of the enemy had increased tremendously.

That was why the three of them rested, to replenish their energy.

For the boss after this, they thought that they would not get into trouble as long as they dealt with it calmly.

The three nodded at each other, placed their hands on the door carefully, and then pushed it open nonstop.

?????????????????????????

The intense battle began.

It was really an intense battle, or at least, that was my impression.

While slumped, and watching the situation in the middle of a casual card game, I watched the boss fight seriously.

The result was a complete victory for the Ghost King Adalman.

It was a brilliant victory to the point that I was dumbfounded.

The analysis of the skills of the three people had been completed as well.

Shinjy. Approximate rating [EP: 64,000].

Unique Skills 『Master Medic [11]』

Attack Method: Virus Manipulation. Manipulation of Air Composition, Toxins.

He can heal naturally as well.

Mark… .. Estimated rating A [EP: 73,000]

Unique Expertise 『Throwers [12]』

He can throw anything. As long as it could be held, it was possible to throw anything, even monsters.

Since there was no attribute, it had penetrating damage. A troublesome ability.

Zhen… .. Estimated rating A [EP: 58,000]

Unique Expertise 『Observer』

Instinct Avoidance. Danger Sense. Feeling Trap. Monster Feelings. Presence taste.

Anyway, he's nimble. He is the natural enemy of the labyrinth.

I feel like the outline is llike that.

I will be happy to consider their abilities.

When you only see their power, you will think that they will win against Adalman.

Yet.

The man, Adalman, appears to have grown tremendously in the span of a year.

Or rather, the group of Death Lords without egos that did not have a major change in their original fighting strength, was in stark contrast to Adalman and Albert, who were proud of their current strength, he said, which cannot be compared to before.

Anyway, even I don't know it, either,

「Hehehe, you are surprised, right!

Actually, even though it's a secret…

The young man named Arnaud, or something similar, trained himself to replace Adalman! 」

So, Ramiris told me with a feeling 「Ramiris' surprise succeeded!」.

N? Arnaud is practicing? That's not Adalman's group, but Arnaud's?

As for the source of the discrepancy, the Holy Knights had actually passed through the 50th floor quickly, and seemed to have reached the 60th floor.

But, they were defeated by one knight there.

The Holy Knight, who was rumored to be the strongest several hundred years ago.

Albert, Adalman's trusted confidant, who became the Death Paladin.

「Has the quality of the Holy Knights lately decreased?」

While saying that, he tackled the sword technique he had when he was alive to the specs of his monsters, and overwhelmed Arnaud, or so he told me.

“Eeh, isn't the holy attribute his weakness?” That's what people think, I think the same.

The cause of his third defeat was related to Adalman's trump card.

“Holy - Demonic Inversion”

With the ability of this skill, the holy attribute was reversed into the demon attribute. The target was himself, so there was no need to worry about any resistance.

They thought it was a joke, something like a sacred skeleton, but Adalman and Albert had nullified the sacred attribute due to the Holy-Devil Reversal.

First of all, in addition to having resistance to physical attacks, they also had resistance to all attribute attacks.

So, against the two who had overcome the weakness of their holy attribute, it had become a hopeless situation.

With such a feeling, the three of them were quickly defeated, and had become particles of light.

By the way, there was also one more trump card, which summoned the Death Dragon (Hantom Dragon).

I was told, that after a desperate fight with Adalman's group, the Zombie Dragons became their companions, and seemed to have evolved.

「Tuanku (Rimuru)! Can you see it?

Our victory is for your sake !! 」

While looking at Adalman who shouted loudly,

(This, the power that protects the 60th floor is too overpowered.)

Is my honest mind.

After I calmed down, I started questioning Ramiris.

With such an attitude, he should have something else that he was hiding.

「Eh, that kind of thing ... I don't hide anything ...?」

Ramiris who was clearly acting suspicious, became agitated.

Obviously he was hiding something.

The moment I threatened him, from now on the cake will be banned, Ramiris started talking quickly like a machine gun.

First, Arnaud and his group had reached the 60th floor in the early stages, and seemed to have been defeated by Adalman.

And then for a few months, they seemed to have been training on the 60th floor under Albert's guidance.

Adalman acquired the skill “Holy-Demon Inversion” from Ruminas who sometimes came to the research institute to play.

Adalman helped in various studies, and got along with vampire researchers, and seems to have attracted the interest of the Ruminas.

He seems to have fixed “Inversion Day and Night” Ruminas and has got it.

Of course, as a token of gratitude, he also taught Ruminas this skill.

And Arnaud came in when Adalman acquired this skill.

Come to think of it, he was a man with a bad time, but since he could receive training from the strongest knight a few hundred years ago here, it could also be said that his luck was good.

With such a feeling, the 60th floor was transformed into a dangerous domain.

「Hey, hey ... Then, Arnaud and his group are where now?」

「Yah .. maybe because of the training, they easily defeated the boss on the 70th floor, and are now in a dead end on the 79th floor!」

「Umm... from floor 61 to floor 70 is the golem zone right..」.

“One stop. They are defeated easily.. 」.

The 70th floor guard is the perfect reproduction of the spirit protective giant I have created to guard the floor.

Since I had previously broken the one Ramiris made in the Spirit Labyrinth, I made it as an apology but …

「I don't need it, because I have Beretta!」

He said, so I spread it on the 70th floor.

There was no worry of being defeated, as it was a super heavyweight class with high defense, due to the Demon Steel.

It is a protective steel that is not affected by toxins, viruses, and air quality.

My confidence comes from my belief in the Demon Golem (Demon Lord Protector Colossus) [13], formerly a giant spirit protector….

「Veldora, who do you think is stronger, Adalman or Demon Golem?」

「Umm. Without a doubt, it was Adalman. 」

As expected…

In the past year, it seemed like he had greatly increased his strength.

No, I think he's been strong from the start, I might fail to realize it.

After all, for Death Paladin Albert, I have just noticed it for the first time now.

Therefore, I was surprised by Ramiris.

「Oke, then from today, the 51st to 60th floor will be diverted with the 61st floor to the 70」 floor

「Understanding! Just leave it to me! 」

So, the inside of the labyrinth is changed.

Then, there is one more thing that I have in mind.

「By the way, the boss of the 80th floor, is it strong?」

「Eh? What?”

「Well, isn't Arnaud as strong as Arc Demon?

Or rather, wasn't that person, Adalman, having become as powerful as the Demon Arc before I realized it!

Eh, huh? The shell of the Insect-type monster on the 80th floor was lined with Demon Steel, right?

After the golem with slow movement, arranged for there to be Insect-type monsters with high speed movement, this is …

Hey ... What happened in this place? 」

「Nah, You see ...」

I continued to suppress Ramiris, who was behaving suspiciously, with questions, and I understood the current situation.

Arnaud didn't seem to have hit a dead end with the 80th floor guards.

It was with the previous one, the floor boss from the 79th floor.

His progress seemed to be hindered by the Insect Queen, Apito.

With his super speed movements, and ultimate poison.

Arnaud could not touch him by reflex in the sword techniques he practiced.

What the fuck is this !! [14]

I feel like screaming.

“But but! Not only me, Shisou also trained, or similar, insects trained by him, you know! 」

「Yo, you fool! You, did you betray me!? 」

「Because, it's unfair if only Shisou has a face that says you're not related!」

「Gunununu.. [15]」.

It looks like Veldora did the same.

Perhaps it was a mistake I had entrusted the labyrinth to both of them.

after reaching an abnormal evolution, Insect Quee Apito seemed to belong to the ten strongest individuals in this labyrinth.

After evolving into a humanoid form, his insect-like appearance from before disappeared.

Getting a beautiful shape. It was the result of abnormal evolution.

And so, the strongest individual in this labyrinth…

There is a possibility that they have Executive-class combat power.

I don't want to know, but the various dragons seem to have evolved to the Dragon King class.

There were four Dragon Kings.

In addition, as,

The 90th floor guard, Kumara Nine Head Beast [16]

80th floor guard, Insect Kaiser Zegion [17]

Floor Boss of the 79th floor, Insect Queen Apito [18]

The 60th floor guard, Ghost King Adalman

The 60th floor pioneer, Death Paladin Albert

Also,

Guardians of the 50th floor, Gozurl and Mezurl.

Frankly, excluding Gozurl and Mezurl, there are still 9 people ―― more precisely, should 9 creatures? [19] ―― which have the same power.

The Dragon Monarch is Ramiris' subordinate, but the remaining 7 people seem to be my subordinates.

Although I think Gozurl and Mezurl are better as subordinates of Ramiris.

The two will do anything in gratitude for being Ramiris' subordinate, and want to continue serving under me.

Therefore, they can use “Resurrection” Bracelet many times.

Incidentally, without me noticing, they became emotionally attached to her.

In any case, I will give proper orders to these guards so that they do not raise their hands, except against those who attack the labyrinth.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for ordinary people to travel in the labyrinth.

It was rather pitiful, it had become a situation where you could not challenge the labyrinth without having some Demon Lords.

So, during the observation of the three invaders, I noticed the current unpredictable condition of the labyrinth.

Well, it's good to be strong, but I'd be restless if it developed beyond my imagination.

Maybe it's a bad habit of shy people.

I commended Adalman for his extraordinary deeds, and I told him that the floor was changed as a gift.

He was deeply moved, and said that this was a sign of his desire to be useful to Me in the future.

Well, I hope he does his best.

What I noted next was, the three intruders seemed to have returned without attacking again.

They might have some purpose, although they might become afraid of the overwhelming might of Death Paladin Albert.

By the way, the Death Dragon waiting behind, there was absolutely no need to move it.

It seemed like they thought it was useless even if they challenged it many times.

I feel like getting more information, even though it might not be a problem.

Anyway, it will eventually arrive.

With such a feeling, the curtain closed over the current unrest.
