Ch.54 "Dungeon Escape RTA From 250F" 4

[Oh, the screen suddenly changed]

[This feeling... it's Haru-chan!]

[Yeah……]

[Oh, the number of concurrent users has suddenly increased.]

[Is the stream slowly returning to normal?]

[...It's the Origins, but the device is still locked...]

[Haru-chan's full-power declaration...?]

[Curse-sama, it can hear that much?... Scary.]

[The Origins! Are you still alive...?]

[Yes, everyone except the older ones]

[Streaming suddenly resumed for some users, but we still don't know the conditions]

[Has there been any movement?]

[If I had to say, I guess it's like...]

[How should I express it?]

[This is difficult...]

[Yeah……]

[Haru-chan... has returned to normal, like she was before the Ruru-chan shock?]

[lol]

[Oh, so she's just diving like she normally did]

[Well, Haru-chan's normal isn't normal though]

[I know]

[I knew]

"……………………………………"

As monsters increase in level, they become harder to find and their movements harder to predict.

I don't know the details, but for now it seems like there are a lot of strong monsters around the 250th floor.

At the very least, I can't do something like I did before, when I boldly walked past them while prioritizing my search for Lili-san.

Taaaaan.

"...Let's move."

Even though the stream is quiet as usual, I'm still in a position where people are worried about me.

That much, I understand.

Because it's Curse-sama, something that is possessing Ruru-san.

I'm a little scared too.

What's more, this time I didn't have a wristband, a lifeline to lure civilians into the dungeon and tell them, "Your life will be saved if something happens!"

Even I understand this situation.

So I just mumble and tell them briefly what I'm doing.

I don't look at the screen anyway, and I have float windows turned off.

It's a hassle, but if I get distracted by the comments - in this situation, it could be really dangerous.

[Haru-chan's low voice...]

[I can hear a mumbling voice...]

[It penetrates into my brain...]

[Wow, gross]

[You're terrible]

[lol]

[Nice shot... Is it?]

[I wonder]

[I can't confirm it, but I have the feeling that it probably hit]

[It's a one-shot, so there's no doubt about it]

[But it's a different weapon than usual, right?]

[Oh, I remember her complaining that it was hard to use.]

[It should be one of the best weapons sold in stores...]

[To begin with, making her own weapons…Haru-chan, you even have a rare skill…]

I moved slowly across the rocks, trying to think of the route the monster would take in response to the gunshot I had just fired.

Carrying a rifle that was heavier and larger than usual, I secured a line of fire and a route of retreat.

Now that I no longer have a lifeline, I must be careful to move in a way that will not kill me even if I am caught off guard.

The premise is that there are monsters with high detection skills - beings superior to me.

ー It's going to be okay.

Even when I was a beginner, before I had honed my concealment skills and on a man's body, I'm still okay.

Besides, I can just be careful, like I've been in this body for a while now.

[These are smooth sniper movements...]

[No wasted movement whatsoever]

[Feels like a veteran warrior]

[While hiding properly, like in an FPS...]

[I feel like she's finally doing something a long-distance job that I know would do.]

[Isn't it too late to realize that?]

[Because she can activate a trap, self-destruct while falling, and still be unharmed, or do that dozens of times, or dive-bomb. That's not the scout I know]

[Don't worry, almost everyone here agree with that.]

[Everyone except Haru-chan would agree to that, so don't worry.]

[lol]

[But it was great. It was taken manually so the image quality is rough and it's hard to see in the dark, but one of the Origins relayed it to us]

[Really, it's fine to just record the screen manually.]

[It would have been better if it hadn't been a direct shot]

[I'm telling you! The whole device is locked!!!]

[Calm down, Origin. Sorry.]

[But I'm happy to have the honor of streaming Haru-chan's live stream.]

[What happened suddenly?]

[Your way of speaking is a bit off]

[Could that be... the Origin grandpa..?]

[Sorry, my feelings for Haru-chan just overflowed. I tried to get used to the modern, trendy slang of young people.]

[lol]

[lol]

【Oh, you're doing your best, grandpa...】

[It's amazing that it doesn't feel strange at all]

[He's supporting Haru-chan, that's what he'd do]

[lol]

[But... you're right, it's not going to be like when she first came down.]

[Maybe it's just a mistake that she fell?]

[She was accelerating as much as she could]

[Now that I think about it...]

[That was a steep dive after all... Right, she was exploding as well...]

[lol]

Taaaaan.

"...60 bullets remaining. Area clear."

[As usual, I can't see anything, but I can tell something amazing is going on]

[Plus, this time Haru-chan's own life is at stake, so the level of seriousness is different.]

[If this is your first time seeing this, you might mistake this for a normal walkthrough stream]

[And it will probably be crushed before too long.]

[Yeah, that's for sure]

[lol]

[Lol, there's a lot of negative trust]

Guns can fire accurately over long distances, but they have one ultimate drawback: they are loud.

And then there are the bullets...they don't miss that often, and it's usually one bullet per enemy, so it's not that bad, but they are expensive.

Also, above all, it's heavy and big, making it difficult to handle.

Well, it probably wouldn't be that bad with an ordinary close-range pistol or a medium-range one, but I specialize in long-range sniping...

[Whoa, what is that monster?]

[This monster has a different dignity than the ones I know...]

[Ah, so even the monsters are different at the 250th floor, which is almost the highest rank...]

[But... normally it would take a party of several advanced users 10 minutes to defeat one of those, right...?]

[Moreover, usually the tank role needs treatment etc.]

[That's right, there's no point in imitating Haru-chan]

[How can Haru-chan defeat such monster with just one hit...?]

[Because she can see the core that other people can't see]

[Ah, was this girl an angel who descended to earth?]

[She descended (dived)]

[Ahh... I bet she found some good prey and just accelerated and fell from the deployment...]

[How did you come up with that?]

Taaaaan, taaaaan.

I killed the two that had come around the bend in the hallway after hearing the gunshot earlier.

…As expected, monsters at this depth move very quickly.

If you're not careful, you'll miss it or be slow to react to their approach.

I've only been fighting in safe zones lately...I guess it's important to dive in like this every now and then and test my skills.

[If I come across something like this, I'll use the wristband immediately]

[Even if youre in a fully prepared party, if you can't escape, then that's the right answer.]

[※If the party's scout's detection skill is not strong enough, they will be ambushed and will only notice after taking damage]

[That's true]

[That's why it's important to choose a dungeon that matches your level.]

[Her movements are very agile and he can predict their movements, and she has a lot of killing techniques that we've never seen before.]

[There is nothing of that nature in this stream]

[Because she'll defeat them before that happens.]

"Turn the next corner and you'll see the stairs leading up."

['Kay]

[Live commentary tskr]

[Haru-chan is... seriously commenting on this situation...!?]

[Even if she was a bit of a strange little girl, if her life was on the line... well...]

[It's amazing that you can understand the map without looking]

[This is practically cheating at this point.]

[The top players usually have some kind of sharp skill, but]

[There's nothing like this, obviously.]

[Don't say too much, the top players will cry]

[It's fine, it's fine, I've already cried and left my party]

[lol]

[Eh……]

[Poor thing]

[Ahh, another victim of Haru-chan is here...]

Little by little, I steadily cleared one area, one floor at a time.

This way, I'll almost certainly not even be at risk of danger.

...But, moving like this is going to take a lot of time.

Maybe because I said I'd try my best earlier, the Curse-sama doesn't seem to be chasing me.

So, at this pace... It's satisfied with me just jogging and sniping from behind rocks?

But...

"I have to get to Ruru-san's place quickly..."

It really seems like that girl is depressed.

I'd feel the same if the positions were reversed, with someone nearly dying because of my curse.

If I hug and comfort her somehow soon, she'll probably come rushing into the bath again.

Puberty is difficult.

[Mikazuki Emi: "Thank you everyone. I didn't show you the screen, but Ruru has calmed down a little after hearing what she just said."]

[Emi-chan]

[Emi-chan and the others are almost at the 50th floor]

[That's actually pretty fast]

[Plus, Ruru-chan hasn't had any falls or bad luck]

[Ruru-chan is so strong when she can fight normally...]

[In other words, after all...]

[Oops, read the management comment]

[No one will take responsibility if something gets involved]

[It's scary]

[But Haru-chan hasn't seen any reports like that either...]

[It's probably okay because it's Haru-chan, but mental health is important at times like this, so I don't think we need any extra information.]

[It seems dangerous to know too much]

[Haru-chan's strength is being able to complete everything on her own]

[She's a self-sufficient little girl, so in situations like this, going solo is the best.]

[As long as she's solo, she can maximize the use of her specs.]

[In other words, she's a loner]

[Even though she's a loner, she's still an active loner]

[What is an active loner?]

[She's more suited to go solo in many ways]

[A solitary angel.]

[A solitary loner...]

[I see]

[lol]

Turn down the hallway and there's a staircase leading up.

...For now, it seems there aren't any special traps.

There's no need to rush.

So Curse-sama, it just want to see me climb out of this.

Somehow, I feel that way.

"………………………………"

ー"I feel like you're having fun?"

Although I don't really understand it, that's the image I have.

[The next floor is the 248th floor... it's a long way to go]

[Normally, it takes days just to go down that low.]

[So this RTA will take several days?]

[It will definitely take time]

[And the monsters are incredibly strong]

[And the monsters in the beginning are more likely to be in the later stages]

[Ah, so that's because she started from below...]

[On the other hand, as she goes up the floors, it will become an easier game for Haru-chan.]

[According to the official records I just saw, the fastest people got to 200th floor is 8 days and 11 hours.]

[In other words, even if she just go up 200 floors from here]

[No, once the medical team and RuruEmi catch up , she can use the spare wristband]

[So if she get to the 80th floor, will she be able to escape from there?]

[The further the rescue team can get below that, the easier it will be for Haru-chan.]

[So about half that, about three days? ...It'll be an endurance battle.]

[And if Cur---sama will forgive her.]

[Haru-chan herself has made it to the 80th floor on her own, so I hope it's OK.]

[On her own...]

[Made it...?]

[Whether or not using a trap like a game bug is OK or not is...]

[lol]

[L-look, at worst, if it's Haru-chan, she should be able to easily handle up to 80 floors while resting...]

[I'm going to take some paid leave]

[It's okay to be absent without permission, right?]

[Don't be hasty, you can watch it at work or school!]

[For Haru-chan, I don't mind spending gigabytes of my internet quota]

[Use public Wi-Fi for times like these]

[Eh……]

I climb the stone steps.

...Usually I just go down, but when I have to go up I suddenly feel tired.

You see, this body is really physically weaker than when I was a man.

That is, right now I can barely use the magical power that I have to make up for it.

"... Fuu, fuu."

[●REC]

[Breathing heavily...]

[A little tired...?]

[That's right, each step of the dungeon stairs is high...]

[This is tough for a little girl]

[After all, her estimated height is 120cm...]

Today I was tired from shopping and tired from being a dress-up dolls, but I wasn't too tired until I snuck out to go shopping.

However, since I dived I've been doing a lot of unusual actions so I'm pretty tired.

"I'd like to take a quick nap, but... there's no guarantee that Curse-sama won't get angry if I sleep here, so I have to go higher."

For now it seems to be an RTA, so it looks like I'll have to push myself to my limits before I can take a rest.

Yeah, if I proceed normally and seriously it probably won't get in the way, but if I just wander around it seems like more will come my way.

[It's still noon, Haru-chan!?]

[It's snack time, you'd normally be taking a nap]

[After all, she's just a little girl... she's just cute]

[But when it comes to dungeon diving, isn't that pretty deadly?]

[Because she's usually staying still]

[And she just kept falling dynamically earlier]

[Are you resting properly?]

[She usually climb up to a higher place and rest there, but...]

I rubbed my eyelids roughly and searched around in my bag.

...Alcohol is good at times like these.

"...Puhee."

[●REC]

[lol]

[Cute]

[Hydration is important, isn't it?]

[Haru-chan is relaxed even at times like this]

[Well, it seems to be okay for now]

[Actually, the monster was on screen just now.]

[Oh, it's because of a new product that Haru-chan is happy for]

[But it was still an unusually distant monster.]

[If it's that far away, it's just a deflection shot.]

[That would be perfect for headshotting something that appears at the end of a hallway.]

Ah, this is really good.

What?

Being able to drink as much alcohol as you want even in the dungeon... well, I guess I'll just drink to get some attention.

"I've finished rehydrating, so let's continue."

[Okaay~]

[Okaay~]

[The IQ of listeners is dropping again]

"By the way, right after I leave here, there will be a lot of monsters and the screen will shake. Also, if it's dangerous, I will return to the lower level, but please don't worry."

[Yes?]

[Huh?]

[lol]

[Another monster house on the first step?]

[W-well, this is coming up from the bottom, so normally it wouldn't be the first step...?]

[But this situation is made by the Cur-- oops, it's only for Haru-chan's sake, right?]

[Yeah, it's the same as last time...]

[lol]

[Haru-chan in hard mode]

[But Haru-chan remains calm]

[Ehhh...]

[Whoaaaa it's a Monter house]

[Don't worry, it's Haru-chan, so you can rest easy.]

[That's right]

[Ahh... the monsters are dancing]

[Blood splatters]

[Death throes]

[They can't even get close[

[In other words?]

[Poor Monster-shan]

[lol]

[Not good, the viewers are all turning into little girls]
