Ch.57 "Dungeon Escape RTA From 250F" 7

"Zzz~~… Zzz~~…"

"...Haru-chan. It's Haru-chan, right?"

"Yes, that's right. ...Ah, the homemade escape device she used to save Ruru...come to think of it, we brought it when we moved...Yes, that's right. It's filled with gunpowder and other things that would cause a catastrophe if they exploded..."

[Sleeping Haru-chan]

[●REC]

[Cute]

[Cute]

[But]

[How did this happen?]

[lol]

◇

80th floor.

They tried to search for Haru, but no matter how hard they looked, they couldn't find the stairs leading down.

Since there was nothing they could do, the only option was to use the hole that Haru and theother persin had fallen through to get down.

Mikazuki Emi, Fukaya Ruru, and the late-arriving Kushima Chiho with the rest of medical team, gathered together and came to that conclusion.

"But how do we get down from here?"

"I wouldn't mind if it was just for one or two floors, but I don't think I've brought any rope that could reach from here to the bottom of the dungeon."

"In the first place, is there a rope that is long enough to get from 80th to 250th floor?"

"In the first place, I don't even know if we can get through to the floors one or two below."

"I can't see any stairs anywhere, and even with a strong attack the floor doesn't seem to break."

"Isn't it impossible unless we bring in heavy machinery?"

"Heavy machinery doesn't belong in the dungeon."

"How on earth did Haru-san manage to get down safely while holding on to a rock with one hand and holding on to a girl older than her with the other? Ah, but that doesn't really matter because it's Haru-san."

"Because it's Haru-chan."

"It's Haru-san after all."

And so the discussion went around in circles.

At that moment, a sound resounded from below - like the sound of a jet.

"...Haru-chan?"

The first to react was Ruru, who had heard it up close a while ago.

"...Ruru. Right now, Chiho - ahem, the medical team is in the middle of counseling..."

[Bad news]

[Bad news has arrived]

[Oh, in a good way.]

[What do you mean bad news in a good way?]

[Can't you just say good news?]

[Yeah, I can't say that]

[I can't say it...]

[Has Haru-chan done something again?]

[It's a temporary relief]

[Not everyone can watch Haru-chan's stream yet.]

[So, what happened? Did Haru-chan do something again?]

[It's already decided lol]

[Because it's Haru-chan?]

[It's Haru-chan after all...]

[After all, she's the natural explosive angel Haru-chan...]

"Oh... it's from a listener. Please wait a moment, Ruru."

"……………………………………"

Emi leaves Ruru, who is still acting strangely, and turns her attention to the sudden change in speed and nature of the comment.

"It's okay. Here's something warm for now."

Kushima Chiho had been secretly looking after Ruru the whole time, positioning herself in a place that couldn't be seen by the camera.

'ーI wonder if I need to make my calming magic stronger.'

She was feeling nervous about the mental breakdown in the dungeon, and at that moment she spoke to her coworker to get her to drink some water.

"...It's Haru-chan."

Muttering to herself, Ruru staggered towards a huge hole in the ground.

[Hey, Ruru-chan?!]

[Emi-chan, Ruru-chan! Ruru-chan is doing something dangerous!]

"Eh? -- Ruru!"

Emi tried to run to her, who was already close to the edge of the hole, but just as she reached out her hand...she could definitely feel "that sound" getting closer.

"...An airplane...No, this is inside a dungeon..."

[Correct]

[Almost correct]

[But it's a bit of a strange mechanism]

[Ah, because she's an angel, she can really fly...]

[Angels fly in a very scientific way]

[Haru-chan often makes it clear that she exists in the real world.]

The comment was so fast she couldn't comprehend the situation and for a moment she stopped dead in her tracks.

Just as Ruru's toes reached the edge.

"...Fua...Ruru-san."

"Haru-chan...?"

"……Eh!?"

"Haru-san?!"

[lol]

[Sad news: Haru-chan unexpectedly survives on her own]

[On her own (with jet-like thing)]

[No, they're angel wings]

[I see, so that's what angel wings look like...]

[Angel's wings (A big backpack like a school bag, with some kind of cylinder on the bottom blowing flames]

The backpack rocket that Ruru, Emi, and Chiho saw in "his" room.

A rechargeable flying unit handmade by Haru.

When they were moving, the movers said, "This is clearly an explosive, please do something about it."

...Kushima quickly decided to shift the focus of the camera, but still, on the streaming screen――

[Haru-chan is flying!]

[Flying with a 'shugogogogo' sound...]

[I couldn't see it on Haru-chan's screen though]

[Hey, it's blurry!!!]

[Long blonde hair, a shirt with sleeves like the one shown on the stream, and a long skirt...]

[Even though it looks like a Western-style JS girl]

[She's carrying something big on her back...]

[What is this... (joy)]

[Is that a cause for joy?]

[lol]

Angel wings - that's not it, she emerged from a hole and, just as their eyes met, she hovered for a short while.

With a faint smile of relief on her face, Haru fell towards Ruru.

◇

"Zzz... Zzz... Mmu..."

"...And then, she used up all her mana and fell asleep."

"...I'm really glad."

"Yes. If she was to run out of mana midway, or conversely, if she was to continue vigorously all the way to the ceiling of this floor――then she would..."

[Sleeping Haru-chan]

[She was yawning a lot towards the end]

[She seemed in a bad mood]

[That was a sleepy voice.]

[That's what happens when kids are sleepy]

[Children have full energy until the moment they fall asleep.]

[Saying stupid and fool]

[It was cute]

[I wanted her to be my daughter]

[I wanted her as my grandchild]

[I wanted to be friends]

[I wanted her to be my little sister]

[I wanted to adopt]

[To be my little brother!]

[The audience here is so large]

Haru was breathing softly in her sleep.

She popped out of the hole and made eye contact with Ruru for a moment - perhaps because she felt relieved, but then the little girl's strength ran out.

"...Haru-san must be pretty tired, she might not be waking up for a while. This dungeon is dangerous, so why don't we evacuate using our wristbands?"

"That's right, Chiho -- excuse me, medical staff."

The people she glanced at activated their wristbands one by one and were transported back to the ground.

"Since we don't know what's going to happen, it's best not to linger. After all, the 'lowest floor' of this dungeon has been hollowed out."

"...Yeah, that's true."

When you are completely relaxed, you feel heavy.

'ーBut while Haru-chan is still so light-hearted, it's still all my fault.'

As Ruru looked at her sleeping face, clinging to her, she felt guilty about how carefree she was.

Haru was completely asleep.

The dangerous thing she was carrying was removed because it looked like it was out of gas - and now she was really light.

Physical measurements show that her build is average for a 6-year-old.

A little girl.

'ーBut the reason Haru-chan was in so much danger today was all, ...'

"Ruru"

"...No, I'm okay."

The wristband was gently handed over to her.

She puts it on Haru's wrist.

"...Well then, viewers. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience today."

"I'm sorry."

Before turning the stream off, Emi and Ruru are bowing to the camera

[Oh, thank goodness]

[Thank you for your help]

[But I never imagined she would make such an acrobatic escape.]

[As expected of Haru-chan]

[lol]

[But when she saw Ruru-chan she jumped on her and fell asleep right there... how precious]

[Teetee]

[The RuruHaru Duo...]

[Good……]

[No matter what, Haru-chan is the one who is most attached to Ruru-chan]

[She was so sleepy that as she escaped, and when she saw Ruru-chan first, she felt relieved as she hugged her and fell asleep...]

[Oh my, that's too precious]

[I was in tears]

[I had a nosebleed]

[That's what a yuri is, you know.]

[New doors have been opened for hundreds of thousands of people]

'--The atmosphere of the comments was clearly one of relief, I'm glad.'

"Ruru"

"Yeah. Haru-chan should go first."

Ruru operates Haru's wristband.

"……………………………………"

"……………………………………"

They wonder if the "Curse-sama'' will do something again.

They had speculated that this was the case, but after a moment, Haru was teleported away and disappeared.

"How is the ground team doing? ... I'm glad."

"Haru-chan... Is she safe?"

"Yeah, looks like she has reached the ground. We should go too, right?"

[Even No Name-sama wouldn't lay hands on her at this point.]

[Well, there were some acrobatic, but she managed to escape properly.]

[Is it "proper" to escape by jetting through a hole in the ceiling...?]

[By Haru-chan's standards, right?]

[Yeah, that's right, it's normal by Haru-chan's standards]

[No Name-sama, who is obsessed with Haru-chan, would be more than happy if it were to see it]

[No doubt about it]

[Yeah……!]

[I bet it's overjoyed that she managed to beat the RTA like that]

[That's right, it's a strategy that no one other than Haru-chan could pull off!]

[lol]

“I’m sorry, but we're going to the hospital with Haru-saー Haru right away to get her checked out just to be sure, so we’ll have to end the stream here.”

['Kay]

[Good luck, Emi Okaa-san]

[Um, while you're at it, check Ruru-chaーRuru-san too...]

[Don't add "san", Ruru-chan is Ruru-chan]

[Even with that scary monologue the entire stream, and you can still say that, that's impressive]

[There are a lot of Ruru-chan fans too]

[What percentage of them are RuruHaru fans?]

[Huh? 90%]

[So almost everyone lol]

--Snap.

The stream is turned off.

"...Apart from the clothes, Haru-san's body didn't even have a scratch. We were watching the livestream, so there was no need to worry about any injuries."

"In that case, she must have fainted after using up her mana and energy to the limit."

"You can relax, but it's not good for her body to feel so unconscious. ...Well, we'll evacuate as well. The medical team on the ground is waiting...see you upstairs."

Following Kushima's orders - coming from her, who had achieved an unprecedented promotion at the behest of the higher-ups - the remaining personnel were evacuated one by one.

Even though Haru had retreated from the dungeon, nothing had happened.

But that's just for now - it's best to hurry.

"Let's go, Ruru."

"…… Okay"

Then the last two people also activated their wristbands.

They're safely transported to the ground in just a few seconds.

ーThe screen where the agency had supposedly ended the stream.

Of course, the listeners were unable to comment, "I'm glad, I'm glad." And left

However, the stream did not end and the screen remained black.

The viewers who stayed behind to share their thoughts - "the majority on the other side of the screen" - looked on in surprise as a series of blank comments appeared.

ー Then.
