Ch.111 The Last Night, And to The 500th Floor

"The flower capital of the gourmet country... Ah, that's right."

While I was thinking about the issue of status, I suddenly found myself with a promise to go on a trip abroad.

While we're excited about the planning, Ruru-san raises her voice.

"There are a lot of comments about 'outside'... do you understand, Emi-chan?"

"No... but yeah there's a lot."

[This is bad]

[Just leave it to us]

[Leave it to someone]

[Relying on others?]

[Because I'm not good at it]

[lol]

[...Yes, the media! There are so many people wanting to take pictures of Haru-chan at the entrance of the dungeon after two weeks of clearing it, it's going to be a pain!]

[That's right, the media and curious onlookers!]

【That's it!】

[Yes, it's gonna be a pain!]

[There are a lot of them, right? Once they caught them, they'll be so enthusiastic that they won't let Haru-chan and the others go, right?]

"...Once we conquer this dungeon, it seems like the first thing we'll have trouble with is returning."

"Oh, you're right. There are a lot of media people up there."

"Hmm."

[That was dangerous]

[Safe]

From what I've heard, No Name-san caused a lot of trouble and the streaming site went down... so of course there are a lot of cameras pointed in our direction.

I myself have the skill to conceal myself, so if necessary I could completely ignore them, but that's not the case for Ruru-san and the others.

It must be hard for Emi-san, and it must also be hard for Lili, who is a foreigner, being surrounded by people.

I want to do something, but I don't think it's possible.

"No Name-san?"

[Eek]

[Haru-chan, stop with this sudden summoning ritual!]

[Stop it, Haru-chan! Our hearts will stop!]

[Actually, Haru-chan hasn't even looked at the comments at all even after getting this far]

[There's no hesitation]

[After that, a staff member who was on duty at the office sorted through the comments all by himself...]

[Poor staff-san]

[Well, RuruEmi are reading the chat in her stead...]

【What】

[Your reply has arrived, Haru-chan]

[Please say that to RuruEmi]

"...Or so they said, do you have anything to say, Haru?"

"I mean, Emi-san and the others will read it for me."

"Haru-chan hasn't changed at all... so?"

"Ah, that's right."

I tried to talk to No Name-san, but...wait, No Name-san, which camera are you watching from?

Is it this one...or this one?

I look into each of the cameras floating around me, but something is different.

Hmm, which one is it... Ah, looks like this one.

[So cute!]

[Haru-chan is peering into each one!!]

[Please stop surprising me with this serious crush... I'm happy, but please stop...]

[Oh, let me just get some high blood pressure medicine...]

[lol]

[I'm relieved to see Haru-chan being her usual self]

The camera on top of my head.

I talk to it, since it has been taking care of me in many ways.

"No Name-san. Once we escape, can you protect us, please?"

From the media, for example.

You see, I heard the stuff they write aren't always true, and some of them also stalk their target.

【Promise】

"You got its promise"

"is that so"

I guess it reacted because I made eye contact with some of the cameras floating around nearby.

【Promise promise promise promise】

[lol]

[No Name-chan, calm down!!]

[No Name-chan seems very happy to be spoken to by Haru-chan]

[I understand how you feel]

[Certainly... Haru-chan rarely faces the camera and talks to us...]

No Name-san is a bit mischievous, but it wouldn't do anything really bad.

Ah, but then Ruru-san's parents... Now I'm second guessing myself.

This time too, it just called me out unilaterally... I still don't really understand No Name-san.

◇◆◇

Then I slept soundly until the next day.

We have been making great progress.

...Pew pew pew pew.

"Mm, running out of gas."

The chair is losing altitude.

"...Now that you mention it, you're right...If it was a normal vehicle, they would slow down as the battery would run out..."

"Thank goodness... I'm glad this didn't happen while we were descending the big hole...!!"

[lol]

[I had forgotten about it because of the outstanding stability, but yea]

[But I wish they had moved a little further]

[They said they would operate without supplies, but I don't think they expected this level of abuse.]

[But for the gas to run out right before the final boss.]

[Haru-chan is delicious every time]

[A little girl who is good for photography no matter where you shoot]

I've been thinking about this chair-like thing since this morning, "It doesn't seem to be going very fast anymore."

Perhaps we had overworked it, as it landed slowly and stopped moving.

"Thank you for everything so far."

The chair... let's just call it that... landed with a thud and turned around, looking somewhat worn out.

[So kind]

[Haru-chan is a good girl]

"The only way I can smell Haru-sama's hair without being glared at by Ruru-sama is...!"

"Lili-chan..."

[lol]

[Lili-chan looks devastated right next to the touching scene]

[Isn't Lili-chan so funny?]

[Even Ruru-chan is shocked, isn't she?]

[Coming here has brought out a lot of personality]

[Yeah……!]

[Emi-chan → interested in little girls]

[Lili-chan → sniffer]

[Ruru-chan → YanYan] (TL: as in, Yan in Yandere)

[Haru-chan → Haru-chan]

[Kushima-saan!]

[Kushima-saan! Come back!]

[Kushima-saan is the only one who can control these 4...]

[Kushima-saan has become our only hope lol]

499th floor.

The last set of stairs are right in front of us.

"...Isn't this No Name-san's fault?"

【Wrong】

【Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong】

[No Name-chan is suddenly met with a blank stare]

[No Name-chan, pull yourself together!]

[This is just a fatal wound, calm down!]

[Emi-chan, Ruru-chan! Tell her she's wrong!]

[Otherwise, No Name-chan will break!]

"Oh, it seems that's not the case. The battery indicator was there."

"Eh?"

"Look, here. Over here on the chair."

I turned the surprisingly light chair over.

There is a panel right on the opposite side of where my butt rests.

"...Why on the back?"

"Who knows?"

Do I have to look under my butt to see it every time?

Ah, but it's true that when Ruru-san transformed it, it went under.

...The person who made this...is he also a pervert?

[Ehh...]

[What is this chair-like thing...?]

[I don't understand]

[I wonder what kind of design concept went into making this...]

[Well, at least they've been able to ride it safely up until now...]

I don't really understand, but it was definitely helpful.

Thank you, chair-like thing.

The official name is... I can't read it, so never mind.

[Oh, the dirty bag]

[She's putting the chair-like thing inside the dirty bag.]

[Amazing... No matter how you look at it, it shouldn't have gone in, but it just did...]

[Isn't it too late for that?]

[I know this is late, but... dungeon drops are amazing.]

It feels like it's been a long time since I've walked... No, it really has been a long time.

How many days... two weeks?

I haven't walked for a long period of time.

That said, the staircase is right in front of us, and below it is the final boss floor.

"...It's finally here."

"So it is"

I quickly checked my equipment.

I know that if I keep everything in my dirty bag, I won't be able to get it out in an emergency, as I can only take the things I need one at a time.

"Everyone, please tell me what you guys need."

"Ah, then I'll have a magic potion..."

"Oh, me me! I want a long sword!"

"... Some hydration"

I did as I was told and took out each item one by one from the bag.

...I can kind of tell what's in there and I can take them out kind of...but the downside is that I can only take them out one at a time.

So, preparing for camping every night can be quite a hassle.

Well, it's much better than carrying them all and being slowed down by them, so using my bag is way better.

[Wow... it's like they're going to conquer a dungeon...]

[What on earth have you seen and heard up until now?]

[Eh?]

[lol]

[Isn't that too harsh?]

[But you see! No matter how you look at it, what they've done so far hasn't been the normal dungeon diving strategy!! you Idiot!!]

[What is this?]

[Nnyapi!!]

[lol]

[The angry reply lol]

[Poor thing... Haru-chan has ruined someone's emotions...]

[But Haru-chan is amazing... She's a scout, sniper, main attacker, and porter.]

[What kind of perfect superhuman is that?]

[It's Haru-chan]

[Come to think of it, you're right]

[Don't worry, she's taking it easy and sleepy most of the time so she has plenty energy to spare...]

[But when you line them up, it's amazing...]

[Isn't it enough to just have Haru-chan?]

[The thing is, Haru-chan's battery runs out so quickly]

[This really feels like Haru-chan and her friends.]

[The key to victory is to get Haru-chan home safely...]

"Ah, there are a lot of huge monsters on the 500th floor so please be careful."

"Eh?"

[Eh?]

[Bad news: No Name-chan is serious]

[Maybe it wanted to see the decisive battle...]

[I can feel its strong desire to help Haru-chan show her true potential]

[What is this...?]
