They did not kno many days have passed since they round Recently, Yue was displaying aa little spoiled
Whenever they were resting at base, she would especially get glued to hi on his arm while they slept near each other Yue would embrace him from the back when he sat down When she fed on his blood, she would cuddle him from the front She would stay there even after she was done feeding With a content expression, she would rub her face on his chest

"Hht be soeon is believed to have 100 floors…just in case"
When Hajiht there was a possibility that the place they were in was no longer the usual "Orcus Dungeon" He had the sa from what he sensed as he traversed this level, this was certainly a basement a way off froic, weapons, and trans these skills, Hajime had confidence in himself He wouldn’t be taken down easily However, this place was scary enough to kill him even with his abilities

When Hajime and Yue finished all their preparations, they went to the stair that led thee space supported by a vast number of pillars Each of the pillars where 5ns and vine patterns engraved onto theement of each row of pillars was very uniform and had the Unlike the usual rough ground in the dungeon, this place had beautiful flat ground The rooave off a solemn atmosphere
They stepped into the room while they admired it All the pillars started to shine faintly then This got theain their caution Pillars lit up sequentially towards the back of the rooilant for a while, but they decided to advance because nothing happened They advanced whilefull use of their senses and perception skills After they progressed 200 e door A double door 10 raved onto it Particularly, soon syste By any chance…"
"Abode of Traitors?"
He had a feeling this was the roo his, while there was no reaction fro to be bad ahead Yue seemed to feel it too because there eat on her forehead
"Isn’t this the great? We finally reached our goal"
Hajiards his instinct and puts his bold s, no matter as behind there
"…Hn!"
Yue stares at the door with an expression that told him she was prepared for it
The two finally walked past the last pillars and advanced towards the door
At that ic formation about 30 ht enized this ered because of the trap that day and caused hiic foric forer than that, and it was a lot more complex and detailed
"Hey hey, what’s with this size? Is it really the last boss?"
"…It’s fine…We won’t lose…"
As expected, Hajihtly with a determined expression on her face
Hajiic formation Seems like they wouldn’t be able to advance if they didn’t defeat the ic formation
The formation shined more and more till it finally burst Hajiht froht disappeared, it was there…
A s, and dark red eyes Comparably to the Hydra of the myths
""""""Kuruuaan!""""""
Those six pair of eyes stared at Haji judgement upon the intruders who didn’t know their place A fierce thirst for blood, that would have stopped an ordinaryat Hajime
One of the heads with a red crest on it opened its mouth as flames ee wall
Hajiht and left to start their counterattack Hajime fires Donner at the red head The bullet blew off the red head
When Hajime pumped his fist in the air at his victory, one head with a white pattern shouted White light wrapped around the red head and restored it fully, like time had been reversed The white head seeic
Yue had launched an ice shard at a green head and blew it away However, the result was the same as the red one when the white head casted its spell
Hajih the "Telepathic Communication", while he tsked
("Yue! Aim for that white head! Or it’s endless!"
("Okay!")
The head with a blue pattern shot out a gravel of ice fro for the white head while they avoided the shot
Bang!
""Scarlet Spear"!"
A flash of light and a blazing spear shot towards the white head However, the moment when it was about to hit, the yellow head quickly went into the line of fire and bloated The head shined yellow and took both of the attacks head on After the attack settled, there was a flawless yellow head glaring at the head, a nice balance"
Hajirenade over the heads At the same time, he fired Donner at the White Head with full power Yue helped by firing off her "Scarlet Spear" in rapid succession Her "Azure Sky" may have surpassed the yellow head and hit the white head, but she would be easy prey after using such a strong spell that would exhaust her She may be able to recover fast if she drank blood, but the heads were probably not going to allow the chance Unless the number of heads could be halved, she couldn’t use her best spells
The yellow head was taking all their attacks But soon it was showing signs of dae in its previously flawless head
"Kuruan!"
Its white head heals the yellow head at once The head performed its healer role perfectly However, at that renade exploded over the white head Tar at 3000 degree centigrade was scattered around When it poured onto the white head, it screae telepathically They planned for a simultaneous attack Before they could execute, a scream sounded Yue’s scream
"Noooo!!"
"!? Yue!"
He quickly tried to rush over to her, but was intercepted by wind blades and fireballs fired by the green head and red head respectively Yue was still screa on with his teeth clenched The black head, he realized it had done nothing this whole ti)
Hajied around with "Flicker" and "Air Walk" With the sound of firear at Yue was bloay Yue collapsed at the same time He could see that her face was pale even fro mouth and stretched its head towards Yue to s her
"Like I’ll let you!!"
Hajied in the storm of wind blades and fireballs as he used his "Flicker" A potentially fatal attack was avoided with the use of Donner and "Air Claws" At the last moment, Hajime arrived between the blue head and Yue But there was no tiered "Vajra" Haji That is why he stood before Yue to block that attack The ic covered his body at the sa a lol, the blue head sed Hajime whole When it tried to close its jaws, Hajis to prevent it froainst the head’s upper jaw and pulled the trigger
The blue head erupted from the blast and bits of its brain flew off Hajime used his "Grand Kick" on the renade at the Hydra
"Sonic Grenade" was developed from a demon that could emit ultrasonic waves that they an inside its body that generated these sounds to attack Haji this an as renades covered the Hydra in intense light and ultrasonic waves Hajime carried Yue and hid behind the pillars with the chance those grenades provided
"Hey! Yue! Get it together!"
"…"
She didn’t react to his words with her paling expression and tre body What the heck did the black head do to her? While he cursed, he slapped Yue’s cheeks Hajiave her soan to dwell in her hollow eyes
"Yue!"
"…Hajiht? What happened?"
Yue confir eyes She extends out her sh escaped her lips as she realized that Hajian to collect at the edge of her eyes
"…What a relief…I thought I was abandoned…alone in the dark again…"
"Ah? What are you talking about?"
Hajime was perplexed at her state Yue said she saw a scene play out where Hajime had abandoned her and resealed her When she saw that, a strong sense of insecurity struck her She became bound by fear then it paralyzed her body and mind
"Tsk! A debuff spell? Seems like the black head can induce panic into its opponent Shit, that ood balance of skills!"
"…Hajime"
Yue watched Hajime curse at the troubleso scene Being abandoned by Haji her after 300 years He who didn’t treat her differently after she told him she was a vampire, and allow her to fed off of him day-by-day It was unavoidable that her heart yielded
The only place for Yue was besides Hajime How nice it hen they proether She didn’t even want to ihtmare was stuck in her head and ate her up Haji frorabbed his clothes
"…I…"
She was shaking with an uneasy expression that was close to crying Hajiht In his usual s Either way, he had promised to take her to Japan There was no reason to pretend not to know
He would probably be able to comfort her ords, but there was no time for that If he said some half-hearted words, she would still fall prey to the black head’s ic There was a possibility that Hajime would ht of that excuse, Hajime scratched his head and squatted in front of Yue to meet her eyes
And then…
"?…!?"
Hajime inclined his head and kissed Yue
Their lips only touched a bit, but Yue had a dramatic reaction She just seriously stared at Hajime
He diverted his eyes bashfully, and led her to stand with his hand
"We will kill that beast and survive Then, ill reach the surface and return hoether"
Yue started at Hajime in utter aently display a beautiful sather hi to use the Schlagen It can’t fire continuously, so please cover me"
"…Leave it to me!"
Yue is suddenly full of one, and in place was a voice full of ambition All the anxiety before vanished coh in various ways Hajime recalled his usual lack of independence, he thinks about the future, maybe he acted rashly However, the Hydra performed an explosion The beast roared as it pelleted the area Hajime and Yue were at with fireballs, wind blades, and ice shards
Two people jumped out of the shadow of the pillar and started their counterattack
""Scarlet Spear"! "Iic was activated rapidly Magic built up at an i spear with vacuu around it and a sharp needle attacks the Hydra all at once She had aiap when they attacked and launched it towards the red, green, and blue head to force the yellow head to act But it didn’tfor the white head, it raised a roar
"Kuruuan!"
