Chapter 100 - Gatekeeper x3

――Sky Prison, First basement level.

　The moment we descended to the first floor, my whole body was attacked by an incredibly hot wind and it felt like it was burning me.

“Uoh, Hot, hot”

“……This is the Scorching Heavenly Prison……This entire floor is eternally covered in flames……burning to death the angels who have committed sin……”

　As Gabriena said, there were seas of flames ablaze in many places.

　Just by breathing in, my throat seems to be burning.

　Although we are still quite the distance away from the sea, the surrounding temperature still exceeded that of a sauna by a large margin.

　It’s probably around 180 degrees.

Though I’d still be okay even if I entered that sea of flames because of my skill 〈Environmental Resistance・Extreme〉.

　The magma the Prison Flame Dragons spewed was hotter though.

　Gabriena, on the other hand, protected her body with an Aura of Heavenly Power, which seemed to defend her against the flames and heat.

“……If it’s me…… I can hold on for several years……”

　However, that feat was only made possible by her enormous Heavenly Power.

　This isn’t possible for normal angels.

　Even if they were to stop using their Heavenly Power, the angel’s high vitality would keep them alive for a while, but they’d eventually become unable to endure the heat and die from dehydration.

　It’s that way, because, unlike the ground floor, it is said if one gets imprisoned in the first basement floor and below it’s the same as getting the death penalty.

　Thus, I heard that there’s no end to the people who are trying to escape.

　However, that’s why the strongest gatekeepers who prevented them from doing that were there.

“Oooooooooooooooooooooh!!!”

　What came falling down from above our heads with a tremendous roar was a huge demonic person who had flames raging all over his body.

Ifrit

　Race: Angel (Fallen Angel)

　Level: ‐

　Skill: 〈Heavenly Power〉〈Condemning Conflagration・Extreme〉

“……A gatekeeper is placed on each floor…… because they can’t let others go up to the upper floors……”

　Usually, such strong enemies are found at the end of each floor according to game theory, but if one were to think about it, the prisoners are trying to escape to the upper floors.

　So, on the contrary, if you were to go down, they’d be the first ones you encounter.

“Ifrit was……originally an angel……although he became a Fallen Angel and went to the Heavenly Prison……That Fire Power was highly valued so…… he became this floor’s gatekeeper……..or so it seems”

　Didn’t he match his workplace pretty well?

“No one is allowed to break out…….”

　Ifrit stood before us, while fire was spouting out of his nose.

“No, we don’t want to break out, you know? We’re trying to break in, break in. We clearly came from the upper floors, didn’t we?”

“Intruders……? Intruders shall be……Eliminated……!!”

　Ifrit swung down his huge fist covered in flames.

　His full height was larger than 20 meters, even his fist is bigger than mine.

　But,

“――!?”

　I stopped it with one hand.

“Hooot~. Even though I repeatedly cast flame resistance magic and gathered my fighting spirit in my fist it’s still this hot?”

　That guy’s body is covered in super-high temperature flames that a hot iron plate would look cute next to it.

　Normally, if one were to touch it directly, one’s flesh would melt in just a moment.

“It can’t be…….Why, was it stopped…….?”

　Ifrit put strength in his arm and seemed like he planned on crushing me.

　However, unfortunately, in terms of raw power, no, even in raw power, I’m superior.

“If it’s like that, I shall use even more flames until you’re burned into crisps”

　The flames on Ifrit’s body concentrated on one of his arms.

　The amount of heat I could feel on my right hand went up even more.

　As is expected, this is hot.

　I have to cool it off, huh.

“〈Eternal Frozen Earth Permafrost〉”

“!?”

　The cold wave of that extreme cold pushed back the heat, in fact, it froze the demonic person’s gigantic fist into solid ice.

　It’s the same super grade ice magic I used to freeze the Hell Flame Dragon.

“……What’s with that, magical power…….? “

　Gabriena is holding her breath because the power of a magic spell is basically proportional to the amount of magical power one puts into it. I, who held the skill 〈Magical Power Manipulation・Extreme〉, could release an enormous amount of magical power all at once, so I was able to increase the power of super grade magic by several-fold.

“I won’t, get frozen…….. By this degree of cold……”

“Ooh, as expected. The Hell Flame Dragon became an ice sculpture with just this”

　I was able to freeze one arm of that flaming demonic person.

　And that part was only frozen on the surface as well, moreover, it would immediately melt from the inside out because of that super high heat if I relaxed just a little bit.

“Gabriena, are the preparations ready?”

“……I just finished……”

　At that moment, Ifrit’s whole body got covered in the light of Heavenly Power.

“? This is……!?”

　Ifrit is stuck in the motion of pulling out his fist.

　What sealed his movements was the Heavenly Power Barrier Gabriena produced.

“My, my body……! How did you make such a strong barrier……?”

　Ifrit didn’t notice Gabriena’s presence at all.

　She was under the radar because I attracted his whole attention.

　There’s no doubt about it, that she, who is a seraph breaking into the Heavenly Prison to save her older sister, would get burned down.

　Because of that, I used the skill 〈Concealment・Extreme〉just on her, so as to not let her be noticed as much as possible.

　It can also be used on specific people.

“Should I set up another barrier just to be sure?”

　I also have the skill 〈Barrier Magic・Extreme〉.

　I additionally applied a barrier made out of magical power around the Heavenly Power Barrier, trapping Ifrit.

　Obviously it wasn’t possible to teleport out of it or into it, but it also shouldn’t be possible to establish communication with telepathy.

　This might slightly delay the transmission of information that intruders appeared inside the Heavenly Prison.

　――Heavenly Prison, Second Basement Floor

　What awaited us who passed through the Scorching Heavenly Prison and went down to a lower layer was a symmetrical, extremely cold world.

“…….This is the Frigid Heavenly Prison……Anyway, it’s cold……”

“Rather than just cold, this is to the level that it burns and hurts, that’s what this is”

　It was close to 100 degrees below zero.

　The lowest temperature observed on earth was if I’m certain, -90 degrees in the South Pole, right?

　Besides, snow was constantly getting blown about.

　A normal human probably might have immediately died and turned into an ice sculpture.

　Of course, there was also a gatekeeper in this place.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

　This time it was a beautiful angel with a pure white body.

　Compared to Ifrit’s height this one was a lot smaller, but she was still around two meters tall.

Kluone

　Race: Angel (Fallen Angel)

　Level: ‐

　Skill: 〈Heavenly Power〉〈Condemning Congelation・Extreme〉

　This one also seems to be a Fallen Angel.

“Intruders shall be exterminated.”

　The Fallen Ice Angel declared as such in a stern voice.

　Welp, shall we neutralize her with the same method I did to Ifrit?

　――Heavenly Prison, Third Basement Floor

　We easily overcame the second basement floor’s gatekeeper by locking her in a barrier as well, then after we passed through the floor covered in snow and ice we went down to the third basement floor.

　A stench assailed my nose, making my eyes and throat hurt.

　That’s how it should be.

　There were poisonous swamps here and there and the air of this floor was filled with poisonous gas that would kill a normal human if they were to just breathe in a bit of it.

“The Fallen Angels that are taken to this place…… are said to die……. after one week…… even I could only survive a month……”

　Looks like angels can only endure a week in here.

　Naturally, people who wanted to escape from this place appeared one after the other.

　Moreover, because they were going to die anyway they all bet their lives on escaping.

　The gatekeeper who thoroughly turns the tables on these Fallen Angels is that guy.

Fafnir Hydra

　Race: Poison Dragon

　Level: 118

　Skill: 〈Lethal Poison Secretion・Extreme〉

　The gatekeeper of this floor seems to be a dragon for some reason.

　Originally, a Poison Dragon would be a high-ranking dragon, however, that guy’s strength was of the Divine Dragon class without a doubt.

　I don’t know whether he’s a mutant or lived for a long time and evolved, but his poison resistance was flawless, so he might have been taken forcibly by the Angels as they deemed him suitable to be the gatekeeper of this floor.

　He had more than ten heads in total.

　However, right now he was sleeping in a swamp.

“””Zzz…….”””

　We planned to just sneak past him because it wasn’t really necessary to especially wake him up.
