The next day.
When I arrived at the meeting place that Claire told me in advance, she was already waiting for me there. She was wearing a light-cream colored cardigan on a white shirt, added with a light blue long skirt, which looks great for her calm demeanor.
“I made you wait, my bad.”
“Good morning, Amane-san. It’s not even the meeting time yet, so it’s okay.”
“I see. So, you have something to tell me, right?”
“Yes. But since it would be weird if we talked while standing, let’s go to a café.”
At Claire’s suggestion, we entered a nearby café. I ordered a milk tea and Claire ordered a café au lait.
And when our order arrived, Claire suddenly began to speak.
“First of all, please allow me to express my gratitude once again for yesterday’s matter. I have heard the general flow of events from Yagami-san. It seems it would have been difficult to win against the extra boss if not for Amane-san there. That is why, thank you very much for protecting them.”
“You are welcome. However, is it fine talking about something like that here?”
“I used a soundproofing skill, so the other customers can’t overhear our conversation. Please, rest assured.”
To think she even has such a skill… I was a little surprised.
“Let’s get back to the topic of dungeons. After that event, realizing that the dungeon had a difficulty that could even destroy an average A-rank party, I alone captured the Onizuka Dungeon and investigated the mechanism of that dungeon in detail. So, I thought it would be better to inform Amane-san, who was present at that event, about the result of my investigation.”
“I see. I am certainly interested in it.”
… It may be useful as a reference when I am going to do the usual repeated-capture on that dungeon after all.
“There are three aspects that differentiate Onizuka Dungeon from ordinary dungeons. The first one is that the magical power that floats throughout the dungeon contains regeneration properties. Thus, because the more powerful the magic stone a monster has, the more magic power it absorbs, the probability of the regeneration or resurrection to happen also becomes high.”
When she said it, I recalled there was certainly such a tendency.
“The second one is the monster parade that occurred on the 30th floor. It seems, numerous monsters will appear and attack you if you stay on that floor for more than 10 minutes. And the last is about the irregular room that awaits you if you try to escape from the monster parade. And if one enters that room, they have to fight against a level 40,000 extra boss, the High Ogre, just as Amane-san and the others experienced.”
And here, Claire suddenly added, “However”.
