582 582. Leave It To Me
I did it!
Emily gave a pleasant smile.
The demon's other horn, which had stopped moving, also snapped off and disappeared just like that, and the fruit was dropped.
A very puffy fruit covered in snake-like scales ...... fruit?It was.
I pick it up.
'What kind of thing is this?'
It smells sour.
Emily sniffed from my side and said.
'If it smells sour, then it must be a proper fruit.
Yes, sir. I smell the sourness of the fruit.
I see.
These tendencies aren't going to change easily, I'm sure.
Celeste came next to me on the other side and said, staring at the snakescale fruit.
'As the family's wise counselor, she's getting a lot of information and knowledge, and she's probably thinking more strongly about it.
'I suppose,'
Is that all you have to do?
Well, I'm not so sure about that: ......
I look around while saying this, and I can't help but giggle at the sight of it appearing before I knew it (...).
To my surprise, three staircases appeared a short distance away from the place where I defeated the demon.
"There are three stairs, sir.
Now I guess the three of us have to go down separately.
I suppose that's what it means.
'Just as well, because there are three of us and three of them over there - there are three staircases appearing over there, aren't there?I'm sure.
I'm sure it is, but ...... is a tricky one, this one.
What?
Celeste cocks her head and wonders.
'Awkward about what?'
I mean there's no guarantee anywhere that the staircase will end at this and stop at three.
Ah, .......
Ah, .......
Celeste and Emily, both huffing and puffing at the same time.
Yes, that was the scariest part.
There's no guarantee that this will end nowhere, and there's a new question of what to do if there's even more in the next one.
What should we do if that happens--''
'No, we'll figure that out later. Let's go back upstairs first. It's possible that things are different on Sakura's side.
Well, maybe that's a good idea.
Yes, sir.
We left the three stairs leading down and went back upstairs.
Fourteen floors below Nihonium, when we came back, Sakura, Alice and Eve were already back and waiting for us.
'If your uncle is looking like that, then it looks like there were three stairs there too.
I don't know what I look like.
I chuckled and touched my own cheek in a sticky way.
'Well, that's the way it is,'
Three is good, but then there's the second.
Sakura was frightened and tried to shrug her shoulders.
The look on Alice and Eve's faces when they were with her told her that Sakura had already given her that guess.
'What do we do now, Uncle?'
'Let's try to clear it up for now. I don't know if we'll get four, but I can't help but worry about that and not move on.
'Yes, there was no penalty for coming back like now. If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter.
Sakura says and I look around at my friends.
Emily, Celeste, Alice, and Eve.
They all indicated with their own reactions, "Yes sir.
'What about timing?'Again, if they had to be destroyed at the same time.
Let's go two steps further.
How does the second step work?
'Everyone takes it down at their own pace at first. That way you can probably figure out when the slowest person is going to be the one to beat.
'I see, so you're going to have to get through on the second try to time it.
Celeste nodded quietly and agreed.
'That's a safe way to do it, a safe bet. I suppose you could do it the same way, though, by trying to get a shot at breaking through with an assault.
How do you do it, Sakura?
Everyone else is going to beat you first. As far as I'm concerned, there isn't much difference between the two except for the uncle. I think they will all match up to some extent naturally.
Yeah, okay.
Alice clapped her hands with a pop.
'So after the five of you are done, Lyota will be the fastest one to finish up.
That's what I mean. As expected of you, you know what you're doing since you're using Ryouchin.
"Heh.
Alice smiled shyly when Sakura praised her.
As Sakura said, the strategy built around me was easy to convey to Alice, who always used meRyochin as her trump card.
'...... Let's try it with that,'
Celeste thought for a moment and then suggested that.
'Are you sure, Celeste?'
Yes, I think it will be a challenge for us to adjust to Lyota, and I think it will be a good inspiration and experience for us.
'Yes, sir. I'll do my best to keep up with Yoda.
Emily agreed with Celeste's suggestion.
'I think it's a good idea too, and I can use Ryouchin when the need arises.
'You're so cocky for a low level.'
Alice agreed as well, and Eve didn't object in her usual fashion.
'Good!Then let's go with that. That's fine, Uncle.
'All right. On the other hand, I'll do my best to fit in with everyone else.
It's a big responsibility because my last tome will be very important, but I knew I had to do it since they've asked me to do it so much.
So let's go again.
""Oh!"
With a shout, we went down to the fifteenth floor underground again, using the combination of what we had just done.
