A Certain Middle-aged Man’s VRMMO Activity Log

Chapter 58



Toaru Ossan no VRMMO Katsudouki

A/N: After a lot, were faced with a boss.

Other than the Fairy Queen, huh

With the Chivalrous Thief Skill leveling up to 15, I can finally begin my solo attack into the Dungeons depths. By the way, it looks like other people are mainly grouping up with fixed, Dungeon-exclusive parties, so the cases where lone people get recruited have largely decreased. Its the nature of the Dungeon; theres no helping it.

Even so, Ive challenged the Dungeon 32 times. There are also times where Ive taken the Death Penalties.

For the Time Attack, shaving off useless movements, raising my speed, seeing through traps, fooling the detection of groups of monsters that had just noticed me, I repeated these every day.

Everyday I challenged it at least 3 times, and on holidays I challenged it around 8 times; it was about that many times I returned; from other peoples points of view I must look like a lunatic.

And now this will be the 33rd challenge.

Im more aware than ever and Im in good form, so my concentration feels like its increased; trap detection, monster detection & evasive route selection, and quickened movements are actually going quite smoothly.

Several times monsters had gotten quite close, but there Id hold my breath and evade their searching. It took me around 8 times to realize that those guys also react to breathing.

Right now Im on the 9th floor the remaining time is barely 5 minutes its a level where, not a Lesser but a full-blown Lich is prowling. If the Lich finds the solo me, Ill be destroyed.

No, in a purely 1 VS 1 I can make do somehow, but on this floor, if I fight then the other Undead will react in an instant and come assault me. Naturally I dont have the abilities to smoothly deal with that amount solo; because of the Lichs Dark Magic, if it throws a lot of Bad-Status inducing magic around and ties down my movements, the other monsters will come and do me in.

Killing off my breathing, killing off my presence, increasing my thinking abilities, in the darkness using my Dark Vision ability and making full use of the Farsight Skill to run away, I, all by myself, reached the stairs to the 10th floor. What could be waiting there, what could be found there, theres nothing for it but to go and see; for this purpose only I kept descending 32 times.

Physical Ability Reinforcement has become Lv30, and I acquired the so-called passive art , enhancing my movement abilities further. Using everything I had to seek out the stairs on the 10th floor the time left is 1 minute 14 seconds.

With just 24 secondsleft I found the stairs.

But around these stairs a large number of traps have been arranged all around it.

I dont have any time to waste dismantling so, reluctantly, I use to enhance my jump height and jump over traps with low-degrees of warning.

Of course the traps I stepped on went off; this time, the traps I stepped on were the common traps that shot spears out of the ground; of course I took damage and shaved off some HP.

Partially down the stairs, I check that the time-limit timer display has stopped completely, and finally I release a huge sigh, then take a deep breath.

I barely made it, but it was enough. My first emotion was relief, then gradually I got excited; it finally dawned on me that I was actually standing where no one had gone before.

After that I slowly descended the stairs, drinking a Potion Juice and eating meat grilled on a skewer to recover HP and MP, as well as hunger and thirst.

But man, these stairs are frighteningly long, Ive already walked 20 meters and I still cant see the end.

Hou, hou, AT LAST there art a single man OF the humans THAT hast DESCENDED to this place.1

Suddenly that hoarse voice echoed all around.

Who the hecks there?

Did someone else already get here? And that voice

Mine name IS Andre a knight OF A CERTAIN empire I AM THOUGH THAT be a story OF long ago MOST LIKELY YOU wouldnt know OF THE name of mine empire; HOW MUCH time has paSSED I NO LONGER know.

Im descending the stairs, but I still cant see the end.

Right now the stairs YOU ARE descENDING are particularLY lonG TO PASS the time I thouGHT MINE tale WOULD BE good back THEN THIS great labyrinth OF THE dead TOOK lives of The empire; to investigate THIS labyrinth, TO seal it, I entERED it.

hm.

But you couldnt finish that task?

A short silence occurred before the voice echoed again.

You ARE correct, IT IS as you saY many subordinates I HAD BUT, THIS labyrinthS traps, eatEN BY FRIGHTFUL monsters, deATH, necks seveRED atroCIOUS deaths OCCURRED, our numbers WERE reduCED MY subordinates, MY comrades, IN EXCHANGE for THEIR blood, I pursued our course and REACHED HERE

The voice sounded like it was going to cry.

So there what was there?

There was silence again. It was strange that I could hear my footsteps loudly as I descended.

THERE was nothing.

I didnt expect that response.

Nothing, at all ?

Whats up with that? The ancient knights story continued.

YES, nothing AT ALL, ALL THERE was THERE WAS an empty space WITH nothing YES, NOT EVEN air.

!? That has to be the penultimate trap, that space.

Then you entered it

Theres only 1 thing I can expect would happen.

IT IS as you expecTED, the moment I enteRED, I diED. I underSTOOD THEN what HAD happened, I WAS forced TO entER THE ranks of THE liVING corpses the me NOW is a Skeleton Knight, AND NOW I can ONLY call out WITH my voice temporARILY HOW LONG has it BEEN SINCE I COULD REMEMBER times from beFORE

Theres one thing I want to hear.

Um, that space you entered; does it still exist even now?

The response came quickly.

NAY. I HAVE deSTRoyed it. Ironically THE me now can uSE magic that I COULDNT in LIFe, WITH all THE magic I could uSE, I destroyED THAT space THE lives THAT TRAP will claim will be 1 ONLY; myself

So hes a knight even in death

I can see the end of the stairs, so this will be my final question. What is that you want?

I bet its probably

I, kiLL me TO reTURN TO my comrades livING any LONGER Im tiRED of IT, I AM NO LONGER myself aNYMORE I DONT WISH to JUST add to THE monsters ranks, FOR that I HAVE enDURED, BUT I HAVE reACHED my limits. AlreaDY THIS body HAS ALREADY fallen TO THE desires AND actions OF A monster.

So it was like that after all. The stairs have ended, and a door that looks like the end appears.

AnY sympaTHY for me IS useless, thiNK OF me as JUST a monster and deSTROY me my consciousness is ALREADY fadING I leave IT TO you.

This is his, the Knight Andres, final words.

The one who welcomed me in that room, clad fully in heavy armor with a sword in his right hand and wielding a large shield in his left, was a boss monster, a Skeleton Knight.

Theres no one here to see no, I bet the Grim Reaper is probably watching; right now, in the Deads labyrinth, a duel is about to begin.
