and then shorten the chain in order to move.
The charge attack Daybreak Star was a physical and magic attack that dealt damage depending on which status was weaker, Defense or Magic Defense.
It was likely an effective charge attack because she was a special 3rd, Armored Sister, who had high Attack and Magic Attack.

It was impressive that a beginner could become a special 3rd… But then again, I was new to VRMMOs and had done it quite quickly…
And since Ann had cleared the zodiac trials, Charin must have given her some kind of reward as well.
It was natural to think that both of us had become stronger because of that.

“So you can use fused charge attacks too.”

“Yes! When I used a strange item that Charin gave me after the trials, I acquired the skill, Star Fusion!”

So I was right…
Charin had said it herself, that she distributed different items depending on the player.
Was the ‘not distant future’ that the fortune teller talked about related to how Charin wanted all players to become stronger?

…But more importantly, I noticed that Ann answered any question that I had.
I couldn’t help but be curious about her job and skills, and ended up asking questions.
And she always answered perfectly.
The fact that she wasn’t on her guard put me at ease, and I started talking more casually.

“Still, Mr.
Kyuji, the top floor still feels like it’s far away…”

“Well, it took quite a long time to reach the 1st floor from the elevator…”

The idea that we still had a long way to go was like a heavy weight on my heart.
Everyone who wanted the stamp would try to reach the top.
So there would be even more enemies waiting there…
If it was just a dungeon with one floor, we could break through the walls and move in a straight line…

“No, we could break our way upwards…!”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“Let’s use I’m Arrow and fly through the ceiling!”

“Ohh! That is a splendid idea!”

“Ah, but I can’t take you with me…”

“What! You can just hold me like how you did during the Charin fight! As we are a party, we won’t do damage to each other even while in the versus field!”

“I see…”

I was about to wrap my arm around her…but suddenly felt a little embarrassed…
With Charin, I had been desperate, and it was the only way to ensure that the sacrifices of my teammates didn’t go to waste.
But it felt a little awkward to hold some woman who I had only recently just met.

Still! I was a gamer.

And that wasn’t enough to stop what I thought was a very good idea.

“Alright! Hold onto me!”

“Very well.
Excuse me…”

Anne put her arms around me from behind and locked them tightly together.

“Or should I be in the front?”

“No, I want you to attack our surroundings as we spin.
As this is a pure charge attack, I’m Arrow, it will be canceled out if another player hits us with a charge attack while we’re flying.”

“Oh, I see!”

When fighting Charin, I had fused it with Stardust Arrow.
But if we did that now, we would then shoot right back through the floors and end up in the bottom again.
I also considered combining Sky Tear and Burning Arrow, but Sky Tear was so fast that it would be difficult to control, and Burning Arrow’s explosion would destroy any ground that we’d need to land on.
And so I would use I’m Arrow alone!

“I’m Arrow!”

“Giant Shine Star!”

Anne unleashed a strong-sounding charge attack.
The iron ball expanded and unleashed a blinding light…!
And then through I’m Arrow’s high-speed rotation, the iron ball also began to swing rapidly.

It was now more demolition than self-defense…!!
We broke through the ceiling, turning the players above us into dust as we flew up in a straight line.
Would there even be a floor on the top for us to land on…?
