>I sometimes did see powerful players who just swung their weapons and charged in the direction of oncoming arrows, but that made them good targets.

“Still, that tower is quite far away.
I’m not even joking…”

“Since there are more participants now than during the battle royale, they probably increased the size of the map.
The mountains also seem to be higher.”

“I see.
So that’s why it’s taking us so long.
At this rate, there might be other parties who have already reached it.”

“Yes.
You might have to fight in the opposite position as last time, Mr.
Kyuji.
Of course, I will continue to hide.”

“And I’ll be doing the same thing as last time as well.
It really is fun to sneak up on enemies and kill them! I love seeing their expressions of surprise!”

“I’m jealous of all of you.
I wasn’t playing yet during that battle royale.”

Our nerves started to calm down as we talked.
Some people might think that we were letting our guard down.
However, we were all looking in different directions and remained watchful as we talked.
It just showed that our concentration was incredibly high.

“…They are coming up behind us.
They haven’t noticed us yet, but they are close.”

“Anne and I will annihilate them before they can get closer.
Mr.
Kyuji, can you do the flash?”

“Got it.”

Satomi and Anne would take care of the close and mid-range enemies.
While I was good at sniping and Necoco was good at stealthy assassinations, we lacked the firepower of players who put a lot of points into Attack and Magic Attack.
And so Necoco and I would support the other two this time.

“Gatling Flash Arrow…!”

I unleashed a stun grenade-like flash arrow at the enemy party.
While it didn’t deal any damage, it would blind them for a while.

“Charge attack – Firerock Flower!”

“Charge attack – Meteor Star!”

Both of them were attacks that dropped huge objects from the sky like meteors.

While they took some time to fall, the enemy could usually escape.
But this time, they were blinded by the flash.
In the end, the enemy decided to use defense skills rather than run.
While the two charge attacks were slow, they dealt a lot of damage.
Though they weren’t all killed, they lay on the ground wounded.
And then Necoco and I quickly took them out.

While we hadn’t assigned everyone a role, this party was functioning very well.
Like a machine where all of the gears moved together perfectly.
If we kept this up, we could easily take the tower even if there were already enemies there…that’s what I thought.
Until ‘they’ appeared.

“Hahahaha! This field! And to think that we’d meet again at this tower… It must be fate! I won’t let you say that you’ve forgotten me this time, Mr.
Kyuji!”

We had finally arrived at the stone tower.
And the person waiting for us on the top was…

“Hmm… Uh, Mad Slime! Mad Slime… Slime…Slime Man!”

“Correct! Good! I see that it takes two fights for you to remember a name! Though, it did take you a while to get to it, but I’ll let it slide!”

Slime Man was the green whip wielder who I had killed during the Under X Battle Royale!
And he had ambushed me on the Ghost Float in the name of revenge.
To be honest, he was quite amusing, which made me less nervous than I should be.
Because he was not to be underestimated.

Especially since he held a one-sided grudge against me.
There was a possibility that he would forget the prize and glory, and focus on defeating me alone.
And I did not want to get caught up in a self-destructive attack that was purely driven by emotion!
In a way, this was the last kind of enemy that I would have wanted to meet during a battle royale…!
