"Today, we are going to take on the Dungeon Boss on the 5th Floor."
"At last, you're going for the Dungeon Boss."
"We are just going to scout. Sophie's skills haven't developed yet."
At the usual base, while having our usual breakfast, I told Helmios and his party what we planned to do that day.
It was the day I decided to take on the Dungeon Boss.
We spent about 10 days analyzing the A-rank summons, and we had enough Medals to go to the 5th Floor.
I had not yet completed my complete analysis of the special skills of the A-rank summons.
Besides, Sophie's skills were not yet Level 6, and she couldn't handle the Spirits well enough.
However, the reward for defeating the Dungeon Boss would be given each time it was defeated.
The first time reward would only be given once, but as in the Class C to Class A dungeons, defeating Dungeon Boss always gave rewards.
(If we can't make it, we can just run away.)
Admiral Galara's party challenged the Dungeon Boss, but was unable to defeat it and retreated.
I decided to challenge the Dungeon Boss because I knew that retreat was possible.
"Tsk."
In the midst of our conversation, Admiral Galara, who had been sitting on his sofa and drinking, clicked his tongue.
"Admiral Galara, is something wrong?"
"You guys aren't good enough to challenge the Dungeon Boss."
(Hoh?)
"Ah! It's always this and that!"
"Hey. Dogora."
(You have no tolerance for provocation.)
Dogora's face turned bright red when I called him out.
The conversation ended with me admonishing Dogora, and we headed for the dungeon.
"I know you were pretty worried."
Even when we decided to take on the S-rank Floor Bosses, Helmios' party members were reasonably concerned about us.
And that time, we were challenging the magical beast, who had defeated Admiral Galara's party, which seemed to have gathered the strongest of the Bakius Empire.
Although they did not stop them, the concern on their faces for us, who had lived together for many months, was evident.
"We'll be fine. Allen has become stronger. I mean, he's getting too strong."
Cecile said while hitting me lightly.
"No, I'm the only one who can't change Talents."
Unlike me, my friends had very high underlying status as a result of changing Talents many times.
I was unable to transfer half of my status by changing Talents, and my Level was at a standstill.
"It doesn't matter either way."
Dogora, whose anger had subsided, agreed.
Everyone nodded.
(Yes, I've gained enough power that it doesn't matter if I can't change my Talent. No. What would I do if I were satisfied here?)
I admonished myself for my thoughts, which were almost satisfying for a moment.
Thinking so while standing in the queue, we used our Medals to move up the Floors.
"All right, we're going to the 5th Floor."
"Ah."
"Yeah."
Dogora picked up the Axe he had been carrying on his shoulder and gripped it tightly.
Kurena, likewise, took her Greatsword and stepped forward to protect the rear guard in case the enemy suddenly attacked.
"No, but lLet me ask you a question. Does the Medal to be fitted into this pedestal have to be the one that we will get from the Bronze Room?"
"Yes. You have to defeat the Bronze Medal's Guardian Golem to get the Medal."
I looked at my friends and they looked back at me with looks that said they understood.
We could see lights in front of and to the left and right, so we decided to check them all.
In the center was the S501, the Return System.
On its right was S502, the Bronze System.
Behind it was S503, the Iron System.
On its left was S504, the Mithril System.
And in front of it was S505, the Dungeon Boss Transition System.
I recorded the information in my Grimoire.
We had to go to the Medal Rooms, defeat the Guardians and place the Medals on the pedestal. Only then could we face the Dungeon Boss.
"Allen, which one should we go to first?"
Kurena asked which Guardian Golem to take down first.
We had no thoughts of going back.
"For now, let's go to the weakest, the Bronze Room."
Since the Medals in the S-class dungeon were also in order from Bronze to Mithril, I decided to defeat the Bronze Guardian first, assuming that it was the weakest one.
"I am S502, the Bronze System. Would you like to move to the Bronze Room?"
"Yes."
Buzz
The moment my response ended, our vision changed.
"This is a hall. And there is a big Golem in front of us."
I looked around the hall, ignoring the Golem in front of me.
I thought that it wouldn't move as long as we didn't enter its range.
"Do we have to defeat it?"
"I guess so. It's probably the Bronze Guardian Golem. At any rate, it's an elusive magical beast. Let Merus take the first shot."
"Ah."
I summoned Angel Merus, which I had stored in my Grimoire as a card, and Merus approached the Golem.
Although Merus was a card tucked away in my Grimoire, he understood the situation we were having outside.
It was so, because like my other summons, he also shared my experiences in his card state.
As Merus got closer to it, the Bronze Golem, nearly 100 meters in size, began to move violently.
It spun its hand like a drill and closed in on Merus.
Merus also closed the distance at once, as if to match the Bronze Golem's attack.
"Gufu!"
Merus, who had 22,000 [Attack] was blown away by the force.
(Oh, that's quite powerful.)
The Bronze Golem seemed to overwhelm the Merus' offensive capabilities.
That's what I thought at the moment.
The Angel's Ring that was floating above Merus' head glowed faintly.
Then, too fast for anyone to hear, Merus muttered.
"Activation of the special skill [Angel's Ring]. Administrator authority confirmed. Summoning A-rank Dragon.'
'''Gruaaaah!!!'''
An A-rank Dragon was summoned from behind me.
And its five heads were closing in on the Bronze Golem.
