Chapter 86: Thread 11: Kisaragi Tsukasa's Triumph

1: Anonymous Explorer

Thread to discuss UNKNOWN (Real name: Kisaragi Tsukasa), an EX-rank explorer.

Feel free to talk about both his dungeon explorations and the streams on Kisaragi Tsukasa's channel.

Next thread should be created by whoever hits post 950.

If you can't manage it, let someone else know early.

The previous thread filled up fast, so I made this one.

With how fast these threads are moving, maybe the person at 900 should start the new thread.

Thanks.

Thanks. Things have calmed down a bit after the stream, so 950 should be fine.

5: Anonymous Explorer

Maybe switch to 900 during streams?

6: Anonymous Explorer

Is it really necessary? The thread only blew up because all the EXs were gathered to clear the Sapporo Dungeon's final floor, right?

7: Anonymous Explorer

Who knows? This thread can speed up at random times.

8: Anonymous Explorer

950 seems fine for now.

9: Anonymous Explorer

Isn't it because the media acts like trash that they're treated as such?

10: Anonymous Explorer

That's how it always is.

11: Anonymous Explorer

Felt worse than usual this time. Who bombards explorers with questions right after they finish exploring the deep layers?

12: Anonymous Explorer

They watched the same stream we did, right? The one where these guys showed inhuman strength. Honestly, I kind of respect the nerve of people who can still be that rude.

13: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞9

They're trash for a reason. It'd be great if they went extinct already.

14: Anonymous Explorer

The anti-thread's blowing up too. Kisaragi's completely taken over as the top dungeon streamer. With this stream, his subscribers easily passed one million, and they're still skyrocketing.

15: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞14

He's getting a lot of international subscribers. He'll probably hit ten million in no time, especially since he doesn't cater just to a Japanese audience.

16: Anonymous Explorer

Not catering just to Japan (but only speaks Japanese).

17: Anonymous Explorer

Honestly, even we don't always understand what Kisaragi is saying, so it's fine.

18: Anonymous Explorer

People are hyping him up, but didn't he just watch from the sidelines this time? Wasn't he pretty useless? We didn't need the weakest EX for this.

19: Anonymous Explorer

I'm satisfied just watching deep-floor streams. Sometimes I watch international ones too. I can't understand the language, so I'm never sure if it's upper or mid-floor, but it's fun.

Wasn't the Sapporo Dungeon really dark and creepy? The EXs looked fine, though.

22: Anonymous Explorer

I'm just happy I got to watch Jinguji Kaede fight live. Thanks, Kisaragi.

23: Anonymous Explorer

This might be the first time we've seen Jinguji Kaede's battles in a stream. She's never cared about that kind of stuff before.

24: Anonymous Explorer

Who said EX Salaryman was the "normal" one of the group? That was a lie. He's a monster just like the others.

25: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞24

He's an EX, of course he's not normal.

26: Anonymous Explorer

The Sapporo Dungeon thread is in chaos right now.

Well, it just got cleared.

28: Anonymous Explorer

Kisaragi didn't do anything useful. Useless trash. LOL. Just quit being an EX and stop streaming. LOL.

Best not to poke the trolls.

Kisaragi summoning dragons was seriously cool.

That was Seiryu, not a dragon.

Whatever, same thing lol.

I mean, I get that it's not the same, but it's not really a big deal either.

It was hilarious when he summoned that handsome guy. Guess he can imagine someone better-looking than himself.

41: Anonymous Explorer

Give him a break, lol.

42: Anonymous Explorer

Come on, even otakus can imagine beautiful 2D girls, so of course he can. You all fantasize about cute girls even though your own faces are wrecked.

You're no different, lol.

45: Anonymous Explorer

Why are missiles flying around this thread?

46: Anonymous Explorer

It's because Kisaragi's like a tactical nuke himself. (Random)

47: Anonymous Explorer

Since he cleared the Sapporo Dungeon, I guess he'll take a break from streaming for a bit. EX explorers probably have a lot of other work to do.

48: Anonymous Explorer

After seeing this, it feels like EXs should be used more for dungeon clearances rather than other jobs.

49: Anonymous Explorer

Why don't they have them clear more dungeons?

50: Anonymous Explorer

There's no real benefit to clearing them. It's a pain because of all the politics involved.

51: Anonymous Explorer

Well, even if they clear the bottom floors, the only thing they gain is fame. The money from magic stones ends up in politicians' pockets whether or not the dungeon is cleared. So the government-affiliated Explorers Association has no real reason to clear dungeons.

52: Anonymous Explorer

Corruption at its finest.

53: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞52

This has been going on for a while though, hasn't it?

54: Anonymous Explorer

They probably see EX explorers as just pawns in their game. They assign them to various problems while they sit back and rake in the money.

55: Anonymous Explorer

Wait, they think they can control something as dangerous as an EX like it's just a tool? Are they idiots?

56: Anonymous Explorer

If an EX bites back, it's not just a simple problem. The whole country could disappear with that level of power.

57: Anonymous Explorer

If the politicians had any brains, they wouldn't be the symbol of incompetence that they are.

58: Anonymous Explorer

Kisaragi is the real incompetent one. LOL. He relies on his shikigami for everything, a total fraud. Just quit streaming already. LOL.

How many of the Twelve Heavenly Generals has Kisaragi summoned? I only remember Kijin and Byakko.

64: Anonymous Explorer

I don't even know much about the Twelve Heavenly Generals.

65: Anonymous Explorer

Who understands all that Buddhist stuff? I'm just watching Kisaragi's streams for the vibes.

66: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞65

If you've watched his streams, you should at least know which shikigami he's summoning, right?

67: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞63

Kijin: Black-haired, beautiful but slightly unfortunate woman, Kisaragi's annoying fan, seems to be a versatile support-type shikigami.

Byakko: White tiger that uses iron-manipulating magic, very fast.

Kouchin: Can't see it, but it's supposedly there. Specializes in barriers.

Seiryu: Green dragon, uses wood-based magic.

Taijou: White-haired, narrow-eyed handsome guy, support role.

Tenkuu: Silver-haired beauty, uses weather-control magic.

That's what I remember so far. I missed a few streams though, so if I forgot any, feel free to add them.

68: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞67

Thanks for the detailed summary!

69: Anonymous Explorer

Wow, didn't realize he'd summoned that many already.

70: Anonymous Explorer

I might not remember who's who, but I do recall that Kijin and Tenkuu are both beautiful.

71: Anonymous Explorer

I'm jealous of Taijou. He's too handsome. But having him do your paperwork sounds pretty great. Continue your adventure with m|v-l'e -NovelFire.net

72: Anonymous Explorer

I wish Taijou would handle my taxes too.

73: Anonymous Explorer

Stop trying to shove all your paperwork onto a shikigami.

74: Anonymous Explorer

I should learn shikigami magic too, then summon one to do my taxes. Honestly, tax documents are the real enemy for dungeon explorers.

75: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞74

I feel that on a spiritual level.

76: Anonymous Explorer

I want to pet Byakko. Can it talk? I'd love if it spoke human language.

77: Anonymous Explorer

It'd be terrifying if a tiger suddenly started talking. Though if Kisaragi imagines it, maybe it could happen.

78: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞77

What? Talking animals are the dream. If that fluffy, handsome Byakko started talking, I'd lose my mind.

79: Anonymous Explorer

Is this person a serious furry?

80: Anonymous Explorer

This thread is getting wild with strange fetishes. LOL.

81: Anonymous Explorer

So the ones left are Touda, Suzaku, Rokkoku, Tenko, Taiin, and Genbu, right?

We've seen half of them now. Should we say Kisaragi's revealed half his cards, or does he still have plenty left up his sleeve?

82: Anonymous Explorer

He can summon gods, so his hand is basically limitless. He's strong enough to instantly kill anything from Shibuya Dungeon's 80th floor and beyond.

83: Anonymous Explorer

If he didn't care about collateral damage, he could've probably one-shot the final boss of the Sapporo Dungeon by summoning a god.

84: Anonymous Explorer

He might be avoiding that because summoning gods has some unknown consequences. Didn't he say he was totally exhausted the last time he summoned one?

85: Anonymous Explorer

Only people who know shikigami magic would understand that.

86: Anonymous Explorer

Has anyone besides Kisaragi actually used shikigami magic?

87: Anonymous Explorer

Nope, never seen anyone else.

88: Anonymous Explorer

If anyone else knew how, we'd definitely be talking about them.

89: Anonymous Explorer

I know someone who can use it.

90: Anonymous Explorer

Shikigami magic users are just urban legends, right?

Are you serious?

93: Anonymous Explorer

For real. They're not as strong as Kisaragi, but they can use shikigami magic.

94: Anonymous Explorer

No way. I thought Kisaragi just made that up. Guess it's real.

95: Anonymous Explorer

I'll expel you from the academic community for spreading nonsense.

96: Anonymous Explorer

Apparently, shikigami magic is actually a secret technique passed down through a single lineage. No idea how Kisaragi got his hands on it though.

97: Anonymous Explorer

Didn't Kisaragi say he found it in a book given to him by Jinguji Kaede?

98: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞97

LOL

99: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞97

Seriously?

100: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞97

That's such a careless way to pass down a secret technique.

101: Anonymous Explorer

Is that really okay for a secret art passed down through generations?

102: Anonymous Explorer

So Kisaragi is now a rare case of passing down a one-person technique through a completely different method. Kisaragi, please take good care of that book from Jinguji Kaede. Don't accidentally recycle it or sell it to a secondhand store.

103: Anonymous Explorer

＞＞102

I can totally imagine him accidentally throwing it away. He better not, right? Right?

104: Anonymous Explorer

Is he really going to be okay? LOL.

I want to believe he'll be fine, but it's Kisaragi, so I'm not sure...

"We successfully cleared the Sapporo Dungeon by defeating the Giant Crystal Lizard. Here's the loot we got: crystal from the lizard. Apparently, its purity is way higher than the golems we've seen in this dungeon, so Aizawa-san was really happy. Seems like she's planning to upgrade her shield again."
