Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City 254 It's just a small quest; nothing strange will happen, right? (Patreon)

"Ouranos, he agreed to the quest." 

Under the guild headquarters, there was a large space where a pillar built like a certain worshipping venue was built. On top of that, a figure with a dignified appearance sat as he heard a report from Fels. 

"I see." 

The figure nodded. "Thank you for your hard work." 

"No problem." Fels sighed. "I guess... I was too suspicious before, so he almost exploded the entire district to force me out." 

"...I am glad that nothing is happening." 

Ouranos. 

While the name of this deity might be unfamiliar to many, especially those lower beings, every deity was familiar to him. Even when the War Game happened, and the deity asked permission to use their power to broadcast the match, they would call the name of this deity. 

So, who was he? 

The creator of the guild. 

This was his identity, and he was also one of the first deities who descended from heaven. However, unlike before, he threw away all of the daily matters of the guild to the employees. Naturally, this greatly made those guild employees since they could get many benefits as their deity didn't watch over them. 

Due to that, those guild employees even tried to hide many things from Ouranos, leaving him inside this dark temple alone. 

However, naturally, some things couldn't be hidden from him, and there were many sensitive matters that Ouranos handled by himself, including a certain matter, especially that was related to the dungeon. 

"But why did you choose him, Ouranos? As the Demi Spirit is also related, isn't the Sword Princess more suitable for this job?" 

Fels was confused by Ouranos' decision to give this quest to Isao. 

"He is different. His way of thinking is much more advanced than the rest of the people in this world. You can say that it is just a bet from me." 

"...is that so?" 

Felt still felt Ouranos' answer didn't suit him well, but he also could tell that Isao was different from any others, whether it was his strength, intelligence, or even his relationship with many women. 

"Well, if he can't handle this, I am sure that Sword Princess will come to help him." 

"You are right." 

The two knew a lot about Orario, including Isao's romantic relationship. 

"By the way, how is Eina?" 

"I have heard that her body still isn't good." 

"Is she resting well?" 

"She told her coworker that she didn't need to take a rest." 

"Tell her to get a rest. Or rather, tell her to go to the hospital." 

"Do you think that she has a serious illness or something?" 

"No, it's something different, I think." 

"What do you mean?" 

"You will understand soon, but depending on how he handles this quest, my decision will be determined." 

As usual, Ouranos gave an inexplicable answer, which confused Fels, but she had gotten used to being treated like this, so she didn't say much and just waited until her deity told her the answer. 

Only at this moment, Ouranos suddenly heard a gloomy scream that caused despair to many from the dungeon. 

"...don't tell me...." 

Meanwhile, inside the dungeon, on the 25th Floor, or Great Fall, two people stood next to each other as they looked at their work on this Floor. 

"Are you sure that you can summon that monster here?" 

"Yes, believe me! I have done my research for the past five years to summon that monster! As long as I can get that monster, we will be invincible! Believe me!" 

"I hope so."

"Hehehe... you don't have to worry. As long as we can get that monster, we can have our revenge. He might be able to control our people, but can he control a monster?" 

"You are right, but isn't one too little?" 

"Don't underestimate it! All of the main members of the Astraea Familia died five years ago due to this monster! As long as we can get it, then everything is within our hands!" 

"The Astrea Familia is just a weakling of Level 4s. Our opponent is full of Level 5 adventurers, and there are also Level 6 adventurers. Do you think a single monster can handle them?" 

"...if you say it that way..." The man hesitated, but then he said, "But what if we bite more than we can chew? You might be strong, but I am weakling!" 

If there was a mistake, he would be the one who was dying instead of the man beside him! 

"You don't have to worry. I am strong. Your job is just to tame it. We will get as much as possible and create an army of it." 

"...if you are confident, then do it." 

"Good. You should work hard, too, or else you will die." 

"You don't have to worry." 

"Then, let's do it." 

"It's coming!" 

BOOOOOM! BOOOOOM! BOOOOOM! BOOOOOM! BOOOOOM!

Several explosions happened, and everything collapsed. Everything on the 25th Floor crumbled, and it spread everywhere, causing panic to many people inside. 

"Wh-What's happening?" 

"Earthquake?" 

"Let's run! Let's go back to the surface!" 

Yet, as everything within the 25th Floor collapsed, the dungeon also appeared to be crying, seemingly hurt by the destruction, and at the same time, the two people, along with all the followers, who watched everything from a safe distance, saw a being that brought despair and sorrow to many. 

"It's here! Hahaha! It's here! Here it comes! Gale Wind, I will kill you with this!" 

"Hmm... It's stronger than I imagined, but it is good. We can use this." 

As the two were in cherry moods, everyone behind them trembled in fear, wondering what kind of atrocity they had seen. 

---

"Earthquake?" 

The next day, as they arrived on the 18th Floor, Riveri, Isao, Daphne, Cassandra, and Ryuu noticed the tremble within the dungeon as if it was hit by an earthquake. For them, this trip to the 18th Floor was an easy one, especially when this wasn't their first time, and they also had risen their level to Level 3. 

"Has such a thing happened before?" Daphne asked with doubt. 

"There... should be, right? After all, there is a volcanic mountain near Orario." 

"Well, it's good that it only happened for a short moment." 

Frankly, Isao would be lying if he wasn't nervous since if the dungeon was destroyed by the earthquake, it wouldn't be funny. At the same time, he realized that his survival ability wasn't as strong as he imagined since he was buried deep into the earth, could he escape? 

He could, but it might take a long time, he thought. 

Still, it might be hard to save Daphne, Cassandra, and Ryuu unless he took them inside the Infinity Castle. 

'I should have gotten a teleportation ability or something in the world of Rakudai.' 

In the world of Rakudai, he only replicated the Blazers within the academy and those within Tokyo. Outside of the city or the country, he hadn't replicated those Blazers, as many things happened during his stay there. 

Still, among all the abilities he had, if he wanted to escape, he would use his gravity manipulation to push away everything or use the ability of Tatsuya to erase those who wanted to bury him alive. 

Nevertheless, the chance of the dungeon being destroyed was almost null as it was a living being. 

Yup, Isao knew that a dungeon was a living being, something that existed within this world, a mystery that even the deity wasn't sure what it was. 

If the dungeon was destroyed, then it would recover on its own. 

An example would be when someone breaks the wall of the dungeon, and it would recover on its own soon. 

Frankly, Isao could replicate the DNA of the dungeon, but then, he was afraid that he would be shut down for many years or even thousands of years to replicate it, so he refrained himself from doing so. 

Still—

"Are you okay, Ryuu?" 

"Ha?" Ryuu quickly awoken when she heard Isao's voice. "I-I am okay." While she said so, she appeared so nervous. 

"What's wrong?" Isao asked with confusion. 

"No, nothing." Ryuu shook her head and said, "Let's meet our ally and do our quest as soon as possible." After saying that, she walked toward the pub where they would meet their ally. 

"If you say so." Isao frowned, but he didn't say anything. 

"She was too uptight," Daphne said with a frown. 

 "Yeah, it feels like she is being tied down by something," Cassandra said worriedly. 

"She isn't a pervert like you." Isao only glanced at Cassandra helplessly. 

"I-I am not a pervert!" Cassandra blushed and quickly admonished him as he talked about her kink during this type of situation. 

"....." Daphne was speechless and felt a bit sad as she was being left behind by the two with their new game. "...can I join later when we get back?" 

"......" 2x

Isao took a deep breath, then asked, "By the way, Cassandra, did you have a bad dream last night?" 

"No, I slept well last night." Cassandra slept very well last night, especially when she met Isao in the middle of the night. 

"Is that so?" Isao felt strange since Cassandra had a good dream, but since she didn't have a nightmare, everything should be okay, right?

"You guys, hurry up!"

When Ryuu noticed the three didn't follow her, she couldn't help but urge them. 

"Yes, yes." 3x

With Ryuu's reminder, the four of them quickly found the pub, and as expected, they were called by someone. 

"Huh? Iinuma-kun? What are you doing here?"
