“…You’re not even injured?”
As I stepped out of the elevator, I was greeted by the glasses girl, the acne guy, and the mole guy—all staring at me with wide eyes, as if they couldn’t believe what they were seeing.
I mean, they did see me pick difficulty [1] earlier, so I guess their shock makes sense.
“Well, the thing is…”
Just as I was about to dramatically unsheathe my sword and show off a little—perfect timing to flaunt my strength—
“I-I’ll go next…”
“…”
The short-haired girl slipped right into the elevator.
Wait—hello? You’re just gonna leave before hearing the explanation?
Anyway, with her having chosen [20], she disappeared from sight, leaving only [25] on the board.
That means the remaining two could probably split it between [12] and [13] to finish the stage.
“So… uh, I’m actually pretty strong.”
Whoosh!
I took a stance and slashed at the air, fast and sharp enough to cause a threatening sonic snap.
Back in the tutorial and on the fourth floor, this move alone would’ve been enough to impress.
“…Ohhh.” 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
“Nice.”
But for some reason, their reactions were lukewarm.
Wait, are you seriously not appreciating the artistry behind that slash?
There were like, three different techniques layered into that move alone—
“But… maybe I could handle [20] too?”
Hah.
So now it’s not that I’m strong, but that the mole guy was just weak?
The acne guy, clearly still dazed, muttered nonsense without thinking.
“Hey.”
“…Y-Yeah?”
“Shut your mouth.”
“…”
I grabbed his wrist and gave it a firm squeeze.
That finally shut him up.
I swear, if he picks a harder difficulty just because I threatened him a little…
