Gacha Game Girls Are Obsessed With Me

Today’s climbing goal is the 12th floor.

From Area 1 to Area 5.

This time, I have prepared a new tool.

“Is this a saw for lumberjacking?”

“That’s right. With the spider webs getting thicker and thicker, it seemed inconvenient to use scissors.”

It’s almost embarrassing to refer to it as spider ‘webs.’

There were chunks hanging down as thick as my forearm.

Of course, the saw isn’t as easy to use as scissors, but it can be more useful for cutting through thick stuff.

Also, there was a scene I wanted to see.

“Saha?”

“Ugh….”

“Saha~?”

“Ugh…! Wh-why did you call for me?”

Mhhm…!

Every time I call her name, she flinches and unnecessarily tries to cover her chest with her arm.

This is truly delightful.

It seemed like a slight look of disdain was coming from beside me, but I decided not to worry about it.

“Could you swing this around once?”

This is a specially made double-up size super big saw for Saha!

Saha carefully picked up the saw that had fallen to the ground (which I struggled to lift).

Then, she infused it with magic, igniting the blade with flames.

“Oh wow! That’s so cool!”

“Woof!”

As if turning her embarrassment into her strength,

Saha gracefully lifted the saw and smoothly sliced through the spider webs in just a few strokes.

A doom girl wearing nothing but a bikini instead of armor!

Movements full of love and romance!

I couldn’t contain my amazement and applauded.

Saha’s face turned a little redder.

At the forefront of Saha’s doom girl performance,

Today’s dungeon breakthrough formation.

Top. Saha (swimsuit).

Taking on the role of clearing the path while swinging the Fire Hell Flame Super Big Saw (tentative name).

Gradually suppressing her embarrassment, she swung the saw wildly with her usual serious and cold expression and moved with ease.

While watching, I felt that I would have no regrets even if I died.

Mid. Riding-type Arc (operated by Tynia).

Since the ceiling was much higher than the 11th floor, I allowed Tynia, who is shorter, to ride on my shoulders to secure her view and respond immediately.

Her nape felt soft!

Bottom. Arihena.

Just an ordinary bottom duo.

Ari was eating up the CS well.

With stable role assignments, we started to clear the path diligently.

“There are a lot of monsters…”

Muttering, Ari lightly picked up the CS that had fallen from the tower.

Indeed.

The mob density compared to the 11th floor was on a whole different level.

Previously, we would just eliminate groups that were sparsely arranged in rooms or large open spaces.

Now they were popping out from all over— from paths, ceilings, and between walls.

…In fact, the reason I evolved into a riding-type Arc was due to an unfortunate incident a moment ago when a spider dropped from the air and tried to twist my neck 180 degrees.

The difficulty had increased.

And quite threateningly.

But?

What if we change our perspective?

“Hehehe…!”

A drop item multiplier event.

Ingredients are pouring out!

Even in the area leading to the 15th floor, monsters that usually wouldn’t appear sometimes popped their heads out.

However, our hero party, armed with enough power to break through at least to the 20th floor, took them all down.

During that process.

“Nyahaha! Master, you’re doing great!”

I finally started to contribute.

The ‘Mahamonite Pistol’ has a hidden god-tier performance added that isn’t mentioned in the tooltip.

Though its attack power was at the level of a BB gun.

If I shoot a spider with the standard weapon mode?

[Mark of the Penny Pincher LV.1 (Max LV.10)]

[Enemies marked will have their critical resistance reduced by 10%. When an enemy with the mark dies, the drop rate of items increases by 10%.]

This is a debuff on monsters!

And the performance isn’t bad!

So far, our heroes have only managed to get about 10% critical probability from their equipment.

But with this debuff?

Out of 10 shots, 1 will hit critical!

And with the drop rate increase!

Although there are minor side effects…

“Yip──!”

Enemies with the mark have a provocation effect that prioritizes targeting me.

“Rumi!”

“Woof!”

Our jungler, Rumi, swiftly caught the front leg of a jumping spider and slammed it to the ground.

“Nyah!”

And then Tynia shot a magical beam!

Seeing the explosion sparkle a bit more, it was a critical hit!

It was a perfect team fight.

Let’s keep this going!

* * *

When the same stimulus is given continuously at the same intensity, the senses eventually become dulled.

However.

“Aah, eek, aaah…!”

The insane party of heroes provided new and fresh stimuli to Araklene every time they came.

Yesterday, they had cut with a peculiar blade that crossed two edges.

It was still a bit stinging at that moment, making it bearable.

I thought I had perfectly prepared by raising the hardness of my thread to a level couldn’t be cut by mere metal.

Yet.

“Th-that…! Aah, aaah…! What the hell is that…!”

The heroes’ new weapon, the surface of the gigantic blade, looked as if it was haphazardly carved by a beast.

When a foolhardy knight came dressed in nothing but two scraps of cloth and wielded it,

“Aah…!”

First, a pain like ants biting my toes sequentially welled up.

Plus, the bitten area itched fiercely, tickling my brain.

Squelch, squelch.

It didn’t even take 3 seconds to cut one spider thread.

And it didn’t take even 3 seconds to go for the next spider thread.

[Area 1 of the 12th floor has been breached.]

“Haa, haah, aaah….”

As a demon tasked with the sacred duty of keeping the tower safe, it was quite blasphemous to think,

But I’m glad they breached it, I’m glad this pain is over. Still, they must have summoned many monsters, so it won’t be easy for them.

Thinking such, Araklene was able to take a breath.

However.

[Enemies have entered Area 1 of the 12th floor.]

I was once again flustered by the party of insane heroes that re-entered almost instantly.

“Uh…? Why…? Area 1…?”

In an instant, I summoned 3 hooks.

And then,

The usual pattern──

Instead of a straight line to the exit.

“Nonononono…!”

Watching the heroes begin to thoroughly search the entire labyrinth made Araklene scream.

Moreover, since other areas had many other objects like prey storage and the graves of ancient heroes, it was difficult to place treasure chests there.

I had placed the most treasure chests in Area 1.

Realizing my mistake,

I hurriedly tried to change the settings of the tower.

[You cannot change the arrangement of objects while a seer is present. Please try again later.]

“Ugh… Aah…!”

With the cold message that appeared,

Araklene fell into despair.

* * *

“Woof! There’s one here too!”

Wow.

Is today an event day?

The rewards are great!

With a little exaggeration, treasure chests seemed to be hidden right where you stick your face into the corners.

Of course, some were slyly hidden behind webs or above the ceiling.

“Sniff, sniff! It’s over there!”

We had a master of sense of smell.

Even when playing in the square, the moment I started cooking, she would come over wagging her tail and perked up her ears.

Her name is Rumi Bero!

…She was.

After sniffing the first discovered treasure chest’s scent for about 3 minutes,

She then quickly had a remarkable efficiency.

With a little exaggeration, it almost seemed like whenever Rumi went, treasure chests appeared.

“Rumi, is there anything you want to eat?”

“Woof! Everything that Jju-in makes is delicious!”

How is she so kind with her words?

Of course, not every treasure chest contained good rewards.

Sometimes.

“Aah! Master…! The box bit me…!”

Tynia, filled with greed, jumped off my shoulder to open a treasure chest and got bitten by a mimic.

“Huh…? What’s this?”

“Yahh…?!”

In the treasure chest, there was a single book written in an incomprehensible language that even I couldn’t read.

Perhaps it was in demon language, and upon seeing the book’s title, Tynia had a fit.

“T-Tynia can’t say it…!”

No matter how much I pried, she wouldn’t tell me the name.

It couldn’t be identified through item information either.

I’ll have to ask Elise later.

As for the rest, most of them consisted of──

Large amounts of gold.

Or, growth materials.

Rare ore.

Filled with such valuable things.

While it wasn’t enough to compensate for the losses from yesterday’s full-on power deployment incident,

It was enough to start gradually saving up funds to reopen the store.

In the meantime.

I also tested the pistol’s performance whenever I could.

Would the gold in my inventory count as a ‘held amount’?

Boom!

“Ugh──!”

The spider’s head slightly caved in.

With this level of power, it seems like I could deal a punch-worthy hit rather than just a BB shot.

Keeping an eye on the heroes,

This time, I decided to test out the battle weapon mode as well.

Of course, without being flashy, I held the pistol firmly with both hands.

Fire!

Boom──!

“Ugh.”

Even so, the recoil was quite strong, and my aim wavered.

It ended up missing the intended spider and hitting the innocent wall instead, creating a large hole.

The power is pretty good!

“Arc? You wouldn’t──”

“No, it’s fine. I’m fine.”

As I hastily made an excuse and checked my inventory,

…10% of the cash had dwindled.

The battle weapon mode is sealed for now.

It’s better to save money diligently.

Making planetary destruction-level weapons out of regular mode would be much better.

It’s not like money grows on trees!

“Woof! There’s a treasure chest buried here!”

“Step back. I’ll excavate it.”

…Is that right?

It seems like it might come out if I dig?

Plus.

“Arc! The treasure chest looks unusual!”

At Ari’s words, I approached slightly and looked beneath the pit.

“Oh….”

It looked like a treasure chest that was somewhat different, special, and beautifully designed!

Anticipation surged even more.
