Man of Dungeon

13. Uncle, Hidden Boss and Encount

(Diclo...... sure, the Demon King ranks on the boss list are Rodera, Rafandal, Nova Ark, and Crusaded Andima.... Diclo wasn't even on it)

"Sarah... what if this guy's the hidden boss?

"Seems so"

"I didn't know there was such a guy..."

"Oh, yes...... right"

I'm also next door to Jisan.

He seems to be in a slightly more complicated mood.

"Is it possible not to challenge a challenger or ask a question"

"Whatever. What you've done so far by spotting warp floor tricks is commendable. But most of those who arrived here would not have visited for me. It would not be” fair ”to a boulder to fight a Demon King class in an accident."

(Warp floor trick? I don't remember solving that...)

With that in mind, I realize that DiClo has emphasized the word ”fair”.

That reminds Gisan.

There are two messages from AI at the start of the game. This message is politely viewable at any time from the menu window.

< The game is fair. I tried to design it that eliminated irrationality. I hope you enjoy it fully >

< Don't be preconceived. Paradigm Shift is the key to completing this game >

Diclo meant exactly that he was claiming this former.

Jisan thinks.

I can die, so I don't have a problem trying.

But...

"Sarah... he's not a Tame target, is he?

"Looks like a target"

(... Holy shit!?

Are you saying that bosses on the list are not eligible for Tame, but hidden bosses can be eligible?

"But, Master... with current Tame weapons, the success rate is not so high"

"Right. Tame, what happens if you fail?

"After a certain period of time, monsters with the same settings will come back to life (repop) in some hidden room. However, the reward is only the first time."

(... right)

The phrase "of the same setting” is hooked. Does that mean ”another being”?

"... let's stop it"

"Okay! Master!"

Sarah says happily. I didn't want to be disturbed.

On the other hand, Jisan thinks. This time, it was a coincidence in coincidence that I was able to discover Diclo. It's impossible to look for hidden rooms all over Japan again.

It would be more sensible to get a Tame weapon that has a better chance of being captured and then come back here again.

"Accepted. Unchallenged but also broken..."

Dicro says that.

"Hmm...? Would that mean challenging?

"Huh..."

(Hmm...?

Sarah turns sideways so that she can only look like Dicro, and says in a more great tone than usual as she nibbles. No, rather this is her usual tone.

Diclo mumbles in agony.

"Then let's go home! Master."

Sarah turns her back on Dicro so that she returns her heels and walks out.

"Oh... right"

The two return to the ground on the warp floor, which emerged from the moment they decided to withdraw.

At that time, Jisan was thinking.

Sarah's class is the Great Demon King...... Could this guy be... "Hidden Boss”?

◇ ◇ ◇

Days of relaxing dungeon tours by Jisan and Sarah then continue for a while. When the two of them are touring the hockey doe dungeons, some events occur in the public.

It occurs when Gisan and Sarah encounter Diclo and roughly a year later, after the party "Moon Maru Squad" crusades the Fourth Demon King Andima, a demon king breakdown that has not been realized for some time continues to stand.
