Chapter 18 – Search for the Fragment! The Stream of Floating Prohibition

“You havеn’t been flоаting аt аll lаtеly, Mаster~”

※”Thеrе she is! Тhе mаsсоt, Little Flоta!” “Нer voiсе is sо сute~”

“Ehh, rеallу? Ufufu, thank you~”

“Тhе Grimoire is getting flusterеd.”

※”Littlе Spice’s voicе is сute too, so heаring bоth at onсe mеlts mу brаin~” “I wish thеy’d do ASMR tоgether.”

Нmm, thаt аpprоасh…

“Mastеr, what is ASМR?”

“Our topic аbоut Levitatiоn wеnt cоmpletеly off traсk, but let mе еxplain! ASMR is likе a sеrviсе wherе they whisреr nеar yоur eаr аnd stuff. It mеlts уоur brain аnd уоu die~”

“Ееk! A mental attack!!”

※”Lying to the newbies, lol” “Little Spice has a fun personality!” “Huh, so that’s what ASMR is?” “Scary” “Hey stop it, the kids are believing it!!”

You shouldn’t just believe everything you see on the internet, boys and girls~.

“So, about the reason I’m not floating at all today~. If I float, you’d see my panties, so until I get a Fragment, I won’t float~. It’s a self-imposed restriction.”

※”Float!” “Fly, fly!”

“I’d get BANned! No way! I can’t do it~!”

While bantering back and forth with the Comment Section, I proceeded to clear the Dungeon.

With this many Concurrent Viewers, it doesn’t feel like a particularly high Difficulty Dungeon.

After passing through the Goblin zone, I entered the Orc zone next.

Orcs are those upright, muscular pig monsters.

Oink! Oink oink! Oink oink oink!

“Too noisy! I’ll rip off this sliding door… Hiyah! Fly away, Accel!!”

The spinning sliding door went flying, sweeping up the Orcs.

Ughwaa!!

※”Nice!!” “That Magic seems pretty handy” “If you threw a weapon, it’d be strong!”

“About weapons~. The visuals would get too splattery~. Spice’s Streams are a bit more peaceful, I think~. Oh, new enemies! Alrighty, rip off a door! Go!! Accel!”

※”Peaceful…?” “Oh right! Throwing big stuff is cooler!” “Go!!”

The age demographic of the comments is quite young!!

Maybe the Streamers I’ve watched until now were just biased, but Twippy seems to have a lot of energetic, young-seeming Listeners.

I need to be careful not to get swept along by the Listeners’ comments…!

Pushing forward like that, I arrived at the problematic area.

It was the married couple’s bedroom, which was the origin of this Dungeon…

The couple had undergone Grudge Spirit Transformation, merging with the bed and wheelchair, taking on a machine-insect-like appearance.

And when they spotted me, their eyes lit up, they shrieked Kishaa!! and came attacking.

“Whoa! That’s a tasteless design!! Who remodeled them like this?!”

I yelled while retreating to another room.

The Grudge Spirit couple was large and not very maneuverable, so they passed by the front of that room temporarily.

“So, did everyone notice?”

※”Scary!” “That was super dangerous” “What, that Grudge Spirit, its appearance is seriously messed up” “Notice what?” “Ah, there’s another one deeper inside!”

“Right, right! This place, the couple’s house became a Dungeon, right? So the Dungeon Boss should be the Grudge Spirit couple… But the reason Spice came here was because a Fragment was stuck in a Demon’s butt~”

※”Ah” “There’s a Demon!” “Why is it there?”

“Yes, that’s it!”

I dashed out of the room and leaped into the bedroom before the Grudge Spirit couple returned.

Deep inside the bedroom, that Demon was there.

In a hunched posture, glaring at Spice.

Its appearance was like a purple Gargoyle.

Gugyogyogyogyo…!

It’s said that Demons are what happen when a Dungeon Boss Grudge Spirit evolves further.

They’re more powerful than Grudge Spirits, and you get more Dungeon Core when you defeat them.

But, this guy, it’s not the couple, right?

“Why is this guy here?”

“In other words~, the cause of the Dungeonization wasn’t the couple, but this Demon’s doing, right~? Oh dear~? Something smells fishy~!”

※”Little Flota’s famous deductions begin” “It’s true!” “So that Demon is the real villain!?” “We have to defeat it!”

When floating and the panty-shot element are gone, the rowdier faction in the comments quiets down…

The comments are all tame now.

But, that actually makes things easier right now.

Here, I prepare the bargain ballpoint pen set I bought at the 100-yen shop, Idoo.

Gyowaa!!

The Demon attacks!

“Float, Float! And intercepting fire, Accel!!”

Five floating ballpoint pens.

I flick their ends one after another.

Then, the pens shot forward with tremendous force.

Three missed.

But two hit the Demon!

Gyoaaa!!

Taking damage, the Demon’s lunge slowed.

I dash to the side!

I see it, the Demon’s butt!!

But immediately, the Demon turns towards me, so I can’t see its butt anymore…

Uooo! I’m over here! Your butt is wide open!!

Flota yelled from the opposite direction.

Well done!

Gyo!?

The Demon flusteredly turns that way.

Yes, I can see its butt!

Simultaneously with my jump…

“Forward, Accel!!”

I accelerated!

My hand reaches the Fragment on the Demon’s butt!

And a perfect catch!

Then I crash into the Demon’s butt!

“Ughwaa!”

Ughwaa!!

The Demon and I both went flying.

While flying, I’m opening the Grimoire’s operation screen.

While tumbling head over heels, I… overlay the new Fragment onto the Slot where the Metamorphose Fragment is stuck… and in!

The display changed to Metamorphose Fragment 2.

“Ouch ouch… Will it work…? Metamorphose Spice… Spats!”

Then…

A pish sound, like something tightening under the skirt.

This is it!

※”Aah~” “What a letdown” “Well, spats are spats…”

The pervert gentlemen, the Peppers, are back!

Seems like it was a success.

Now I’ve avoided the danger of freezing or BAN!

“Master, that aside, the Grudge Spirits are coming back! It’s still one versus three~!”

“That aside. For now, let’s rejoice that I can float without worry! Alright then, now with all my emotions poured into it… Levitation!”

As my feet floated up gently, the Grudge Spirits that leaped in and the Demon that lunged collided beneath me, letting out a Ughwaa!? cry.
