Volume 1 Last Chapter: "Back to the Surface" "Me, a... hero?" "Yes. I was sealed here so that I could serve you.. There are others like me, sealed, waiting for you to release them, as I was told. And then, we shall destroy the human race." Ah, crap. My head hurts... "...Wait a sec." I pushed my temples with my hands, restraining myself. "What's wrong?" "I'm still a Hero in the end. Is that OK? I need to put that out first." "Yes, I am aware. You are a Hero." "Right? Then, I can't just destroy humanity, right?" I have no idea what that goddess will do if I do that. If she snaps she could just end my existence there and then. "Yes, but as I said that is your goal." "I haven't heard of a hero that wipes out the human race!" "?" Leadred tilted her head　slightly. ...I don't think we're connecting... She also recognizes I'm a hero. Maybe, her definiti...

Chapter 12: "Hero" This is the second time I've seen this darkness. Coming here twice in one day- it's not my day, even though I'm feeling pretty good. "And? Are you going to kill me again?" I tried to turn my head towards the one who tried to kill me before. Oh? I can't move my head. Then, my body... Nope, I can't move. "No," Unlike before, the girl denied, and made a smile. "Thank you." "...Huh?" The unexpected gratitude made me make a stupid sound. "Thank you, I'm grateful. "No no no! You saying that makes me all the more unsafe!" "Thanks. Really, thank you." This time, she lowered her head. ...What is this. What a weirdo. ...But, she might not be a bad person as I thought she was. Afte that traumatic experience... This time I'll act more mature! "Thank you." "It's fine, don't worry about it." "Really?" "Yeah." "Then, die....

Chapter 11: "Kill" I closed in after that one strike. I came in past the border where she couldn't hit me-- "Wha-!?" Unexpectedly, confusion ran inside. For now, we need to dodge. And yet, Hamakaze didn't move, just like a statue. Did she get done in by the Oni's bloodthirst!? "Jump to the side!!" I shouted as loud as I can, unable to move my body as well. Through "Absolute Order", Hamakaze jumped to the right unconsciously as I did. The shockwave from the sword hit the walls of the dungeon and burst. The wall remained undamaged, but there was the sound of an explosion. "Kuh!" It was a sound so loud it could've burst my eardrums, but I took notice of the girl fallen down on my side. "Get yourself together, Hamakaze!" "I'msorryI'msorryI'msorryI'msorryI'msorry" Hamakaze couldn't hold her conscience. She's just like a frightened child. Dammit, she lost it. "As expected o...

Chapter 10: "The Fight Begins" "Like... A human?" There was a person. If it was a regular dungeon, it wouldn't be odd. There's a class called "Explorer" as well. However, they wouldn't be where we're at. Especially since we're in the unknown 60th floor. If what Hamakaze said a moment ago　was true it would be a turn for the better. Probably, the answer was no. "Yes. If it is a human then you might be able to talk to them." "Yeah, it would be nice if it goes well." If they don't have any hostility they won't attack. I'm pretty sure if some unknown person came in and started attacking, they would unmistakenably try to kill me. "If it was sealed that tightly there must have been a good reason." "That's... Right." "However, we can't throw away the possibility- even though that's very slim." I took a deep breath. "Anyhow, the thing that killed me should be the key...

Chapter 9: "Dying" Darkness. Pitch black. It's dark. It's the only way I can describe this place. There's no ground. I'm floating. If I try to put in any strength, some sort of force is putting me down. "Welcome, hero." As I point my body towards the voice, I see a girl. Her long black hair hid her face. She's in the middle of the darkness and yet you can see the jet black dress she's wearing. She reached out her hand, and walked towards me. In that moment, something happened. Murderous intent without regret flowed out. The girl broadly　smirked. "Welcome back. And, good day." The cold sweat couldn't stop dripping down. My head is telling me to run, over and over. But, I can't move. My body feels as if it's bound by rocks. "Who-Who are you!?" I managed to raise a question. However, she didn't answer. She was only smiling. It was nothing short of a lunatic laugh from a devil. Each step she takes closed...

Chapter 8: "The Sixth Time" Hamakaze and I reached the 60th floor. I think four days have passed, although my senses are a bit fuzzy. To put it simply, floors 52 to 59 were a pain. One part was the dungeon; the other Hamakaze Juri. After that, I had to increase Hamakaze's Statuses. First I had her kill monsters which I almost killed, and through that she increased her level. In the middle Hamakaze became impatient, and desired to fight. She thinks that if she's not useful she would be thrown away. A good trait for a slave stuck on her. At the end, it was astounding. Without me laying a finger, Hamakaze would strike upon encounter. In the next moment they would be turned into dust, and it happened over and over. Hamakaze outleveled me, but　if she would have an attitude or rebelled I could just release her from the contract. I figured out something new from my Special Ability. If I released the magic from "Wight King", the revived creature would go back t...

Chapter 7: "The Real Thing" We, who were dumbfounded by what just happened, were pulled back to reality by the sound of crumbling. Looking over, a part of the wall broke down, revealing the staircase down. I see. So this was where the path to the 52nd floor was hidden. It'll be like this again, probably. Up to the 50th floor the staircases were already found, so onwards the conditions to progressing might be different. If that's so... That's pretty depressing... "Wha-Wha-Wha...!" As I glanced at the classmate clutching on to me, her expression was something I couldn't really express. "...What is it?" "What is it?! It's this power! Are you a monster?!" The magic I used, "Berserk Tempest", was an Imperial-rank magic. Magic has different ranks; from the strongest they are God-rank, Imperial-rank, Ancient-rank, Royal-rank, Soul-rank and Spirit-rank. From Imperial-rank, they require a lot of Magic, soo they're no...

Chapter 6: "Slaves and Magic and True Skill" "H-Huh? I'm... alive? Didn't I die?" Her words were trembling. Without batting an eye to me directly in front, she checked her own body. ...Deja vu. "Oi, are you alright?" I can't just stand here with her. If more monsters come it would be a pain. I don't have time to waste. And so, I called out to her and stretched out my hand. In any case, she probably would just insult me. And then I would punish her, ... Or so I thought. "Ah... Y-yes..." Hamakaze replied, with her cheeks turning red. As she stood up, grasping my hand, she blankly stared at me. Just like a maiden in love. ...Nonono, I can't be saying that. "U-Um!" "Yes?" "I-I'm Hamakaze Juri. Um... May I know your name?" "...Huh?" What is she asking? Doesn't she know I'm Katsuragi Daichi? "U-Umm, do you not want to? I'm s-sorry." Hamakaze, humbly averting her ...

Chapter 5: "Revenge of the Resented" Katsuragi Daichi, 16 years old. Who thought he was dead, was living. No no no! "...What's the meaning of this?" I'm confused. I woke up in such a mess, that the information got jumbled up. Let's fix that. Calm down. It's times like this where a deep breath helps. Hnggg- No wait, I'm not pregnant! Breathe in... Breathe out. ...Alright, let's get this straight. Whether this is Rostalsia, or another world similar to it. Good thing there's a really simple way for me to quickly check. To speak those words. "Open." And it appeared silently in front of my eyes. 　＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝ Katsuragi Daichi  Class: Hero  Level 2 Stamina: 1300 Magic: 2520 Physical:3400 Endurance：2600 Wit：1400 Special Abilities： "Steel Heart" During battle, Endurance increases.

Chapter 4: "Unnecessary Bait" "Spirits of water, become bullets that shoot the game! Splash Gatling!" Bullets of water form midair. They drop on the Rigals. The others around me do the same in succession; it cleaned up most of them but cost us a lot of Magic. Even so, there are monsters still surrounding us. "Dammti! There are too many!" "Everyone! Calm down!" "Hurry up and shoot more magic! We're making a path to the exit!" Shouts fly about the room. The monsters and classmates became jumbled up together. We triggered the Monster House, and cause a group of us to panic. "Those nearby the entrance, open up a way! Do whatever it takes!" "Spirits of the flame,! Burn our enemies to ashes! Burning Wave!" "Spirits of the wind! Cut us a path! Sonic Wave!" The students near the entrance listened to my orders and started casting their strongest magic spells one by one. Waves of fire and wind burn and slice thr...

Chapter 3: "Monster House" "Rigal's Den" was a dungeon for beginners. There are many dungeons around the world, but this one apparently is the one everyone starts in. There are a bunch of reasons for this; first of all the monsters that come out have low levels. Second, the special monsters here, Rigals, give a lot of experience. The vanguard already started to fight. "Spirits of the wind, blow everything away! Wind!" The winds blew by a female student's magic, and stopped three of the Rigals' advance. A Rigal is a monster that looks like a scorpion that's five times the size. Its body is protected　by a tough carapace, so physical attacks are ineffective. However, it's weak to Fire-attribute magic. Evern the weakest Fire-attribute magic, Fireball, is able to defeat it. Even though I can't even use that yet. "Spirits of the flame, burn everything! Fireball!" Samejima shot three Fireballs at the Rig...
