A normal Cyclops is about five meters tall, but the monster in front of me looks to be about eight meters tall. Moreover, it has a large shield and sword.

　Although they have one thing in common, namely, they are monocular and giants, they seem to be different in other ways. The monster swings a huge sword down toward Amane. Amane launches a Seventh Auger Push toward the sword, launching the auger plate.

　Thunderbird Push" can also be used, but in the spur of the moment, the familiar "auger push" is more likely to come out.

　The auger plate collided with the sword and deflected its trajectory. Amane thought he could bounce it back, but the monster's power seemed more tremendous than expected.

　The sword dips to the ground and stops. Amane activates "Crash Ball" and sends a D-particle vibration ball flying toward the monster's chest. It seemed to notice this, and it thrust out its shield and popped it.

　The D-particle vibration ball that was bounced radiated a spatial vibration wave that punctured the shield but did not damage the monster's huge body. Seeing this, Amane used the quint catapult to throw the body right up.

　The magic was released in mid-air, activating a quint cold shot and releasing a D-particle cooling pile into the monster's head. It was aimed at the head, but the D-particle cooling pile was slightly deflected and penetrated the ear, causing the stopper to open and tear the ear off.

　The pain caused the monster to scream. It became a sound pressure that hurt Amane's eardrums. Amane landed on the ground using the "airbag" and moved with a frown.

　The monster chased after it. When it felt the killing intent and turned around, it was trying to reave Amane's body with its sword. Once again, the quint catapult throws the body straight up.

　He activates the "Burst Shotgun" with a fivefold activation and shoots thirty small detonation piles from the monster's head to its chest. The monster tried to defend itself with a huge shield, but it lost its balance as it tried to raise the shield in a sword-cleaving stance.

　Then, 30 small detonation piles struck him. The aim was off due to a loss of balance, but the small detonation piles pierced through from the shoulder to the chest and exploded.

　Amane, intuiting that this would not be enough to finish it off, activated the "Crash Ball" in succession and scattered D-particle vibration balls. One of the balls hit the monster in the chest.

　A spatial vibration wave penetrates the monster's chest.

We have to finish him off here.

　After landing on the ground using the "airbag," Amane activates the "Blow Up Glaive," a quintuple activation. A huge D-particle weapon is formed and its blade is swung down at the giant neck.

　The deeply wounded monster could not cope with its speed. A blade similar to a western cleaver, the glaive, slashed at the monster in an exaggerated manner. The blade bit into its lungs, stopping it and causing it to explode.

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

　The monster's body splits in two and disappears in pieces.

Ha ha ha ...... what was this monster?"

　We hurry to find the drops because Cyclops may be gathering. We find and collect the Cyclops' magic stone and the monster's magic stone, plus a ring and a book.

"Maybe it's a grimoire?　If so, don't ...... start reading books in a place like this, it's dangerous."

　Amane put away the dropped items and hurried to catch up with Maejima and the others. He activated "Wing" and when the D-particle wing formed, he quickly attached the saddle, straddled it, and jumped up.

　I flew along the path that I thought Maejima and the others had taken. When he was halfway to the stairs, he saw Maejima and the others. Amane circled around in front of them and landed.

I'm glad you're okay. You're safe."

　Yulia ran up to take Amane's hand and shouted with joy. Maejima and the others were also pleased.

Did you beat Cyclops?"

Yes, we defeated all of them. But there was a Titan that was one size bigger than Cyclops, and I had to fight him off with my hands.

lack of help

I was just trying to get a good idea of what to expect."

　Maejima and the others tilt their heads.

I've never heard of such a monster on the seventeenth layer, but I guess it has no lodgings.

Maybe so."

　Amane and his friends began to return to the ground. After two encampments on the way back to the ground, they headed for the Adventurers' Guild. They wanted to report about the monster.

　Amane reported to the receptionist and was called by the branch manager. When she went to the branch manager's office, she found Branch Manager Kondo and Kato waiting for her.

I heard you fought a giant you've never seen before, what kind of demon was it?"

　When Amane explained in detail, the branch manager nodded.

That's Polyphemos. "That's Polyphemos, a giant from Greek mythology.

(used with suffix -san or -sama) endearing term for unrelated older woman

It was named after a demon, but it was supposed to be a rare demon. If you beat it, the drop must have been awesome."

　I didn't have to answer, but I decided to report it because it was something that would be noticed if I registered the magic of the grimoire with the Magical Agency. Amane takes out a ring and a book.

Is it a grimoire?"

　The branch manager looks surprised.

　After returning to the ground, I glanced at the contents and saw that it was a grimoire. Amane smiled happily.

Yes, it was a grimoire of grant magic. Could you appraise the ring over here?"

　Amane hands the ring to Kato. Kato appraised it with "Item Analyze".

This ring is the 'Ring of Fudo Myoo'. It has the effect of increasing power sixfold."

That's some serious magic equipment."

　The branch manager said. It's certainly great, but we'll have to see if it's easy to use, Amane thought.

　When I returned to Maejima and the others after the report, they had just finished exchanging unneeded magic stones. They had decided to take the magic stones used for grant magic to the laboratory, and it seemed that they had exchanged the yellow magic stones for cash.

Amane-chan, are you done talking with the branch manager?"

　Amane nodded in response to Julia's question.

I'm done. Yes, I will give you Sogin."

　Amane handed Sogin in a leather bag to Maejima. This amount would be enough for three years of seminar use.

　The day after Amane returned from the Suigetsu dungeon, I was relaxing at the mansion when Alisa and four others visited me.

'Sir, the grimoire. I got a grimoire."

　After receiving an explanation from an excited Amane, I learned that he had defeated a giant demon called Polyphemus in the Suigetsu dungeon and obtained a ring and grimoire.

　Since Amane could not read magical letters, Alisa and I decided to work together to translate them. Alisa had studied magical letters at university and was able to read them.

Amane is lucky."

　Yukari said enviously. Arisa and Chika nodded.

How does it feel to fight such a big man?"

　When I asked, Amane thought about it and then replied that it was difficult to fight because of the small distance the "catapult" had to travel.

　I've been thinking about that too. The "catapult" has a travel distance of 10 meters, but that is not enough when fighting large demons.

We'll come up with some new magic about that."

What did Dr. Grimm do?"

After we went to get the coiled peaches, I was researching amphibious vehicles."

　Alisa looks at me.

Of course, you ate it. You don't look any different."

I had a fever when I ate them, but they look the same as they do when they're young," he said. It was just an incredibly tasty peach."

　Alisa and the others looked at each other. They had heard it was delicious and were ready to go get it.

The slug meadows are a problem to get to."

　I nodded to Alisa's words.

That got me thinking about amphibious vehicles."

　Amane, who was listening, suggested that if we studied the grimoire, there might be magic that could be used for amphibious vehicles. Since this was a good possibility, Alisa and I decided to go ahead with the translation of the grimoire.
