Episode 460 The Devil's Shift
As I enter the mid-boss room, the swarming vines begin to move more violently. The tree dragon seemed to have noticed me. The room is a large, fishcake-shaped structure, perhaps a little smaller than a soccer court.
The "Crash Ball II" was activated for a quick check, and a high-speed vibrating ball was released toward the tree dragon. Several tendrils were swung at the high-speed vibrating ball.
The moment the vine and the high-speed vibration ball come into contact, a spatial vibration wave is radiated and a destructive space is formed. It severed only a few surrounding vines, but did little damage.
The length of the vines did not seem to be constant. Three long vines swung down at me. I activated the "high blade" of the sevenfold activation and swung the huge blade formed by the D-particles toward the vines as if to reap them.
Three vines are severed in the middle and fall to the floor. I stare at the severed but still wiggling vines. It seems that I can't do much damage unless I can hit the tree dragon's trunk with my magic. Immediately, I activate my "Burst Shotgun" with a sevenfold activation and release thirty small detonation piles.
Vines try to knock down small detonation piles. Ten or twenty of them are knocked down and explode due to the attack by the vines. Two of the piles slip through and hit the trunk of the tree dragon, which explodes.
It may have been small damage for a giant tree dragon, but I saw a chance to win. I knew that if I launched a saturation attack, I could defeat this monster.
Tree dragon vines are nasty, but this demon cannot move. A saturation attack should be enough to win. I once again activate the "Burst Shotgun" with a sevenfold activation and release 30 small detonation piles.
Moving quickly, he released another 30 small detonation piles from a different angle. The D-particle jet shells fly while sucking in and compressing the air along the way.
The tree dragon swung its vines like crazy and tried to knock down the small detonation piles. But some of the vines that slipped through hit the tree dragon's trunk and exploded.

The leading D-particle jet shell was knocked off by the vine attack, scattering high-heat plasma around it. Not much damage was done.
But the last D-particle jet shell that was released slipped through and hit the tree dragon's trunk. Magnetism is generated, enveloping the tree dragon's trunk, and the compressed air diffuses into plasma as it explodes. The super-heated plasma envelops the tree dragon and burns it to a crisp.
The magnetism that had enveloped the tree dragon disappeared and the hot wind blew in our direction. I stood back and waited for the result. When the hot air ceased, the tree dragon was gone.
Congratulations."
As Elmore came out of the shadows, Métis' voice echoed in his head.
Then we'll look for the drops."
Tamegoro, Taabo, Geronta, and Hakuro were also sent out to look for drops. Taabo found a white magic stone
Thank you."
Then I stroked Taabo's head. Then, Taa-bo seemed to be happy.
Next, Geronta brought a book. Apparently, it was a book on magical technology. Next, Tamegoro found a knife. First, he examined the knife with an appraisal monocle.
It was labeled 'magic-disabling knife.' If this had been a sword, I would have been happy to use it as a weapon to fight demons, but a knife has too short a reach.
Next, I examined the magical technology book. I flipped through the pages

The title was "D-particle immobilization technology.
This seems to be a technique to immobilize D-particles into various shapes. Even with living magic, it is possible to form D-particles into various shapes, but they quickly fall apart.
The technology was that once immobilized, it would continue to exist in the same form semi-permanently. The D-particle fiber manufacturing equipment we had acquired earlier seemed to be based on this technology.
This was the only dropped item.
Get the fruit of your talent."
Yes."
We headed to the back of the middle boss room and through a passageway into a small room. There was a tree growing there. It resembled a kumquat tree, with small fruit.
Most of them are unripe white berries. And there is one brightly colored berry. It was the green-colored fruit of life magic. I gently picked it and put it in a ring-case-like container I had prepared and stored it in my magic pouch.
The fruit of the gift of life magic.
'Then I think it would be better to have Yukari eat it.
Yukari's life magic talent was a 'C', which means it would be a 'B'. Even if I ate it, the 'F' would only become an 'E', so Yukari would be appropriate.
Feeling a little disappointed, I moved from the fifth level transfer room to the tenth level.
How about an overnight stay in the Transfer Room?"
I don't think I was tired myself, but I thought I should follow Metis' advice and get some rest before fighting the middle boss on the tenth layer.
If it is resurrected, the opponent is the devil. I thought it would be better to be cautious and decided to do only reconnaissance today. So we headed to the middle boss's room for reconnaissance.
The middle boss room is on the next mountain, so I flew with the D-particle wing. I landed on the next mountain and proceeded down the passage leading to the middle boss room.
'Even from here, I can feel the signs. It's definitely coming back.'
I nodded and then looked into the room. Then I saw a demon in a red costume inside.
That's not the same Amaimon we fought last time, is it?"
'Let's check it out with the demonology goggles.'
As a result of my research, I found out that he is "Oriens," the prince of demons. It seems that he is a demon who specializes in fire magic.
I tilted my head, unconvinced.
Why not Amaimon, why not Oriens?"
'Come on, it could have been a shift.
Oh no, this isn't a part-time job at a convenience store."
Perhaps she heard me, Oriens turned around and stared me in the face. It was a look that would give anyone the creeps. I turn back to the transporter room to discuss the plan with Metis.
