Aw.

Are you already turning back?

Who's there?!

She's emitting such an intense aura… Who is this girl?

Rud, this is bad!

Oh, dear.

Did I set it so that Dark Skeletons would continue to spawn?

Set?

If we get attacked by four of them at once…

She took all of them down in one hit.

I didn't expect...

a demon lord-class guardian would appear.

Demon lord-class?!

I thought I'd already disabled that.

Is this girl the labyrinth guardian?

Surrender yourself to my Demon Eye!

(The Strongest Tank's Labyrinth Raids, A Tank with a Rare 9999 Resistance Skill Got Kicked from the Hero’s Party)

What's with this ridiculously powerful magic?

But I can still handle this much.

You actually managed to get out of that without a status ailment.

God's skill is indeed something.

Are you the guardian of this labyrinth?

Correct.

But you don't seem intimidated by me at all.

After all, you look like a cute girl.

Cute?

My, you have such a way with words.

Don't be fooled, Rud!

She's a 300-year-old granny!

Silence, Marius!

You are but a fallen demon lord!

Marius is my friend.

I ask that you do not harm him.

I see.

The fallen demon lord has joined the likes of humans.

Not exactly.

I simply dislike the rest of you demon lords.

I see…

Regardless...

Do not get in my way, Demon Lord Marius.

You should be aware that you are no match for me.

Marius might not be able to take you down on his own,

but you're up against more than just him.

And?

Your powers are far from those of a demon lord.

It's true that alone, a human's power is nothing to fear.

We can't conquer labyrinths alone.

That is why we form parties.

To raid them together?

Then let's see if you can defeat me, the guardian of the Caird Labyrinth,

Amon Sloth,

with your so-called teamwork.

Foolish humans!

Such powerful magic!

We just have to take her on.

Sacrificial Shield!

Taunt!

Such power…

How dare you hurt my sister!

She deflected it with a tornado.

Even with Taunt, she won't focus only on me.

Although it's impressive, his level of attack won't hurt me at all.

Then we'll keep attacking until we do!

I can easily evade that kind of attack with wind magic…

Don't think you can stay in the air forever!

That hurt!

What a nuisance…

Her physical strength is no joke.

How do we break through?

Don't worry, I can keep up with her.

Is this the extent of your abilities?

Taunt!

What's the matter?

You won't get me with those random attacks.

I'm not attacking randomly.

Flash magic stone!

What's that? It's blinding!

How about that?

What is that?

Is this tempest the result of the magic overflow from earlier?

It appears I was careless.

My apologies.

Nin, heal everyone up.

Got it.

I'll also cast some buffs. Gather around, everyone.

That girl is on an entirely different level from the monsters we've faced before.

Yeah.

But as long as we stand united, no monster is our match.

I will fight hard for Master and Lady Manicia.

Me too.

Same here, of course.

Count me in. After all, this is a chance to defeat a demon lord.

Great.

We'll attack once the storm calms.

A wolf?

It looks just like a Fenrir.

Marius, can you fight in your monster form?

If you don't mind me attacking indiscriminately.

Suppose it's better for you to stay in this form then.

This will reduce her chances of attacking the other attackers.

Next, let's see how long I can hold up against this giant monster.

That hardly did any damage to her.

Her fur is as tough as armour.

Keep your eyes on me!

Those fangs are no joke.

But her attacks are simpler now!

The consecutive hits deplete my shield force so fast.

Prepare to cast long-distance magic.

Doesn't seem very effective.

It's a battle against the guardian.

We've been prepared for this to be a long fight.

Her attacks are actually getting stronger!

Dang, I can't catch a break.

Sorry, Rud.

Took me some time to gather my strength.

You're good, don't worry about it.

He actually cut through that fur armour.

As expected of Marius.

Why is she howling?

Rud, just in case, I'll cast spells that nullify status ailments on these three.

But I won't be able to heal you guys in the meantime, so be careful.

Got it.

Rud, are you okay?

I'm fine. My shield force seems to be holding up.

As long as I don't go down, with their strength, we won't lose.

We must endure!

I'll persist until the end!

Taunt!

She's resilient.

But her movements are starting to slow down.

What's going on?!

What's with that green gust?

Whatever it is,

I'll slice it apart!

Marius!

Judging from that attack,

it seems to be a wind barrier that slashes anyone who comes near it.

The magic stone on her forehead

didn't shine so brightly before she put up the barrier.

Maybe if we destroy that stone, we'll be able to defeat her.

But we can't get close to her at all with that gust.

Nin, use your magic to cancel it.

After that, we'll attack together!

Got it!

In the radiance of the holy light,

the power of darkness…

We need to buy time for Nin.

Quietly emerging within the unseen brilliance of white waves…

It's getting hard to breathe because of the wind.

Just that alone is hard enough,

and we've still got to deal with the wind blades.

This is hell…

With the light of mercy shining into the darkness…

- Even so, I have to hold on! - dissipate in silence.

Prepare yourselves! If we're attacked…

She's trying to stop us from getting closer.

Render it all void!

Cease your pointless struggle!

I've removed the wind barrier.

Destroy the stone now!

You won't escape!

She blocked all the attacks on the magic stone.

But in doing so, she also left her chest vulnerable.

Get her, Rud!

My shield force has been depleted by almost 30,000.

Take this!

Life Conversion!

That's…

That's different from a barrier.

That's offensive wind magic!

Everyone, dodge!

Oh, no!

That's the sound of the shield breaking.

Rud!

I must hold on…

If I use up all my shield force and get seriously injured,

I'll die!

Rud!

Has it stopped?

Rud, are you all right?

Yeah, I barely made it through.

Lilia!

Marius!

Lilia!

Hang in there!

Rud…

Thank goodness you two are still alive.

Luna, Nin,

heal them.

They'll be killed if they took another attack.

You've used up all your shield force.

It's too dangerous!

I can still use my skills without it.

I can still fight.

Besides, I'm the only one here who can stop her.

Got it.

Luna. Lily.

Moreover, I'm the one who selfishly dragged everyone here.

They came because of me.

It's my responsibility to protect all of them!

I'm feeling the pain without the shield…

At this rate, I'm going to be crushed!

Wind magic?!

No?

She can't use any more magic.

She's weakened.

We're so close…

I hate to say it, but we'll have to retreat for now…

I can still fight.

Nin, Luna, prepare your magic.

From now on, I'll be the attacker.

Lily, what are you saying?

I'll use Fusion and take Lilia's place.

She's been weakened. We only have to defeat her.

But…

Rud,

you said you'd listen to my request.

I can still fight!

What a reckless one.

I understand.

I'll block all the attacks.

I'll help too.

Let's take her down with all we have!

Yes!

I didn't realise how much power I'd lose without my shield.

But...

I've got to buy her time.

Rud!

Thanks, Nin.

Lily, are you ready?

Ready.

I'm not done yet.

Rud?!

Her speed isn't too different from when Lilia's in control,

but unlike her, Lily's moves are too simple.

They're too predictable.

Sorry.

I'm not used to this body yet.

In that case, fight as you usually do.

Lilia's out cold anyway.

Don't worry about her.

Fight in your own way!

My own way?

I'll do my best to buy you time until you get used to it.

So take your time.

Got it.

Although,

given the current situation, it's a tall order,

but my comrade is fighting so hard to change.

So, it's my job to support her.

Rud!

Curses.

In my current state, it's really hard for me to do my job as the tank.

I think I'm going to pass out from the pain…

No, these are just excuses.

No matter what happens, it's my job to protect my party.

Marius used mana as his shield force.

If I do the same, maybe I can continue to fight.

Rud, she's heading towards you!

It's not perfect, but it worked.

Still, this isn't enough.

I need to focus my mana and transform it into my shield force!

I can move more agilely, just like when I still had my shield force.

The pain in my arm is fading too.

So that's how you do it.

She sped up her attacks.

Is she getting anxious?

Unleash more mana.

I can move as freely as I did

when I had my shield force surrounding me.

Time for the counterattack!

Lily, now!

This is different from Lilia.

This is my way of fighting!

What power!

Did she enchant the sword with all elements?

Let's end it with this!

She's planning to strike with all four elements at once!

Lily! Are you okay?

I'm okay…

Thank you, Rud.

That's my line.

We won today because of you.

It wasn't just me.

Now, take a little break.

Amon,

do you want to continue?

I cannot even move anymore.

You put up an excellent fight.

I never thought I'd see the day I'd be defeated.

I'm looking for a magic stone that can grant any wish.

Do you know anything about that?

Here, take it.

Thanks.

Never expected my opponent to thank me. That is a surprise indeed.

Well? Are you not going to deliver the final blow?

Or are you perhaps the type that enjoys tormenting pretty girls?

You said you were a demon lord.

Are there any other demon lords like you?

Of course.

Though, I do not know the exact number.

What is their objective?

Among demon lords, there is a popular game

of how to destroy this world.

And what is your goal?

Do you seek to be an enemy of the humans as a demon lord?

Or do you just want to fight strong opponents?

You have an intention.

Yes.

Speak away.

Will you help us?

If the demon lords are coming after the humans,

I plan to gather forces to resist them.

Then simply put a slave bracelet on me and make me obey your command.

I don't like to force others against their will.

That's why I'm asking for your cooperation.

An amusing one you are, indeed.

Well, I'm not particularly attached to my identity as a demon lord.

Rather, since you have extended an invitation,

I shall gladly become your ally.

Thank you.

Now, let's return to the city…

What's the matter?

I am tired.

I can't take another step. Carry me.

Eh?

And thus, Eh?

And thus,

we successfully persuaded Amon Sloth,

the guardian of Caird Labyrinth, to join our forces.

After that, the two major clans held another ball.

And I…

We've successfully raided Caird Labyrinth.

Is this the map of the 51st floor?

You're kidding!

In exchange for this map and information,

I request an alliance with the two clans.

I announced that in front of everyone.

Of course,

I didn't reveal that the guardian had become our ally.

After successfully forming an alliance with the two major clans,

we embarked on our journey back to Avancier.

I want to see Manicia soon…

Rud.

Rud.

Li…

Shh. You'll wake everyone.

Thank you for your help in the labyrinth battle.

It's nothing. And I told you, didn't I?

It was thanks to you…

We won because of everyone's efforts.

But

it was thanks to you that I could fight until the end.

Thank you.

I'm going back to sleep.

What was that about?

And she fell asleep right away.

I'll just have to ask her later what that kiss meant.

I should just sleep…

Rud.

Lilia!

Did she see that?

Thank you for what you did in the labyrinth.

I heard your voice.

That's all.

After arriving in Avancier, we rushed to Manicia.

Manicia, use this magic stone.

How do you feel?

I feel so much better.

Thank you so much,

Miss Amon.

There's not much I can do for you,

but I'll put my best effort into preparing three meals and afternoon tea for you.

So, please enjoy yourself during your stay here.

Being warmly welcomed by such a lovely human is a delight.

And the snacks are delicious too.

I shall remain in this town for the time being.
