After Accidentally Helping a Famous Streamer Who Forgot to Turn Off Her Dungeon Stream, I Began to Go Viral as a Legendary Explorer ～ The Introverted Me Accidentally Dominating with My Mysterious Skill 'Ignore Rules' - Chapter 25: Karma, Part 3 - Why Are You So Close to Dying?

Chapter 25: Karma, Part 3 – Why Are You So Close to Dying?

“Hehehe… You don’t have an item as rare as this, do you?”

Goyama took out an item called “Powerful Energy” from his item box.

Of course, it only worked within the dungeon, but drinking it would significantly reduce stamina depletion for a set period. It was a cheat-level item.

—I never thought he’d use items in this duel. 

It might be considered cowardly, but if that’s the case, I’ll just have to be vigilant as well.

Ignore Fire Magic Usage Restriction.

With this skill, I should be able to use all types of fire magic.

Using a powerful spell right off the bat would be risky, so I’d better start with a beginner-level Fireball.

“Ha!”

I thrust my right hand forward, and a large fireball shot out from my palm. It hurtled towards Goyama at a terrifying speed, but—

“Whoops.”

Goyama effortlessly dodged it.

“Hahaha, you really are an idiot. You’ll deplete your MP in one go if you use such a pathetic spell like that—”

BOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!

Before Goyama could finish his sentence, a massive explosion erupted behind him.

The Fireball I cast had struck the wall, causing an impact akin to a cannon being fired.

—I see.

The Fireball alone shouldn’t have had this much power. This was entirely thanks to my “Red Dragon’s Extreme Magic Sword.” I had successfully destroyed a portion of the dungeon wall.

“Heh, heh… Impressive power indeed, but you can only use that once… You’ve messed up. Next is my attack—”

“Fireball.”

“Heh…”

This time, I won’t hold back.

I conjured three Fireballs simultaneously, releasing them at Goyama in succession.

“H-Hey! That’s crazy? Why—!?”

BOOOOOOOOOOMMM!! BOOOOOOOOOOMMM!! BOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!

“Hi, iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!”

A series of massive explosions erupted around Goyama, devastating the area.

As one would expect—Goyama seemed to have dodged all three fireballs. I guess that’s the effect of “Powerful Energy.”

In that case, let’s try using ten Fireballs next.

“S-stop, stop it! I’ll die! I’ll die!”

I heard some screaming, but due to the overwhelming noise, I couldn’t make out what was being said.

Well, it’s Goyama, after all. He’s probably spouting his usual hateful remarks.

There’s absolutely no need for mercy. 

Considering he’s wearing the armor of the Black Dragon Geete, he surely won’t die from just a Fireball.

BOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!

BOOOOOOOOMM!!

BOOOOOOM!!

“S-stop it! It’s breaking! It’s breaking!”

“It took me two years to finally craft this armor! Please stop!”

“Help meeeeeee!”

“Don’t break it!”

Hmm… things are going well.

The drawback caused by “Red Dragon’s Extreme Magic Sword” is nicely offset by “Ignore MP Limit.”

If my base stats were higher, I could’ve produced even greater power.

Since I’m just a low-level player, I can only unleash this much strength. Well, I guess the only way is to steadily level up from here.

“Well, I guess that’s enough for a warm-up. Shall we get serious now, Goyama?”

“Hah… Hah…”

However, the Goyama who emerged from the dissipating black smoke looked utterly changed.

The Black Dragon Geete armor he was so proud of was now miserably destroyed, revealing patches of his skin here and there. It’s likely useless now.

And despite having consumed “Powerful Energy,” he was panting incredibly hard.

“What’s going on… What happened to your armor, Goyama?”

“What do you mean ‘what happened?’ You did this…”

“No, no, surely the Black Dragon Geete armor wouldn’t break just from some Fireballs?”

“Damn you… Kirishima, I won’t forgive you!”

“Huh? You still want to fight, Goyama-kun?”

Miyu slowly approached the visibly angry Goyama.

“Tsukushi-kun, you said ‘this is enough for a warm-up’ earlier. You probably haven’t gotten serious yet, right?”

“Uh… yeah. I mean, I was only using Fireball. I’d like to try out some other magic if I can…”

“So? Are you still good to go, Goyama-kun?”

“Eh!? T-t-t-t-t-that is…!”

What suddenly came over him? He was acting so bold just a moment ago, and now he’s all flustered.

“Well, I actually want to keep fighting, but it looks like I’ll have to head back soon…”

“Head back? It’s just turned 8 PM. Weren’t we supposed to start dueling now?”

“Guhhhhhhhhhhh!”

What’s going on?

Goyama had tears pooling in his eyes.

“Anyway, we’re calling it off for now! I’ll challenge you to a match again later!”

Saying that, he practically fled from the dungeon.
