Level 1 Strongest Sage ~

“Akari, to your right.”

“G-Got it!”

“...Three, two, one. Now!”

“Eyyy!!”

Akari released a flick towards the direction pointed to by Tet.

The goblin that appeared right on cue was annihilated that very instant.

Akari had defeated the goblin.

　──＊＊＊──

Let’s go back to the moment Akari stepped inside the dungeon.

“Tet. Honestly, I… I don’t think I’ll be able to… defeat monsters.”

Akari became nervous after having a taste of the certain air unique to a dungeon.

The goddess bestowed <Indomitability> skill to her, so she would never experience being frozen on the spot out of fear regardless of what kind of monster she would meet. Still, it would depend on the person herself whether she would move and take action or not.

Akari came from a peaceful world, so she didn’t even have the experience of killing animals.

However, she couldn’t underestimate this world. She had to make sure she could protect herself, else she wouldn’t be able to survive.

— Even so, Akari already had the status and equipment necessary to withstand simultaneous, continuous blows from several demon kings and come out completely unscathed.

That’s just how abnormal her defense power was, so she shouldn’t have any problems even if she were to just take a stroll within the dungeon.

However, her goal was to get the gemstones within the treasure boxes, and she had to defeat the floor boss two times, at the very least in order for her to proceed to the next floor.

She needed to slay the monsters.

“Akari, try flicking your fingers from this spot.”

“F-From here?”

There was a stone statue of a knight 10 meters away from where Akari was standing, and Tet pointed to it.

“Yup. Just imagine flicking that.”

Akari didn’t understand what was going on, but she decided to do just as Tet said. She stretched her arm, pointed it to the target, bent her middle finger as if flicking someone on the forehead.

“E-Eyyy!”

Akari released her finger with a flick, and a shock wave was released.

That shock wave crumbled the stone statue into dust.

That stone statue was a very sturdy man-made golem created by Halt and Tina made for the noob adventurers and Vestier’s rookie soldiers.

If the golem gave its all in a battle, it would be ranked the third strongest monster in this dungeon, just below the second ranked ogre Orga who was also the 18th floor boss, and the last floor boss Sitri.

By the way, it was possible to advance within the dungeon even without fighting with these. If the challenger wanted to train for battle within this area, then that person could use the golem as much as they wanted.

There was zero chance of being killed, even if defeated.

However, winning against this golem was an absolute impossibility.

Halt designed it that way.

There were also soldiers and adventurers who tasted their first defeat in the hands of this golem.

It was very easy to get ahead of oneself, particularly if that person hadn’t experienced defeat yet. Being proud was also connected to being too lax. Letting one’s guard down in this world was already equivalent to death.

Halt had created this area so that people who were going to live while fighting in this world would know that there would be enemies they wouldn’t be able to defeat, no matter how well-prepared they were.

Even so, this golem was created using the materials that already existed in this world. They didn’t use scarletite, since it would just be a waste to do so.

The golem was created using orichalcon and mithril, but in the face of Akari, who was Level 300, it was just as soft as tofu.

“Akari, you’re doing great!”

“A-Amazing.”

“Akari just has to flick fingers from a distance on Tet’s cue.”

“Yup, got it.”

“Oh, and Tet’s gonna make sure we won’t run into monsters.”

Akari was Level 300, so there was no need for her slay monsters to raise her level.

She didn’t have to fight, unless she was attacked first, or if she had to do it so that she could move forward.

“I’m counting on you, Tet.”

“Leave it to Tet!”

　──＊＊＊──

Akari reached the first floor boss after that. The boss of this floor was a slime.

It was the first monster she fought against since the time she came here —

“Eyyy!”

The fight already ended one second after Akari stepped inside the boss’s room.

Her attack was strong enough to pulverize a statue made out of orichalcon and mithril.

There was no way a mere slime could endure it.

The slime vanished in thin air, not even leaving a small piece behind — it was as if it didn’t even exist in the first place.

The fact that she didn’t have to look at the blood and corpse of the monster she defeated took a huge weight off Akari’s mental load.

“Nice, Akari!”

“T-Thank goodness… I managed to hit it, Tet.”

“Yup. It might be better if it reached the bottom, since it would be faster and the enemies would come out. Still, Akari’s gonna be fine, so just stay calm and give them a dekopin.”

Akari possessed the skill <God Speed>, so the attack speed and movement velocity of the monsters in this dungeon were not a big deal for her at all.

The only person who could attack at the ultimate speed possible was Leo, the King of the Beastkin, when he donned his lightning and force of gale infused magical suit. Still, Akari could move even faster than that.

She could be as fast as the Divine Beast Shiro.

“Keep calm and Dekopin. Keep calm and Dekopin. Keep calm… Tet, got it!”

“Good job. Then, let’s go! To the next floor!”

“Go!”

And thus began the strongest heroine’s dungeon conquest.

The monsters with a certain level of intellect and ability to sense how strong their opponents were immediately fled from Akari’s path.

Those who were foolish and unlucky enough to cross paths with her disappeared without even knowing what just happened.

The Goblin Fighter, boss of the second floor, disappeared with its armor without a trace.

By a stroke of bad luck, Akari and Tet finally reached the third floor, but an adventurer who got here before her had already swiped all the contents of the treasure chests on that floor just a few hours before the girl came here.

By the way, that bad luck was referring to the rotten luck of the floor boss of this dungeon.

Akari didn’t get the gems she wanted, so she continued on further down the floor.

The monsters that roamed this floor could flee away from Akari if they had the ability and wits to sense danger.

That was due to Akari not bothering to seek out and slay monsters that didn’t cross paths with her.

However, the floor boss was different.

It had to face Akari no matter what; it was absolutely a must.

Moreover, the gems could only be obtained from the third floor and seventeenth floor.

In short, if Akari failed to achieve her goal on the third floor —

The destruction of the floor bosses up to the 16th floor was already set in stone.
