Saturday morning, we went to the 59th floor of the Tower of Sunrise.
「Wait for a moment here, everyone.」
「Eh? What is it?」
「It’s dangerous if the boss does an area attack or something like that.」
「U-, Un.」
It seems like Aya also understands.
I head towards the 60th floor by myself.
◊♦◊♦◊♦◊♦◊
「Sloww!! Why didn’t you climb up immediately!?」
A small girl, who looks like a high-school student, was floating.
Although I say small, it’s not the age, but the size.
「What are you?」
「What do you think I am? 」
I don’t get it……
It’s because the [Appraisal] isn’t working.
When I tried to use [Appraisal], the magic failed.
The shield that the devil tribe has also obstructed the magic, but this time, it seems to be different again.
It seems like the [Appraisal] magic itself is not invoking for some reason.
And then, from this fellow, I sense some kind of pressure for some reason.
「When at the extent that the [Appraisal] doesn’t work, it pathetically makes you tremble, doesn’t it!?」
Shit, the information has been seen through.
Just what the heck is this girl!
「If the girls waiting down below see the current you, they may feel disillusioned.」
You’re even aware of Aya and the others!?
Did expressly leaving them down below backfire!?
「Hey, Maruyama Seiji-kun of ○○ corporation.」
What did you say!?
To even know such a thing, how!?
「Well, enough messing around……」
Is she coming!?
Boss fight!?
「A quiz! Who am I?」
Q-, Quiz!?
Whatever, let’s take a guess.
There were several hints from our conversation so far.
「You are…… [Information Magic]’s Spirit, right?」
「A big check!! How did you know?」
「There are eight towns in this country. One in each cardinal and ordinal directions respectively.
There are mana crystals of attribute magic in the cardinal directions and in the three among the towns in the ordinal directions, there are mana crystals of non-attribute magic.
And the only mana crystal unconfirmed――
is just the Ikebu town’s.
Then, the mana crystal that I haven’t found yet among the magics that I know is just the [Information Magic]’s.
From the things I’ve mentioned above, I’ve inferred that there’s a mana crystal of Information Magic in Ikebu town.
And if there’s a mana crystal in Ikebu town――
That place, a place where no one has ever reached before, there’s only this top floor of the [Tower of Sunrise].
And in there, was an existence, who knew all of my information, there’s no one like that except the [Information Magic]’s Spirit.」
「Check, check, big checkーー!! Amazing, precisely as I expected, the information analysis ability is cut above the rest!」
When the Spirit said so, that pressure of sort enveloping the place vanished.
「How is it? The terror of not knowing what kind of person your opponent is, did you understand?」
「Yeah, I didn’t expect it, although this time’s [Appraisal] didn’t work, such a situation where the [Appraisal] is being used by the opponent, it’s so scary.」
「That’s right, that’s right~. Did you understand the dreadfulness of [Information Magic]?」
「Yeah.」
「Yes, there’s an understanding person, it’s such a happy thing~. The people of this world don’t understand the dreadfulness of something called [Information Magic] that much, you know~? Same goes with my fellow Spirits, too and there’s even guy, who said I’m useless~.」
I see, I was being tested if I understood the value of information, huh.
