After watching the scenery of the Riveria, they proceed to the deeper Floor.
Grand Tree.
It was the area between the 19th Floor and 24th Floor in the dungeon. It was a passage that extended like the inside of a massive tree with a height exceeding ten meters. It contained several smaller caves. The floor characteristics were that of the plant kingdom. The light illuminated by the faunas fascinated many adventurers but also invited them to death, as the floors were full of a deathly trap.
For example, it was like the massive mushroom called the Dark Fungus. It might seem completely harmless, but it was a monster that released a deadly poison through its spores to anything that got close to it.
Line explained about the Grand Tree in great detail since she knew how dangerous it was. After all, she was a supporter, and since she was weak, she had to work harder than everyone, especially in terms of information.
Even Alicia was completely at Line's mercy when it came to information.
As for Lefiya, it was better not to mention this girl at all.
Still, while Tsukasa listened to Line's explanation, he really thought she didn't have the means to protect herself. While he knew it wasn't really since she was a supporter, her job wasn't to fight on the frontline like him. He felt it was necessary to arm her since even if she could use magic, it was just simply weak when she was compared to Lefiya.
While it was possible for him to create a firearm since it was easy to get the materials, Tsukasa reserved his plan to make one. After all, this was the world of magic. While science was good, there was no romance in it.
Tsukasa thought to create a magic weapon that could be used by Line.
The question is, what kind of weapon?
Tsukasa knew Line was a magician, so it was impossible to choose a close-range weapon. Not only would it just be a waste of time, but sending her on the frontline with a close-range weapon was just a suicide. So while she might have some knowledge regarding a cold weapon, it was better for her to attack from a distance.
'Then it should be a long-range weapon.'
Tsukasa thought for a moment and felt a crossbow might be suitable.
As for a bow, or other primitive long-range weapons, he felt it was hard to use them.
After all, Line wasn't an elf, or she had a special talent for long-range weapons.
On the other hand, the crossbow was easy to use, and after being trained by Tsukasa, her accuracy was quite nice.
Still, a crossbow also had its own problem since one had to use an arrow to shoot them.
If Line could bring a lot of arrows, it would be nice. However, the arrow would take up a lot of space on the luggage, so it was troublesome to bring a lot of them during the expedition.
When Tsukasa thought about this condition, he felt it was necessary to create a crossbow where one could shoot out an arrow made with magic.
With his cube, it was possible to create it. However, while it was possible to lend his cube to Line, it was impossible for her to use it forever. After all, he would go home for a while in the future. Also, it might be good to challenge himself to create a magic item, especially after he gets a "Mystery."
Also, Line was a magician, so her magic status was quite huge compared to others, and this magic crossbow should be a good weapon for her.
Now, the next question was how to get the materials?
Tsukasa looked at his surroundings and felt it might be good to use some wood and a monster on this Floor, so he didn't need to spend his money. He had made up his mind and started his hunt on the Grand Tree with Line, Lefiya, and Alicia.
"Is that Vouivre?" Tsukasa looked at the female humanoid monster with a red stone on its forehead. Although he must admit, this female monster was similar to a human, which made him wonder whether it was a monster.
"Yes." Alicia nodded and said, "If you're lucky, you might be able to get Vouivre's Tear after you defeat it."
"Vouivre's Tear?"
"It's a rare material. If you can get it, you can get at least a few million Valis," Line said.
"That's much?!" Tsukasa was surprised since a Vouivre was a monster around the 19th to 24th Floor, so he wondered how the material from this monster could be so expensive.

"Of course, it is expensive! It's very rare, as much as a Unicorn is," Lefiya said with a snort. She still wanted to keep her love for Ais-san, so she tried to hate him. However, why had her feelings become stronger and stronger?
"..." Tsukasa looked at Lefiya for a moment, then said, "Let's say if I can get the Vouivre's Tear from that monster, what will you do?"
"Huh?!" Lefiya was surprised, but she thought for a moment before she said, "I-I'll do whatever you want!"
"Oh!" Tsukasa let out an exclaim.
"Bu-But no perverted request!" Lefiya blushed while furiously shaking her head.
"......" Tsukasa was lost for words, and he definitely wouldn't ask such a request, especially when Line and Alicia were right beside him, staring at him in silence. "I won't ask for such a request."
"Is-Is that so?" Lefiya wasn't sure why, but she felt disappointed. However, she quickly regained her spirit and asked, "The-Then, if I win, what will you do?"
"Well..." Tsukasa thought for a moment and said, "You can ask whatever you want."
"Eh? Whatever?" Lefiya was dumbfounded before the universe appeared on her mind, and she started to imagine many things that shouldn't be imagined by an elf.
"But you can't ask a perverted request, alright?" Tsukasa added.
"Wh-Who is going to ask such a request?!" Lefiya furiously denied it and wanted to slam her magic staff at Tsukasa after how he dared to accuse an elf might request a perverted request?
Lefiya pouted and felt she had to punish him well, so she would feel better later.
"......" Line and Alicia weren't sure why, but they felt Lefiya had been trapped. Also, while they didn't say anything, they were jealous!
"Well, let's try." Tsukasa didn't waste his time and just dashed toward the Vouivre. He slashed his claymore right at the neck of the Vouivre. While this monster might seem like a human, in the end, it was just a monster, and there was no need for mercy.
The Vouivre dead and vanished. However, it left something on the ground.
Tsukasa looked at the magic stone and saw something else on the side. "Oh? What is this?"
Line, Alicia, and Lefiya quickly approached him, and they were dumbfounded when they saw the items that were dropped from the Vouivre.
"No-No way..." Lefiya doubted and wondered whether Tsukasa was an illegitimate child of the goddess of luck.
"......." Alicia and Line were also speechless since it was their first time seeing someone get the Vouire's Tear.
Still, Lefiya awoke, especially when she heard this devil's voice.
"So I won, right?"
"......."
Lefiya closed her eyes and suddenly thought of Ais. 'I am sorry, Ais-san.' She took a deep breath with puffy cheeks and red eyes, holding her magic staff tightly, showing she wasn't afraid of Tsukasa!
However, Tsukasa only felt this girl was as cute as a hamster.
Also, why did Tsukasa feel they thought he was going to ask a perverted request?
Tsukasa felt this was discrimination since he wouldn't ask for such a request.
Definitely.
