Is it wrong to try to meet someone in a dungeon?

Lily was stunned as she watched the kitten (Anya) sing like a saint, a sight that was completely different from her usual self.

"Hurry up and put on your earplugs!!"

"A disaster-level tone-deaf person is coming, meowa ...

"Huh!? Huh!?"

On the other hand, Lunova and Chloe covered their ears in panic, while Ming and the others were utterly confused.

The next moment—

"Please don't abandon me" — "Lost Kitten (Remist Feliz)"

She announced the name of the magic.

And—

"【Meowa ...

It emitted a terrifying "strange sound wave".

"Eeee ...

Lily, who failed to accept the earplugs (magical item) from Ming, was thus subjected to the "tone-deaf disaster" that the black cat (Koroi) spoke of. She collapsed on the spot with her hands covering her ears, writhing and struggling in pain. She was even shocked by this super noise generator, which was far from being a saint and could be described as world-destroying, and saw her life flash by on the spot.

Allen, who quickly covered his ears, and the fierce warriors following closely behind, also directly experienced the singing.

Alfred, Duvalin, Bellin, and Ger were also injured without any recourse.

Even Hestia and Mih were startled by the noise and jumped up on the spot.

This is ultra-wide-range magic.

The effective targets are not limited to friend or foe; everyone present will be affected.

Aside from Hedin, who had already completely covered his ears with his index finger to avoid being affected, the Orario residents watching the "mirror" broadcast were all swaying and staggering, demonstrating the "power" of the magic.

The first person to notice something was wrong was Lily, who propped herself up with trembling hands.

"Huh...? Why can't Lily... muster any strength...?"

This is different from feeling tired or weak, and it's also different from carrying a heavy load on your back. It's almost like you can't feel your own body.

Lily looked closely and discovered that she was faintly emitting a red magical light from her body.

"Wait, could this be... 'anti-status magic'?"

Lily opened her chestnut eyes and found the answer.

"Have their stats been weakened!?"

Anya's Magic: Lost Kitten

Just as Lily had guessed, its effect was "abnormal magic".

This is the exact opposite of Haruhime's level-up, which can cause a significant decrease in the target's stats—making it a prime example of a debuff effect.

Anyone affected by Anya's ultimate tone-deaf disaster—that is, everyone within the effective range of the magic—will be inflicted with a powerful "status down" effect, regardless of whether they are friend or foe.

Having personally experienced the inability to block magical effects without specialized magical tools, Lily mustered her courage and raised her head. On the current battlefield, the valiant orc warriors, the [Flame Gold Warriors], and the [Goddess Chariot] were all under the influence of this red magical light.

"Useless trash! How dare you do this?!"

The image of "Lost Kitten," still echoing in his ears and causing him immense pain, made Allen curse out loud.

"Cough cough, cough cough... As a result, my brother and the others have all become much weaker, meow...!"

Anya, who could only activate this powerful "abnormal magic" once in battle with a cooldown of more than half a day, touched her exhausted throat.

While the effect of [Lost Kitten] isn't enough to directly reduce the target's level by one, it's one of the most powerful debuff spells available. It not only significantly reduces stats but also blocks the effects of "skills" and "magics".

Knowing that the latter is more troublesome than the former, the biological brother (Allen) stares at his biological sister (Anya) as if he were facing an enemy.

"Big brother... I'm really afraid of you, meow. Even after you abandoned me, I didn't dare to make you angry so that I could come back to you... I've always lived in fear."

Even under such a sharp gaze, Anya showed no fear.

Since joining the Freya Familia, Anya, who had always only dared to glance at her brother's expression to avoid being abandoned, is now looking directly at Eren.

"Actually, I really want to become family with you, big brother—but! I already have other family members! Besides Ryu, Chloe, Lunova, Mia Mommy, and the other shop assistants, I have to go and save another 'irreplaceable family member'!"

The naive Anya doesn't understand why "she" saved her back then.

On that rainy day, it was Ellen and the goddess (Freya) who abandoned Anya, but the girl (Seele) saved her.

She was also given a place called "the abundant mistress".

Perhaps, as "she" said, this was merely a whim of God. Or perhaps it was a cruel form of entertainment intended to break Anya, who was already deeply in love with her, once again.

—Someone, please save me.

However, Anya had already heard the girl's (Seele's) true feelings.

She has learned that the girl (Seele) is also in great pain.

"So, the cat is going to greet Seele!"

Anya is an idiot, and also an abandoned cat who is afraid of being alone.

Because she clearly understands the loneliness of being alone, she longs for family and cherishes them more than anyone else.

So in order to save her family, she was willing to fight against her own blood relatives (her eldest brother).

"If defeating my brother is necessary for this, then for now, I am willing to be your enemy!!"

"—You idiot!!"

Faced with Anya's "declaration of war," Allen roared in a fit of rage.

Even if he was affected by abnormal magic, it didn't matter. He rushed out so that he could pierce his own sister's body with the silver spear.

Anya also raised her golden spear and rushed forward at high speed, instantly reducing the distance between the two sides to zero.

The first sibling rivalry between the two cats since birth has begun.

"Let's go too!"

"Ora ora! You victims of the Disaster Cat Poisonous Concert (Anya Solo Concert), prepare yourselves, meow!!"

On the other hand, Lunova and Chloe removed their earplugs and launched an offensive in order to seize the opportunity.

The earrings they wore were originally called "Silemce lyra".

These earrings were originally developed by the "Omnipotent Ones" to defend against the songs of the "Singer Bird (Siren)" and the "Mermaid (mermaid)." Later, Asphie enhanced and modified them to fight against powerful enemies who were skilled in "sonic" attacks during the Dark Ages. Thanks to Ryu, who preserved this item left behind by her former companions, Lunova and her friends, who were once severely injured and nearly wiped out by the Cat of Disaster's Poisonous Concert (Ania's Solo Concert), mobilized all the bar staff to ask Asphie to mass-produce it. It was a magical item with these hidden secrets.

""""hateful!!""""

Having successfully avoided the powerful debuffs, Lunova and the others launched a joint attack on the four brothers who were unsteady on their feet.

"This, this is...!"

With Anya's "magic" as the trigger, the battle situation was completely reversed in an instant.

Having received enhancements from their level upgrades, Lunova, Aisha, and the others finally put the previously overwhelming Jariba brothers on the defensive. Seeing that they were completely unable to intervene in the high-speed battle between Allen and Anya, the valiant orc warriors quickly switched their support to the [Flame Gold Warriors].

(Although the number of battle prostitutes and tavern staff is also dwindling, the valiant warriors have also been weakened by the strange magic! After these conditions cancel each other out...!)

The situation was fairly evenly matched. At least during the period when Anya, who had temporarily reached Lv.5, suppressed Allen, the campaign against the "Four Flame Warriors" had a slight "turning point".

"In that case, all we have to do is manage to deal with the combined attack of the Four Flame Warriors—!!"

Lily, who was on the roof of the cemetery overlooking the battlefield, focused all her remaining strength on her mind.

Not a single second can be wasted; we must find a way to develop the most feasible and successful operational plan in a short period of time.

The commander girl, who had repeatedly forced her comrades to sacrifice themselves, was now gambling her own life in those few seconds.

Next—

"—Lady Aisha, Lady Ming, Lady Naza! Here is Lily's battle plan!"

She sent a message to the faction alliance "Last Main Force," which decided to use the props carried by Nazha to respond.

People who recognize each other's strengths can understand each other without much explanation, so Lily's message was very concise and to the point.

"Huh...!? Wait a minute! Lady Lily! This plan will put you in danger...!?"

"Lily has already sacrificed too many adventurers and gods, so I must also risk my life!"

"...!!"

The man raised objections to the plan, but the dog-man, who had been listening intently with a serious expression, spoke up:

"...Okay, let's do it this way."

"Lady Nazha!!"

"Actually, I... have run out of arrows."

"!"

"I won't be able to offer much help in the battle... so I'll take on the role of 'bait' instead."

Despite having stayed behind to provide support, Nazha fought until her clothes and protective gear were tattered, yet a smile appeared on her face.

"Fate...you'd better seize this opportunity...and let those level one adventurers know that we're not to be trifled with."

"…………yes!!"

Faced with the resolve of Lily and Nazha, Ming could no longer speak to stop them.

Aisha, watching the girls nod at each other with determined expressions, couldn't help but smile.

"I'll relay the message to those guys at the tavern. Don't mess it up, little one!"

"yes!"

The Amazon's eyes gleamed, and it issued the final command.

"The effects of the level-up will soon disappear! When Lady Haruhime casts her magic again, it will be the signal to begin the battle plan!"

"Noka! Attack the enemy's reserves!!"

Alfred's unrestrained shouts echoed from the battlefield.

"There's a mage or sorcerer over there who can cast almost overpowered enhancement magic!! Take care of that guy immediately!!"

"...Yes, ma'am!!"

The werewolf members immediately obeyed the instructions of the Level 1 adventurer.

The remaining valiant warriors obeyed orders and began attacking the fighting prostitutes who were holding out in front of the cemetery. Aisha and the others, their faces pale, rushed forward to stop them, but were blocked by the combined attack of the four dwarf quadruplets.

Alfred's judgment was absolutely correct; even in dire straits, he demonstrated the presence of a first-class adventurer through his wisdom and intuition. At the same time, this also meant that the Jariba brothers, who originally relied on speed and brute force to sweep away enemies, were beginning to employ "tactics."

This is also the best evidence that first-level adventurers have reached a dead end.

"Launch──────!"

"Ughhhhhhh!?"

The reserve force greeted the approaching valiant warriors with a volley of "magic swords."

Although the guards (Amazons) protected the vital girl with their own bodies, the wind pressure carrying flames and lightning still blew towards Haruhime, who was located in the center of the reserve force.

"Haruhime! Are you alright... wait!! Someone saw you!"

"Huh...! Lord Fels' magical artifact (cloak) has been..."

Haruhime was utterly astonished upon hearing the words of the Amazonian girl, Lina, who had rushed over.

Although the Goliath Robe on Haruhime successfully blocked the damage, the outer invisibility cloak (double-sided invisibility garment) had been blown away by the wind and was now tattered like a rag. Even a magical artifact provided by the former sage (Fels) could no longer grant invisibility in such a damaged state.

"Lina! What happened!?"

"Samira, Haruhime can no longer turn invisible! She can't use magic while in this state!"

As the fierce warriors clashed with the fighting prostitutes at the front, Samira, the gray-haired Amazon who was in charge of commanding the reserve forces, ran over.

"This battle is being broadcast live throughout the entire city, isn't it?! Doing this will expose Haruhime's 'secret'!"

"...!"

"What should we do now!? Should we run away as Aisha ordered!? Although the supreme god (Hathor) seems to be still alive...! But it seems there are no other allies besides us..."

Faced with Lina's increasingly soft voice, Samira was unable to make a judgment for the time being.

Leveling up is the most secret of secret arts, and also a cheating technique that makes a certain goddess (Ishtar) ecstatic. Once exposed, it will inevitably attract the covetous eyes of unscrupulous people. As a result, Haruhime, as a sorceress, will never have a peaceful day again, and will be targeted for the rest of her life.
