After acquiring her new sword, Kasumi returned her focus to raising the rank of her entrance permit.

Another week after that, Maple was in the guild with her face on her desk.

“Sally…my permit rank won’t go up…”

Maple said to Sally who was sitting on the other side.

“Well, it will probably take you a long time.”

This was because, in order for you to increase your rank, you had to run around both inside and outside of the town and complete different errands.

And these errands ranged from gathering materials to hunting monsters.

Kasumi’s speed was completely abnormal, and it typically took players a long time to do it.

As Maple had sacrificed all kinds of things in exchange for defensive ability, she was much slower than most people.

Sally’s permit now read ‘seven,’ while Maple’s was still the same as when she had received it.

“I want to go to the center already…”

Maple mumbled. Just then, there was a rumbling that could be heard throughout the entire 4th layer.

“Wh-what?”

“I don’t know…huh?”

Both of them received a notice from management at the same time.

They opened the message to see what it was.

(As a player has gone through the ninth gate for the first time, the town has regained its original form. Because of this, quests and items have been added.)

“Sally! Let’s go and see!”

“Yeah, we might as well.”

When the two of them left the guild, there was one thing they saw that was noticeably different.

“Ohh…? What is…”

“Hmm…it looks like…an Oni.”

There were NPCs who were not people. Aside from the recognizable Oni, there were all kinds of Yokai and creatures walking in the streets.

The 4th layer had been a town of Yokai and curses.

“Sally? Are you okay with this kind of thing?”

Maple pointed at the floating fireball. It was clearly the kind of thing that Sally hated.

“It’s not coming towards me or trying to scare me…I’m sure it’ll be fine if I leave it alone.”

Still, her expression was hardly cheerful now.

Sally looked cautiously at the balls of fire as she talked with Maple.

“Do you think it was Kasumi who reached it?”

“She seems to have made so much progress.”

They were thinking about Kasumi, who was not here with them.

And their guesses were correct.

Kasumi was sitting down just inside the gate with the ‘nine’ painted on it.

The Yokai had appeared the moment she had gone through, and she had been so shocked that she could do nothing but sit and watch.

Kasumi did not realize what had happened until she read the notice from management.
