Only I Level up My Dungeon Equipment!

Chapter 23

But there's a guy I want to hit, a thought I want to carry through.

“Ah!　But…”

“Hm?”

“What I want to do most right now is to beat up some guy!”

“You want to beat him!　That doesn’t sound very calm…”

I didn’t realize that the honor student Kenya-kun would have such thoughts….

Tanaka looks surprised as he continues.

“Haha, yes. It’s not peaceful… but…”

Am I just going to cry myself to sleep like this?

What kind of foolishness is that?

I am sure Sato will go on to succeed.

He will use the many corpses as stepping stones, forgetting even the stepping stones he stepped on.

He will get married before he knows it, have children, take over his parents’ company, and raise a happy family.

They will enjoy such ordinary happiness.

You have destroyed the happiness of those around you by wielding the malice on your whims.

Forgetting that you have made many people unhappy.

So….

“Justice must prevail!”

My own personal justice within me.

To carry out that justice that everyone has.

With the violence of a beating.

Is violence bad?　I don’t know anything about that.

Violence, after all, solves everything.

I know that justice without force is powerless.

So is it meaningless?　Is it meaningless without force?　That is not true.

To be able to say “no” even if you are powerless is strength, courage, and my justice.

But I know how difficult it is to carry out that desire.

I know that there are many people who fall short of their strength, and that most of them end up crying themselves to sleep.

That is why I will hit him. Otherwise, my justice will be broken.

“Hmm, justice! I don’t know what that means, what a blue …… wonderful reason. Go for it, that’s what I’m thinking!　I’ll support you, as a member of the Bean Sprout Alliance!”

“Yes!”

I smile and give a thumbs-up to Tanaka-san, who smiles and gives a thumbs-up to me, too.

And then I leave.

“…But it’s a little dangerous.”

Tanaka thought he was in danger when he saw the back of Kenya.

While he liked his daredevil personality, he also thought that his alliance partner, who still seemed to be a little too close to the mark, was in danger.

(Let me do a little research, Kenya. I really like you.)

Straightforward and daredevil, yet gentle and warm.

He is a good-natured, ordinary student, but his aim is higher than anyone else’s, and he has everything in his hands to do justice.

He liked Kenya, who had many similarities with himself.　

(Maybe you can make it to the top of that tower eventually…)

…

“Alright!　Let’s dive the dungeon tomorrow!”

The delivery starts next month, then I have one more month of free time.

So I’ll go over Sato in this one month.

And then…

“I’ll make you apologize, Sato.”

With your favorite ‘violence’.

…

Half a month later.

“Finally, it’s all here. And I was able to improve my skills. Now…”

Evolution… Evolution… Evolution… Evolution… Evolution…

The 13th level of the dungeon.

A boy collects and smelts knight series. The purpose is to collect the king series.

And then to make it into a higher level of equipment.

He is the only one in the world who is allowed to do so by the power of alchemy.

The boy who has the power of a king obtains even greater power.

But he is the only one who knows about it.

…

The day after Kenya evolves his equipment in the dungeon.

It is time to go to school.

A group of ill-mannered high school students, looking like they own the place, monopolize a large portion of a train car.

The train was packed with people, but it was even smaller than before.

But no one could pay attention.

“Sato-san!　He doesn’t seem to be holding his own these days!”

Sato’s crony A tells the story of that bully who just endures and shows no reaction.

“Oh, I’m going to have to change my tactics a bit, I don’t like his eyes. I’m gonna make you cry again!”

(I don’t like it, you’re weaker than me, you look straight at me.)

Sato sitting on the train, sitting on a huzzah, smoking a cigarette.

And the righteous office worker who warned him about it.

All of them cheer with all their hearts, telling him to do his best.

But the result.

“GHHHH!”

He is followed and taken to a back alley.

He is punched in the stomach, kicked until he vomits, and made to vomit blood.

This evil child is capable of beating people to death, even ordinary people.

The passersby, watching from the corner of their eyes, hurry to leave the scene at the sound of Sato and the others’ angry voices.

Justice without power cannot do anything to evil with power.

So they have no choice but to overlook it, which is the correct answer.

But Sato does not yet know that there is a boy who questions that supposedly correct answer.

(Ah, I’m getting so frustrated… I wonder if there is a way to beat up even that incompetent person or to really beat him up…)

Then, Sato has a flash of an idea.

The best way to relieve stress.

‘I don’t care about myself, but I can’t forget about my sister.’

*

(When it comes to his sister, he’s a bit of a jerk.)

(That guy got soooo mad when it came to his sister…yeah right!)

“Huh!”

With a strange laugh, the gay holy knight comes up with a gay idea.  (Ummm what???)

A way to openly, unapologetically, legally, and with all his might, beat up that incompetent to death.

How to mess up his straight eyes.

(I’m a genius after all.)

And then there is one poor girl who will fall under his poisonous fangs.

One of Kenya’s precious, precious girls is exposed to the malicious intent of evil.

Kenya doesn’t know that yet.

In the dungeon, desperately collecting and refining equipment, Kenya still knows nothing.

He still doesn’t know that his most precious thing will be harmed….

“Nana?”

Kenya goes to the place where Sato called him.

There, he finds a girl in a tattered school uniform.

A girl sitting helplessly on the cold ground, holding her shivering body.

The younger sister, who had noticed her brother, still managed to smile at him so as not to worry her beloved brother.

With bright red eyes that had been sobbing….
