Gacha Game Girls Are Obsessed With Me

[5th Floor, 5th Zone has been breached.]

“…What on earth are those guys?!”

Watching the heroes break through her territory with all sorts of bizarre methods, Tynia broke into a cold sweat.

Of course, the 5th floor is practically the beginning in a 100-floor tower.

Even demons couldn’t interfere infinitely in the tower, so Tynia, who was appropriately weakened and deployed, was there.

But this was ridiculous.

Heroes hitting their growth limits due to the tower’s restrictions.

And it’s not a place that can be breezed through by just three heroes!

…Thinking that.

She had personally descended to the 1st zone to toy with them.

[5th Floor, 6th Zone has been breached.]

“Noooooo! Seriouslyyyy!”

Even when she deployed sandworms that suddenly emerged from the ground.

A dog-like hero dashed around and blew them all up.

Even when she laid down demonic vines that would tightly bind anyone who stepped on them.

They avoided those spots as if they knew exactly where they were.

Even when she forcefully summoned Goblin Warriors instead of regular Goblin Soldiers.

They just smashed their heads and marched forward without hesitation.

Tynia began to feel a growing sense of unease.

It’s fine if they breach through.

After all, the ultimate conclusion is that they will breach through.

But.

At this speed?

Without any crisis?

The dignity of a tower manager is at risk of plummeting to the bottom!

“Ugh, ughhh!”

Tynia stomped her feet in frustration.

[5th Floor, 7th Zone has been breached.]

Seeing the message pop up again, she let out a deep sigh.

It seemed like they would reach her 10th zone in no time.

But.

It’s not over until it’s over.

“Muhihi, but you can’t defeat me!”

Since she had already exhausted all the resources allocated to the 5th floor.

She couldn’t hold the heroes back any further.

But the 10th zone is different.

A genius little devil who descended from the demon realm as if dancing.

The cutie that makes the Demon King tremble and the army commanders applaud.

Tynia, that’s me!

Judging from the heroes’ combat style.

They didn’t seem to have a way to block her unique ability.

“Hehe, I can’t wait to see them grabbing each other’s hair and fighting…!”

This humiliation of being breached in the shortest time across multiple dimensions.

I will definitely pay it back.

Thus, Tynia burned with fighting spirit.

[Tower of Wishes 5th Floor – Tynia’s Illusion 9th Zone Cleared!]

[Objective Achieved: ★★★ / Clear Time: 5 minutes 7 seconds]

[First Clear Reward: 10 Divine Stones]

[★★★ Achievement Reward: 10 Divine Stones]

“Easy.”

“Easy indeed.”

“Woof!”

“Arc, you’re the best!”

There were unexpected obstacles, but we managed to clear them smoothly.

Every 5th zone, a boss floor introduces some roguelike stage randomness.

Meaning, the 5th zone could be harder than the 9th zone, and such terrifying things could actually happen.

When level 35 Goblin Warriors poured out uncontrollably in the 7th zone, I couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.

But we managed to break through by using Lumi’s barking to pull aggro at the right moments.

Perhaps because all their strength was poured into the 7th zone, the 8th and 9th zones were a breeze.

“Arc, are we going straight?”

“No. Let’s rest for a bit. We’ll need Ha-Rong for the 10th zone.”

The boss fight is a different story.

We temporarily returned to the shop with our hardworking heroes.

“Yay! Arc, I’m ready!”

“Good.”

Ha-Rong didn’t officially join the party, preferring to work in the forge rather than tackle the tower.

But he agreed to play a crucial role in the 5th-floor strategy.

…The price was free alcohol, but that’s fine.

I said I’d provide it for free, not indefinitely.

I agreed to the terms, but I never agreed to abide by them.

Thus, the contract was sealed.

“Wow! What’s this, Arc? You’re a summoner?”

“Half of one, but yes.”

Adding one more person who knows the secret, and securing an additional room in the Guild House.

A 3+1 party.

Advance.

* * *

[Intruders have appeared in the 10th Zone.]

[Defense Points Available: 0]

“…No, I can do it!”

Since they didn’t enter the 10th zone immediately after clearing the 9th zone.

Tynia had hoped they would call it a day, but the wicked heroes arrived to trample on her pride.

But.

Tynia had already prepared in her mind to defeat the heroes with all sorts of tricks!

Taking a deep breath.

She watched the heroes entering her domain—the cave.

“Kyahaha, slow, aren’t you! Amateurs, just arriving now?”

In battle, momentum is crucial.

Despite the heroes arriving at a record-breaking speed, she tried to bluff.

But.

Something felt off.

The original three heroes had become four, which was fine.

But the state of that fourth one—

“Uh, that, that woman, is she drunk…? Why is she tied up…?”

It was bizarre.

Her eyes half-closed, her nose red and swollen.

Tied up so tightly she couldn’t move, entering alongside a saint-like woman.

Isn’t it a bit much to come to a fight drunk…?

A bad premonition crept in, but there was no turning back.

“Alright! I, the bewitching demon Tynia, will personally deal with you amateurs! Consider it an honor~!”

Delivering her promised lines.

The battle began.

The red-haired hero’s arrow pierced her side, but since it wasn’t her true body, the pain wasn’t severe.

The dog-like hero charging at her was sent flying with a light swing of her arm.

This is manageable.

With this, I can definitely wear them down with my Power of Bewitchment!

“Kyahaha, I’ll plunge you all into disbelief!”

Tynia activated her unique skill.

A skill that temporarily bewitches the warrior at the very back, taking control of their mind and making the warriors fight each other.

Normally, the warriors wouldn’t be able to harm each other.

But with this skill, they could.

The dumbfounded expressions on the warriors’ faces as they got hit by magic or arrows from behind… Kyahaha…!

With anticipation, Tynia blinked her eyes.

As a red glow flickered in her eyes, an ominous aura began to seep out.

Passing by the dog at the very front.

Passing by the redhead shooting arrows behind.

Passing by the saintess muttering prayers… passing by…

Passing by?

“Hey, wait… no…?”

As if her ominous premonition had come true.

Her skill seeped into the body of a drunkard, who was now completely passed out, snoring away.

“Mmm… more booze…”

“……”

And then.

Nothing happened.

Even if he had a bit of consciousness left.

With his body tied up, he couldn’t have done anything anyway.

“This is cheating!!!!!!!”

Tynia’s scream, filled with despair and rage, echoed through the cave.

The man in the hood, who had been letting the warriors do all the work until now.

“Mmm, jackpot.”

Hearing his small mutter, Tynia grabbed the back of her neck in frustration.

“Thud!”

A punch from the dog landed squarely on her defenseless stomach.

By now, half of Tynia’s fighting spirit was already gone.

—

Hmm.

Easy.

The 5th-floor boss, Mesgaki, is a straightforward boss, fitting for the early stages.

Though it was heartbreaking to see Lumi getting scratched up bit by bit.

“Heal!”

Finally, Yo-Hena, who had started to earn her keep, muttered a spell, and Lumi’s health bar filled up in an instant.

Ari was also relentlessly shooting arrows at the tattoo on Tynia’s stomach, as if it were a target, steadily accumulating damage.

The most threatening pattern.

The bewitchment was also countered by planting a human lightning rod.

…Honestly, I didn’t think it would work.

If this keeps up, we can just counter all the backline sniping monsters with the lightning rod meta.

It felt refreshing.

And so, we finally defeated Tynia, who kept repeating the same basic patterns over and over.

“Waaah…!”

Her pride severely wounded, she threw away her dignified Mesgaki demeanor and started bawling.

I felt a bit of sympathy.

But this is a sight we’ll be seeing often.

“Stay strong, Yo-Hena. Guiding a child onto the right path is never easy.”

“…Huh?”

“Knock, and it shall open. Let’s pray together that she finds her way to the goddess.”

“??”

Ah, she doesn’t know.

Yo-Hena wouldn’t understand right now…

Well, we’re out of stamina for today.

She’ll figure it out naturally in time.

—

The next day.

“Hi, Tynia?”

“Eeek…! Are we on greeting terms now?! Why are you back?!”

“See you again, Tynia?”

“What? Why aren’t you going to the 6th floor…?”

“Let’s do our best again, Tynia.”

“Stop, stop coming…!”

“Thud!”

“Kyaaah! Don’t bite meee!”

The hero party cleared Tynia 10 times in a row.

The next day too.

Even though it wasn’t her real body, the repeated destruction of her soul-infused clones was starting to terrify Tynia.

And each time, they came back stronger, making it hard for her to even handle a single dog.

Finally.

“Hiiii… that’s enough…!”

Tynia’s mental state crumbled.

“…Arc, how many more times do we have to clear this?”

The saintess, the only one who showed her a bit of pity, spoke with mercy in her voice.

Tynia’s ears perked up.

But.

“Hmm, we’ve collected 13 soul fragments so far… so probabilistically, we’ll need to run this about 100 more times? Maybe 10 more days. Besides, we’re getting some decent drops too, so if we get a full drop in the meantime, even better.”

The man in the hood.

Though he wore the guise of a human, there was no doubt that beneath that hood lay the face of a devil more wicked than anyone.

Upon hearing that she would have to endure the pain of soul destruction 100 more times.

“I, I was wrong…! Please forgive me…!”

Tynia, having completely lost her will to fight, fell to her knees.

After all, if 100 soul fragments were collected, she would be forcibly created anyway…

‘Sorry, Demon Lord…’

With a hint of guilt.

She handed over something she had been hiding.

[5-star “Bewitching Demon” Tynia Conversion Contract]

The man who took the paper.

“Oh, lucky.”

With words that showed no trace of human compassion.

“Y-you devil…!”

Tynia, forgetting even her own nature, ended up praising her new master shamelessly.
