Chapter 48 – Let’s Explore the Neighborhood Dungeon! (4)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“It seems like that dungeon is hardly used.”
The morning of the next day.
After Mikuma finished the phone call with me, she investigated about dungeons and the Treasure Hunter Association with Saeki.
She moves quickly, I’m truly no match for her.
“It’s not used?”
“Yeah, the difficulty level is C-. The first explorer cleared it 16 years ago. Since then, nearly four thousand people have reached the top floor, and the route is also fixed. Most of the rare ores have been depleted, so it’s awaiting recovery, and it seems that the Treasure Hunters Association doesn’t attach much importance to it. In the case of an ordinary dungeon, association members are dispatched to check the visitors at the entrance, but now it’s unmanned.”
Then can we enter?
“Just in case, it is locked by magic so that ordinary people don’t get lost, so you have to manage somehow…”
“That’s why I’m going to open it. I’m going to drop you off anyways.”
What a truly shady rat… Why can you open it?
Mikuma sat in my room with the PC spread on the table, and Alba German sat next to the PC, eating cheese.
When Mikuma first saw Alba, she was surprised at the rat tribe that she only knew about from legends.
Let’s listen to that legend later.
It may lead to this guys weakness.
“If that’s the case, then there’s no problem. I don’t think it’ll take even half a day to simply get to the top floor. However, because of the recent events, there may be inspections soon. The existence of the dragon has been confirmed, so it’s better to hurry.”
“Ahh, there isn’t time left today, so I would like to go tomorrow. Can I get to the top floor in only half a day?”
“Yeah, unlike treasure hunters, you don’t need to do anything like collecting. Since it’s an orthodox shortcut transfer type dungeon, it won’t be too difficult if the route is fixed and the shortcut is still possible. It seems that if you don’t know the route it becomes quite a struggle.”
Even if you say orthodox…
I wouldn’t know because I have never seen any other dungeons.
“There are forty-six dungeons that have been confirmed in Japan. There are eight unconfirmed dungeons or should I say legends. Twenty-five places have been explored. The most difficult is a dungeon called『Fuji Grand Maze』, it’s in Shizuoka. It seems like not even one floor has been explored yet.”
I have heard of some of them.
“I know of『Aso Flame Labyrinth』, 『Sakai Reverse Tower』, 『Underground City Kyoto』, 『Furano Eternal Snow Ruins』 and 『Tokio Deep Dungeon』.
“It’s famous, eh. It hasn’t been conquered yet so there’s a lot of requests for it.”
It has been news for a while.
“So, that dungeon called Tusk Crag, has six types of monsters according to the Internet. There are four confirmed rare ores. It seems to be a type that has many soul grass and medicinal plants.”
Even if you say that, since I’m an amateur I don’t understand it.
“So, there’s a road there that leads to Aoi’s nest.”
“Yeah, it’s connected at the top floor, it’s at a hard to find place. Just with that information, you can pin point it, just search for hard to find places.”
As expected of Mikuma-san!
It’s completely different from my rough head!
“Nii-chan, I brought some tea.”
Shouhei knocked on the door.
When I opened the door, there were two cups of juice on a big tray.
There was also one small sake cup.
This cup was the one father used with dinner.
“Is rat-san okay with tea as well?”
“Ahh, thank you. I drink anything, I’m a rat after all.”
“Are you trying to act as a guest?”
Shouhei, I don’t need tea.
Bring me the salt! Mountain salt!
“What’s this bundle of paper?”
Shouhei, who put the tray on the table, looked at the binder next to Mikuma.
“It’s a map of that『Tusk Crag』dungeon. You really shouldn’t, but if you look online, there’s leaked information.”
No matter what industry it is, there’s always going to be bad guys, huh?
“I think it’s the real thing because it’s a map that was discussed pretty positively in the forums, but the thread is a little old. It took me a while to find this little bit of information.”
No, you’re amazing.
“No, it’s better than nothing, I appreciate it.”
I probably wouldn’t even be able to find it in half a year.
“Sorry, nii-chan. I’m going shopping for lunch. Ichika-neechan is pestering me to go together.”
Same as ever, is Saeki putting the moves on Shouhei?
That damn shotacon.
“Aah, take care.”
“Take care. Ichika-chan as well.”
Eh?
Mikuma-san, is your best friend that serious about Shouhei?
“Alright then, even if the difficulty is low, it’s still a dungeon. There’s still some danger. You have to be well prepared.”
The enthusiastic Mikuma opened the Treasure Hunters Association’s website.
“There aren’t many photos of fully equipped high-ranked hunters. Since they appear in the PR photos the association uses of the sites, let’s think about what’s necessary.”
Eeh?
Isn’t your train of thought like a profiler now?
This girl, is really capable…!
“U-um, Mikuma…”
“What?”
Yesterday, I called her on the spur of the moment and didn’t think about it.
When I collected myself, I realized it.
“I’m really sorry for relying on you about stuff regarding Aoi…”
That’s right.
Mikuma said that she liked me.
So to speak, she’s cooperating with me to help her rival in love.
Only Mikuma herself knows how tragic that is.
“Kunpei-kun, your tactlessness is enough to be surprising sometimes.”
Mikuma responded with a serious expression.
“Ooh, I-I’m ashamed.”
I couldn’t even object.
After all, as for females other than my mother, the most I have been in contact with was with the neighborhood aunties.
I’m ignorant to girl’s feelings, I lack sufficient study.
“Rather than saying it’s for Aoi-chan, it would be more right to say that this is the first time that Kunpei-kun has relied on me. Up until now it has just been me getting helped.”
Mikuma said and returned her eyes to the PC.
“I think that Aoi-chan is pitiable, she can’t even have her way with love, that’s too cruel for a girl.”
I could not read Mikuma’s emotions, so I peered at her face and saw it.
Large drops of tears overflowed from those eyes.
“Even I know that it’s a love that I have no chance of winning… Despite that, I can’t help but be glad because I was relied on. I’m an idiot, aren’t I?”
“Mikuma…”
I was stuck for a while searching for words to say to Mikuma.
