When I woke up the next morning, Miyoshi was already awake and was starting to organize his luggage.

"Hmm." []/(exp, adv) (uk) (uk) (uk) happily ever after/"

Waking up her upper body rubbing her sleepy eyes, she said with a subtle tone that seemed stunned and interesting.

"Good morning. Yes, senpai. I thought it was soft last night."

"Last night?"

"In the camp, you can handle the rumors of the Devil.

Mayu?

When I thought of the question mark in a conversation that didn't have a point, I listened to the details and turned blue.

Apparently, the cave was connected to the outside with gaps.

"What's wrong with you?

"Let's do that. Then there was the shrine. Looks like it was off-limits."

"Yeah? Wasn't it just the summit?

Think about it, it hits almost directly below the Batian. Because the map is flat, it is not strange to include it.

We were not at all aware of it when we came here twice. I heard it was the summit of the mountain, so there's nothing I can do to misunderstand it.

"So nobody's here, and there's no news of the accident?"

"When I see that temple, I usually want to explore it."

"And in the end, the trap in the last room will automatically take you to Encai."

"Countries seem to be divided on whether or not to touch that untouchable area."

"We warned Simon and there's nothing more we can do."

"What? Surprisingly dry. Someone could die.

Judging from Simon and the others, none of them will actually survive Encai's counting.

Unless you're lucky enough, you won't even be able to escape.

"After reading the militia materials, if countries want it at their own risk, there's nothing they can do for a single Explorer."

Well, that's true.

Besides, we're not on the side of justice.

All you have to do is do what's within your reach.

"I can't be heroic enough to risk my life or that of someone I know to help a stranger."

Miyoshi, who heard that, said while smiling.

"That's what senpai does sometimes."

"Pull over."

"So how was your neck and tail?

Miyoshi, who had finished rounding the mat small, asked while packing it in a bag.

For now, there are two mining units, and one for ground magic, night vision, and dexterity.

"Oh, that's a full set. How many bodies did you take down?

"401, including the last two digits."

"Amazing! In such a short time."

"Range magic is amazing. Well, only in front of the temple."

"It looks like it can be used on even ten floors, but there's no clumsy orb, right there."

I see. It's just... "

"What is it?

"I was a little fucked up."

"Was that bad?

I explained to Miyoshi what happens when he releases all his strength.

"You're trapped in the feeling of something getting used to your body, and when you release your strength, you feel the pleasure?

Well, yes.

Miyoshi sat down on a bag full of mats.

"I think the pleasure of sifting the overwhelming power is more or less physical or like power.

"But you're not gonna get caught up in that."

"Senpai is so introspective, isn't it okay?

"Hmm...."

"Besides, if you're feeling better, I'll punch you in the back of the head. With an iron ball."

He took out an 8 cm iron ball on his palm and said so while sticking it out.

"No, if I get hit with that, I'll die... but it's not bad, I wonder where to ask you."

"Leave it to me."

I felt a little lighter.

"So, is everybody awake already?

"What do you want for breakfast?

"Let's fool around with a sandwich. It's the morning of the second day, so even if fresh groceries still come out, I guess that's how it is."

"Roger that. Let's dress up here and carry it."

I laid a wrap on yesterday's iron plate and lined up the sandwiches and fruits neatly.

"Do you want me to put in some coffee?

"No, you take it seriously. Senpai, please have some hot water."

Okay.

When I said so, I left the tent with an iron plate.

It was just around 7: 00, after activities had already begun in the other camp. Though somewhat idle, there seemed to be a good number of people staying at the camp.

"Good morning."

Mr Wheat and Mr Sandai were already ready.

"I've put the tent together."

There were mats and tents that were neatly decomposed and rounded.

"Thank you. Now, this is breakfast. You can eat first."

That's why I put the iron plate on the stone.

The third generation who saw it said, "Wow! Mr. D Powers is risking his life for dungeon dinner..."

I made a fool of myself by laughing, "Well, we don't need water, so we can have a lot of ingredients."

I pretended to pack my luggage in my backpack while they were eating.

Miyoshi, who folded the tent, also brought our luggage, so it's the same. Instead, I took out a 1.5L kettle, filled it with 100-degree water and gave it to her.

"Thank you."

That said, Miyoshi began to drip into a magic jar instead of a server. The scent of aromatic coffee starts to drift around.

Mr. Wheat was giving Ustura a magic crystal while he was watching him last night.

If you look at this,

"You're so elegant."

"Mr. Hayashida?

Shibushi Hayashida stood there in a fully-equipped exploration style.

"Over there, it was a big fuss about last night's incident, and this is a different world."

"Oh, what about the Devil King?

"That's right. If you know it, then calm down, you guys."

"Because we can't do anything. And I'll be right out of the eighteen floors."

"Are you leaving? I thought you were here to pick up mining.

"No, I'll leave that to you."

Linda frowned surprisingly.

They're wondering what the hell they're doing here.

"So, what can I do for you?

"Oh, no. I was wondering if it would be okay if there was a commotion last night."

"Oh, you're worried. It's okay. Thank you very much."

"No, no, that's fine."

A few moments later, a companion called out to Hayashida, who seemed a little lit up.

"Hayashida!"

"Oh, I'm coming!

Well, I don't know where you're going, but be careful.

"That's it. Don't let the Demon King crush you."

Say it.

And Linda waved away without looking back.

"Maybe he's a surprisingly good person."

I see. It's chala though. "

It's still part of Yoyogi's top team. We'll see each other again.

We dropped off Shinji, who was walking refreshingly.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

We started moving down the stairs to leave the eighteenth floor.

At that time, a man with a strange sense of tension was staring at the Batian with incredible eyes.

Miyoshi, do you know who that is?

The two of Maitreya reacted unexpectedly to the conversation in the prelude that I used for the first time and saw the man.

The man noticed it and looked at us for a moment, but immediately turned his gaze back towards the Batian.

(Probably Mr. Dmitry.)

(somewhere....)

(Senpai... Dmitri-Nernikov. I'm the second-largest person in the world. of Russia)

(Oh, he did. But he's no good. Looks like some sort of road seeker. I feel like I'm going to attack Enkai in the future.....)

(That's exactly how it feels.)

(Miyoshi, stop him like a Weissman with an appraisal. You're going to die in vain.)

The third generation who heard that unexpectedly interrupted.

You're not inciting it?

Well, if that's what they say....

(I mean, if you keep it that way, you're definitely going there? You'd have a bad dream if you left him alone. I don't have enough name value, Miyoshi! Please!!)

Miyoshi is not a Weissman makeup, but this must be the first and the last time she sees a Dmitry.

Probably all right.

(Here, senpai. I knew it.)

Miyoshi remembered the conversation this morning and laughed slightly, calling out to the Dominic.

"Gaspardine Nelnikov"

Didn't you hear Dmitry or look back at Miyoshi?

I have some advice from Weissman. Now you're just going to die. "

When he heard that, Dmitry turned to look at Miyoshi with no expression at all.

Not enough stats. You probably won't even notice he's dead. You can't chew your elbows even if they're near you. "

It sounded quite agitating, but his expression stood like no wave on the surface of the windless Baikal Lake.

And I said, "Did you go?" and opened his mouth.

Miyoshi did not answer and shrugged his shoulders.

I gave you my advice. I just don't want you to die. "

That said, Dmitry kept an eye on Miyoshi as he headed down the stairs to the lower level.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Down the stairs to the 19th floor, Sandai said, "It was kind of like a movie! I was excited.

"Besides, Mr. Dmitry was such a tough guy. It's different from Simon....."

I thought about it when I resumed at Yoyogi, but Sandai is quite a meeha.

In time, I feel like saying something like Dmitry x Simon, and it's a little bad. Don't let me see your good friend.

The bottom of the night turned white when I went down the stairs to the nineteenth floor.

The 19 and 20 layers of ice and snow are separated into snow-capped areas and non-snow-capped areas, with snow accumulation at a determined depth for each area.

The staircase-to-staircase route was constructed by connecting snow-free areas as much as possible.

"It seems that there is a 2.8m fresh snow area along the way when you connect it in a straight line."

Well, you can't do that with a pot-foot.

"No, no, senpai. Even snowshoes are definitely impossible."

Many snowy mountain equipment is heavy. There can be no Explorers who bring such things for just two floors, and this is a layer that is often largely ignored except between routes.

There is a reality that there are few Explorers who can come this far in the first place.

I hope there will be more of them in the future.

"Let's hope for Kathy."

At that time, Mr. Wheat pointed to a place like a shallow snow-capped plain and said, occasionally pointing to a small mountain.

"What is that?

It looks like a monster.

Said Mr. Sandai, who seems to have checked it out.

"Monster? Is that it?

"Snow Army Large seems to have an individual standing still in the snow. When I got close, I..."

As soon as Gulm approached one of them and tried to smell the cum and the hill, a rabbit jumped nearly 80 cm from inside and stormed Gulm with its horn.

Oh, it's going to be.

Hehe

Gulm lightly grasped the attack and instead bit the aluminum lazie's neck.

They're much stronger than just Hellhounds, after all.

Of the monsters appearing in this ice layer, only Snow Aluminum Large appeared in the route between the stairs.

Humanoid, yeti and abominable appear in areas with poor snowfall visibility, and ice scrollers appear in snow-capped areas close to 1 m.

We passed through the ice and snow without any major obstacles.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

"Well, gentlemen of Maitreya."

Just a few steps down the stairs to the 21st floor, I gathered them together.

There's probably a militia communications unit on the side of the stairs.

"What is it, Yoshimura-san? Change."

The third generation asked with a strange face.

"This exploration is live from here."

"Huh? You wanted us to use the orb, didn't you?

At first, it was, but there was a bit of a situation.

"Situation?"

I explained to them that if I poured out a warm drink from a magic bottle and gave it to everyone, they might be conscious of the decision to drop the ore.

"Eh, is that true?

That's what Mr Wheat told me as he trembled.

"Well, for now, there's only one phenomenon that I can think of..."

"Khiahh! That means you can choose any stone you like!?

My dialogues were interrupted by her exploding joy.

She is delighted to jump on the snow with Ku, like a rabbit.

"Well, yes... all the gems on the floor are a little... hey, are you listening?

"Senpai, we made a mistake."

"No, hey, I feel that way too... well, the way I'm happy is similar to Miyoshi."

"Huh?

This one comes with a spinning drill dance.

I had no choice but to remove the two oven cases from the balance pack.

The three generations who saw it caught my face.

So, this is it.

"... what is this?

"Without this, the ore won't drop."

"No way, mining?! Yeah? What, this time?!

The third generation who touched it and confirmed it shouted with surprise.

If you believe in the orb count, it just dropped last night. It's a freshly picked up slack.

"Probably because exploring minerals will be the main business for Maitreya for some time to come...."

"Yeah? You mean you work in the 20th floor or higher?

She said so anxiously.

Although it is common enough this time, I am a member of a party that until recently operated on five to nine levels. You will be anxious.

In that regard, the first wheat experience after the third floor was more calm.

"It would be tough for two people to live in a tent, and we're going to have a safe base."

Miyoshi said it was done at the beginning of this year. It is a simple base facility with anti-slime measures.

Unlike Dolly, who was prepared in time, the facility was designed as a house, and its name was DP-House.

When I asked if it was a Dungeon Powers House, I thought it was a provider house everywhere. No, no matter what you think, it's definitely a trap.

Anyway, it's a gem worth 250 million yen. Now there are two houses in Miyoshi's hangar.

Beyond that, I was a little worried about the weight. The limits of the vault are still unknown.

I was also going to visit the planned construction site of the DP house this time.

Mr. Wheat said, "I'm starting to enjoy quitting people! I used mining as a pleasure.

Sandai said, "I'm a little scared to leave people," and probably used mining.

Seeing it settle down, I took two more oven cases out of the balance pack.

"Still using something?!

As if you were already surprised and tired, Mr. Sandai said so secretly.

"That said, both VITs are dangerous as normal people."

Use Orbs are Physical Immune.

"In fact, Yoshimura-san, don't you have the skills to make skill orbs that you like?

That's what the third generation said while receiving the orb with the jito eyes.

"No, if you have such a useful skill, I'll make it more flashy."

"That's true... but there's some kind of limitation"

With her bumpy ass, Mr. Wheat was using an orb to pose.

So we finally got to the 21st floor.
