Dungeon Master Makeup Money (formerly known as Dungeon Master Funding)

"What, debt...?

Explain how it happened to my brother, Calaris, and his first voice was the same reaction as mine when the village chief asked me about the debt.

"Yes."

When I affirmed, I sat in a chair with my head in my arms.

Currently, I am in a city ruled by the Count Alistair, the person who lent me the money - I was pushing my mother and sister with me to my brother's apartment in Alistair.

Sometimes it was in the morning that they explained the debt to my mother and sister, and when I was ready for the brief, they caught the carriage leaving at noon and even put me on Alistair.

The reason I left the village was because I didn't want to leave the two of you in a place with a cold gaze.

My mother decided to leave the village considering the spiritual aspects of the two because my father had been ill since he went missing and my sister also had a bright personality but not that she was mentally strong.

By the way, I told him where I was going, and forgiveness from the village chief came out.

Since the destination is my brother's place, it is like practically the entire family being placed under the surveillance of the Count.

For a time, I've thought about keeping quiet about debt to avoid bothering my brother, but in case you think about it, you need a presence other than me that protects my mother and sister. nature and its counterpart is limited to his brother, a family other than two.

"I'm sorry. I'm surprised my father wasn't informed at all that he was missing"

"No, I'm the one who's sorry. I was tasked to be away while my brother was gone, and this is what happened..."

"No, at least you're nothing wrong. If your family's in trouble, I should have been the first to rush."

I should say as expected. My serious brother felt responsible.

But I thought my brother was the one who didn't do anything wrong.

He has been appointed an immediate knight by the Knights in the Count's arms and moved to the city of Alistair two years ago. At the breakup of the move, they say, "From now on, you're going to protect your family." I thought I was the one responsible for failing to keep that word.

"So why don't you stay for a while?"

"Right here?

I don't think I can even raise my brother's voice to his surprise.

The apartment room where my brother lived was built for the purpose of living alone. However, it is narrow because it lends the subject to economically wealthy counterparts, such as knights and people doing business, but there is a size that is fine for the four of us to live in. Some people still live with their families in the same apartment. This apartment, close to the city centre, was easier to spend than renting a poorly sized room on the extra edge of the land, etc., given the convenience, etc.

Still smaller than the entire home that was in the village.

I guess I was anxious as the person actually living compared to my life when I was in the village.

"I can't say luxury. Because we already have a conversation. However, the landlord in this room is my brother. If only your brother would..."

"No, let me offer you a place to live."

I guess that's how you take responsibility for being a brother.

"I just don't know how far we can work together on debt"

That's what I say. I try to fish the shelves in the back of the room with gossip and take out the bags. There's definitely a coin inside from the sound that was ringing when I took it out.

"I've been able to save some money over the last two years, so I can afford a few pieces of silver, but I haven't saved that much yet."

When I say knight, I rushed out and joined the group by scouts without any big connections, so I don't mean scattered goods because I also hang out with various senior knights, but there are many uses. Though a knight, he will be able to live a wealthy life for the first time since his birth. As a brother, he seemed to be struggling a lot now to make it easier for his family in the future when he was born.

"No, I'm gonna do something about the debt."

"But if you're a cheaper paying soldier than a knight, you're years ahead."

The village chief also told me that if I worked seriously, I should be able to pay it off one day.

But that will be more than a decade away.

Thanks to my credit, I was able to make debts at low interest rates, but on my salary I was just starting to work, I would be chased to repay my interest every month.

Maybe by then things would have changed, never been better than they are now, but it could have been worse.

"I've refused to talk about becoming a soldier. I don't want to do anything to protect that village."

Nobody believes I'm innocent while I take care of you.

It was now inconceivable that I wanted to protect the village inhabited by such villagers.

"So what do we do?

"I'm thinking about becoming an adventurer."

Adventurers - people who make a business out of doing anything like a shop, taking requests in an Adventurer's Guild that mediates requests, such as exorcising demons that appear outside the city from chores that even children can do, such as cleaning the city.

Among them, it was the presence of a labyrinth (dungeon) that I saw.

Labyrinth (Dungeon) - A place that has existed around the world for a long time and continues deep underground from an entrance made on earth. Inside, demons striking humans appear, and traps are set up to intercept intruders, making it a very dangerous place. However, treasure chests containing gems, powerful weapons and other items that can be called treasures emerge, and are also places where valuable ores and herbs can be collected.

It was a place where we could go for a thousand bucks, though dangerous.

Such a place was just outside Alistair's city.

"Danger, isn't it?

My brother, who belongs to the Knights of Alistair, naturally knew more about the labyrinth as well.

There are many adventurers who challenge the labyrinth for a thousand bucks. At the same time, however, there have been several adventurers who have not returned in the last two years alone. There was only a handful, such as an adventurer who was able to earn a thousand bucks.

"The danger is well known."

"What are you going to do if something happens?

An adventurer is basically self-inflicted.

If an accident occurs during a request and you get injured, the Adventurer Alliance, who brokered it, will not compensate you in any way. Unlike knights and soldiers who compensate me, including my family, for being injured at work and unable to work, or for dying.

"I've made up my mind."

I was going to have enough strength to challenge the shallow layers of the labyrinth because I've worked out so much so that I can work as a soldier.

If you're going to make enough money to pay off your debt in the shallow layers, you'll need to find a chest that looks like it's packed with gems, but you'll figure it out.

At least I'm not going to spend more than a decade paying off debts I don't remember.

"And being an adventurer is also to gather information."

"You mean your father."

My father's whereabouts are never known.

If you live in another city somewhere, an adventurer's guild with a lot of people in and out is better suited to gathering information. It seemed quick to become an adventurer myself in order to prepare handouts between various and adventurers.

"I've always been smart in my family about you. I don't think you're going to be impotent enough to worry about your family, but you're definitely going to come back under your family."

I decide to be prepared to act as an adventurer, taking the words of my brother, who was genuinely worried, unlike the cold gaze that had been directed at me by the villagers when I left the village.
