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

The next morning, not only are adventurers on the road when they get out of the tent, but even merchants see our tent with a subtle look. It's exactly what was left by the tent.

I know the cause.

"There's no punishment for these guys, either."

By the tent were the Leflans falling.

I set a trap that paralyzed the person who approached me with hostility, just like the first night. They tried to launch an attack within the night, even though they were hooked into the same trap on the first day.

"No, that sounds a little different"

Looking at the rolling body, I realized that there were objects that were slightly emitting magic.

It was a talisman when I took it out of my pocket to the rolling Leflan.

"Is that a talisman to disable paralysis?

I knew from the fact that even Alistair was normally sold that there existed a talisman that would keep me from getting this particular status anomaly.

Still, it was the first time I had seen the real thing.

Given our status, it was because I didn't feel the need at all to be poisoned a few times in the room where the crate was, so I didn't go buy it.

I heard the story, so it should have been a pretty expensive item.

Still falling under my paralysis, I guess, because my magic has worked beyond the limits of being able to deactivate the talisman.

For now, poise in the square in front of the ruins.

"Damn, that's lamentable"

When I dumped the Leflans, I ran into Iristia, who was equipped to head to the ruins.

"You must have been paying me back for my late first day."

"Exactly."

"It's hard to believe you're homecoming with someone like this."

Iristia is putting her hand on her forehead and meditating her eyes.

She is an adventurer of our age but valued for her strength without cheating like me. It is picturesque to see and mourn the adventurer of her homeland who went into such barbaric action.

"Don't think of Mr. Iristia like these people"

"Huh?"

A big swordsman who was around Illistia talks to me.

"Her strength is real"

"I believe that, so it's okay."

"What do you know about people you just met yesterday?"

"At first glance, there's something you can understand."

You think you'll use 'appraisal', for example?

The labyrinth magic appraisal did not allow the appraisal of the Iristian himself, but the appraisal could be used for the decorated sword with which the Iristian was wearing the sword.

- Holy Sword Hervol.

It was equipped with the holy sword I gave Ira and the sword of the same lineage.

Moreover, the fact that the 'appraisal' of labyrinth magic worked means that it is a holy sword from the labyrinth.

"It's a holy sword, isn't it?"

"Very well, sir."

"My people were equipped with the same holy sword."

"You know what?"

Look at Iristia equipped with the Holy Sword as she was convinced of something.

"But..."

"Of course her strength is not the only reason she has the Holy Sword. She has as much power as she deserves to have a holy sword. Different?

"That's right. She'd be able to do it as an A-rank adventurer even if she went to the border."

"Really? Don't hesitate to talk when you come to Alistair."

"Oh, I'll think about it when I get to go"

The swordsman was in a meeting with Iristia when he left me.

"Are you going to explore the ruins?

"Yeah, we're going upstairs because we're done exploring the ground floor within yesterday."

They're already finishing exploring the ground floor.

"This is about forty fine demon stones in a first floor exploration within yesterday. There's plenty of money on hand to get two other treasures out of the chest."

The same goes for the ability to defeat demons, but some of my people possessed the skills to open crates.

Iristia approached me with a gloomy face.

"What do you say? If you haven't finished exploring the ground floor yet, why not buy it?

What Iristia has been offering is one piece of paper.

On the paper, accurately, the map I drew depicted a staircase to ascend from the ground floor to the second floor of something inferior.

"Sorry, I don't want it"

Distract from your eyes immediately.

Yeah, I just took a look, but I remembered the general position of the stairs.

Even though it makes sense to explore for yourself.

"It's a shame. But I'm already making money because a pair of other parties bought me one gold coin."

"One gold coin!?

I suspect it's worth that much.

"You were the first to try the ruins."

"Oh, oh..."

"Still, I think I've already noticed in yesterday's exploration that demons in the ruins will not reappear"

I was aware of this.

The demon showed up in the middle of being lost, so I knocked it down, but then when I went down the same road, the demon never showed up.

I also realize that if that goes on a few times, it's a mechanism by which demons don't reappear.

"The treasure you get from the ruins is basically an early winner. It can even be a takeover due to the presence of many adventurers, such as the first floor. If you want to explore safely, you need to go back there quickly."

"I see."

Maybe the map is worth a piece of gold coin if you mean you can explore upstairs right away, not on the first floor.

And now we know why Leflan and the others tried to get back at us.

Speed becomes important in the search for ruins.

In the meantime, if they cannot take part in the first day of exploration, by the time they do, they will have already explored the ruins after the demons have been crusaded or just left open chests.

In a hurry, they chose to take it from us.

As a result, the non-participation was also decided on the second day.

"By the way, when are you planning to solve the paralysis?

"As early as night...... uh, what do you think?

This time, he had a talisman to prevent paralysis.

It didn't end up being useful, but it doesn't change that I had a talisman.

"There is also the possibility of waking up as early as evening"

"If that's the case, by the time you get back, you might be able to sell it for a high price."

It seems that Iristia has a hard time being a merchant while her combat skills as an adventurer are also strong.

If we think about their strength, we'll finish exploring upstairs by evening... maybe it's possible to finish exploring the third floor somewhat and come back.

On hand is a map that can be reached to the third floor.

I haven't been able to participate in a site search for two days in a row. What would they react to if they were shown a map?

You will not be rewarded for participating in the site exploration. Funds earned by selling demonic stones and treasures gained from exploring the site will be rewarded.

That's why we should show interest on the third floor, which has not yet been explored.

"Now if you'll excuse us because we have an exploration"

Iristia leaves with her head down.

"So what do we do?

Go back to the tent and check with your buddies as they prepare to explore the ruins.

They basically don't imitate against my decision, so I try to get their opinion first.

"What does that mean?

Sylvia asks, so she tells me what she plans to do today.

"First, we were supposed to explore the first floor yesterday."

"Right."

"But yesterday alone, the first floor is almost complete."

Aside from the Iristians, there will be other parties that have found stairs leading upstairs if they have been exploring for a long time.

I mean, that's all the ground floor was explored and exhausted.

"I guess you get experience just exploring, but don't you get tense exploring places with no treasures or anything at all?

"Perhaps so..."

So let's just go upstairs.

I know the general position thanks to the map that Iristia showed me earlier. You'll find it if you walk nearby.
