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

"Wow."

Eleventh floor underground in the labyrinth.

Ten new adventurers were opening their mouths and scowling at a grassland field with clear blue skies and long idle meadows going on everywhere, hitting and changing from a dim cave field to the tenth floor of the basement.

"You're so different."

"It's worth coming out of the country just to see this sight."

"Idiot! What if you're frightened! Get Depp to the city hospital or he'll die."

"It was!

They all look a little younger than me with boys and girls about fifteen.

One of them taps the boy's head next door and embraces another boy who fell to the ground.

"What do you think I've been doing chores for nearly a month and storing money for? Though I'd buy gear to fight in the Labyrinth for a thousand bucks! Our battle is coming."

"Yes, but... you have it all the way to the city."

The boy who fell to the ground was bleeding heavily from his abdomen, not very much, but did not appear to hold until he reached the city.

Plus the other members were exhausted after fighting.

"We thought we were strong too by defeating demons..."

"Actually, it would have been easier if you had been up there goblins or something."

"But the boss..."

On the tenth basement floor is Hygoblin, the boss of Cave Field.

The level is also as low as 15, and a few powerful adventurers who can reach the 10th basement can defeat it if they work together. But in their case, it didn't seem like it could be intact.

Hygoblin comes down from above with a giant more than two metres tall, unlike previous goblins. If you take an attack like that with a cheap weapon, you'll be useless as soon as possible. Apparently it was a cheap weapon, and everything was cracked.

"What am I supposed to do?"

"But there's no way you can abandon Depp"

"That's why I'm in trouble."

The new adventurers, who had not brought the means of recovery, were in trouble.

"I'm tired too."

"Me, too."

Several boys and girls have sat down on the ground.

There's no such thing as being attacked by demons if you're distracted because demons don't appear near the metastatic crystals they are, but people who take money away from distracted newcomers just want you to be careful.

I have no choice.

Is it time to leave?

"Is there a cure (potion) if you like?

"What about you?

"I'm an adventurer in Alistair, just like you guys."

"... you've never seen it"

"Well, you haven't shown your face to the guild because it was yesterday that you've been out the last few days and you've come home"

If it's true, I was going to relax in the morning, but I got a report from the labyrinth nucleus (dungeon core) that there are newcomers challenging the boss to jump to the labyrinth.

The room with the boss is closed to anyone but parties, so normally no one else can figure out what's going on inside, but being a labyrinth owner (dungeon master), I was given a peek from the outside in a labyrinth tone.

As a result, he was to be seen severely injured by hygoblins.

"Who among you can use restorative magic?

"... not here"

There are ten of them and only three of them even have magical aptitudes. The other seven are avant-garde.

To be honest, it's just a party I think I'm licking the labyrinth.

Too many at a time when the ten of us are acting in the first place.

The labyrinth is a vast place like Meadow Field, so there's a narrow passage for about five people to move around, so there's too many of them. Now the battle with Hygoblin had not been able to take advantage of the large number of people because the ten of us were just surrounded and unable to move around.

If you're going to fight at a party, you have to think about balance.

And if there's no one who can use healing magic, we have to secure another means of healing.

"You didn't bring your recovery pills?

"Well, I don't have that kind of money..."

I can't tell you about people because the first day I dived into the labyrinth, too, I just wore minimal gear.

Still, I didn't imitate trying the boss on day three like they did because I was going to turn back right away.

"If you're gonna dive into the labyrinth, you're gonna need a minimum of recovery."

"Will you?

Recovery pills will be necessary for them, who are wounded and consuming up to their health.

Even for me, it's cheaper to provide a healing pill than to remember fear against the labyrinth and as many as ten people will no longer come.

"Except one silver coin per bottle."

"You're taking the money!

One of the boys barks at getting paid, but I'm not a charity either.

Besides, the price is the price of conscience.

One silver coin would be cheaper.

"But you're going to use the silver coins you got because of this for your recovery pills?

"I would normally buy recovery pills in the city for about that price. He's trying to sell it to us with no transportation costs to this point."

"I can't replace Depp's life."

"Ugh..."

Seems like he's in favor of giving money to a boy who's seriously injured, except for a boy who needs a lot of money.

"... ok"

In the end, I decided to give the Depp boy a healing pill because he couldn't replace his buddy's life.

He then decided to buy four more bottles because he was draining his strength.

Remove the recovery medicine from the storage ring.

The new adventurers seemed suspicious of the recovery pills that suddenly appeared out of nowhere, but when I explained that I had taken them out of a magic tool called a storage ring, one of them began to squeeze his courage and take them.

I seem to have run out of silver coins I got from the crate, but I have demon stones that I defeated the demons and got, so selling them would make enough money.

"Not at all, are you still in this business"

One adventurer approached me when I was beside the boys, also accompanied by an escort.

The adventurer was a big man with a big sword on his back, wearing a vest over a thin shirt, and a barbarian grown man.

"Huh...?

I noticed the moment I moved to the eleventh basement, but the tired new adventurers didn't seem to notice.

"It's not another problematic act, is it?

"Right. Sell merchandise at a fair price to a guy in trouble in the labyrinth. It's normal business."

Once upon a time, we sold restorative drugs to adventurers who needed a long exploration due to urgent requests.

If you dare, it means that the healing drugs you sell are inexpensive healing drugs that you can't sell in the store.

Thanks to this, there is revenue from selling at a fair price.

"Um, Mr. Gansas, a B-rank adventurer, right?"

"Yeah, but?

"I admire you. Once upon a time, Mr. Ganzas' party slaughtered me one by one with a sword in their hands where our village was in trouble with the monster that was raging nearby."

"Right."

Mr. Gansas was being incited to smile.

"You guys, the labyrinth is a dangerous place, but it's a stable hunting ground where you can't even get hurt if you're well prepared. If you're going to use this lesson to challenge a dangerous place, be prepared before you try."

'Yes!'

Everyone was nodding about whether a penetrating veteran like Mr. Gansas said it was more convincing than a guy like me who was just a senior a year.

"Um, sounds rude to ask..."

"What?

"Is it possible to win a thousand dollars in the labyrinth?

A boy annoyed by the gold relationship had been asking Mr. Gansas just now.

There is talk that the labyrinth is the best place in the Arkanam region if you are after a thousand bucks.

In fact, it's not a mistake because I dreamed of grabbing a thousand bucks and trying to get to the labyrinth.

"It's possible. Some crates are packed with gold, not silver coins. Sometimes there are more expensive magic tools in there than that, so it's worth a try."

"More than gold coins..."

I have accidentally swallowed my spit at that amount.

I don't know how much you crave, but I can tell you that if you got a chest full of gold coins, you got a lot of money.

"If you're dreaming of winning a thousand bucks, he's better suited than me."

"This guy, is he?

"Yeah, 'cause you're the guy who actually got expensive magic tools and climbed up to A-rank adventurers in a year."

"Hey!?

I was surprised because I just didn't think they'd say anything about me.

Besides, it's strange that Mr. Gansas knows the fact that he was promoted to A-rank even though he didn't stop by the guild.

"The Alliance Master bragged that a new A-rank Adventurer had emerged."

"Really?"

I wanted to keep it as secret and calm as possible, but I can't seem to.

"Is it really possible to win a thousand dollars?

"True. In my case, I could have gotten an S-ranked sword and a storage ring with a coat so I could keep fighting my opponent stronger than myself. If you're aware, you're an A-rank adventurer."

For apparent reasons, the new adventurers have turned their sparkling gaze.

"Let me talk to you more about it!

After all, the A-rank adventurer appeared attractive and wanted to listen to me.

We're talking about how we can target a thousand bucks.

"The aim is the day after the full moon when structural change takes place. It's normal to hide a treasure chest like the one with a lot of money hidden, so it's one hand to fight demons while searching for a treasure chest in the upper hierarchy without money and raise the level with tricks."

"I see."

I want them to take their time down the labyrinth.

There will be more magic gained from that, and it will be more efficient after you build up the level in action.

"As for today, when I go home and redeem the Demon Stone, I'll be well prepared before I try the labyrinth. That's my senior's lesson."

Helping new adventurers moves to the bottom.

Mr. Gansas apparently needed to get the material he could only get on the eleventh basement floor, so he just walked away from us.

All the party members were gathered at the bottom level.
