Dungeons for the Devil, Dungeons for the Core (Book Version Title: A Different World Dungeon Made with the Devil)

"Peter, I've got your help."

There are two submissive demons - still candidates, to be exact - that Crowe, who have metastasized, said so and removed from his nostrils.

The lizard is shaded exactly like the ground in the wasteland, with pointy projections covering the surface of the body you want to flatten.

On the other hand, this is also a third mouse with body hair in shades similar to the ground in the wasteland.

Both are small - creatures to the point of being on the palm.

"Master Crowe... is that...?

"Oh, a reliable helper. I haven't given him a name yet. These guys will be able to get close enough not to be distracted by the adventurers to listen to something."

At first it was a peter who felt disappointed and weak, but if it did come in this size and protective color, he might approach the adventurers without being distracted. In the unlikely event of being distracted, it would be merely lizards and rats, and there would be no cause for suspicion or alarm. It also seems like the best selection when you think about it... and most importantly, Crowe's submissive candidate. It's not just lizards and rats anyway.

"So...?

"Ah. I'll use my transfer to send it to the surface... but before..."

Crowe uses Dungeon Magic to secretly change the shape of Odrant's surface - which is actually part of a clean dungeon - just a little bit. We're adding a few small voids to the surface so that the two of us can escape in the unlikely event. Take maximum measures to ensure survival beyond sending them on dangerous missions. It was normal for Crowe.

The two who are willing to take Crowe's expectations, but only calmly and quietly approach the adventurers to listen to the conversation. Although it was originally a fictional illusion, there was no creation in the two excellent bodies.

"... what do you think, anything unusual?

"I was just passing by when I was here before... even though they said it was a change, I honestly don't know if it was possible... but for now, nothing seems unnatural."

"Same here. There's nothing wrong with that."

Visitors to Odrant were adventurers who had traveled north on the central street from the Wang capital Vinstadt. They are at the request of Nil's Adventurer Guild to see if there is anything dangerous between Nil and Renville.

"But... from what I've seen so far from Renville, there was no such thing as a weirdo..."

"But what kind of troop went missing?

"Not officially recognised... maybe"

"There should be a cause for them to disappear... is that what you're trying to say?

"Well. There may be something... so we've been asked to investigate?

"If it's Nil's guild, I'm sure he wants it to prove nothing."

"It's just possible that the cause is gone?

"... is that a dragon? You said you went out to Shrek?

"Maybe Skeleton Wyburn."

"You're saying Shrek's monsters are coming out all the way around here?

"Speaking of nearby dungeons, I guess Pitt is the one...... just when the monster of Pitt comes out, you'll notice the Nil guys. First of all, there's no dragon out there, is there?

"It seems like things have changed before, so it would be awkward (first) to make that decision... but Shrek, who has already confirmed Dragon and Skeleton Wyburn, would be the real deal"

"Hang on... why are Shrek's monsters coming to this place again?

"So... exploring it is part of the mission."

"But there's no sign of it, is there? If you come here every now and then, it's no surprise that there are so many traces..."

"... Troops likely got eaten by a dragon or something that occasionally (by chance) wanted to go through here... you mean?

"Don't get me wrong. The dragons are just an imagination. The only thing we can report to you is that, so far, we haven't been able to confirm the existence of any danger, and we haven't been able to confirm any traces of giant monsters visiting the central streets frequently."

"There may be a monster round trip in Pitt and Shrek... so is this just an unfounded imagination too..."

"... hey, keep that imagination and all that stuff in, huh? I'm sorry they told me to go to the pit to find out why, huh?

What the two submissive demons (candidates) eavesdrop on is communicated to Crowe with Dungeon Magic as it is. Originally a skill used to communicate between dungeon masters and dungeon monsters, it seems possible to communicate even if you are a candidate.

"... What the hell is Nil's Adventurer Guild plotting?

I do not believe that it confirms the safety of the central street from Wang Du to Nil as part of Town Hing (Town Hall).

"Do I have to find out..."
