Legend

Proceed from where the water monkey attacked you for about an hour. When Arla's sword cut open the bushes that existed as if they were hiding something, she finally found what Ray and the others were looking for.

Sarah and flowing rivers. The water is transparent and some fish can also be seen swimming.

"... Now what about the fact that there's a river in the dungeon anyway? Where do you think we're going to get if we go upstream?

Ver asks nobody while lightly checking the river water with the medication he had.

"I think it's wrong to ask the dungeons for common sense in the first place. I've stopped thinking deeply."

Ara returns the sword in her hand, trying to escort Ver like that, and Ver smiles bitterly just wondering if that's the case too.

"Okay. End of inspection. Dear Elaine, I don't have any problems with the quality of the water in particular, so you can drink it."

"Right, good luck. Well... where to camp..."

Elaine looks around after praising Ver.

The waterfront is definitely supposed to be a monster's drinking area, and it's like saying if adventurers are camping well in a place like that, attack them.

For this reason, it is desirable to be close to the water field and not noticeable from the surroundings...

"Grrrrrrrr"

Seto throats and approaches Elaine, who was exploring what was going on around her.

"What's up, Seto? Tell Ray if you're hungry. I don't have anything to eat."

"Gru."

No, so Seto turns to the woods near the river. Elaine also turned her gaze to those who were pointing that gaze at her, but she had no idea what she was showing.

"Ray, do you know what Seto's talking about?

"Probably found the right place for the camp for Seto."

"... Seto tells you that?

"You're smarter than a regular monster. I can't speak words because of structural problems, but I understand these words."

"Hmm. Then why don't we just go get it?"

Whimpering, followed as Custe panicked where he took one step.

"Dear Elaine! No matter how much Elaine is strong, don't be impotent to head into the woods alone! Not to mention, no matter how smart you are, exploring places like the one the monster showed..."

"... Custe. I do find your loyalty pleasing. But I'm not impressed that you don't trust the person you're partying with."

"But!

"Ha, well. I grew up in a nobleman. I know you won't change your mind any time soon. If you're so worried, follow me.... Ray, you too. Ver and Ara stay alert to what's going on around here."

"Huh? Am I waiting here too!?

It was Arla whining like she was obstinate somewhere, but Elaine leads Seto in whatever it takes to follow Custe and Ray to the woods.

"Dear Elaine, you've changed a bit since you joined Lord Ray."

To Ara, who grunts bossly, Ver, who was nearby, gives an unexpected look.

"Really? As far as I'm concerned, it's the same as always."

"Aren't you out of your mind? If you've ever been Master Elaine, oh, you never would have believed what anyone else had to say, would you?

"But that's because you're someone else or you're a thamed monster, right? Besides, it's important that we actually camp somewhere."

"... I really hope that's all"

Arla's gaze, whining somewhere lonely, was following Elaine's back as she entered the woods.

Next to it, Ver is policing his surroundings with discipline as he flaunts his shoulders with no treatment.

"Gru."

Into the woods, for a few minutes. The place where Seto stopped was in front of a giant tree with a sinus open enough for just a few people to enter the trunk.

It's not like there's a monster lurking in the trunk just because it's loaded with dead leaves, or some kind of carcass being thrown away.

"... I feel it's too convenient..."

Elaine was surprised at the location for the camp just because it was found at this time, but it was also true that she was quite tired because it had already been about 10 hours since she entered the dungeon, and eventually decided to camp here.

Most importantly, Ray's statement that Seto's senses can be trusted was a strong boost. Beside it, Custe was still in a mood.

After that, we were to bring two people, Ara and Ver, this far to get ready for camp quickly. Somehow it was evening when I said it was in the dungeon.

"... really, what's going on with the dungeon? I can still convince you if there's just a light that looks like the sun, but I just didn't think it was reproduced until dusk or night."

Whimpering as Ver shrugged as he looked up at the orange-dyed sky in a burning sunset.

"Like I said, it's pointless to think about that in a dungeon."

"No, I know by reason. But even if we don't reproduce how the sun goes down like this..."

Ray opens his mouth as he gathers the firewood he needs to cross the night and listens to Ara and Ver talking.

"If it's a good guess, I can explain why, you hear me?

"Is that true!? Just let me know if you can guess. Hey, that's right, I was just a wizard apprentice and I'm not like some direct swordsman."

"Hey, Ver! That's about me!?

"Well, I don't know. Well, if you're conscious of yourself, maybe you are."

That's how it was Ver making fun of Ara, but Elaine pinches her mouth when she comes out with things like grass and dead trees that were nearby and in a tree sink.

"Ver, don't make too much fun of Ara. Ray, I'm interested in your guess, too. If you don't mind, let me hear it."

Ray finds it uncomfortable that she is doing chores, both while nodding at Elaine's words and still being the Duke's Lady.

I even asked frankly about the area, but it was only returned to me that 'it is the General who moves and his men go on'.

Also, Custe, who should never want to do chores because of his pride as an aristocrat, is not willing to skip just one of himself when he sees Elaine, his boss, taking the initiative.

Ray also had no choice but to be convinced of Elaine's words once again, precisely if the general were to move and his men were to be shown a real example of following it.

"Well, it's not that difficult. You know the nucleus of the dungeon is transporting monsters to protect us."

"Uh-huh. Find out about the dungeon when your father gave you this order, and then..."

"Then you'll see, a monster to transfer is something that originally lived outside. I mean, I was living a life of mornings and nights, but what do you think would happen if they suddenly let me move into the dungeon? Even if thoughts are implied and brainwashed in some way when they metastasize, there is a good chance that the parts of the body that can be described as instincts that have been stained by living until now in the morning and night can't be helped just by implication or brainwashing. I can't help but think of a different environment in the dungeon, but as you can see, the time of life can be managed, so it's my guess that the result of thinking about the monster's physical condition is that... Of course, I know there are holes."

"... surely a monster who is supposed to protect the dungeon doesn't have the power of a corner to help if he gets sick"

Elaine snorted when she heard Ray explain, but opened her mouth like she noticed something.

"But if Ray's guessing is on, why don't we just keep everything in the dungeon close to the outside environment? For example, the first or second basement was a normal dungeon, and the third basement was a place where mushrooms were grown. The Lizardman who fought there basically lived on a water field. Considering that, you still seem to have a lot of holes, like you said yourself."

"Right. Perhaps it is wrong to think of the idea of the nucleus of the dungeon as a person in the first place. Or maybe the nucleus has a clear criterion for judgment as a nucleus...... and you talked too much. It's getting dark, and let's get ready for camp early."

"Right. I'm not happy to be ready for camp in the dark."

Elaine nodded and hurried to get ready for camp to see if the other faces were in agreement.

"Item boxes are handy to make."

They were freshly made and hot utensils in a pan I removed from mystering. Squeeze like Elaine was impressed as she carried a lot of stew into her mouth.

That's what I should say, Duke's Lady, when I said it was a dinner we were having at night camp. The trick was sophisticated.

In admiration of the trick, Ray also carries freshly baked bread into his mouth, which he has just served out of the mistering.

"Sure, because the slowest leg when the Knights or something marches is the Supply Squad. If anyone has an item box, I'm pretty sure the march speed will jump a few times."

As usual, it's Ver who opens his mouth in a light tone. The hand is gripped with a skewered Poison Toad back leg and a glass of wine.

Of course, it is light enough to say that wine is almost no different than juice because it is camped in the dungeon at night.

Regarding the skewering of poison toad, it may have been retrieved by the Rays on the first basement floor. Ver himself knifed it and burned it with a burning fire in front of him using the sauce stored in the mistering.

Ara and Custe also have a mouthful of freshly prepared dishes served from Mystering.

Next to enjoying such a sumptuous dinner, which is not very much, but does not seem like a kind of meal to consume in the dungeon, there was likewise the appearance of Seto eating a roast of Lizardman defeated on the third basement floor, looking delicious.

It should be noted that it is still stored inside the mysteries for the reason that it is valuable in terms of Lizardman General and giant spiders.

As for Ray and Seto, he seemed very unfortunate because eating Lizardman's Demon Stone did not acquire any skills, but he seems to have had no problems with the taste of the meat. Seto is in the mood and eating Lizardman's meat with his throat ringing.

So Elaine opens her mouth after eating a lot of stew and bread.

"Well, this is how it went into the night camp... what do we do with the watch? It's common in the military to have guard units replaced in a matter of hours."

The fact that the gaze is geared toward Ray probably means you want to hear what to do in the case of adventurers. Judging by that, Ray answers the question.

"Basically, I don't think you mind the same as that. However, unlike the regular army and other adventurers, we have Ceto, so I was wondering if there was anything to worry about."

Ray strokes Seto's torso as he bites and chops the tail of a roasted Lizardman as he grunts and throats.

Note that the tip of the crusade proof site was thoroughly cut off from the tail of the Lizardman that Seto was eating.

"Somehow when Seto's five senses are sharp, they're so sharp that they're not comparable to humans, and Seto himself will defeat them, unless some monster attacks them or that's the boss of the dungeon or something. … However, it is advisable to take turns with Seto one by one for when something happens."

"That helps, but then we won't have time to rest Seto's body?

"I was wondering if I needed to worry about that area. Basically, those five senses work all the time even when you are resting on your body, and in the case of Seto, it has no effect at all on its ability to do so all night for about a few days because it is a high ranking monster called Griffon.... Well, Seto himself doesn't hate sleeping, so I prefer not to stay up all night... unless it's a night camp"

"Hmm. Then I'll try to let Ray's words sweeten me. You don't mind?

Elaine looking around with that said. Ver welcomed that it could be easier, and Arla did the same again. Custe said something somewhat. He looked like that, but since he had actually traveled through the city of Gilm, he had seen Seto's excellence many times, so there was nothing like words in his mouth.

"You don't seem to have a problem. Shall we set the order of our watches? Do you mind if we start with places like Ara, me, Custe, Ver, Ray?

It was in that order that she was told to rush as if it was nothing, but Ara and Custe, who had heard it, opened their mouths almost reflexively.

"You don't have to do that, Master Elaine, to keep an eye on you! Leave it to us."

"I agree with Ara. Even the Duke's Lady won't have to keep an eye out."

"I know what you two are worried about, but I think we're going to continue camping at night in the dungeons for at least a few days. Yet it would be pitiful that I would not even be able to keep an eye on him or her. Remember, it's not the same thing to worry about and spoil."

"Shit!

It was also a custe to try to recruit, but I just had to shut up when I could turn my sharp gaze to Elaine.

Thus, both Custe and Ara were to acquiesce that Elaine would keep an eye on them with disapproval.

And the line will be celebrating an evening in the dungeon.
