Let's Manage The Tower

"Zasan, right!

I jumped backwards aggressively on instructions from my buddies.

Shortly after that, a shadow about half my size jumped in.

It was a monster named Sail Rabbit that jumped in.

It's a pretty nasty monster because it has strong legs and jumps into the opponent from far away.

Even more troubling is that Sail Rabbit operates in swarms.

"...!! You bastard!"

Zasan waves his sword at the jumping Sail Rabbit, but unfortunately the slash cut through the sky.

The individual merged with a fellow as soon as the contact failed.

"Chi... shit. Three more."

There were six of them at first, so half of them have already been reduced.

Defeating three will not be a problem in itself.

But there is also a reason why Zasan and the others should hurry to defeat the remaining three.

Zasan's party is now in the Tower Dungeon Zone.

Since the creation of the administration, the management of the transfer gate has been transferred from the Crown to the administration, but the administration recently began using the shortened transfer gate to the dungeon area.

Naturally, there are conditions for using it, but it was a party that had already entered the dungeon zone once.

By the time it was announced, Zasan and the others were already in the dungeon, so I decided to thank them for letting me use it.

Other parties besides Zasan are attacking the dungeon.

Those adventurers have exchanged maps of the dungeon.

Thanks to this, the Dungeon's strategy has already progressed to five levels.

Considering the amount of time it took to get to the dungeon hierarchy, this is quite a pace, but there are good reasons for this.

In the first place, the adventurers who can reach the dungeon are more than medium-sized adventurers.

And the first hierarchy of dungeons is less powerful than zombies and skeletons.

For middle-aged adventurers and above, numbers can be a threat, but they don't gather as many because of the characteristics of dungeons.

That's why the strategy is going well.

They also interact with adventurers on maps together.

As a result, the strategy has progressed to five levels, but it was troubled from this level.

An intermediate-class monster named Sail Rabbit has begun to appear.

It was getting tougher and tougher to attack the boulder at the same tactical speed as before.

"Alright, that's it!

Zasan managed to defeat the last remaining Sail Rabbit and the battle was over for now.

Then it's up to Zasan and the other one to keep an eye on the surroundings.

Other members are stripping the sail rabbit.

Whatever monster, fur has a certain demand.

It's an important source of income for Zasan and the others.

"Which way do we go next?

Duncan, who was as vigilant as Zasan, heard about it.

The place where Zasan and the others were fighting now was a little space.

Politely, there are three entrances and exits besides the entrance that came in.

Although it was a closed room, I was vigilant because monsters might jump in and out of it.

The Sayl Rabbit who came to Zasan earlier was also a monster from the entrance and exit, so he was late to be alert.

"... I see... Well, let's go straight ahead."

Copy that.

With a short reply, Duncan immediately went on alert to what Zasan had shown him.

I guess I'll see how it goes first.

Zasan is not going to stop it either.

Because that's what Duncan does.

Duncan also plays a role in scolding this party.

Duncan just came back when we finished stripping the sail rabbit.

Zasan, who first noticed Duncan, noticed his strange appearance.

"What's wrong? Something wrong?

"Ah, ah... no, well... just come and get it."

Normally, Duncan would never say such a thing at this time.

"What's so unusual? Let's be clear."

One of the members said that to Duncan.

The information ahead concerns their lives and deaths. It was only natural that you should say so.

"Oh, no, I'm sorry. I don't think it's dangerous...... even if you tell me what I've seen here, I'm not sure you'll believe me."

Other members looked at Duncan's words.

"... it's not dangerous, is it?

"Oh, at least there weren't any monsters. Instead, we should all go and check it out."

"... okay. Let's move on."

It was Zasan's decision to move on.

Of course, don't forget to be vigilant as you go down the aisle.

Even though Duncan has confirmed it once, he doesn't know what's going to happen.

It appeared some way down the aisle.

Two buildings were built in a space of some magnitude.

Each building was marked with a sign.

One said "Amamiya Inn" and the other said "Shop Lira Amamiya".

Both are the names of Crown-owned hotels and shops.

The members who saw it on the boulder are bewildered. At the same time, I was convinced by Duncan's earlier attitude.

Sure enough, even if I had listened to this story in advance, I would have fallen for what I thought was some kind of psychological attack.

Strangely enough, there are no monsters in this space.

I checked the surroundings carefully, but except for the absence of monsters, there was nothing unusual about it, so I finally checked the building.

I decided to look into the inn first.

A note of caution was written on the entrance door.

Please hand over the Crown Card.

The words and arrows are written.

The arrow was preceded by something like a metal plate.

Being alert, Zasan stamps her Crown Card on the metal.

At the same time, there was a sound that the key to the door called chili had come off.

Turn the door knob to open the door, and the door opens honestly.

"Welcome to Amamiya Inn!

I heard a woman's voice and closed the door as it was.

"... what do you think?

Zasan asked about the people behind him.

The trusted friends also seemed to have no voice in the boulder.

I can't think of any kind of trap, but I don't know if I would do something like this with a boulder.

With that in mind, the door opened on its own.

"I'm sorry. I know it's confusing, but it's not a trap or anything. Trust me ~"

Her eyes became slightly tearful and that's what the woman said earlier.

In response to the open door, the members put their hands on the weapon, but the woman is appealing that she does not have the weapon type by raising her hands.

The women were light, so I thought there would be no big weapons for now, so I decided to enter the building while being guided by women.

The woman named Fair began explaining to Zasan, who remained vigilant.

"Did you know that the tower administrator has announced the installation of a safety area?

"... no way..."

"Yes, I don't think so. All the space around this building is a safety area."

That explains why monsters didn't show up when I was exploring the surroundings.

Of course, Zasan and the others knew that a safety area had been set up.

But I didn't think it would fit the dungeon.

"... three groups of adventurers have arrived in this safety area. But you guys are on alert, and I'm having trouble opening the door... This is the third time you've ever opened a door."

That's what Fail said, and he had a dry laugh.

The satans who saw it also had an unspeakable expression.

Because I don't know what the other parties are doing.

"In the meantime, this building is an inn. Will you be staying?

Zasan and the others looked at each other in the face.

While the suspicions are not completely clear, the benefits of being able to stay here are significant.

I immediately made a decision and nodded.

"Oh, let me stay."

Fail's face smiled at the words.

"I see! Thank you!

In Fair's words, another woman appeared from behind. I also have a happy face.

Speaking of which, there was a shop next door, but do you keep any medicines?

"Of course. I'm also buying."

I see. Thank you very much. "

"And then, I'd like to ask you all a few questions later... of course, it's a formal request from the Crown."

Request?

"Yes, I want you all to go back to town. And spread the word about this place. You can check with HQ to make sure this is a safe area."

I see, Zasan thought.

Indeed, as it stands, there will be very few people who will use this place for nothing but vigilance.

To prevent this from happening, we will use the actual Zasans as a source of rumours.

"Yeah, I'll take that."

"I see! Great. Thank you very much. For now, please take your time today."

That's what Fail said and went into the counter.

"Well, let's change it. Welcome to Amamiya Inn!!
