"Seriously, last night's earthquake was awesome."

"Oh, seriously?"

I'm suddenly in a hurry.

A small town in the territory of the Race Kingdom.

At the inn in the town, Mohikans, who are from the lowest level of Naraka, have a conversation about the earthquake that shook last night while sipping breakfast in the cafeteria.

Late at night--almost at dawn, when I was sleeping in bed, an earthquake struck.

The wobble subsided quickly and the building did not collapse.

However, since earthquakes rarely occurred, most of the residents of the town also woke up and became temporarily noisy.

Since there was not much damage, the noisy townspeople quickly subsided... "

In the morning, everyone rubbed their sleepy eyes and exchanged stories about the earthquake that occurred at night.

Not only Mohikan and the others, but also the employees of the inn and the merchants who looked like pedestrians, were the most talked about topics in the town.

That said, I can't keep chatting all the time.

Compared to the meal on the bottom floor of Naraka, Mohikan and the others left the inn with an overwhelmingly unpleasant breakfast in their stomachs.

The Adventurer's Guild was on its way.

Well then, let's do the goblin hunting today, shall we?

"Sure, Leader."

With our strength, it's easy around here.

While they were adventuring, Mohikan had the task of obtaining information that could only be accessed by their muscles and reporting it to the bottom level of the [Naraka].

Of course, I ordered quests as an adventurer, but I couldn't take on their powerful monsters.

"With high-level people, that's the bottom level of the [Naraka], but..."

There was too much difference in level, so even if I played a mock battle, I would be defeated immediately.

Because the Mohikans understood their strengths, they did not force themselves, but believed in receiving a high-security quest that matched their height.

Of course, I don't say that I have any desire to fight a bit stronger enemies, but this is also to get information that only adventurers can obtain, and in turn, for the [Light] that they respect.

Therefore, I chose the resident quest "Goblin Extermination", which was still at their height today.

With permission at the reception desk, Mohikan and the others, who had already picked up their gear, headed for the forest near the town.

― ― Incidentally, the Goblin has high fertility, and if it is left too much, there is a risk of too many stampedes.

In order to prevent that from happening, the Adventurer's Guild always had "Defeat the Goblin" as a resident quest.

The Mohikans go into the woods, searching for the goblins and hunting them.

Of course, I didn't go deep into the forest where there were monsters with high levels.

You just wander around in the shallows.

Even the low-level Race Adventurer can train his gear, work together, and safely hunt Goblins with experience.

However, there were exceptions to everything.

"... what is this? Is it some kind of entrance or exit?"

When the Mohikans are taking out the goblins in the shallow part of the forest, they discover a part of the place where the soil unnaturally collapsed.

It was originally a gentle slope, and it was one of the ascending roads to the back of the forest, but this time it was for a different purpose, and it just happened to be passing.

The problem is that the soil on the slope has collapsed and there is a hole in it.

Moreover, I could see from a distance that there was a staircase leading to the basement at the end of the hole.

When Mohikan and the others understood the situation, they exchanged the conversation with a little excitement.

Is that a dungeon?

"Probably because of yesterday's earthquake, the soil collapsed." Moreover, we are the first discoverers because we haven't been trampled underfoot yet. "

So you've found a dungeon that no one has ever set foot in?

Shit, I'm getting a little tense!

The undiscovered dungeon is very delicious for adventurers.

Undiscovered is a highly probable place where no one has vandalized it yet, and where you can get valuable treasures.

Childhood, "An adventurer challenges an undiscovered dungeon to defeat high-level monsters, dive through traps, and help each other gain gold and silver treasure. With that gold and silver treasure, all my companions lived happily ever after."

There were very few adventurers who could get such good luck.

In addition, as it appears in the previous story, there are many high level monsters and extreme traps in the undiscovered dungeons, and the danger level is also very high.

That's why there are not many stable-minded adventurers who report to the Adventurer's Guild and get paid for the report.

Mostly, I didn't report it like a storyteller, and it was full of adventurers who tried at least once.

But the Mohikans were not interested in treasure.

Because if you go to the bottom level of Naraka, things like poor treasures and things that don't reach underfoot are all over the place.

For example, the great sword that Nazna bears is a piece that doesn't matter if it appears in mythology.

However, Mohikan and the others were also adventurers.

It must be hard to get aroused in front of the [Undiscovered Dungeon].

“What will you do with the leader? Do you want to report to the Adventurer's Guild? Before that, would you like to go there once?"

Wouldn't you like to be the first to dive?

I see! I want to dive into it!

"... you guys, calm down. Can you hear me before I report to the Adventurer's Guild?"

Can you hear me?

Four people, other than the Mohican leader, tilted their heads at his words.

Leaders turn their ears to the dungeon entrance and tell them.

"From the state of the collapse of the slope, we are definitely the first discoverers." Moreover, far away, the dungeon entrance staircase is covered in dust. Perhaps the ruins of the old civilization were buried in the soil and exposed by the earthquake last night. Nevertheless, I can still hear something going up the stairs from the basement of the dungeon..... "

…………

As they said, Mohikan and the others silenced and listened to the leader.

To clarify -- "Tricks, tricks, tricks" and certainly slowly, but I heard someone walking.

It's not just the sound of walking.

There are other sounds of metal rubbing against each other, and thanks to that, you can hear them in the distance.

Someone in Mohikan throats.

"...... Everyone, keep your distance quiet and hide behind the trees." In some cases, I'll go back. "

…………

Everyone silently follows the leader's instructions, takes a distance from the entrance, solidifies and hides in the shadows of the trees.

[Return] is something like a dagger, and if they are in a dangerous situation, it refers to retreating to the bottom level of [Naraka] with the [Transfer] card entrusted to them by the light.

(Considering the accumulation of dust on the stairs, it's not at the level of a few days or something. Hundreds of years if you're not good at it. Even if you're locked up for such a long time, it's safe to think that you can still move as a high-level monster......)

The leader makes a calm decision.

The easiest way to do this is to transfer to the bottom level of Naraka with your card right now, or you can just run away with your side.

However, if left unconfirmed, the nearby town could be destroyed.

Therefore, we must confirm the presence of people coming up the stairs.

What is the threat?

If you can defeat it with the Adventurer's Guild on Earth, I'll leave it to you.

If it doesn't work, we need to report it and deal with it confidentially.

Therefore, it was necessary to confirm its existence once and for all.

It's like a long gossip on the ground.

The monster appears.

My face is mummified and my hair is falling out with spots.

The armor, the round shield on my left arm, and the sword hanging from my waist were all dull black, and I could see at a glance that I was [cursed].

The leader unexpectedly seems to be tonguing.

(It's almost the worst monster...)

From the sound of walking up the stairs, I understood that it was bipedal.

Still good for golems and monsters with empty armor.

Because if you don't get close and keep your distance, you won't get attacked aggressively.

Grants time to report to the Adventurer's Guild and formulate countermeasures.

However, even though the opponent is mummified, it is intelligent, talking and moving.

It is an undead monster with a strong desire to actively attack people and take their lives.

If we leave them alone, we will soon attack a nearby race.

Worst of all...

(Leader, [Magic Swordsman of the Underworld on Level 1500])

One of the Mohikans used the "Appraisal" card as a role.

Identify the opponent's level and name.

It was such a high level monster that it could not exist on the ground.

The nearby town was destroyed by one of these monsters.

The worst still continues.

The [Magic Swordsman of the Outcast Underworld] looked at the Mohikans who were hiding at a distance and looked down at them.

"Finally, the seal has been lifted, and I can return to the ground, and there is even more prey for the dead." In truth, the soft flesh of a child or a woman would have been nice. Well, I don't mean to be extravagant at this time. "



The opponent is level 1500.

I was hiding at a distance, but they noticed me.

Moreover, it was an evil monster that liked the race from its mouth.

The Mohikans are getting their biggest pinch on the ground.
