Struggling Hard As The Lord Of A Castle In A Different World

My assignment is over and we move on to the sixth tier.

So far so good anyway, but time has passed there since I broke in and I'm getting a little hungry.

With that in mind, Orion's belly rattled on the road to the next tier.

It's not me.

"You often find out in such a flash. Don't lie."

Laugh at Orion, who denied it at the speed of sound. I'm pretty sure you're just getting hungry, and you should take a little break around here.

"Nahal, do you want to go somewhere around here where you can rest?

"These six levels have large large rooms. Perhaps you can rest there."

Then we'll ask them to guide us there.

Hey, you, hold this.

"Hmm?"

Looking back, Freya was in charge of a leather bag that looked heavy.

Needless to say, the contents are gold coins I received when I completed the trial.

Since 1,000 gold coins were really paid out in the five earlier layers, I recovered them all, but they weigh less than half.

"Nice."

When I receive a leather bag from Freya, my arm makes a nasty noise.

I held it with the arm of the person who was hit by a hammer scorpion.

I couldn't help but bite down a voice that was about to leak and ate my teeth off.

"So, are you okay?

"I'm fine. It was just a little heavier than I expected."

"Sorry, I knew you'd have one."

"Then I'll take care of it"

When Nahal breaks in, he hits the bread and hands. Then her family, the bathing cats, appeared with a sound of pong.

When the bath cats received the leather bag, they lifted it with six pieces and moved forward with the chocolate chocolate and legs.

"You're surprisingly powerful. It helps with the ability to be useful."

"Oh, let's be?

"Oh, thank you"

Nahal scratches his own face from the lights or hiatus, making his proud hairy tail stand up properly.

"That was Lily's tail when the cat was happy."

"It's a dangerous sign."

Both assholes are wary of something back there.

After a while we walked into an open space that wasn't a test room.

It was just a place of nothing surrounded by stone walls and floors, but it would be just right for a break.

In the large room there are several figures of the ancestors, people who have already rested.

Would it be about two parties if you just looked at them? Nearly ten people were seen, and they were exhausted, sleeping, counting the gold coins they got, and moving on to the next hierarchy?

They probably caught up with the party that was attacking this pyramid before us.

"There's a lot of people here."

"You're really like a lounge."

With regard to those that are also deep in the dungeons, a camp will be set up that will serve as a relay point in some hierarchy, where those that rest or do business will appear.

I guess this place serves a similar function to that.

"In the meantime, shall we rest here too?"

"Right."

"Chloe's giving me lunch, so let's eat it."

"The water also brings what crushed the magic stone, so tell the lost man Atashi"

When I burned a pine light nearby and started eating lunch for everyone, a badly behaved guy just stuck a fork in my stock roll.

"Swap the blossom stock roll and lizard steak with my edamame"

"The exchange rate is not too sharp. Study the market a little more."

I'll give you a fish fry.

"Wait, exchange is fine, but don't put the food away."

"One bite. One bite."

"Saki, exchange the shrimp for the meat"

"You only have a tail left!

"Sip by sip."

Orion and Freya fill their lunches from mine, so Sakya and Nahar silently replenish them from their own lunches.

You're just giving Sakya and Nahar lunch boxes back to the Orions.

It just looks like a diagram of my sister feeding her delicious sister.

Raylan tries to eat fruit alone without me, but Orion takes it away from him.

"Apples are delicious."

Orion inflates her cheeks like a pre-hibernation squirrel.

In that backlash, Raylan takes Orion's favorite steak.

"Meat delicious, sir"

"If you take that away from me, you'll only have war!

"You're the one who set me up first, sir! The war you started, sir!

"Superior, Konyaro!

You can fight that much with one apple a lot, you guys.

I really feel like I'm watching a sisters fight.

If you keep it too loud, you should be careful because you can get mad at me from a tingly adventurer.

With that in mind, a pair of nice, scratchy parties at my feet came into the big room.

Is he an adventurer now that the five-tier trials are over? So I turned my gaze, and there was the run-down Alans.

"Is that it? That guy was supposed to have come in long before us. Why did you come later?

That's what I thought. Looking at it for a while, Alan's party had secured the place without noticing this one and handled the wounded.

Seems pretty worn out, and what's working decently is about a young man with glasses.

I did meet Alan at first, I wonder if he was a young man named Santos.

I approached Alan, sitting a little further away from the party, with one hand in my lunch box.

"Hey Thompson."

When I speak, Alan looks blatantly disgusted.

"It's Alan... Why are you here?

"That's five layers of trials over, so we're in the middle of a break here. You got in here a long time ago than I did, didn't you? I forgot yesterday or yesterday."

"When did you get in here?

"What do you mean, three or four hours ago?

Alan looks at my words even more.

"Still, did we get this far? You're too fast."

"Really?

"We were stopped first in the second tier in the first place and spent an entire day with regard to the fourth tier"

"What kind of trial was the fourth tier?

"Release the needle when you get close, it's a walking cactus"

Oh, you're the guy Freya didn't hesitate to blow up. Apparently, there's been the same trial as us.

"I didn't know what that riddle meant and I was going to be chased around by a cactus all night"

"How did you clear that?

"I broke up with the person receiving the needle in order and the person attacking me and knocked him down while receiving the needle"

"That's a trick."

"How did you clear that one?

"I blew it up with a walking bomb"

"You're so much more powerful!

Am I?... maybe.

"What's the fifth tier?

"Up to the fifth level, there was one victim."

"Is he the one with the two choices?

"No, the test put out to us is to keep stepping on the panel designated in the dark"

"Sounds easy just to ask?

"The five of us stand on four corners and a central panel, each of us, and we just keep waiting. They haven't been informed of the end time, and they're slowly becoming suspicious that other humans are really standing on the panel when they've been deprived of their vision. I'm forbidden to utter words, I just have to keep standing, believing that other humans are on the panel"

"That sounds pretty hard to hear."

Sure, you heard that silence, when left for a long time in a dark situation, makes humans go crazy right away.

"Not quite. I felt it for hours just a few minutes. Eventually one of my buddies couldn't stand it and moved his voice out of the rough panel. Then my people fell upside down. As a matter of fact, all but our standing floor panels have been missing since the trial began."

Alan shakes his head with a bitter look.

"The fellow who fell died after being eaten by the mukade who was downstairs"

So there's only four of us at this guy's party right now, including this guy?

Asking about the party with Chirali, Alan and Santos, plus a lady warrior with dreadhair in the man with the beard like a leader. Everyone was injured and blood seeped through the bandages wrapped around them.

"How was your place?

I'll tell him what the trial is about, and I'll tell him I forced the two of them to pull up.

Alan, like earlier, had a bitter look on his face.

"Does common sense make sense to you?

"If I let go of my hand, the girl's gonna get eaten by a muckadder, right? I'll be traumatized for the rest of my life."

"Sure. When I get there, I'm impressed in a way through the fright. You're the only one with a mole."

"You finally admitted to me."

"Your silliness."

I still hate him.

"I didn't understand why a beautiful woman would follow a guy like you, but somehow I did"

"Your face."

"One stomach hurts. Come back and come out again."

You say too much.

"Gu......"

Was my interaction strong, Alan groaned holding onto his arm wound?

"Shouldn't we turn back now? My people are on the lookout, and the victims are here."

"Don't be silly. We're about to!

Alan puts up a cloth bag in his hand. Probably his share. About 300 gold coins sounded jarrah.

"I've come this far. The next tier must pay 10,000 gold coins. I'll never go home unless you at least get it."

"Me, I'm with a guy who knows this dungeon, but basically, if we don't have all five of them, he's gonna be tough to clear."

"Conversely, if there is less than one person, the share will be more"

Akan, it's the thought of the guy who's packing it.

"You may be good, but listen to the rest of us. You hate Santos."

"I'll definitely have him come for a few matches"

"You..."

At the same time as I was about to tell you, Santos came here to take care of Alan.

Santos looks at my face and says, "Ah."

"Oh, uh..."

"I don't know if you said your name. They call me a hero."

"You're such a fucking idiot."

"Ha ha, I see you again"

Santos wraps a bandage around Alan with a smile that seems fortunate when he says so.

"Santos is in trouble, too. You don't have to deal with a guy like this. This guy is more scumbag than you think."

"Why talk on the assumption that you already think it's scum. Don't say anything extra."

"You're both close, right?"

"Ha, Santos is a tough joke. Next time I say that, I'll hit you with a goo."

Denying it with a smile, Santos laughs bitterly.

"Shh, excuse me"

"Santos, if you're partying with this guy, I don't care how many lives you have. It's not too late now. You better turn back."

"Hey, I'm telling you not to say anything extra"

"Right. It's getting harder and harder to try, and I may not be able to help you anymore."

When Santos makes a weak statement, Alan rushes to follow.

"That's not true. Be confident. You are sufficiently helpful. There were many trials I couldn't have completed without you."

"In the meantime, I'll just try one more tier. If that's not possible, I'll talk to the leader, Mr. Blast."

Alan stroked his chest down relieved when Santos said so.

"Mm-hmm, but if I'm missing one, I think I should turn around."

"Right, but I haven't gotten paid yet... You may find it hard to say this, but we only have a mother, so I want to make it a little easier for you."

"That's right, Mr. Santos. If you work hard, my mother, Mr. Yamba, will be delighted."

Alan nods yeah yeah.

"I hope so."

Alan slaps Santos on the shoulder with a laugh, but I sounded a little familiar with the name Yamba.

"Is that it? Surely the vigilante woman Chloe and the others met was not named Yamba?

"Do you know my mother?

"I heard our people talked to a woman with that name. Isn't Santos' mother close to Muhan?

"Yeah. I have a side story, but I'm supposed to be playing an auxiliary role."

"Oh... really?"

Muhan's proximity means he is likely placed under the control of Apopis for a long time.

I was a little concerned that his mother would not change into a monster (Unuto).

"Fine, you go that way. Outsiders, I suppose."

"Yes, it is."

That's what I said. I kicked Chloe's lunch box.

Then the sound rang from Alan's belly.

Apparently, they're out of food.

"Musha Musha Musha"

…………

"Gatsu Gatsu Mushamsha"

…………

"Musha."

"You did it on purpose!

"On purpose."

"You nasty bastard."

"Not as good as you"

A frustrated Alan throws a stone at me and makes his voice absurd.

I don't care. I drink out the water from the water bottle in front of him.

"Delicious."

…………

Drinking the water, Alan was looking at this one more with seemingly wanting eyes than he had earlier.

Santos also swallowed saliva. Apparently, the water is running out.

I can still stand hunger, but I can't stand thirst.

"What, you're out of water?

"Shut up."

"Before I went into the dungeon, I had the magic stone of water, so I'm fine. Lerorello, you said Leron"

"I didn't say that creepy"

Alan throws a stone like a bean grain in his hand. Apparently, the magic's gone and I'm just back in stone.

"I wouldn't have given it to you if you were a pretty girl. It's just a ghost."

"You can take whatever you want with your strength, okay?

Alan makes a chattering noise and tries to pull out his sword.

"Stop it, you flirtatious bastard"

"Hey, let's go! Get ready!"

As they speak, Alan's bearded man, like a party leader, speaks up.

"Are you going now?

"He (Blast) is the one who's jumping to the most treasure. Even if the party is half-baked, we might move on."

"You're the captain of the mudship."

"Shut up."

Hum and snort, Alan and Santos stood up.

"Hey, wait."

"Shut up. You haven't disappeared from my sight sooner -"

I put water in the water bottle and threw it at Alan and Santos.

The two receive a water bottle and look at this one with surprised eyes

"... how much? If you give me the edge of the adventurer, you know how much water value jumps in places like this, right?

"Unlike you, I'm not a jerk."

He then threw two apples into the cloth bag for me.

"Oh, thank you"

Santos lowered his head honestly, so I said, "That's okay. Never mind," he returned.

But Alan slaps his hatred to the end.

"It's no use trying to sell thanks to me."

"Then give it back."

I'll give you my hand, but Alan didn't give it back.

"I'll just have it. It's hard if I can't move when I have to."

Alan walks out of the room scratching the apple round.

I got my thumbs up with my back turned at the end, so, well, I wouldn't fall hungry.
