Ahead of the door, it was quite a small room compared to the one I had been in before.

Horizontal room less than 10 tatami.

Behind it you can see a staircase leading down, one crate and a suspicious magic formation beside it.

"Crate, you had it"

"Right. I've spent a long time exploring it, so thank God it looks rewarding."

"Come here. If it's Mimic or something, it sucks."

"Exactly. That's... isn't it okay?

There is no response to [Sovereign], but there is of course a possibility that the disguise is only a mimic of life, which cannot be discerned by [Sovereign].

But you're too bad for Mimic in this situation, aren't you?

"In the meantime, let's find out"

"Right."

Me and Natsuki will look into it, but there's still no sign of a trap.

It doesn't seem to be locked either, with a little anticipation in my chest, when I open it with caution...

"Is this all...?

Tyrant Pickaw's mighty, overflowing gold and silver treasures were not to be expected, but only one small pendant was rolling inside a likely treasure chest.

A pendant top made of metal chain with about a thumbnail. Light blue, slightly closer to water coloured gemstones are secured to the metal pedestal.

"I'm happy with the treasure, but it's kind of shoddy. Toya for now, [Appraisal] Regards."

"Er... he said it was a pendant from Colandum"

"Colandom?"

"That's a kind of sapphire. Sapphires, to be exact, are a kind of random thing."

"Ruby is a kind of random thing."

"Oh, speaking of which, I've heard of you."

Sure, the color changes depending on the type of impurity?

"So, is it expensive?

"I don't know the price."

"Maybe that's pretty expensive. But with this pendant, I can feel the magic..."

"It works something, doesn't it? I don't know."

Toya's [appraisal] doesn't seem to know that much.

After all, the [appraisal] skills of this world are cynical.

"You know, when you can wear it, you're cursed?

"That's a possibility, too. But I think you have a better chance of having a positive effect."

"Naturally, it's worth more than just accessories, right? If you're an adventurer at the right level, it's more than worthy of the labor of the past month."

If this dungeon is at the right level, will it be enough for enemies less than goblins and less than oaks to defeat it?

With about five adventurers, if you think of it as a month or more labor, you can make a lot of 100 gold coins?

No, can't we make that much money if we don't do it well?

"What if it's our level?

"... maybe a little cheap?

To my question, Yuki puts his neck up like a troublemaker and says so.

"That depends on the effect of this pendant, too. Because if it's a curse, it's out of the question, and if it works, we could make a lot of money."

"Sure, you can get them to look it up in the Adventurer Guild, right?

"For once. I don't know if Rafan can handle it."

Pre-building seems to be accepting appraisals for any adventurer's guild, but the real problem is that there are few opportunities for appraisals at adventurer's guilds in towns like Lafan.

In such a case, even if you can take it on, they'll need a lot of time before the appraisal results come out.

"By the way, what's the appraisal fee? You don't think it's the same as the buyout price, do you?

"It's so boltacky - there's nothing bothersome about it."

Once appraised, it's not profitable to sell it off, or it's too harsh for adventurers.

Well, then, asking for an appraisal fee estimate would be an indication as to whether that item is worth appraising, but I don't see how it's profitable.

"I don't remember the exact appraisal fee, but it must have been a flat rate, right? Conversely, there could be a deficit."

"That's for sure. It's tough..."

"Appraisers do their job."

Even if it is cheaper, will it cost more than appraisal?

"Well, let's leave the pendant for now. Next up is that magic team."

Magic formation across the stairs opposite the crate.

about 2 meters in diameter painted on the floor. That, when looked closely, emitted a slight light.

Its effect is unknown, but it also feels somewhat close to the magic of the space-time system.

"If you honestly think about it, can you return when you get on top? I think..."

"I don't think there's a trap even though I can clearly see it so far..."

If it's a metastasis trap or a trap that's going to be abnormal, don't hide the magic formation, if it's normal.

"For once, there seems to be an example of this in the dungeon, so maybe it's okay"

"Sometimes they seem to fly deeper."

"You're not okay!

Is it possible that there is no malice, that there is a metastasis as a shortcut?

I want to go home. It's a little troublesome from us.

"Trying to get down those stairs... hey"

"Nothing. Think about what happened when you went down from one layer to two."

To Toya's words, Hulka laughs bitterly as if she was in trouble.

"Even if you want to move on, once, you want to go home"

"I agree. I need a little vacation."

There is still plenty of room for food, but there is very little left to cook, so it will take a lot of cooking time in the future.

That would plainly compress exploration time and rest time...

"If we're gonna make it, we should go back and see what's going on in that aisle."

"You're a little far away from the neck. This is an acceptable risk for this magic formation...... majority vote. Someone who'd be nice to go back there once."

You thought you couldn't decide if you were worried, Hulka makes a spa majority decision.

And I look around everyone's face, but I don't raise anyone's hand.

"Next, there's no need to pass a verdict on the magic team."

Either go back and check, or join the magic team knowing the risks, than you don't have the option to move on.

If you take into account that the road is not always open when you return, there is no choice but to choose the magic formation while passive?

"Now let's all hold hands and go in at the same time. In case you get flown to a different place, it's called" The Thing. "

"Right. I don't think it's that bad."

It can be judged that there will be no such thing as difficulty in the game as the strength of the enemy, but there are a lot of dungeons in this world that I don't know about.

"Well, let's go!

When we joined hands and circled around the magic formation, we stepped inside the magic formation at the same time as Yuki's voice.

...... hmm? Nothing happens.

"... underdeveloped?

As if waiting for that word of Hulka, all of a sudden, the magic formations emit a strong light.

Instantly my vision stains white.

Me closing my eyes to too much eyelids.

And a few seconds later.

It was the green forest and the rays of the sun that popped into my sight when I opened my eyes again.

"This is... the entrance to the abandoned pit!

Looking around, a familiar view.

A while back, we met up with skeletons and zombies in the square.

We stood where Skeleton Knight was in formation.

Looking back, there's the entrance to the abandoned pit.

- No, should I now call it the entrance to the dungeon?

"Yay!

"Phew..."

Yuki, who speaks with joy, and Hulka, who exhales as relieved.

"Ooh!! Long time no see sun! New air! Now this heat is lovely too!

Toya looks up into the sky and breathes heavily with her hands wide open.

Summer is on the calendar now.

Temperature enough to sweat just standing.

If it's a battle, you'll be sweating like a waterfall.

Still, the openness to getting out of the dungeon safely seems pretty great.

We breathe joyful voices and relieved sighs into our mouths.

There was nothing in the dungeon that made each of them shy away from each other or leak dissatisfaction, but they were still under stress.

It's been a long time since all of us have had a heartfelt smile.

"Ha... I'm relieved, but it looks like the magic team was a one-way street"

I bite the joy for a while, and a little calm Hulka finds out where we were first standing and says a little sorry.

There is no trace of it in the place where it has been transferred, and nothing happens when you stand in that place.

I mean, you need to walk the dungeon over a few days again to get to that place again... that's a pain in the ass.

"If the example path is not resurrected, it means I can't go in anymore..."

"Isn't that okay? Anyway, this is a dungeon."

"Yeah. Looks like the dungeon trap is gonna come back to life, and it's not a dungeon if you can't get it in"

You don't really understand, do you, Dungeon?

Some parts don't match the gaming dungeons, and strange parts still exist.

"You need more knowledge. If you dive in earnest."

"Hey. And more food, let's get more ready. Different peace of mind."

"Yes. Continue to get rid of that area, and then good?

In this situation, trapped for over a month, he said, 'I want to explore it fast!' There was just no one to say.

We nodded in line with Natsuki's suggestion and walked out early to our first home in a long time.
