Haven’t given up!

So sorry for the hiatus. I haven’t forgotten about this. I just started my second year in pharmacy school and keeping up and getting used to tests every week is taking a bit of getting used to. Also I work to deal with and am trying to keep a 4.0. Probably next week around wednesday-thursday should be another chapter.

More bad news….

So the update date will be moved to 8/16/15. I know I keep pushing it back but this week has been so busy with work and I have literally been working full shifts for the last 8 days and if that wasn’t enough because I’m a new intern I have all sorts of online assessments and videos I need to watch. Some pros would be that I’m getting paid well and the cons would be I’m tired as hell. The only thing I have literally done this last week is work, do work assessments from home, and watch detective conan (i’m addicted right now)

Chapter 5 – People are like this no matter where you look in the world!

Chapter 5 – People are like this no matter where you look in the world!

Side: Herge Lau Rochelle

I emulate to be a leader on this continent. As the third princess of the country of Rochelle, 世に受けました (I received this world? I don’t get this phrase). In other words it means that I have the heavy responsibility of leading the people.

Ever since I came to comprehend the world, I believed that Rochelle itself will bring peace to this continent and that it was the only righteous country that could do so. Only under the rule of Rochelle would the people be able to find peace of mind.

And so, I never thought of questioning that. Whenever I would reveal myself to the citizens near the castle, everyone would show me their smiling faces cheering “Princess Herge Banzai (hurray)”. That’s why I thought that for those people, wasn’t there anything I could do.

Royalty couldn’t appear on the front lines, and as a princess it wasn’t even remotely feasible. I did try running it by mother and father but they just said “If you were ever hurt the people would become sad”.

Like that, the days passed as I tried to find something I could do. Both of my elder sisters said that didn’t I know that it was impossible “Herge’s heart is all that’s needed to save the people” and “what are you saying, there’s no way you could do anything there”.

One day, Oriel who was looking over me said that “If I may be able to give you some advice. Your majesty, it’s just as you say. If you can’t stand on the front lines then how about offering healing around that area?”

My eyes froze from hearing Oriel’s words.

[That’s…right. My view was too narrow. Just standing on the front lines isn’t the only thing that can help the country nor its people. Thank You Oriel. Then you should look for someone who can teach me healing magic. Normally I would go looking and bow my head but as the princess if I did such a thing there would be unrest among the people.]

[As Herge-sama wishes.]

Then as I was learning healing magic, a miracle occurred. As I was trying to heal some wounded patients, suddenly I was enveloped in a warm light….one of the 3 goddesses of this world, Lilith-sama, descended in front of me.

[Herge Lau Rochelle. I have seen what you have done so far. For you country and its people you have continued to work tirelessly.]

I started kneeling at that place.

[You’re too kind but there are still many whose lives are still falling. Lilith-sama’s words to me, I am thankful for those from the bottom of my heart but please grant us your blessing not for me but for those who are still struggling to live their lives.]

Hearing my rude words, Lilith-sama’s smile still didn’t leave her face.

[Rest assured I have received those words. If it’s you, even after receiving my blessing you won’t lose your way, You want to save people so they won’t lose their loved ones right. Then, received my blessing.]

The light enveloped me and I was awarded “Saint of Healing” and “Excellent talent in Magic”.

Hearing this story, Yuki-san started looking at me shadily. Yuki started saying [It’s boring that its so template-esque….anyway this pattern basically signaled a failure in the future right (flag set). No, currently the princess has already tasted failure.]. I’m embarrassed to say but it’s just like he says.

And so after I received the blessing in front of the people they started shouting “Seijo-sama!!(=saint-sama).” And so I worked even harder than before for the people and the country.

But that didn’t continue for long. I had forgotten that both countries had started fighting each other.

I don’t know the details but I came to set foot in a village from the enemy country.

[This village is that was oppressed by this country’s king and the people of this village that were suffering requested out help. We will go first and secure the village. Princess…no, once Seijo-sama’s safety is established please follow us. Please heal the villagers.]

As I recalled the goddess’ words, without thinking of anything but helping people proceeded to the village but there was only a trampled and burned down village there. There wasn’t even one person alive.

[Some…Someone! Please Reply! Someone!]

As I was about to jump in, I was stopped by Oriel.

[Herge-sama, please calm down. Where is the forward unit!?]

Oriel instructed the forces to spread out and look at the situation, After a while the commanding officer came out and laid out a carpet in front of me and said, [Ha, Seijo-sama, as you ordered. We finished annihilating the villagers who resisted to the very end. As planned, we can use this place as a stopover point. As one would expect of someone with the king’s blood. I am amazed at your wisdom.]

With a bowed head and a happy look he said those words to me….

[Eh, eh…? Wha…What do you mean. Ori…Oriel…]

This merciless scene in front of me was on my orders? I don’t understand.

Oriel with a bitter face escorted me to the tent and explained it to me.

[I’m sorry Herge-sama. In order to enter the foreign country’s village rightfully we needed to establish it as our territory.]

It took a while for Oriel’s words to reach my body.

[I….If only I hadn’t come here. This village…the people…]

Near my foot, a doll came into my view. It was dyed red.

[Aaaaa…aaaaaaaaa.aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!]

[Please calm down, Herge-sama! Herge-sama!]

And so a month after that, using that village as a base we attacked a city. We succeeded in having them surrender.

What “Excellent Seijo”…this is just me spilling blood isn’t it.

Side: Mob

[No, help me! Stop it!]

Under me there was a girl, with knife cuts all over her body who was being raped.

Of course the one who was doing it was me. It wasn’t interesting at all.

My daughter was around this age too…Aaaa, my thoughts became choppy.

[Agu!?]

Like that I swung the knife down.

It was just reckless stabbing.

[Aa, fat…mother….]

Little by little, her eyes opened and she stopped moving.

[Yo, you seem to have enjoyed yourselves there.]

Next to me, Raiya was standing covered in blood. At his feet there was a woman like mine laying there.

[How’d it go over there, Curse]

[Igyaaaaa! Stoooop!!]

Curse who was attacking a girl without changing his expression fired a fireball at the girl’s face.

[Gaaaaaagyaaaa!!]

Already, It didn’t sound like a human moreover a girl’s voice.

And so, after a few seconds the sound disappeared, there only layed a burned block of flesh.

[Really, I can’t feel anything.]

Curse saying that, sat down on a nearby chair.

Us 3 attacked this city that was a part of the country of Rochelle. After that we enjoyed ourselves. Well we didn’t enjoy ourselves at all though.

[Hero of the destroyed city, huh, right now its a skill we don’t even want.]

The three of them said while sitting on chairs and having an appropriate meal.

Raiya replied to my words.

[It doesn’t matter we do or don’t. We will attack the seijo and keep attacking her and keeping destroying her pieces, we will exposes everything.]

Words like killing her, those sweet words won’t come out anymore Curse.

Why were we doing these crazy things?

It was simple.

We were burned so we are going to burn them. A child’s reasoning? I know, but my wife or daughter’s regret, our unbearable feelings… its already all messed up.

Normally, we were just adventurers. We had good friends, blessed with a wife and daughter. One day when monsters came into the village we fell in a desperate situation.

When we realized we came to be known as the heroes of that city. There was where I met my wife and my daughter was born. Compared to any treasure or any amount of money they were irreplaceable to me.

My partner raiya replied that [My bad but I too had a promised person with a long relationship]. Its definitely that village girl. There was an age difference but with Raiya as a partner there wasn’t anything to be worried about.

[And finding a partner for you was really hard, wasn’t it.] I called out to a magician who was related often with this city. Why was finding a partner hard? It’s simple. It was because I was the son of the lord of the village and people always thought what is he thinking becoming an adventurer.

[Then, Mob-san’s daughter is fine right] was the reply that was returned to me which caused me to lose control. [Do it after you defeat me!!] was my reply in the middle of the tavern….those days were fun.

One day, we got word that Rochelle was advancing towards the village, Raiya’s lover was living in. It was being led by the Seijo-sama so we thought that it was relief efforts. Even in the empire, her efforts had entered our ears. But Raiya didn’t calm down from that. From that we accepted a quest which told us to go to the village and observe the Rochelle army.

And that was the start of the breaking. The village was reduced to ashes and there was nothing but bodies. Holding her in his arms, I didn’t have any words for Raiya.

[I’m alright Mob, Curse.]

Saying that while crying had no persuasive power.

We reported this to the lord but we couldn’t just sit back.

The seijo’s efforts were heard everywhere so no one belived the information we reported, which turned everyone into our enemies.

After a month, using the village as the base, Rochelle attacked this city. The opponent’s actions were unexpected so the resistance wasn’t enough. And so the city was left with barely any survivors. Finally the big shots realized that it was Rochelle using the seijo as a sheild and a flag to attack us. But for me, I couldn’t care less. After realizing Rochelle attacking us, we started retaliating.

For us it was already too slow. Raiya and Curse’s eyes were already clouded.

There was no reason to retreat. Our treasure won’t come back anymore.

That’s why we didn’t have any morals or ethics. We weren’t any different than bandits. No, bandits still leave behind things that can be used alive. so they were better than us who got rid of everything.

[Aaaa, where are you Seijo-sama?]

And so we passed by a flag that we thought we had seen before.

Side: Herge Lau Rochelle

After attacking that village the strife became more grim. The opponent’s cites still kept falling but the opponent also started attacking. This side and that side too, a number of cities and villages had burned down.

Washing blood with blood…after all it was my fault for starting this right?
Oriel says that’s wrong but I can’t remove that scene from that village from my eyes.

[…Smoke]

This is supposed to be withing our own country but that flag is…has the enemy already reached us.

[Sorry driver, but this place is dangerous. Hurry up and drive past…]

Before Oriel could complete her thought, suddenly the carriage rolled on it side.

[uguuu…]

My whole body hurts…When I look up, with a pained face, Oriel was protecting me by holding me close.

[Herge-sama…Are you alright?…I’m sorry]

Oriel’s leg was facing a weird position.

[Oriel!!!I will heal you right…]

But I wasn’t able to heal her, when I realized my situation, I was on the ground.

[Eh…goboo…]

My voice that came out was really strange.

[Herge-sama]
[Oi, Oi, did she say Herge]
[Ah]
[This is the Seijo?]

That’s how we fell to become slaves…no, it was a natural conclusion.

Side: Oriel

I couldn’t protect Herge-sama.
Currently we were currently the slaves of 3 men who seemed to be mercenaries and we passed our days being tormented…

[It hurrtss!]

Herge-sama’s voice echoed. I have to protect her.

[Sto…]

Dragging my blood covered body to Herge-sama. When I was caught, my leg was broken. These mercernaries also broke my other leg and my right arm.

[Igiii…!]

Herge-sama’s voice echoed. Somehow, if only I could get there.

[Ah? Oi, Raiya]
[Ah]

The man named Raiya grabbed my broken leg and started dragging me…

[Agaa…!!]

My eyes became blurry from the pain.
Trying to bear the pain, the man named Raiya seemed to sense something.

[This feeling, A dungeon huh…I just came up with a great idea]

His empty eyes suddenly faced me.

[Oi, Mob, there’s a dungeon nearby]
[So, what do you wanna do. Oi, you’re covered with blood aren’t you Seijo-sama. So dirty!]

Making fist, he puched Herge in the face.

[…..]

She’s already in a state where she can’t even raise her voice.
Raiya seeing that, started telling his plans.

[She will realize a woman’s happiness if she becomes a goblin’s wife right?]

[Aaaaahhh!!]

In front of my eyes, I saw Herge-sama dyed in red. Bringing her to this state and still trying to steal the little dignity she still has…!!

[Shut up, caterpillar (could be subbed for worm)]

As soon as I heard that, my head recieved a blow. I sank into darkness. (faints)

Side: Kasuya – The protagonist?

N?

I started having doubts after seeing my opponents actions.
Not using slaves as sheilds, Like that they arrived in front of G Comapany’s 1st squad and threw them in front of them.

[Here, we have some females here, hurry up and rape them.]

I recieved that type of voice from the monitor.
Ah, that’s how it is. I understand after thinking about it for a bit. The master can see their slaves’ statuses and so these 3 men know that their slaves were not commoners.

And still, they didn’t give them to the empire nor return them back to Rochelle, so they must have some personal grudge…

Yup, its a drama alright…its bloodstained though.

But sorry, I don’t care for the tragedy or the dramatic ending.

This seems like some story in a movie or something but I have my own reasons and goals.

[Conduct Operations as planned. Do it!]

That’s how I gave my orders.

At the end of the day, if I had to say something it would be “there are people like this no matter where you look in the world” right?

Chapter 8 – Let’s listen to some information!

Chapter 8 – Let’s listen to some information!

Side: Herge Lau Rochelle

The door closed in front of my eyes. I heard the footsteps go farther away.
[A dungeon master? That can’t be]
I murmered by myself.
He introduced himself as “Dungeon Adminstrator”.
But, with the current situations, he…Yuki-san wouldn’t tell us a lie.
I was sheltered? insde a dungeon, and there I encountered supposed vile creatures who were especially hated by women, goblins.
Those goblins took us here without hurting us.

[Oriel, do you believe Yuki-san when he said that he was a dungeon master?]
[With the current situation, I don’t think he would lie but I also think he didn’t tell use the truth.]
[I also agree with that…]
[Yes, he, Yuki wasn’t it, I still can’t make a judgement on our circumstances. Even though I said that, Yuki did treat us and therefore kept true his word]

Oriel frowned as she recalled what she had said before.

[Orield, as I thought, you…]
[Yes, I’m very sorry. Not as far as killing but I thought we should take take control of the situation.]

I can’t say that I don’t understand her feelings. We don’t know what the opponent’s expectations were as he put us under his protection. But, Yuki-san at the moment is keeping his word.
We, who were suffering after being turned into slaves, were freed by him after all.

[I don’t know what will happen from now on but as long as there is no harm that could come upon us, we will not interact with Yuki-san with hostility of violence.
[Yes, I accept. But, Assigned Guardian…the act itself seems to already have been sealed. After I was healed, I tried to hit him but I couldn’t.]
[You…]

Oriel’s dedication is something I’m thankful for but this time it went too far. Right now he’s done nothing wrong. In fact, he not only treated us but also freed us from the slavery collars. Normally you would thank someone by bowing your head even if they were a dungeon master.

[Tommorow, it seems we will have a chance to speak more. We have to properly apologize and give thanks Oriel.]
[…I am unable to promise that. For me, Herge-sama’s safety takes priority.]
[Oriel!]

I lectured Oriel until it was time for a meal.

Side: Kasuya Torino Alias: Yuki For the time being the protagonist (lol)

Well first lets proceed with the women’s story. The guys also had various things happen but, well they were lacking in ability so I left them out. The next time I come up with something I will talk with them.

After all, that day I told them that I would talk with the tommorow and went back to my room.
Right now its 8:00 a.m.: Like always I woke up to my cell phone alarm.
The first day I doubted that I had actually come to another world but human adapt fast. Right away, I opened the map and made sure that nothing was strange. Well, even if there was something wrong with the dungeon or there was an invasion the alarm would sound. But after all, I still worry about things.

635 DP

Oh, It increased more than I thought. The three guys I captured yesterday in the dungeon didn’t have the guardianship apply to them so every hour their MP was absorbed and changed to DP. The women too weren’t put under the guardianship immmediately so they too gave the dungeon about 1-2 hrs worth of MP.
If there’s a light battle or a battle without any humans, then I’m not to be alerted when I’m sleeping as long its judged that it can be handled properly.
Well, disregarding that, if I think about it, every hour 1% of the MP of the prisoners is absorbed.
Having prisoners with MP in the thousands is indeed delicious.
Let me think about using this path later…For now. lets eat breakfast quickly and get information from the two girls.

After eating my fill, I went to their room with a notepad and a ballpen since ofcourse a PC would only cause confusion.
I could’ve bought a map with the “Soko Hore Wan Wan” but it was a whopping 10,000 DP.
Thinking about various things, I arrived where the girls were.

[Good morning. How are you feeling today?]
[Thank you for asking. We feel fine.]
[Is that so, Miss Oriel was it, are you also alright?]
[Ah, there’s no problem…Yesterday, I was impolite. Because of the circumstances I was overly antagonistic.]

Oriel apologized a little awkwardly.

[No, Please don’t mind. So, about our discussion…is it fine for you to give some information?]
[Yes, we don’t mind. But, Yuki-san are you really a dungeon master. We aren’t doubting you but you are completely different from the stories we have heard about dungeon masters.]
[Please excuse me but I don’t understand what those dungeon masters that Herge-sama speaks of are like]
[What do you mean by that?]
[I was…]
[Please wait a second, I don’t mind if you speak normally. (he was speaking formally the whole time)]
[If that is so, I will take take you up on that offer. When I woke up I was suddenly made a manager of this dungeon or as you would say master.]

After that I started telling them a story built on lies. I didn’t know what the name of this continent was, and the place where I was from didn’t have dungeons. Before I came to live in this dungeon, I was a normal person living in a city. (In a way he’s not lying)
But, I intuitively understood that I was connected with the dungeon core here and that if anything happened to it, something bad would also happen to me. Although I lost my bearings, for the time being I protected this dungeon while trying to find people to talk to…

I guess it just kept coming out. Well most of it wasn’t a lie just with slight differences in meaning.

[So that’s what happened, Something like that]
[Ah, you might not believe me but please understand. I was also confused in the begining.]
[No, I trust Yuki-san’s actions. What do you think Oriel?]
[It makes sense. Besides there’s no point in deceiving us here.]
[Alright, well is it alright if I ask you a few things.]
[Yes no problem.]

And so, I asked about the information that I needed right now.
From now on, I started recording the question and anwer in a itemized list.

Dungeon administrator…Called Dungeon Master…When a dungeon is finished, a suppression party is immediately dispatched, It becomes a place for surveillance by adventurers and a familiar training ground for knights. The dungeon is also dangerous and the only safe place in a dungeon would be where the core is located. If the monsters are strong enough to be used as training partners then the dungeon isn’t captured immediately.

Also, a dungeon that has a dungeon master like me, is assigned the highest of level of danger, It’s been recorded up to now that 12 of these were found. Each time one was found, the country would send a company made up of its imperial guard to subjugate it. But in 2 instances there were dungeons that were strong enough to swallow a Maoh (demon king) and a powerful country back in those days.

A hero…as I thought they seem to exist, there seem to be heroes that rise from people of this world and that there have been a number of these heroes that have lived and died in these world. But even among them the heroes that come from another world are granted extraordinarily powerful skills suited for combat. Shit, after all they have other world summoning here.

Maoh….that too is according to the template. The king that rules the demons (mazoku) and apparitions (mamono). Well my definition is vague so I attached the definitions of this world. Well like there would be demon king who would just come out and say “show me your skills, ore ga maoh da (i am the demon king)”. Right now there seem to be two Demon kings on this continent. I will think of their names if I ever meet them.

Regarding this continent…I can’t understand its size based just on the conversation but the current location the dungeon is at is part of the country of Rochelle. 15 km from here there seems to be a city. “Shit! Isn’t 15 km too close?” I panicked thinking that but I guess this is a different world. There are no cars in this world and travel is by horses. Also outside the city there are a lot of mamono so travel is made more difficult. I guess Luna was right in situating me in this location.

Regarding the country of Rochelle…It’s said to be one of the five top nations in the continent. It said to be extremely powerful country that’s not looked down upon by others. Right now its in the middle of a struggle with another country with regards to territory. I felt that there was some exageration since in front of me there was the country’s princess.
I don’t know if she would tell me the situation regarding the country’s defence but when I asked her the population of the capital she gave the answer easily. [200,000 people reside in the flourishing capital and with benevolent king will continue to increase.]
200,000 people huh…As I thought, its the level of medieval Europe.

In regards to currency…it moves by the 10 incremental rule which helps me out a lot.
Copper<Silver<Gold<White Gold
1 gold coin can support a family of four for a month. Also the denominations (unit) are [Foru/Folu]

Regarding race…Like Luna said, those with animal ears attached are the beast race, the elves, the human race, and there are also those who are halves.
Well I recieved various information from them, gradually as I thought that I was getting hungry, it became 12 o’clock in the afternoon.

[Sorry for taking such a long time. Shall I prepare lunch?]

Chapter 7 – With the best of intentions, my motive is to help people!! – It’s a lie though!!

Chapter 7 – With the best of intentions, my motive is to help people!! It’s a lie though!!

In front of my eyes, there were two women on a simple bed trying to examine me.

Hmm, why are the two of them on the same bed?

Ah, the young lady moved near the maid huh.

I guess after the two of them suddenly got captured they couldn’t just sit there quietly being treated.

The maid might have moved towards the princess but realistically speaking, since she broke both her legs, that would be a problem. If she did infact had moved then that would have been worth praising but I guess it would also remind me of a horror type of feeling if I saw that at night.

[Oriel, don’t overdo it. Any more than this…]
[No, until my life runs out, I will be by your side.]
Ok, It became horror-esque.
[Yeah, yeah, please listen to my story]
[I can treat you guys, but I would like you to abide by certain conditions.]
[Don’t screw with me, Do you know who this person is?]
[Wait, Oriel…Could you also tell me some things? Why did you not forcefully make us submit to you?]

Hou, she seems to have a pretty high capacity to think.

Hmm, why did I not forcibly make them slaves and do this and that to them?

Let me prepare a simple answer. A japanese person wouldn’t just accept slaves. (Most people in mondern times would be against it so it makes sense.)

They probably wouldn’t believe me though.
In most light novels or manga, it’s proably a japanese person’s kindness? But its also alright if its a characteristic of the protagonist.

[Returning a question in reply to a question is rude but what’s the advantage in making you slaves?]

Right, the problem is the word “Slave”.
She, the princess, seem to have a face that just oozed the feeling that she couldn’t understand what I was talking about.

[Eh, tha, use in manual labor, or… indecent deeds, maybe.]

Including the latter part, that’s what the benefits of a slave are. It’s being “forced”.

Even on earth, the slavery system still existed. In short it could still be used. (we are slaves to corporations now- Mr. Robot)
But, even then, on earth the slavery system even if in just appearances is not accepted.

Because it’s not humane?
Don’t say stupid shit, you aren’t listening to such a ostensible reason right?
It’s just too inefficient.

In a way, in the short term it’s very efficient since all you have to do is gather people instead of paying wages.
“Rebellion” “Rioting” “Skill development stagnation”
There are a mountain of minus points that come with that short term benefit. At a certain point earthlings recognized that.
Below the surface, people being used as slaves, even on earth there’s a ton of situations like that.
It’s not like that? Don’t be stupid. Even now there are a lot of countries in the middle of civil wars.
They aren’t slaves? Then replacing the top of the country peacefull would end all the problems, right?
Even in modern Japan, the country’s top get replaced regularly.
That alone won’t improve anything. It won’t stop. It wouldn’t ever stop.
Countries like that still exist.
But, publically you will never hear the word “Slave” being flung around. If you did that then, thanks to the information society of earth, every country in the world would turn against you.

Well, that was long. My true motive is that if I use slaves to manage the dungeon, then in the short term it might be beneficial but in the long term it would be useless.
[Hmm, using you guys “forcefully” as slaves might be be good]
[Ehhhh]

This person’s a princess right? Is her head full of flowers? (As smart as a lawyer is honest)
[Then is the person next to your slave? I don’t know which city of village you come from but is everyone there a slave?]
(There no way it’s like that. I trust Oriel. I would never ever look down on her as if she was my slave.]
[It’s strange isn’t it. Even if you didn’t trust them as long as they were your slave then it would be fine anyway right?]
[I don’t desire something like…]

That’s how she understood the topic’s conclusion.

[You want us to trust you…possibly, it won’t work unless that happens right?]
[That’s how it is, it’s fine if you refuse. It’s not like I’m forcing like a slave. Well, I have my own circumstances too. I don’t need slaves but those who I could trust.
[Then in order to earn our trust, please treat Oriel’s wounds.]
[Don’t say stupid things, I don’t know that Oriel person. There’s now guarantee that she will attack me the moment she’s healed right?]

How should I put it, healing the person who staring you like your her mortal foe without any guarantees, who would be the stupid one then.
Personally, no matter how many cheats a protagonist was given when he/she was thrown into a new world, someone who treats someone like that would be labeled “stupid” by me.

[Oriel won’t attack you since you have saved my life, that I guarantee.]
[Uh, no, it’s impossible to guarantee that. That’s why first listen to my conditions.]
[…That’s fine. Speaking of that, I haven’t heard your conditions.]
[Then let me proceed in a simple way. You will let me cast my skill assigned guardian on you.]
[Assigned Guardian? It’s a skill I haven’t heard of]

[The effect is that whoever this skill is cast on the following effects will be generated: “Guaranteed safety” “Movement outside assigned zone restricted” “Causing harm to others is prohibited”, etc. This would be the things cast on you due to the skill. There nothing you will be forced to do like a slave would.]
[Nothing will be forced but it will be like a prisoner of war right? It’s not just this right? This isn’t all the conditions right? This will just be in regards to guaranteeing your own safety. Its seems to me from your previous story that you seem to have some other goal.]

[Oh my, I thought you were just a princess as a decoration(?) but you have thought of various things right? I have a better opinion of you now.]
[Yes, I have fallen all the way to a “Slave”. So no matter how much hope I have lost, if I can protect Oriel who has followed me uptil now then I will keep doing anything I can until the very end.]

[My conditions are that I would like your cooperation. I won’t reveal the particulars but I would like information on this continent. I saw that you were someone who resides in the upper echelons of society so lend me your knowlege. I won’t say give it to me for free. Depending on you cooperation from now on, I will free you and return you back to your own country.]
[Alright, I accept your terms. Oriel it’s alright, right?]
[…If Herge-sama say that then it’s fine]

[OK, then let me cast my skill]
[Please wait a moment, those men from before are still alive right. If you won’t free us first then.]
[Ah, I will ask them if it doesn’t work. But first let me try to cast it.]

I heard from Luna that anyone with the slavery collar on can be forced to listen to orders. Obviously, “attacking your master is forbidden” is a basic order that’s inserted in the collars. But my skill, overwrites that, atleast that’s what Luna said.

[Negotiating with your master on everything is troublesome isn’t it. Properly negotiating is one thing but negotiating is impossible when your opponent has one foot in the grave right?]

Then you might say that won’t it be fine if you just forcefully cast your skill on them. But the casting restriction is that the opponent has to willingly accept the spell or it won’t work.

When I cast the skill, only the princess had light envelop her and was released from the collar.
[…]
[It really came off! Then, I accepted your conditions. Please quickly treat Oriel!]
[I didn’t tell you this on purpose but this skill won’t work on someone unless they “accept” from their heart. Look at Miss Oriel over there.]
[…Oriel, you weren’t released, can’t be…]
[It, It’s not like that! That guy without fail just forgot to cast it on me!!]

[Hou, I’m the bad guy?]

This woman’s no good. It was good that I was on guard. This is proof that you can’t traverse through like just on good intentions.

[Please, give her one more chance…]
Herge, got on her knees and bowed her head.

[Even though, personally I would ignore it but will miss Oriel accept my conditions? Your master is bowing head to me for you.]
[…Alright, I accept your conditions. But, if you hurt Herge-sama, I will definitely kill you]
[Oriel!!]

Even though Herge chided her, Oriel didn’t stop staring at me.

[It’s fine with me, besides aside from the conditions, I didn’t have any intention to restrict you. Then, here I go]
And so, the collar fell from Oriel’s head.
[Well then, let me begin treating you. “Extra Heal”]

The two women were wrapped in a light green light.

[Wha, Extra Heal! Moreover on multiple targets! Are you a famous healer?]

Herge-san…The princess was looking at me with a surprised look.
Oriel stood up and then tried to open and close her hands. Then she jumped for a little while.
That’s how she confirmed that she was properly healed.

[I won’t say thanks. This was a deal, afterwards I will properly retain the favor.]
[Oriel!!]

[Ah, if you just follow the terms of the deal than there’s no problem. Something like “Trust” is built so fast anyway. For now just rest here and we can discuss more things tommorrow.]

Saying that I moved to leave the room.
[Ah, Thank You very much. It might be rude now but my name is Herge. What is your name if I may ask?]

I won’t say my full name but well I guess I need to tell what to call me.
Well in any case I guess I will introduce myself.

[That was rude of me. My name is Yuki. You might have realized but I am the manager of this dungeon. Well if you have any problems, you can just call the goblins standing outside. We will try to accomodate you as much as we can.]

Saying that, I left the room.

Chapter 6 Operation Complete! Shall we have a word?

Chapter 6 – Operation Complete! Shall we have a word?

Where did last time’s big story go? Meta appearing. Don’t mind.

Let’s ask in reverse, if you guys were fighting while risking your life, would you stop attacking if like in movies the enemy starts crying their eyes out.

You might ask why am I frivolously talking like this? It’s simple.

[G company take the prisoners to where the 2nd squad is stationed for holding. The remaining two squads will resume their normal duties while taking precautions against any enemy reinforcements.]

All objectives cleared. Capturing successful. Ally casualties zero. Complete Victory.

Eh, where did the level difference from the beginning go? This is that lesson isn’t it where things don’t always go 100% in the world.

Well let me tell you what transpired in the post-op debriefing.

Accomplishing primary objective took 3 minutes.

Its already at the level of preparing a bath. (I didn’t get this) []

The three from the primary objective and the 2 from the secondary objective where presented before causing be to at loss of words. But after that the operation transition went by smoothly.

Let me explain the events that occurred at 1st interception point alpha.

It took place at the center crossroads of the first floor.

There G company’s 1st squad was used as a decoy to lure the enemy in and attract their attention.

Starting of the battle was delayed slightly because their goals weren’t as clear as they could have been.

In a way it helped us out since we could accomplish the secondary objective by capturing the two slaves.

The primary objective was successful as the enemy was caught in the crossfire in the middle of the crossroad. Of course there weren’t any guns or anything like that.

The third phase of the plan occurred as the enemy was surrounded by my subordinates.

Eh, where was this military operation from? Fantasy right? No, no, its like something I saw in some light novel where the monsters were free to move around preventing the enemy to attack them efficiently.

Well, anyhow, they finally realized that falling in this situation was part of the plan and that they just got trapped.

[Oi, this is…]

[… The goblins….Curse, can I count on you?]

[Leave it to me, give me 20 seconds]

No, no, you guys are already trapped. Both the front and the sides have the 3 squads from G company and behind them is 1 squad of the S company.

But that wasn’t all. Don’t you guys remember? The slime exclusive hole that I had already made.

And so, the slimes attacked from the ceiling, latched on to the magician’s face interrupting his incantation. While also choking him just as planned.

[Whga…]

[Shit, don’t move curse!!]

The other two moved to support the magician. The other two also had slimes latched onto their faces. This strategy was posted in the forums.

The modernization of the slimes’ group battle strategies Part 2

I thought they wouldn’t be able to read the atmosphere but they replied seriously.

Burying themselves in the opponents lungs and mouth so they couldn’t breathe.

If they attack from the ceiling, they’re pretty much unbeatable against humans aren’t they?

To make it work perfectly you would need to make sure the opponent doesn’t have his guard against enemies from the ceiling, so a diversion is needed.

111: Anonymous

Well if you’re thinking about this seriously, then the most efficient strategy would be this. Most living things’ eyes and mouth are near each other so if you could block them, you pretty much win.

….I guess even against a Maou, this could earn me victory.

112: Anonymous

No, no, as you would expect that wouldn’t work.

After all it’s a Maou. Using some sort of magic they could just block the slime off. It’s the same with a Hero right?

113: Anonymous

I don’t know so I can’t say for sure that it won’t work. You don’t if any of this would work in reality. Whether its blown off or not. Ah, but the question would be what would happen if the slime used was the type to have core?

114: Anonymous

In that case, you could cover the respiratory organs using most of the body and then extend the core away to another place so the the opponent would be in a daze trying to get it off his/her face while the core would stay safe.

That’s how the conversation went. Forums are pretty scary-. I understood this when I used the slimes.

The result being

[Ga, bo,bo]

[…!!]

[Go, bo, bo,b]

The primary objective was accomplished so easily that I moved these 3 to the secondary objective. Successful capture. From now on, lets use these convenient slimes to manage this dungeon. (Slimes are OP in this and the novel about the man picked up the gods)

[This…is?]

[Herge-sama]

The two women who were left there didn’t seem to comprehend what just happened. Well, while I’m waiting for them to be brought to me, I have better my own issues.

The operation was too perfect, If you think it would proceed normally like this, it would turn into a very serious situation when an operation fails. It’s always my turn! I have to bear it. (?)

In different way, I have the “I’ve done it now” feeling. Of course, I couldn’t purposely cause the operation to fail. Right here, I have to properly instruct the solders.

[Nevertheless, this time’s results will raise the standard of our dungeon.]

While saying that, I arrived at the hospital (ward).

The 3rd floor has not only my room but various facilities that I thought would be useful.
(Well even if I say it’s a hospital, compared to Japan its just a room)
After all since I haven’t been earning DP, the room just has simple beds.
It’s at the level of wooden beds with straw on them.

(I had no choice but to do it patiently, after all its only been 9 days)
I wanted to make a place for sleeping for the subordinates but they seem to be making their own living quarters on the second floor.

While thinking about various things, I arrived in front of my goal.

Kon, kon, kon, kon (knock, knock)
Even if I’m in a different world, I’m not about to bend my pride or manners.
Although, I already seem to have broken some of those promises.

When there was no answer, I entered into the room causing the two girls to stare at me.

[Just what the heck are you doing?]
[…Herge-sama…please fall back]

Thinking this situation would proceed favorably would make me seem to be too optimistic, but I can’t move forward unless I talk.

[Let’s see, would please listen to what I have to say?]

Now then, Shall I try my best?

Chapter 4 Initiating Operations – We are the Proud Warriors

Chapter 4 Initiating Operations – We are the Proud Warriors

The goblins and slimes took about 7 days to grow exponentially. Within that period, everything from small animals to large animals and even some outsider goblins that entered were exterminated.

The results of the 7 days earned me 332 DP.

Using this, I fixed the dungeon’s deficiencies and made it so that it would be easier to work. I added more traps to support us. The new goblins and slimes started being brought in to prepare for the next enemy.

And so 2 days later [Humans] were detected by the slime scouts.

Right now the main force is on the 3rd floor in the war room being briefed on the situation.

[Right now we have detected 5 enemies near the dungeon. We will be able to obtain more information when they enter the labyrinth. I will convey the preliminary information. There is two front-line spear men, and 2 more support-type magicians behind the first 2. And finally there is 1 thief-type who is thought to be acting as their scout.]

The goblins and slimes were listening without showing any particular response. Aren’t you guys a little too dependable.

[Breaking them down by gender, the front two and the 1 in the rear are men and the remaining two are women. My impressions are that its a stable party…formation. The front-line will engage the enemy while the rear attacks with long-range attacks. The thief will use his speed to find the enemy and will support the entire battle.

In games, this the usual formation, sturdy, meaning…

[The enemies are experts so be prepared. G unit will deploy 3 squads to attack and two squads will standby as my guard. S unit will deploy 2 squads to backup the nearby G unit. The other 3 squads of S unit will be deployed in the 1 in a 1000 chance that the enemy won’t be taken out by the main force in which case they will launch a surprise attack to eliminate the enemy.]

G unit are the goblins and the S unit of courser are the slimes.

[The interception location will be the back of the 1st floor. Then let me convey the operation goals. Primary goal is to annihilate the enemies. Secondary goal is to capture the enemy. In regards to the secondary goal, I would like the leader but its alright if you give priority to the primary objective. Then the ETA for the enemy is 1430 hours so standby until 1400.]

The secondary goal of capturing them alive was to get some information from the outside. It will help me manage the dungeon more effectively but this time I think it will be difficult to capture the enemy.

In any case, I can’t judge the situation until they step withing the dungeon allowing me to analyze them.

And so everyone was assembled. Switching standby position.

And so at 1430 the intruders arrived starting the operation. They arrived earlier than expected. As I expected they appear to be veterans.

Starting analysis.

First I check the statuses of the men…of course I already reported the information to G unit and S unit. The average is around 40 huh. From our perspective that’s plenty strong but the statuses proportions compared to their levels show that my subordinates are stronger, aren’t they? Or does it mean that gaining levels will be easier from now on. There maybe more progress since their races are different? I can’t come to the conclusion right now though.

Also under rewards and punishments, ruler of the past and hero of the past is worth noting. They seem to have some grand history. Well let’s judge them after looking at the women.

…A maid huh. No, but is the rewards and punishments section for the women ignored? Even though I haven’t heard the circumstances from the slaves themselves I can still understand that their circumstances are bad. I can make this the secondary goal then.

[I will start giving you individual directives. The information is as you see it is. The main obstruction are the 3 men. The two women according to their statuses are pretty much powerless. As such make the two women priority for the secondary objective. G unit 1st squad will capture them. The remaining men will be shifted to primary objective. There’s no need to hold back, crush them with your full might. If they survive by coincidence capture them too according to the secondary objective.]

[No change in the operation. The first interception will take place at point alpha, point beta will be the second interception point. Point theta will be the last defense line of the 1st floor and will be the third attack point.]

After finishing giving out orders, I opened up the map to see G unit and S unit approach the enemy at point alpha. The enemy markers seem to be slowly moving forward. Monitoring them in real time I can see that the two girls’ statuses aren’t looking good.

The heroine flag and the troublesome flag usually seem to coincide but from  my perspective who knows nothing about this world, this royal and the escort are greatly appreciated. Using the word protection if I can get them on my side even though it might be troublesome will have great deal of merit.

And so the enemy arrived at point alpha…

[Start Operation! We are the proud soldiers! Ladies and Gentlemen, I expect a good fight!]

Let’s see, how far we can fight enemies with statuses above ours?

Chapter 3 – The things needed for my Victory – Namely Training

Chapter 3 – The things needed for my Victory – Namely Training

The smart phone’s alarm echoed. As always, I woke up and got ready for work.

[Ah, that’s right, I came to another world, for real]

Getting up, I don’t seem to have any of my normal obligations to fulfill.

Should I say, the me now, is sleeping inside a mental hospital and that I actually haven’t gone to another world?

If I think about it, whether I’m in a drama or a delusion. I don’t really want to be reckless. I still have my dignity and morals after all.

Well. Let’s stop escaping from reality. Let’s start managing the dungeon quickly.

But I have no choice but to start teaching (battle tactics) and raising the goblins and the green slimes under me. Its sad that even though a day has passed, I haven’t gained any DP. It seems that monsters made inside a dungeon and their mana won’t earn me any DP. Which reminds me how do I go about earning DP anyway. The goal of this dungeon is make mana flow back in a cycle which basically means that I need to collect mana from outside and convert it into DP. That’s right, from the outside, meaning that I can’t earn any from my monsters. Basically, even if the monsters spend use mana inside the dungeon I can at least absorb it to mitigate some of their maintenance costs. I can also inject my own mana directly into the dungeon core to change it into DP but personally that seems a bit iffy. I don’t know even know when my life could end, I can’t just use my mana, my only lifeline, and convert it into DP. Still it seems to be relief system in a way, since the dungeon core can earn DP from mana at 10% efficiency (10 mana= 1 DP). My maximum mana is currently 690 and so I can change it all into 69 DP. Honestly, I just want to shut myself in for a year and accumulate DP.

But, the way to earn DP would be to invite enemies into the dungeon and kill them, that would be easiest way to earn DP. When you kill an enemy, it seems their MP+HP gets converted to DP at 100% efficiency. In reality, I haven’t killed anything yet thought. In other words, I have no data. Even using the tutorial, I’m the type that can’t believe if its true or not. Lets use MP for the next enemy. In other words lets hit them with a magic attack. Since inside the dungeon, the enemies MP is scattered and turned into DP. The last way is the least efficient to earn DP but at the same time the easiest way to earn. Any living things that stay inside the dungeon for more than a hour will automatically start having their MP being absorbed and converted to DP. The efficiency is that after an hour 1 person can earn 1 DP. It goes up if they are a powerful magician or a hero but normally it’s 1 DP/hr. Prospectively speaking, in the future creating a city inside the dungeon would be a good way to earn DP semi-permanently. But that’s difficult. Until now dungeons have been the entrance to death to people, so people living inside the dungeon is something of the distant future. Wild animals are fine but that too is a little iffy.

Shall I return to the beginning, that’s why right now, defeating the enemies that come to the dungeon is the only thing I can do. Right now the goblin and green slime subordinates are strangely strong according to Luna. The earthling that’s me might be the cause but for me that’s not all that assuring. However strong they are racially speaking, they can’t hope to defeat a LV 100 enemy. Personally, I can’t relax until I have subordinates that can defeat heroes or demon kings with ease. In manga and light novels, when you get monsters that are stronger than normal to be your comrades (nakama), they would the same as reliable partners. But that’s just self-conceit in of it self.

That’s why I will give my subordinates the weapon called the the internet to use freely…

[I’m gonna start training you guys now!! In order to defeat the enemy, but actually its a little different. My real goal is to surpass my current self!! You guys don’t know in what way. No, you guys are smart so you do know. After all, how long will you fight, in other words, the enemy you can’t defeat today you will defeat tomorrow. That’s not winning against the enemy, that’s winning against the you of yesterday who couldn’t defeat the opponent. Don’t get conceited. Learn, and become stronger so you won’t lose to the you of yesterday.]

I don’t know if they understood the speech just now, I began telling them the specifics for their training regardless.

[First of all, Form teams of 5 and decide your Captain and lieutenant. Form a platoon (2+ squads) and start training… I will have you learn CQB (close quarter battle)!!]

I don’t have guns but this still has a considerable meaning to it. The middle ages’ civilization’s coordination and our current modern combat techniques’ differences will be shown. Mentally and technically too. By the way, you might say, doesn’t teaching human battle strategies to goblins have any meaning? But don’t worry.

On the bulletin board (probably some forum on the internet), how do you optimally teach Slimes and Goblins CQB was posted to the boards. Everything from interesting viewpoints to surefire techniques started coming out. Gathering the modern people of earth and the board where they can express their opinions, I can’t even compare it to the this world’s civilization’s insulated exchanges of opinions.

However, special training alone isn’t enough, including classroom training will make them even stronger. That’s why let me explain the dungeon’s composition.

1st floor

The orthodox labyrinth. The dungeon made of stone is here. Here there a strategical net of traps laid out. Also there is the slimes’ exclusive strategy of attack in the narrow corridor. This would be place where they can use CQB to the best of their abilities.

2nd Floor

Using grasslands and the forest to create a field type battlefield. Everything in here is to be used at your own discretion to make traps so that the enemy falls into confusion.

3rd Floor

The final defensive line and the floor that has my room. The dungeon core is also here. So using that, we can corner the enemy and teach them that letting your guard down is the greatest enemy.

The goblins and green slimes were trained to the limits of my plans.

That result being…

OK, that’s definitely a God alright. I can’t tell if the status is low or high but age wise, I think she’s definitely in the millions of years old. I guess I can believe it since she’s a god.

[Why are you just looking at my age?!!! Be surprised about the other things!!!]

I see, my status isn’t really that different from the average except for things related to magic. I guess I can’t help it if my physical ability is a little behind. After all this world is in the middle age of Europe and the average here high because of the jobs that need a lot of physical ability. But how is physical ability calculated, as I think that and ask Luna…

[Ahh, physical ability is simpler than you think. Do you think Physical ability = Offensive ability then you subtract defensive ability and if it is high enough you won’t take any damage no matter how many attacks hit you?]

[I see, Even if 150 Str at most you would be able to punch with full power about 10 times and if it its just right you might die from even that.]

[That’s how it is, well if you guard right and avoid a critical then that probably won’t happen.]

[Oh, right right, you have the [All Purpose Judgement] skill so why don’t you look at the statuses of those goblins]

[Alright.]

After saying that, I called each slime and goblin one by one. I can summon them using the Dungeon Skill Monster Summon Skill so its pretty convenient. So let me explain the monsters’ statuses. Monster can be called using my mana from the summoning circle. Basically, Spending 300 DP: Both the summoning circles for goblins and slimes cost me 100 DP. Each one’s maintenance costs is 2 DP. So I have about a 100 of both slimes and goblins (50:50) loitering about. This will also probably increase based on their rank and rarity huh…(he’s talking about summoning cost).

Let’s look at their statuses.

Liquid Body (Can be activated based on any designation)

Free Body (Can manipulate the body based on thought (tentacles))

Blessing of the Dungeon Administrator (Status Up)

Normal Skill:

Spear Lv 1

[What? The level’s higher than mine…and this world’s slimes seem pretty strong.]

The slimes from games and stories have varied stats. Soft body is probably because they are living creatures. There also setting where they can be defeated by anything except fire magic. Well the weak image was formed by that game anyways (I think it was dragon quest?). But even in that game if you raised it to Lv 99 it would become legendary.

[What are you talking about? Having slimes be higher level than their summoner but if you look at their statuses buhaaa, what are these slimes and goblins?! They have way too many skills!!! And then compared to their level their intelligence and magic ability is so freaking high!! Earth is scary!!!]

Luna used her own analyzing ability and started laughing looking at the statuses of the goblins and slimes.

Looking at two of their statuses, I thought if their intelligence is this high, are they smarter than humans?

[Hey are these guys smarter than humans?]

[Ah, the status describes potential ability. Are you able to use your current abilities to the fullest?]

[Meaning that even if they are clever, if they haven’t learned anything then its no good?]

[Yeah, even if they have the ability to memorize 100 things, if they can’t recall anything than they will always fall behind those who can recall even 1 thing. Physical ability and offensive ability are easy to understand but intelligence is more complex. Its easy for humans to learn but hard for monsters.]

I see, if I teach them, then maybe in the future they may even be able to use math. First lets stuff them full of battle tactics since if they don’t have them then they won’t even have a future. Both me and these guys.

[Then, I guess I will go back too. If you use that mail-order delivery then you can contact me too. I can sell you the map of this place for DP so do your best. This place is in a position where both monsters and humans will come. If you do things well, you won’t run of out DP.]

Saying that she got up from her seat and I saw her off without standing up.

[Really, aren’t you skipping a lot of steps. Can’t you teach me things like this place’s location and the surrounding countries’s relationships.]

[Oh my, if I gave you all the information, it would be too boring right? It’s good to fumble. Since that’s how you grow.]

Saying that, Luna disappeared.

[Well my environment was prepared for me but I still have no clue what circumstances I’m currently in. But exploring myself is probably too reckless. For now let’s just shut myself in the dungeon and play some games.’

And that’s how the first day in the new world ended…

Sorry guys for the late release. I think it might have been the recent storms but my Internet was gone for 2 days and I pretty much died a little inside.

Chapter 1 Let’s Make a Dungeon – Soko Hore WanWan

Chapter 1 – Let’s Make a Dungeon – Soko Hore WanWan (Soko=over there; hore=dig; wanwan=bowwow;)

After the light disappeared and my I regained my sight, I was standing between a forest and a wide plain.

[Alright, this time you seemed to have actually made it.]

By the way, Before when I dodged, she tried to find me around here for two hours. An extreme idiot.

[So, wanna talk? Or make a dungeon first?]

For now the surroundings seem to be quiet. From the previous explanation, this place is at level of Europe in the middle ages with slaves and monsters welcome. Can’t relax at all…

[Hmm, first, lets make a place where we can talk calmly.]

[…]

[…]

The silence continued.

[Why don’t you say it?]

[Don’t give it such an idiotic name!!!]

My anger is definitely appropriate.

But, with this nothing will be started…Ah, she did say she gave me a skill. Then, maybe…

[?!!]

Luna is wearing an astonished expression. That’s because even though I didn’t say Soko Hore WanWan and yet in front of my eyes a window popped out. By the way the skill’s title was [Soko Hore WanWan Dungeon Maker-w]. It’s pissing me off. By the way there was a GIF of a dog digging a hole. Pointlessly good.

[Whoa, without chanting, wait, read the mood!!!]

[No, you read the mood!]

As I thought, it worked without an incantation. I’m thankful only at times like these.

By the way, hearing it later it seems that magic and skills activated after chanting their name or chant.

Chant-less incantation is hard to understand but the usual fireball would finally be activated after saying some line like [Fire use my magic…]. The height of Chuunibyou. (when people have crazy delusions). Well if I simply rank the level of chant-less magic:

Chant-less>5 levels of shortened chant magic>5 levels of speed chanted magic.

By the way it seems the Soko Hore WanWan chant is usually 4 hours long…freaking annoying.

So, Soko Hore WanWan….uhh, Dungeon Maker is fine. Well looking at that, somehow I’m still able to use it and since there was a tutorial, it wasn’t that bad. Is it syncing with me? It seems to be use my image of using a PC and seems to display a 3D image. A touch-panel in the air like PCs from the future… (Like from the Iron man movies).

[Your so boring, well first of all, this is from me, you first salary]

Ping and on the terminal in front of my eyes, a message appeared.

[Received 1500 DP (Dungeon Points).]

Don’t say things like initial salary! It somehow feels like this place is my new workplace…no, it’s no different from a job…but just a little…

Well, regaining my reason, I started activating the dungeon creating system…also since Luna was here no monsters could come closer.

So, this dungeon maker seems to be one troublesome thing. If I had to say what I was feeling then first we would need secure land by spending DP. What does securing land mean anyway? Basically in Japan, how much does it cost to own 1 sq. ft type of feeling. Somehow I didn’t really have any motivation to make anything causing Luna to start complaining.

[What, you, if you can’t even do this level of management, how are you going to operate the dungeon?]

It’s true but I can’t accept it. By the way, this technique was used by a lot of people a long time ago where they would make a large dungeon and leaved it as it is. It’s definitely natural. Bring me a spreadsheet program!? By the way there’s also maintenance costs. Finally you seem to be able to sell stuff too. Uh… it’s already no different from earth. Well, first lets write down our expenses. This dungeon maker seems to also have journal function.

200 DP 2 sq. Km of land (100 DP/Sq. Km) Yearly Maintenance Costs (10 DP/Sq. Km)

100 DP 1 sq. Km of land [Depth] (100 DP/Sq. Km) Yearly Maintenance Costs (10 DP/Sq. Km)

300 DP 3 Floors (100 DP/Floor)

150 DP 3 Floor Customization (50 DP/Floor)

150 DP Trap creation (DP depends on Trap)

30 DP 3 Floors of Trap customization (1 Floor Customization=10 DP)

300 DP Monster Summoning (Details Later)

150 DP Personal Room Furniture (Mail Order System)

Total of 1380 DP Used 120 DP Remaining 90 DP after Maintenance Costs

The world is pretty difficult…If I just stay indoors then in 4 years I’m out. Aren’t my savings lower than when I was back on Earth?

Well with this feeling, I finally made it. Oh, the prerequisite condition was all the rooms had to be connected so I couldn’t use my plan to isolate my room. Well, somehow I will figure it out.

Also the most important thing is the dungeon core as part of the contract. Its part of the job to protect it, but also in this world it can be sold for a high price since it is used as a magic stone. A place to put your saved DP. I got 3 of these.

So if I let it get taken away 3 times then I won’t be able to manage the dungeon. It won’t be GAME OVER but it will definitely make things hard. Also if I don’t have at least 10 DP then the dungeon wont stay active. It seems its job is to act like a bank for the dungeon. So first of all deposited 10 DP into the core and stored the rest in the other cores. Moreover the core seems to collect the yearly maintenance fess and if there isn’t enough it will reduce its size accordingly. Needlessly efficient in that way. If you think about it, its possible to manage multiple dungeons.

Oh it seems you can also sell the core at the Dungeon Management Corner for 5000 DP.

???? item is probably MS or AC….probably requires 10,000,000 DP…

[Hey, if you’re done lets go your room]

Was she bored? Since she was wearing as sulky expression as she said that.

Whose fault do you think it is…

For now lets go back to my room and check out the situation, for that we took the shortest route to the lowest floor.

Luna seemed to be caught in a trap (Lol). Not even a lethal trap worked huh. I thought, I wonder what would even work on a god like her.

Prologue Part 3 Negotiations

Prologue Part 3 Negotiations

[Wh, why?]

After finishing screaming, the beauty began questioning me.

[Oh, its already a one-way ticket type of thing huh] – there isn’t anyone who would actually say that.

For now have a seat. I know your final goal but the details are still unknown.]

If there’s a person who just says well I’m off without knowing the goal or any details, please make sure to tell me. I want those people in our society who like to experience despair like in manga or light novels in our world. Those who act just knowing the goal but without hearing out details are easy to trick, so please pay attention.

[Well, you’re right. First lets get to know each other first. I Introductions were a little late, my name is Luna.]

No, no one wants to listen to your name and stuff.

[B91W58H85. I am also known by other names like Athena or Freya]

I just got some outrageous information. After hearing her 3-size information the latter part didn’t even register.

Hmm, I see, of course in this world there some merging of gods involved in the saying passed down.

[What, were you fascinated by me? I guess it can’t be helped. I am known as the the goddess of beauty.]

[No, no, it wasn’t anything like that. Tell me the details about the dungeon and how its management.

For the time being she’s annoying. Also this would-be god, Luna, has blonde shoulder length hair with one eye being blue and one being red. Heterochromia? She’s 170 cm tall (170/2.54=inches) which is normal for foreigners but tall for a person from Japan.

[You aren’t cute at all (originally it was like you don’t have the innocence of a child?). Alright I will explain it to you. But whether you hear me out or not the decision is already set in stone]

[No I want a brief, simple and easy to understand explanation.]

[No way]

This woman…

After that she talked for an hour and half and then after finishing went to make a simple guide.

The simple conclusion was:

Goal: Restore the other world’s , Alourit (some can suggest a better name it was A-ro-u-ri-to based on pronunciation), balance (energy=magic) by creating and managing a dungeon.

Reason: This other world’s magic circulation is what keeps the laws of nature in in effect and also is responsible for the activation of magic in that world, but that magic has become too constricted. Basically, The world’s environment has started worsening whether it be monsters or people (there are various races apparently). If it continues this way not only will the civilization that uses magic at its foundation will collapse but also any living things that use magic to live will go extinct. Well, that’s something that will happen after a couple of thousand years. The primary strategy is if you don’t want a god-like existence destroying the current world then the only way to restore the circulation of magic is by creating a dungeon. The dungeon will become an ground to lay the bait to kill any intelligent life whether it be a demon king, a hero, or even wild monsters so that you can recover the world magic. The result of the primary strategy, wait this isn’t because of me, I think. This primary strategy was originally entrusted to a native of Alourit. But it’s that, this world’s civilization level is that of the middle ages in Europe. So, the dungeon master was taken by their greed and lost control trying to take over the world resulting in being killed. The final result being failure. The second strategy is where I come in. Basically instead of leaving it to an idiot won’t it be fine if you assign someone smart? But this world’s average level leans on the spectrum towards idiot….yeah that’s right let’s get someone from another world.

So that’s when I thought, if you can’t use various people, why not Luna? There is no reason to go out of your way to use humans, well that’s what I was thinking when Luna said, [It’s fine temporarily but a god can’t stay in one place waiting for the world to end. Even you, since you have been born has moved from place to place.]

I see, it makes sense. I didn’t take into the account the scale of things. Us humans when we buy pets like dogs and cats, don’t take keep looking out for them until they die without doing anything else, its impossible.

[The gods you know who are omnipotent and omniscience are only tiny amount. And they all act with prudence to make sure they don’t effect the world.]

Are there gods who are omniscience and omnipotent!!?

[Depending on the circumstances the those gods can come into the world but… is it the drop in quality, honestly here its natural phenomena. In Alourit, its to restrict monsters and spirits. They are superior in quality but overall they encounter many difficulties.]

Yeah, after all its the same whether your managing the world or a company, I guess the level…

[To tell you the truth, Japan’s level is higher compared to Alourit’s gods.]

Ohh, Alourit’s gods, that’s sucks.

But I understand, the people in light novels, manga, or even our world, despairing won’t result in the problems being solved. But, I have a question. Even if you send me, I will only probably be able to work at a maximum of a 100 years.

[Oh, I forgot to mention, I will be giving you eternal youth (say that from the beginning?). You might be sick but you won’t die. I won’t give you immortality since if you go berserk I have to come personally to deal with you and its troublesome for me.]

Ah, yeah I understand. Even if I manage the dungeon if I go berserk than there needs to be some way to stop me.

[I understand most of it, but why can’t I come back?]

[Now look here, You understand this world’s affairs right? If I connect the modern world and that world of swords and magic together, what do you think would happen?]

[Just like that, earth would swallow Alourit, but is magic that weak?]

[No but this side has things like nuclear weapons, and things like aviation and space travel that can compare to that world’s civilization level.]

[I understand, you want to maintain Alourit’s civilization level right? You can’t have earth’s civilization level mix right?]

[Yeah, But perhaps I should say that before even earth finishes analyzing magic, Alourit would have already been captured.]

[And yet, I can pass on my culture to them?]

This is where its the strangest, If I go there with eternal youth then I would definitely influence Alourit’s culture]

[What are you saying?] Its your culture right? You, are you planning on trying to build Japanese castles over there?]

[I understand, so its like that. If I just personally try to change the culture overall in the course of time it will be erased and is fine right?]

[Yeah its like that. If your able to pass on your culture then its fine but I highly doubt if will occur. Ultimately your goal is to manage the dungeon though.]

Well of course it would be like that, since my culture is not someone that just one person can teach. Whether its monsters or humans, if I announce them to die then most definitely I will be made an enemy of the world . No, just restoring magic circulation again is fine. If I can designate a spot where I can live like here then its fine. Which ever way I go, I feel like a tyrant.

[Well, you understood various things, right.. Managing a dungeon like a circulatory organ is best and efficient.]

[OK, I understood the story. But what about me circumstances? Will my family forget about me? Going to that world without anything, there’s no way I can manage.

Honestly, because its a forced transfer, I have basically given about family and stuff. After that its about work. Will someone replace me? I will also be causing trouble for a lot of clients not to mention trouble to my seniors and juniors.

[Family and work huh. Basically, it will be like you never met or existed. They will continue to keep going so its fine. Also I’m not gonna send you without any prep. I will be giving you skills from my side. I will also support you, everything except coming back to earth. I will grant any wish within reason.]

[Houu, within reason huh…]

[Then RX-7X [No way I can’t make be like the 1 year war] (gundam reference)

Che, why do you know this side’s anime.

[Then, White Glint [What you want to make a company destroy a country?]] (armored core)

What, things from games are also restricted!

[Well how about I reward you with that after you complete your job. Also later I can deliver you things from this world if you want.]

Eh, if I succeed I can ride in Mobile suit (MS) or Armored core (AC)!! For reals!?

Oops, I got too excited, If I don’t get the promised cheat than I won’t know what to do. Please spare me from suddenly arriving and dying.

[Then are small arms also forbidden? Having a person license but making the opponent unable to use it. [Nope, that’s also after you can manage the dungeon well. On the other side, it they use them even if they don’t know how; you know what would happen right?]

[Eh, its fine if I don’t disrupt the world’s balance and use it defensively, right.]

[The answer is No. Things that are above the current level of civilization are banned in the beginning. I want you to diligently manage the dungeon. Well do you have any demands?]

[You pretty much denied everything…I guess it can’t be helped. Instant Death Evasion and a ring that can help me escape to a safe zone.]

[Oh my, is that fine? At most its just avoiding instant death? If you received a serious wound then you will probably still die?!]

[Then would you be willing to give me instant recovery skill?]

[No way, that’s basically immortality. Well if you do well than I will think about it.]

Che, its more annoying than expected. I can get a cheat preventing death after all….then.

[Alright, for my future subordinates and comrades, I want a item that can guarantee their safety without restrictions.]

[Guaranteed safety huh. I understand, Its a useful tool huh. That’s within the tolerance level, OK, that’s fine]

Alright somehow it worked out. I can be immortal but I can use [Safety] and [Guarantee]….

[Negotiations and explanations are mostly over… then later shall we go to Alourit and work out the details there.

Luna pointed here hand at me. Ah, the useless struggle ends here huh. It can’t be helped let’s somehow make it work and aim for White Glint…. (lol).

This was a longer and confusing chapter for me. The words culture and civilization might need to be switched as I wasn’t sure when to use which word. Till Tomorrow. Might edit it tomorrow. Feel free to make a suggestion for the worlds name based on the pronunciation, I’m not that good at changing romaji back to english.

Hisshou Dungeon Unei Houhou Prologue Part 2

Prologue Part 2 – I Still Refuse

Light shined in a room of the common apartment.

The light that shined out from the windows of the room, pushed out the sunlight and created shadows. But there wasn’t a person there to react to it.

[All right, Shall I go after him]

Saying that the beauty who shined the light vanished.

And then, only the sound of the game he was playing was left.

[Well shall I continue…]

The man was from before was there gripping his game controller.

Uh, why didn’t I stick to my promise? What kind of idiotic thing are you saying?

If someone points their palm towards you and says I’m about to do something, no one would just stand there, please tell if that doesn’t happen.

It’s a simple matter, while I was playing a game there was a table between the console and me. Nowadays, wireless controllers are pretty convenient. Back in the old days because of the cord you couldn’t sit far away.

Ah, continuing on, that beauty (trespasser) when she came in the second time she was on the side of the TV with the table in between and I was on the side of the sofa with the table between us. So when she took my phone away from me our places switched. So the dodged the light coming from the beauty’s hand by hiding under the table. The place underneath the table is an all-purpose place. This situation proved that it could be useful even in situations besides earthquakes (lol). I calmed down and went back to enjoying my day off. You might be asking why don’t I run away? But think about it carefully, the opponent showed up in a locked apartment so even if I ran away she would immediately catch up with me. The opponent is not someone who I can just run away from using just my own tenacity. Basically the next time she comes I will hear her out. With this, if the opponent gives up then I can go back to my normal life. Call the police? Try saying, [All of a sudden a girl showed up in my room!!]. That will most definitely get you sent to either a mental hospital or jail. For now, lets resume playing, The wall clock started ringing at 12 o’clock (Its one of those that probably goes off every hour).

[Should I make lunch or maybe eat out?]

An extremely troubling question, if I was in the middle of work then I would be restricted to eating out (probably at a convenient store). But right now I’m at home on my day off, I think that currently in Japan there is almost no adult male who can’t make his own food. May be even as a student they can make their own food. I’m not referring to the 3-minute ramen that you just need to add hot water to. If you’re living by yourself then its important to keep a balance between eating out and making your own food. But I just remembered something game changing.

[Oniichan, eat this later, alright?]

The grandma living next to me in the same building gave me some pickled vegetables to eat. For me her pickled vegetables are too good to pass up. It is good by itself, with rice, with tea and even with some sake (alcohol). But just by itself isn’t going to cut it so lets also accompany it with some rice.

[Miso soup, nori, fried fish, fried eggs] are Japan’s most basic foods. For me personally, I’m also fine with natto anytime of the day. For the rice, I already flipped the switch (rice cooker). Nori Ok, miso soup is also secured.

[Should I go buy some fish?]

Recently I have been having a piece at least once a day. So, I got my wallet, phone, and keys and left the apartment.

[Shit I bought two by accident just because the single was more expensive.]

So I’m looking at the two pieces I bought, that’s right buying two was way cheaper. Usually if you buy two its 10% off but today it was 80% off (almost like buy 1 get 1 free type thing).

Should I eat two, or maybe I should call the grandma next door; as I was worrying about things such as that, I opened the door…

[I never thought you would have dodged!!!]

Basically the trespassing beauty was standing in front of me in an imposing way.

So I couldn’t have escaped after all. So she once again pointed her hand at me,

[This time I won’t miss]

Yeah I probably won’t be able to dodge this time. But…

[If you want to eat, move aside. Have you eaten lunch yet?]

[Wha, no I haven’t had lunch yet]

[Then your just in time since I bought two fish, lets eat together and I will listen to your story]

I moved to the kitchen saying that.

[Sit on the sofa over there]

[Ah, alright]

She obediently went towards the sofa. When unexpected things happen, a human’s reactions slow down and they can’t think normally. Well lets put off the issue of whether she’s human or not.

And so after the meal…

[Thanks for the meal. Did you make the pickled vegetables]

[No, the grandma next door made them, delicious, right?]

[Yeah they were, but I can believe it, that flavor could be only created with many years of experience.]

[I agree, here’s some tea.]

[Tha, Thanks!}

Drinking tea together… Well, lets get back to the main topic.

[So, the promise was to listen to your story]

It’s probably bad but even if she’s a beauty, a god, or monster, I don’t have the patience to talk in a formal tone.

[Wha, Oh Yeah that right]

This one’s definitely no good.

Before I get hit by that light from before I had to say something.

[Just to hear your story we don’t really need to be transported, let me hear it here.]

[Hmmph! So you finally gave up, all right I will let you hear me out]

She perfectly started talking to me from a position looking down on me. She stood up and pointed her finger at me.

[I’m giving you an job to go to another world, manage a dungeon and restore that world’s balance.

Hearing that I didn’t become flustered. Of course most of it was according to my predictions. This level of trespassing and breaching of rules usually ends up as this sort of thing.

She continued with [You won’t be able to return to this world so take your possessions with you.]

Yeah I didn’t overlook that part

[I still refuse!!!]

Who would throw away their own current lifestyle?

[Eeeeeeehhhh!!!]

The voice resounded. Still there wasn’t anything surprising about it.
