Chapter 241: Easy Dungeon Clear

It has been a week since the two expert level mages became our neighbor. And I found myself watching the house they live in more often. Though I didn't do it at night and morning since someone would sleep with me.

The two expert level mages have adapted with their new lives. I think Veronica smiles more often now than back then. Both Celestine and Veronica enjoy the company of my girlfriends. And they would often go shopping together.

With my money!

They need to get their own money now, so I suggested the two to register to the guild and became hunters. With two expert level mages, the creation of the clan will be quicker. And I heard that Kron has reached S-rank now. He said that he will visit Cassau soon. I guess we'll build the clan once he's here. It's easier to get recognized if he's with me.

But it will be a while until he's here, so I guess I'll go enter a dungeon. The underwater dungeon near my diving spot. It has been a year since I found it, but I haven't once entered it. I guess today is the day.

And just like every morning, we gathered in the dining hall and I ask what their plan for today will be. Celestine, Veronica, and the orphans also eating with us.

The oldest orphan is a boy about the same age as Hannah. And he would always look at Hannah shyly. You're too young, boy.

And the youngest is a little girl the same age as Lana. Both her and Lana is inseparable just after their first meeting. Alan seems jealous when he sees her sister is being taken.

Both Celestine and Veronica were shocked when they hear that Alan and Lana are Albert's children. They have heard that the king has a successor and it's a boy. They don't know that the queen gave birth to twins. And their daughter is already capable of using ice magic well.

Well, let's go to the main business here.

"So, I'm going into an underwater dungeon near my diving spot. Anyone coming?" I asked if there are anyone who wants to come.

"Roy, I don't think there will be anyone who is interested in going there other than you. You're the only one who can breathe underwater and fight there. Water mage might be able to do something, but I think it's better if you scout that dungeon first. Once you have cleared the dungeon, and you think that it's fine for the other to enter that dungeon, then you can ask someone to come with you." Kayla said.

Hmm… she's right. Although with my intermediate level air magic I can have several other people breathe underwater, I can't force them to fight underwater. I guess it's another lonely dungeon exploration. Sigh…

"There's an underwater dungeon? I'm curious! Can I come?" Celestine seems interested in joining me exploring the dungeon.

Ever since she came here, she encounters many things for the first time. Especially since all her life, the cult is the only thing that she knew. She's able to reach expert level, but she never once entered a dungeon.

She's also very active in taking quests from the guild and enjoyed getting paid since she always has money when she's in the cult without even doing anything.

When I said that I get a lot of money by diving, she's interested in going to the sea. And she also enjoyed shopping clothes with Veronica and the girls. Especially since they can wear the flattening underwear made of Blobbies, they can now buy cute clothes that doesn't fit them before.

And seeing other girls interested in having flattening underwear as well since they can buy any clothes they want without caring about the size, I gave them some Blobbies. Good thing Victoria has improved a lot and can make hundreds of clones now.

And since the flattening underwear is so popular, Lina decided to create some by using the vines from Sunny and the elasticity of her All-seeing Eye's tentacles. They can be regenerated after a while after all.

As for the All-seeing Eye, Lina decided to name it… Elsie. From All-seeing, to Elsie. At least it's better than my naming sense. Which is to name it Eyesie.

"…I want to go as well. Can I come?"

Not just Celestine, Veronica also interested in many new things as well. and I don't think the two of them have entered a dungeon before.

But since they never knew many things, I can't take them with me.

"Well, can you two swims? And I don't think that you two even have swimsuits. Sorry, but I can't bring you even though you are the two strongest people here. I'll take you to another dungeon some other time." I said.

"Then once you return from the dungeon, we all can play in the lake. We can teach both of them to swim then. And since the lake is safe, we can bring the children as well. How about it?" Sophie suggested.

"The lake! I want to swim in the lake! Can I come?" Daniel is excited hearing that we will go to the lake. As for the orphans, none of them understand anything except the word play. They are always excited to go and play.

"Sure. Let's go there the day after tomorrow. I don't know how deep the dungeon is after all. I might only return tomorrow. Or later if the dungeon is a short one"

And so, we make a new promise to go and play in the lake.

The lake has always been our location to try new magic we learned, sparring, and relaxing. And it's good as long as no one goes in too deep in the lake.

So, the girls decided to go out to go on another shopping spree. Just how much did they spend in just one week?  Good thing I didn't summon Shelia. Or my expense will increase even more.

And so, I went on another lonely dungeon exploration again. Even Victoria decided to join shopping with the girls.

I hope fifty Blobbies I bring with me will be enough. If not, let's escape.

I dive into the sea where the dungeon is located. Now I can see clearer inside of the dungeon. I hope there won't be any monsters that can fight from distance.

I don't think there will be any trouble. The only water monster that have caused trouble to me is only the Fishman. As long as there aren't any Fishman, I will be able to clear this dungeon easily.

…though there are many types of delicious looking fishes. If I open a portal underwater, I will be sucked in instead and bring a lot of water with me. So, I can't transfer these fishes from underwater to outside. Unless there's an emergency and I need to escape as soon as possible.

This dungeon is easy. I think this dungeon is for fish delicacies. There are some treasures as well, but they aren't worth mentioning. Just a common loot that I can find in other dungeons. Though they will be sold at a quite high price, so I will bring them back and gave them to Sam.

…if I want to open up a restaurant, entering this dungeon regularly will be the easiest way to get the materials for cooking. But I think I'll just go there every time I want to eat some seafoods.

Only I need to eat these delicious seafoods. Other doesn't matter.

I finally reach the end of the dungeon. And there's only one treasure chest left after defeating a shark monster. I open the chest and see that it's some kind of… what is this thing?

I can feel some kind of air magic in this tube-shaped thing. Will I be able to breathe underwater by equipping this thing?

Oh? The middle part is narrower than the side. I guess that's where I should bite it.

I bite the tube, and deactivate my air magic to see if I can breathe using this equipment or not.

Oh! It works! But I don't need it. I guess I'll give it to someone. But who? Let's just keep it for now.

I guess that's it for this dungeon exploration. Let's go back. We'll be having seafood for dinner.

Just like usual, I left the sea, run on water or the sky when no one is watching. I thought of using portal to return quickly, but I want to run today since the weather is nice.

I have transferred all the fishes with portals, so I just look like a hunter returning from a quest.

I enter the city normally through the gate, and greet the gatekeepers who knows me since I often leave through this gate to go diving.

I thought that maybe if I walk around the city, I will be able to meet the girls while they are shopping.

I was right that I can meet them, but they are not shopping at the moment.

Some men surround them and try to flirt with them. I guess they must be outsiders since they don't seem to know about Kayla's nickname as the Nutcracker.

What will the girls do, I wonder? I don't have to worry since there are two expert level mages in the group. Let's just watch the show. If I guess correctly, either Kayla or Jewel will say something to make them stop.

It's interesting, so let's watch how it goes.
