Episode 025 There was no floor!! Impressive Pitfall
The next day, the lessons were mainly about orientation, so after the lessons, I decided to dive into a nearby dungeon.

-----------------------------------------
I didn't check my status the day before yesterday because of preparations and moving, and yesterday I overslept and didn't check my status, but I could check it this morning.
'Thinking' has become 'God Thinking'.
After the welcome party yesterday, I checked and found that the nearest E-rank dungeon is about 5 kilometers from the school. It's close enough to get there in 10 minutes if I run lightly.
Because of a certain someone it was found out that I am an explorer, so it shouldn't be a problem if I dive into a dungeon.
However, I need to conduct myself in the dungeon so that it isn't exposed that I'm weak. I'm going to move quietly towards a dungeon where there are no people as much as possible. Even I, a bottom explorer, should have that much detection ability.
After class, I returned to the dormitory with Aki, then prepared and secretly jumped out of the window and headed for the dungeon while hiding.
I can reach the target dungeon by jogging lightly for about 20 minutes.
[ The skill level of 'Hiding' has reached a certain level. It has met the notation conditions. ]
At the same time, my skill level increased.
Speaking of hiding, I think it was like a technique used by ninjas to hide themselves. Then, it may be an action such as eliminating your presence or letting your presence blend in with the surroundings.
Until now, I've been actively searching for monsters in dungeons, and I haven't been hiding in my daily life. This time, I took the act of hiding for the first time after being found out as an explorer. Thanks to that, I think that this skill level is now displayed.
I may have to thank that student council president in that respect ... No, that student council president is too alert. I won't forgive her.
I sneaked all the way to the entrance of the dungeon and showed my explorer card to the Union staff, but nothing was said.
Oh!! I'm grateful that there's a dungeon here!! The fact that people of my occupation can go through after showing their explorer's card without being told anything by the guards, means that if you show them your card, you can go through here even if it's the first time!! If it's okay to hide your face, I can go here!!(TN:Ouch, this paragraph ... painnnn)
I presented my card and went into the dungeon.
The dungeon here is the so-called labyrinth dungeon. It has a structure similar to a good old exploratory game, made of brick-like stone walls and floors.
"It's a dungeon that feels more fantasy-like than the cave-shaped dungeon that I dove into the first time."
I can only express it as fantasy because of my lack of vocabulary, but I feel like I'm in a coffee shop with a retro atmosphere.
Because it's my first E-rank dungeon. Unlike F-rank dungeons, there is also a danger to your life. You have to be careful not to get hit by your enemies or be struck by surprise.
While hiding so that monsters wouldn't find me, I went down the road where the ceiling, floor, adn walls were lined with bricks.
"Oh, it's here."
As I went along the road for a while, I felt that there was an enemy a little ahead. After all, if you have 'Five Senses' and 'Intuition', you can easily find enemies. It's the basics of being an explorer. I'm jealous that explorers other than me can find them sooner than I can.
This time I met a bipedal monster. Kobolin. It's a monster that has a body like a starving child attached to a dog's head, a mix between a so-called goblin and a kobold.
I slowly sneak up from behind so as not to be noticed. I don't make the same mistakes as the first time. Don't be afraid to take it step by step to get into the blind spot at your usual pace. Fortunately, it didn't seem to notice me even though it has a dog's head. Let's take a quick surprise.
-Paan
"Eh!?"
When I punched it while making sure not to make any noise like an assassin, it burst like in the F-rank dungeon and disappeared leaving a magic stone.
Are E-rank dungeon monsters so weak?
For a moment I had the illusion that I was strong.
No, I can't be strong because I have nothing but proficiency. In other words, I 'by chance' met a weak monster. It's possible because I've always been lucky.
I shook my head and got rid of such thoughts.
I'm the weakest explorer. I am the bottom of the explorers. Don't be upset.
I told myself such.
"Anyway, I'm lucky today."
Then I wandered around the first floor, avoiding places where I could feel the signs of other explorers. Unfortunately, I didn't find a treasure chest, but when I found the enemy multiple times, I quietly approached them and defeated them all with a single blow. There were about 30 in total. Besides, I was able to get some rare drops.
Isn't this proof that I'm just lucky?
"I was planning to stay on the first floor only, but should I go further?"
I haven't been able to have a good fight, so I decided to go further.
Second floor.
-Paan
Third floor.
-Paan
Fourth floor.
-Paan
Fifth floor.
-Paan
"This feels like deja vu ..."
I went down to the Fifth floor, but I didn't meet anything that could withstand my punches and kicks.
How lucky am I ...
Anyway, I wanted a level, skill, and ability score if I was lucky!!
Why is that the only place I'm not lucky!!
I felt angry at the unreasonableness.
-Gogogogogogogo
However, my luck was only that far.
"Oh, this might be dangerous."
The entire dungeon shakes, and pieces of bricks fall from the ceiling of the dungeon. I crouched down and placed both hands on the ground since I couldn't stand due to the shaking. I waited a while, but instead of settling down, the shaking got fiercer.
"Ah."
A few seconds later, I noticed that the ground had disappeared.
"Uwaaaaaaa!!"
I fell into the pitch-black darkness as if I was sucked in.
