230 Chapter 16-8 Report

"Thank you for reporting."

As soon as I went to report the new dungeon to the King, I was put through during a glance to give an explanation in front of the nobles who worked for the Royal Castle.

The explanation ended in a short time, so I just wanted to go home, but no one gave me permission to return because soon the king began to think of something and the nobles began to rejoice that a good economy like the Southern Autonomous Region was coming. For one thing, I thought I'd shut up and go home.

"One thing I'd like to ask you, do you think that dungeon, like the South, can moisturize the economy of the Wang Du?

And I heard that Master Zain felt cold somewhere.

"On a personal note, I was wondering if that was unlikely. Rather, it seems that the expenses may be more scurvy"

The dungeon I discovered in the south, I don't know if it was because the mountain was dungeoned or because it was originally a mine, but I found a lot of ore worth saying silver to Demon Iron, Mithril, Iron and Copper. Moreover, the Viscount family was able to manage the dungeon at an early stage, as the location discovered was the one managed by the Southern Viscount family. For this reason, the outflow of resources was stopped, so the interests of the dungeon went round into the Viscount family, and the influence moistened the south with a good economy centered on Nanao. Besides, Hannah sealed off the bottom from the five levels of the dungeon, and imposed restrictions on the taking up of resources in the dungeon by adventurers, so the South can expect a long term positive economy in the future. Incidentally, it opened up to four tiers because it brought in new adventurers because of the less dangerous dungeons and had the purpose of creating a stream of people in the south. It should also be noted that by imposing restrictions on the taking of resources, veteran adventurers will have a tasteless dungeon, and if they take resources out without permission, they will be tried as criminals. Finally, the adventurer is charged an admission fee before entering the dungeon, but courses such as how to do the mining and precautions within the dungeon are held for that matter, so that he can actually get some of what he has mined.

Regarding the blockade of the dungeon, a writ was delivered by the royal family questioning its meaning (questioning independence and the coup d 'état), but Hannah returned that the place where the dungeon was located was land directly controlled by the Viscount family, to protect the seclusion and the surrounding environment, and because of the small size of the dungeon, there was a risk that resources would be exhausted as soon as it was completely liberated. Although Hannah's claim was admitted because there was nothing particularly strange about the logic, and even more waves of good economy had reached Wang Du, some nobles did not find the situation as interesting as winning one of the Southern Viscounts. Most of those who are making noise on this occasion are aristocrats who don't find the Viscount family interesting like that.

"The big difference between the new dungeons in the south and Seigen is the difference in the degree of danger. Dungeons in the south are shallow and less dangerous, so even beginners can bring back some resources, but only 'Dawn Sword' and Grandpa can go to Seigen's new dungeon at present. Even if there are any useful resources, there are limits to bringing them back."

So if you put it this way,

"Then I wish one of you could take us!

from some nobles, could easily be expected to return in this way...... but

"Are you serious about that? If you try to do it by order, the worst country will die."

Like I said, I could also think of words to return in advance.

The bottom tier of a large dungeon like Seigen is not like being able to go if you pile up gold, and above all it is an irreplaceable asset for the adventurer. That's why Jin and the others took me to the bottom of the line, which is unbelievable. I know that much and they're going to say that you (Tenma) were doing whatever you wanted... but that's part of the reward (which I'm assuming), and I'm deciding the next time I go to the bottom is when I dive on my own. That was a kind of bonus time...... and I convinced the Jins later that it should be critical safe.

Well, aside from me, the aristocracy's use of power to dive into the bottom line means that nobility can also take away the fortunes of the adventurers, and if that becomes the bottom line of the country's largest (Seigen) dungeon, it is possible that many adventurers will no longer follow the kingdom in the future. If that happens, I will not cooperate with the Kings as I have done before... maybe. At least nobles other than the nobles I know would treat them as enemies.

Maybe an adventurer of the same mind as me will leave the country, and if it flows to the Empire, it will lead to a loss of national power. At the Houst Border House, the management of the Border House was dangerously inclined because a large number of adventurers left the Border House because of the Kukri Village incident. It is exaggerated that the country dies, but if the adventurer becomes non-cooperative, there is a good chance that the power of the nation will be reduced, and there may be no chance that it will perish in the wake of the invasion around the empire that sees its decline in power.

Most importantly, all of them are my own imagination... but my statement, which is actually the cause (part of, or representative of) the downturn in the Borderlands, seemed quite convincing, and was largely quiet during the sight that was getting noisy. Well, it must have been the most quiet cause for the royalty who understood the possibilities I was talking about, the royalty who said Dear King or Caesar, and the superior nobility who said Marquis Sammons to the Duke of Sanga, to have found the nobility who was making a scene.

"Sure, you have that fear. Until now, the royal family has placed no restrictions on the dungeons of Seigen. That's because when Seigen's dungeon was discovered, he didn't expect the dungeon to dominate because of its size. That's why he placed more importance on bringing many adventurers together to make them drop money than on losses from resource spills. Yet now it will only be a bad idea to impose restrictions and take away rights from adventurers because a new dungeon has been discovered"

To the words of Lord Zayn, the nobles who had been making noise until then became adults.

"But on the contrary, if you dominate the Seigen dungeon, the royal family won't be able to complain if you get resources from that new dungeon."

The royal family won't shut up either if they use the power of the aristocracy to dominate the dungeon and take the resources out of the new dungeon as they are, but I guess if we pinch third parties like adventurers in the meantime, the royal family is going to say they can't speak. However,

"It would be nice if we could have enough power to attack you or all those adventurers..."

It would be if we could reach the lowest level, as Zain said, whining in such a voice that the bothered nobles could not hear us. The Dawn Sword, the attacker of the dungeon, is connected to the royal family through me, and me and my grandfather, who can also go to the bottom, are royalists who are directly connected to the royal family. At present, there is no way for any other nobleman to go to the lowest level. And before any other nobleman gets a ticket to the bottom, I'll reach the bottom on my own, and when I do, I'm confident I'll have general information on the new dungeon before anyone else gets there.

"Your Majesty, I was wondering if it was time to lower Lord Tenma... that's right, he would also be tired of forcible armies from discovering the dungeon to the King's Capital"

"You're right. Tenma, thank you for this time." The Sword of Dawn, "they follow and take rewards. You may step back."

"Ha!"

I finally got clearance to leave, so I just left while I was watching.

"Dear Tenma, this way, please. Maria's waiting."

Aina, who had kept the door open, was going to take me to Maria.

"Ah! Mr. Tenma, it's been a while... where am I being taken?

On my way to Maria's, I found a handsome man who was going to be my favorite. So I grabbed my arm so I wouldn't run away and decided to take him forcefully. And I realized something I didn't like. It's

"Teeda... Soon, you've grown up..."

to being lined up in height...... no, maybe they pulled it out. Until a year ago, he said there was still enough difference to tell clearly...

"Your brother is being taken! Finally, sexual harassment of Amy is a problem...... it's a lie, sorry"

Shocked by Tida's growth, Luna showed up with no sign of growth at all, teasing Tida, and fleeing behind Aina apologizing before she got angry. It was a somewhat reassuring sight.

"So, Mr. Tenma, where are you headed?

"Maria called me a little. I found Tida along the way, so I thought I'd take her."

When Maria's name came out, Tida tried to walk out in the same direction, even though she said, "It's not for a reason," but Luna looked like she was in a hurry for a moment, turning her heels back and trying to escape. But...

"Luna, I asked Mr. Tenma out because of you, and should we go say hello? Aina, take Luna to your aunt. Don't let them get away with it."

Teeda caught Luna in a quick move and ordered Aina not to let her get away with it by stabbing her nail before taking her to Maria's.

"Dear Maria, I've brought you Tenma and Tida, and Luna"

"And Tida and Luna? In the meantime, come in."

Maria seemed surprised that Tida and Luna were together, but gave her permission to enter immediately.

"Sorry to bother you, Maria."

"I'm sorry you called me in, Tenma. Sit there. And Tida and Luna."

Me and Tida sat in the recommended seat, but Luna sat one empty. When Maria saw how it was, she slapped Aina in the ear and made her head somewhere.

Then for a while, Maria went on to talk absurdly. The content was what I said about the king's failure, Lyle's night out, Ernest's suspicion of dementia, which was interesting to hear, but it was all about not knowing why I was called.

I felt like I wasn't called in for these stories, so I was just thinking it was time to ask you about the subject.

"Looks like you're here. Come in."

The knock sounded, and Aina came in. And the other one,

"Throw out your studies and wonder what you were doing, Luna?

Master Isabella stood. I thought there was something out of Luna's behavioral suspicion... but it always passed and I wasn't surprised.

Luna then lined up various excuses, but all of them were disputed by Master Isabella and taken in disillusionment.

"Now you're going to be quiet. Well, that's why I called Tenma here... but before I do, that story hasn't taught Tida anything, but is it okay if I tell her?

I think the story you haven't told Tida is probably about Primera. I met Tida and Luna after I got engaged to Primera, but I guess it was because I wasn't informed that we didn't talk about the engagement at that time.

"I think Teeda would be fine. However, Luna..."

"Absolutely, I'll leak it somewhere. Even if you don't intend to do so in person, listen to the polarity… Tida, because the story you're about to teach is enough to say it's an important secret for the royal family. If you can't, get out of this room now."

Teeda, who looked surprised by Maria's sword screen, immediately sat back in her chair and took a listening stance. Maria nodded satisfied to see how it was,

"Teeda, Tenma was engaged to Primera, the three Duchess of Sanga, about the other day. This story must be kept secret until a party hosted by the Duke of the New Year. If anything were to be divulged by those who know the story in the royal family, it would undermine trust from the Duke of Sanga and the Ootri family. You got it."

"Yes!

Tida snorted at Maria's words, marveling at my engagement. Now in the royal family, Luna is the only one who doesn't know about my engagement... but I decided to ask her for once.

"Yeah, Luna's the only one I don't know...... how was Lyle?

Maria seemed to no longer know what was going on with Master Lyle along the way and sent Aina to get her. If I didn't know by now, I would say that Master Lyle is treated the same way as Luna.

"Mother... that's what they're asking me."

Lady Lyle, who was brought to Aina, had her eyes swimming when she came into the room, but when she asked what was keeping her secret about me, she calmed down, and Maria was earing at her and getting the right answer.

"Well, that's exactly what I'm teaching you, isn't it? I'm sorry, Lyle. You can go back. And I don't know what you're hiding, but don't worry me too much... huh?

Master Lyle smiled at Maria and left the room with a bitter smile.

"So, Mr. Tenma. Why did you suddenly get engaged?

Confirming that the door had completely gone, Tida had been surprised to hear how it had gone to get engaged. I've had a few explanations, but it's not a hassle if you think I've got more allies. Yes, if you think I'm on your side to contain Luna.

"Well, given Mr. Tenma's friendship with the House of the Duke of Sanga, it's no surprise that it feels sudden. Congratulations."

Teeda didn't say anything because she thought she shouldn't ask any more. Instead,

"So what did the new dungeon look like!

I don't hesitate to ask the dungeon. Master Maria also seemed to want to hear about the dungeon and was a little frowned upon by Tida's high tension, but kept quiet without saying anything.

"You didn't find a vast amount of resources, like all the nobles expected. At least near the lower level where Hydra was and the entrance to the new dungeon."

I went to tell her what I thought of the dungeon so that she could report it to Maria rather than let Tida hear it. Dear Maria, although she had many questions about the resources she said at the outset, Tida was only asking questions about skeletons and the golem of rot.

"It's a dungeon at the bottom, but it doesn't really fall to say it's just a weak demon."

"Well, even if I say I'm weak, if Tida tries, I'll pack it near the entrance. No matter how weak you say it is, it's scary to say it's a group that doesn't fear death. If those enemies appear or are likely to appear, or if we feel that this is a disadvantage to us, we must also act with a view to withdrawing immediately. Tida, in particular, is the man in command, right?

"Right, I'll be careful. By the way, how do I fight when I encounter a situation where I can't retreat?

I don't mind not being weird, but it's still just Luna's brother and he seems to be losing hard. I've only had those experiences twice as far as I can remember, so if you're likely to be helpful... I answered with an example in Kukri Village. By the way, the other was fighting Rich, and that's when we had a magical way to push it off, so there's nowhere for Tida to refer.

"I mean, build an impromptu defensive wall or attack from out of reach of your opponent...... it's simple, but it's hard"

"Well, if you can do that, instead of skeletons and rotten golems, you can fight against more superficial demons. Other than that, we have to train them to play their part and sometimes move ad hoc."

If we were to have a party between students, there would be top-notch students at Teeda's, even in the school year, starting with Amy, but they wouldn't have to go through it while they were in school because the school couldn't have let them do such a dangerous thing.

"Dear Maria, it's time for you to be free. I think Jin and the others are waiting."

"Right. I'm sorry I held you back for so long after the report. Eina, please send me a tenma. Enjoy your holiday as you go."

Copy that, sir.

Maria said to enjoy the holidays, but Eina's reply was stiff. Well, I'm waiting for Aina after this because she's a mentor in the name of a holiday. Jeanne and Aura's...

"Hih! Dear Tenma, why did you bring me here! Oh, oh, hey, sister!

Returning to the mansion with Aina, Aura, who came to pick her up, saw Aina and screamed. Seeing it, Aina sighed and pulled Aura to the dining room.

"Ooh, Tenma. I'm sorry I left you in trouble."

When Aina was followed into the dining room, there was a banquet there. Maybe you're going to celebrate the discovery of a new dungeon.

The banquet was attended not only by grandfathers and jins, but also by Amur and Leni. And

"Sorry to disturb you"

Three idiots were also in Primera. The three fools eat and drink as usual, but Primera feels like she said how it would be to make a scene without me, and she doesn't seem to enjoy it very much.

"My grandfather must have given me permission, and I don't care. Those guys are the usual thing, and by showing them something unrelenting, it means letting them know that I'm the center and cordial of the next generation of royalty... maybe."

I don't know about Lion, but Albert and Cain should be making that noise with a good understanding. Well, still, some of them won't pin, but they'll understand if my engagement with Primera is announced, even if they don't want to. When that happens, that look of the three idiots will say until the engagement announcement...... those three will make a scene on their own, even if they come and do oh and visit after the engagement announcement.

"Primera, me, I'm going to be a little busy in the future, and I might even be in a rush to announce my engagement. Of course, it doesn't mean we won't see each other at all, and I don't mean to leave it to you to announce the engagement, but I think it's gonna be pretty annoying."

In the next four months, we will be producing golems to dominate the dungeons. Preparation for the engagement announcement should almost say to Primera... or be in a round-throat state at the Duke of Sanga's house.

"I understand about that, and I can't say anything about it... because I think maybe mine will be a round throw at the Duke's house too..."

Apparently, the Duke of Sanga is straining himself now, and he has nothing in particular to do as a primera. Besides, Primera and I were planning to get married less than a year after our engagement, so we finished up to function as a Knights liaison team by then, and we were pretty busy because we had to take over even more.

"Me too, it looks like Maria is more uptight than me or my grandpa... I told Tida today about my engagement and she decided to keep it a secret from Luna"

"Is it a secret to Master Luna... Sure, it's going to slip your mouth, but I don't think it's because of the information leaked, and the other nobles are going to stick your mouth in it, though?

I agree with you, but I guess that's all you want to pay close attention to.

"I'm sorry about Luna, but it's Maria's decision, so there's nothing I can do."

I, Primera and, on the contrary, even the Duke of Sanga would not be able to put it out on the decision of the Royal Highest Power. If it doesn't make a big difference in results, whether you put it out or not, it would be fortunate to choose one that doesn't piss off Maria.

"I'll take a bath first, Albert and the others... but don't hesitate to enjoy the banquet"

I broke up with Primera and enjoyed the bath quietly by myself...... I was planning to

"See, you don't even drink tenma!

"I'm bringing the knobs!

Two drunkards (Grandpa and Jin) broke in early after taking a bath, followed by the rest of the men in a sneaky fashion. On each arm, with tons of booze and knobs.

"Did the banquet venue just move into the bathroom..."

You should watch out for Albert and Cain because the liquor serving in the bathroom isn't good for you, but you don't have the face to die so easily. And old people, just in case.

"Sora, another drink"

"Albert, it's time to stop. Look, instead of booze, drink water, water."

Albert, who turned red in his face, was about to have another drink, so he let him grip a glass with water instead. Albert himself, who understood it was time to limit himself, received the water and began drinking it with great care.

"Try this, you're being funny and bulky"

This is how the group split up as everyone's drunkenness turned to how I said me and Albert, Cain and Garratt, Grandpa and Jin and Lion. Me and Albert felt like we said we were leftovers rather than brother-in-law, and my grandfathers felt like we said we were close to thinking, but Cain and Garratt were surprised. Plus, it's pretty intentional. I was wondering what kind of story you were getting excited about, so I came a little closer and cleared my ears.

"So when you drain blood, it's basic to half-kill it and hang it upside down. If your heart isn't moving, you're bleeding badly."

"When you can't lift it?

"At that time, dig a hole right next to the prey and flush it there. If you can't dig a hole, you're drooling ready to dump the bottom half. Well, it feels more like it's half done than it all stinks."

"Can it also be used by humans?

"If the basic structure is the same creature, it's good to apply a variety of things. Well, some guys can't come back unless they keep it to their knowledge alone, so be careful."

And so on, he talked about the smell of blood. Looks like Cain's curiosity meshed well with Garratt's special knowledge.

"I think I'm going to feel bad, should I go up now"

I decided to take Albert out of the bath because Cain and Garratt's bloody stinking story was going to make me sick.

Cain and Garratt, realizing that me and Albert had left the bath, took the bath up to come after us but...

"Well, I didn't miss where Hydra was weak, so I cut off her neck all the time!

"In my time, you magically cut it off, magically crushed it, and magically burned it down!

"That sounds amazing! Me, too, I'd like to try to tail Hydra for once!

The brain muscle group, named the sports club system, was thriving unaware of us. If you're sure of my memory,

"Tenma, isn't the story looping?

I think Cain was right, I heard the same story about three or four times.

"Sounds like you've been doing this for a long time. Sounds like you should force him out."

Those three seem pretty drunk compared to us, so I decided to take them out, even forcefully.

I decided to bring in a wooden golem where I would let my grandfather, Garratt, Jin and Albert and Cain take charge of Lion... but just as I tried to force a naked man out, something I didn't want to touch would definitely hit my body and cause mental damage, so I was letting him clean the bathroom and other things to carry the three of them. We feel like we're going to be auxiliary to the golem.

"Tenma, will you leave the Lions alone?

"I've taken the liquor away, and I've given him a lot of water, so I think he'll be fine. Just in case the golems are cleaning the bath and draining the hot water, and I'm ordering them to come in and kick us out, so we should have to come back to the dining room."

We got our grandfathers out of the bath, got them to wear clothes, got them to drink water, and then left them. I've also confiscated my grandfather's magic bag, so if he wants to drink, he should come back to the dining room. If you don't come back, you can go see how it goes then.

If you leave the three of us like that and come back to the dining room,

"This way, you smell amazing"

The smell of sweetness greeted us. Well, like the bathroom, I think it's many times healthier than the smell of liquor.
