Book 10: Chapter 39: Hero’s First Dungeon Attempt
Volume 10 Chapter 39
The following day after Akari sold her items to Tina, she teleported to a certain dungeon found in Vestier, the kingdom of the beastkin.
Her goal was
Alright, Tet. Lets get a lot of gems! Ill leave the follow-up to you!
Yup. Leave it to me!
A rumor had spread among the adventurers recently. It was said that this particular Dungeon Ruins was filled with many treasure chests containing jewels and other such treasures.
When Akari got wind of that, she decided to come here to get the gems she needed for making accessories, the would-be source of their funds.
She already had a 200 million to her name, but she thought that if she were to collect the weapon and armor needed to slay the Demon King, she would be better off having more money.
Akari was already powerful enough to slay the generations of Demon King that existed before with a single punch even without any sort of weapon. However, she still had this mistaken belief that she was just an ordinary human, and that she needed to be well-prepared or else she wouldnt win against the Demon King.
The last light novel she read in her previous life was titled Transmigrated to be the Weakest Hero, Worked Out from Level 1 to 99 Before My Adventure Began that was another factor that caused Akari to act so cautiously right from the bat.
Akari was aware that recovery and resuscitation items existed in this world, but she couldnt revive herself, and she didnt have any companion in her journey other than Tet.
Thus, she believed that she didnt have any choice but to be well-prepared.
Her arsenal should contain articles that would prevent her from receiving any damage no matter what sort of attack she got. She must also possess articles that would revive her in case she did die.
Those were Akaris thoughts.
Hi, little girl. Are you perhaps planning to challenge this dungeon?
An auntie selling revival items that could only be used inside the dungeon called out to Akari.
ErYes, thats what I want to do. I want the jewels that we supposedly can take from the treasure boxes.
Alone?
No, Im going with this little kid!
Meow!
Tet enthusiastically waved her paws from Akaris arms.
She was pretending to be the girls familiar so it wouldnt be a big deal even if it was discovered that she could speak. However, Tet refrained from speaking in public out of consideration to Akari, since she seemed to have a hard time explaining it every time.
...Haah. Okay, Im telling you this for your own good. Dont do this dungeon.
The armor was made by one of the most skilled dwarves in this world, and it had been on display at the H&T's flagship store.
Anyone who run a tool shop would have encountered this armor. That was just how famous it was.
Of course, it was only appearance-wise.
Akaris clothes were definitely of a higher caliber.
M-MissyAre you perhaps an adventurer who already made a name for herself?
ErA-Actually, youre right.
Akari thought that since she was a hero, she was probably someone akin to a strong adventurer, so that was her answer.
Really? Then I might have been too meddlesome.
No, thank you so much for worrying about me!
Meow!
Well, its a dungeon full of surprises even for the strong adventurers. You never know what will happen. Ill give you this Talisman of Revival as sorry for being rude.
The auntie handed the talisman to Akari.
This talisman would revive her even if she died, as long as she was within the dungeon.
It was an item created by Halt, the Dungeon Master. Halt employed this auntie to sell this talisman in the market in front of the dungeon.
Each piece of talisman cost 50,000 spina.
It was a steep price for rookie adventurers, but almost all adventurers still purchased them with the belief that it was nothing compared to the worth of their lives.
Moreover, as long as they were careful and stayed within the bounds of safety, they could easily earn 50 thousand spina in no time at all.
Is this really alright?
Yeah. My boss said I can give it for free to adventurers Ive taken a liking to. Oh, please keep it a secret from the other adventurers, of course. Besides, Im going to charge you next time.
I understand. Thank you very much.
Akari put the talisman inside her bag, then she entered the dungeon.
In order to obtain the equipment, earn money, get gemstones, and equipped with armor that was the strongest possible in this world
In short, just for the sake of wasting time, Akari was about to attempt challenging the Dungeon Ruins.
