Although I Am Only Level 1, but with This Unique Skill, I Am the Strongest

Before entering Nihonium in the morning, I checked my status on the Now board in the dungeon table.

I haven't leveled up and I'm using all the dropped seeds to increase my abilities, so I'm very unbalanced and still have a long way to go (,) but I'm confident that if I continue to steadily dive down to the ninth floor of Nihonium's basement, I'll be all S.

So even though it's not balanced right now, I'm rather looking forward to seeing it grow.

Speaking of which, I remembered that the monsters that join you in the game have an incredibly low level of cleverness that you can't manipulate even at the normal limit, and you need to use items to improve that level to make them useless.

I'm right in line with that, I thought to myself.

There were two pages of abilities, and I checked the second page as well.

2/2 --- 2/2 ---

Plants S

Animals S

Minerals S

Magic S

Characteristic S

--------- ...

Stats that affect item drops.

This one was an S from the beginning and hadn't changed.

After confirming my abilities, I got my mind back on track and dove into the dungeon.

First of all, we were on the second basement level.

Our goal was to find the seeds of speed on the third floor, but we needed to procure flaming bullets from the second floor in order to advance to the third floor efficiently. So we'll have to do this first.

Use the collection box to headshot every single zombie you encounter and collect seeds in the box.

By the way, the undetectable monsters in Nifonium often surprise me, but I didn't take any damage today.

I think it's a benefit of my increased speed to C. Even if the wall in front of me collapses and I'm attacked, I can instantly retreat to a safe zone and calmly aim at the zombie's head.

Again, I was able to experience the increased ability in a real battle.

Thus, I collected the flame bombs and went to the basement three floors to work and take down the mammy where the flames were weak.

In the morning, my speed went from a C to a B.

I didn't feel like working much in the afternoon.

The weather was kind of nice and the city was busy, so I decided to take it easy and make it a day of not working.

So I took down a bad slime and some bamboo shoots on the fourth underground floor of Tellurium, and a watermelon in the Pandora box after taking out a hebislime on the fifth underground floor.

I made minimal deliveries to the people I'm in contact with, and I'm done for the day.

I thought.

'Ryota-san, you've gone to the fifth underground floor of Telluride, right?

Yeah?

I'm in the middle of delivering the bamboo shoots and getting the amount confirmed.

Elsa asked timidly.

'I'm going?'

'What about the other dungeons?How far down do you want to dive?

What else?Tellurium is on the fifth floor underground, Nihonium is on the third floor, Silicon is on the third floor with human help, and Arsenic is on the first floor with human help - oh, you went to the tenth floor once with human help.

'I see. ......'

What's going on?

Then you don't have your license yet, do you?

License?

I looked back at Elsa, wondering what she was talking about.

'It's the first time I've heard that word since I came to this world.

'You don't know?In Cyclo, you have to have a license after the sixth floor below the dungeon.

Like a permit?Do we have to have that?

'Yes. It's the same for all dungeons around the world, but the danger level of dungeons increases every five floors. That's why cities that have dungeons have policies in place to deal with them. Ciclo keeps it simple, we have a permission system for every fifth floor.

What's the rest of the city doing?

'You can't buy stuff from people who didn't have a permit, or if you're injured in an area that doesn't have a permit, your medical bills triple the normal cost, and so on.

'I see. You can get in there, just in case.

There's a lot of interesting things about it.

It's a world where the monsters in the dungeon drop all the supplies, so there are a lot of interesting rules related to that.

Reminds me of the drop ability I checked in the morning.

The drop is all S, and I'd like to visit other cities sooner rather than just the agricultural city of Cyclo.

'So ...... please?'

Yeah?

I was thinking about the other city when Elsa pulled me back.

She timidly cut her off, a little apologetically.

'If you're just Lyota, I'd like you to get your license. I mean, if there are a lot of regulars who have a license, the restaurant ranks higher.

Oh, I see.

It's a somewhat understandable story.

License is by its nature a parameter of some degree of strength.

The adventurer doesn't belong, but it's a trading partner that looks like it belongs from the outside.

The more licensed adventurers there are, the better looking they are.

I'm sure you'll be able to find the right one.

I'm sorry for asking you to do this.

I'm indebted to Elsa and the shop.

Okay, just tell me where to go and what to do.

As soon as I understood what was being said, I answered with a resounding yes.

Using the map Elsa had given me, I arrived at the Ciclo Town Hall.

I walked into the magnificent building with my vegetables and went down to the basement, just as I had been taught.

It was a huge space.

It reminded me of a shooting range I used to go to in Hawaii.

There was one counter with a middle-aged man sitting at it.

The man spoke to me in a languid manner.

...... what is it about?

Well, I'm here to get my license to go into the basement six floors.

What are your ...... achievements?

I make regular deliveries of watermelons from the Tellurium's basement five floors.

In the way Elsa had taught me to say it, the man still looked languid, but he got up and started to move.

'I'll do the ...... test,'

A test?

It was tellurian: "You were a tellurian: ...... If we can defeat the monsters below the fifth floor here, we'll pass.

Simple.

...... The most important thing is that you have the ability to take it down consistently.

Yes.

Diving into dungeons in this world is about producing drops from monsters, or supplies.

It's not a game where the goal is to dig in and beat the bosses on the first floor, but to dig in every day and bring back stuff consistently.

So it's simple-is-best, as long as you have the ability to defeat monsters consistently, it's natural to say that there's no problem.

''All right, we just have to go to the sixth floor below Tellurium for now, right?

...... No, we'll do it here.

What?

While I was puzzled, the man got ready to go.

He placed one melon in the middle of the vast space.

...... I had some idea what he was going to do.

I waited for a while, away from the melon, and then the man came back.

The melon turned into a haggler, and then turned back into a monster.

It's a metallic-colored slime.

"Metal slime ......?

It's ...... steel slime, the blades are so hard that they don't basically work.

I guess I'll just have to take this one down.

...... Yes.

Okay.

I left the man and moved forward.

Steel slime is bouncing around.

It doesn't seem to have any hostile intentions, even though it noticed us, it didn't attack us.

I don't know why, but I tried hitting it first.

The steel slime blows away - but it's not damaging and it's pinging.

That's hard, even with a force S, it does little damage?

Well, I knew the moment I called it "metal slime".

Well, now I'm going to do it for real.

I'm going to take out my gun, and put two bullets in it.

You fire a barrage of rounds at a steel slime that's about to bounce.

I hit him in time.

A magic circle goes off, a big blaze of fire, then freezes.

I walked up slowly and gave it a nudge.

Palin.

The steel slime shattered.

By the way, I dropped the bullet, but quickly recovered it without the man seeing it.

'...... What was that?'

The man was surprised, though he still seemed languid as ever.

'Fatigue destruction. It's brittle when you warm it up or cool it down in a short time. Hard stuff like that.

...... You know what's great about it,

The man was extremely impressed.

It's a rather normal thing, but isn't it well known over here?

Oh, well.

More importantly, I got my license for all the dungeons in Ciclo, from the sixth to the tenth floor, without incident.

After I left the town hall, I thought to myself.

Freezer bullets, flaming bullets, fatigue destruction.

I wish I had another gun, he thought.
