[Main scenario quest conditions have been met.]
[CHAPTER 2: Protect the commercial city of Thalassa.]
[Time remaining until invasion begins: 167 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds]
When the golden window appeared, numerous players were once again in an uproar.
There were opinions that someone might monopolize it again this time, but it was considered impossible due to the eyewitness accounts of many players.
A video of an army so large it couldn't be estimated by the naked eye marching towards Thalassa.
The news spread quickly, and players began to gather in Thalassa.
[Commercial City of Thalassa]
In this game without an auction house, it's a place where numerous items and information gather.
Losing the commercial city would be a huge loss for players.
The Frey Guild also took action to prepare for the scenario quest, and I headed to the hunting grounds to test my newly acquired weapon.
Until now, I had just kept it in storage because I didn't have a chance to use it while riding the bear taxi.
Where should I go? As I was pondering, a place came to mind.
A famous dungeon in Thalassa village.
[Dungeon of Greed]
A dungeon where you can obtain rare items and large amounts of experience.
As I walked to the dungeon entrance near the village, two soldiers were guarding the entrance.
I approached and handed over my pass, and they looked at me with worried eyes.
"Miss, are you really going in?"
"Yes!"
"If it's dangerous, run away immediately."
Passing by the soldiers and entering the dungeon, a blue window popped up.
[You have entered the Dungeon of Greed.]
May blessings be upon you, traveler.
As I went down the stairs leading underground, I encountered a wild rabbit on the first floor.
But it looks a bit delinquent?
[Delinquent Rabbit]
A rabbit biting a branch in a delinquent manner.
I took out the «Divine Dragon's Bell» and shook it once.
'Ding-a-ling~ Ding-a-ling~'
It dropped the branch it was biting and approached me, acting cute?
"Kyung kyung!"
Numerous delinquent rabbits that were hiding in the darkness approached and acted cute, and I couldn't just ignore them.
How can I resist this!?
"You're too cute!"
This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com
"Kyung kyung!"I took out a magic stone from my inventory and handed it over, and they happily accepted and ate it, and even their eating appearance is cute.
The way they eat magic stones is similar to the rabbits in Cradle Village.
I wonder if those kids are doing well? I hope they're exercising in moderation.
After spending time with the delinquent rabbits, I said goodbye and headed to the next floor.
Going down to the second floor, delinquent slimes were waiting.

After passing through slimes, goblins, orcs, warbears, and even griffins, I met delinquent monsters and greeted them, distributing magic stones. We became friends, so I couldn't hunt them.
They approach me and act cute whenever they hear the bell sound, what kind of effect does it have?
«Divine Dragon's Bell»
A bell once used by a shrine maiden who served the Divine Dragon.
There's no special ability or anything?
Following the secret stairs the griffin showed me, I saw a huge iron door.
Opening the door and going inside, there was a wide open space.
I hear an unfamiliar voice in the open space.
"Welcome."
"Where are you?"
"Here."
Something appeared with the wind.
It had horns on its head and had a human form, but there were no eyes on its face.
An egg ghost...?
"You've come quite far, human. My name is Baron Amon Tennis."
He introduces himself as a nobleman of the demon realm with the title of baron.
If the other party introduced themselves, it would be polite for me to introduce myself too, right?
"Hello. My name is Yuna."
"Well then, shall we begin? The festival of slaughter!"
Shouting loudly, a huge sphere gathered above the demon's head and flew towards me, but I didn't take any damage.
[The effect of the title: Duke of the Demon Realm is activated.]
Ignores attacks from demons with lower titles than oneself.
The demon looks at me with a bewildered face.
Another message popped up.
[The effect of the title: Duke of the Demon Realm is activated.]
Requesting dispatch of an executioner.
The entire open space vibrates and space begins to open.
A skeleton appeared, waving a robe and holding a huge scythe.
The executioner who revealed himself.
"Demon Realm Executioner. I greet Duke Yuna."
The demon is shocked by those words.
"W-why is an executioner here!? No, more importantly, Duke!?"
The executioner opens his mouth, looking at the demon who is backing away in shock.
"According to the laws of the demon realm, Baron Amon Tennis, who committed insubordination, is stripped of his title and executed."
"I-I didn't know! I didn't know!"
With those final words, the demon was cut by the huge scythe and returned to nothingness, turning into dirt.
The executioner bows to me and disappears beyond space.
The title effect is good.
Something shiny had fallen on the spot that turned to dirt.
«Golden Key»
Can open the door to the reward room.
Behind where the demon disappeared, a door appeared and began to open with an eerie sound.
Entering that door, I climbed stairs designed to go up instead of down, and saw three doors shining golden.
As I approached, names were displayed.
[Room of Greed]
[Room of Wisdom]
[Room of Miserliness]
"Yong-yong, which one should we enter?"
"Kyuung!"
"The middle one?"
The moment I inserted the key I got earlier and turned it to enter the Room of Wisdom.
With a bright light, I saw a library inside with numerous books on the shelves.
[You have entered the Room of Wisdom. Select the skill book you want to acquire a skill.]
Admiring the grand size of the library, I looked around at the books and saw various skills.
«Black Hole»
Creates a gravity field that returns everything within range to nothingness.
«Inferno»
Creates a huge pillar of fire that burns everything.
«Get That Bastard!»
Summons chase after the target set as the mark.
«Moon Shadow»
Summons the moon to increase the stats of summons.
"This one seems good, right?"
"Kyuung!"
[You have used a skill book.]
You have acquired the Active Skill: Moon Shadow.
«Moon Shadow»
Summons the moon to increase the stats of summons.
Mana used: 1,000
Duration: 8 hours
Cooldown: 24 hours
It's a good skill, but there's one fact I overlooked.
The Ring of Sealing makes it impossible to use mana.
I didn't calculate this?
With a gloomy heart, I opened the newly appeared door and went outside, and was transported to the dungeon entrance.
After looking at the sunset, I started walking to return to the village.
To return to the guild hideout.
I heard that among the guild benefits, I could use one of the spare rooms as my room without having to pay for accommodation.
Opening the door and entering, the stalker, no, Sasha unni welcomed me.
"Our youngest is back!?"
"I'm back."
Sasha unni, who calls me the youngest and takes care of me.
After finishing dinner and going to my room, I lay down on the bed and took out one more magic stone for Yong-yong, who happily ate it.
"Yong-yong, then I'll see you tomorrow."
"Kyuung!"

Returning to the real world, I took off the gear, went to the bathroom, and went down to the kitchen on the first floor where there was a lunchbox sent by Rea unni.
Since the day she moved next door, she either eats dinner with me or prepares a lunchbox on busy days.
Opening the lunchbox, I saw various meats, vegetables, and a heart made of beans.
"I don't like beans..."
After finishing the meal, I contacted Rea unni to thank her, then went to my room and checked the bulletin board, which was a mess.
[Why is the difficulty of the Dungeon of Greed like this!?]
Help!! The delinquent rabbit caught me and is doing a deadlift!?
[Comments]
- What's with this guy now?
- What did it do? It did what?
- [Author] Ahh! Help me! Ahh! It's caught me and ahh!
[Is it true that the Dungeon of Greed has changed to be like Cradle Village?]
The rabbits have changed as if they could easily handle 3 vs 500, and the slime noona appears here too. I can't take questions because I have to go see noona.
[Comments]
- Is this also related to the main chapter changes?
- [Author] Noonaaaa!!
- You crazy bastard lol
[Have you been above the 3rd floor? The goblins come charging while shouting Valhalla lol]
I almost died of fear lol
[Comments]
- For Valhalla!!!
- For Valhalla!!!
- [Author] Stop it, you crazy bastards lol
- Valhalla!!!!!!
They say the difficulty of the dungeon I visited has increased. But thinking differently, haven't I saved the monsters that have been suffering all this time?
H-honestly speaking, isn't it the players who enter the monster areas and pick fights first?
Traveling with Yong-yong, giving hope to monsters suffering from players, and further waving the red flag.
I let my imagination run wild, but it's...
"Better than I thought!?"
