63 Episode 17 Ready to Challenge Dungeon




 Frapara is a city built on top of a dungeon that exists underground.
 That is why it is called a labyrinth city.
 It has the largest number of adventurer's guilds in Teoriyah, and its prosperity is undoubtedly due to its dungeons, which rival the capital.
 In the dungeons, the magic power floating in the air - the magic element causes demons and treasure chests to appear.

 Although treasure chests contain demon materials, potions, equipment, etc., sometimes the treasure chests themselves are demons, and some traps are set.

 The principle behind the appearance of demons and treasure chests is unknown.
 However, they are an endless resource and many adventurers visit the dungeon every day.

 There are too many unsolved mysteries in dungeons.
 That's why you shouldn't neglect your preparations before you go to the dungeon......

 I don't have much to do when it comes to preparation.
 When you go to a dungeon, you can form a party, but the maximum number of players is 4.
 I've heard that many parties hire a courier to do this.

 The items you won in the dungeon will be carried by the bearer, so the other three can focus on fighting and alerting the others.

 But I have the Item Box skill, so I don't need a courier.
 All I need to do now is invite Kurt to join me, but I don't know where he'll be during the day, so I'll go to the room he's staying in at night.
 We could give ourselves some time to work out until nightfall, but...

I don't know much about dungeons or anything like that, so if you could help me with the preparations and such, that would be very helpful.

 Fea said that, so I nodded and helped Fea prepare.

''Has Fia been in a state of magical depletion lately?''

'What? Why are you asking me that: ......

''No, dungeons are a series of battles with demons, so the more magic the better. I just wanted to know how much magic power you've gained since we first met .

 I don't feel like I had a quota to be in a state of magical power depletion at least once a day, but this was a bit of a stretch .
 I've learned too well that no one normally wants to be in a state of magic depletion.
 There aren't many people who would be willing to become depleted of magic power.
 The amount of magic it increases is tiny, and experiencing it once or twice won't make much of a difference.
 Still, if Fia continues to do this every day, there should be a slight change in her magic power level.

''You've been ...... at least once every two days. ......

 Fear wouldn't make eye contact with me and said.

"Once every two days. You're doing well.

"...... Huh? Huh? Oh, aren't you angry ......?

''It's very hard to be in a state of magical depletion. I do this once every two days. Why would I be angry?

Thank you for ...... . Hmmm, Revell-san is very kind.

Not really.

...... Oh, you know, as a matter of fact, it was once every three days, not once every two days like earlier.

Yeah, ......, why are you giving it a little boost?

"Ahahaha ...... I thought you'd be mad at me, so I just thought I'd go to .......

'Well, that's fine. So, considering it's once every three days, your magic power hasn't increased that much?

'That's right, if you use your skills and stuff without thinking about it, you'll run out of magic pretty quickly.

All right, well, let's go buy some potions first.

'You're buying a potion: ...... Hmmm, I feel like it's a waste of money: ......'

"Don't be needy there. This time we'll have to sneak into the dungeon's 20th level. If it's only the fifth level, but at the twentieth level, it'll be a long term battle, so the current magic power of Fea isn't enough for us, right?

'Yes, but isn't ...... hmmm, aren't potions rather expensive?'

'Depending on the quality of the potions, you could buy about ten Fears at a silver coin apiece and you'd be fine.

It's expensive! It's expensive! I only have about two gold coins right now!

That's not too bad. You're doing your quests and making a lot of money.

'I don't have any room at all! There's no amount of money to be had!


 Huh? It can't be helped.
 I'm the one who asked you to accompany me through the dungeon.
 I went to the Item Box and took out ten potions I made myself that can restore magic.


Here. Take them.

'This is a potion, isn't it! Oh, Revell-san, is it okay if I take this?

"Yeah. This time I'm asking Feer to come along for the ride. That's special.

'Thank you! I love Mr. Revell!

 You're a lazy bastard, aren't you?


 .


 That night, I went to Kurt's room.

"Sorry to come to your room so late,

"Never mind. I mean, it's just that Revel and I are close. Besides, I wanted Revell to see something.

What do you want to see?

So let's get right to it, shall we?


 The magic in Kurt's body travels at great speed.


 A blue-white geometric pattern of magic circle was created at your feet, and then another magic circle appeared on top of it again.

 Many wizards do not need a magic circle to use magic.
 Many wizards don't need a magic circle to use magic because the chanting is packed with elements of magic.
 But Kurt is creating a magic circle.
 What the hell is that supposed to mean?


This is a skill called "casting multiple chants. Revel taught me some ancient magic that helped me acquire it, and I wanted to thank him. I wanted to thank you for that.

 Multiple Chanting... .......
 I think it was in Wisdom, when I looked up the skills related to magical manipulation.
 It allows you to use two types of magic at the same time... it must have been quite difficult.


'Don't worry about thanking me. I'm glad it helped you.

...... utterly, Revell is truly selfless.

Oh, well, I just need to ask you one favor, okay?

Of course I do.

Actually, I was given a B-ranked quest, but it required going to a dungeon. So I was hoping that Kurt could help me out.

No problem.

 It's okay.
 It's pretty reassuring to know that Kurt can help us too.

 We'll have a little chat afterwards, and we'll discuss the details of the quest tomorrow in the guild.
