86. Open gold vein




 Alice's house at night.
 Alice, who was from this village, had a house of her own.
 It's almost the same as the other villagers' houses, simple in construction.

 I came with Eve to stay at Alice's house.

''I'm sorry, I had to do that to get you out of there fast.
...... was very shaky.
I'm really sorry.
"Low levels are outrageous.
I'm sorry.
We don't deserve to live at a lower level.
'You're going to say that much? I mean, don't you go back to your old meaning?
Well, that means I don't deserve to live at all.

 Eve was unusually flustered.
 It was rare for her to have such a rich expression on something other than a carrot.
 She must have been in a really bad way for transforming the dungeon she's still in.

 Alice and I apologized in earnest.

"...... A hundred carrots.
I'll get you an S-grade one when I get back.
So I forgive you.

 I was relieved that Eve had managed to forgive me.

'But I'm glad, we're all saved. It's all thanks to Lyota. Lanana would have been a disaster if it wasn't for Lyota.
It's the most seriously injured woman.

 The villagers we rescued from the dungeon were injured to a greater or lesser extent.
 Most of them were able to be fixed with recovery bullets, but there was one woman whose limbs were on a mangled level and who looked like she was about to die.
 Recovery bullets couldn't heal her, so I was finally able to heal her with full recovery rounds of reinforced bullets.

''It's amazing that you were able to heal that one, Ryota!

 Whether Ryota was amazing or not, I also thought the enhanced bullet was amazing.
 If you can heal an injury that severe, it's as good as having a complete healing spell that can heal any injury as long as you're not dead in the future.
 That's how bad her injuries were, and I was able to completely heal her with the enhanced bullet-masher recovery bullet.

 Inside Alice's house, I was chatting with the villagers, relieved to see that they had been completely rescued.
 We've only been out for a day and I'm already starting to miss Emily's house.
 I'm a little homesick for the bright and warm Emily House, and I can't wait to go home.

'Huh? Speaking of which, Lyota, how did the drop go?
Drop? ...... Come to think of it, I haven't seen it.
I know, I haven't seen it either. We killed a lot of people at the entrance to the dungeon.

 I nodded my head.
 When I put Hone Honehone and Purpur into the dungeon and changed the structure, it wasn't the villagers that were transferred to the entrance, but sometimes those small demons.
 The next time I had to shoot those guys out of the dungeon to get the honehones and pulls in, I had to shoot them out of the dungeon to get rid of them, but come to think of it, there were no drops.

''I guess they don't drop when you beat them from the outside.
'That can't be true, the early freezer bullets were dropping in the opposite direction, or rather, they were completely in the dungeon when we rescued Alan and the others.
Is this a dungeon that doesn't drop?
Like Nifongnium? But I'd still do the drop if I were you.

 I'm a drop-something different from the rest of you.
 I've been able to drop things that other people "would never" drop, like everything else.
 The fact that I didn't drop is a bit unthinkable.

"Did Eve beat the monster inside?
There was no drop.
What is the meaning of--
"Kyah!

 As I picked my jaw and tried to think, I suddenly heard a woman screaming from outside.

 I quickly let go of the door and ran out, running in the direction of where I had heard the screams.

 I reached the entrance to the cave, where the woman was being attacked by a monster under the moonlight.
 The monster was that little demon.
 The little hateful face is still attacking the woman, if you look closely, the woman is already injured.

''This guy!''

 You fire a series of normal bullets to get the monster away from the woman, and you also anticipate the direction he's dodging and place a piercing bullet in the direction he's going.

 It's a good thing that he's a good fit, or else he would have gone for the piercing bullet (、、、、).
 It is a monster with a high intelligence level, and its evasion pattern is different from other monsters.

 It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

 When it was shot, it crashed to the ground and began to cramp.
 I left it there and ran up to the woman and crouched down to check on her condition.

'Are you okay?'
Ouch ...... my arm hurts ......
I'll be fine. I'll be there in a minute.

 He shoots her with a recovery round and a single reinforced round to see how badly she is injured.
 A magic circle unfolds and a healing light surrounds her.
 After the light subsided, her injuries were completely healed.

'Huh? My injury is ......
You okay?
Now you are ...... thank you.

 I nodded and stood up.
 It was good that I judged the degree perfectly.
 The more reinforced bullets you put in, the more effective you can be when firing other bullets, but the more you put in, the fewer bullets you can put in other bullets, the less versatile it becomes.

 It's my recent task to determine the degree of reinforcement needed.

"Ryota!
I'll be fine.
Good: ......
What's going on?
That.

 Alice, who came in late, secretly whispered to me.
 It's the same place where the monster cramped up earlier, but there were bullets on the ground.
 I glanced at the woman who looked up at me with grateful eyes and said to Alice, "Take care of that man.

'Take care of that man.'
Yeah!

 After confirming that Alice had told me to bring the woman, I picked up the spilled bullet.
 The bullet, which I've never seen before, is a drop from that monster, the one that has been haglemonized.

 With that in mind, I pull out a reinforced bullet and shoot it at the ground.
 The magic circle spread out to the spot where it landed, and a crackling electricity ran across the ground.
 An electric bullet, or is it a lightning bullet?

 That's ...... fine.
 This is the one that was dropped by Hagremonos, and by Hagremonos I mean the ones that were left in an unpopular place and turned back into monsters.

 It's true that this place is not popular, the buildings have been swallowed up and the villagers have been traumatized in some way or another, the area around the entrance of the dungeon is not very popular.

 It's a great location for haggling, but was something dropped?

What's going on?
Yves, I just got that little demon haggler. I was wondering what the drop-off was, which would mean it was down around here.
I killed a bunch of rabbits, but I didn't see any drops.
Yeah, I didn't see him.

 I picked my jaw and thought, I should go into the dungeon one more time and check it out.
 Just as I thought, the reflection of the moonlight glistened off Eve's upper tits, visible through her bunny suit.

'This is it!'

 He loomed over Eve and saw it.
 Under the moonlight, a spot of light reflected off of it and shone.

"This is ...... and you may have seen it...

 Boom! And then it hit me in the brain.
 I stepped back and pressed my head down.

 Eve stared at me with her gaze.

"What?
It's a boob job.
'What? Oh, I'm sorry! An "add-on
It's not my place to struggle for free.
I don't have to pay for it!
"200 carrots in a rub.
'I don't know if it's expensive or cheap!

 Eve was Eve.
 And for that matter, I pointed at her chest.

"Isn't that glowing?
'Glowing ......? Is this possible?
Yeah, the money, right?

 Eve dug her fingers into her chest - her cleavage - and scooped it up.
 Reflecting the light, it was gold the size of a grain of sand.

     ☆

 I enter the dungeon.
 The little demon I encountered scowled at me and ran away.

 I chased after it, but there was a pit in the middle of the dungeon, and a sharp blade underneath it greeted the fallen human.
 I quickly shot freezer bullets into the ice, then kicked the ice and jumped out of the pit.

 The little devil, who was doing his impersonation, is shot through with a tracking round.

 And open the pouch you've equipped beforehand.
 It was hard to see in the dungeon, but as expected, there was a grain of gold ...... gold in there.

 The drop in this dungeon was gold dust.
 I'm sure it's gold, but I'm convinced that it's just the right size to be overlooked when you're in a hurry.

 The dungeon was born in a village in the middle of nowhere, and the dungeon drops gold.
 The story travels through the village that day, and it's spread to several (...) nearby towns.

 And then the night dawns--.
