I woke up in the morning at Alice's house, which I had yet to become.
　Sure, it was a poor village and Alice's house was modest, but I missed the warmth of Emily House even more.

'Your body is totally trained, isn't it?

　Muttering this to myself, I look inside the house.
　It's a shack-like house with no furniture and no walls, and I'm sleeping with Alice and Eve.
　Alice is on top of her head like a cat with a whine and a pull-pull, and Eve is chewing on the thin quilt.

'No. Konkonkon ...... eh?　Doesn't fire and ice work?
Carrot, no fucha.

　We were both talking in our sleep, and I thought I was dreaming of something fun, but then I woke up and decided to go make some money in the dungeon.
　While I thought I was having a pleasant dream, I woke up and decided to go to the dungeon to earn some money.
　First, I checked my equipment.
　Two handguns, a variety of bullets.
　I won't be using my pouch for the first dungeon, but since I already know the drops are gold and gold nuggets, I'll put it on.
　And slime tears.
　I hadn't checked the additional performance after I redropped them from Hagremonos, but those little devils are going to trick me in many ways, so I'll put these on as well, just in case.
　Then, after completing the inspection.

　Knock.

　There was a knock on the door.
　I glance over at Alice and Eve, who are still sleeping peacefully.
　I have to get out of there, so I decide to leave.

Okay, who are you?　--

　When I opened the door, there were three girls standing there.
　All of them are village girls, fifteen or sixteen, about the age of a JK in the other world.

It's Satou-sama. I didn't expect Satou-sama to come out of nowhere.
We've got to go, Reece.
Wow. I can't do it. You two, please.

　As soon as the girls saw my face, they hurriedly gave in to each other ...... and began to push each other.
　I was wondering what in the world was going on when the girl in the middle was pushed back by the two of them and decided to cut loose.

''Satou-sama!''
Oh, yeah?
"Thank you for helping us the day before yesterday.
Oh, the girl who got swallowed up in the dungeon.
'Yes!　Master Sato when he saved me...... so cool...I love it!
Oh?

　A voice that I thought was dumb escaped my mouth.
　Do you mean that favorite thing I love?
　I mean, I've never been told that before, so I'm not sure what to do about it.

　But I didn't have time to be impatient.

"Um!　Me too!
Wow. I'm going to .......
Oh, yeah?

　The remaining two insisted that they did too.
　Along with the first girl who said "I love you," the three of them look straight at me and tell me they love me.

　Their eyes were strong and their feelings were sincere.
　I could see that, but what should I do?

Oh, thank you.

　It was such a goofy line that I squeezed it out.

'Kyah!'
I'm glad!
'Oh ...... I'm getting dizzy ......'

　The dumb answer made me feel like a fox had gotten a hold of me.
　I felt as if I'd been picked up by a fox.

　　　　　Stars.

I'm not surprised.

　Alice and I got up and left the house and were on our way to the dungeon when she heard the story and said simply.
　By the way, Eve woke up before I knew it and disappeared before I knew it.

''Of course?''
He's young and good-looking and big enough to call the head of the association and he'll come.
'Is it cool?　I mean, Clint asked for me, and he'll be here to check on mission completion.
You were very gallant in a pinch. That's a big point.
Yeah?
And it's a dream come true to be an adventurer fighting in dungeons. That's why I went to Cyclo, too.
I see. ......

　Maybe that's true.
　A world where everything is dropped from dungeons. The logistics of this world, or to put it bluntly, the very lifeblood of this world, is in the hands of adventurers.
　It's understandable that people yearn for adventurers who can fight in dungeons, especially if there are no dungeons in the village.

I'm going to be the head of the association, and Lyota is already the star of this village.
It's embarrassing to be called a star, but I get the story.

　I'm convinced and walk with Alice.
　On the way from Alice's house to the dungeon, I look closely and see the villagers watching me from afar.
　All of them are looking at me fondly, and some have the same expressions as the girls this morning.

　I felt itchy to be seen like that, so I decided to run away into the dungeon.
　I walked quickly to the entrance of the dungeon.

"All right, let's go. I'll go ahead and come back to the entrance.
Yeah, I'm here.

　I entered the dungeon first, leaving Alice nodding at me.
　The only way to capture this dungeon, which changes its structure every time someone enters, is to join up with them when they enter.

　There are two ways to join up, and I've decided to take the most reliable one.
　I'd go in first, return to the entrance, and then meet Alice, who'd come in later and send her away with me.

　The reason I'm going to attack with Alice is because of her special ability.
　She was born in a dungeon and can somehow figure out the structure of the dungeon and where the monsters are.
　It's a dungeon that changes its structure every time you enter, and you need Alice to find out if there's a floor below.

　In a strange dungeon, you try to get back to the entrance by going in a direction that looks like that.
　It was practically my first dungeon and I was a bit lost.

　Gasp.

　I heard a noise from the shadows.
　I wondered if one of the villagers was hiding in the dungeon.

“--!

　Suddenly, someone attacked.
　A black shadow attacked like a gale, its dull-colored blade reflecting light in an arc as it attacked.
　It wasn't a monster!

　He quickly grabbed the blade that had grazed the tip of his nose and hit it with a body blow.
　It's a human being, or at least something human-shaped.

　The opponent bends his body in a crouch and stops moving.
　I let go of the blade in my grip and put my hand in my pocket to do something, so I gave him a hard hook to the face.

　The black shadow ran into the wall and fell down.
　If you look closely, it's still a human being, and the way it looks.

An assassin?

　I couldn't help but think of those words as they appeared in my head.
　I grabbed and took away the sharp-bladed ictis, and he attacked me out of the blue, dressed in black.
　I was dressed in black and came out as an orthodox assassin.

　Assassination?　Me?
　...... Why?

　When the questions kept coming up and I had to catch them and make them throw up.

　The structure of the dungeon has changed!

　When I tried to catch the assassin, the dungeon suddenly changed its structure and I got separated from my opponent.

...... The timing of this is not a coincidence.

　I don't know what or how, but I know intuitively that I was set up to fail to catch the guy.
　I don't know if they sent a signal or if they were watching me, but I don't think it's a coincidence that the dungeon structure changed at a time when I could catch the guy.

Let's find him... or Alice, who's waiting for me at the door.

　If the structure of the dungeon has changed, then someone has entered it.
　That would mean that Alice was at the entrance.

　I ran. I ran through a dungeon with no known structure.
　I encountered the little devils, but I ignored them, they attacked me, but I ignored them all with my HP and strength S. I ran for about five minutes, and then the dungeon was over.

　I ran for about five minutes, and then I saw the dungeon entrance.

''Alice!''
Lyota!
Are you okay?
Yeah, I am. Stranger things have run off.
Did he run off?
Yeah, someone pushed me in, and then two guys came out and ran off in pieces.
You missed it.
What do you mean?
He attacked me... or was it an assassination?
Assassination?　Oh, but dressed like it: ......

　After being surprised, Alice was convinced when she remembered the outfit.
　Yes, the more the outfit convinced her, the more assassin-like it was.
　Who's the problem?　What's the point of doing that?

　It hurts that we didn't catch it.

"Hey Lyota, your body has some kind of glow to it.
What?

　When Alice pointed out to me, I could see that my body was indeed glowing.
　To be exact, it was flashing red underneath my clothes.
　I took it out to see what it was all about.

'Tears of Slime: ......'
That's the one that counters damage.
'Yeah, the one that dropped the high gut slime, and then had it re-dropped by Hagremonos: ...... Is this light an additional effect?'

　I stare at the slime's tears, observing what the light means.

'...... Alice, which way did the guy who ran away go?'
Well, there and there.

　Alice pointed in two opposite directions.
　First she went toward one with her slime tears, the blinking slowed a bit.
　Now she went in the other direction, and the blinking started to accelerate.

What do you mean?
Maybe they're tracking the person who countered .......

　I decided to go after the one that was blinking fast.

　　　　　☆

Did you miss it?
I'm sorry!
Huh, he's even stronger than I expected. I thought they were just an upstart family, but it looks like they're doing just fine.
What do you want to do?
Did they see your face?　Can you track it?
He didn't see me and he didn't follow me.
Then lay low for a while and we'll think of something else to do.
Okay-- mm.
What's going on-- what?

　They were talking in the forest when they noticed something strange about their bodies.
　Both of them had their bodies bound by something shiny.

'Hey ......, what's this?'
I can't move. ...... What's going on?

　The two of them desperately tried to untie the rope of light, but they struggled and didn't falter.

'So that's how it is,'
Who are you?

　I walked up to the "what the hell" guy... slowly.
　I put my gun away and walk slowly.
　I am certain that the two of them will not be able to shake off the strapped bullets of the reinforced bullet machine.

Satou ...... Lyota.

　The exasperated man is the face I saw, the head of the Samethrene Dungeon Association.
　The man tied up beside him is the man in black who attacked me earlier.

You mean you sent him to me?
What are you talking about?
f*ck off. That's okay, I'm not really good at that stuff. "Alice.
Yeah!

　Alice, who had followed me along, came alongside me.

'Go back to the village and get Clint, he's probably better at this sort of thing than I am.
Okay!

　Alice nodded, instantly turning herself around and running.
　I, who was left behind, and the two men who were being held.

　The head of the Samethrene association was going pale, as funny as it was.
