In the morning we all had breakfast together.
　There was a large dining room, like a nobleman's house, with a long table in it.
　I was seated by all of us at the master's table by the violence of numbers called democracy.

　It was an extremely long rectangular table, the short side of which I was seated at.
　I was told that this was my permanent position. A bit embarrassing.
　Then everyone sat down on the long side, two on each side.
　It really is like a nobleman's dinner scene from a story.

　I said we should stop doing this and replace it with a round table, but the violence of numbers still pushed us away.
　It can't be helped.

　　　　　☆

　After breakfast, I didn't go outside, but flew to the sixth floor below Nifonium in the transition room.
　I used the Absolute Rock stone to set up invincibility mode, and then used Repetition to defeat the Poison Zombies from one side to the other.

　I decided to defeat them all with Repetition today.
　Defeat them, get the intelligence seeds, and increase their abilities.

　I did my usual ability-raising laps, which I did with maximum efficiency.
　I'll be able to go around and move(...)

　I circled around with all my might, and after raising my intelligence from E to D, I used the light point that had been transferred to me to return to the mansion.
　Then check the time.

　Just like the relationship between Piro and the circle, the time in this world is similar to the previous one. However, there's no concept of time being divided into morning and afternoon, and it's unified from 0 to 23.

　I left at eight o'clock in the transition and returned a little after ten.
　Normally it takes until about twelve o'clock to raise the capacity in the morning.
　With the highest efficiency of the transition gate and repetition-only, I found that it would take about half the time as usual.

　　　　　Stars.

　I didn't go to earn money this afternoon, but came to the transition room.
　Thanks to Eve, I was able to get to all the cyclo levels, and I checked that all over.
　Convenient transition room, there was one last thing I wanted to check.

　With that in mind, I entered the room and reminded myself of where I was moving to.

　Aurum, Aurum's room.

'Well, let's see if we can make it.'

　After tweeting, the scene in front of me changed.
　I flew to Aulum's room as specified.
　Yeah, it looks like I got here properly.
　It looks like she can fly to the Lord's room as well, not just the normal level of the dungeon.

　She had a lot of time on her hands in the empty space.
　She was slightly taller than Emily at 140cm. Dressed in gothic clothes, with demonic horns and bat wings.
　The Lord of the Aulum Dungeon, his name is Aulum as it is.

'I'm here to play, Aulum.
'What?　Ryota?　Why are you here?　How did you get here?
Oh, you know.

　Aulum is puzzled, and from the way he talks, he can tell I've come in an unorthodox way.

'I understand. Since I'm the one in this dungeon, I know where all the monsters were killed and how much gold was dropped,
'You also know if you've beaten the rares to get here.
Yes.

　So why?　He gave me a look.

'More importantly, why don't we go outside?　We're taking you somewhere different today.
Let's go!

　Aulum came on board with a bite.
　It seemed to be more important to her that we could get out there than why we were here.

　I shot her excitedly and replaced her with a gold bar.
　Then I took the heavy gold and returned to the mansion and slipped it back into the haglemono in the basement.

"Where am I?　It's your first time at ...... but it's nothing.

　A slight disappointment crossed Aulum's face.
　Is it because the empty place is going to be like that place where she's always been?

'It's my home. The reason there's nothing in there is because that's what the room is for.
Yeah, Lyota's house.
It's different up there.

　With that, I went up first. Aulum comes out after that.

'Wow. ......'

　The moment they came up to the ground, Aulum was melted in body and soul.
　Even though it hadn't been days since they moved in, the mansion was completely dyed in Emily's colors.

　A warm, bright, and gentle mansion.
　The house Emily lived in would always be like that, and the first person to visit it would be struck by its kindness without exception.

　Apparently, Aulum was no exception.

'Wow, this place is amazing, this place is amazing, this house is amazing.'

　I repeated the same lines three times.
　It's like the content wasn't there, it's like my brain threw away my vocabulary with so much warmth and tenderness.

'Haha. ......'
I'm glad you liked it. It's good to have you with us.
'Yes!　Thank you!　Oh, ...... what to do.
What?
I can't believe they're taking me to such an amazing place. I think I'm in a body that can't survive without Lyota.
You're exaggerating.

　But I don't feel bad about it. It's just that they're that happy.

"I've got to thank you for something: ...... Lyota!　Take this!

　Saying that, the one that Aulum held out to me was a gold nugget.
　It weighs roughly about a kilo when I receive it. It's a gold nugget, so one of these would be about 3 million piro.

My feelings!
That's just plain awesome.
That's the limit outside the dungeon, and I'll give you back a hundred times as much when I get back.
I don't need that much!

　A hundred kilos of gold is too scary. I don't want to receive it.

　　　　　☆

　I took Aurum with me and we went into town.
　Dressing in gothic loli, horns and feathers is not normal, but some of the adventurers were dressed more unusual, so I was okay with that.

　It was rather difficult for me.

'Ryota, it's about time for a festival, so I'd like to order a bunch of Ryota pumpkins.
'I moved from Benzene to Cyclo because I admire Mr. Lyota!　I look forward to working with you!　And please sign it!
''Hey Lyota. There's a long magic storm coming next week for three days in a row, so I'm hoping you'll be in the dungeon then.

　Various people came to talk to me when I went out on the streets.
　I've been talked to when I'm walking before, but since the incident with Arsenic, it's increased.
　It seems that I became a celebrity, and I'm happy and mixed feelings.

　After dealing with the people that surround me, I come back to Ahrum, who is walking around the city.

"What do you think, Aulum, the city of Cyclo?
'It's amazing, there's so many different things, all of which I've never seen before.
Really?
'Yes!　Hey, what's this?
This is a bamboo dragonfly.
A bamboo dragonfly?

　It was a bamboo dragonfly for sale at the grocery store. I didn't know we had them in this world.
　I paid the shopkeeper, scraped the shaft and sent the bamboo dragonfly flying.

　The well-made bamboo dragonfly flew straight up and fell straight down with a slow rotation.

'It's a toy that works like this.
'Wow!　I've never done anything like this before.
First time.
'Yes!　It's all new to me!　It's an amazing town. Ah!
What's going on?
See that guy over there and that couple on the other side? They were in my dungeon before, so I've seen them. Oh, and that guy over there, too.

　Every one of them was an adventurer as Aulum pointed one after the other.

It's a magic cart. I didn't know they were lined up like this.

　I stopped in front of the magic cart shop. Apparently, he knows about magic carts too.
　My knowledge is completely skewed, I only know what comes in the dungeon.

　For seeing it, and for getting a transporter room at the mansion.
　I thought again that I should bring more Aulum with me.

'Hey Lyota.
Yeah?
Why do you keep staring at me like that?
Stare?

　I was told by Ahrum, who had a troubled look on his face, and I looked around.
　I realized that most people in the city are looking at Ahrum.

　It doesn't matter if you are young or old, male or female, regardless of occupation or status.
　Most people - ninety-nine percent of the people in the city were looking at Ahrum.

　Why?

　I observed for a while, but I wasn't sure.
　They didn't have anything to say, they were all looking at Aulum.
　It's an awfully glazed look. Why, really?

Hey, Lyota, what's this?
Yeah?　Yeah, that's a marble.
Marbles?　It's beautiful.
I'll give it to you.

　I reached into my pocket and tried to steal a marble from the sparkling-eyed Ahrum.
　A gold nugget fell out of my pocket.
　It was the kilo of gold that Ahrum had given me earlier.

""--!"

　It was as if they heard a sound, such a reaction.
　The people in the city who had been staring at Aurum at the fallen gold nugget all stared at it at the same time.
　The same exact gleam in their eyes as when they looked at Aulum.

　...... Ah, so that's what it is.

'I get it, Aulum, why everyone is staring at Aulum.
Really?　What's going on?
Because everyone loves Aulum (gold).
"Huh?
Everyone likes you. On the other hand, who doesn't like Aulum (Kim)?

　I don't think he's there.
　Aulum tilted his head in a chimpy way after being told that.

　She picked up a gold nugget and bought the marbles for pennies.
　As she was about to give it to Aulum, she saw a young man stop in front of her.
　The young man is looking straight at Aulum, a drastic look on his face.

'I've loved you from the first time I saw you!　Please go out with me.

　I suddenly confessed.

'Yeah?　What's going on? What's going on, Lyota?
A confession, usually.
"Confession?

　You don't understand that either.

　Despite Aulum's confusion, the young man says further.

'Please be mine!
I see.

　Aurum came back from his confusion, understanding.

'I'm sorry. I was made to live in a body that can't live without Lyota, so I can't be yours.
'We're going to talk about it here and now!　And the way you say it, it's getting worse!
"Oh, God, oh, God, oh, God, oh, God!

　When he was refused, the young man ran away, half in tears.

He cried. ......
I'm sure I'll cry. You shouldn't have to talk to me like that.
'Really?　Hmmm, people are so hard to deal with. But it's funny too!

　Aulum says it's her first time and it's still fresh.
　Now, what will I show her next?

　Since this should be her first time doing anything other than dungeons, let's show her something normal without being eccentric--.

''Kyaaaah!''

　Suddenly, Aulum screamed.
　When he turned around, he saw that Aulum had been kidnapped.
　A man wearing a hat and a mask was running away, carrying Aulum. He looks like a bank robber.

'Wait!'

　He shouted and the man glanced back for a moment.
　Lust - eyes riddled with money lust.

　The gold in his pocket made its presence felt. It's like he was kidnapped because Aulum is Aulum (gold).

'Rita ......'

　And I don't have time for that kind of analysis. I have to help.

　Gugu, I stepped in. I kicked the ground and dashed as hard as I could.
　With my speed SS, I caught up to the man in an instant and went around in front of him.

"--NAH!
Give me Auldurm.

　He pulls out his right hand and thrusts a body blow into his belly, holding Aulum, who is being carried in a fluid motion.

　The man's legs float for a moment and his body folds into a crooked shape, then he falls to the ground, spewing hesitation.

'Don't do it brother.
I've seen some really cool stuff.
I wish I could help like that.

　When he regained Ahrum from the kidnappers, he was praised by everyone for being a great daytime spectator.
　It's not about that, it's about Aulum.
　I set her down and looked straight into her face.

'Are you alright, Aulum?'
......
Auldurm?
What do I do? ...... I don't know if I could survive without you anymore.
'No, that's not the point. It's really okay.
'Not for fun!　Ugh, it's ......, it's fine.
Okay, fine.
Ugh. ......

　Aurum moans in frustration for some reason. I don't know why, but my body seems to be okay, so that's good for now.

　But what should I do?
　Even at this moment, Aulum is attracting gazes, gazes covered in greed.
　It's time to pull out of here.

"Let's go home, Aurum. Let's go home today, Aurum.
Are you leaving already?
Yeah.

　I nodded. It's a bit distressing to leave so early, but I'll bring you back when you're ready for eye contact.

...... Yeah, okay. Then do this.
You can go to ......

　Aulum jumped on me. He jumped on my back with his petite body and positioned himself as if he were a piggyback.
　Aulum's body was soft and, most importantly, light despite being gold.

'I wouldn't want you to get kidnapped again!
Yeah.

　Well, if that's the case. I carried her home in my arms to protect her.

　By the time we got to the house, Ahrum was squeezing me and my body felt hot.
