282. A man who exceeds the limit




 I sat cross-legged in the basement of the mansion and stared at the new bullet in my hand.

 Considering the effect, I named it a forced drop bullet for now - I shrunk it down a bit more and called it a drop bullet.
 When you shoot this bullet, the monster opponent you hit will make one drop S standard drop.
 Regardless of whether you defeat it or not, each bullet drops one Drop S.

 The effect is the same no matter what kind of opponent you use it against, but I thought the real value of this bullet is only against rare monsters.

 I take out a rusty key from my pocket.
 In total, seven of them.

 That's the amount of bullets dropped from one dungeon master Ryo-sama.
 Six dropped bullets plus the usual topknot, for a total of seven.

 Since Ryo-sama's appearance rate is high, though, I don't appreciate these seven keys at the moment.
 This is, for example, assuming Selenium has a Dungeon Master Bicorn.
 If I took a hundred drop bullets, a hundred easily prepared bullets, I could collect a hundred bicorn horns, in a matter of seconds.

 It would be most powerful against rare monsters that were hard to appear like this.

 Now that we know the performance of the drop bullets, we have a good idea of what we'll be using them for.
 Thinking in a corner of my mind about what else I could do, I changed all seven rusty keys into golden keys via Hagremonos and Repetition before leaving the basement.

 It's evening outside, and it's almost time for my friends to return.
 When they return, I will give the key to everyone.
 The key to that room, I had decided to give each of my friends a key to that room.

"--

 Suddenly, I heard a good mood humming in the distance.
 The humming invited me to go over and I found Emily's back as I entered the kitchen.

'Oh ......,'
Oh, you're home.

 Emily turned to me when she noticed the voice that had leaked out of her mind.

 She's petite, like a child at six feet, but the sight of her in the kitchen in the sunset wearing an apron is warm and divine.
 I couldn't help but gawk at him, even though we'd been living together for over a year.

'What's wrong, Yoda-san?'
'What? Oh no, ...... its

 I thought about it for a moment, and then said my previous comment in a flash.

"You're really good with a knife.
Thank you, sir.

 Emily smiled happily and turned forward again.
 A knife danced on the chopping board, shredding the cabbage on the chopping board in a quiet dance.

'You're a master,'

 When I looked at it again, that impression came out of my mouth naturally.
 The knife handling flowing, a quick glance at it doesn't feel fast at all, but the cabbage strips are cut one after another and piled fluffily into the bowl on the side.

 In battle manga style, it's the sword of stillness, the realm of clear water.
 With super-skilled movements, Emily cuts the cabbage into strips.

'Thanks for always making everyone's food, right?
I love to cook.
Well, thank you.

 Emily chuckled, and this time began to prepare the potatoes.

'Potatoes, huh?'
Yes, sir. Freshly picked potatoes.
You mean, you think Emily got it?

 It reminds me of breakfast.
 A report, not so much a report, but at breakfast before I left for work, everyone somehow declared that they were going to go somewhere today.
 I don't think anyone said they were going to the potato growing region (hierarchy) today.

'Yes, sir. I took everyone's portion from the father and son slime.

 Emily said, then smiled with a troubled look on her face.

'I need to get a little stronger. If I get a few more companions, the hardness of the parent and child slime to make it enough for the amount of slime I have will increase and I won't be able to defeat it.''
Oh, you were such a monster.

 Parent and Child Slime. A monster that lives on the sixth floor below Telluride John.
 Its name is "Parent and Child", but it's actually one monster.

 The more 'children' it defeats first, the more drops it gets when it defeats its 'parent' at the end.
 However, the harder the 'parent' is, or rather, the more defense it has.

 The key to attacking and circling the 6th floor of the tellurium is to adjust the number of children until they are just barely hard enough to be defeated.

...... Mm?
Mr. Yoda, how can I help you?
......
Mr. Yoda?

 Emily tilts her head to look into my face.
 I didn't even have time to react to Emily, but something in my head flashed through my mind, a scene.

 As soon as the scene came together clearly, I flipped myself around and started to run.

'Yoda-san!'

 Leaving Emily behind, he ran down the hallway and into the transporter room.

 I activate the transporter gate, designating the sixth floor below Tellurium.
 It's the entrance to practically every dungeon, so I pushed the magic cart parked here, jumped into the gate in the shape of a light vortex, and flew to the desired level in an instant.

 In the sixth floor of the tellurium, there were many adventurers and a lot of father and son slimes.

 I caught a free father and son slime among them and entered the battle.
 First, I fired a series of growth bullets, killing all the "children" and maximizing the drop and hardness of the "parents".

 Next, I shot a restraining round, and easily restrained the parent slime, whose strength and spirit--defense was equivalent to S-class, but other abilities were unchanged.
 I push the magic cart and lay it on the parent slime.

 As it is, I push the two pistols against it - firing continuously from zero distance.
 I alternately fired a series of drop bullets and recovery bullets.

 I shot the drop bullets - I shot the drop bullets that made it drop without knocking it down, and the potatoes were dropped by the maximum amount.
 Drop S + maximum hardness parent slime.
 A mountain of potatoes dropped and transferred directly to the mansion's sub-branch with a side-by-side magic cart.

 I fired a recovery round.
 Heals a parent slime that has taken a small amount of damage, about the size of a normal bullet.

 More drop bullets were shot, a mountain of potatoes dropped in almost no time.
 Transferred it to the mansion.

 More recovery bullets--.

 I fire a series of drop bullets and recovery bullets alternately, sending a mountain of potatoes to the sub-branch with a magic cart.

 Recovery from the forced drop, and then repeat the process.
 By my estimate--I produced several dozen kilos of potatoes per second.

 I was usually thinking of "other ways" to do things without getting sidetracked, so this was the way I had a flash of inspiration.
 I got excited, and I started to pick up the pace.

'Yoda-san! You have to wait a minute!
Emily? What's going on?

 Emily appears out of nowhere and stops me.
 She may have rushed after me from the kitchen, but she's still wearing her apron.

'It's too soon, Elsa-san has a flat tire.
Ah, .......

 Emily's restraint, a scene that instantly came to mind, made me chuckle.

 Apparently the rate of production was too fast and exceeded the upper limit of Elsa's processing speed, who was in charge of buying the entire family.
 It was the first time I'd ever done this, and I was pleased with this approach I'd been inspired to take.
