Good job. Thank you, Emily, Celeste.

　I thanked the two of them while recovering from the fierce battle with recovery bullets.

''You're welcome,''
Did I make it right?

　Celeste sits on the ground and looks up at me.
　I reach out to her and make her stand.

''Yeah, enough is enough. If it's difficult enough for the two of us to have to fight like that, most of us wouldn't even be able to get through this place before we went around.
That's a hard push, yes.
What's going on here?

　Emily, who reached out her hand to make her stand as well, asks Celeste back with a curious look on her face.

'Alice,'
I see, so you can get out of the dungeon without encountering a dungeon birth.

　Celeste gave a small nod.

　Dungeon-born.
　As the name suggests, it refers to people born in dungeons.
　Alice, Rebecca Neon, and others are examples of this.

　You can feel the "presence" (the expression changes depending on the person) of the dungeon as its characteristic.
　You can sense the structure of the first dungeon you enter, the location of monsters, the timing and points of new monsters, and the best time to drop them.

　If you use it well, you can completely avoid monsters in dungeons.
　That's dungeon born.

''You don't have to deal with that one?''
'Yes. I should, but I honestly don't think I could do without.
Why is that?
"If you want to do something with a few elites to get out of the way, just ask a dungeon birth to guide you through the dungeon. But this time, the goal is to build a barricade here to make it more difficult to get around. It's practically impossible to guide a large number of adventurers on a daily basis with just dungeon births.
Okay, that's true.

　Celeste agreed.
　However, I'll think about it, just in case.

　I'll have Alice come with me later and ask her for her opinion from a dungeon-spawned perspective.

　It's not necessary for anything, but it's better if we have it, so it might be better to do it.

Well, let's get out of here.
Yes, sir.
Yeah, you two, get behind me. If I'm on the way, I'll take you down.
Are you sure?　Knock me down.
There are twelve stars.

　I said and flipped up my sleeve to show him.

'It's okay if it's a little less ...... No, if it's less, we'll come back later to reset it.

　I admonish myself for being too proud to do so.
　Whenever something happens, it's from this kind of pride that a crack in the wall comes out.

　I'll do the best I can and always try to keep it at 12 stars.
　With that in mind, I take the two of them and head in the direction of the gate that came from the transporter room.

I'll cook this for you when I get back.
Is that the one from the matsutake ......?
Yes, sir. I picked it up.
Good. Emily and her fancy food. I'm just so excited.
Me too.
Steamed earthenware, cooked rice, and baked goods.
......
You're drooling, Lyota.
I have some unfortunate news.
What is it?
I don't think you noticed, but Celeste is drooling, too.
What--?

　Celeste hurriedly wiped her own mouth, I wiped it slowly.

　Celeste said "Emily + high quality food", there's nothing wrong with drooling over that, it's rather normal, so I didn't mind at all.

　We talked about matsutake mushrooms, and the group of three headed for the gate.

So this is Tenesin. So, what are we going to do?
We'll just go to the top floor and put up the flag.
Why?
I'm just showing him that I'm serious about my employer.

　Before I reached the gate, I heard them talking from a distance.
　It seemed to be a couple of guys.

　I give Celeste and Emily a look and they nod and follow me.
　The three of us quietly make our way towards the voices.

　The adventurers came at just the right time.
　From the content of the conversation, they must be adventurers hired by the other side.

　If that's the case, I want to see how they can fight and get out of it with me.

　I approach with Emily and Celeste and sneak a peek at the two adventurers from behind the pillars of the tower.

　Two young men, just as I'm about to encounter mine.

'This is ...... Lyota Sato!
No, the monster. The monster in the form of Ryota Sato.
'I thought you'd already put everything back together. 'd*mn!　Can you beat it?
I'm out!

　One of the two immediately turned himself around and ran away.

'Hey!　What do you do?
You better get the hell out of here!　Lyota Sato is involved, and she's over there!　It makes us look bad in the eyes of the public.
-Oh!

　In no time at all, the other one escaped and they were both gone from Tennysin.

......

　Unexpectedly, I chuckle.
　But the two companions I'm with.

'That's Yoda for you.
A lot of prestige and trust.

　Each of them looked at me with admiring eyes with their own words.
