Chapter 37
Chapter 37. Four Days Of Leveling Up
After taking two days off to recover our strength, Kodachi-san and I spent the next four days raising our level and earning daily wages.
When working with Kodachi-san, it had been standard practice for us to earn money on the 3rd floor.
However, since Kodachi and I both had improved in fighting ability, we came to the hopeful conclusion that we could make it to the fourth layer without Yumitsuki.
We decided to try the 4th floor, just the two of us.
The result was that we just barely made it.
We could win each battle, but the goblin shaman’s [Fire Bolt] was too much for us to handle, and we inevitably got hit once or twice in battles.
I would use [Earth Heal] once at the end of each battle.
Compared to the battle on the 3rd floor, I was exhausted.
However, my maximum MP is 48 points, so I still managed to make it in time.
When I thought it was time to return home, I ran out of MP.
We could conquer the 4th floor with just the two of us, so we mainly worked on the 4th layer for the past four days.
This brought income for Kodachi-san and me to a record high level, earning about 25,000 yen per person per day of dungeon exploration.
During this time, my wood shield’s [Durability] reached its limit, and I had to buy a new shield, but the amount of income was so great that it hardly mattered, and Kodachi-san and I were both very happy.
Kodachi-san took this opportunity to put her two beloved daggers to rest and purchased two high-end daggers, Baselard, which cost 20,000 yen each, and equipped them.
In addition, she upgraded her armor from leather armor to Cuir Bouilli, which cost 35,000 yen and greatly strengthened her offensive and defensive capabilities.
I likewise converted my armor from leather armor to Cuir Bouilli
Also, the new shield I replaced the Wood Shield with is a 15,000 yen bronze shield.
With my Wood Shield, there was a tendency for some damage to penetrate it when the hobgoblin hit it with a heavy attack, but this has disappeared since I switch to the Bronze Shield.
In addition, the Bronze Shield’s durability decrease is decreased compared to the Wood Shield.
And the 4th day: the day before the day I promised Yuzuki.
Kodachi-san and I, who had been exploring the 4th layer, arrived at a large door.
The large double-opening stone door was carved with a hideous pattern on both the left and right sides.
Beside the door was a pedestal with a blue orb.
When seekers held their hand over this orb, the door would open. It’s according to an online information site.
This is the entrance to the boss room on the 4th floor.
Behind this door, the boss of this level and his cronies await.
Kodachi-san looks at the door and calls out to us while twirling the dagger in her hand, a Baserd.
“Well, we’ve come this far. Well, we’re going home today, right?”
“Yes, sir. If we’ll have a match, I think it will be tomorrow with Yuzuki.”
“…Do you think we can do it, Musou-san?”
“Well, I think we can manage. The goblin lord will get accompanied by this floor’s monster as a party? The goblin lord doesn’t seem so strong that you can’t compete with it from the data I’ve seen.”
“I knew it was like that. Besides, there’s that ‘trick’ you mentioned.”
The data on the Internet left by our predecessors is great.
Although there are some parts I can’t feel until I fight, it’s very nice to get a rough idea of the enemy’s strength before I rush in.
On the other hand, the past seekers who challenged the bosses without any previous information were rather crazy.
But, when they go into the dungeon, all the seekers were just as bad as the rest of us.
In addition, based on the experience of past seekers, a little ‘trick’ has been invented for boss battles.
It may not be enough to influence the battle outcome, but it can be a great addition to the battle.
“Well, shall we go home today?”
“Yes, that’s right. Then, Princess, let me escort you out of the dungeon.”
“Hahaha. Musou-san sometimes says strange things, don’t you?”
“Ugh. I’m embarrassed if you don’t get on board.”
“Hmph, sorry. I’m going to ask you for a ride, my knight.
We made a U-turn and were on our way back.
Please ignore my devastating sense of humor.
The game is tomorrow.
I’ve improved over the past four days.
Let’s put the culmination of our efforts to the test.
