An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being

Chapter 61

Episode 061: Dungeon Camp △

It was a convenient schedule for the Dungeon Exploration Department, but there was a study session on Thursday and a holiday on Friday.

And today is Friday. It's the day when we head to the depths of the Shushima Dungeon.

"Let's go shopping first."

"Hmm."

It will be two nights and three days.

I asked, "Is it okay to sleep in the same place as a man like me?"

Of course I won't do anything, but as a matter of common sense, it's a big problem for women to spend the night together as a man and woman who aren't lovers, but she doesn't seem to think so.

You may think that I can't do anything because she holds my weakness. It has nothing to do with that, but it's not wrong in the sense that I won't do anything more than I usually would.

We headed to the shopping center to buy the equipment we needed for our stay, it was mainly Shia who bought the things she needed for our stay, since I had bought such equipment the other day, I decided to buy food and consumables. We met in front of the store.

"Didn't you buy too much?"

"?"

The moment I see Shia's appearance, I instinctively ask. However, Shia doesn't seem to understand what I mean and just tilts her head.

Shia, who I met with in front of the store, had a big bag in her hands and a big backpack with a capacity expansion function that she had just bought. She obviously had an amount of luggage that a normal woman would never have.

I would like to avoid using Luck's ability in this place so as not to surprise anyone.

"I'll carry your luggage."

"Hmm."

For the time being, I took the luggage she had in both hands and started walking towards the Shushima Dungeon.

When there were no signs of people around us and I couldn't feel anyone looking at us, we walked through a place with many obstacles and I used Luck's power to store everything in the shadows.

It may be seen by a stronger explorer than me, but there is no reason to watch the bottom like me, and I decided that it would be unavoidable to be seen at this time. If I say it's a skill, I can hide the existence of Luck.

I don't have any skills!!

As usual, the security of the outside is the same, so we invade the dungeon as usual.

"Which is better, going slowly while exploring all levels or going to the depths at the fastest speed?"

"Depths."

Time is finite. After confirming the plan with Shia, I got the expected answer.

"Fastest, is it."

"Hmm."

"Roger that."

I think she wants to fight strong monsters since she's training. To be honest, I don't know why we're sticking to an E-rank dungeon instead of going to a D-rank dungeon.

For Shia, who became an E-rank explorer earlier than me, I don't think it's a big deal for Shia to fight the stronger E-rank monsters. She shouldn't worry too much about it.

"Then, let's go down using the shortest path."

"Hmm."

"If you don't go to far from us, you can go wild, Luck?"

"Won!"

We defeat the Bonus Monsters with 'Bassa bassa' and go to the deeper floors one after another. Luck seems to be hunting monsters out of our way.

I noticed that we had reached the 7th floor in a few hours. With this pace, we may be able to reach the bottom layer tomorrow.

"Hmm ~, there is no change in the strength of monsters so far."

"Disappointing."

Shia is also looking forward to different Bonus Monsters, and her ahoge is also despondent.

"Well, let's rest around here today."

"Hmm."

We arrived at a slightly open place, so today I decided to set up a tent and camp here. Eating delicious food should distract us a little.

"I'm going to make hot pot today!!"

"Hmm!!"

"Won."

Today's dish is Chinese cabbage and pork millefeuille hot pot that I neither like nor dislike. Of course I saw the recipe online. I usually live with my family, so I don't cook for myself, so I made it as simple as possible.

However, because we have the shadows, there are no restrictions on the equipment we can bring, so we have more freedom and luxury than ordinary people's camps.

This time as well, I brought a table for cutting the ingredients, even though it was bulky, so the two of us cut the ingredients there, and there was also a portable stove and a gas canister, so I could easily light a fire and cook.

I didn't know if one pot was enough, so I bought two of the biggest ones, one for me and Shia, and the second for Luck separately.

"Well then, itadakimasu!!"

"Itadakimasu."

"Won!"

When I finished cooking I left Luck's as it was, and along with Shia, dished up our own bowls, it was time to eat.

""...""

The three of us ate a bite first, and then we all began to eat quietly and vigorously. Shia and I immediately emptied our bowls, and despite the fact that Luck's was hot, it was eating out of the pot without worrying about it.

""Fuu ... delicious ... another helping.""

The voices of Shia and I overlap.

"Hahahahaaa. I'll dish it up."

"Hmm ......"

At Shia's embarrassed reply, I dish her up a large portion, and serve myself a similar portion."

I noticed that the pot was empty in no time. Next to us, Luck had emptied the other pot.

"Fufufufu. This is not the end, you guys!!"

""~ ??""

It's not the end of the hot pot when you finish eating the ingredients.

The hot pot is only over after eating to the end.

The two of them, who were a little depressed because of the lack of food, raised their faces at my words. Both Shia's ahoge, and Luck's tail express their joy.

"There is something called a hot pot finisher. Today's finisher is udon!"

I took out a bag of udon from Luck's shadow and raised it up.

"Oh ~."

"Wooooon."

Shia raised a voice with no intonation, and Luck howls with excitement.

Immediately add udon noodles to the remaining soup stock, add condiments, and simmer until cooked to complete it. After that, we enjoyed udon to our heart's content.

"I can't eat anymore."

"Me too."

"Won Won."

Shia and I lie down and rub our stomachs, but Luck seems to be able to eat more. If you eat too much, you will become a fat dog, so this is the end.

"It's over."

"Kuun ..."

You can't sway me with such a sad face and voice.

It's not good to be too spoiled.

I decided to stick with my words, I have to discipline it properly.

"Do you want to take a bath?"

"Bath?"

A while after eating food, I decided it was time for a bath.
