Dungeon Master Makeup Money

"I'm home."

It is Sonia who tells us that she has returned with a prolonged voice.

She is also a popular girl throughout the city of Teito because of her bright, corny laughter with dark hair shorthair.

When I first met her, she was a young girl, but she had been a fine woman within years of being together. In terms of dating length, it was Cattleya's next longest and indispensable moodmaker for the party.

"Welcome back"

Welcome Sonia back.

It's a man's job to welcome a woman back than he was to let his own woman work outside.

That said, if it is not a familiar home in the imperial capital, it is not the imperial castle from which it will be based. It's an inn in the border city of Alistair in the kingdom of Metis.

"Eh heh, thanks"

He responds with a sloppy smile.

Though this guy is also a sideroom, I just want him to look like that because he's going to be the Emperor's wife, but I can't force him to correct it because this kind of people-friendly figure is Sonia's strength.

"So, how was work?

"Yeah. I got it right."

Four other people besides me who were in the room in that word turn to Sonia.

It's not just the members who were in the room. Defending to the labyrinth in the Imperial capital... Members who returned to Sonia for safety are also attending the meeting in the same labyrinth tone.

"First, will you let me know how far you've finished your exploration within today?

"Right."

I knocked down the boss on the 10th floor of the basement and confirmed that he had been in Meadow Field since the 11th floor and told him that he had returned.

This neighborhood was no different from our labyrinth.

"Does that mean you no longer need a map to the tenth basement floor?"

Pass ten bundles of paper removed from the magic formation that appeared on the left hand side to the right hand and throw it appropriately. Beyond that is the same magic formation that first made it appear, and a bunch of paper is thrown in and gone.

It's the same skill as a toolbox (item box), a skill that holds tools, but that's the effect of the magic formation that appeared on the left hand side.

Sonia's skills.

- fantasy box (image box)

- Dust goes to dust box (dust chute)

An image box is a skill that creates a subspace that can hold as much of anything as the person's image holds. It is easier to use than a labyrinth-operated toolbox because it can be used without any magic consumption.

A dust chute is a skill that wipes out everything you store.

I just seem to be using these two skills to replace the objects I store, but I'm actually just disposing of them because I no longer need what I needed to store.

She smiles like a child and disposes of pointy things from next to next.

"What's that?

"Map from the first to the tenth basement. If the offense is over, you don't need it anymore."

"So is that."

"So, this is the map from the eleventh to the thirtieth basement."

A bunch of twenty sheets of paper placed on the table.

These are all current maps of the labyrinth near Alistair.

The labyrinth changes its structure every period of time, so each time it loses the value of the map it has now. But conversely, if you can prepare a map whenever the structure changes, you can continue to earn steady income by simply preparing a map.

This time around two weeks before the competition, the Adventurers Guild confirms that structural changes are taking place in the labyrinth.

Thanks to this, the adventurer, who was earning money by challenging the labyrinth and selling the maps he had made shortly after the structural changes had taken place, had finished making maps of the range he could explore.

There was also a reason around here to hold up the competition at this time.

Check the map placed on the table.

"As far as the content goes, it looks like something prepared by a pretty good guy."

"That's right. We did a good job of gathering information, finding good adventurers, and then we did business."

"No, thank God"

If it's a crude map, it only draws the entrance and exit, and some things only know the direction.

There is nothing like buying crude maps if the Alliance bought them from the adventurers who made the maps, but they asked for maps that were drawn to the point where they were more detailed than the maps sold in the Alliance - with or without traps, etc. - so they went to Sonia.

"But Rio's a bad person, too, isn't he? He said he doesn't collect information ahead of time, but he buys maps and collects information."

"Don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to break the rules."

"Yes, I am."

Marie, the brainchild of the party, teaches Sonia.

"We promised in the rules we proposed beforehand that 'we will not collect tactical information beforehand', but not before competition has already begun. Sonia also asked me to go out and collect information after we started. This is not before competition begins (...). It's only a race (...) happening"

"Yeah, isn't that rational?

"That's not true. You shouldn't be unaware of the blind spots in the rules."

This much deceit and deceit is common among adventurers.

It is not uncommon to have a blind spot in the text even though a contract has been exchanged in the case of a request from a nobleman of the person who did it, for example, for a small reward.

In that case, an adventurer who didn't notice is worse.

I also get as little such education as possible from the Emperor.

But Marie, who was more familiar with these things than I was, acted as a fraud.

"You come up with a way like this a lot."

"This one also has a purpose. You can't accomplish your goals if you say you're square and grand and you lose. And you didn't disagree with Mr. Rio, either."

"Oh, that doesn't make it useful."

'Yes, I monitor it, but I don't entirely think that Master Rio is buying the map or anything else'

A report arrives from Katrea, who has Mars under surveillance.

Marie also figured out a way to make them trust the rules.

Three people, including Cattleya, were constantly acting with the Mars, who had decided they were moving in six to attack their own labyrinth and three to defend themselves. And by constantly exposing himself to five of his fellow Mars, who seemed to remain in the defense, he made him think that there were five on the defense side and four on the defense.

The difference in perception is that if you make a solid report later, you will find out.

But there can't be a detailed report with the three Cattlemen beside Mars. Even during the attack, we do not report to a detailed number of people.

So if I were to find out, that night.

A lie for just one day.

However, I was able to move one person freely thanks to the time I got that day.

That advantage is huge.

This is how we got the map, and we hear from guilds and adventurers exactly what the labyrinth is like after the 31st floor, where the map is not made.

"It looks like it's still being explored up to the 45th floor underground. From there on ahead, the last confirmed is the awesome adventurer who challenged him hundreds of years ago. I don't know if the same thing is happening right now, but the basic fields are supposed to stay the same, so we've got some tactical information up to the 50th floor underground."

"Please tell me later. We'll have tactical routes in place by tomorrow morning."

"Yeah, please"

Information gathering and tactical routes.

I have no problem with these two things if I leave them to Sonia and Marie.

"So, if you ask for tactical information, how accurate will your future predictions be?"

Marie's Skills Future Watch (Hoocher Vision).

The future can be observed by obtaining information. The more accurate the information we gather, the more accurate it will be, so labyrinth intelligence gathering was indispensable in predicting if we could win.

"Our speed of reaching the fiftieth floor underground can be predicted. But there's too little information over there. Even in times of war, it is possible that we are not doing everything we can. If you don't know exactly what's going on over there, you can't predict how long it'll take to get there."

"No, you don't have to worry"

I just appreciate you anticipating our arrival time.

After that, it's on me, my husband.
