——She seemed to have only the red mint that was not even the background of the dungeon in her eyes.
"Wait, Shuna...would you consider going to the same dungeon with us?"
"Let's see if there is still this thing in the next dungeon."
Shuna Bolor shook the small mint with a pointed tip in her bag.
"See you next time if there is a chance——"
Then she waved her hand behind her.
Among the "free adventurers", Shuna Bolor is a special existence. Free adventurers——there is no fixed team. Some of them just come to play, and some are strong and choose the team as free people according to the price that the adventure team can offer.
They are called "free adventurers", but they are more like mercenaries who work for money.
Shuna is very strong, so strong that people think she may have no problem playing alone. And she can do everything and can almost take on any position in the team.
She gave herself the position of "logistics". In her words, "Ah, someone told me that only logistics knows everything and is the strongest trump card in the team. Although I don't know why he is so persistent, I'll just write it like this."
She doesn't act based on money, and her rewards are hard to describe. Sometimes she only wants a broken book among a bunch of dungeon clearance rewards, sometimes she only wants the materials after defeating the boss, and sometimes she will join in the fun even if she is only on the first floor. She doesn't talk much, and leaves after defeating the boss.
It's normal for her to pick a mint and leave like this time.
When she's free, you'll only see her reading books in some taverns - some books with the seal of the library of the Second College of Entak.
No one knows why a student girl who can borrow books from the library of the Second College of Entak becomes an adventurer.
And...
She looks too young, and as a girl, she acts too decisively and skillfully. There is a kind of horror of mismatch between age and performance on her.
But Isaac, the branch president of the Adventurer's Association she often visits... knows it very well.
The purpose of her actions comes only from... letters.
Isaac personally handed her many letters anonymously named "W", and she often looked for related dungeons on the commission board next to her after reading the letters.
"Oh? You're back, just in time. W gave you a new letter. This time the letter is registered, and the other party is particularly afraid of losing it."
"What?"
The decisive and selfless Xuna's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she immediately snatched the letter.
A delicate metal bookmark fell out of the letter.
She raised the bookmark and pointed it at the light.
"Hmm... It looks like the stars in the Milky Way. He really put his heart into it..."
Speaking in a doting tone, the decisive and capable Xuna actually showed a sweet smile like a young girl in love on her face.
Even the branch president Isaac couldn't stand it.
"Tsk tsk tsk. In order to prevent people from thinking that I abuse child labor, can you not work so hard next time?"
"I didn't work so hard."
Xuna said, shaking the bookmark in her hand under the light, and the star slipped on the rustic table of the Adventurer's Association.
"That's a dungeon that hasn't registered the final boss form yet, and you just accepted the job of opening it up..."
"From the 25th to the 29th floor, there are all insects related to nighttime haunting, and they all have properties such as ignition and explosion. The boss form of the dungeon queen is not difficult to guess. Moreover, regarding the explosion, I recently asked someone to calculate the updated data."
Xuna lightly finished the most difficult part of the dungeon strategy, "How to guess what the boss is like through the first few floors."
"What's more..." She took out the mint and turned it in a circle in her hand, "Don't you think I'm very lucky. It's like there's some kind of halo, and what I want and what I want to do often succeed at once?"
Isaac did not deny it.
Xuna does have the halo of "everything goes smoothly", but rather than being powerful, it's more like...
"Well... indeed, like the protagonist?"
"Yes, like the heroine."
"So, who is W? Why do you listen to him so much?"
Xuna preciously put the bookmark into the upper pocket of her jacket.
"According to the content of the letter, he should be a spoiled young master. He has a lot of theoretical knowledge and a grand dream of being an adventurer, but he has never stepped out of his own house."
"Huh?"
"Maybe his last name is Systrom."
"Isn't that the boss of our association's house..."
Issac didn't finish his words, and Shuona waved her hand.
"Just kidding. But..."
She opened the letter and licked her lips expectantly. Only then did Issac feel that she looked like a 14-year-old girl who matched her appearance.
"I feel...he is...quite cute?"
Chapter 12 "What would you do if I was killed?"
Systrom's house, at the door.
"Today is the day I bid farewell to my hometown where I have lived for more than ten years. I will eventually grow up and embark on the long road of studying."
"Fate has treated me with pain, and I will return it with grief, using my steel-like fangs and my tempered heart."
"The young man will eventually set sail, towards an unknown destiny and blue sky."
Standing in front of the carriage, Will looked at the huge Systrom family mansion behind him, feeling a lot of emotion.
Only Iel...
"Then, that young master... let me confirm, we... we really just came to the city to study, right?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Then, why does the young master dress like this!?"
"Oh, don't worry about it. This is a young man who left his hometown for the first time. That inner barrier."
-Will said, wearing a helmet and thick knee pads on both hands and feet.
"Then, why do we put armor on horses!?"
"Oh, don't worry about it. To open up a new path, it often requires the mud stepped on by heavy horse hooves."
-Will said, stroking the white colt wearing armor with heat resistance +10%.
"Then, why do we drive armored vehicles!?"
"Oh, don't worry about it. This is the family that sent me on a long journey. It gave me the most solid shield and made me not afraid of the hardships of the journey."
-Will said, pointing to the iron armored vehicle specially used for attacking the dungeon.
"Don't worry about it, Yi Ai'er. You should be used to it after so many years."
Aunt Susan said, patting Yi Ai'er on the shoulder.
"Yeah. Right...right, you have to convince yourself that what the young master does is the right thing!"
Iaier shook his ears and nodded, saying so.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was early spring, and the apple trees by the river had just sprouted new buds, forming swaying reflections on the rippling lake.
This road was the special trail for the Systrom family to enter the city, so it was deserted and calm.
But now, on this road, there was a slow-moving armored vehicle, pulled by a young and energetic white horse that was panting.
Will was wearing almost fully armed armor, sitting in the car, looking out the window, feeling a little hot.
But...
Iaier changed out of her maid outfit and put on a black dress.
The one-shoulder neckline of the dress just exposed her shoulders, and because she had just finished training, her shoulders were a little red.
The slightly low-cut neckline also highlights her well-developed breasts, which is very mature, but the small bow on the neck adds a bit of cuteness. The inside of the back of the dress is red, which makes this all-black dress more crazy.
Even Yiai's animal ears are hung with black bows.
Yiai repeatedly said that she would just go out in an ordinary maid outfit, but Will stopped her by saying, "After entering the city, you may have to accompany her to attend the school's social dance, so get used to it first."
Oh, in fact, Will chose this formal outfit for Yiai on this important day for his own selfish reasons.
Yiai's black little dress has a yandere vibe that seems to be about to take out a hatchet in the next second.
It's very black, he likes it.
Will is quite looking forward to what Yiai will be like in her first battle.
So he asked her to dress in a way that suits his imagination.
"Master... this road is so empty."
"Yes, of course. Most people don't know about the Systrom family's special transport road. It is usually used when sending important dungeon equipment to the city."
"Hmm... So the Systrom family is so powerful? This is a special one..."
"Ah, this is what you don't understand. Because of my dad... oh no, the master's new wave of institutional reforms for dungeon adventures, now we are probably the object that the royal family and various politicians want to curry favor with, perhaps at the top of the food chain."
"Ah... so hard to understand."
Iel tilted his head and ears.
Although Will is both a comedian and a cannon fodder, the Systrom family behind him is not at all.
Because the Systrom family, as a "businessman" who operates dungeon adventures and owns several large adventurer associations, is the one who controls the most resources and productivity in this world.
In the basic setting, in this world, the dungeon is an efficient and versatile "output place". For example, if the goods in the modern world are obtained through the labor of workers, then here, most of the raw materials, goods, and circulations are obtained by adventurers through exploring dungeons.
The raw materials, goods, and circulations found by dungeon exploration are much faster than those produced in the original world, but the risks are not small.
Therefore, here, the level of "productivity" depends on the efficiency and cost of exploring dungeons (especially the cost of human lives).
These dungeons that appear on the mainland for unknown reasons silently provide all kinds of raw materials for this world - whether it is mineral materials, wood, medicinal materials, or munitions, they can all be obtained from dungeons, and sometimes even finished products can be obtained directly.
For all countries, dungeons are important strategic resources.
This is also the reason for the rise of the Systrom family. More than ten years ago, the Systrom family discovered some tricks, and the efficiency of exploration increased sharply, while the risks were sharply reduced. In the future, the family will even develop related industries such as adventure team rankings and dungeon tourism around this.
This directly led to changes in power within the empire, especially the decline of the royal family, and also promoted a series of subsequent reforms in various countries.
It can be regarded as the "industrial revolution" in this world.
There must be some hidden plot behind this huge and mysterious family. Unfortunately, the original work had not been updated to this point before Will came here.
Now the only information about the entire Systrom family is this young master who will be killed by the slime...
Thinking, Will looked out the window.
He could already see the roof of the tallest building in the prosperous capital, which was an old-fashioned clock tower, with the spire gleaming with the afternoon sun.
In this case, the danger was probably approaching.
Will turned his head and looked at El.
"Yiel, it's okay anyway. Why don't I give you another test on a question that has never been taught in class or in books? It will test your on-the-spot performance."
"Okay, young master, I'll answer all your questions."
Will thought to himself that Yiel had indeed become a lot more lively, and he never expected that she was the obedient and cowardly maid in her previous life.
"Let's just think of me as the person you like - although I know it's quite difficult. Suppose...suppose a scenario like this."
"Um."
"Your young master is, after all, the young master of the System family. He will always encounter 'assassinations' in his life."
"Yes, I learned it in the maid's course."
Will thought to himself that the System family had indeed raised all fighting maids.
