“Ahh, I’m tired.”
Right after returning to the camp, Aira sets up a tent and I lie in it. I’m hungry too, but I’m more tired.
“Darling, are we going to stop for today?”
“…No, I might take a quick nap, but I want to be over with the goblins by the end of the day. If that message was sent to the whole dungeon, it might be crowded tomorrow.”
“Ah… That’s true.”
Maki, who was using her smartphone to contact the surface, raises her head.
“Shouta, I contacted my mother, and she says that message really was sent to the whole beginner dungeon. They are investigating how much of an effect it had, but apparently the newbies hunting on the first floor are having an easy time.”
“Eh, that’s nice. We haven’t seen any goblins on this floor since I beat that one, so we haven’t been able to check how weak they’ve become. If their levels went down, they might give less experience… I wonder…”
I mutter, and Aki, who disappeared right after we got back to camp, and Aira, who was dealing with the stuff we don’t need, come back.
“I’m back.”
“I have returned, master.”
“Welcome back. How were things on your end?”
“Given the amount I was selling, I negotiated at a fifty percent discount. If the other teams are having their drop rates increased, it was doubtful if they would buy it even at that price.”
“And transporting it isn’t free either.”
It’s not like everyone has a special bag like Aira’s.
“Where did you go, Aki?”
“You were mulling over it, so I went to check how much weaker the goblins around here have become. Their levels are the same, but their stats are ten percent lower.”
“Ooh. But don’t do anything dangerous when I’m not around.”
“Fufun. I thought you’d say that, so I had First Magnitude Star join me.”
“Then, well… I’ll thank Shuu later.”
“Geez. I’m pretty strong too, ya know?”
“But I can’t help but be worried.”
“…Well, it doesn’t feel bad knowing you care.”
Everyone’s here, so we have lunch. We’ve come back later than we thought, because of that unforeseen couple of battles, so it’s already half past one. But I get to fill my stomach with lunch made by them.
By the way, there’s a bit of orc meat in here, but since Aira only tells me about it after I eat it, it just tastes like meat. It has a nourishing effect uh… I feel blood gathering in one specific part of my body, but I guess since I only ate a bit, the effect isn’t that big.
I feel like I might see those things as nothing but food from now on…
“We can get food here, so it feels like we can stay here for a long time even if we don’t bring any.”
“But you need your vegetables. We should bring only that if nothing else. Although I can see that not being an issue for most people, since a lot of teams only have men.”
But wouldn’t that be bad in itself, if it made them all turned on?
“Even if we don’t stay here for long, a balanced diet is important.”
“I don’t think that’s going to be a problem in this team. Maki and Aira always make tasty meals.”
“Yes.”
“You really do need to grab them by the stomach.”
Aira looks smug, but she did grab me, so I can’t say anything.
“The only issue is that the smell when we cook might attract attention.”
“Yes… There is that. They might even curse me to death out of jealousy.”
“Rest easy. I brought a barrier magic item that blocks both smell and sound. We can get through the night safely and peacefully by using it.”
“I get smell, but… Sound?”
“Is there an issue?”
This maid is in heat twenty-four seven.
“Can’t we leave that for after when we go back home?”
“Oh? We can’t do it?”
“He’s not into it.”
“Too bad.”
They really do sound disappointed.
But I feel like I’ll have busy nights nonetheless, so I half give up.
“Anyway, I want to check today’s loot. How are we in terms of skills?”
“Here they are. Incidentally, we also have the ones leftover from the second floor.”
Aira starts lining them up on a table.
