Chapter 154
Teruru Dungeon, 6th floor .
Dinner will be curry, was what Emily said, so I went over to the Teleportation Room to gather some potatoes .
Even though it was night time, there were still some adventurers who were searching for monsters in the 6th floor .
While walking for a while, a monster spawned beneath my leg just in time .
It was the Parent-Child Slime .
It’s characteristics was a huge Slime with several small slimes, as if a parent taking their children for a walk in a park .
The more [children] you defeat, the more your drops increases if you defeat the [parent] Slime the last .
Just so you know, even though it’s called the [Parent-Child Slime], it’s still 1 entire body .
Though it’s called children, but rather it’s closely resembled to its limbs or hair .
A curry for six, and since we wanna keep it [curry for 2 days], it’s better to get around 10 person worth of potatoes .
While thinking as such, I took out my revolvers, around the corner there was a guy who was already attacking the Parent-Child Slime .
[Oi, that’s my… . . ]
The hands that was stretched stopped when I heard the loud voice that was directed towards me .
The man that was going after the Parent-Child Slime looked like he was about to die . His face looked so pale even when we’re inside a dungeon .
He looked like a Zombie Salaryman that OT-ed for 3 nights in a row, but not as bad as a monster itself .
His attack missed, and the monster countered by knocking him, sending him flying towards a nearby wall .
He would stop moving at this rate .
I’ll obviously pursue the Parent-Child Slime, but this time I went from the side and attack .
I fired a normal bullet at it . Then defeating about 10 plus child Slimes, I went for a full swing body blow on the parent slime .
Though the body of the Parent Slime was as hard as steel after defeating 10 of its children, but I was still able to defeat its concrete like body .

[U… . . n . ]
[You finally up . ] (Ryouta)
[… . . This is! ?]
Finally waking up, he sat up and surveyed his surroundings in surprised .
[It’s the 6th floor of Teruru . We didn’t move anywhere . ] (Ryouta)
[Did I lose consciousness… . . ? How many hours did I pass out?]
[Around 5 minutes?] (Ryouta)
[Ku, that long… . . can I still make it?]
With a bitter face, the man tried to get up .
However, as he tried to get up, he’d became dizzy and plop down on the ground again .
[Don’t push yourself . It looks like you didn’t sleep for days . I can tell just by looking at your complexion . ] (Ryouta)
[If I don’t push myself, I wouldn’t be able to make it . ]
The man whispered as he tried to get his body up again, but his posture was weird and he couldn’t get up properly .
That’s obvious, I was once that kinda person .
Having OT-ed for a few days, the harshness of it gave a relap to my body, and my body was reaching its limits .
No matter how much he tries, he won’t be able to get up .
After trying for a few times, the guy gave up .
He crossed his legs while sitting down, and his shoulders drooped .
[So it’s impossible… . ]
[What exactly happened to you? If you’re alright with it, mind telling me what’s up?] (Ryouta)
[… . . ]
The man looked at me, and sighed as he talked .
[I’m Leon from the Joel Family . To be honest, since 1 week ago, our boss Joel took a job from someone, and the contents were to deliver potatoes at a specific date . ] (Leon)
[Fumu . ] (Ryouta)
Upon receiving a request, you’ll need to deliver said numbers within the deadline .
I’ve also sent watermelons to Ena’s parents house, also giving the Gourmet Eric some bamboo shoots occasionally .
It was a so-called custom-made production order, which wasn’t common in this world .
[And because of the boss’s mistake, we had to cover 10 times the number of the original amount . ] (Leon)
[10 times? Isn’t that too unreasonable?] (Ryouta)
I looked around closely, and saw that they were others that had a bad complexion like Leon .
I wonder how many were caught up with this mess, and most of them were exhausted while resting against the wall .
[The boss you’re talking about… . . is it the girl over there?] (Ryouta)
[No, the boss isn’t here . ] (Leon)
[Huh?] (Ryouta)
I was shocked as I gazed at Leon .
[Boss’s Vegetation drop is low, so we have to deal with Shikuro Dungeon’s drops . ] (Leon)
[Which means… . . ] (Ryouta)
From my eyes, Leon already knew what I wanted to say as he bitterly laughed .
[It’s boss’s clumsiness . I seriously can’t stand it, that boss . Always making a mistake somewhere, and when she makes a mistake, she’ll head over to Selen and hunt for meats slowly . ] (Leon)
Leon greatly grumbled .
The higher ups clumsiness, what’s more, the boss was taking her own sweet time which causes even more problems .
What can I say… . . this is… . .
[Hey, how much more do you need?] (Ryouta)
[Eh?] (Leon)
[What’s the time limit on this? How much more do you need?] (Ryouta)
[And what benefit would I gain once you hear it?] (Leon)
[Just answer my (god damn) question . ] (Ryouta)
The time it took to explain was regrettable, and Leon reluctantly answered and wondered whether it was even worth it .
[There’s barely enough time . The amount… . . around half a million Piro . ] (Leon)
[Alright . ] (Ryouta) (TLN: Good guy Ryouta saving the day again)
I surveyed around the place, and found a Parent-Child Slime that nobody was attacking .
I readied my revolver, and reloaded bullets .
[Hey, what are you trying to do?] (Leon)
[Just leave it to me . ] (Ryouta) (Wonder why people don’t recognize him)
Leaving the annoying Leon behind, I started hunting for the Parent-Child Slime .
Firing at all of the child slimes surrounding it, I made good use of my double revolver, firing relentlessly .
With the normal bullets flying everywhere, the child slimes were easily cleaned off .
Then, the highest limit of the Parent Slime could harden—–it needed 5 bullets before I could defeat the Parent Slime .
[Repetition . ] (Ryouta)
I fired .
The Parent Child was instantly killed, and huge chunks of potatoes dropped .
[I’ll leave that to you to pick all of it up . I’ll go around and kill more . ] (Ryouta)
[You’re… . . don’t tell me… . ?] (Leon)
The time for Leon to respond was also disappointing .
Storming around inside the dungeon, anytime I spotted a Parent-Child Slime, I would defeat all the child slime before using Repetition to defeat it to maximize the amount of potatoes .
Repeating the same process at the maximum speed nonstop, in around half an hour, I have collected half a million Piros worth of potatoes .
☆
Shikuro Dungeon, I saw Leon’s friends carrying the huge amounts of potatoes away .
As there was a limit to their manpower, I had to use my Infinite Recovery Bullets on them from time to time .
Leon then see them off .
[You really helped us a lot . Uhmm… . . ] (Leon)
[Names Ryouta . ] (Ryouta)
[That Ryouta Family, RYOUTA! ?] (Leon)
He was shocked beyond belief . He twisted and mumbled to himself .
[I see… . . I’m sure your friends are really fortunate . ] (Leon)
[Anyways, you should stay away from that boss . Based on my experience, those sorts of unreasonable requests would get way worse as time goes by… . . A true convictor . ] (Ryouta)
[… . . ]
Leon didn’t answer me . Though based on his expression he might’ve knew deep down .
[Well anyways, I have no rights on saying anything, I’m just saying to think it through . ] (Ryouta)
After saying that, I head back to the dungeon .
My friends were waiting for me, and I’m sure the curry is almost done .
Going down all the way to the 6th floor, I went back using the Teleportation Room .
[Aah, wait for a minute . ] (Leon)
Leon called after me .
[Anyways thanks for helping me!] (Leon)
[Yeah no probs . ] (Ryouta)
Shaking hands with him, I returned back to the dungeon .
