Chapter 222

I rode a carriage that was arranged by Eric and spent the whole day in the city of Flint .



 

By the way, this time I went by myself .

I didn’t want to risk injuring my companions, especially when we’re facing a Dungeon Master, thus I decided as such .

 

What I felt as soon as I entered the city was that the people were all high in tension .

There were laughters here and there .

It was as if the whole city was a bar in itself .

 

As I stuck my head out of the carriage, the image which I had for the city was precisely what I thought .

The residents of the city were drinking alcohols and toasting around .

Naturally, you would want some snacks while drinking alcohols .

 

Thus, there are stalls selling snacks everywhere .

 

Residents were buying snacks, drinking alcohol, and laughing at each other’s jokes, twas the atmosphere of the city .

 

[Are you Ryouta・Satou-sama?]

[Yes?] (ryouta)

 

As I was being called out from the side, I turned my gaze .

It was a boy in his teenage years looking up at the carriage .

His hair was so short that he didn’t need to take much care of it, and his cheeks are littered with freckles commensurate with the year .

 

[And you are?] (Ryouta)

[My name is Tail・Angus . Eric-san has spoken to me to guide Ryouta-san . ] (Tail)

[I see . ] (Ryouta)

 

As I thought for a moment, I jumped off the carriage .

 

[What seems to be the problem?] (Tail)

[I’m tired of sitting . I wish to see the dungeon, can you guide me there?] (Ryouta)

[Of course . ] (Tail)

 

After whispering something to the rider of the carriage, the empty carriage went off .

 

[I’ll guide you now . Which one would you like to go?] (Tail)

[Which…one?] (Ryouta)

[There are two dungeons in Flint called Lanthanum and Cerium, which one would you like to go to?] (Tail)

[Is that so… . Well, Lanthanum then . Eric-san was the one who asked to go there, so before the Dungeon Master appears, I want to scout the area . ] (Ryouta)

[I understand . ] (Tail)

 

Tail began leading me, and I followed behind .

 

While crossing the city, I could see people drinking wherever I go .

Even though there aren’t many gathered around together, but there are still quite a few who are drinking .

 

[They sure can drink a lot . ] (Ryouta)

[Yes, it’s Flint after all . Ah, please look at that . ] (Tail)

[Hm? That well?] (Ryouta)

 

As mentioned, I saw a well along the road .

There aren’t any interesting features, but a middle-aged man approached from one side and poured water out of the well .

He then placed his mouth on where the water poured out .

 

[Phew!] and he drank it all at once .

 

[Wait a second, is water supposed to look like that?] (Ryouta)

[It’s actually beer . ] (Tail)

[Beer?] (Ryouta)

[There are abundant of alcohols being sold in Flint . So, low-priced drinks that aren’t for sale in other cities are now free to drink here . ] (Tail)

[What a great city . ] (Ryouta)

 



I was lost for words .

Getting to drink beer from the well for free .

It reminded me about the Kashiwa prefecture where orange juice would come out when you open the faucet . (TLN: I have no idea if that’s true or not)

 

[Basically you treat alcohol like water in other cities right . ] (Ryouta)

[That’s right . There really are lots of missed alcohols . ] (Tail)

[Missed?] (Ryouta)

[The higher the drop rate, the higher the quality the alcohol is . If it’s low, then it’ll be cheap alcohol . ] (Tail)

[Ah, I see . ] (Ryouta)

 

In other words, it’s like getting air and water in other dungeons, or non-standard vegetables that are not for sale .

Well, with my Drop S, I’m sure I can get a high quality alcohol .

 

I’m really looking forward to what kind of thing would appear .

 


[Ah, if we go to the dungeon, you can buy that as well . ] (Tail)

 

Tail stopped in front of a tool shop .

He then pointed at an empty label glass bottle .

 

[What’s that?] (Ryouta)

[Have you used a cargo box before?] (Tail)

[Oh . ] (Ryouta)

 

Since I know about the Pandora Box, it should be similar to that .

The moment you defeat a monster and it drops something, it would suck the drop into the box .

 

Using that, Margaret sold his [Princess Margaret’s Air Box] .

 

[This is a Flint’s special version . If you use it, it would add a ranking to the dropped alcohol . ] (Tail)

[How is it displayed?] (Ryouta)

[The rank would be A B C D E F… . as such . ] (Tail)



[I see . ] (Ryouta)

 

I bought about five bottles for the time being .

 

[We have arrived at Lanthanum . ] (Tail)

[A dungeon that only drops brewed alcohols . ] (Ryouta)

[Yes . ] (Tail)

 

I was a little surprised when I entered the dungeon .

I’ve went into various dungeons so far, but this is clearly different .

This place is like making fun of how dungeons looks like .

 

Lanthanum Dungeon, underground first floor .

The inside looks like a ninja house .

 

There are japanese-style rooms where adventurers are fighting monsters .

Even the monsters are different .

 

[… . . It’s foot soldiers . ] (Ryouta)

[Yes, there are the monsters of the first floor, flaming foot soldiers . ] Tail answered with a complicated smile .

 

The appearance of the monster looked like those foot soldiers of the warring age .

The scene of adventurers fighting in a Japanese-style mansion reminded me of a final stage battle where they break into the castle tower .

 

The only difference is that the monsters are burning throughout their body, and the spear that they are using is also burning .

 

[What’s wrong?] (Tail)

[Ah no, I was just surprised by the monsters . ] (Ryouta)

[I see . ] (Tail)

 

Tail was convinced for some reason .

I tried to calm down, then took out my gun .

 

One hand, I was holding onto my revolver, and the other the bottle .

 

First, the bullet isn’t a normal bullet, but the Growth Bullet .

It has been upgraded to a level that can finally replace the normal bullets .

 

I aim at the monsters… . . in the middle of the foot soldiers and fired .

 

One of them tried to approach me, but was shot and staggered .

I further aimed and fired, until the final blow and it was defeated .

 

It isn’t as strong as I expected it to be .

 

As soon as it disappeared, the bottle was sucking up the liquid .

Not only that, the blank label displayed [Rank: A] .

 

As I thought .

After all, my Drops are all S Rank, so obviously it’s gonna be high rank .

I wasn’t surprised, it’s more like a normal reaction .

 

However when I turned around and looked at Tail, he was lost for words .

 

[What’s wrong Tail?] (Ryouta)

[C-Can you let me see that bottle . Is it really a bottle that is Rank A!?] (Tail)

[What’s wrong with it?] (Ryouta)

[What’s wrong? What do you mean what’s wrong! High-ranked alcohols are few in drops . ] (Tail)

[Eh?} (Ryouta)

[Even if a person has all A Rank Drops, Rank A bottles usually take… . . many times… . . but to fill it in one go… . . ] (Tail)

 

Staring at the bottle, Tale kept repeating his words .

Apparently……I didn’t know how this works .
