Chapter 346

(346) To the Advanced Dungeon

Translator: Tseirp

 

 

“I’ll state this first, the basics of creating soy sauce – – creating yeast is more akin to farming than it is to cooking . After all, yeasts are living organisms . ”

 

Borrowing a room in Suzuki’s home, the homunculus Neete was having a lecture on the manufacturing of soy sauce that they had failed to recreate for many years .

I could have explained the method to manufacture soy sauce as well but I only knew the ordinary method of creating it and didn’t have confidence in answering questions .

So I called Neete from My World . Actually, Pionia was more knowledgeable but she’s a hikikomori after all . She won’t exit My World at all .

Sheena No . 3 had knowledge too but Suzuki had met her and seen her death so by the method of elimination it was Neete .

 

“Carol is amazing . I didn’t expect her to stumble upon an apprentice from a sprout shop within the town . ”

 

Suzuki praised Carol . By the way, sprout shops seem to refer to yeast shops .

Neete’s existence was set as a sprout shop apprentice who was taught by a transmigrator who worked in a yeast shop in Japan and we retained her name .

 

“What surprises me is the number of people . I thought at most three or four would gather but I didn’t expect these many . ”

 

There were up to 50 people . And I was equally surprised that Suzuki’s house could accommodate 50 people .

Everyone was feverishly taking memo of what Neete said .

There seemed to be some who looked like Japanese among them but the majority of the people were residents of this world .

 



“Among the Japanese who transmigrated to this world, creating soy sauce and rice were the two major themes . Among them, rice-making was somehow realized by the Demon Lord Army 300 years ago so now some amounts of it go around albeit at a low quantity . The taste is inferior to Japanese rice as well . ”

 

I heard about that too .

Well, someday I’ll act as though it was a coincidence and send him some seedlings .

 

“By the way, Suzuki . What happened to Jofre and Elize . ”

 

I didn’t see them yesterday at dinner and neither at today’s breakfast .

Weren’t they investigating the interior of the house? I imagined it would take at most an hour .

 

“Eh? They didn’t tell Kusunoki-kun either? I was convinced that Kusunoki-kun knew . ”

“ … By the way, what about Centaur?”

“It ate about half of my stockpiled food after dinner and breakfast . ”

 

Suzuki’s home food stock seemed to have taken a large loss .

 

“In that case, they wouldn’t have left town . Just where are they?”

“Hn- perhaps they found a hidden passage in this house and are investigating it . Apparently, there is quite a complex structure below my house that was there before I built my house . According to the records, the structure was made centuries ago . ”

“Why would you construct a home at such a location?”

 

There’s no helping it, I guess I’ll save them with that method again .



I looked at Carol and said .

 

“Carol, I have a request – -“

 

She always received any difficult task I request of her with a smile . This time she had a smile as usual .

But I probably didn’t mistake that her smile looked a little cramped .

 

“ … We will need 500 tomatoes for the transaction . 300 as advance payment, 200 for success reward …”

 


Carol had imagined that we would ask Centaur to look for Jofre and Elize and had negotiated .

But the price was greater compared to before .

In actual fact, I anticipated something like this happening so I kept a large number of tomatoes in my item bag but it was exactly 500 pieces .

Was that Centaur actually able to accurately ascertain the contents of my item bag?

Upon passing it 300 tomatoes, Centaur consumed it in an instant . Just as though it was a magic trick .

Then it walked .

Its destination was the warehouse in the garden . After opening the lock, there were stairs that led underground .

Just as Suzuki predicted, those two actually went underground .

“Then I’m relieved . ”

 

I left the remaining tomatoes with Suzuki .

 

“What do you plan to do next?”



 

Suzuki asked . There were still a few days until the book sale .

We could tour the town and preview the book sale venue but I was worried about the frenzy curse after all .

In order to dispel the curse, you either have to make the person drink a Dispel Curse Potion or cast the Dispel spell . Only a couple of people were capable of using that spell in the world and a Practitioners level 80 was required to master it .

 

“Erm, is there a dungeon in Mallegory?”

“Yup, there are three . Dungeon meant for beginners, intermediate and advanced users . ”

 

Ooo, so there are three .

Just like Florence .

 

“Then, I’ll send Neete-san to her inn after her lecture is over and then head to the advanced dungeon . Haru and Carol, you guys want to tag along too?”

“Yes, I look forward to it . ”

“Carol will work hard too . ”

 

The two of them responded, showing their resolution .

In particular, Haru seemed extremely happy . She probably likes dungeon crawls . The dungeon crawl in Goats Rocky was very short and the monsters didn’t put up a challenge so she probably felt it was unsatisfactory .

 

“The dungeon is located at the end of the magic tool lane at Magic Street . There are street signs around town so I don’t think you will get lost but would you like me to prepare a map?”

“Don’t worry . Carol knows the town’s dungeon locations as well as the tourist attractions, public facilities such as the Adventurers Guild and Mercenary Guild, highly-rated restaurants, evacuation sites in case of disasters, and hotels with beautiful night views . ”

 

As expected of Carol . But why did she look out for hotels with beautiful night views? We stay in Suzuki’s home at night after all .

 

“I gathered information on the monsters that appear in the advanced dungeon last night . The advanced dungeon monsters are mainly magical creatures . ”

 

So Haru went to investigate too . Did she anticipate that I would suggest going there or was Haru going to suggest if I didn’t?

 

“Magical creatures?”

“Slime, gargoyles, and Golem . Also, living armor and type A mimics . Monsters categorized as those who move using magical power . ”

“Type A mimics?”

“Mimics have type A and type B . Type A are monsters that mimic treasure boxes while type B are the type that hides within the treasure boxes set up in the dungeon . Incidentally, they generally take the shape of treasure boxes but some mimic the shape of jars too .

 

Haru explained smoothly .

So there are different kinds of mimics .

 

“Do mimics drop small medals?”

“No, mimics are not rare monsters so they will not drop Rare Medals . ”

“Figures . ”

 

I said with a wry smile .

Incidentally, Neete’s soy sauce making course greatly exceeded the scheduled ending time and in the end, it didn’t end until the afternoon .

Because of that, our departure was delayed until after lunch instead .
