Chapter 152: Loot and What to do from now on (1/2)

After meeting up with Jeanne, we decide to confirm our loot before leaving the dungeon.

This is our first dungeon exploration today. We could just sell them all, but it is also important to confirm just what and how much we got.

“It was only this much for me. Black stones only appeared rarely.” (Jeanne)

Jeanne defeated Skeletons, Skeleton Soldiers, and Bone Knights.

Skeletons and Soldiers had Transparent Stones.

Transparent Stones and Black Stones from the Bone Knight.

“This must be a Dark Spirit Stone. Actually, this is my first time seeing a Dark Stone, but there should be no mistake about it.” (Hikaru)

“Really? Even though you use Dark Spirit Abilities?” (Jeanne)

“There’s no monster that drops Dark Stones in the 2nd and 3rd Floor after all…” (Hikaru)

Dark Stones can be used for Create Undead, so I would like to keep them as much as possible. I would like to raise the proficiency of my Ability itself, and Bone Knights should be able to serve as tanks when needed. Or more like, an undead of an undead feels weird.

“I got quite a bit.” (Hikaru)

This time I take out the Spirit Stones I looted from the Shadow Storage.

80% of the time, the stones that Goblins and Orcs drop are transparent. Ogres would drop Earth Spirit Stones 50% of the time.

Mantis are Wind or Chaotic. It might even drop transparents, but not from what I know.

There should be more than 100 here, but there are fewer colored ones than I expected.

However, there’s a Chaotic Stone from the Mantis, so it should be quite the earning with only that alone. It can serve as a trump card, so I don’t really want to sell it though.

“…Wow, this much in just today alone?” (Jeanne)

“I am used to the 2nd Floor after all.” (Hikaru)

“Even with that……no, you were the No.1 man in the viewership. You can do this much, huh.” (Jeanne)

“Stop that. I gathered viewers in order to revive Nanami. It is not like I wished for it.” (Hikaru)

“I didn’t say that in a bad way. I simply reconfirmed here that you have the ability to make that possible, Kuro.” (Jeanne)

1,000 Chosen at the beginning is by no means a low number.

Becoming 1st within those really does require you to fight monsters and win results in drawing viewers the most.

Jeanne and I are both battle types, and fighting monsters normally being our main content might be something natural in a world like this that is similar to a fantasy game.

“And so, how much would all of this go for? If this doesn’t end up being at least 3 silver, our livelihood will be rough.” (Jeanne)

“You still didn’t know the market price of Spirit Stones, huh, Jeanne… Well, I myself don’t know it too well though. It is most likely around 1 gold for everything.” (Hikaru)

“G-Gold?!” (Jeanne)

1 gold is around 40 silver in the current rate though. The rent is 28 silver, so we have suddenly earned more than our rent.

(It is natural for Jeanne to get surprised.) (Hikaru)

1 gold is probably around 800,000 yen.

…Of course, it varies depending on the property, so I calculate all from a few instances, but anyways, 1 gold is an abnormal amount of money that is enough to live on for 1 month.

After we confirmed our loot, we exited the dungeon.

To the guild that’s 5 minutes on foot from the dungeon.

They help out in the selling of the Spirit Stones, so I stored the Dark Spirit Stones and the Mantis Chaotic Spirit Stone in the Shadow Storage.

We sold the remaining half and half.

*Whisper whisper*

“Oi, isn’t that…”

*Whisper whisper*

When we entered the guild, it was crowded to an incomparable degree from the time before.

The line for selling the loot seems like it will take time too…

(Aren’t they gossiping here…?) (Hikaru)

I can feel gazes.

I feel as if the other explorers are looking at me… Am I just being too self-conscious?

Am I getting fear of gazes or something…?

But when I strained my ears, I could hear familiar words…

{Isn’t that guy the one that partied with Rifreya-san?}

{He is already with a different woman…?}

{I heard he defeated a Demon Lord too…}

{Love-Love Twin Birds, right…?}

{What’s that?}

{Love-Love Twin Birds is the party name.}

{You kidding me, right…?}

They were clearly gossiping about us.

“Aren’t you famous, Kuro. We really should have made the name of our new party Love-Love Twin Birds. The name has already spread this much…” (Jeanne)

“Please stop… I didn’t know either… Why do I have to suffer this…?” (Hikaru)

They are talking in a really low voice, but my body capabilities must have been enhanced from my Tier going up, I could hear them completely.

Or more like, I always asked Rifreya to sell the things and didn’t enter the guild myself, but did we stand out more than I thought?

I was partying with that Rifreya, so I do understand it to a certain extent, but being famous for a weird name is beyond unpleasant.
