Fighting to the point of punching each other is an everyday occurrence in the Demon King's Army.
After parting with Suela and the others, I returned to my room and sat on my computer in my room without receiving any attention the next day.
”Hmmm, what to do...
But that doesn't mean we're making a report.
What I'm making is a proposal.
Yesterday's fight was a one-sided kickback, so to speak, but that doesn't mean I don't have feelings for them.
If things keep going the way they are, the guys are either going to quit or get in trouble again.
If you want to quit, that's fine, but if this evolves into criminal-like interpersonal combat in a dungeon out of desperation, it's a bit of a problem.
The guarantee that you won't die if you attack can lower your human standards in these situations.
If more testers are added to the dungeon enemy, the survival of the organization, or even the existence of the testers, is in doubt.
We must move before we lose a profession that is doing so well.
Maybe we should talk to the supervisor or Suela before that happens, but there's something wrong with just going to talk to them without doing anything.
So, you have to come up with a couple of solutions on your own first, like this.
I can see the problem, but the ...... problem is too elementary.
The source of frustration that other testers may also have is probably narrowed down to these three points.
The first is that the income is not commensurate with the amount of hard work you put into the dungeon.
But even so, if you combine commission and monthly salary, you should be earning more than three times as much as a normal salaried worker.
If that becomes the norm, it's human to want more.
If you don't make good money, even if it's your fault, you'll be dissatisfied.
The second is the sense of frustration from not being able to attack as well as you can imagine.
At this stage of exploring how to capture and become stronger, the extra effort will definitely be worth it.
The inability to move efficiently due to it.
I guess I'm not able to divide it up against the fact that I can't do the job as I had imagined.
And third, the grass is blue next to us.
You're jealous of the fact that we're the only ones who are valued.
We're not quite there yet, but we're doing better than those around us, that's for sure.
That's certainly because of the help from the company, but it's the result of our own efforts.
Even if you ask me, I can say it proudly.
Judging from what he said yesterday, you didn't seem to be paying attention to the effort.
I've had similar experiences with ...... and wondered what to do about them.
When I was at my last company, the department that could do the job was suspected of not doing the job before respect.
The truth is that the story of my former company was just a gossip, and the department was calm because the senior person who could do the job was working hard and efficiently.
However, the moment he quit the department, it was a disaster, as soon as he broke up with his boss.
And this case is similar.
The difference is there was no reason for me to quit.
Now I could go on and on, but I've listed some of the details here, but they're beyond my control.
I can't give you money for your salary, but you have to earn it yourself.
I might be able to help you get stronger with advice and training, but it's a question of whether you'll listen to me honestly.
When it comes to jealousy, my involvement will make the conversation even more complicated.
It would be easier if I could come up with a quick solution to this problem, but my fingers have stopped at the content of the project.
If you push the cigarette in your mouth to the ashtray, a pile of cigarette butts will appear before your finger can move.
I have an idea for a recreational activity, but it's what's inside that matters.
I know what to do, but I haven't decided what to do.
I'm stuck and can't come up with a good idea.
At times like this
”Let's go to the dungeon.
Exercise is the only way to go.
Going to work (dungeons) for a change is also a funny thing, but the experience of being able to exert yourself to your heart's content is an unexpected release of stress.
Plus, if you can earn money, you can kill two birds with one stone.
Once I decided on that, I tentatively saved a draft of the proposal with only the title written on it, turned off my computer and quickly got ready for the day.
Unfortunately, it's a holiday and no one else is here today except me.
If you go to the party room or call on your cell phone, someone might catch you, but I can't ask you to come in on your day off.
After equipping my armor and mineral tree, I'll head straight for the dungeon entrance.
I thought I'd take on a dungeon I've never tried before for a change of pace, so I went to the Giant King's dungeon.
It's going to be quite a chore.
It's a natural fortress .
That's what it felt like to see the near precipitous mountain face that you could only look up and not see the top.
A towering fortress that made good use of the high mountainous terrain, which would hardly be considered a dungeon.
I'd heard of field-type dungeons that didn't use caves or underground, but I hadn't heard of a fort with a number of fortifications.
The cliffs were almost perpendicular to the ground, and the mountain trail, which would be the only way, was made to lead to the castle.
Challenging the cliff is the shortest way to get there, but the risk of falling and being attacked by monsters along the way is always present.
However, if you go to the mountain path where the foothold is secure and challenge it from the front, you are likely to be turned into a beehive by arrows from the fort.
The dungeon, which is difficult to attack and easy to defend because of its mountainous nature, presents a different set of worries than the one I mentioned earlier when I was making my proposal.
Let's go for it first.
The first thing to do is to grab the hilt of the mineral tree and run up the cliff to take a shortcut.
The mountain path was my choice because I sensed an obvious trap.
But, of course, we've already taken precautions against people acting like this.
There was a rumbling sound, and then a rock was falling down from above.
Ahead, a cyclops was continuing to work on the rock.
If you continue kicking up straight ahead, you'll inevitably come into contact with the rock.
”Well, it's not going to stop at a rock.
If this was a lump of iron or something, it would be a little annoying, but I'm not going to stop at a rock.
That's true.
I use the little dwell time I have to slice through the first rock and use it as a foothold to leap further up.
Seeing me, the Cyclopes take out their ballista and shoot arrows at me.
These arrows are the size of giants.
Each one is the size of a giant.
Considering the weight, gravitational acceleration, and rate of ejection, their power is understandable.
The sting won't be enough.
There's no escape from the cliff, though.
There's no way you can move around if there are foothold restrictions, even if you dodge to the left or right.
