25 CHAPTER XI -- EXPLAIN DUNGEON (1/2)

After a quick dash to the castle, thanks to my uncle's mad dash, we left Shelley and I was led to the emperor.

”Excuse me, sir. I've brought Leo.

When I entered the room, I saw the emperor sitting at his desk, working on his papers.

Oh, good job. And good to see you again, Leo?

It's been a while.

You haven't seen the emperor since your tour of the Devil's Forest?

I'm glad to hear that Leo is feeling better.

I'm sorry to have worried you.

Leo, you've grown up so much in the last few years.

Is that right?

It's not supposed to be?

Yeah, you look like a man who's been through a lot.

Oh, really?

Well, Leo, you've been through a lot growing up, haven't you?

Yes. I think we're making progress.

Yeah, I think I've definitely grown in mind, body and status: ....

''Well, then can I quickly ask you a question about the dungeon?''

Yes. I'm fine.

You can't run away from this anymore.

Okay, Damien, who knows the dungeon, will ask you a few questions.

Okay. So, first of all, can you tell me who the bosses are from one to forty?

'All right. The fifth floor was the Goblin King, the tenth floor was the Orc King, the fifteenth floor was the Elder Trent, the twentieth floor was the Cyclops, the twenty-fifth floor was the Cerberus, the thirtieth floor was the Kuro Ogre, the thirty-fifth floor was the Basilisk, and the fortieth floor was the Rock Bird.

They're all rare bosses!

Huh? Really?

'Grandpa said it at the beginning too, but it was true~'

I knew I was lucky.

That's right. When I challenged the boss on the 40th floor, it was a demon that was nothing more than a big cockatrice.

'Yeah~ I feel like I've struggled with the Rock Bird's wind magic.

Yeah, he must have been struggling.

Okay, so tell me the bosses and monsters that came out of the building after that until the 50th floor.

The uncle took notes and asked his next question.

'Let's see: ..... As I recall, there were traps coming out of the 41st floor, and it was hard to beat the gargoyles while being alert for them.

That one was really hard to proceed: ....

Oh, by the way. I don't know how you managed to get through that place. I gave up on that one because of all the traps. .....

That's because of some items I made.

In fact, I don't think we'd be moving on without it.

What item have you built?

Simply put, it's an item that tells you where the traps are.

'That's .... That's very useful.

Yeah, I know. I'd be dead without it.

Thank you so much for Wannatteras.

I really need to change my country's attitude towards creation magic.

The emperor, who was listening to us, crossed his arms and nodded his head as he said that .

Indeed, this world would be a much richer place if you changed your mind about creation magic: ....
