The Death Mage That Doesnt Want A Fourth Time 8 (2/2)

The hero Berud had stood on the frontlines with the people ere forced to do battle against the Deht bravely Within ten days of coon and rescued a noblehter and the First Lady who had been captured

Within a ether with the Second Lady as a warrior Within half a year he had fought the Knights of Darkness that the De the Third Lady as a Priestess and prevailed And finally, after ten years, he defeated the De, even as Zakkard and the other heroes were lost, bringing peace to the world It is said that he and the other surviving heroes offered their wisdom to help rebuild what had been destroyed

Much of the heroes’ wisdoana, katakana and kanji that was the coe that eventually became the Amid Empire

And Balschreat First Emperor of the Amid Empire who appeared tens of thousands of years later, was a direct descendant of the hero Berud

「It sounds made-up and unpleasant」

Vandalieu closed the book that had been mixed in with the bandits’ treasure and threw it away violently

In La presses didn’t exist, every book was a written copy Therefore, they were quite high-class items

But Vandalieu didn’t see even a single copper coin’s worth of value in the tales written about the actions of Barud, the hero who had founded the Amid Empire, and the First Emperor Balschmidt

Firstly, the whole thing sounded like nonsense

The proof that the First Emperor of the Amid Empire was a direct descendant of the hero was incredibly questionable Surely there was no way to prove a relationshi+p with an ancestor who had lived a hundred thousand years ago The book had covered this up with stories about destiny, prophetic drea to the emperor

Secondly, it was unpleasant because it made Vandalieu feel envious

The hero Berud… He was probably known as Suzuki in japan He hadas soon as he arrived in Laon-slaying hero who had rescued the princess Within aup achievereat hero

TLN: Don’t ask ured this out, I have no idea

What was Vandalieu compared to that? He couldn’t help but to ask this question to himself

Fifteen months had passed since he was born The only member of the other sex that he had talked to was his own reat hero within ten years

Of course, the hero Suzuki probably endured hardshi+ps and suffering of his own; he had survived the battle with his life on the line, after all Even so, Vandalieu is all too aware of the difference between receiving a God’s blessing and being cursed by the God instead

「This is all Rodcorte’s fault as well」

『You’re right, it’s all this God Rodcorte’s fault But even so, I’m a little thankful It was that God who made you my child, Vandalieu』

「Mom」

His splintered heart began to heal a little Vandalieu reconsidered, thinking that perhaps he should at least be thankful to Rodcorte forDarcia his mother

But if it weren’t for Rodcorte’s curse, he would be able to use Death-Attribute Magic at the level that he had been using it just before he died for the second tiin He would be able to employ countless Golems freely, manipulate many spirits simultaneously, turn an entire lake of water into deadly poison or reverse the process, turning deadly poison into pure water If he had been able to do all these things, perhaps Darcia wouldn’t have had to die When he thought about that, any gratitude that he ht have felt towards Rodcorte was bloay

The carriage that had been proceeding along a side road to avoid being spotted suddenly stopped

「What is it?」

Due to his【Danger Sense: Death】ency situation such as being surrounded by eneic detected not only poisonous iven off by monsters and humans

Therefore, he shouldn’t be in a dangerous situation… or so Vandalieu thought as he poked his head out froround

「A gate? A base used by bandits… it’s a little too well-built to be so like that Is it some kind of ruins?」

As Vandalieu tilted his head sideways, it was Saate was

『Goshujin-saeon』

「A Dungeon?」

『Yes, it is a Dungeon』

Because Vandalieu was inside the carriage, he couldn’t see Sam, but he could hear his voice clearly

Dungeons They were originally breeding facilities created by the De to multiply his th Afterwards, Ricklent, the genie of tiic to turn them into places that humans could use to train and obtain materials

The basic principle behind their appearance was that when a certain place was corrupted with a certain a probability that a Dungeon would forreatly, and soeons that had appeared over a hundred thousand years ago still hadn’t been discovered yet

There were Dungeons that only consisted of one floor that couldn’t be distinguished from a normal cave, home to only weak monsters like Goblins, but there were also enoreons with over a hundred floors, crawling with high-rank h tih

And as the requireical power to contaeons existed only in Devil’s Nests…

「Is this place a Devil’s Nest?」

『Probably not If this were a Devil’s Nest, ould be seeing a lot eon that has appeared outside a Devil’s Nest』

As Darcia said, Dungeons for in normal forests and fields were rare, but not unheard of But in such cases, the Dungeons were often not very dangerous

But if left alone for too long, the e fro area into a Devil’s Nest

There were apparently continents in La oceans had beco numerous times

「So then there should be a lot of rass growing thickly in front of the gate, it seeht, let’s stop by and go inside」

Dungeons The fantasy-like sound to the word and the sense of adventure excited Vandalieu

Though the ones ould actually do the adventuring and fighting the monsters would be Bone Man and the other Undead

That couldn’t be helped, since he was still only fifteen months old

Around the tieon, Degan, the guildmaster of the Adventurers’ Guild in the town of Teroatching three adventurers glaring at each other with a troubled look on his face

The three people here were each a leader of an adventurer party that ell known here in Terow

Cashew, the leader of the D-class adventurers’ party, the『Wind Chasers』Barn, the leader of a sis』And Miranda, the leader of the『White Stars』

It was safe to say that none of the, and none of their abilities surpassed the D-class level However, in this modestly-sized commercial town of Terohere there were no Devil’s Nests nearby, they were top-class adventurers

In fact, they had repelled bandit attacks numerous times and overcome the explosive increase in the Kobold population They were known as heroes here in Terow

They had accepted a request to exterether and searched the forest near Terow, and had discovered a Dungeon on the way back

Only the members here, the town’s feudal lord and his aide knew about this, but Degan was ecstatic as this was a big opportunity to develop the town

Indeed, the Dungeon was dangerous If left alone, e from it and advance onto the town

But if adventurers were to venture into it from time to time to thin out the monster numbers, it was essentially a chicken that laid an unlis The fact that monsters spawned without limit meant that there was a limitless amount of raw materials to be obtained from them, as well as precious plants and ores that could only be found inside Dungeons Not to eons that could yield valuable ic items

Adventurers seeking this Dungeon would gather in the town, and in turn, old that the adventurers would spend would also gather here, and thus the toould develop

And if the Dungeon was cleared in this way, it would becoreater returns than the risk

With that said, there were also Dungeons in Lambda with only monsters such as Goblins that yielded only small amounts of raw materials and treasure boxes with poor contents, the kind of Dungeons that only caused trouble just by existing

Would this be one of those failures, or a great success? Most importantly, adventurers would need to be deployed into the Dungeon to detererous it is, and there was an unspoken understanding that the adventurers who had discovered the Dungeon would have the first rights to it

Of course, in cases where adventurers that were not hunters or otherwise not confident in their abilities discovered the Dungeon, they could sell the rights to explore the Dungeon first through the Adventurers’ Guild

In cases where ether, they often negotiated with ether

「We『Wind Chasers』will explore the Dungeon first!」(Cashew)

「What are you saying! We『Steel Wings』are more suitable for the task!」(Barn)

「Leave it to us, the『White Stars!』The rest of you can go and collect so!」(Miranda)

However, it see to a co them to join forces seemed hopeless

「This is a probleainst each other since the very start」(Degan)

For a long ti with one another for the title of the best adventurer group in the town However, they had a proper sense of ether to overcome the Kobold population problem in the past, but that was all

The Dungeon that had been discovered had no evidence that any monsters had wandered outside froeons that appeared outside of Devil’s Nests were generally not very dangerous and small in size

Therefore, there was no need to cooperate; any one party could take the Dungeon on without a problem

In fact, if the first exploration of the Dungeon was successful, the party that completed it would be viewed favorably by the Adventurers’ Guild and may even be able to increase their rank to C-class It was a chance for one party to surpass the other two

「We『Wind Chasers』havetraps! The best your party’s Thieves can do is conceal their presence and scout, hardly suitable for exploring a Dungeon!」(Cashew)

「What the hell are you saying, Cashew?! Your party has no Healers; exploring a Dungeon relying only on potions is too dangerous! In that regard, we『Steel Wings』have two Healers who can heal injuries, remove poison and cure diseases on the spot!」(Barn)

「What are you talking about? It seems that in short, you have a bad balance in members I’ll tell you this, we『White Stars』are a perfectly balanced party with one person on attack and one on defense, an Archer and a Thief, an offensive Mage and a Healer! You should leave the first exploration of the Dungeon to us!」(Miranda)

Seeing these three giving each other angry looks, with a fistfight that could break out at any ainst his eyebrows

「You three… we’ve been having this conversation for three days now」(Degan)

Perhaps this would be settled faster if a fistfight really did break out It took everything in Degan to resist the teest this
