After defeating the demon king in another world and returning to Japan, a dungeon appeared on the ground. - Chapter 46

Chapter 46

“What shall we use it for…?”

Sunday morning.

I have been thinking for more than an hour now, staring at the wad of bank bills in front of me.

What should I even spend this money on?

After years of living in poverty, I suddenly had such a large sum of money in my pocket, yet I didn’t know what to do with it.

The 2.5 million I had acquired in just one exploration.

Since then, my daily meals have become lavish enough to fill my stomach. However, nothing else in my life has changed.

I asked Miku if there was anything she wanted, but even her reply was the same, that she was happy just to be able to eat a full meal.

Although she is my younger sister, she has grown up modestly and without greed.

However, for my part, I felt that it would be a waste if I did not spend it on something.

So, I was in the middle of thinking about what kind of things I wanted.

“Ummm… maybe get ourselves a nicer apartment?”

I took another look around the shabby apartment I had lived in for years.

It was small, the walls were cracked here and there, and I could hear the footsteps of the people next door almost with no care in the world.

It’s so cramped that even a college student with no money could probably afford a better place to live, but then again, living in an apartment is like living in the metropolis.

So far, I don’t think I am inconvenienced.

Even Miku says she has no problem living here, and it takes a lot of time and money to move out.

That’s why I decided not to relocate.

“Well…I guess I’ll just continue to save up for now.”

After much thought, I finally decided to put the money into savings without forcing myself to waste it.

Let’s just keep unspent for now and when in the future, as I have more than enough, can spent on something at that time.

“All right…let’s go exploring again today, shall we?”

I put the money away in the cupboard and prepared to go exploring.

The last time I was in the dungeon was after school, so I couldn’t stay in the dungeon for very long, but today I can spend the whole day in the dungeon.

I’m going to hunt monsters, sell magic stones, and make a lot of money.

“Eh, Onii-chan…where are you heading?”

As I was leaving the apartment, Miku grabbed my shirt and held me back.

“Nn? Exploring, is something wrong?”

“Eeeh!? Are you okay with not looking at the TV!”

“Nn? TV…?”

“Un! It’s said that the capturing group is going to explore the second dungeon and challenge the boss of it’s 40th level…! That’s going to be on TV, or so it seems you know?”

“Nn? Is that so?

The capture group refers to the front-line explorers or clans that hunt monsters in the unexplored areas of the dungeon.

Currently, the most advanced dungeon in Japan is the Tokyo No. 2 Dungeon, with 39 levels being already conquered.

Today, the team exploring the second dungeon are going to challenge the boss of the 40th level, which will be covered on TV.

“Let’s watch it! It would be such a waste if we don’t!”

“Hummm… let’s see…”

This type of program, which broadcasts the explorers fighting monsters in dungeons in live, and are popular among the public to an unexpected level. And every time they broadcast, they record high viewer ratings.

In particular, when they show the combat footage of the capture team, the viewer rating goes up to 70% or even as high as 80%.

This time, since it seems to be a boss battle, the ratings might even go well over 80 percent.

Well, It’s not that I’m not interested.

However, I’m not sure if I want to watch it.

However, I’m not sure if I want to watch it.

The images of the new and uncharted territory may be new and even exciting to many people, but they are not something new for me. Since I know all about dungeons, moreover, the battles of those capture teams look rather look low-level to me.

I do not get any thrill watching them.

… However, when I look at Miku, and how she is all so thrilled about it, and also because of the huge sum I earned just yesterday, I am not in a bind to go and explore as well.

And then, when If I start a full-fledged exploration, I’ll probably have even lesser time to spend with Miku. So, I might as well spend at least today with her.

“Okay I get it. I will also watch it together.”

“Un! Let’s watch!”

And so, I decided not to go for exploring the dungeon today and rather watch the boss battle by the capture group on TV with Miku.
