Chapter 55
“Haa… somehow I feel completely exhausted…”
After dealing with Goto from the “Bronze Armor” clan, I remembered that I was going to head for dungeon exploration and made my way to the Explorer’s Center.
I never expected the day would come when a famous clan would take notice of me.
Although there have been many unavoidable situations lately, perhaps I exerted a bit too much of my powers.
To avoid drawing more attention from the “Bronze Armor” or other clans, I vow to be more modest in my activities as an explorer for a while.
“No quests for today also, it seems.”
Arriving at the Explorer’s Center, I changed from my uniform to attire suitable for dungeon exploration in the changing room.
Then, carrying my weapon and explorer’s card, I headed for the dungeon.
Can’t also take quests today as well.
It’s better to take on quests with clear completion criteria on weekends or other days when I can dedicate the entire day to exploration.
“Now then… let’s earn some money..”
Last time, I defeated the boss on the 10th floor, Troll, and earned a large sum of money.
As expected, defeating the boss monster would attract a bit too much attention, so today I decided to hunt the Orcs that appear on floors 7 to 9.
Orcs are monsters that can fetch tens of thousands of yen for their magic stones, moreover they are strong enough for even intermediate explorers to hunt them alone without any trouble.
Today’s goal is to hunt multiple number of Orcs.
If possible, I’d like to earn at least hundred thousand yen by the end of the day.
With such thoughts in mind, I used my explorer’s card to open the door blocking the entrance to the dungeon, stepping inside.
“Guggghhu!!”
“Gigigiiii!!”
“Fire!”
“Gugyaaaaa!!!”
While taking out the Goblins which occasionally occur and try to attack me, I quickly descended down to the 7th floor without stopping.
In order to avoid any suspicion, as I don’t know who might be watching, I’m only using my flame magic, which is considered my skill.
Today’s target, Orcs, should be easily dispatched with just flame magic.
“Hm?”
It was at that moment that screams could be heard from deep within the dungeon.
“Uwaaaaaa!!”
“Stay back!!”
Two explorers were desperately running towards me with a look of desperation on their faces.
It seemed they were being attacked by monsters.
“Gugoooo!!!”
Attacking the two was… the Goblin King, the highest-ranked Goblin.
With a low growl, it pursued the two who were running away.
“Are you… perhaps injured?”
Upon closer inspection, one of the explorers was running as if dragging his leg.
It seems he’s injured to a degree, not in a condition to fight.
Needless to say, they need help.
“Hey you!! Help us!!”
“Eeekkk!!”
As soon as they saw me, the two pleaded for help.
“Alright. Leave it to me.”
I positioned myself to shield the two and faced the Goblin King.
“Gogoooo!!!”
The Goblin King, having met a new target came and swung its massive arm at me.
“Fireball!”
I unleashed a Fireball, a basic fire magic spell, with more magical power than usual.
*Bashh!!
The Fireball flew forcefully and blew off the Goblin King’s head.
The Goblin King, now headless, wobbled for a moment before falling to the ground with a thud.
“Phew.”
I let out a short breath.
It’s been a while, but it worked out well. Modified magic.
Normally, a basic attack magic like Fireball wouldn’t have the power to kill a Goblin King.
However, by devising the spell and channeling more magical power into it, the magic’s power increases by more than double.
This is a technique still undeveloped in Arcadia, a unique form of magic known only to my master.
“Now then… are you two ok? Are there any more injuries?”
Having slain the Goblin King, I turned around to face the two explorers.
“The Goblin King… defeated in one blow…?”
“Amazing…”
The two explorers were staring at the corpse of the Goblin King in astonishment.
