Bannou “Murazukuri” Cheat de Otegaru Slow Life ~Mura desu ga Nani ka?~ Chapter 313

Published at 26th of July 2023 05:00:22 AM

Trade within and with those outside of the village was thriving, and the number of people visiting the village was also steadily increasing. A lot of that was probably thanks to our railway system being put in place in various places.

Among those that visit us, there was a non-negligible number of adventurers. Their main goal naturally was the dungeon in our village.

“Thanks to Luke, I have more dungeon points than I know what to do with!”

Ahri, the fairy who ruled over that dungeon, said so with a little snort.

“So recently, mostly to entertain myself, I have been building lots of areas in places where they would go unnoticed!”

Ahri then showed me a few of the hidden areas she built according to her whims. One of them had its whole floor be filled with protrusions much like a pincushion, making me wonder how anyone would ever get across. There was also an area that was an endless series of holes of about 1 meter in diameter.

Their common factor was that each one would frustrate any challenger, to say the least.

Despite being a dungeon master, Ahri had no sense at all when it came to balancing her dungeon. We always had to discuss her dungeon's design together.

“Oh well, I don't think many people will enter these places anyway.”

Her dungeon back when we first found it only had 2 levels, but it now boasted over 50.

“The adventurers say they have never seen a dungeon as large as this before.”

“Fufun! As the dungeon master, those words pleases me greatly!”

By the way, the deepest level anyone had reached was the 42nd floor. This was achieved by Alec-san's party…or rather, the honor would have belonged to them had the village's hunting group led by Selen and assisted for this mission by Gori-chan didn't reach the 50th floor. To be beaten by the hunters who didn't usually venture into dungeons, Alec-san and his party were considerably vexed.

As could be guessed, adventurers weren't the only ones challenging the dungeon. The hunters and the village's guards were making use of it as training grounds. And recently, even the soldiers of nearby territories were doing so too. Even the kingdom's army commanded by Raul would sometimes visit as well. The ordinary villagers challenged the dungeon too.

“Oi, look. Those ladies, they couldn't be those women, could they…”

“You mean those women who, despite not being adventurers, managed to make it all the way to the 30th floor?”

“Yeah. Based on their looks though, they seem nothing more than ladies who came to gossip.”

“But there are only four of them. Weren't there supposed to be five?”

“One of them seems to be on maternity leave.”

“Maternity leave…”

In the open space in front of the dungeon entrance, a certain party was attracting the attention of the adventurers nearby. This was the 5-member (although one of them was on maternity leave) party composed of only women from the village. They called their party [the Ladies' Association].

“We've got these fighting-type Gifts, so we might as well make use of them.”

The one to make that claim was Barbarsan, the leader of party. She had the [Greatsword Techniques]. She was the mother of two sons and 1 daughter, but right now, she had a large sword hanging on her back.

“True. Luckily, there's a dungeon so close to our homes, so it almost feels like some kind of part-time job.”

The one to liken conquering the dungeon to a part-time job was Polan-san. She had the [Yellow Magic] Gift. She, who had one son and 3 daughters, apparently specialized in launching stones like they were bullets and making them land right in the middle of a monster's brows.

“What should I do for dinner, I wonder.”

The one racking her brain on what dinner should be was Amelisan. She had two sons and also the [Assassination] Gift. Supposedly, by erasing her presence, approaching a monster unnoticed, and striking at its weak point, she took down monsters with ease.

“Hey, have you heard? About Amelisan's son, I mean. He's just 10, but he's got a girlfriend already. And that girlfriend, you see—”

And the one to gleefully initiate idle gossip like that was Bene-san. She had 3 sons. She also had the [Storage Vault] Gift. Since her Gift allowed her to store things in another dimension, I heard that she was able to bring with her a large amount of things, like the elven-brand potions, into the dungeon.

Incidentally, the last member of their party was Hannsan who had the [Shield Techniques] Gift. True to her Gift, she seemed to be her party's shield. She had her third son just recently.

……To sum it up, each member of their party had a powerful Gift.

“Let's go, everyone. We don't have anyone to act as a shield, so do your best but don't be reckless, ok?”

“““'Kay!!”””
