It’s been three days since I’ve been tossed into this world.

Even with only two days experience as an adventurer, I’ve realised one thing already.

I can’t live doing only collection requests.

Because the day I registered I did something like go to the church, the day ended with just the medicinal herbs collection quest, but the next day I had time so I accepted two requests.

If you include the food expenses then I’m completely in the red.
Because I have the compensation money────let’s go with that────from the first day I won’t be immediately troubled, but my spending exceeding my income is just a matter of time.

There should also be novices besides me who won’t touch the subjugation requests, but I wonder how those people live?

In other words, my lifestyle doesn’t match my income.

Honestly speaking, to me, even the inn I’m staying right now is at a level that I can’t fully accept as ‘high’.
And moreover, as a maiden I’m against sleeping together even for a little with people I’m not in a relationship with; for the moment let’s leave aside the issue of whether there’s a man out there who would actually attack me.

And given this, I have no other choice but to increase my income.

I’m not really up to either of them, but if I had to pick one then I’d go with the subjugation request.

Moreover, anyone can see that if I accidentally met eyes with them while we were on the journey, it’d turn into a huge fuss.
To begin with, I doubt that I’d even be hired as a guard with my eyes hidden like this.

Subjugation requests require you to subjugate the designated monsters, and bring back a part special to them.

The clients are mostly those that have suffered harm, the Adventurers Guild, the Merchants Guild, or the lord of the town.
A subjugation request for goblins which become annoying once they grow in numbers is a permanent request put out by the Guild.

Since it’s “subjugation”, you have to kill the target, but honestly speaking that’s a heavy burden for me.

I think all modern people are similar in this.
Honestly speaking, suddenly accepting a subjugation request is something that needs courage, and I’m scared that I’ll fall into a helpless panic and get killed instead.

But I happened to hear about a beginner’s dungeon south of Riemel.

Activated dungeons are controlled by a dungeon master, but the beginner’s dungeon that I mentioned already had its dungeon master subjugated, so apparently its fallen under the jurisdiction of the Adventurers Guild.

Additionally, the term ‘Beginner’s Dungeon’ is the popular name amongst adventurers, and nobody remembers the official name.

Of course, even if it’s under the jurisdiction of the Adventurers Guild, the things it releases are real monsters, and it’s not as though there’s absolutely no threat to your life at all.

Since I couldn’t find enough courage to accept a subjugation request, I’ve decided to try training in the beginner’s dungeon for now.
If this is no good, then I’ll have to look for another way to increase my income.

After walking for a little under two hours from the eastern gate was the entrance to the dungeon by the lake shore.

Having said that it’s under the jurisdiction of the Adventurers Guild, its not as though the inside has been modified, and it’s a cave that goes into the bare rock itself.
While holding the tantou in my right hand, I began carefully searching. Speaking of which, I’ve heard that as long as you keep your left hand along the wall, even if you get lost you’ll eventually make it to your goal. I might get lost after all, so I’ll do that, at least until monsters appear.

Having walked around inside the cave for perhaps an hour, searching the dungeon while cutting down ferocious monsters that attacked me with a single swing of my dagger… is not what happened.

On the contrary, I haven’t even seen one.

This is clearly unnatural; like this, it would probably be completely useless as a training grounds for the Adventurers Guild.
At this rate I’d just be walking around for nothing, so I decided to think about it while taking a break.

The truth is that I actually vaguely know the reason why, but I just don’t want to acknowledge it.

Having said that though, it’s also a fact that running away from reality forever won’t get me anywhere either.
I need to gather my courage and face reality.

…It’s because of the Evil God Aura isn’t it, this situation?

The effect is a lot weaker on people than the mystic eyes so I forgot, but “the effect on humans is lower” is in other words, “on things other than humans, it demonstrates a strong effect”.

Since the first floor loops around if you walk far enough, if they’re always running away from me then I can understand why I would never meet them.

Because of the Evil God Aura, the monsters probably ran away without me knowing.

Since subjugation requests are targetted at monsters that attack people to begin with, having the enemy turn tail and run from you is probably beyond expectations.
Being the case, it means even if I go out on a subjugation request the monsters will just run away from me from afar with the exception of monster nests in places like caves with dead ends, but I can’t imagine that such a convenient request will come by often.

…I’m stuck.

Do I really have no choice but to drop the level of my lifestyle…?

『The dungeon core of dungeon “Lakeshore Cave” has been granted divine protection.』

Mn?

『Gained control of dungeon “Lakeshore Cave”.』

『Acquired skill “Dungeon Create”.』

『Dungeon name has been changed to “Holy Land of the Evil God”.』

Wai-, hang on.
No, seriously, please hang on.

Shocked at the sudden event, the surrounding scenery underwent a complete change before my eyes.

The walls that had been bare rock had changed into walls of black brick, and the torches that had been placed here and there changed into ominous candlesticks and shone with eerie purple light.

This place that shouldn’t have had a single kobold now had countless wraiths and golems swaggering about.

Mn, it’s been splendidly changed from the beginner’s dungeon from just now to a place with a last boss-ish atmosphere.
From the fact that the monsters aren’t attacking me, together with the voice from just now, I’ve more or less guessed it already, but I’ll check just to make sure.

“Status.”

Name:  Anri

Sex:       Female

Job:       Mage

Title:      Child of the Evil God, Dungeon Master [New]

Skills:

– Mystic Eyes of Wicked Authority (Lv.5)

– Abnormal Status Resistance (Lv.6)

– Item Box (Lv.4)

Equipment:

– Black  Clothes of the Evil God

– Scanties of the Succubus
– Pumps of Darkness

Mn, unfortunately it seems that I wasn’t just hearing things.

I ended up becoming a dungeon master.

Can use the dungeon core to manage the dungeon, and eliminate intruders.

Used by the ruler to expand or maintain the dungeon.

The level depends on the number of floors the controlled dungeon has.
Lv.1 is for 1~5 floors.

From the 『voice』 earlier, and what I can see from the explanation, there’s something called a dungeon core in this dungeon, and those that control the dungeon through that are the dungeon masters.

In other words, I don’t know for how long exactly, but in a dungeon with no lord, as long as you have the dungeon core you can control the dungeon, and because of my divine enchantment skill the effects spread via the dungeon and the dungeon core figuratively fell into the palm of my hand… Is this for real?

This is bad, seriously bad.

And now that the place that should have been a beginner’s dungeon got turned into this, they’ll immediately notice the abnormality.
Now that it’s come to this────

“Let’s pretend it never happened.”

Mn, thinking about it carefully, even if the abnormal change of this dungeon is made public, I can just put on an innocent face and live in town.
After all, I haven’t tested to see if other people can see it too, but as long as the skills and titles on my status screen aren’t seen by anyone else, there’s no way that anyone should know that I’m the dungeon master.
