The dungeons were managed by the Adventurers' Guild.
The dungeon of the beginning is under the control of the Kingdom of Skye, and no one can challenge it without the permission of the Adventurers' Guild.
The reception desk was located in a small two-story building, which was like a small village with weapon shops, tool shops, and innkeepers in the center.
"I thought it would be more lively since it is a popular dungeon."
"You need permission from the government to open a store in this dungeon."
"Heh."
The stores may be small, but they are all royal stores with their headquarters in the capital.
"I see. I see. So the dungeon is owned by the state, so they are very careful in this area.
Erica crossed her arms and nodded her head in agreement with Sam's comment.
"People come to this dungeon from all over the continent, so we can't let strange stores operate here.
"That's true, too."
It is a dungeon, after all, owned by the state.
The reputation of the surrounding stores is directly related to the reputation of the country.
"But I heard that you are planning to open more stores in the near future.
"It's good to see it thriving. Besides, there are too few stores for all the adventurers.
I agree. But there are too many people who want to open stores in the dungeon, so it's not easy to decide.
It's not easy in the country either.
Unlike here, the areas around the dungeons that I have seen all over the continent were all bustling with activity.
There were also dungeon cities, towns built around dungeons.
Dungeons enrich people's lives.
On the other hand, they can also be dangerous because of the periodic outbreaks of monsters in the dungeon.
Still, the more people stay in the dungeon, the more the returns outweigh the risks.
Come on, let's go to the reception desk. ...... seems to be busy today. Are you a registered adventurer?
"Of course I do."
With that, he hands Erica his adventurer's card.
She looked at the card and clicked her tongue.
"...... You must be B rank. You're so cocky."
"What about Erica-sama?"
"--C rank. ...... Hey, what's with that triumphant look on your face!"
"No, I don't. I don't think I'm higher in rank than you.
"You know what? A C-rank at my age is pretty amazing!"
"In other words, it's even more amazing that I'm younger than Erica-sama and ranked B, isn't it?"
"Ugggghh!"
Apparently, he's right.
In fact, not many people Sam's age can become a B-rank adventurer.
Even Sam did not become a B-rank adventurer without any hardship.
He almost died many times, and he had to go through many deadly battles to reach the rank of B.
"Well, well, don't worry about it. Rank is not everything, you know.
"Then stop making that smug face! It pisses me off! I'm pissed off! Hey, really, stop making that smug face! It pisses me off!"
I don't think Erika hates me deeply since we can have such an exchange.
Sam can understand Erica's feelings.
Her sister, whom she admired and adored, has taken a boy she doesn't know from anywhere as her apprentice and has passed on everything she has to him.
If you are in the same situation, you must be angry even if you are not Erica.
"It's crowded, by the way."
That's how popular the dungeon of beginnings is.
"It wouldn't be as popular just because it's for beginners, would it?"
The materials for the monsters that inhabit the beginning dungeons are always in demand. There are also good quality herbs in the dungeons, so even if you are not good at fighting, you can still make good money.
"It's a very good deal."
It seems to be an ideal dungeon for adventurers.
The difficulty level is so high that even the most experienced adventurers are prepared to die if they dive too deep, and they will probably spend their entire lives just trying to get into this dungeon.
"I have gained a lot of experience in this dungeon. Sometimes I even went with my sister Ur."
"You and Ur were very close."
We are sisters. But Urs was a court magician, so she was very busy. But she still took the occasional day off to take care of me.
"That's typical of Ur."
Ur's caring nature seems to have always been there.
Sam also recalls that Ur taught him many things.
"...... so I was worried when my sister suddenly disappeared."
"It's understandable. A family member so dear to you has suddenly disappeared."
That's not true. I thought maybe he got tired of us, or did something to offend us.
In fact, Ur left his family to hide his illness and to find a successor.
However, Erika and her family must have been worried because they were not informed of the reason.
It is understandable that Erica would have negative thoughts.
"Ur doesn't hate his family.
"I know! That much! Don't you talk about my sister!"
"--Excuse me."
The conversation that had been going on for so long was cut short at this point.
Sam tried to comfort Erica, but it seemed to have the opposite effect.
In the awkward atmosphere, Sam searched for words, but could not find any, and could only wait quietly for his turn at the reception desk.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
