Chapter 17: 10-rim Ga
Maybe it was because I had experienced so fighting, but I gained a little bit of confidence.
With monster cards and pop rockets, I feel like I can manage even when I go a bit deep into the dungeon.
That feeling further festered when rle cheered up.
[I told you, it will be alright. There were other adventurers with us when we went down before, right? You can co back with us on the way back.]
According to rle, there’s a convenient room near the stairs that leads to the 2nd Underground Floor.
Adventurers use this room for rest and relaxation, and it’s relatively safe and free of monsters.
She said that adventurers who had gone to the 2nd Underground Floor would co back to that room to rest, and that I could expect to make a lot of sales there during dayti.
[If Yuusuke-san would co there, it would also be convenient for too. I can buy so 10-rim chocolates when I’m tired.]
[Couldn’t you just buy them in the morning?]
[If there are so, I end up eating them, making wanna buy them every ti!]
It’s a matter of rle’s self-control huh.
But even so, I’m also interested in being able to earn quickly.
I want to get my permit as soon as possible and be able to rent an apartnt.
I don’t really feel at ho staying in Bottakuro.
If it will increase sales, I’m willing to take a few risks.
[If Yuusuke-san cos, everyone will be happy.]
Before I knew it, I was lulled by Mira’s words, and decided to go down the underground stairs.
As I was about to leave Bottakuro, my usual lodging, I saw Minerva standing leaning against the outer wall.
[Oh, Minerva!?]
[Good morning. What a coincidence……]
[What are you doing?]
[Nothing……]
Even though Minerva said that, it was currently raining outside.
The fact that he’s there in spite of that suggests that he has sothing very important to do.
[I’m going to the dungeon. What about you, Minerva?]
[I’m also going to the dungeon.]
[Hmmm……]
Did we really et each other here by coincidence?
In any case, we walked side by side into the dungeon.
◇◆◇
I did it…… I did it, I did it, I did iiiiiiiit!
Thanks to my waiting before dawn, I managed to pretend that we coincidentally encountered each other and succeeded in accompanying Yuusuke to work.
Yesterday, I was able to get him to eat my homade sandwiches, and Yuusuke said they were delicious.
All’s well that ends well, but I’m afraid that my plans may have been going too well……
I made lunch again today, but will Yuusuke eat it?
It would be easy to get him to turn his head my way if I used the Mystical Love Technique, but I know that that won’t do.
I want Yuusuku to love without that magic.
However, how will he know that I’m a girl?
I usually cast a Recognition Inhibition Area Magic on so that people won’t know I’m the witch Michelle, but should I just cancel it out?
No, no, that’s overly hasty.
If I make it look like a coincidence and have him close to my body, maybe he’ll realize it……
My, oh my, what’s with ? Since when did I beco so lewd!?
They say love changes a woman, and that may indeed be true.
Today, I will be hiding in the darkness of the dungeon as Yuusuke’s bodyguard.
Ahh, what happiness!
◇
It was raining, so I quickened my pace and rushed to the dungeon.
In this world, umbrellas aren’t sold.
Instead, acting as so sort of raincoat, there are only hooded leather cloaks.
However, it was hard to walk into the dungeon because Minerva kept on bumping into .
What ga is he playing now?
I couldn’t see the expression on his face because of the mask though, so I couldn’t really understand what he was thinking.
I t up with rle and Mira, who were waiting for in front of the dungeon.
[Morning.]
[Good morning……]
Because of Minerva’s presence, the two of them were more nervous than usual.
[Minerva, you should also greet them too.]
[Hmph, it’s the slutty brats who make sexual advances on Yuusuke huh…… If you get carried away, I’ll crush you.]
[Oi, the heck are you saying to my regulars!?]
[I- I’m sorry. I couldn’t help myself……]
Is Minerva a misogynist?
He certainly seems bad at talking and tends to be socially inept.
When I strongly scolded him, he beca downcast and lowered his head.
[rle, Mira, you shouldn’t mind what he’s saying. He just tends to say strange things. He doesn’t an any ill.]
[Huh……]
Despite the awkward atmosphere, we joined the throngs of people entering the dungeon and headed toward our destination.
We witnessed a few fights between adventurers along the way, but we arrived at our destination without any danger.
[This is the staircase to the 2nd Underground Floor huh. It’s wider than I thought.]
This staircase seems to be about 7 ters wide.
[The rest room is this way.]
rle said.
[You b*tch, trying to bring into a rest room, what are you trying to do!?]
[I an, he is a dagashi shopowner……]
[I see…… Then, I’ll allow it.]
Today, Minerva was even stranger than usual.
The room that was shown to was about the size of a banquet hall at a Japanese inn.
Co to think of it, I went to one on a company trip before.
Japan feels so far away now……
I moved to the corner and set up my stall.
[Open, Dagashi Yahagi.]
Ohh!?
There’s a big level up this ti!
What appeared was a shop that looked like a food stall at a festival.
A curtain hanging from the roof reads “Dagashi Yahagi” in large letters from this world, and the number of products has increased.
There aren’t only sweets, but also toys on the stand.
With those things being products of this shop, I guess they wouldn’t simply be toys huh……
[What’s with this box!?]
Just when I was wondering why rle was making a fuss, I found a nostalgic ga machine in the corner of the shop.
Product na: 10-rim Ga “Dungeon Crawler Ga”
Description: A ga in which you aim for the goal by flicking the 10-rim copper coin you put in with a spring-loaded lever. When you reach the 7th Underground Floor, you will receive a prize at the goal. The prize is Elixir.
Price: 10 rims per try (only 10-rim copper coins can be used)
How nostalgic.
It looks like the “Shinkansen Ga” I saw at the Retro Ga Museum.
I rember there were also similar-type gas with “Catch Ball” and “Car Race” as thes.
Even so, isn’t an Elixir too amazing of a prize?
That’s a dicine that heals any kind of wound or disease.
This Dungeon Crawler Ga does seem to be more difficult than the 10-yen ga I know though.
rle imdiately put in a 10-rim copper coin and started playing.
[You’re pretty good at this, rle.]
[Rather than lotteries that depend on luck, it seems like I’m better suited to this ga. I’m a woman of ability after all.]
[Be careful in that spot. If you hit too hard, you’ll fall on the other side.]
[Yeah, I can see it. Let’s do this here……]
However, rle relaxed her grip too much, and the copper coin fell into the hole right in front of her.
[Ghaaaa! I blundered. Tsk, one more ti.]
[No, we have to? go to work……]
A new specialty has been added to Dagashi Yahagi.
