Three days had pa.s.sed from that.
As for what I was doing the last two days, there is no particular change.
When I wake up in the morning, I take care of the field and the chickens, after that I will dive in the dungeon.
If there was only one change, was it that I found a way to go further down in the dungeon.
Like a mysterious dungeon series game, there was a way to go down in the room.
Although I wondered whether to go or no, I have stopped going because I haven"t seen all this floor yet.

After that, it seems that it has become possible to kill the group of rats without spreading the bait.
Though, it was just before returning yesterday that I was able to do such a thing.
Until then I had to spread the bait and dispersed the attention of the rats before killing them.
Even so, not all the rats went to the bait, a few went to me, but I was able to repel them easily, so I tried to fight without spreading the bait.
Then, although I had some difficulty, I could kill all the rats.
The number of rats at that time was around 60.
I divided them between Pochi and me and defeated them.
When I started I was testing my skill, so I was going to withdraw as soon as it seemed to become dangerous, but when I unexpectedly annihilated the rats, I was pleased with the strength I got so far.
However, when it was just over, I wasn"t able to properly move by fatigue.
When I became able to move, I thanked Pochi for its help and returned to the home.

When I get home, it seems that there was a call from the government office, it said that the dungeon investigation is today.
So I haven’t gone to the dungeon yet, I"m waiting that the government officials come at home.
Because they didn"t say what time they will come, I can not go down yet.
When I was waiting irritated whether they won"t come, finally I heard a car approaching.
The car just stopped in front of the house.
When I left the entrance, a station wagon was in front of my house.
The person that came down from the station wagon was the person who does the procedure at the government office to become a Seeker.

"h.e.l.lo, thank you for your valuable time"

"Ah, yes, please treat me well"



"Then, it"s abrupt but where is the dungeon?"

"Here"

"Oh, please wait a moment. Everyone come on."

When the official says so towards the station wagon, people came down from inside.
There are five people.
There are five armed people, and I immediately understood that they were used to such a call.

"Who are these people?"

"Oh, I forgot to introduce. These people are from the SDF."

"SDF…"

"Yeah. Moreover, they are professionals specializing in dungeon capture"

j.a.pan now has a considerable emphasis on dungeon capture.
The SDF is responsible for its main strength.
However, there are limitations on the number of SDF units, so Seekers were born to supplement the shortfall from the private sector.
Well, it"s the people of the SDF which are here, and you can see that they are considerable strong.
I don"t know how much strength they have, but they will not talk even if I become part of the bunch.
And, the pressure I felt from one of them it"s not comparable with the other people.
I thought that this person alone could capture this dungeon.

"Please treat me well"

That person greeted me.

"W-Well, me too, please treat me well"

"Then please guide us"

"Yes, here"

I guide them to the dungeon in the field.

"Here it is"

"Is this?"

The official looked into the hole and nodded.

"Have you entered?"

"Yes, I had entered"

"How far have you reached it? What kind of thing came out?"

"We~ell, in this case is it ok to be on the first floor, right? I entered the first floor, and rats came out."

"I see, does a rat appear?"

"Eh, is there a problem?"

"Problem, although it"s not that, it"s a little troublesome"

"Troublesome?"

"Yeah, the rat itself isn"t so strong, but the number is unusually large. So, every Seeker can do it."

"Ah, surely"

My impression of the fights is that the rats are not that strong.
But, in the plaza, ah, is it better to say the room in this case?
There was a large number of rats in the room.
If you challenge without preparing anything, you can easily imagine what will happen.
If there is power to be able to overturn the violence of numbers, otherwise it"s reckless to challenge that number without measures.
I managed to do it by spreading the bait, but what would happen if I hadn"t thought that.

"Well, if it is those who are here, there is no problem"

The official look at the people of the SDF.
He seems to look at me too.
Yup, no problem for these people.
Even if these people go to the first floor alone, n.o.body will have any problem.
The power of each one of these people it"s definitely above the combined power of Pochi and me, a person and an animal.
I mean there is enough power to treat Pochi and me with one hand.
Honestly, I do not want to fight against them
In fact, Pochi too is cautious of these people, but he understands the difference of the power, his tail is between his crotch.
These people are lightly beyond the limits of human beings.
May there not be a sense of incongruity eve if I say human being are destructive weapons?
Perhaps, can they break a tank with bare hands?
Even if there is enough power, there isn"t any mystery.

"So what would you do after this?"

"Let me see… Could you show me around here?"

"I don"t mind it"

"Okay, please"

"Understood. Then, please wait a little"

I arrange the equipment to enter the dungeon.
As usual, I wear a helmet on my work clothes, the Tsuruginata on the rucksack and bring Pochi.

"Okay, let"s go"

I was stopped trying to head to the dungeon.

"Wa,wait a minute!"

"…what happen?"

"Are you going in that outfit?"

"? Yes, that"s right?"

"Shouldn"t you fix your equipment a little more?"

"Oh, is it that? No problem. I didn"t have any problems with this appearance for the moment. Because I will buy something properly if it became dangerous."

"Is that so? If you say so, let"s end that here. But does the dog go with you?"

"Yeah, I will take him there. Pochi is quite useful"

"Is it all right? Won"t the dog attack you?"

"It"s all right. Pochi will listen what I say properly"

"Then it"s good. But please be careful. There were people taking a dog to the dungeon, but most of them were attacked by the dog and loses their life"

Sure, I heard the news saying so.
It"s my a.s.sumption, but didn"t they treat the dogs well?
Or have they left all the work to their dogs and didn"t do anything on their own?
Dogs have emotions and are pretty strict in hierarchically order.
A dog doesn"t hear that one says if he doesn"t recognize that you are on the top and resists you.
If you do something wrong, you may have a serious injury.
What happens if such a dog knocks down a monster in a dungeon and acquires strength?
He recognizes that himself is the boss and will resist his owner.
So, the worst you get killed.
Perhaps, with Pochi will be fine.
I also beat monsters and am working hard, also I properly praise him and give rewards of meat.
Pochi seems to recognize me as an owner firmly, for now, it won"t happen the way they said.
I mean, they may think handling dogs like disposable tools.
If you train a dog properly, it will become a partner that it"s not like others.
I would like to say that I won"t want to keep it if I don"t have a firm tame.

"Yeah, I will be careful that that won"t happen. Then, let"s go"

"That"s so"

Seven people and one animal dive into the dungeon.
