Thanks to the EXP from the big crab and my Party"s kills, I managed to Level Up once more. Three Levels to go now, and just as we finished this boss fight, we reached Floor 4. There was a large ecosystem of coral reefs here, colorful, and beautiful, and many underwater cave systems.


We decided to get inside one to take a breather. They had water bubbles inside, connecting to the surface, so it was perfect to relax and...


Have a feast of seafood, of course!


There was a large plate I put over the wet floor of this large cave we found. I placed all the monsters we hunted... well, not everything, bust most of them. I began cooking a few of them while leaving others there to eat raw, cutting them down with Silva"s a.s.sistance into delicious sas.h.i.+mi.


Aside from that, the giant crab I killed was boiled and his meaty claws were placed over the big floor, they were enormous and overflowing with tender white meat. The shark, fishmen, and urchin were also served neatly, everything looked amazing and smelled delicious. I had used Purification on everything already, so there was no toxic miasma for everyone else to worry about.


"Uwaaah! So much food!" Ariant began drooling.


"S-So this is the delicious seafood that this city has enjoyed for so many years..." Eriant said.


"A Dungeon that brings seafood, what an interesting wonder." Luminous said.


"There"s just so much everywhere! What should I choose?!" Brunhild asked.


"This is... should we be feasting when we might be about to slay the final boss?" Asked Sol.


"Don"t worry Sol, we must recover our energies before departing! It is common sense." Said Frank, he seemed to enjoy the food.


"Although I am the most desperate to end this d.a.m.ned dungeon"s exploration, the food"s delicious... And the view from here, the beautiful deep-sea view you could never really see out there, this dungeon has it and it"s so nice..." Sighed Fiere.


We all glanced across the bubble of water, the scenery outside was truly one of beauty. There weren"t just monsters here, there were also a whole ecosystem here of normal sea animals living in harmony together. Floor 4 was also rather deserted of monsters, it might seem like the Boss was storing everything for Floor 5, the last floor.


For now, we simply sat down and enjoyed the delicious seafood dishes we had in front of us. It all went well with some wine and other things I brought inside my Item Box. We have to enjoy the good things in life before confronting the ugly and bothersome side of life as well, right? We need balance.


And good, this balance was great. The crab was... I knew it was going to be good, but never THIS good! The delicious and strong taste of its fat white meat was superb. I merely boiled it with some steam but it ended so nice... So soft too!


"Hmmmm~!" Brunhild was eating a whole claw in her original size, she was enjoying the big-sized meals. All the monsters we fought were utterly gigantic so she could feast on them and fill her big stomach easily as well.


"Oh this fried fish filet is so good!" Frank said. "You made the batter, Kireina?"


"Yeah I did! It was nothing hard, I wanted to eat fried fish." I sighed in relief. "Also it is pretty nice you can buy seasonings from Earth in your stupid System thing! Now we finally have soy sauce and tons of other sauces and spices! You should had told us this sooner!"


"Ahhh... Ahahah, sorry about that." Laughed Frank. "I didn"t felt like it but I guess it might improve our food even more. Here, there"s some Sake I just bought as well."


"Sakeeee! It goes the best with seafood! You d.a.m.n brat, you know your d.a.m.n stuff!" I laughed, drinking from a thin traditional cup.


"This is soy sauce, huh?! It is amazing!" Said Luminous.


"A-And this Teriyaki sauce, it goes so nicely with the fried fish filets and the crab... The sas.h.i.+mi goes well with the soy sauce as well..." Ariant said.


"These seasonings are so flavorful, even the richest of sauces are not as flavorful as this..." Eriant was flabbergasted.


"I have to admit this liquor is good..." Fiere drank her third cup of sake.


"This grilled eel is amazing... Even more when you poured that teriyaki sauce over it while grilling it, the sauce was melded into the meat so nicely..." Said Sol. "I can already feel my energy coming back with this delicious food."


"Shark meat is nice as well, especially when fried with that oil and the spices you used... I can"t stop stuffing myself with it, the b.u.t.ter you added made it even tastier! And what"s with this spicy wine? Sake you say?" Laughed Luminous, getting merrier as he drank more.


"Oi Ariant don"t steal my sas.h.i.+mi!" Eriant complained.


"Hehe, you"re too slow, my little brother, my naïve, naïve, little brother~!" Ariant giggled as she gulped down the sas.h.i.+mi she stole.


"We have the same age! Now give it back!"


"Aggh! What are you trying to do? Stuff it out of my mouth?!"


"Geez, do you need to make such a fuss..." Sighed Brunhild. "Hic... Ahh, this liquod is making me dizzy, hehehee..."


"Frank can you give me more of that sauce?" Asked Sol.


"Sure!" Frank handled it happily.


"So this is fried shrimp?! It"s amazing!" Luminous celebrated.


Scenes like these really warm my heart.


Seeing everyone enjoying the food, talking, and laughing...


I can see my family within them for a few glimpses.


Those good times I spent with everyone... I miss them.


I"ll go back and have a good meal with everyone once more.


But for now, we"ve got a Final Boss to beat and a Dungeon to conquer!


Meanwhile, within the depths of the Dungeon, the Fishman King was angered, his enormous body looked around the dungeon with his powerful eyes connected to the dungeon"s capabilities.


"W-Why are they taking so long to get down here?! We"ve got an army of a thousand! Where the heck are they?!"


The fishman king began to distort his already ugly face.


"...Don"t tell me these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds are taking a break in the middle of my dungeon!? AAGH! Who are you taking me for?! Just come down already!"


His frustrated screams made all his subordinates fearful of his rage...
