「Now then, this dungeon has various rules. Even if you die, you will be revived, but the equipments and items you had when you died will be lost. Also, your Lv will be lowered.」
Ahh, Myst○rious Dungeon? was that kind of game, right? I remembered that.
「Will we return to level one?」
「No, the death penalty is determined by the dungeon or layers where you died.
The trial dungeon has no penalty in terms of level and item, but if for example you die in the ‘Infinite Corridor", your level will be lowered according to the layer where you died, with Lv1 as the maximum.
However, you can recover the negative amount, one Lv every day. Well, that means if you die, please take a break.」
Then if I died on the 87th floor, did I need to rest for 86 days until I was completely recovered? Wasn"t it more like a penalty then?
But then, it wasn"t like our Lv actually went down or that we died, so maybe it wasn"t a penalty roo?
The forefront capture group wouldn"t be able to capture it without making any sacrifice, so did they rotate around by a large number of people?
「Your equupment and items are not completely lost. But excluding the case when the durability is totally lost… I mean, when they break, it will be p.a.w.ned.
After the original owner lost the item, they have the right to purchase the item starting from the next day after they lost it for a week, and after the time has pa.s.sed, the item will be sold to the public.
If no one want to buy it after three months have pa.s.sed, it will disappear from the store and the item will be transferred to the treasure chest in the labyrinth or become monsters" equipment. We called this as “quality flow”.」
That was terrible.
It was a measure to take the items back, but in another sense, wasn"t it more terrible than completely losing the item?
「There are also considerable desolate figures of adventurers who stand still in front of the p.a.w.n shop because they don"t have enough savings to buy back their lost equipment and can"t enter the labyrinths because of the penalty.
My colleague Dullahan has a terrible hobby to go and laugh at those kind of adventurers, but everyone here should make sure not to imitate him. If he"s not a staff, it"s not strange for him to get kicked out from this city.」
「Uwahh…」
That"s a very low hobby. Even if someone stab him, it won"t be strange.
「The next matter has nothing to do with Philos-san and Gowen-san anymore, but it"s about the trial dungeon.
All of you have registered as an adventurer, but you are not yet officially adventurers. With this beginner lectures and trial dungeon capture, you will finally debut.
After the actual debut, you can undertake the job in the bulletin board and enter the labyrinth other than the trial dungeon.」
It"s a hurdle that Yuki and I have to overcome first.
「Err, how difficult is that trial dungeon?」
「That"s right. To be honest, it"s not that difficult.
There is no time limit, you can bring weapons and rental items inside, no traps, the monsters are not strong, there is no time limit for each layers, and there is no penalty. The capture is very easy.
Because it"s a fixed map type, the internal structure doesn"t change every time you enter. I think I can capture it in fifteen minutes if I rushed. Both of them also captured the dungeon in their third attack.
The actual capture completion rate is around 40%. It sounds low, but this is because there are commemorative adventurers who registered without any preparedness or those who died inside and lost their willing to continue. What hurts will hurt after all.」
I"m not sure if the number is high or low. Well, people who take entrance exam without any regard for their chances in pa.s.sing the exam are also quick to give up the course.
Maybe the problem is the people who are dead and lost their heart. Literally, it was required to have the mental power to endure the pain of death.
In addition, I didn"t know what kind of sensation would come by when I was dying, but I hadn"t experienced it, so I wouldn"t understand. In fact, it might be even more painful than just feeling pain.
Leaving aside the pain, I… didn"t remember it, but I had died once. I was a reincarnator after all.
「The youngest clearer was a five years old child, and the oldest cleared was the person who later died because of his old age. He was seventy eight years old at that time.」
It was amazing that a five years old child cleared a dungeon. Well, maybe it was possible in the world full of reincarnators?
「Also, the trial dungeon is accompanied with a guardian. Senior adventurers with enough experiences will teach you a lot of things, so if you have any questions, you can just ask them.
By the way, if there is no adventurer who accepts the companion request, you won"t be able to enter the trial dungeon. However, because it"s has a relatively nice income, it"s a popular job. I"m sure you won"t have to wait that much.
If you really have a bad timing or you don"t want to wait, you can ask Dullahan Rotfl-san who I talked about earlier. He will gladly accept it.」
I didn"t want to be accompanied by such a person. His name was too terrible.
「Is the person who accompany us partic.i.p.ate in the battle?」
「They will only partic.i.p.ate as your role model. Basically, they won"t intervene even if you are in a situation where you are about to die. But they will answer your questions, and they are allowed to heal or give you meals other than during the battle with their own discretion.
If they interfered too much, there will be a penalty after a warning, and everyone will be returned to the entrance.」
That"s only natural. I didn"t know what the trial was for if they could partic.i.p.ate in the battle. It would just be a study tour at dungeon.
「With this, I have finished the general explanation, but do you have any questions?
Even if you are not here, all of the guild members are like the managers of the adventurer except from the brute one like Rotfl-san, and they will give you consultation, so don"t hesitate to ask.
You can also ask some personal questions or vampire-specific questions to me, you know. My favourite food is garlic.」
What was that self-instruction?
「Err, how do we decide who will accompany us for the trial? Is it possible to directly challenge the dungeon right after this?」
The one who said that was Yuki, not me.
He was a motivated boy. I wanted to go to the dormitory first, though.
「The companion is a job that is mainly issued to the intermediate adventurers. If you ask about it at the reception, they will tell you who are registered there, so you can choose from those people…
Well, since I have the motivation, I"ll check it for you. …There are exactly three people who have accepted the order.」
I was sure that he didn"t see anything, but it seemed like he had confirmed it.
Maybe he could use something like telepathy, or some information that we couldn"t see was displayed somewhere.
「I don"t personally recommend the member of the . Other than that, there are Chittsan from , and… what the heck is Rotfl doing here… That means Chittsan is the only option.
If there"s no other problem, would you like to proceed with this? Philos-san, Gowen-san, let"s meet again at the briefing before the debut later.」
After parting with Gowen who nodded without saying anything and Philos who replied us with a cheerful reply, we went with Mr. Vampire.
「Hey, are you going straight to the dungeon just like this?」
「What are you saying, Tsuna will also go.」
It seemed like our combination had already started now.
「I only have a manufacturing knife with me right now, though.」
「It should be okay, right? It seems like there is a rental, and there are also some items that might drop. Isn"t that right, Werner-san?」
「Yes, there"s no problem. If you can, it"s also possible to clear the dungeon with bare hands, and you don"t have to clear it all at once.
From the second layer onwards, there are also return gates for each lager, so you can also take a look at the situation and go home.」
Well, if the instructor said that, then it should be fine, right?
If this was a work and we suddenly challenged ourselves without any preparation, it was only asking for a big failure, but in this case, even failing wouldn"t be a very bad thing.
「If possible, can we at least register to the dormitory that we can lend for free first?」
「If you"re worried about that, you have been registered to that as a set with your registration as adventurer. Since the rooms near the entrance are empty just right in time, Tsuna is a.s.signed to Room 101 and Yukito was a.s.signed to Room 102.
You don"t need a key since it"s a biometric authentication. Even if you don"t know how to use it, there"s no problem since the guild reception is open for 24 hours.」
What was a biometric authentication anyway?
I didn"t have much luggage with me, so fine. I only had this sack anyway.
「Heyyo, rookies. I"m Chitta from , nya.」
When we went to the lobby, there was a cat-eared person in front of us.
This cat-eared person would become our companion for our trial dungeon strategy, eh.
