The entrance of Cobalt Dungeon .

By firing a few Annihilation Bullets at the mountain load of Iron Bars blocking the entrance, I created a way out .

Sure enough, there were many adventurers gathering outside of the entrance .

They were the victims of my plan of not being able to get inside the dungeon .

Their facial expressions were also within my expectations, both angry and unhappy .

Well then, it’s about time—–

[Ou, you finally decided to come out . I was waiting for ya . ]

Nicholas called from beside me and placed his arms around my neck .

The feeling is like meeting up with a friend who you’ve never met for a long time .

This wasn’t within my calculations, which caught me off-guard as I could not dodge him in time .

[Nicholas . ] (Ryouta)

[Were you bored inside? I’m sure you were . So let’s have a bout right now . ] (Nicholas)

[No, it’s not like I was bored—–] (Ryouta)

[Don’t say such a boring thing, I’m sure being inside there for a whole day must’ve been boring for ya right? Hey, just a while, just a tiny weeny bit . ] (Nicholas)

While still putting his arms around my shoulders, he used his other hands and did a praying pose .

Is he that desperate to fight? While thinking as such, I saw Cell who was right in front of me .

[Get your (filthy)hands away from Satou-sama, you’re being extremely rude towards him . ] (Cell)

[Huuuh? Who the h.e.l.l are ya to boss me around?] (Nicholas)

[That person is Shikuro’s—–] (Ryouta)

[I’m Satou-sama’s first believer . The name’s Cell・Stem . ] (Cell)

[Eeeeeeh!? Believer? A believer you say?] (Ryouta)

I shouted in a slightly weird noise, with a shocked expression .

I’m sure there’s a better way of introducing yourself .

Maybe saying like you’re the a.s.sociation Chief of Shikuro Dungeon, or like just freaking introduce yourself normally .

Throwing all of that away, Cell just made up a t.i.tle for himself as he introduced his name .

[A believer?] (Nicholas)

[That’s right, please have a look at this . ] (Cell)

Cell took out a figurine from within his breast pocket .

It was a well made figurine of me battling .

[I see, you being a devout believer wasn’t some lies . But then, are ya trying to disturb our fight huh?] (Nicholas)

[Of course . I would not allow any unnecessary fights with Satou-sama . I’ll do whatever it takes, even by force, to eliminate them . ] (Cell)

[Alright-y then . I’ll start with ya—–] (Nicholas)

[Wait wait just a second, are you seriously trying to start a fight here . ] (Ryouta)

I immediately broke off the fight between Nicholas and Cell .

I have some things I have to do after this, so starting a fight now would be bothersome to me .

However, if you do it someplace else, I won’t stop you .

[Aah . ]

Cell accidentally b.u.mped onto me .

And after b.u.mping into me, another figurine of me fell off from his pocket .

Again it’s a figurine of me, however it’s a figurine of me who’s trying to take things out from my pocket, and my pocket is filled .

[Why the h.e.l.l do you even have something like that!] (Ryouta)

Cell hurriedly picked the figure up and stuff it inside his pocket before arranging himself .

Seriously, what is wrong with these people .

[What is it, what was that about?] (Nicholas)

Nicholas who had no idea what happened asked .

Well obviously he doesn’t know the meaning, and if he does it’s gonna be even more troubling .

This b.l.o.o.d.y stalker, Cell is plenty enough for one stalker .

For now let’s stop this dispute, leaving those two aside, I went to where the adventurers gathered .

Towards the adventurers who can’t get inside of the dungeon because of me .

Towards the adventurers who can’t get inside of the dungeon because of me .

The adventurers were confused .

Standing right in front of them, I took something out of my pocket .

Some of them were shocked that they moved their bodies backwards as they saw what I took out from within my pocket .

I placed it on the ground, and it was the Bars, but it wasn’t just some Iron .

It was the Aluminium and Copper bars that are quite valuable in the market .

I took them out one after another, piling them up higher and higher .

At first the adventurers were on high alert, but after awhile they lowered their guard and looked at my movements .

After that I finally took everything out .

The moment of the pose of the figurine—–It was me taking out an abundant of dropped items from my pocket .

After completely sealing off the first floor, I went to the lower floors to hunt .

I hunted them with CQC and my dual revolvers first, but after that, I used Repet.i.tion to farm the dropped items .

So literally, a mountain pile of metal appeared in front of the dungeon .

And towards all the doubtful adventurers… . . I lowered my head .

[I’m terribly sorry!] (Ryouta)

[Satou-sama!?]

Behind me was Cell crying out, but I ignored him .

[I’m terribly sorry for bothering your earnings inside this dungeon!! I don’t know whether this is enough to compensate for it, but please take these as an apology from me . ] (Ryouta)

[Satou-sama! There’s no need for Satou-sama to do any of that . The culprit here is that guy . ] (Cell)

[Still, it doesn’t change the fact that I’ve caused trouble to everyone here . ] (Ryouta)

With my head still bowing, I told Cell . Then, Cell too also stopped talking and closed his eyes .

Once again I turned towards the adventurers .

[For the troubles I’ve cause, I heartily wish for everyone to take this as compensation . ] (Ryouta)

Is what I said .

Is what I said .

[ [ […… . . ] ] ]

Silence descended, and time was slowly flowing .

I do not think that I’ll be forgiven for this, but even so at least have this as an apology .

As such I left all of these drops here .

Then .

[Ooi Katoru, you go get it first . ]

[Eh?]

I looked up, and a guy who looked to be a veteran adventurer spoke .

[You operate by bicycle right . Quickly take what you need . ]

[A, aah . Thank you so much . ]

A small and weak looking guy pushed his own Magic Cart and piled the bars into it .

[Oliver and Psy too . Kami-san and Okksan are sick right . Quickly exchange these into money and buy them some medicine . ]

[I got it . ]

[I pay my respects . ]

The mountain of drops were sorted out by that adventurer .

I was honestly relieved .

Then looking at that guy who was distributing the items, I spoke to him .

[Thank you . ] (Ryouta)

[Don’t mind . You don’t have to actually do this for us though . ]

[No wait, but then again——] (Ryouta)

[But you don’t feel good either right . So that’s why we will receive it . So we’ll be even . ]

[… . . Thanks again . ] (Ryouta)

[No worries . ]

[No worries . ]

The man turned over .

I turned around and looked at him .

[Thank you . ]

[Eh?} (Ryouta)

The man lowered his head gently .

Other adventurers who saw that stopped moving their hands, and looked at me with the same expression .

[We’re saved by you from that guy . Many people suffered because of him . I always wondered if anyone would do something about it, but there weren’t any chance for us to do so . ]

[They are too many informers . So it’ll be troublesome if you make any scene . ] (Cell)

Cell caught hold of the conversation and spoke from behind me .

[Thank you for grasping that opportunity and helped us . ]

[ [ [Thank you . ] ] ]

The adventurers all spoke and thanked me .

I was impressed, but was also embarra.s.sed by it .

I thought that I have to react somehow .

[Alright, is it done yet? Yeap it’s done . Then let’s fight right now . ] (Nicholas)

Nicholas grabbed me by the shoulder again from behind and asked for a battle once more .

[Can you wait, this is not the time for it . ] (Ryouta)

[I’m sure you’re bored after a day in there right? It’s boring right? If so let’s just have a fight to release your stress then . ] (Nicholas)

[Are you even listening to me!? I wasn’t resting at all okay, I went to all of the floors and hunt—–] (Ryouta)

[Hey come on let’s just fight . ] (Nicholas)

Grabbing onto me, he pulled me closer .

Towards the guy who can’t read the mood, I was dragged by his conversation .

Oh by the way, Nicholas was beaten senseless in a place where there were n.o.body .
