Chapter 024
“Uhahahaha!”
The innermost part of the dungeon shallow floors.
A child’s high-pitched laughter resounded in the place where the boundary with the upper layer was already visible.
It’s my voice
What happened?
That is!
I finally!
Collected!
10 divine coins!
It’s been two months since I got permission to explore the dungeon by myself.
It’s already the third month of winter.
Despite accumulating 10 coins, I’ve properly handed over the contract amount to my employer, Seliana.
So I earned 14 coins in total.
Considering I obtained 3 coins in my first expedition, I can say it took a long time, but generally speaking, it’s amazingly fast.
If it was just to defeat monsters, I could fight against as many goblins as there are.
In the battle from earlier, I even faced eight opponents, but it was a comfortable victory without any injuries.
Then why did it take two months? There simply weren’t enough monsters.
The shallow floors of this Zerkis dungeon have several forks, but they all meet at the entrance to the upper floors.
And each route has a monster spawning area like in games.
The deeper you go, the higher the density becomes, but every year around this time, there are many adventurers in the depths of the shallow floors, so the pace of hunting would slow down.
It was about a month ago that I found a hunting ground just before the border to the upper floors, where those who hunt in the shallow floors don’t bother to go that far, and those who aim for the upper floors and beyond don’t bother to go out of their way to stay.
Well, I really took a long detour.
Come on, let’s hurry up and go home to go gacha!
◇
There is a small statue of the goddess in the [Hideout] that I borrowed permanently, but although I don’t know if there is a difference, since there is a splendid statue of the goddess, so I decided to use the one in the mansion’s worship hall.
…that’s what I did, but.
“How surprising. I didn’t think you can collect all of it in about two months, but I wish you could have gotten another one…”
“There’s not much time until departure. Let’s look forward to the continuation in the royal capital’s dungeon.”
The two of them came all the way to accompany me even though I can go alone and were saying whatever they want.
Well, whatever..
Let’s concentrate on the gacha.
I already checked them one by one, but unfortunately, all of them were a miss.
I asked Seliana and found out that anything but the one gained during birth and at the age of eight could be a miss.
However, it seems that there is a tradition among royalty and nobility that the father uses the first coin when the child is born, and the mother uses the second coin when the child is eight years old.
Since most of the commoners exchange money, it seems that they only vaguely know that there is only such a theory, but with my own example, I think it is highly credible.
It doesn’t seem necessary, but let’s kneel firmly according to the etiquette here.
The [Floating Orb] that compensates for my physical weaknesses, and the [Shadow Sword] with extremely high offensive power for close combat.
What I’m lacking is a means of long-range attack.
If it’s only goblins, I’m fine as I am right now, but I think it’s necessary considering the future.
I tried using a bow, but I didn’t have enough power to draw it…
Even knives and pebbles could only go so fast that it might only hurt a little if it hits.
I’ve given up trying to do something on my own.
There’s where the gacha comes in.
Please…
Long distance…
Magic….
Gun….
I strongly thought so and offered the divine coin.
The drum roll, which is already the 5th time, rings in my head.
Okay… come something!
The sound changed from a drumroll to a fanfare.
The word that came to mind was [Prayer].
…prayer?
What does it mean by prayer?
“Sera? It seems to be a blessing. What is it?”
She probably wondered why I was tilting my head, Seliana asked what I got from the gacha.
I call them skills, but what dwells in people is called blessing or God’s blessing.
And blessings are divided into two categories.
One is a type that always activates on its own.
The other is a type that activates at your own will like my [Hideout].
The former is activated when it is drawn, and you will know how to use it.
The latter requires finding a way to use it on your own, but it seems that there are many powerful ones in that category.
Nothing was activated, so this [Prayer] should be of the latter type.
“Sera…? What’s wrong? Are you okay?”
Since it’s [Prayer], it should be to pray or something, but when I took that kind of pose, she probably found it suspicious, she called out to me worriedly.
“What is prayer?”
“…prayer?
What the heck is prayer…?
