33 33. Garbage And Recycling
On the way back from the Cyclodungeon Society.
I broke my fingers and counted them as I walked. I thought about what I would need to take with me to the dungeon.
I'll need bullets. Regular bullets can be replenished at random, but you should take more special bullets that can only be produced in Nifonium.
Besides that, we'll need a magic cart, and how much change of clothes to take with us.
''It's kind of like preparing for a business trip.
That thought made me laugh.
It reminded me of what it felt like to go on my first business trip right after I joined the company, when I hadn't been hit by hard work yet.
I remember I was excited about it because it felt like a little trip, like a school trip.
I'm looking forward to this new dungeon trip.
--But then I remembered something.
It's like leaving Cyclo and going to a new dungeon.
It's a bit like being out on your own: ......
A new two-bedroom house with a rent of 150,000 piro a month.
I got home earlier than usual and explained the request from the dungeon master to Emily.
I explained in detail that a new dungeon had been built and that I was asked to do some preliminary research on it.
'It's amazing, Yoda, just like the Neptune family,'
I remember when I was at Nihonium.
I hadn't even met Neptune at the time, I'd only heard about him through rumors.
'Yes, just like that. It's an amazing thing to be entrusted with investigating a dungeon.
It's a world where dungeons drop everything.
Okay.
Emily smiled and patted her little chest with her pretty hand.
'I'm staying at home properly while Mr. Yoda is away,'
No, I want you to come with me.
'What?Are you with me?
Yeah.
But I can't help you, can I?
'No, I don't. I want Emily to come with me.
I said, looking straight into her eyes.
I didn't want to go alone without her.
I stare at Emily with that feeling in mind.
She stares back at me. After a moment of surprise, Emily huffed and smiled.
Smiling serenely, she nodded clearly.
Thus, Emily and I were going to the new dungeon together.
The next morning, Emily and I set off as soon as possible.
We left the city of Cyclo and headed to a new dungeon using the map we got.
I was pushing a magic cart and Emily was carrying her hammer and a big backpack, just the way we always do.
She's been smiling for a while now.
"Sounds like fun, so what's going on?
'I'm going out with Yoda, it's a lot of fun.
Okay.
I'm glad I invited him, I thought.
It was worth it, I thought, just to see them smiling like this.
It's fine, I thought, looking around.
When I left the cyclone, the scenery immediately changed.
There were a lot of people in the city, and it seemed like a city in its own right, but within a short walk away from that, it was a complete wilderness.
There is literally nothing, not even dead trees, in the wilderness.
There's nothing there. ......
It's a disaster.
What?
If something happens, you'll be a haggler.It's only air, water, and earth that won't hug the haggle.
...... Yeah.
I was told a quick and amazing thing.
Yes, everything in this world is produced from dungeon drops.
And anything dropped in a dungeon will revert back to the monster that dropped it if it's left in an unpopulated area.
In other words, these unpopulated wildernesses are always empty because if something is there, it becomes a monster.
''I can't build a cabin in case of emergency, in this world.
After all this time, I feel like I've been transported to an amazing world.
Stars
After walking for a whole day, it was evening.
I was getting tired by now, so I decided to camp by the river.
I'll get ready.
Emily dropped her backpack and took the tent from inside and began to set it up in her familiar hands.
She had lived in a survivalist lifestyle before she met me, so she was very familiar with it.
Yoda, could you go get me some water?
All right. ...... Can you use the magic cart?
I'm fine.
I nodded, pushed the cart and headed for the river.
I filled the cart with water from the river.
I look out at the river, it's a beautiful river.
Nothing, no fish, no grass, no nothing.
I'm sure the fish aren't in the river either, because they are dungeon drops.
...... It's still an amazing world, and I thought it was interesting again.
When I returned to fetch water, the tent was complete.
'Emily?'
He's in there.
I put the magic cart down and walked into the tent.
What is this?
A tent?
It's almost like the living room of the house!
I went in with a bang.
The inside of the tent was very Emilie-like.
Just like home, it was warm and inviting when you walked in.
On the other hand, it didn't look like a tent at all.
The inside of the tent was so much like home that it felt like a magical space in another dimension or something.
There was a table, a sofa, and a lamp on the wall.
There was a table, a sofa, and a lamp on the wall, and it really felt like a home living room.
How did it come to be?
I brought it in my backpack.
In that backpack?
It was heavy.
It's not like that. It's shiny, it's fluffy. Is that a rug?
The floor was as fluffy as if it were unimaginable from the wilderness outside.
'I did my best,'
It's not like you can't handle it.
I was stunned, but Emily had a scowl on her face.
It's a look that says, "I just did the obvious.
I was surprised, but I thought it was typical of Emily.
Emily, whose home is also warm and welcoming and sometimes temple-like and divine, and it might not be a big deal to make her tent look like her home's living room.
'I'm making dinner next,'
Yeah.
I didn't think too much about it. I just wanted to relax in the tent Emily had set up for me.
Stars.
After eating Emily's hot supper, we took a break from drinking tea.
We were supposed to be in the field, but even the food was the same as usual.
Well, we've been served a meal in the dungeon a few times over here, so it's not a surprise.
'Here's your after-dinner ice cream.'
There are limits to what you can do!
I plunged into the dessert that was gently served to me.
I plunged into it, but ate it as it was.
'Oh, this is delicious. It's not too sweet and light.
It's yuzu ice cream.
Yeah, it's good.
Yoda, please go easy on yourself. I'm going to take care of the garbage.
'Oh, the ...... process?'
"Yes, it's a process, okay?
.......
That phrase stuck with me a bit.
Garbage disposal, not garbage disposal.
'What do you do with the trash?'
I'll do my best to burn it. When I'm in town, the contractor will take care of it for me, but in this kind of situation, if I don't burn it properly, it will become a monster.
Oh, and the garbage?
If you think about it, you're right.
In human life, we almost never completely use up our supplies, we always end up with some kind of garbage.
In this world where everything dungeon-drops, matter becomes a monster if left unattended.
Then that means the same thing for trash.
If you don't extinguish it, it becomes a monster.
It's the first time I've ever heard of this, but if you think about it, it's probably obvious.
I'll help you, you'll burn it.
Then he took out his gun.
Emily smiled, knowing about the flaming bullets.
'Thank you!'
We went outside the tent.
It was a different world outside than inside the bright, warm tent, a desolate wilderness.
I set down the garbage from the day and stood away from it, holding my gun.
I fired a flaming bullet, the garbage started to burn - but.
'It hardly burns at all,'
Garbage is a lot of work.
'That line alone would be normal.
I don't see anything out of the ordinary in front of me.
I take out my other gun.
This time I fired the flaming bullets at the same time and burned the trash with the fusion bullets.
The trash was burned with flames so bright that it was hard to look directly at them.
''It's all right now.''
Yeah.
Garbage is not good when it becomes a monster. Because they're trash, they're different from the original monsters and very strong.
That's a lot of work.
If there's illegal dumping of trash or something like that, it's going to be a big problem, no, I'm sure that's part of it, and it should be a problem there.
If it's so difficult to dispose of that it can finally be burned by the flames of fusion bullets, then there's bound to be some cheating and accidents.
The garbage problem on this world might be a bigger problem than you think.
Wait for .......
'Emily, what did you say?'
Yes?
Does garbage turn into a different monster than the original?
Yes, sir. What about it?
What's going to happen to his drop?
No?Hagremon--oh.
Emily, who is about to say it and hats it off.
She finally seems to realize that she's not the only one.
Hagremonos don't drop anything, except for me.
But hagrems that I kill do drop items.
So you think the original monster came from the garbage and not the original?
Emily made me dinner for the night and I took out the trash.
I put the trash far away in the middle of the wilderness, away from the garbage and waited patiently.
We waited for about ten minutes, and then the garbage lit up and turned into a monster.
It was humanoid.
A man-like figure with green skin and gnarled skin, with what looked like nails driven into his neck.
In a word - a Frankenstein.
'It's a checkmate, sir.'
Emily said, and took off carrying the hammer.
She jumped into Frankenstein and swung the hammer down from directly above.
Frankenstein sluggishly waved his arms and intercepted the hammer.
There was a dull, but huge sound.
Emily's hammer came to a complete stop.
The hammer, which was smashing the rock monster to smithereens, was stopped without a care in the world.
'Emily, step back,'
Yes, sir!
He thought it was a bad idea and flew backwards as soon as he landed.
Frankenstein gives chase, firing his gun at it to stall it.
Regular bullets didn't work very well, just like the Mummy.
The flaming bullets burned a bit and quickly disappeared, and the frozen bullets iced up for a moment and quickly melted.
He fired a couple of bullets, but a single shot had little effect, and Frankenstein sluggishly moved forward towards Emily.
'Emily, take another shot.
Yes, sir!
As soon as she responded, Emily knocked the hammer down with the momentum of her rush as well.
Again, evenly matched, Frankenstein had the same power as the giant hammer of force A.
But it stopped properly.
I took advantage of the momentary lapse and put all the flaming bullets in my gun.
I fired a barrage of flaming bullets at Frankenstein, and all but one of them turned into a fusion bullet.
My gnarled skin went up in flames, and the flames from the fusion bullets didn't dissipate, they burned Frankenstein.
Eventually his body crumbled to the ground in tatters and was reduced to ashes.
'Thank you,'
I didn't expect it to be this tough.
I really didn't expect me and Emily's nightly trash to become such a strong monster.
Maybe the garbage problem in this world is a matter of life and death.
Well, that's just it, you just have to deal with the trash properly.
More importantly, it's a drop right now.
Waiting in anticipation, Frankenstein disappeared completely.
A single, golden, never-before-seen bullet dropped.
The result of that look and only one bullet.
I couldn't help but expect the effect of the bullet.
