Year 7446, Month 9, Day 14

This time when we enter the dungeon Angela is accompanying the {Butchers} and Toris is going with the {Exterminators}. Excluding them the remaining 9 of us in the {Slaughterers} will be exploring the 9th floor. Midway through next month we'll be performing a test for switching out members for those who want to try it and if it seems like a member will be able to change then after that we'll bring them into the dungeon once then if there's no problem on the next time we enter the dungeon we'll try to clear the 9th floor. If there's no members who get switched out then shortly after the member change battle when we enter the dungeon again just the same we'll head towards the center area of the 9th floor and try to clear it.

Hearing this everyone's motivation seems to have gone up but just as expected of the former {Sun.Ray} members, there was no one among the veterans getting restless. However, Sanno and Ruttsu who hope to enter the {Slaughterers}, and also, Rodrick's combat slaves Denda and Karimu who want to get promoted along with their master, the four of them seem to be quite motivated to the point there's a bit too sharp of a gleam in their eyes.

Sanno and Ruttsu are just the individuals so putting them aside, why in the world are Denda and Karimu is what I was thinking but it seems, "A slaves earnings are the masters earnings. If the amount the master is earning increases then naturally our earnings will increase as well" was the reason. I see, I thought there was various ways of thinking about it.

Rodrick has the role of calming them down. Of course, Rodrick himself wants to enter the {Slaughterers} as well but among the tension he seems to be moderately relaxed. Just as expected from someone who's received investiture as a knight of the Faruergaz Knight Group he's calm. After all those who properly trained here and there seem to have some composure. They might understand that this composure will reduce the chances of a mistake.

Year 7446, Month 9, Day 19

After returning to the surface I heard a slightly unexpected story. It seems that all of the remaining survivors of {Black.Topaz} cleared out of their inn and returned to their home town. Since I was a bit interested I tried gathering the rumors but it wasn't anything at all though. It was just that they were returning to return the magic stones of the members who passed away to their families.

Supposedly Viscount Anderson's territory is in the Northern Royal Territories so it will take them a considerable amount of time to go and return so they just cleared out of their inn for the time being. Although, my relationship with them is nothing more than friends so it doesn't particularly matter even if they don't come back just like that. It seems the reason they didn't go back right away after that was because they were looking for a caravan escort job that's going towards their home town.

It seems that as expected they didn't have enough horses for everyone.

What's important is that the other top team that was cooperating with the {Verdure.Brotherhood} is going to be gone for the time being(?). It's the perfect chance the open the gap even wider. Particularly if we could carry back treasure from the 9th or 10th floors and lead them into getting impatient then there's nothing more to say but as expected I'm sure that's impossible. Thanks to the incident this time with {Black.Topaz} both them and the {Verdure.Brotherhood} managed to recover their original caution and tension.

In any case, {Black.Topaz} won't be returning for another couple of months. Hearing this there were some fellows who's bindings started to loosen as they said, "How about if you quickly go to the 10th floor? If it's Greed-kun then can't you make it?" or something like that as well. Certainly it's not as if you can't call it good news to us but that doesn't mean that the level of danger in the dungeon gets any lower.

I'm not changing our plans so we'll keep exploring at our current pace, and I said that ending the discussion.

Also, it seems that the price of the {Refrigerator} I carried into Sandak Company in the capital a while back settled down and sold at 160,000,000 Z. However, there's still no news in regards to the {Ring.Of.Protection}. I was just about to go to the capital during the break this day time. However, regardless of the fact that Toris and Angela are gone on our time entering the dungeon this time, it was clear that everyone was only just as cautious as usual so I need to properly train them.

In terms of items we {Slaughterers} ended up with zero results this time other than the map but the {Butchers} found an ore on the 5th floor, though it was silver, and the {Exterminators} discovered a party that was wiped out on the 3rd floor so they wrangled away their equipment. It's no ones responsibility that we weren't able to obtain any treasure but isn't this a bit lonely.
