「Nghhh, my body hurts.」

After being in the carriage for three hours, every part of his body ached.

Sam raised his arms high and straightened his back as he looked around.

There were people dressed like adventurers, and boys and girls who looked like they were students in some school uniform.

Everyone’s eyes were shining and they were ready to challenge the dungeon.

(This is the dungeon of the Sky Kingdom?)

.

It was a dungeon, but it was probably a type of underground dungeon.

He couldn’t find anything that looked like an entrance.

Instead, there were several buildings in sight.

Presumably, one of them is the entrance to the dungeon.

「What do you think? This is the dungeon of beginning.」

「The dungeon of beginning?」

「Yes. The upper levels are for beginners. Adventurers will be delighted to see that the area is inhabited by popular monsters that are weak but can yield good materials. It’s a good place to gain experience, so knights, wizards, and students from the academy can easily challenge them.」

「Wow.」

「You don’t know anything about that?」

「I’ve tried dungeons before, but only in other countries. This is my first time in the Sky Kingdom.」

「Hmmm. I’m sure you were safe thanks to sister anyway, but she’s gone now. Let me see how far you can go with your abilities.」

With that, Erica unloaded the carriage and put on her gear.

Sam was relieved.

He and Lise had gone hunting without any preparation, but Erica seemed to have done the bare minimum of preparation.

He was not too worried, because he knew Lise’s ability well enough to know what she was capable of.

But Erica was different.

He could feel a certain amount of magic power, so guess she is a strong magician, but he doesn’t know her ability.

He didn’t want to take on a dungeon with Erica like that, unprepared.

Sam himself is not very well prepared, but he has inherited the Item Box from when he was traveling around the world with Ur, so he has all his tools and food intact.

After the hunt the other day, he made sure to check his luggage, so he’s not worried.

However, if possible, he wanted to research this dungeon thoroughly and make preparations before taking on the challenge.

「By the way, Erica-sama…」

「What?」

「It’s okay to challenge the dungeon now, but where should I go to get you to accept me?」

「Well… the only place for beginners is the fifteenth basement floor, so of course, you’ll have to aim lower than that.」

「How deep is it?」

「I don’t know.」

「So no one’s reached it yet.」

An achiever is a person who has reached the deepest part of a dungeon, and is also known as a conqueror.

The first person to reach or conquer a dungeon will have their name recorded in the organization that manages the dungeon, and will often receive a large bounty.

Most importantly, they gain the respect of the people around them.

Even though many people can conquer dungeons, the number of people who can reach the deepest part of the dungeon first is less than the number of dungeons.

Some dungeons have yet to be conquered, and some have yet to be found.

Most adventurers go into dungeons to gain wealth and fame.

「The upper levels are suitable for beginners, but from the latter half of the middle to the lower levels, the danger is so high that even experienced adventurers can easily die if they are not careful.」

「Hee.」

Sam’s really looking forward to it.

He has challenged the dungeon many times, but he always feels like he is going to die.

Thanks to his efforts, there has not been a dungeon that he has not been able to conquer.

However, every dungeon had already been conquered by another person, so there were still several ways to conquer it.

Even so, there were dangers, but this dungeon of beginnings still had no one to conquer.

As an adventurer, there is nothing more exciting than this.

「I don’t mean to impose on you to conquer dungeons. However, I would like you to show me that you are capable of reaching the lower levels at least. Sister Ur sometimes went to the lower levels as if she was taking a walk, so if you want to call yourself the successor, you’ll have to show at least the same level of ability.」

「Very well. That’s what I want.」

「What?」

「Come on, let’s go! I’m getting excited!」

Erica’s eyes widened as if she was confused by Sam’s happy face.

「Wai, you, you didn’t hear what I said? The lower levels are notorious for deaths!

「Of course I heard about it. But that’s what dungeons are for, isn’t it? I’m really looking forward to it!」

「You’re looking forward to it?」

「Yes. I want to see the end of this world. I want to see the deepest part of the dungeon of the beginning, where no one has ever been before!」

「You’re right. I hope you’re not just saying that.」

In contrast to Sam’s motivation, Erica raised her eyebrows in disgust.

The two of them proceeded to challenge the dungeon.
