Chapter 50, Steal!

by Silavin — Translator: Barnnn "It's about five hundred meters ahead," Ize murmured, her eyes locked on the faint movement in the distance. "Okay. I'll draw its attention from here." "I'll close the gap by half." Hal hesitated. "...I'm counting on you." Ize nodded firmly, unwilling to let Hal's intense gaze shake her. Without another word, she turned her back to him and began to move -- slow and deliberate -- creeping toward the Twisthorn Deer. Every so often, she would catch…

Chapter 51, Just the Skin

by Silavin — Translator: Barnnn The boar stew was indescribably delicious -- a feast made all the more satisfying because they'd hunted the meat themselves. Though Dungeon exploration hadn't been a major focus of their journey so far, Ize and Hal began to wonder if embracing life as adventurers in cities with "tasty" Dungeons might not be such a bad idea after all. Uplifted by this newfound prospect, their resolve for Dungeon exploration burned brighter than ever. "All right, today we…

Chapter 52, A Memorable Taste

by Silavin — Translator: Barnnn After evading the smaller spider-like Mystic Beasts for half an hour, Ize and Hal arrived at a rocky clearing where a massive black figure loomed ahead. Roughly the size of a compact car, it stood out starkly against the barren landscape. "Is that it?" Hal asked, narrowing his eyes. "According to my Perception... yes," Ize replied. "Queen Arachne. Weak to fire. Primary attacks include leg strikes, paralytic venom, and web shots," Hal recited the…

Chapter 53, Cashing Out and Catching Up

by Silavin — Translator: Barnnn Today marked the second rest day since their arrival in Jasted. They had three main tasks to tackle: First, converting the spoils from their past two days of Dungeon expeditions into cash. Second, purchasing equipment for Ize -- gloves for knife handling and protective gear for their upcoming battles against Chestnut Bombers. Third, dropping by the Crafters' Guild to submit the specifications for the portable toilet they had designed together last…

Chapter 54, Yellow

by Silavin — Translator: Barnnn While waiting for the paperwork to be processed, Ize and Hal struck up a casual conversation with Kikuno. She had grown up in Jasted and seemed deeply familiar with parts of the city adventurers rarely explored. When they asked if the city had a library or similar facility, Kikuno informed them about a public archive near a gate they hadn't used when entering the city. Adventurers ranked C or higher could access the archive for free, while those ranked below had to pay an…

Chapter 55, Seasonal Flavors

by Silavin — Translator: Barnnn When they both murmured the object's name at the same time, the shopkeeper glanced up, his gaze shifting between them. "You recognize this?" "Not exactly," Hal admitted. "But it closely resembles an ingredient we used to eat back home." "An ingredient...?" "Yeah. It's food." "Food..." Ize caught it instantly -- the slight twitch at the corner of the shopkeeper's mouth. Or rather, his whole body was trembling. "If you want to…

Chapter 56, Whittling It Down

by Silavin — Translator: Barnnn Progress through the previously cleared floors was swift and uneventful. Even the Twisthorn Deer posed little trouble, thanks to Ize's newly acquired gloves. Their reinforced grip minimized the recoil from hitting bones, making it easier to attack the creature's legs and joints. At one point, they stumbled upon a group of adventurers locked in battle with a Queen Arachne. Slipping into the shadows with Stealth, they observed the group unnoticed. Their impression:…

Chapter 57, Unsung

by Silavin — Translator: Barnnn As they always did on their days off, Ize and Hal left the inn empty-handed. Their first stop was the Guild, where they completed the loot exchange process. A receptionist handed them a small slip of paper. "You have a message from the Crafters' Guild." "Oh, thank you." As the receptionist left to appraise their loot, they unfolded the note and read: "That was fast," Hal remarked. "Because it's smaller than the…
