Halohalo
"Amaimon, at least, give me a map of the southern continent!"
Shiro and I are wandering through the pitch-black forest with no destination.
We found a few dungeon-like places along the way, and public restroom-like in a well-maintained park, but we passed through all of them.
"Father said he didn’t dare give us the map because he wanted us to enjoy the southern continent."
"What's that? We can buy a map as soon as we find a town!
Is Amaimon an idiot?"
"Finding a town and buying a map is part of the adventure!
Please don't say anything bad about Father!"
I feel kind of annoyed.
Shiro, wasn't I the best?
The reason why I'm always annoyed about Amaimon is actually due to Shiro's attitude.
"Master, you’re jealous, right!
There's no need to worry!
I thought about it a lot, but I have a little more affection for Master than I do for Father!"
Shiro read my mind and told me.
Something about that makes me extremely happy.
I feel like I can forgive Amaimon a little bit.
"Master is so simple!"
"Shut up! Don’t read people’s heads without permission!"
As we were doing this, a structure that looked like a Fortress City came into view.
"Master! A Fortress City has come into view!
Father said that there are many dungeons in the southern continent, and that sometimes powerful monsters suddenly spill out of them, and that all of them are built within a Fortress City, except for the Adventurer's Country, the [Autonomous State of Musasabi]."
"I see."
I'd rather take a break in town than listen to that kind of trivia.
After all, since I was sent away by a teleportation magic circle, I had been walking for three hours while defeating monsters.
"You're kidding……"
When I arrived at the main entrance of the Fortress City, I was disappointed.
More than 100 people were lined up in front of the main entrance.
"Do I have to line up for this?"
"It's a rule! Once you enter the town, you obey the town!"
"The population is really large..."
The continent of Atlesia, where I lived, was only a world within the Amru dungeon.
The country was surprisingly small.
The Harman Kingdom was about the size of Tottori Prefecture, famous for its sand dunes.
"That's right. And the people who look like normal people are pretty strong too!"
Shiro checks it with the appraisal eye and tells me.
Indeed, even the ordinary monsters are as strong as the monsters in the 10th level of the Amru Dungeon.
This is not a level that can be defeated by ordinary people living on the Atlesia Continent.
I saw a lot of strong people on the 35th level, but that's because they were pirates who made a living fighting, so it's unlikely that ordinary people would be this strong.
"Master, it seems the reason is that the southern continent is full of dungeons!"
Shiro reads my head and tells me.
Certainly, the number of dungeons was abnormal.
It was crazy that we found more than ten dungeons in just three hours of walking.
I think there is the Amru dungeon where we lived among them, but it is impossible to find it when there are so many dungeons.
I don't think even the inhabitants of the southern continent know all the dungeons.
"This is intentional."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, you could just go to the southern continent from the Amru dungeon normally, so why go to the trouble of using a teleportation magic circle to teleport to another location?"
"I see, Father is stopping Master from returning to Amru Dungeon after Master used up all of the free coupons for [Crescent Moon]!"
"That's right! Amaimon wants us to go on an adventure in the southern continent no matter what!"
"Why is that?"
"What he's playing is a nurturing game! We're just his toys after all!"
You could call it a devil's game, but I don't want that.
I want to live freely!
"What's wrong with that? If Father hadn’t created the Amru Dungeon, we wouldn’t have been born!"
Shiro came to a clean decision.
As we were talking, our turn came quickly.
"Is this your first time at Halohalo?"
A guard dressed like a samurai asked us.
Apparently, this Fortress City called Halohalo is a country ruled by samurai.
"Yeah"
"Did you visit Halohalo for training or something?"
"Why do you think so?"
"The sword you're wearing on your waist looks like quite a work of art."
Come to think of it, I was attacked by quite a few monsters on the way, so I kept the sword that Shiro had made for me still attached to my waist.
"Can you tell even though it’s in a sheath?"
"Yeah. Just looking at the design of the scabbard will give me an idea. Besides, it looks like the sword is overflowing with mana!"
Apparently, the sword that Shiro made was a work of art that anyone who looked at it would be able to tell.
Or rather, this guard. He's quite strong.
Even though he was completely suppressing the Touki that overflowed from within, he let out his Touki for just a moment in a way that only we can see.
"Would you like to take a look?"
For some reason, I felt a sense of familiarity with the samurai, so I showed him the sword that Shiro had made.
The samurai respectfully accepted the sword and removed it from the scabbard.
"T-This is……"
Apparently, the sword that Shiro made was so exquisite that it would frighten a real samurai.
"I've never seen such beautiful ripples.
It looks a little like the sword made by the master Oidon Tradeal.
It is feminine, or rather, it is imbued with considerable mana.
As for the rate, I would say it's Saint class.''
For some reason, the sword that Shiro made was rated.
"The name is White Spider? I've never heard that name before."
The samurai guard tilts his head.
"She made that sword!"
I pointed at Shiro proudly.
It makes me very happy when a member of my family is praised.
"What! Such a young girl! And she's not even a dwarf!"
The samurai guard was quite surprised.
Or rather, is it unusual for races other than dwarves to make swords?
That being said, I feel like the samurai guard also have some pretty good stuff strapped to his waist.
"Isn't your sword also quite a work of art?"
"This one? This is a sword that I recently obtained in the dungeon of Mofuufu, the royal capital of the [Jet Black Forest]!
Although it has no name, it is thought to be a sword made by a disciple of Don Draniel, the greatest treasure of the Dwarves.
When I submitted it for appraisal, it was rated as A grade!"
I don't know why, but he seems happy.
He probably wanted to show it off to someone.
Even so, Mofuufu Dungeon?
Is it possible to get a sword like this?
If I were to sell it at a weapon shop in Amru Fortress City, it would probably cost over 3 million gol.
"The Mofuufu Dungeon is amazing."
"Yeah, it’s a dungeon worth paying the entrance fee to enter!
If you have a certain level of strength, you can definitely get your money back!"
Somehow, it makes me want to go to Mofuufu, the royal capital of the [Jet Black Forest], as soon as possible.
The only thing I was interested in in the southern continent was the brothel [Crescent Moon] where there are succubus ladies, but I also became interested in the Mofuufu Dungeon which is full of treasures.
