The next day after I built the dungeon, I had brought the knights to the newly built Knights and Magical Order's training grounds.

　And I had Sherry, Leena, Belle, Lou and the others try the dungeons early in the morning first.
　Anyway, we're running out of magic in the dungeon, so I need the four of you to help me out.
　According to Anna, there are still some functions that aren't working due to the lack of magic, so we'll just have to gather as much magic as we can.
　So while Sherry and the others were working hard, I was explaining the training grounds to the knights.

I was explaining to the knights, "Wow! Is this the new training grounds?　That's very impressive.
　At the entrance to the training grounds, in front of the gate, Alma was looking at the training grounds I had built and was amazed.

"Well. But it doesn't look like much compared to the facilities inside.

"Ho ho ho. That's exciting~~. The master is so proud of his work, I'm sure it's amazing~!
　As I was explaining, I heard a peculiarly sarcastic, or rather, peculiar voice coming from a man.

'Hey, Valls . Don't make fun of me like that, Master Leons.
　VALS. By the looks of it, I'd say she's in the mid-20s.
　He has a way of speaking that always ends in a straight line, and he's always pissed off at Bernolt.
　He's an odd one, but he's a great scout and used to be an assassin.
　The thing about this guy, and I'm afraid of him, is that he can't be evaluated.
　The only reason why his appraisal doesn't work is that we don't know that his abilities are caused by magic items, which scares me.

　Even so, I chose it simply because I had an unfounded intuition that this thing was safe.
　Well, I hope this guy doesn't become an enemy.
　Of course, I'm also considering the possibility of betrayal.
　I've decided to trust my instincts for now.

"Captain, there's nothing I can do~ It's just a habit that won't go away~~

Taku ......
　Hearing Bernold's stunned voice, we walked into the grounds of the training grounds.

"First, let's go outside to the playground. You can use it for running and physical exercise.
　As soon as we entered, I led him to a playground with grass all over it.
　On a sunny day, I thought we could practice outside, so I built a playground.

Oh, it's quite a large playground. With this, we can practice in a big group.

Right?　Then we'll go inside.
　I don't have time to spend outside, so I'm going to skip the playground briefing and just get inside the building!

''Wow. Master, is this really a training ground?　It looks like an aristocratic mansion to me?
　Hermann exclaimed in admiration at the sight as soon as he entered .
　Well, this is where my outburst started: .......
　When I started decorating the front door stage, I felt like I had to build it all right, and it ended up looking like a nobleman's mansion.

It ended up looking like a nobleman's mansion. ....... To the left of this entrance is the knight's training grounds. If you go right, you'll find the training grounds of the Order of Magic. And straight ahead is the fun part.

"Eh~. Don't be so stingy and tell me about it~~

Valls!

Yeah. Excuse me~
　Yeah, mr. Bernhardt's going to be tired from being around this guy every day.
　He's a good guy, so just be patient.

Let's go to the Order's training grounds.
　With a sideways glance at the exchange between Bernold and Vals, I walked to the left.

First, there's a training room with muscle training equipment. It's a great way to train your muscles efficiently. Come on, Hermann, try it out.
　The first room is a training room that I built from my previous life's memories.
　It's filled with muscle-building equipment.
　They'll be muscle-bound men.

　Just as I was thinking about this, Hermann was puzzled that he couldn't lift the dumbbells.
"Oh, no. ...... It's too heavy. ......

'Surprised?　It has a status override feature. So you can only enhance pure muscle strength. Pretty cool, right?
　If I had status, all these muscle training machines would be useless.
　I thought about it, and here we are.
　By the way, I've been relying on my status for my entire life and I'm just as frustrated that I can't lift a dumbbell as Hermann.
　I need to build up my strength: .......

It's awesome ...... Okay, I'm going to work on being able to lift these.

''Status-disabled and pure muscle power ...... is interesting. I'll give it a shot later.
　Bernhardt was itching to try out the strength training machine, listening to me and Hermann.

'Yeah. . try it.
　I can't let you do it now because I have to explain it to you.



Then let's move on. There are private practice rooms lined up from here. Use it when you want to practice with just one or three people.
　My Order is so individual and unique in its abilities, I wonder if I need a place to practice what I want to practice?　So I built a private practice room.

"Oh, so much private practice space ......
I'll be able to practice as much as I want with this one.
　I'm glad the knights seem to like it.

　Then we passed through the private practice room and entered a slightly larger room.
''This is a combat training room where you can fight a humanoid golem. There are levels 6-10, so you can try it later.
　Here's another one of my own creations, golems made to master the art of swordplay.

"Huh?　Why do you start at six?

''That's because levels 1-5 are not strong enough for you guys. The strength of this golem itself is level 1-5, but I'm going to have to modify it a bit: ....... While you're fighting this thing, its status is disabled and its skills are useless. How's that?　Can we take down this golem with just pure swordsmanship?

That makes sense, and I'm looking forward to it~~
　The knights, led by Barus' voice, looked eager to try it out.
　Yes, everyone is willing to try.

''Also, these golems are trying not to attack in a way that would kill them, but since there might be something that could happen if they do, they should always be used by two or more people.
　Well, we're all strong, so I don't think we'll have that many accidents.

"Yes, sir. Okay. And what if I destroy the golem?

Yeah, that's okay. In that case, it'll be fixed automatically.
　That's supposed to work.
　The moment it breaks, it's set to auto-repair.

Is that so? That'll give you some peace of mind.

　And now we're on the last big training ground.
It's the main training ground. It's easier to train in here, no matter how big the group, right?

''It's definitely a huge space. ...... Surely this is plenty of room to practice, even if there are more people there.''
　Well, this is just a normal, large gymnasium, so there's nothing special about it.

The training grounds should be like this. There's also a bathroom and a place to stay upstairs, if you want.
　It's a potent bath, so you're gonna get your fill.

Yes, sir. Well, this is far beyond anything I could have imagined.

It's too early to give that impression. The main thing is still to come.

Main~?　Oh, it's just straight ahead of you earlier, isn't it~?

Yeah, yeah. That's great.
　Then I walked back to the front door with the others.

"Straight ahead are the small, medium, and large conference rooms first. You can use them for strategy meetings and stuff.
　There are meeting rooms in the castle, but I knew you'd need them here too, so I built four small rooms, two medium rooms and a large room.

Oh, and this is the dining room?
　As I moved on, Hermann looked into the next room to confirm the answer.

Yes, I did. I've arranged for you to eat a lot of food, and I've arranged a cook and everything. By the way, you'll get a lot of free food here.

"Oh~
　When the guys heard I said free food, they started screaming.
　Are you that happy?

So what you'll find up ahead is ......

It's the stairs, isn't it?

Yeah. Stairs to the basement. Down here.

It's a big door.

Is this ...... maybe?
　The other knights have a large door that doesn't look like the basement, 'What is it?' In the midst of all this thinking, Hermann seems to have figured something out.

"Hermann was right. The dungeon. If you die in here, you'll be revived and come back here, so you don't have to worry about dying. Level up as much as you want.

'What?　Mr. Leons, could you possibly build even ...... dungeons?　Besides, you're not going to die: ......
　Alma heard my words right back.

"Yes, I do. It's for training purposes. I didn't want you to die, so I made it that way.

'Oh really, ...... it's really amazing that you can do that.



Thank you. It's my best work, so you should give it a shot. Well, it's so hard you probably won't get past the first level.

Hmm?　You don't think we can capture even a single level?

"Gufu. The captain's fighting spirit has been ignited~~~. We're in trouble~~
　At my aggravation, Bernolt became blatantly annoyed, and Balus smiled happily at that .
　What's so funny?

'Well, you should try it this afternoon then.　To give you an idea of how hard this dungeon is . Oh, right, ...... I'll give a special reward to the person who can get to each level the fastest . Now, how many years will it take to get to the tenth floor?

'd*mn you ...... guys!　I've been told this much!　We're going to capture it for sure!

Oh!
　Mm-hm. That was worth the effort. I want you to go all out.
　And give the dungeon plenty of magic.

Oh, we're out at last!
　As the knights rose to their feet, Shelly and the others came out of the dungeon.

'Oh, are all four of you out already?

'Yeah. I just came back to eat lunch after killing a level one boss. You're making it too hard!　If it wasn't for Lou, it would have been a close call!
　When Shelley said that, she seemed to be really angry.
　Ah, it was still difficult: .......
　The boss goblin that generates an infinite number of goblins is a demon.

I'm sorry. Anyway, that's what you get for completing the first level.
　Just to put Cherie in a better mood, I gave her the reward for breaking through the first level.

What's this?　Oh, a big bag of stuff. Yay. Thank you.
　Sherry smiled right away when she got a present from me.
　Well, of course it means a lot that I went out of my way to give it to you in front of the knights.

So, the princesses beat me to it, but ...... knights, are you sure you want to keep it up?
　Or maybe it was to encourage the knights.

"Boys!　I will conquer the dungeon with all the pride of a knight!　In the meantime, let's have a strategy meeting!　Hurry up and head for the conference room!
　Oh, I'm glad the conference room came in handy right away.
　I smirked as I looked at the back of my knights who were working as I expected.
