4 Understand the status quo3




 The Next Day .

 After sleeping and clearing my head, I put away my bedding set in the item box, and then display the DP catalog to look for groceries for breakfast.

 The item box is designed to create a crack in the void when activated, and you'll stick things into it.
 When I wondered what I had to do to get it out, something like a list appeared in my brain, and I remembered that I had to put my hand into the crack in the void to retrieve the item. That's convenient.

 By the way, how is it possible to know the time of the next day or breakfast in a windowless room?
 It's a game! But then I thought about it and realized that I was being used as a game screen reference.

 Having brought out 15 DPs and 30 DPs of bread and bacon for breakfast, I sat down on my throne and began to eat.

 I need to figure out how to get the DP. I have 1000 DP, as it seems to be my first point, but this is my lifeline now.
 It's a little awkward for me to just disappear.

 There are several ways to get DP.
 In dungeons, there are intruders in the dungeon that are not under your control (increase DP for strength).
 Kills an intruder in the dungeon (increases DP for strength).
 Absorb a corpse or other sustenance in the dungeon (depending on the object, you will gain DP).
 Natural recovery (increased DP acquired by the scope of the dungeon).
There are four types of dungeons.

 As you can see, DP income is dependent on intruders.
 You create administrators to keep them from being killed by intruders, but you can't secure your food without them.

 Well, it's the law of the jungle. Dungeons are living things too. I suppose you can't escape the yoke.

 While there is natural recovery, it's a fairly meager 1DP recovery in three hours, so we don't know what will happen in the future, but for now, we can't rely on it too much.

 We need to set up the game as a dungeon as soon as possible, but in order to do so, we need to find out what kind of existence and perception of dungeons and demon kings are.
 The rest is geography. We need to know that as soon as possible.

 You know, if you don't know the demand, you can't create the supply, or something like that. A hazy knowledge of a previous life.

 I didn't understand it, because the information in my brain's Wikipedia that was forced into the dungeon only described the intruder from the dungeon's perspective.

 He said that they were "like demons coming to kill us".

 Well, yeah, I guess so. A being coming to kill you would look like the devil.

Well, and ......

 After finishing my breakfast, I brush the crumbs from my hand and turn my gaze to the only door in the room.

 For now, the most urgent thing I have to do is to see what's ahead.

 It's half curious and half horrible to see what's going on ...... but we have to start here first.

 After making some preparations, I stood up and went to the other side of the room, where I opened the beautiful door with a look of fear and trepidation.


...... cave, huh?


 Extending out of the door was one huge hollow.

 Crystal-like stalactites of a curious size hung down and reflected the light coming through a small crack in the cave's ceiling, illuminating the surroundings.
 There is a pool of water in the cave, which may be low in impurities, but it is quite transparent and crystal clear.

 It's quite a fantastic sight.  

 It seems that this doorway was created inside the cave.
 Since the dungeon area is still only in that throne room, this cave must have been natural rather than created by the dungeon.

 After making sure that there are no other creatures around, I walk towards the sunshine coming in from what appears to be the exit...or rather the entrance of the cave a little further on.

 The sound of my footsteps echoed with a clunk, clunk.
 The air is cool and comfortable on my skin. I don't need air conditioning in summer.

 Soon, when I reach the entrance, my vision opens up.



 --The clear, limitless azure sky.



 A vast green forest fills the field. The wind rustles the trees, and if I listen carefully I can hear the rustling of leaves.
 In the light of the sun, sparkling is a long, long stretch of the great river.

 The endless horizon and the majestic mountain ranges that break through the clouds and overwhelm all who see them.
 Is the vast blue color that stretches beyond the horizon an ocean?

 In the distant sky, a kind of island floats in the distance, and a waterfall flows from it, rainbows falling from the sky to the earth.

 Wow. ......

 The beauty of the scenery was so great that my eyes became hot.

 I'm not sure how to describe it with my poor vocabulary, but it's a mysteriously magnificent world.

 ...... I'm no longer human and I've got wings, I hope I'll be able to fly in the sky here soon. I'm sure it will feel great.

 By the way, I don't have wings on my back right now.
 I was trying to figure out if I could make them smaller or fold them more neatly because they were getting in the way when I was sleeping...then they disappeared.

 These wings seem to be made up of a power or magic power that I still don't understand, and they can be turned on and off at will, so I've kept them off ever since. What a convenient body!



 After being enchanted by the scenery for a while, I came back to my senses and went back to my original purpose, to check the geography of the area.

 It looks like we're halfway up the mountain. Even though it is a hillside, the altitude may be high enough to see such a view. There doesn't seem to be any human settlements anywhere near .......

 As I look back, I see a sheer cliff.
 The cave you just saw was built into this cliff.

 Uh, ...... doesn't look like we'll be able to proceed this way. I want to go up for now.

 Thinking about this, I started walking through the mountains to look for somewhere to climb.
