14 Verification




...... Hey, come to think of it, Leffy, you can't see this.

 I said, "On and on! It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're looking for," asked Leffy next to her, looking at Fenrir, who is prowling around the throne room with one person and one animal on his back, listening to the pleas of Iruna and Shi, who seems to be insisting on the same thing, jumping up and down.

"Hm? Ability value display? Mm, you don't see it.

No, I'm not actually looking at the status.

 I'll explain the menu lightly.

"I see. I see that your ability to pull off wonders is due to your dungeon.

And it seems that Iruna can see it, right?

Hmm ...... I understand what you're asking. Well, I don't know why the little girl sees it, but I can tell you the difference between me and the little girl.

What's the difference?

That's right, you've made a marriage ceremony (・・・・) with that girl's daughter.

".................. Heh?

 Look at the face of Leffi next to you, letting out a dumb voice.

Blood is an important element of the body. Taking a part of it into your body is the so-called s*xual act. Therefore, to the vampire race, sucking blood is a marriage ceremony. Well, there are some low moral vampires who will suck blood without restraint, but most will only do it from someone they really like. That's the kind of thing you take for a mate.

 --What is that fact . What a fact.

"But blood is an important food source for vampires, isn't it? They can't all be married, so what do they do?

They don't need blood itself. Or some animal's. That's what most unmarried vampires do. Well, maybe the girl hasn't been taught this in detail yet, but bloodsucking is rooted in instinct. There's no doubt that she really wanted the man you're talking about, even at such a young age. Good.

 I was taken aback by the new revelation that Reffi told me.

"Hey, why didn't you tell me?

"? Well, if you're a pedophile, that's what you want, isn't it? They were excited when they saw me naked.

"I'm not excited about this!

 This guy, he's still so wrong: ......!

 It was then that I realized and hurriedly opened the DP income section of the menu.

 You can see the details of what you got your DP from: ...... Ugh, just as I thought.
 You still get a huge DP from Lefi, while your DP income from Iruna is zero. Just like the dungeon monster Shi.

 Even the goblin children I had the chance to see while exploring outside had an income of 3 DPs.

 In other words - Iruna is not an intruder, but is considered to be a relative to the dungeon.

It's a good thing that you're able to have a good time with your friends and family. ...... Normally, you're a self-righteous person, but at a time like this, you're wasting your time and attention. ......

"Hey, what's with the language! I didn't tell you because I was doing you a favor!

It's none of your business! You're going to be without candy for three days from today!

"Huh? Insolence! I'm going to protest categorically!

 Ignoring the screaming Lephi, I let out a deep sigh.

 Iruna hasn't come to me with a craving for blood since last night.

 It's a good thing that you're not going to have to worry about it.

 ...... That's it, it's a procrastination strategy anyway.

 I'm glad to hear that Iruna likes me, but a child's affection is often a transient thing.
 I'm sure that when she grows up, she will say, "I hate you, man! I'm sure you'll say. Oh, I'm getting a little sad now.

 ...... Well, well, so I didn't know about it until I was older anyway. I'm sure you'll be able to find it. Vampire biology? I don't know anything about that? It's . That's the deception. Mm.

 ...... So, if you still like me when you grow up....

--then I'll really think about it.


   * * * *


 After deciding on a course of action against Iruna, I pulled myself together and quickly went through the cave before the throne room with my magic dagger in hand to test the performance of my new toy or item.

 The magnificent nature spread out below me.  
 Normally, my heart dances whenever I see this, but right now, my heart is more excited to see it in my hand.

 I never thought I'd have to shoot a gun for the first time in a different world: .......
 Well, I'm not sure if I can put this in the category of a gun or not. The name has "gun" in it, so let's say it's okay.

 I pour the magic power, which I've only recently been able to circulate smoothly without any particular concentration, into the magic short gun in my hand.

 As a first step, I check the status screen and stop pouring out my total magic amount, MP, when it has been reduced by 10 exactly.

 Then, I aim the gun at the rugged rock a little further away and shoot it, just like in the movies.

 A light recoil.
 A moment later, after a sharp sound of air escaping, there's a momentary lag and a gurgling sound, as if something hard is being gouged out.

 I walked right up to the rock where I fired and traced my finger behind the bullet hole.

 So this is what it looks like at ...... 10.  

 You can see that the surface of the rock has been slightly scraped off, presumably after the shot.

 ...... I'm pretty sure the power of the gun depends on the amount of magic you can put into it.

 In order to load the next round, I poured the magic power into my hand while checking the status again.


   * * * *


 --The following is the result.

 10: The surface of the rock is scraped.


 100: A hole in the rock.
 500: A hole in the rock goes through to the other side.
 1000: A cannon-sized bullet is fired and gouges the rock.
 5,000: At the end of the barrel of the gun, something like a thick beam is fired, completely consuming the target rock and flattening the mountainside behind it by gouging out about 30 meters.

............

 The result makes me mute.

 ...... This may have been more of a hit than I thought.

 I'm sure I'll be able to get my money's worth with this one, even though I was in a bit of a shell game afterwards.

 As for the power of ......, I don't need five thousand for sure. I don't need a thousand.

 Well, when I spent five thousand, the barrel of the gun was shaking violently. As for the gun's performance, any more and it's probably at its limit.

 I've actually wanted to spend all of my magic at full force ...... but I think it's wise not to.

 In order to load multiple bullets, it seems that you need to stop the magic flowing and then re-fill it.
 Therefore, you can increase the magic power to 100 for the first shot, 1000 for the second, and so on.

 That's quite an advantage.
 The first shot is limited to 10 MP to make it seem as if it's not very powerful, while the second shot is for 1,000 MP to catch the opponent off guard.

 Well, there's no need to do that, but if you pour 5000 or even 3000 magic power into it from the beginning, it will be enough to choke the opponent.

 It seems that there is a mechanism to keep the magic power in the chamber from leaking, and it doesn't seem to be leaking at all when checked by the magic eye.
 I'm sure it's safe to leave it loaded at this rate, but after seeing the ...... that I saw earlier, I'm not sure. If the gun goes off or something like that, I'm afraid of it, so I'll never leave it loaded.

 It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you'll be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

You're going to be able to find out more about this. Thank you.

 The second dungeon monster to appear in my dungeon, Fenrir.

 The fact that he looks a little tired suggests that he's been working with me since I left the throne room.
 Before I left, Reffi, who was desperate after getting banned from eating sweets, joined in and made a scene. No wonder she was tired.

 As I said this, Fenrir sat down and let out a "coo" and bowed his head as if to say "I'm sorry".
 The wolf reeks of a hard worker.

 I had a hunch that this was the case, and the arrival of this man convinced me that he could communicate with the dungeon demons I made appear.

 Although there is no clear communication, I can roughly understand what it wants to say.
 I'm sure that this is the same kind of communication between the two demons.

 By the way, this wolf is a male, and was named by Iruna as "Mofuril".
 It's because he's fluffy and his race is Fenrir. When I checked his status, I found that his name was firmly registered in the nameless column.
 I felt a bit sorry for him, to be honest.
 I was the one who told Iruna that her race was Fenrir, but it may have been a mistake. No, no, that's not it.

 When I call you, I'll just take your back and call you 'lil'.

Hey, you got some interesting skills. I'd like to see it.

 Lil had seven skills.

 Unique skills: divine speed, universal chains, body transformation
 Skills: nail fighting lv II, ice magic lv IV, lightning magic lv IV, crisis detection lv IV

 The three things I was interested in were the Speed of God, the Universal Chain, and the Body Change.
 When I told him that, Lil nodded and stood up quickly, activating the skill.

 Godspeed is apparently a movement speed increase skill. When activated, it allows you to move at an invisible speed, if only for a moment.
 The Manka no Chains let you create chains from around you, allowing you to move them at will. The thickness and strength of the chains seem to depend on the magic they contain.
 For the final body transformation, you can make your own body larger or smaller, and even become an ordinary wolf. I was wondering what to do with the cramped room, but it looks like there's no problem.

"Whoa, cool!

 Especially the universal chains are too cool . How versatile they are.
 The chains were used to make shields and scaffolding in the air. It also seems to be able to restrain opponents in general, and depending on how you use it, it looks pretty powerful.

 I'd love to get one too, but ...... is unfortunately a unique skill. You'll probably have to put a lot of DP into it even if you can get it.

 I'm sure he's happy when I praise him. I'm sure you'll be able to see the difference in their expressions, but their tails and tails are wagging happily from side to side, as if they're in a good mood.

............

 While looking at it, a desire arises in me.

 Following that desire, I immediately opened the catalog of the menu, exchanged it for a DP and threw it far away.

Come on, Lil, get it!

"----!

 I threw a Frisbee.

 The moment Lil saw it, he looked conflicted and hesitated somewhat, but he couldn't resist the temptation of instinct.
 I'm sure you'll be able to catch it in the air. Then it comes back to me.

There you go!

 After receiving the Frisbee from Lil, I took the Frisbee from him and threw it far away again with all my abilities as a demon king.

"Wa-ha-ha-ha, oh no, wait, stop, phew!

 I take the Frisbee home, and I'm pushed to the ground by Lil, who seems to be having fun with it, with his full weight on me.

d*mn, you did it!

 Grinning at that, I stretched out my arms to the huge body above me and began to respond to Lil's teasing with all my might.


   * * * *


"Ha, ha, ha. ...... It's Fenrir, big deal. ......

 So after playing for a while, lying on the ground, I don't know what the big deal is, but I can't help but gasp.



 I've always been more of a cat person than a dog person. ...... When I played with them, I realized that dogs are cute too. It's not a dog.

 I'm sure you'll be able to find the right one for you.

 I wonder if it's a matter of pride for Lil to follow her instincts. For me, I'm fine with just having fun.

 But still, Iruna got a great guy.

 As well as skills, this Fenrir, when I checked the list of monsters that could appear, was one of the fastest monsters in terms of DP requirements.

 Well, there is still a long way to go, but if he continues to grow, he might be able to compete for the top spot in this world, just like the Fenrir that Leffi said he struggled with in the past.

"-- Hey, Lil, do you know the magic of the dungeon?

 When you ask this question while lying down, the lil next to him only raises his head from his prone position and shakes his head in affirmation with a smile.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this as well. I want you to live there and hunt demons.

 She will surely die if you let her fight, and she's my pet, so I let her stay with me, but Lil, whose initial status is higher than mine, has the power to fight.
 It would be a disservice to let it lie dormant. I need you to work hard and earn your DP.

 Work hard, work hard and be strong. And make it easy on me.

You can live the rest of your life the way you want to. Well, I'm going out, so we'll play or hunt together again. --But you're my son now. So come back to show me up, okay? Iruna would be sad too.

 --This is your home.

 Then Lil said and bowed to me.
