　The dungeons were managed by the Adventurers' Guild.

　The dungeon of the beginning is under the control of the Kingdom of Skye, and no one can challenge it without the permission of the Adventurers' Guild.

　The reception desk was located in a small two-story building, which was like a small village with weapon shops, tool shops, and innkeepers in the center.

"I thought it would be more lively since it is a popular dungeon."

"You need permission from the government to open a store in this dungeon."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Heh."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The stores may be small, but they are all royal stores with their headquarters in the capital.

"I see. I see. So the dungeon is owned by the state, so they are very careful in this area.

　Erica crossed her arms and nodded her head in agreement with Sam's comment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"People come to this dungeon from all over the continent, so we can't let strange stores operate here.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's true, too."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is a dungeon, after all, owned by the state.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The reputation of the surrounding stores is directly related to the reputation of the country.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"But I heard that you are planning to open more stores in the near future.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's good to see it thriving. Besides, there are too few stores for all the adventurers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I agree. But there are too many people who want to open stores in the dungeon, so it's not easy to decide.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's not easy in the country either.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Unlike here, the areas around the dungeons that I have seen all over the continent were all bustling with activity.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There were also dungeon cities, towns built around dungeons.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Dungeons enrich people's lives.

　On the other hand, they can also be dangerous because of the periodic outbreaks of monsters in the dungeon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Still, the more people stay in the dungeon, the more the returns outweigh the risks.

Come on, let's go to the reception desk. ...... seems to be busy today. Are you a registered adventurer?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Of course I do."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With that, he hands Erica his adventurer's card.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She looked at the card and clicked her tongue.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... You must be B rank. You're so cocky."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What about Erica-sama?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"--C rank. ...... Hey, what's with that triumphant look on your face!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, I don't. I don't think I'm higher in rank than you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You know what?　A C-rank at my age is pretty amazing!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"In other words, it's even more amazing that I'm younger than Erica-sama and ranked B, isn't it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ugggghh!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Apparently, he's right.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In fact, not many people Sam's age can become a B-rank adventurer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Even Sam did not become a B-rank adventurer without any hardship.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He almost died many times, and he had to go through many deadly battles to reach the rank of B.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, well, don't worry about it. Rank is not everything, you know.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Then stop making that smug face!　It pisses me off!　I'm pissed off!　Hey, really, stop making that smug face!　It pisses me off!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I don't think Erika hates me deeply since we can have such an exchange.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam can understand Erica's feelings.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Her sister, whom she admired and adored, has taken a boy she doesn't know from anywhere as her apprentice and has passed on everything she has to him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If you are in the same situation, you must be angry even if you are not Erica.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's crowded, by the way."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's how popular the dungeon of beginnings is.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It wouldn't be as popular just because it's for beginners, would it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The materials for the monsters that inhabit the beginning dungeons are always in demand. There are also good quality herbs in the dungeons, so even if you are not good at fighting, you can still make good money.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's a very good deal."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems to be an ideal dungeon for adventurers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The difficulty level is so high that even the most experienced adventurers are prepared to die if they dive too deep, and they will probably spend their entire lives just trying to get into this dungeon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I have gained a lot of experience in this dungeon. Sometimes I even went with my sister Ur."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You and Ur were very close."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We are sisters. But Urs was a court magician, so she was very busy. But she still took the occasional day off to take care of me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's typical of Ur."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Ur's caring nature seems to have always been there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam also recalls that Ur taught him many things.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"...... so I was worried when my sister suddenly disappeared."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It's understandable. A family member so dear to you has suddenly disappeared."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's not true. I thought maybe he got tired of us, or did something to offend us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In fact, Ur left his family to hide his illness and to find a successor.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, Erika and her family must have been worried because they were not informed of the reason.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is understandable that Erica would have negative thoughts.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ur doesn't hate his family.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I know!　That much!　Don't you talk about my sister!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"--Excuse me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The conversation that had been going on for so long was cut short at this point.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam tried to comfort Erica, but it seemed to have the opposite effect.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In the awkward atmosphere, Sam searched for words, but could not find any, and could only wait quietly for his turn at the reception desk.
