Chapter 82

Chapter 82 – 100 Million Player

Today, I did my usual routine right as the sun rose .

Nihonium Dungeon, 5th floor .

Where the Dungeon Snow was pouring down in this limestone cave, and there I was fighting with a red bone, I mean a Red Skeleton .

The Red Skeleton that has absorbed the Dungeon’s Magic and was strengthen up, making it thrice as fast as a normal Skeleton .

What’s more, I was fighting several of these .

As the three Red Skeleton inched closer to me, I grabbed hold of my gun and fired normal bullets at them .

Two bodies were hit pretty badly by my bullet, but one of it dodged my bullet and moved back .

The one that moved backwards instantly dashed in front of me and kicked my stomach before backing off into a distance .

It was a brilliant “Hit and Away” move for a monster .

[It’s getting even faster!] (Ryouta)

After it backed off when it kicked me—-in other words, it jumped backwards from me but, immediately after it’s speed increased and went right behind me .

I immediately felt something flew beside me, and the Red Skeleton swung it’s arm down, giving me a sharp cut through the air .

This Red Skeleton which only absorbs the Dungeon Snow when it sees human approaching it, if I don’t swiftly defeat it then it would be extremely difficult to defeat it if it absorbs even more Dungeon Snow .

Pan!

Even though I shot a normal bullet at it, it dodged with great mobility .

Rattle, rattle, rattle .

After dodging my bullet it’s bones were shaking at a tremendous speed .

It’s as if it’s laughing—-it’s as if it’s making fun of me .

[…… . ] (Ryouta)

The Red Skeleton once again drew closer to me at a high speed, but I held my gun .

It turned around right as I held my gun and went behind me in an instant—-but .

[Too ignorant!] (Ryouta)

I pretended to take him on seriously and instead went behind him .

My Speed S is not just there to be decorated, as my speed can be compared with the Red Skeleton . ]

As it was moving, I’ve made the initiative to move behind him before he could reach behind me .

I didn’t attack right away, as I moved and lightly strike at him to confirm something .

Again I moved, capture him, and lightly strike at him .

After repeating that for around 5 minutes .

The Red Skeleton was finally faster than me .

I could not move behind him and my attack did not go through .

[5 minutes huh, seems like the Red Skeleton has surpassed S Speed . ] (Ryouta)

It was on a whim that I decided to test this .

And the result, was that before it can be faster than me, it has to take 5 minutes before it could surpass my speed .

Let’s remember this .

I then took out my gun, dual wielding it I loaded the Bullet Enhancer one after the other, and finally loaded a Homing Bullet .

The bullet then chased after the Red Skeleton . The Red Skeleton’s speed was fast to the point that I can see afterimages of it moving, but no matter how fast it was the Homing Bullet still chased after it and finally hit it’s back .

Firing two bullets at it, the bones finally shattered, and a seed dropped on the ground .

I picked it up, and it increased my MP .

Ability up, and also testing some stuff .

Doing my usual routine in the morning, and as it was about to reach afternoon my MP has been increased from E to D .

A restless afternoon

Teruru Dungeon, first floor .

Defeating the Slime, it dropped beansprouts .

I kept my gun away and continued pushing my Magic Cart, and any Slime that flew to my direction, I just grabbed hold of it and squeeze it right on top of the Magic Cart and continued on .

It was something I made up a few days ago called <Super Cart Style> .

After the beansprouts was filled up, I did not leave the dungeon but instead pushed a button to send all the beansprouts away .

A rumbling sound was heard, and the cart was empty .

I then continued hunting for more Slimes to get dem beansprouts .

After a while the cart was filled up once again, and again towards my house—it was being sent to our house where Elza was dispatched to take them .

Because I wanted to sent these I was restless right now .

To the point where I did not even count the amount, more like I do not have the luxury of doing so .

It was because once the cart was full I had to quickly clear it up and collect more beansprouts .

It wasn’t just the beansprouts, I needed to head to the third floor and get some Pumpkins .

Also the fourth floor’s bamboo shoots, and the fifth floor’s watermelon .

Because of that, I did not have the time to calculate the exact earnings I’d gotten .

So restless .

After finally finishing my task, I wanted to know the results, but I got frustrated during the process of doing this .

I wanted to return and know of the result, but I was lost in thoughts several times, and decided to endure it and continued hunting .

Thus, my entire afternoon was taken to do this .

Not going out of the dungeon once, I was hunting monsters nonstop .

☆

Evening, as I returned to my three-story house, Emily and Celeste was already at home waiting for me at the first floor .

[Welcome back nanodesu . ] (Emily)

[Welcome home . ] (Celeste)

[I’m back . Were you counting?] (Ryouta)

The first floor basement for Magic Cart, there was makeshift office .

Over there was Elza with papers stacked high up as she was writing at a fast pace .

As I looked at what she was doing, there were plenty of numbers being written, so I guess she was calculating today’s total earnings .

[So how was everyone?] (Ryouta)

[I’m still not sure . After finished counting, we wanted to wait for Ryouta-san to return before announcing it all together . ] (Celeste)

[This is the first time nanodesu, that I am eager to know how much we earned nodesu] (Emily)

[Same here . In the middle of hunting I wanted to know so badly that my focus was all over the place, so I assumed that today’s efficiency would be worse than usual . ] (Ryouta)

[I understand that feeling desu . ] (Emily)

Emily showed her consent .

Hopefully by tomorrow I won’t be this restless and my efficiency would be back to normal again, so I thought that if the earning for today would fall, it doesn’t matter anymore .

Whilst thinking about it we waited for awhile, and finally Elza put down her pen and looked up .

[Thank you for your hard work . Is the calculation over?] (Ryouta)

[Yes . The total earning of everyone today is—–] (Elza)

[Aahh, please give us the individual’s earning first . ] (Ryouta)

[Eh? Oh, okay . Then first off, Celeste-san earning was 156551Piro . ] (Elza)

[Previously Celeste’s earning was around 100k right?] (Ryouta)

[I’m genuinely surprised… . an increase of 1 . 5 times… . ] (Celeste)

Even the person herself had a face as if she couldn’t believe it .

[Next is Emily-san . It’s 273972Piro . ] (Elza)

[Eeeeehhhh!!! Th, that much desu?] (Emily)

[Yes, I’m not mistaken . ] (Elza)

[Emily you’re amazing~] (Ryouta)

[It, it’s because of Yoda-san desu >W<] (Emily)

[No no that’s not it, earning 270k is an amazing achievement . ] (Ryouta)

[What does that mean desu?] (Emily)

[I’ve previously calculated this but, if you earn a total of 270k a day, then after a year you would have earned a total of 100 Million . ] (Ryouta)

[Eeeeeeehhhhhh!!!??] (Emily)

[100 Million…that is indeed amazing . ] (Celeste)

Emily who was shocked beyond belief, and Celeste who caught her tongue while speaking .

Of course it’s not like we go and dive into the dungeon each day, nevertheless 270K a day is something symbolic and something to look as a point of arrival .

[Congratulations Emily, You finally earned the achievement of 100Million Player . ] (Ryouta)

[Come on… . . It’s all because of Yoda-san’s help desu…] (Emily)

Emily’s cheek was dyed red, and smiled brightly while being embarrassed .

She seemed to be really happy about it .

[Well then… . last is me then . ] (Ryouta)

Again I felt restless .

Looking at Elza, I waited for my total earning .

In my mind I was picturing someone doing a drumroll for me as my heart was racing even faster .

[As for Ryouta-san, it’s 2999808 Piro . ] (Elza)

[Ooooh!! Ooh? Aah…… . just shy away of 3 Million… . ] (Ryouta)

In that one moment I had so many feelings hitting me all at once .

I was happy of my new record, but then it was unfortunate that I did not hit 3 Million .

A lot of feelings hit me right in the heart(Kokoro) .

But .

[Awesome, as expected of Ryouta-san . ] (Celeste)

[Eh?] (Ryouta)

[A 1 Billion Player nanodesu!] (Emily)

[… . Ooh . ] (Ryouta)

100 Million was indeed huge so I responded quickly, but I soon understood immediately that it was in billions .

A Billion Player huh… . Un, it might be more awesome than I initially thought .

At night, I wasn’t able to sleep as my excitement was rising ever so high .
