Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

Whether it's God registering for His own people or registering on His own.

You need the guild's permission to go to the dungeon.

Every life is precious, and the guild will try its best to remind adventurers of this.

New adventurers are advised to join the teams of experienced players to experience dungeons first, and then gradually explore them.

Instead of venturing into the dungeon alone, which is never as friendly as adventurers imagine, one can easily lose their life if they are not careful.

People like Emiya Shirou, who don't even have any special privileges, are not allowed to go to the dungeon.

Going there would only lead to certain death.

"I see--"

Emiya Shirou sincerely apologized to them.

"If you want to explore the dungeon, Emiya, you'd better accept the blessing of the High God first."

The elf girl, with short brown hair, emerald green eyes, and glasses, explained this to Shirou Emiya.

If only all adventurers were like Shirou Emiya, able to listen to advice.

"Thank you very much, Miss Eina."

"I look forward to you becoming an adventurer—"

Eina also smiled and wished Emiya Shirou well.

She also provided Shirou Emiya with some basic information about the clan.

After all, besides being a service window attendant for the dungeon management organization "Guild," she is also an adventure consultant, whether you are already an adventurer or want to become one.

She would offer her opinions.

In her opinion, Shirou Emiya still has a good chance of joining various Familias and becoming an adventurer.

Whether it's their attitude or their physical condition.

Eina also noticed the calluses on Shirou Emiya's hands from gripping the sword and bow.

Such a child would likely be accepted by many families.

only----

Emiya Shirou took a short sword with a chain attached from his red cloak.

Since Hephaestus couldn't make him a member of her Familia, Shirou Emiya didn't need to try to find other Familias one by one.

Moreover, Shirou Emiya wasn't particularly interested in receiving divine gifts.

For Shirou Emiya, being able to receive a divine blessing is a wonderful thing.

But it's unacceptable, and it won't frustrate Shirou Emiya.

He is not the kind of person who is preoccupied with gains and losses.

"An underground city?"

Emiya Shirou concealed himself at the corner, bypassed the guards, and headed towards the entrance to the dungeon.

This was something that Emiya Shirou could do nothing about.

He naturally understood what Eina was worried about, and if he were in her shoes, he would also stop such behavior.

However, Shirou Emiya only needs to bypass the guild members.

Because only they knew that they were not adventurers.

Adventurers cannot see the ability values ​​of other adventurers.

No one would hold up an adventurer's badge to prove they are an adventurer.

Moreover, if you are just an ordinary person who insists on going to the dungeon, almost no one will stop you.

It's just suicide; those adventurers are used to it.

The moment I stepped into the dungeon, the surroundings instantly became dark.

Chapter 426 The Mysterious Dungeon

Orario is known as the labyrinth city, not because it has a lot of buildings, but because moving around in this city is like walking through a maze.

It's the underground city here.

It's not just a place to fight monsters; it's also a complex maze.

The terrain inside is not only complex and varied, but it also has multiple floors.

According to the guild elf lady, the deeper the floor and the farther it is from the ground, the stronger the monsters inside become.

"If you are a novice adventurer, it is best to only fight in the first few floors, unless you have joined a party, don't go too deep."

These are Miss Eina's original words.

Many adventurers ventured into the dungeon together.

But apart from the group that had been gathered together, they soon began to disperse.

One can only marvel at how the dungeon truly lives up to its name as a labyrinth, with so many paths that it's impossible to count them all.

Dozens of teams thus easily separated on the first floor.

This doesn't even include the subsequent floors.

The entire underground city appears to be quite large.

Emiya Shirou arrived at the dungeon after being freed from the "possessed by demons" state.

After all, no one really knows him, so Shirou Emiya doesn't need to hide his whereabouts all the time.

But for some reason, although the underground passage was very dark, it was not completely dark either.

There is almost no need to use torches for illumination.

The surrounding rock walls constantly emitted a faint light, providing adventurers with some illumination of their surroundings.

However, it is the first layer closest to the ground.

It is the safest place in the entire underground city.

It's not just because the monsters it spawns are weak.

The main reason is that the dungeon does not have a teleportation function.

Whether you are the lowest-ranking adventurer or an adventurer revered by countless people.

We must go through each and every step of the way.

Therefore, the first level, which almost all adventurers have to pass through, has been cleared over and over again.

There are even cases where you don't see any monsters at all, from the first floor to the second floor.

And that's exactly the situation Emiya Shirou is in now.

I wonder what kind of expression he made when he saw the stairs leading to the next floor.

Was I lucky or unlucky?

His original intention was not to navigate the maze, but to see the monsters in the dungeon.

Shirou Emiya could only scratch his head and walk down to the next floor.

Keep in mind that he was actually still in a maze, and finding the passage to the next level without knowing the map at all was quite lucky.

However----

"This... this must be the tenth floor!"

Shirou Emiya not only didn't see any monsters, but he also made his way from the first floor to the tenth floor without any hindrance.

Very strange.

But Shirou Emiya didn't know what to say.

After all, this was his first time entering the underground city.

Is it really possible for someone to travel from the first floor to the tenth floor without encountering a single monster?

Emiya Shirou pondered that he didn't have the cross-shaped rapier that could make him incredibly lucky—[Azure].

Accompanied by phosphorescent light like sunlight, moss seeped out from the walls, and the ground was no longer as barren as before, with fresh-looking weeds, and thick white mist spread throughout the floor.

Emiya Shirou thought that dungeons only had those kinds of passageways.

If you were surrounded by monsters in such a maze-like and intricate path, it would be very difficult to escape.

"Roar--!"

A roar erupted from within the thick fog.

One after another, monsters with sharp, pointed fangs slowly emerged from the wall.

They are incredibly large, with explosive muscles clearly visible bursting from their bodies.

His scarlet eyes were fixed on Shirou Emiya, who appeared at the entrance to the tenth floor, as if he had spotted his prey.

"So, these are the monsters from the dungeon?"

Emiya Shirou muttered to himself in a low voice, drawing his twin pistols from under his night hat.

If there is no need to use magic to project, Shirou Emiya should try to avoid using magic to project.

His magical power was not high to begin with.

However, both Unlimited Blade Works and the release of the true names of some Noble Phantasms require a large amount of magical energy to support them.

Therefore, Shirou Emiya also placed some of his projected creations inside the Noh hat.

In non-urgent situations, Shirou Emiya usually chooses to take out items from the Noh hat rather than project them directly.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"
