I'm in a mess, starting with a meteor shower!

Liu hunched her neck.

"Yes, I thought he didn't know I existed, but the goddess told him about me, and even told him I was here. He should come back to find me when he comes out of the dungeon, so..."

"So that's why you rushed back to reveal your identity, right?"

That's how it is.

Liu nodded awkwardly.

"Ryu, what were you thinking? Giving a false identity in front of your own junior, hahaha!"

Lori pointed at Liu and burst into laughter. Seele also found it very amusing and asked Liu with a smile.

"So, Ryu, are you planning to wait for your junior to come to the store and acknowledge your identity?"

"No, this is not allowed!"

Liu firmly denied it.

Why?

Seele was very curious.

"Didn't you reveal your true identity to us because he was going to come looking for you, so you exposed it beforehand?"

"That's true, but I'm revealing my identity not so that I can face him with my real identity later, but so that you can cooperate with me and help me keep it a secret."

"what?"

The fishy smell, the quiet, the call of the lion.

In response, Liu began to explain with a serious expression.

"Because I am a wanted criminal, and a wanted criminal that the guild has specifically warned me about! Fujimaru Ritsuka is a newcomer valued by the goddess Astrea, and I must take good care of him. If he gets involved with the guild's wanted criminals as soon as he arrives in Orario, even if the guild does nothing, those bounty hunters who come for the bounty will bring him endless trouble. Those bounty hunters will definitely target him in order to catch me."

"Then... wouldn't it be fine if no one else knew?"

“No, he’s too naive. The first time we met, he revealed his identity and abilities, and even told me to come to Fengrao’s mistress to find me. I’m not sure if he told anyone else, so for his safety, I can’t let him take the risk.”

Liu clenched his fist.

“Even if he is a genius, he will get hurt when facing those ruthless bounty hunters, and that is something I cannot allow!”

That makes sense...

Mia nodded affirmatively. As a seasoned adventurer, no one here understood Orario better than her.

"So what do you want us to do?"

"If he asks, please answer that there is no one here."

Ryujin looked at Miya.

"As for me, please follow what I just said. I am just a new adventurer named Ang."

Volume 1: Chapter 10. The First Harvest

On the eleventh floor of the dungeon, several beastmen gathered together, chasing after Fujimaru Ritsuka who was running ahead.

The one being chased was not the real Fujimaru Ritsuka, but a clone he created with his Noble Phantasm. Just like before on the sixth floor, after the beastmen chased him into a blind spot, Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately turned around and charged at them. Then came a violent explosion, and the beastmen were reduced to charred fragments in the flames of the explosion.

After the firelight had completely dissipated, Fujimaru Ritsuka emerged from the shadows, picked up the magic stone from the ground, and stuffed it into her pocket.

After weighing the pocket in her hand, Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded in satisfaction.

"That's enough for today, my magic is almost used up."

While the Noble Phantasm combination is very useful, Noble Phantasms consume mana. At only LV1, he frequently uses Noble Phantasms to fight monsters, and even with minimal mana consumption, he's almost depleted his mana.

"Besides, it's about time, I should go back and have dinner with my elders."

Fujimaru Ritsuka's first time in the dungeon was mainly for the experience, so she didn't bring any supplies, not even drinking water. Now that she'd been in the dungeon long enough, it was time to head back.

However, Fujimaru Ritsuka did not immediately turn back. Instead, she walked forward for a distance, crossing the eleventh floor to reach the twelfth floor. She then earned the achievement of clearing the eleventh floor in the system and received the three Saint Quartz as a reward for clearing the eleventh floor. Only then did she immediately turn back and head upwards.

Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't remember how many floors the dungeon had. He only knew that the dungeon in the anime had been explored to about 50 floors, and that it was the Loki Familia, who were the most skilled at dungeon exploration, that had explored it.

The entire dungeon is like a pyramid buried underground. The top floor is the smallest, and the floors get larger as you go down, and even the floor heights get higher. When you get to the lower floor, the area is even so huge that a giant dragon can move around.

Floors 1-12 are considered the upper level, suitable for beginners; floors 13-24 are considered the middle level, suitable for level 2-3 players; and floors 25-36 are considered the lower level, suitable for adventurers level 3 and above, with higher adventurer levels being better.

Floors 37 to 49 are considered the deeper levels, and even advanced adventurers must form groups to ensure their safety.

Fujimaru Ritsuka went into the dungeon for the first time today and cleared all the floors from 1 to 12 that were suitable for the LV1 event. Even if she only went into the 12th floor for a quick look, it still counts as clearing the floor.

Theoretically speaking, starting from the 5th floor, it is no longer an area that ordinary LV1 newbies can operate in alone, because the number and strength of the monsters are beyond what an ordinary LV1 player can handle. But Fujimaru Ritsuka is no ordinary person.

After spending some time concealing her personal aura along the way and not wasting any time on newly spawned monsters, Fujimaru Ritsuka safely left the dungeon and returned to the square in front of the Tower of Babel.

"Oh, the timing seems perfect."

Several hours later, the sun was seen again, but it was now half-blocked by the towering walls surrounding Orario, indicating that it was already dusk.

"Go to the guild and exchange the magic stones for money."

Turning back, I entered the Tower of Babel again, but this time not to the dungeon, but to the Adventurers' Guild. This was where adventurers registered and sold their magic stones for money.

As soon as she entered the guild, Fujimaru Ritsuka heard a familiar voice.

"Welcome back, Mr. Fujimaru Ritsuka."

“Oh, I’m back, Miss Eina.”

Eina Zul, a receptionist at the Adventurers' Guild, is attracted to men who seem a bit unreliable but evoke a protective instinct in her! Unfortunately, Fujimaru Ritsuka isn't that type.

She was the one who handled Fujimaru Ritsuka's registration when she came to register, and because of that, she became Fujimaru Ritsuka's person in charge of all guild affairs from then on.

"It seems that Mr. Fujimaru Ritsuka did not encounter any danger in the dungeon."

Eina nodded with satisfaction as she saw that Fujimaru Ritsuka was spotless. As a receptionist serving adventurers, her motto was: adventurers must never take risks.

"Come help me see how much money these magic stones can be exchanged for."

Fujimaru Ritsuka handed over the bag containing the magic stones. Eina took the bag and was somewhat surprised by its weight. She then opened the bag and poured the magic stones into the plate in front of her.

Her expression froze when she saw the poured-out magic stone.

"Mr. Fujimaru Ritsuka, may I ask which floor of the dungeon you have reached?"

"We've reached the twelfth floor!"

"what!"

Eina screamed.

"You've only been in the dungeon for the first time and you've already reached the twelfth floor!"

Eina's scream drew the attention of everyone in the guild hall.

"I told you before, adventurers should never take risks. It's far too dangerous for you to go up to the twelfth floor on your first time in the dungeon!"

Is it dangerous?

Fujimaru Ritsuka spread her arms wide.

"Do I look like I've been through something dangerous?"

Eina opened her mouth slightly, but couldn't say a word.

Forget about what dangers they've been through, they don't even look like they've ever been in a fight!

"Don't worry, Miss Eina, I can tell whether it's dangerous or not. This mere upper dungeon isn't dangerous enough to put me in any danger!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka's nonchalant demeanor proved that he really wasn't under any pressure.

"Alright, Miss Eina, please exchange the money for me now. I need it for dinner."

Urged on by Fujimaru Ritsuka, Eina collected all the magic stones, and after a thorough calculation, offered a price of 3 Faris.

"To get so many magic stones on his first dungeon run, I can't even imagine what kind of achievements Fujimaru Ritsuka will have in the future."

Although I think Fujimaru Ritsuka's actions are very risky, the gains are indeed astonishing. Other LV1 adventurers can only get a few thousand Faris at most when they go to the dungeon alone, and some can only get a few hundred Faris a day. But Fujimaru Ritsuka got more than 10,000 Faris on his first try. This means that he is extremely efficient at killing monsters and is also very safe. So much so that the monsters cannot have any effect on him. He is a future master who can be seen with the naked eye.

The other adventurers nearby were already shocked by Eina's words from the previous twelve floors, and they were shocked again.

Everyone here is LV1, and you're even entering the dungeon for the first time. Why are you so strong?! Is that right?

However, some people felt that something was wrong. This newcomer didn't look like someone who had fought hard in the dungeon. Instead, his white knight's outfit made him look very rich. Rather than an adventurer, he looked more like a nobleman from some kingdom. So, these people had a thought: Could he be a boss who paid to be his own boss?

Countless people around the world want to be adventurers, and it's not uncommon for wealthy people to come to Orario to experience life as adventurers. The more this newcomer looks, the more he seems like a boss.

Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't care what others thought. After thanking Eina, he left with 3W Faris. He was going to visit his mistress, the wealthy one, to play with his senior.

As they watched Fujimaru Ritsuka leave with an air of nonchalance, the adventurers present began to whisper among themselves, filled with curiosity about this remarkable newcomer. Although the new Asteria Familia was already a hot topic in Orario, the adventurers who came to the guild at this time were those who had spent the day in the dungeon exchanging their loot, and they had not yet received any new information.

Some of the adventurers who thought Fujimaru Ritsuka was a boss because of her money got up and followed her out after she left. They felt they had to do something to make this new adventurer, who came to Orario with a lot of money to be a boss, stand in front of them.

Volume 1: Chapter 11. Hassan of the Robust EX

The Adventurers' Guild's main gate faces northwest of Orario, making the entire northwest Orario area the most concentrated area for adventurer-related shops, including the lavish Madam.

The Feast House is located on West Street, just one street away from the Northwest Street, which faces the entrance of the Adventurers' Guild. It can be reached quickly from the Adventurers' Guild.

However, Fujimaru Ritsuka was a newcomer, so he didn't know where the mistress of the mansion was. When looking for the way, he would definitely have to take a detour. This detour would easily lead him into alleys, and if he took a detour into alleys, he would easily take the wrong road and end up in a dead-end alley.

"Oh dear, it seems we've taken the wrong path, a dead end."

Looking at the blocked alley in front of her, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked distressed. Then, with a helpless expression, she turned around and looked at the people blocking the alley entrance behind her.

These people were all dressed in tattered clothes, with cloaks and hoods covering their heads, making it impossible to see their faces.

"So, you got lost too?"

Instead of answering the questions, the people being questioned made sarcastic remarks.

"Kid, you're right, you've walked a dead end!"

"But if you hand over all the money you have, we can let you go."

"So they were robbing people."

Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled. Despite being surrounded, he showed no sign of nervousness. Instead, he looked up and down at the people surrounding him and gave them his evaluation.

"To be honest, you guys are more credible than those guys outside the city."

"Those guys outside the city, not only are there a lot of them, but none of them even wear masks, as if they're afraid people haven't seen their faces. They've already shown their faces, and they still say they'll let people leave. It's so fake. If I were in their shoes, I would scatter the ashes of anyone who saw my face."

Fujimaru Ritsuka's mutterings annoyed the leader, who was there to rob them, and every extra minute increased the risk of being exposed.

"Hey! You brat, what are you saying! If you know what's good for you, hand over the money right now."

Reprimanded by the other party, Fujimaru Ritsuka refocused his attention on the group of people, out of curiosity.

"The sun hasn't even set yet, and you dare to come out and rob people? Aren't you afraid of being arrested by the military police?"

Upon hearing this question, the people blocking the road all burst into laughter.

They were initially a little anxious or worried, but now they were completely unconcerned. When Fujimaru Ritsuka said such things, they would only conclude that he was a rich good-for-nothing. What capable adventurer would mention the military police? Wasn't this just a typical case of a weak rookie trying to use the military police to intimidate others?

"Hahaha, you mean the military police? The military police have no jurisdiction over us!"

"You're saying the military police can't control you?"

"That's right! The military police only care about the streets and city gates; they don't care about these alleys."

"I see. It seems the military police are really not up to par."

Fujimaru Ritsuka shook her head; her already bad impression of the military police had worsened.

"In that case, let me take charge!"

"Huh? Are you kidding me? You're the one who should be bothered, with your mouth..."

Before he could finish speaking, a dagger was aimed straight at his face. The arrogant man was startled by the sudden appearance of the dagger and hurriedly tried to dodge, but he still couldn't avoid it.

The dagger pierced his hood, cutting it open to reveal his face. It also shaved off a patch of his hair, along with his scalp. Blood flowed from the lacerated scalp, sliding down to his chin in just two seconds.

The man finally reacted when the blood dripped onto the ground, letting out a scream of pain.

"what!!!"

The man covered his wound with his right hand and angrily pointed at Fujimaru Ritsuka.
