Chapter 141
The day after we sent the letter to the principal .
The four of us went into the dungeon .
To begin with, we came to the dungeon city to explore the dungeon .
It's going to take some time before the letter reaches the king anyway, we should wait for it while we engage in the dungeon exploring .
"So this is the dungeon's gate . . . . "
"I've heard about the rumor, but this door looks really huge in person . . . . "
Alma sounded astonished when we arrived at the closed gate that led to the dungeon .
True, the door installed on this gate is huge .
It probably weights several tons at least .
Looks like it's installed here to stop monsters from coming out of the dungeon in an emergency .
However . . . .
"Huh? Is this door made of ordinary iron?"
"Yeah . It's just an ordinary iron . It breaks easily . "
I replied to Iris .
Yes . This door is just a hunk of iron .
Dungeon Rampage isn't simple enough to be stopped by this stuff .
Iris in her dragon form could easily break it with a kick .
Thus, we went inside the dungeon while worrying more about the dungeon city .
"It's bigger than the dungeon in the academy . . . but you know, it's kinda ordinary . . . "
"Apparently, there should have been more people on the floors above . . . . "
The inside of the dungeon really was ordinary .
The monsters aren't particularly strong and there aren't that many people around .
There are traces of many people having hunted here, however . . . looks like there's not a lot of them today .
It might have to do with people having been injured in the battle yesterday .

Several adventurers show up as we advance on .
There are cases of adventurers attacking other party to plunder money and stuff in a dungeon, but . . . . Looks like there's no need to be wary here .
I don't feel any hostility from them .
"Ou, that's some young party you have there . What are you guys doing in the dungeon?"
The adventurers stopped slightly away from us and talked .
"Just as you can see, we're exploring the dungeon . "
" . . . You'd better not and turn around today . That monster from before might have gone up the floor . "
The monster from before . . . . He's talking about the monster the ruler failed to defeat huh .
It's a great news for me if that monster is still alive though .
"Are you talking about the monster from the failed subjugation?"
"Yeah . Last we checked, it was on floor 11 . However, that type of monsters is hard to read . It's impossible to beat that thing in the first place anyway, so you'd better give up exploring the dungeon today . "
Dungeon monsters usually don't move between floors .
However, special kind of monsters that are sometimes spawned can do it .
True, if you're not confident enough, you probably should not go into the dungeon today .
" . . . Thank you for your advice . We'll hunt for a bit on some shallow floor and go back early today . "
"T-thank you very much!"
"Take care!"
We advance through the dungeon .
Let's follow their advice and go fight on shallow floors .
Or more specifically . . . . Until we got to a floor with strong monsters on it .
