Extra: Rokukos Ring and Haku Raverio

Good morning! Its Rokuko!

Today, I, a dungeon core, am working the reception desk!

Since that saintess was coming here aaaaall the time lately, I wasnt able to come to the inn for safety reasons. Really, Kehmas a worry wart! But that just means he thinks of me as important its not unpleasant you know?

When I sat down at the reception desk and dangled my feet, Haku Ane-sama turned up for some reason. Chloes with her as usual, too.

Haku Ane-sama! Its been a while!

Fufufu, hello, Rokuko-chan. Is the suite open? Id like to stay the night.

Its open! Oh, do you want the usual to eat?

Yes, will Rokuko-chan eat with me? Itll be my treat.

Kehmas sleeping, but its the first time Haku Ane-samas come over in a while, so I have to give her reception my all! Ummm, I think Kehma used [Cleanup] on the suite after the saintess left, so it should be alright.

Haku Ane-sama tilted her head when she saw the box sitting on the reception counter.

What is this box? It wasnt here last time I came, was it?

Nn? This? Fu fu fu this box is called a register!

Heeh, what kind of box is that?

Mmm Suite, two people, one night! Meal, three S-Rank meals!

Reacting to my words, it spun around like the slots do and showed the cost. Sixty-five gold coins. Thats probably right it is right, right?

And thats how we calculate costs, it gives meal tickets and keys when we put money in!

Heeeh! That sounds convenient. Does it ever miscalculate?

Its more reliable than leaving it to people.

I want one of these. My duties would go faster with one of these and Id be able to visit more often.

Haku Ane-samas looking at the register earnestly. Only dungeon cores can be this cool, shes so stylish!

Nnn, Ill ask Kehma if I can sell Haku Ane-sama one.

Oh? Even without asking Kehma-san, couldnt Rokuko-chan do it on your own judgment? Also, where is Kehma-san exactly? Making Rokuko-chan work on her own

Kehma completed a huge job, so he said hell be sleeping until tomorrow.

I feel bad for Haku Ane-sama, but Kehma needs to rest. Well, he said hell wake up tomorrow so its alright, I think Hell wake up, right?

Hmph. Well, if Rokuko-chan says so, its alright. Its been so long since we last talked, so how about we use the whole day to catch up?

Thatd be amazing!

Receiving the sixty-five gold from Chloe and storing it in the register, their suite room key and three meal tickets came out.

I went to the suite together with Haku Ane-sama. Ah, I did remember to find a replacement for the reception desk you know?

So, Ive been wondering for a while now, but thats the ring you received from Kehma-san, correct?

Fueh? What? Haku Ane-sama, howd you know?

I heard about it from Hero Wataru. That guy did something really unnecessary

Oooh, I see! That Debt Hero huh. Come to think of it, I heard about it from Wataru too huh!

Though really, that ring is in strangely good taste considering it came from Kehma-san. It fits Rokuko-chan well Un? That ring, isnt it strange?

Eh? Strange? What is?

I thought it was a gemstone ring, but theres a metal ring inside it This is the first time Ive seen a ring like that. It looks quite expensive.

Fufufu, well, Im his partner!

Right, for him to hand you a ring with such spirit within it fufufu, shall we discuss it thoroughly?

It feels like theres a black aura coming from Haku Ane-sama for some reason Im definitely just imagining it.

Right?

Hey, that ring, what materials went into it?

Ummm, I think he said ruby and orichalcum?

Heeh, ruby and orichalcum huh An orichalcum ring? Moreover, within ruby? Wait a sec, thats a treasure worth tens of millions of DP!

He did say it was expensive after all but it was that much?

Can you see orichalcum rings in the catalog? Well, even if orichalcum could somehow be harvested in this mountain, it should still be expensive.

As she said, I looked in the DP catalog for [Orichalcum Ring] Mmm, decoration treasure category, orichalcum 1,000,000 DP?

It says 1,000,000 DP

Yeah. The method of processing orichalcum is a dwarven secret, it takes so much time to process that even dwarves need a year to make an orichalcum sword. Although it should be more simple to make a ring, I feel that is a proper amount of DP for it.

Ooo

When did Kehma get the chance to prepare the ring? Ah, but looking at the materials it looks like its just 10,000 DP. Our villages blacksmith is a dwarf too, so did he ask him? Ah, itd be [Create Golem] for Kehma though wouldnt it? Since theres ruby too it feels like Im not wrong.

Mmm, I cant say that to Haku Ane-sama though!

Ah, come to think of it, this village has a dwarf blacksmith. Maybe he asked him?

Even so, I cant figure out how it was buried inside ruby.

So that was it after all Uu, its so hard not telling her! I think itd be better to tell Haku Ane-sama more, but I absolutely cant tell her about [Create Golem]!

That ring, would you give it to me for 100,000,000 DP?

Wha!? N-no! Not this!

Dangerous, my heart swayed a little there. 100,000,000 DP would be enough to summon an ancient dragon, I couldnt help it!

But Kehma could easily prepare a few more of these rings, so it would be an easy way to get 100,000,000 DP from Haku Ane-sama.

That man, I have to purge him after all, dont I?

Excuse me, Haku Ane-sama? Umm, s-somethings leaking out.

Oh, sorry. Ufufufu.

Haku Ane-sama who smiles so gracefully, what are you angry about? Ahh, maybe youre thinking its wasted money? Well, it didnt really cost that much to get though.

After that, we talked about the saintess and Rin, as well as the game room. It seems that the effects of [Treaty] changes depending on the person who uses it too.

Other than that, I welcomed her with all I had and took a bath together, ate lunch together, slept together, and when I invited her into my room in the village chiefs mansion, Kehma woke up.

And now hes on the ground prostrating to Haku Ane-sama. He looks so natural doing it.

Un, that was a beautiful dogeza! Full marks on pitiability and resolution!

Ah, it looks like shell forgive him for something with him giving her a register?

I dont get whats going on, but as expected of Kehma!
