Pre-Dungeon Battle Party

Its finally the day before the Dungeon Battle.

The preparatory phase has been going pretty well with a few things happening here and there, so lets say that the adventurers are well enough accustomed to the rabbit dungeon.

By the way, the reason there isnt much else for me to talk about is because I was spending most of the preparatory phase sightseeing around the Imperial Capital. Yeah, so Ive been using the heck out of [Teleport]. Convenience is king. The magical power it needs hasnt been an issue either since it recovers quickly enough.

So, what were we up to now? We were having a motivational party hosted by Haku-san.

This time, the dungeons mainly Oranges, so it wasnt hosted at Haku-sans villa, but was rather in the form of catering at [Rabbit Paradise]. Due to that, Aidi, Orange and everyone was able to join as well.

By the way, Haku-san was openly sponsoring this, so it felt like some kind of midnight launch event. It was so much fun I decided to bust out some sparkling wine to drink.

Honestly, whether you win or lose this, its alright.

is what she said. Yeah, now that everything was prepared, there wasnt much else left to say. Rather, itd be going too far if theyOrange expected anything else after getting so much help after finding themselves in a pinch.

Given that, as Haku-san said, either way was fine. In the event we did end up losing, the one to lose out the most was Haku-san at 100,000 DP. For Haku-san, that was barely pocket change.

Oh, there was still around 70,000 DP left of that. 10,000 DP of it was for the [Create Golem Scroll] we traded for the [Summon Skeleton Scroll] Everything left unused would be ours, win or lose.

Hey, Rokuko. Youre really not going to fight in the Dungeon Battle? Ill have a monopoly on them if you dont though, you know?

Nope. Rather, a monopoly on them would be a bit much. It is a Dungeon Battle.

Right. Ill leave the leftovers to you to clean up then, Rokuko. Whichever of us kills more wins.

Aidi, you really love contests dont you. Ill pass though. Its better for me to stay in the back. Im the general, after all!

Rokuko, commanders are people who go out and lead from the front, you know? Thats common sense.

Its just that your way of thinking is too narrow, Aidi. The generals of tomorrow leading from the rear will be the Trend!

Rokuko you sometimes talk in a different language. Is it another worlds? 1

Yep!

There were even a few conversations like that going on.

Having spent the preparatory period with Aidi, Id come to understand Aidis temperament a lot better.

To put it simply, she was a meathead. She wasnt a bad kid though. Nope.

She was just a duel troll.

Hey Kehma, arent kyuu gonna eat?

The orange rabbit named Orange ran over to me on the table top.

Oh, Orange? Youre eating too?

Nkyuu! Kyourse! Tomorrows the Dungeon Battle, so Im eating a ton to do my best! Here, eat some salad!

With that, Orange used his rabbit paws to grab the salad tongs to serve me salad on my plate. It was filled with carrots and lacked any onions since it was meant for the rabbits.

Meats not a problem since the salads for us!

Yeah, Haku-san even took that into account. How very like her.

Nkyuu hey! Thats a soup, dont play in it!

Eeeh?

Its not a yellow pool?

Ooh so its soup!

It was nice that Oranges horned rabbit friends were here too, but they were playing in the food. Hmm maybe they didnt know food shouldnt be played in? Eh, its fine.

Meanwhile, Meat was nomming her way through piles of meat and Ichika was eating whatever Ichika tended to eat. Unlike last time, they could bring back whatever they wanted since we have the gigantic Tupperware container named [Storage].

Ah, looks like Haku-sans coming my way. The super-smile on her face was scary. Jiggle jiggle, Im not a bad Dungeon Master~! 2

Kehma-san.

Yes, what is it, Haku-san?

Fufu, you dont have to be so on guard. So, what do you think are the chances of winning tomorrow?

Hmm, well Id say around fifty percent since I dont know much about our opponent.

Oh? Kehma-san, I thought youd say something more bold, like ninety percent.

Hahaha, you overestimating me. Though I think we do have a good chance of winning since well be able to use the hero, too.

Yeah, Wataru was already in the rabbit dungeon and would be there for the following days Dungeon Battle.

All the rabbits today were snuggling up with and darting around among the adventurers there so there was no doubt about that. They were all pointing at the various rabbits vowing they would protect them forever, so lets have them uphold those vows in the Dungeon Battle.

Well, the reason you were throwing the hero at them was for your original goal of [Frustrating Them], so Ill definitely get that done. So that should be fine I suppose I can say?

Fufufu. I believe that Core No. 6 will likely be viewing their side, hell certainly be surprised. You can count Core No. 666 as your strength, so make sure to make this a victory. Youve thought of an amazing gimmick like you did against me, right? Kehma-san, Im looking forward to your ideasno, Ive been looking forward to your ideas for a long time.

Even if she was expecting so much, I hadnt prepared too amazing of a gimmick please dont raise the hurdle so high.

Well, I dont plan on losing. It does feel like Im experimenting with a strategy that Ive been thinking about using though.

Fufufu, thats exactly it, Kehma-san. Right Ill reward you with something if you win this fight. How about information on Godly Beddings? It will be information that you dont already know, of course.

Well, I definitely dont plan on losing.

Ill definitely try. Yep. It doesnt change what I was already going to do.

Haku Ane-sama! I want a reward if Kehma wins too!

Oh? Then I want a reward too, in that case.

Hearing talks about a reward, Rokuko and Aidi interrupted. What greedy people.

Hmm Ill prepare something under my authority. If you win, of course.

Yay! You gotta win, Kehma!

Fufu, can you even lose with me here? If so, itll be because of faulty orders. Give me good directions, Rokukos Master.

Man oh man. Either way, its good theyre fired up, at least.

But now that I think about it, why am I getting a bad feeling about this reward?

I hope its just my imagination.
