Cyclodungeon Society, President’s Office.

I visited alone, and I told Cell about Carbon.

If I was dealing with a mere adventurer, I would have to cover up a few things, but since I was dealing with Cell, I almost didn’t cover it up.

‘So, it’s still no good to turn back, but there will be no more hallucinations to deceive or anything like that. Carbon has given me his word.

That’s great, Sato-sama. But that leaves us with one more question.

What?

‘Carbon now expects Satou-sama to be the ‘true man of destiny’, that Satou-sama will get through further trials. Wouldn’t that affect the other adventurers?

You’ll be fine.

The question that Cell had is one that I’ve felt too.

That’s why I had a talk with Carbon yesterday.

You have a sulfa, right?

Sulfur #16.

It’s a strange dungeon in Cyclo, where you fight solo in a sort of arena every time you enter.

Only when I entered it, it was decided to be like Sulphur.

So only Satou-sama is a completely separate category.

‘Yes. So any other adventurers who enter Carbon will not be affected. For better or worse, they’ll be ‘just carbon’.

I see. …… As expected of Satou-sama. I didn’t know you were that well trained.

Don’t tell me to train him.

I chuckled and interjected.

That might be a good way to put it, but it’s not very polite.

I’m grateful to Satou-sama again. Now I can recommend you to go ahead with that place.

First?

‘Hmm. After Selenium, Carbon is on the horizon. I think we should cut that place off from Cyclo and build a new city.

I think so.

I’ve been over there for a while now, taking the normal route a few times for Carbon, and the area around it already feels like a city.

It’s unmaintained, so it has a strong sense of clutter, but there are multiple dungeons, a large number of adventurers gathered there, and there are buyers who buy the items those adventurers produce, and all sorts of shops have been set up for the money they make.

In a world where everything is made up of dungeon drops, it fulfills the requirements of a ‘city’, so it naturally takes shape.

The more stable the carbon is, the more adventurers there will be. I hear that special groups have already begun to mediate adventurers.

Special Forces?

“Small Special Adventurers Guild.

The first name I’ve heard from Cell’s mouth came out.

The Small Special Adventurer’s Union – that’s it?

What kind of organization is it?It’s called a union: ……

‘Hmmm, it’s a cohesive organization of adventurers who don’t have a family and are doing it here. We provide weapons, information, and cover for our members when they get sick or cause damage.

I didn’t know there was such a thing.

Well, I wouldn’t be surprised.

”That special group is moving. Due to the characteristics of carbon, it’s easy for a new adventurer to control the direction of the monster.

Yes.

All of Carbon’s monsters are shapeshifting.

The monsters we’ve had before, whether they’re strong or weak, or human.

They’re all monsters that transform by reading those things.

I mean, …… for example, if you’re a new adventurer who only killed one slime in Tellurium.

‘Yes, it means that whether you’re the ‘strongest’ or the ‘weakest’ in carbon, it will be that slime that transforms.

I see.

And I’ve found it easier to keep order.

“Order?

”It’s a countermeasure against a side blow. If a monster transforms, it will be its adventurer’s opponent. Until now, countermeasures against a side-swipe have been merely subjective, or even objective evidence has been limited to eyewitness testimony.

‘The Carbon monster clearly locks on to us, for the transformation.

Cell nodded clearly.

‘That’s partly why the special team is on board, because it’s a friendly environment for newcomers.

Okay.

The logic of this world is quite interesting.

The process of a city being formed according to that particular logic is interesting no matter how many times you watch it.

I have one more thing to discuss with you.

What?

So I’d like to donate a portion of the carbon revenues and taxes to Mr. Sato.

Can you give me a margin?

”Mm, in order for Carbon as a whole to operate in a stable manner, Satou-sama has to take care of the spirits. So it’s only natural that we pay a portion.

I see.

We’re going to adjust the percentages now, but …… billion piro per year.

Go to ……?

So, would you mind keeping Carbon company?

I thought, “Yay!” and then he offered me a crazy amount of money.

I was really surprised by this.
