Are You Standing Here Waiting to Die?
Lefia answered William's questions. Even though the records of the Familia would contain detailed information about monsters, it would be considered good if they could even record the location of a low-level monster like this. For example, the location of the magic stone inside the body would not be recorded.
The other Kobold were also startled by this sudden turn of events and took a step back.
Logically, the monsters spawned in Dungeon shouldn't have emotions; they are monsters that only know how to kill and have no reason. But for some reason, they are experiencing emotions like never before.
"Awooo!"
At the same time, one of the Kobold that had been retreating suddenly shouted after a brief moment of fear and charged at William, brandishing its scimitar.
The remaining three Kobold, their fear dispelled by their companions' shouts, also brandished their scimitars and charged towards William, following their leader.
Faced with four cold, curved blades simultaneously slashing at him, William simply reversed his grip on the gun and executed a wide spin.
Bang! x4
The four Kobold that had blocked all of William's escape routes were swept away and crashed into the earthen wall.
William took two steps forward, tapping the blood-red tip of his gun lightly four times on the wall.
Four plumes of black smoke rose, and four magic stones emitting a faint blue glow fell to the ground.
"It's still so small."
William picked up the magic stone, which was the size of a glass marble, and said disappointedly that he had already learned the value of Orichalcum from Lefia.
If he wanted to gather Orichalcum for a spear, he would need at least two hundred million Valis, but the magic stone in front of him was worth at most one thousand Valis.
"Mr. William, an item has dropped."
"They are Kobold fangs."
Lefia was pleasantly surprised to find a long tusk at another spot where Kobold had fallen.
How much is this worth?
"Um--"
"Since Kobold fangs are essential materials for crafting high-quality weapons for new recruits, they're probably worth around ten thousand Valis!"
Because she was often dragged along by Tione to sell the materials dropped during the Familia Expeditions, she was quite knowledgeable about the value of most Dungeon drops.
"It's still too cheap!"
William sighed and handed a small magic stone to Lefia, who was collecting the fallen items.
"Is it very rare?"
Lefia looked at the small bag in her hand, which was now stuffed with magic stones, with some surprise.
The magic stones in this bag are clearly worth more than 100,000 Valis. Even a five-person team of level 1 adventurers can only earn a maximum of 50,000 to 60,000 Valis a day.
The 50,000 to 60,000 yuan worth of goods they received still had to be split equally among the five members of the team.
William has only been in the Dungeon by himself for three hours, and he has already earned more than 100,000 Valis, but he is still not satisfied.
"Miss Lefia, what time is it now?"
"I think it'll be about six more hours until it's time for the Familia to have dinner!"
Since there are no watches or pocket watches in the world of Danma, Lefia can only roughly estimate the time herself.
"Could you walk down with me a little further?"
"Huh? But we're already on the fifth floor. Going down any further would be dangerous."
Actually, unlike the first five levels where the monsters are all level 1, level 2 monsters will appear below.
If that were all, there wouldn't be any problem. She had heard about William's Familia with their own gatekeeper Levi, when she returned home that evening.
Furthermore, William's agile movements and extremely sharp marksmanship, which he displayed in front of Lefia today, gave her no doubt that William could handle level 2 monsters.
The problem is that monsters below the fifth level often appear in large groups, and she has doubts about whether William can handle more than ten monsters at the same time without her intervention.
"It's okay, I think I can handle it."
William spoke in an unyielding tone, though he was also concerned about the Elf. If he were exploring the Dungeon himself, he would have already gone deeper into the dungeons.
"Alright then, let's go down a bit further!"
Seeing William's tone, Lefia did not refuse.
Because she believed she was capable of protecting William, she figured it was alright to indulge in a little fooling around with William.
Moreover, if William really can't handle it, her help can make William realize the danger of the Dungeon.
In this way, when William explores the Dungeon himself, he will have a little more respect for Dungeon.
In those few short hours, William had become synonymous with recklessness in her eyes, often ignoring her advice and charging in to fight several monsters at the same time.
Although William successfully defeated the monsters each time, in Lefia's eyes William was still just a novice adventurer, and it was better for him to be more cautious.
William had no idea that Lefia had imagined so much in such a short moment.
Having obtained Lefia's consent, he had now slung the spear back over his shoulder.
The two continued exploring the underground tunnels down to the next level. According to the information he had reviewed yesterday, the terrain from the first level to the seventh level was all like an underground maze.
Only upon reaching the eighth floor can one see the open space and the sun-like rays.
Because William quickened his pace, he no longer rushed to kill any monsters he saw, unlike when he first entered the Dungeon.
William and Lefia would carefully avoid some of the monsters that could be avoided.
This made their exploration of the Dungeon much faster than before, and they reached the seventh level in just over half an hour.

At the entrance to the seventh floor, a Goblin carrying a wooden club was patrolling back and forth.
William pulled out a throwing knife he had brought from the world of The Irregular at the Irregular at Magic High School World from his pocket.
"Let's give it a try! Will the iron throwing knives work on these little monsters?"
