Chapter 340 – 29. Back to Earth.
+++
Murmur murmur.
“Ha… At this time when we need to get stronger as soon as possible… Ha…”
“Don’t sigh. It sucks.”
Kaku looks at Aoki, who grumbles over and over again, as if he is pathetic.
Even if it’s a formality, since Aoki, the ‘leader’, is always like this, Kaku really wanted to sigh.
“But… Even at this moment, they must be getting stronger!”
“Haruna, please say something kind.”
“Why me again?”
“Are you listening to what you’re saying?”
“Puck.”
It wasn’t déjà vu, Haruna spat out annoyed words toward Aoki in repeated situations every time.
“From this moment on, the palace is stagnant and even if you become stronger alone, you can’t win. Wake up.”
“Ugh.”
A cold word.
But more than the words themselves, the fact that Haruna had said those words touched Aoki greatly.
An image that comes to mind when you say ‘cold city girl’ with an excellent fashion sense. Her well-managed skin and body Her set the taste for many men.
Because before she became an adventurer, she was already a college queen. She would have been speechless by now had she not been assigned to the same tutorial team by chance.
“Oh, no… I can!”
“Yeah. I can’t.”
They went around the dungeon together and formed a friendship, to the point where they called each other by name, but there was no rational relationship. In particular, Haruna’s iron wall was amazing.
“It is said that there are hundreds of thousands of workshops for just one lady-in-waiting.
“But… If we don’t do this at least—”
“Quiet for a moment.”
Just as they were talking, Kaku quieted the two and forced them to step aside.
A small quarrel was heard from the other side.
“…Is it a kick?”
“It could be. First of all, prepare for battle.”
Each of them held their weapons tightly with a serious look, as if they had never quarreled.
The monsters were very dangerous as they were inside the dungeon, but in fact, it was the group that was more dangerous than that.
Especially in the case of Japan, the upper dungeons, B and C, are almost monopolized by the palace, so a large number of masters flocked to the lower dungeons, and naturally, the number of good pucks increased.
Same with this dungeon.
If you don’t care, you may meet people you can’t deal with and end your life with a miserable appearance.

A party that Aoki and others are watching carefully.
It was a universal composition consisting of 6 males and 4 females.
The average defense is about 9000, so it’s a decent team.
However, five people, half of the team, are lying on the floor.
Four men died with their limbs torn, and the other two shed bitter tears as they shed lethal amounts of blood.
And four women…
“I hate it…!”
“Do you think this kind of violence will be forgiven?!!”
He was shaking and urinating at the approaching threat.
They were adventurers who were able to navigate the D-class dungeon without much difficulty, but those in front of them were completely unstoppable.
“The word ‘extortion’ is a bit excessive. We are just exercising our legitimate rights based on the last Tokyo Convention.”
In front of the women was a woman dressed neatly from head to toe in a suit.
However, despite her neat attire her, what she exuded was more of lust than her sense of order her.
“As of 00:00 AM today, the dungeon has been decided to be owned by the Harem Palace, so adventurers exploring this place must pay the entrance fee and tax. Taking this into account, we requested a 50% tax reduction for the admission fee waiver.”
“What is this…!”
“However, you did not respond to this, and showed uncooperative reactions such as drawing weapons, and eventually attacked me, so in the territory of the palace, those who do not follow the laws of the palace are defined as rogue users, and according to the manual, special It was only punished by applying the crime of obstruction of justice.”
As if listening to a machine, you can feel the coldness in every tone of voice.
“In the case of such a special crime of obstruction of justice, the minimum sentence to the maximum summary execution is possible depending on the discretion of the sentenced person, so I executed the six people who directly attacked me considering the nature of the crime and the degree of danger. There is no problem.”
Extremely hedonistic and extremely self-centered way of thinking.
What is not a problem Everywhere you look, there are problems.
However, women did not have the strength to insist on it and carry it through.
I just regret my past actions and ask for mercy.
“In addition, in the case of all of you who remain, you will be sentenced to cattle punishment, so please be gentle with your sentence.”
“Ah, cattle type… To say…”
A degenerate element felt in the sense of language.
The four women backed away in horror.
It’s livestock It can never be.
Above all, if it is a harem palace, that group of super perverted Yueun. Although it was blown away to another world, it was said that the palace opened the dimensional door through a tremendous leap in technology. If that’s true, Yu-eun will also come back alive, and then they, who have become domesticated animals, will surely be reduced to sex processing tools.
Of course, I don’t want to live that kind of life.
“Of course, but I have no veto.”
The women’s faces turned white.

“Do something like that…!!!
Aoki, who was watching the situation, spit out abusive language while dyeing his face red.
It was a spectacle that he, who revere justice, could not pass by.
It’s a problem to hit, but that’s totally unreasonable. Who would own the dungeon in the first place? Agreement with the state? That would have already ended with handing over Tokyo City to the Harem Palace, and even if they could claim ownership of the Japanese dungeon at will, it would of course be illegal and outrageous for them to turn it into livestock or kill them just because they refused.
“Don’t step out, Aoki.”
Kaku, who read Aoki’s thoughts of her, hardened her face and said.
“It has nothing to do with us.”
“What, what?! How could that—”
“That’s right. It has nothing to do with us.”
“..!”
Not only Kaku, but Haruna and Karen also nodded.
In particular, Karen’s reaction was quite intense.
“I’m sorry to those people… But I’m first. And they say livestock! What if I accidentally go out and get caught? Isn’t it obvious what will happen to me and Haruna?”
“That…”
The gigantic Ooku also joined in.
“There’s no reason to leave it and help, and it’s questionable whether it’s a proper party enough to help. Couldn’t those guys be a gang of jerks? This is a dungeon. Give justice to dogs.”
Words so cold.
For a moment, Aoki felt extremely lonely.
He felt he was walking down the same road though he believed he was a teammate.
Not at all.
‘Haruna…!’
Still, Karen’s words touched me quite well.
What if Haruna and Karen were taken as livestock? It is almost certain to see how he will be treated in the harem palace, the empire of evil.
Just thinking about it makes her heart burn.
‘Should I skip it…Pretend I didn’t see it…Should I…?!’
The bitten lips trembled.
You have to do justice and destroy the harem palace of the evil empire, but you have to retreat even after seeing the injustice of the harem palace right in front of your eyes. Could there be anything worse than this?
“No way Aoki. Never.”
Kaku got his teammates back and prepared to withdraw.
And I brought the inventory to the front in case of an unexpected situation. I don’t know how much the tax is, but if you get caught, you can pay it right on the spot.
‘Even if you ask for 90% or more, you have no choice but to pay…’
When you’re thinking like that
“Help me!!! You guys there!!! Save me!!!!!”
One of the cornered women shouted, looking straight in the direction of Aoki.
“!!!”
They must have been killing the presence as much as possible by using their own skills. I had to discover whether it was the superhuman strength of a human in crisis or a skill.
Swoop.
The lady of the harem palace also turned her head this way.
‘Fuck…!!!’
Worst case.
All in all, I was hiding and caught.
The woman’s hand reached out.
Snap.
Hard gestures.
“Come out.”
Hard voice.
Aoki’s body flinched and trembled.
Just one word I had only witnessed one gesture, but I got goosebumps all over my body, and each cell screamed with all its might.
You should never oppose it.
Remembrance.
Kaku, who quickly grasped the situation, showed herself by sticking her body out in front of the wall.
“You are the one from the palace.”
While greeting the woman as politely as possible, he shot an angry look at the women who singled him out and created this division.
“I was just watching Chui to see if it was a commotion caused by the punching, so if you have any doubts that he might have had other thoughts, please take it away.”
“Hmm.”
The maid of the palace glanced at Kaku.
“Looks like you’re not alone.”
“Of course.”
As Kaku glanced behind her, the team members, led by Aoki, appeared in awe.
Aoki, who cannot hide his anger his, and Haruna and Karen, who appear to be rigid, follow him.
Everyone had fear in their faces.
In particular, even Ooku, who boasts a large body with a height of more than 2 meters, was quite scared, which was quite fresh and evoked strange fear.
Kaku hit her head first before her handmade her mentioned her taxes.
“We had been hunting here since a week ago, so we had no idea that this dungeon was owned by the palace.”
“A week ago? It sure looks like you’ve been hunting for a long time.”
“Yes. So I don’t know what the tax rate is, so if you let me know, I’ll pay right away without delay.”
Kaku showed the courage to walk to her maid carrying her inventory of her.
Although it must have been quite frightening due to the corpses strewn everywhere and severed limbs, etc., He proceeded steadfastly.
The lady-in-waiting watched the scene happily and opened her mouth.
“This dungeon has been owned by the palace since 00:00 AM today. Income earned before then has nothing to do with us, so 30% (30%) of the loot obtained today is taxed. Since you entered without knowing, the tax is cut in half and a total of 15% is collected, and the entrance fee to the dungeon is $1,000 per person.
Kaku calculated how many pounds of bones he would need to provide, but soon changed his mind.
‘The amount of loot we have right now is from hunting in the past week. Even if I arbitrarily calculate the serving size and present it, there will be no answer if you start to complain about whether it is true that you paid 15% of what you hunted today.’
Quickly changing his mind his, he manipulated the inventory and spit out 30 % of what was in the inventory-what he had obtained in a week.
“Even though we entered before it became the property of the palace, we still hunted here until today when it became the property of the palace, so as a result we were hunting in the ‘dungeon owned by the harem palace. “
As one of the psychological techniques, Kaku, who even used words similar to the maid’s tone and similar words, held out a bundle of $100 bills in his inventory of her.
“It’s 10,000 dollars. The total admission fee is 5,000 dollars, but please accept the remaining 5,000 dollars as I’m giving it to you as a favor to the palace.”
“…”
The maid stared blankly at him.
Excellent improvisation based on quick situational judgment. It is the material of the leader.
“I see.”
After a moment of thought, she nods her head. She let out a sigh of relief to Kaku and Haruna and the others.
However, only Aoki’s expression is still unresolved.
“However,”
Kaku’s heart skipped a beat at the maid’s words in such a situation, and he unconsciously glared at Aoki.
Fortunately, Aoki wasn’t trying to hurt anything.
She took her eyes off them altogether and turned her face to the woman who had called for help.
“There’s something to be done before that.”
“…All of you…What…Hey…Cheesy…!!”
Already she was her face mangled with her tears and snot, and the other three women were no different.
“An unrepentant attitude to seek help from others for the purpose of evading execution despite the fact that the crime and sentence have already been sentenced. Is there any reason for me not to punish you immediately?”
Very cold eyes
It’s a gaze that seems to regard people like you as worthless, like stones scattered on the side of the road.
“Oh, no!! It’s this year! It’s only this year!!!”
A woman shoved her culprit and she knelt down on the spot.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s livestock or whatever, please don’t kill it!!”
“That’s right! This bitch said that we don’t care!!”
“You bitch!! Why are you even dragging us in and making a fuss!!!!”
“M-Mikoto…!”
“Shut up! Don’t call me by my name!!”
She slashes her colleagues without hesitation and denounces them with a devil-like face.
“Is that so?”
The lady-in-waiting stood behind the woman who had been left alone.
“Ah…”
When she looked into the eyes of the one looking down at her, her whole body her froze and her knuckles flashed.
“Then you—”
“Hey, do it in moderation.”
