I Woke Up In The Morning And Became A Seeker, So I Dived Into A Dungeon ~Steadily Leveling Up Starting at the First Level~
Chapter 55
Chapter 55
Chapter 55. Other Seekers
The sixth layer was now “just a transit point.
We decided to go ahead and explore the map by walking around the 6th floor.
It was fun to steadily explore the unexplored areas of the map.
We could have looked up the shortest route to the lower floors on the Internet and gone straight to the 7th floor, but we decided not to do that.
The most accurate way to “earn money” for us now is probably this 6th floor.
From the data of the 7th floor left by our predecessors, it seems that descending to the 7th floor with our current strength would not yield a very good result.
Therefore, I would like to continue to explore the 6th floor to improve my skills.
So on this day, we explored the 6th floor roughly.
The battles went well as I expected, and we gained a lot of high-value magic stones and experience.
We continued our search until the evening when we decided to return to the surface.
“Hey, you three! I have a little favor to ask you!”
We were in the dungeon when we encountered and were approached by a pair of seekers.
It was a party of two men and women, and the man was the one who approached us.
That’s not the first time we have encountered other seekers in the dungeon, except for the Dungeon Fairies.
I didn’t see them on the cave floor, but I had seen them often after entering the forest floors.
Even so, they usually greeted me lightly.
This was the first time he had been approached like this.
The man was probably in his late twenties.
He wears clothing-type protective gear that’s easy to move in, and his weapon was a fighting glove.
The other woman also looked to be in her late 20s.
This one was dressed in plate armor and holding a battle axe.
From a distance, the woman looked to be in poor health.
She looked pale and was staggering along.
I looked at Kodachi-san and Yuzuki.
They nodded as if to say, “Please take care of it.”.
I decided to call out to them as I walked toward the men.
“Is something wrong?”
“Sorry, if you have any extra antidote potion, I’d like to take one. Of course, I’ll thank you. Please.”
I see.
Perhaps the woman had run out of antidote potion and was poisoned.
“Kodachi-san, do you have any extra antidote potions?”
“Yes. I have eight bottles left, so I think it’s fine if I give them one.”
Kodachi-san, who made the [Item Box] appear and checked the contents, replied.
Yuzuki also said, “Why don’t you give it to them? If we’re in trouble, let’s help each other.”
If the two of you have no objections, then I have no objections either.
“Okay. Is one bottle enough?”
“Will you give it to me? I’d appreciate it. I’d be grateful for one bottle, but if you could give me two or three, I’d be even more grateful.”
It was time to leave the dungeon, and considering our convenience, five bottles of antidote potion would be more than enough.
With that in mind, we gave the man three of the eight antidote potions we had left.
The man gave us 30,000 yen, which included a deposit.
Poison remover potions cost 5,000 yen each when bought at an armorer’s store, so we were in for a good deal if we got paid 10,000 yen for each bottle.
The female seeker, who had looked distressed, gulped down a bottle of the antidote potion she had received.
The woman’s color soon improved, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
“Thank you, you guys. I owe you. I don’t recognize many of your faces, are all three of you rookies?”
“Yes, we are. We’ve only been seekers for less than a month. Musou-senpai and Kazane-san are a little earlier than me, but they’re similar. Are you Onee-san’s and the others veteran seekers?”
Yuzuki asks back and the woman giggles.
“Yeah, I’ve been a seeker for almost ten years, that’s what makes me a veteran. But it doesn’t look so cool when you’re like this.”
“No, really bad! I thought it was still in my [Item Box]. I guess I was mistaken.”
The man bowed to the woman and bowed her head, and the woman said, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry I left you to manage her,” she said.
Meanwhile, Kodachi-san, who was listening to the conversation on the side, let out an exclamation to the female seeker.
“Huh. You’ve been doing this for ten years? Then, after all, your level is long ago 25?”
“That’s right. It didn’t even take me the first six months to reach level 25. If you were a dual job seeker. It would have taken longer.”
“I see... That’s right. We’ve been at our current level for about a month, so that’s right...”
25 level.
That’s the upper limit for the average seeker’s level.
Some seekers go above 26 levels, but that is a small percentage of all seekers.
For example, the old man at the armorer store is one of them.
[Limit Breaker] Seeker.
.
It is a particularly special existence among the special seekers in itself.
I hear that seekers who can reach [Limit Breaker] will get respected by the country.
However, you cannot become a [Limit Breaker] Seeker if you don’t want to be one.
That’s because to become a [Limit Breaker] Seeker, you have to meet a device in the dungeon called [Limit Break Event].
Nowadays, it’s said that it’s as miraculous as winning a billion dollars in the lottery for an ordinary seeker to encounter a [Limit Break Event].
Ordinary seekers like me shouldn’t expect such a dreamy thing and should live a more steady life.
“Well, I’ll see you later. Thanks for your help.”
The two veteran seekers, a man, and a woman waved and left.
We, too, resumed our search.
After that, we returned home after completing our dungeon search without incident.
Today’s income is about 160,000 yen in total when converted into magic stones.
If we take into account the items from the treasure chest, the cost of the antidote potion we consumed, and the 30,000 yen we received from the duo, our total income from the search was about 180,000 yen.
We used this income to go shopping at the armorer store.
Today, I bought two Poison Repellent Rings for 50,000 yen.
Kodachi-san and I equipped each with one of them.
When equipped with this item, it has a 50% chance of nullifying the bad status “Poison”.
There is also an item called Ring of Paralysis Prevention, but items with “Equipped part: Finger” cannot be effective at the same time.
Our party can heal paralysis with magic, so we prioritized poison protection.
Also, all three of us, Kodachi-san, Yuzuki, and I had improved one level each during the day’s search.

As new seekers, we’re getting stronger and stronger.
However, I feel a little sad when I think that the enhancement by such a level-up is limited to the period until we reach the 25th level.
I was thinking like that, but.
It seems that fate is about to throw us into a bigger torrent.
I learned that after a while.
