Danma: Danganronpa, but Monster Hunter!

Similarly, Rivera turned her gaze to the window.

"Raul, I'm ready."

At the entrance to the Loki Familia's encampment, a figure shrouded in a cloak that completely covered her body, carrying weapons on her back and holding a large bundle in her hand, reported to her leader, Raul.

"Mr. Blazing Flame, what did you bring with you...?"

Looking at the huge package in Flame's hand, Raul, who was traveling light with only a backpack containing food, water, and a little medicine, was a bit confused.

"Oh, you mean this? It's nothing, I just brought some of my family's specialties: recovery potions, antidotes, vitality boosters, dissipation agents, secret medicines, ancient secret medicines, life dust, and so on. There aren't many in total, maybe close to two hundred bottles. I also brought some materials that can be used to mix potions."

"Two, two, two, two, one hundred???!!!"

Chapter Fifteen: Adventure is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships and social interactions.

Take less?

two hundred??

Upon hearing the numbers announced by Flame, Raul's breath caught in his throat, and he felt a little breathless. He stood there stunned for a long time before he recovered.

"But we're only going to the first and second levels of the dungeon to get used to the environment today, is it really necessary to bring so many medicines..."

Raul swallowed hard and said dryly,

Brother, it's not that serious, it really isn't.

"Is it much?"

“There are a lot.” Raul nodded frantically.

There are so many, so damn many! The last time he saw potions in the hundreds was during the previous expedition.

That was only possible because almost the entire clan had mobilized, and nearly a thousand vials of various potions were prepared, filling several large boxes. When distributed among the expedition members, each person only received about a dozen vials, and many of them were ordinary spiritual herbs. High-grade spiritual herbs and panaceas were very rare.

Because those kinds of potions are extremely expensive, often costing hundreds of thousands of falies per bottle.

Now you're carrying two hundred bottles of potions all by yourself, including powerful-sounding potions like secret elixirs and ancient secret elixirs, and even materials for mixing them...

Wait a minute, so you can actually mix potions?! And you're even planning to mix them right there in the dungeon?

Raul was a little stunned, like a miserable college student who discovered that his wicked roommate who kept stealing his toilet paper was actually a hidden rich kid.

Mr. Blazing Flame, you've been hiding this really well!

"If you put it that way... then it seems a bit much."

Lieyan weighed the package in his hand, which felt almost weightless, and pondered for a moment.

Because he was going to a completely unfamiliar dungeon, he, who always took battles seriously, prepared his equipment and items according to the standards of a dragon hunter.

However, Raul's reminder brought Flame back to reality. The first and second levels of the dungeon seemed to be dominated by goblins, earth spirits, and orcs. These monsters weren't particularly strong; even newly minted adventurers could usually defeat them in a one-on-one fight. In fact, a strong farmer could even put up a fight.

In short, it's the beginner village.

With his current equipment and potion reserves, it would indeed be a bit of an overreaction to fight monsters in the beginner village.

The set of armor he was wearing—the Rock Dragon Head Armor, Waist Armor, Leg Armor, Sand Dragon Breastplate, and Blue Bear Beast Gauntlets—was not only extremely strong and provided amazing protection, but it also came with a base defense of 6. It was questionable whether even mid-level monsters could break through his defenses, let alone upper-level monsters.

Whether the medicine will ultimately prove useful is uncertain.

But since we've already taken it and are at the door, should we put it back now and only take a small portion? Or should we use magic to summon a portal and temporarily store the items in Flamefire Village?

No, magic cannot be used outside.

Finn once said that if it's not necessary, it's best to use magic only within the Familia's territory and avoid using it outside, because a certain god observes Orario through a divine power called 'Water Mirror,' and if that god discovers the peculiarity of this magic, then it's estimated that another war will break out in Orario.

Although he did not mention the name directly.

However, Flame, who still had a vague impression of the DanMachi world, naturally knew that he was referring to the goddess Freya, and he highly agreed with Finn's words. That's right, if Freya discovers our ability, it will be very dangerous. We should be careful, develop cautiously, and keep it a secret for as long as possible.

After thinking for a moment, Flame opened her backpack, keeping a small amount of each potion as a backup, along with the ingredients for mixing them. Then, she waited for her fellow clan members who were also heading to the dungeon, inquired about the potions they carried, checked for any shortages, and distributed the large quantity of potions she had brought.

Since I'm too lazy to make another trip into the clan's interior and search for my room in the maze-like tower, I might as well be generous and give the potions that I might not need on this adventure to my clan companions who are exploring deeper dungeons and might need them. Maybe they can be of some help to them.

Adventure is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships and social interactions.

This is a perfect example of how to navigate social niceties.

As for the question of whether potions from Monster Hunter World can be used in the dungeon...

The answer is yes.

The potions obtainable from the Monster Hunter world, after being tested by Finn, proved effective in the DanMachi world, even slightly more so than the potions found in DanMachi. Therefore, after exchanging several thousand Z using materials from the dungeon, Grace immediately converted them all into recovery potions, totaling about 50 bottles, which were already stored in the Loki Familia's warehouse yesterday.

As for the official explanation, to conceal the Flame's ability to cross the interdimensional gate, the higher-ups agreed that the potions were mixed by the newcomer Flame himself. The crew members were also curious about what hidden abilities Flame possessed that led Loki to recruit him into the clan, so this reason seemed appropriate.

But this should just be rhetoric from higher-ups. However, to Raul's surprise, Flame really could concoct potions...

What is this? Was it a lucky accident?

Watching the flames generously distribute the potion, Raul was both amused and exasperated, and decided to report the matter to the leader after the dungeon exploration was over.

Soon, the number of companions emerging from the clan dwindled, and seeing that the time was right, Blaze put away the giant package in his hands.

After weighing the package in his hand, Lieyan gently shook his head.

Although each adventurer who went out earlier had three or four bottles of potions in their hands, since the Loki Familia is currently in a rest period after returning from an expedition, and some members are resting at their base, the dozens of members who went to explore the dungeon only took away less than a hundred bottles of potions.

Now Flame finally understood why Raul had said two hundred bottles of potions were a lot.

Because there really are a lot of them...

Even members of the clan who venture to the lower levels for adventures will not carry more than ten potions.

I guess I gained a little bit of knowledge about dungeon exploration.

"Raul, this is for you."

Thinking this, Flame opened his backpack, took out several bottles of blue potions, and handed them to Raul.

"Huh? Mr. Flame, I have one too?!" Raul exclaimed in surprise, looking at the pile of blue potions stacked in his hand.

"Of course you have some, you've been waiting here with me for so long. Come on, let me introduce them to you. This is the antidote, this is the herbal medicine, this is the dispersant, this is the deodorizing ball, and this last one is the herbal dust. The antidote, herbal medicine, and herbal dust are all used for detoxification. The effects of these three are similar, but the herbal medicine and herbal dust also have a little bit of a recovery effect. The dispersant can remove things attached to the body, and the deodorizing ball will remove the odor from the body after being broken. That's about it."

"Mr. Blazing Flame!"

"Alright, now we're going to explore the dungeon. I'll leave the guiding to you."

"Yes!"

Chapter Sixteen: Register as an Adventurer and Head to the Dungeon

That's true, but before officially entering the dungeon, Blaze still needs to go through a procedure.

Register as an adventurer.

Because guilds control the dungeons, exploring dungeons in Orario requires completing various procedures at the guild. To do this, one needs to register as an adventurer.

Registering as an adventurer will grant you considerable benefits, such as fairer prices for magic stones, equipment replenishment for new players, and professional advisors for dungeon information.

It's roughly the kind of level that makes people want to say, "Look, that's what professionalism is."

As things have developed to this point, it's basically a model where small clans rely on guilds, and large clans cooperate with guilds. In short, it's easier to get things done by following the rules.

"In that case, the registration is successful."

Inside the guild's reception room, the unfamiliar orc advisor packed up the registration form and left decisively, without lingering at all, as if she were just going through the motions.

"Wow, that's fast! Is registering as an adventurer always this quick?" Flame blinked. He hadn't even put down his pen yet; he had just signed his name. Was he in such a hurry?

“Adventurers from large clans like ours are different from others,” Raul explained, shaking his head.

"Because we have experienced members who guide newcomers in activities, many of the guild's support programs are not needed, so the agreement is irrelevant."

Furthermore, as clans grow larger, their standards for recruiting members become more discerning. Generally, new recruits will have some unique characteristics that need to be kept secret. Therefore, it's impossible to fill out detailed forms to prevent rival clans from finding out and causing trouble.

For this reason, over time, the guild relaxed the registration requirements for large clans.

However, correspondingly, when high-level adventurers from large clans level up, the guild will publish some of their information as a benchmark, so it's a trade-off.

"I see."

Flame nodded in realization: "So Raul, your information has also been published, you're LV4, right?"

"I guess so..." Raul sighed. Although he was quite happy to be recognized by the guild as a high-level adventurer, the thought of that near-disaster situation made him feel that it would be better to forget that memory.

Seeing the mask of pain on Raul's face, Flame, understanding, did not press further.

Next, we headed to the dungeon.

Emerging from the main gate of the guild headquarters, commonly known as the Pantheon, and passing through the monument plaza in front of the headquarters, one is immediately confronted by a straight avenue leading to the chalk tower located in the very center of Orario.

Throughout Orario, there are eight main streets.

These eight main streets radiate from the city center, starting from the central chalk tower and extending straight out in eight directions, leading to the circular wall that encircles the entire city of Orario.

If you consider Orario as a round cake, then these eight streets divide Orario perfectly.

The guild headquarters is located at the end of Northwest Street, which is why Northwest Street is also known as Adventurer's Street.

Then, naturally, on this road destined to be bustling with countless adventurers, numerous shops targeting the money in the adventurers' pockets lined up one after another: weapon shops, taverns, item shops, inns, displaying a bustling and prosperous atmosphere of living for the moment.

Humans and demi-humans, dressed in adventurer gear, entered the tavern arm in arm. Amazons, dressed in cool attire, revealed their beauty from the dark alleyway. Adventurers would occasionally take their arms and lead them into the alley. Elves, cloaked, carefully maintained their distance from the surrounding crowd and walked quickly. Dwarfs, carrying heavy backpacks, breathed heavily, creating a stark contrast with the people chatting and laughing ahead.

A bustling crowd surged along the straight avenue, like a river overflowing with desire.

To be honest, I'm not quite used to the flames.

Having grown accustomed to the simple life of Flamefire Village, Flame always felt a strange sense of incongruity seeing the extravagant lifestyle of these real adventurers from another world.

"Mr. Flame?"

"It's okay, let's go."

Flame shook his head, wrapped his cloak tighter around himself, completely covering his equipment. The world of extravagance and debauchery had nothing to do with him; what he wanted had always been clear.

Adventure, training, gaining power, and fighting against the impending calamity that befell Flame Village...

"Oh, okay." Raul seemed a little confused, but still took the lead and walked ahead. Upon seeing the emblem on Raul's body and his black spiky hair, the crowded flow of people immediately parted.

Many adventurers avoided Raul and Flame like the plague, and if you listened closely, you could hear whispers among the surrounding adventurers.

"They are extraordinary beings from the Loki Familia!"
