Although I Am Only Level 1, but with This Unique Skill, I Am the Strongest

Morning. Tellurian dungeon, first basement floor.

For a reason, I came to Tellurium first, not Nihonium.

Defeat the encountered slime with normal bullets.

The shot out slime will explode and scatter into four pieces, and drop immediately afterwards.

Sprouts, and then gold sand.

Pick up both and compare them alternately.

The bean sprouts in my left hand, and the gold dust in my right.

Both dropped from the slime, both dropped at the same time.

Go around the basement level and kill some additional slimes.

All of the drops were sprouts with a bonus of sand gold.

Send the drops to Elsa with the magic cart, then go down to the second basement floor.

A basement bunker that is inhabited by sleeping slimes that look almost identical to each other.

The tellurian basement floor drops carrots, and the sleeping slime that the adventurers around me defeated definitely dropped carrots "only" from the sleeping slime.

When I shot through the sleeping slime I encountered with a normal bullet, the guy dropped a carrot and a gold sandwich.

I knew there was gold sand. The gold sand was a bonus in addition to the original drop.

''It's still a blessing from the spirits after all: ......

I can't help but mumble aloud.

Speaking of sand, Aulum, and Aulum is yesterday's kiss.

And speaking of kisses - and that's not a straightforward connection.

It's not a straightforward connection, but what's happening right now is definitely what you would call a "blessing".

After Arum kissed me, when I defeated a monster, I got a gold drop as a bonus.

At noon, I caught Celeste in the dungeon and went outside once I got there.

When we had to talk, we moved to a less popular place and told him about Aulum.

He was surprised at first, but quietly listened to the end of the story.

'Has everything started to come with a bonus of sand and gold?

'It's not because of anything, just the monsters in the dungeon. Tellurium, Arsenic, or Nifonium was a bonus. Nifonium's was a bit of a surprise.

If you say ...... for the dungeon, does that mean ......?

I nodded.

'I didn't get to the Hagremonos.

When I answered, Celeste gave me a look that said, I knew it.

She's a smart girl and seemed to be able to guess right away from what I said.

'So that's Aulum, the power that came from that spirit.

I think so. That's why I'd like to come to Celeste... have we ever seen anything like this before?It seems the existence of spirits was known at the level of urban legend.

Yes, she had told me about such things when I first met Aulum.

A very low probability, but it was possible for an ordinary adventurer to get to the place where the spirits were, and that was a real thing.

I heard similar stories from adventurers and dungeon associations. Genies in dungeons are known on an urban legend level.

If there are humans who have had to deal with spirits in the past as well, what about the blessings of spirits?

When asked, Celeste crossed her arms, twisted her head and thought about it.

'I don't know, I know some of the lore that spirits are very fickle, but I don't hear of people getting blessings just because they were with a spirit.

Yeah, I can kind of see how it's fickle.

In fact, so did Aulum.

'I'm sorry I couldn't be of any help to you, Lyota: ......

'No, no, no, Celeste will not apologize. It's just that we don't have a lot of information.

Thanks ....... It's great though. If you're dropping extra sand and gold no matter what you defeat, then that means Lyota-san can earn more money than ever before.

'When I say sand and gold, the amount isn't much. It's a much smaller amount than you can defeat in the dungeons of Aurum directly. It's a bonus.

Yes. ......

I'm talking about doing a full day's work and making about twice as much money.

That's great!

Celeste lets out a loud, plunging yell.

'The record for a day so far is, I believe, three million piro.

Yeah.

Double that?

'Yeah, I tried the same conditions this morning and I made six million piro in various vegetables plus sand and gold.

Isn't that great: ......

Celeste made a face that was half-amused and half-impressed.

''Mr. Lyota, one of these days it's going to be over ten million a day.

I hope so.

Ten million is a big number, after all.

I was happy when my bankbook balance exceeded 10 million, so if I can make more than 10 million a day, I'd like to do it.

Maybe not now, but sooner or later.

I guess you'll have to ask me.

...... Right.

Celeste is right, it's quicker to ask the person in question than to speculate here about whether it's a blessing from Aulum.

In fact, Aurum and Arsenic have a kind of spirit blessing at the dungeon level.

Aurum has more drops and Arsenic has more monsters at all times.

Both of these two things have been confirmed by the spirits themselves, and Celeste knows what she's heard.

It's no wonder she thinks it's quicker to talk to the humans in person to see if they are also blessed.

I can't help it, though.

I'm complicated.

If Aulum's blessing is real, it's probably because of the kiss he gave me.

It's indeed embarrassing to go and ask her about it, and I feel something different.

Celeste and I head back home, wondering if there's some other way to go about it.

When we returned to the mansion, it was very noisy.

'What's going on?'

It's Emily's voice, and it's coming from Elsa's office.

Let's go.

It was a suggestion to shelve Aulum, but Celeste agreed without question.

We made our way to the sub-branch I'd assigned to Elsa, which was to return the favor of the swallow.

There, as our voices revealed, were both Emily and Elsa.

Oh, welcome back, Mr. Lyota.

You're going home!

They noticed us at the same time and said welcome home, but Emily's tension was higher than ever.

'What's up Emily, what's the matter, what's the good news?

'Yes, sir!I set a new personal record.

A personal record?

That's a new personal record for a day's earnings.

Elsa calmly, but still happily, adds a supplementary explanation.

''A whopping 500,000 piro.

'That's great, Emily!'

Congratulations, Emily!

Me and Celeste congratulated Emily, and Emily smiled shyly, ehehehe.

'But half a million, that's a lot of growth all at once. What's going on?

It's because of Grandpa.

Grandpa?

'Yes, sir. Yoda told me about it and I delivered food to my grandpa in the transporter room, and he gave me an amazing power in return.

Emily is excitedly talking, and her excitement makes it a little difficult to understand what she's saying.

But now I could immediately associate it with something.

'Does Emily also have the blessing of the ...... spirit (Arsenic)?'

Emily's face was smiling more and more, and she silently responded to my associations with the correct answer.
