Year 7445, Month 10, Day 9

It was just past noon when the {Butchers} arrived at the teleport crystal room on the 1st floor. Since we entered the dungeon at 8 am that comes out to clearing through the 1st floor in about 4 hours. Being able to do it at this speed without freezing monsters is pretty good. But you know, I can't approve of them that easily. They suffered a lot of injuries after all. Also it was a big that this time we were lucky to teleport into a location which was close to the shortest route as well. I'd say the rough distance from the location we teleported was around 5 km.

"How about it? What time is it now? Misu"

"Wait just a moment. It's 12..16."

Rokko questioned Misu who has a clock magic tool. Everyone was listening with great interest.

"Hmm..Since we entered at 8 am then, 3 hours and 26 minutes huh?"

What do you mean "Hmm", how in the world did you even calculate that...It doesn't make any sense. Even if he has enough skill I don't want to let a person like this in the {Slaughterers}. I should have said there was a paper math test as well.

"It's 4 hours and 16 minutes...It's far from 3 hours right."

Kamu said while slumping over a bit.

Maybe I'll give them a bit of a hint.

"That, it's a copy of the map Rodrick bought right? It's fine for you to trust in it more."

I said with my arms crossed while leaning against the wall.

They spent too much time being careful of traps. Also, they're still too careful of monsters. Even though we've made them fight that much~ are they still afraid of them? Or else is it the traits of an adventurers that's been ingrained in them?

"Certainly, it still can't be called perfect. But of the ones that are on the market that's the closest one to perfect. The {Sun.Ray}'s map of the 2nd floor and beyond was quite some but how was it comparing the {Sun.Ray}'s map of the 1st floor to that one? Think carefully about that."

After I said that everyone gathered their heads together and started stating their opinions.

"Hey, what did that mean?"

"Don't ask me. There's no way I would know right?"

"Certainly..there's far more trap locations drawn on this map and you can see that almost every passage has been drawn."

"..So it's even more accurate than the map that Rindobel-san and the others were making?"

"The shape of the outer circumference is close to an O. All of the maps from when we were in {Sun.Ray} were oval."

"An O..They call them circles."

"It's fine either way. If Al is saying it then it's probably true that this map is several levels higher."

Worry and be troubled, young'ns. Putting that aside, it's lunch, I'm hungry. Though we were only walking slowly~

"Okonneru, Firenoto. Start preparing the food. I'm hungry."

After ordering the two slaves to make meal preparations I sat down on some dirt that someone made along the wall. And then I put one leg on the knee of my other and started scratching the dirt in the nicks on the sole of my boots off with a throwing needle.

As expected since I've been wearing them for over three years and pretty soon..I replaced the soles once but the rubber that was covered the leather surface has started to peel off all over and while there's no cracks in the surface of the hardened ebonite at the tips of the toes there's some parts scraped down. Above all, it's a problem that it's started to become a tight fit. The worn-out cloth I had been packing into the ends of it, I had completely stopped with at around this time last year but it seems my body still wants to get even bigger. Though if you were to ask the bigger problem is the width of my feet increasing.

"I..If you'll please, master."

10 Baldoggie were put into a pot that was held in front of me. It's Firenoto. After I put some hot water that was almost boiling into the pot he lowered his head to me and put the lid on it. Since we aren't carrying a stove if we just leave them to boil in water that hot for around 4-5 minutes they're just right. After that if we just put them into some bread with a slice in it along with some leaf vegetables and mustard or mayonnaise then the hotdog is completed.
