~Laughs~ You're an adventurer.

Unauthorized access to this area is restricted. Thank you for your cooperation.

Hello.

I am sorry to say this but unauthorized access to the area you see in the front is restricted. Sorry for the inconvenience and your cooperation will be appreciated.

Come to think of it...Not everyone is allowed to enter this place. Whoa!

I heard the adventurer who made the significant contribution to defeating Devil King Morocc has been invited to the royal banquet.

Since you're here....You must be...!

Have you been invited, adventurer?

Whoa, this is unbelievable!

I heard so much about you. I'm a huge fan!

Holy moly! I felt so bad having to guard here in the night of the banquet and I never expected to see you here, Adventurer. Amazing!

Let me introduce myself then.

I am Ellond Lawrence from the Royal Crusaders. I have so much respect for you.

Oh, I almost forgot! Can I get your autograph?

Thank you so much! Now I have something to brag about to my fellows. What an honor to my family.

I'm sorry to hear that, but I understand you have reasons.

Oh, right! I see, right!

Some discussed the idea during the meeting to ask the famous adventurer to handle the problem at the restricted area. No approval was given to it, but I'll see what I can do with my authority.

Oh, I knew this would pique your interest, Adventurer.

No one will question your reputation and abilities. So I would love to cut to the chase and spill the beans, but...

I think I'll have to take a deep breath and drink a cup of water to calm myself down before I do.

Now that my thirst has been quenched, let me tell you the story.

This problem has long been a pain in the neck.

There was zero monster in the beginning for sure, but, out of the total blue, they started to appear in the underground dungeons.

It doesn't mean we're goofing off around here!

We crusaders are doing our best to eliminate the monsters in the underground dungeon as much as we can.

Unfortunately, the numbers kept growing to a degree that we can't handle them all by ourselves.

I hate to admit, but we haven't even identified where these monsters come from.

In the underground dungeon, they are...No. I don't think I should say it right here. You'll see once you get inside.

Oh, I'm sorry. I think I have said too much.

There is no need to submit any investigation report. We've got ours, too.

What I would like to ask you to do for us is to mop out the monsters in the underground dungeon as much as you can.

While you're at it, I would much appreciate it if you can let me in on what goes on inside the underground dungeon.

Whoa, what did you just say? You've been to Sector A?

I haven't met that bloke in that sector yet, but one of my fellows appointed to that area did say he can be pretty ferocious.

Anyway, it is a relief to hear he hasn't caused any trouble there.

Oh, have you?

~Laughs~ He had been my junior to me.

He can be pretty annoying, I know. He would ask to make a lifelike doll, and even try to hit on his female fellows.

So if he hasn't changed much, that means he's not going to make a problem. I'm relieved to hear that.

~Laughs~ Have you been to Sector C, eh?

Oh, my days! Did he really say you'll be rewarded for those chores? What an improvement!

It's not uncommon for the Crusaders to lose something they are not supposed to...

I can see they have improved for some reason. They probably like you a lot.

~Gasps~ D...Se...Sector...D...?! ~Gulps~

Don't ever let his looks deceive you! He can be the most dangerous one in the prison.

If he doesn't try to do anything to you, it must be the best that could ever happen.

I know a few things about the Sector E, actually.

Unlike what he looks like, he has such a delicate and warm heart. Still, he can certainly go berserk if things go haywire.

Just make sure he doesn't see red. Otherwise, you're going to do fine, I guess.

Sector F, eh? ~Laughs~ The real troublemaker is locked in there.

He would not even lift a finger, bossing everyone around. He thinks the world revolves around him.

He can be a complainer but he's harmless. I think you'll be fine with him.

Oh, Sector G you say? Hmm, that zone must be...

That prisoner is often called as the sleeping beauty in the prison. I remember he's been sleeping for quite a while.

I don't have much to say about him because all I saw about him was sleeping. Well, I think you can make good friends with him.

Ah, Sector H! ~Bursts into laughter~ Is he still a whiner?

I was responsible for him when I first came here and his requests were endless!

Anyway, he means well.

Oh, I almost forgot.

In case you forgot, you took a full tour around the underground dungeon.

Phenomenal! You are indeed worthy to be invited to the royal banquet on behalf of other numerous adventurers.

One more thing. I reported what I requested to you to the superiors.

They provided the special reward money for your credibility.

Now that you received the special reward money, please keep up the good work.

I appreciate what you do for us, adventurer.

I must say it's quite rare to see such a diligent adventurer like you.

Are you ready to enter the underground dungeon? Do you have anything you'd like to ask?

I wish you godspeed.

Is there something you'd like to know about the underground dungeon?

Nothing particular. What you can imagine about the dungeon of the kingdom is all there is.

I was told it was made to lock up the menaces to peace and safety of Rune-Midgarts.

Basically, it's strongly made, but...

The facility there is very old so it must need some mending works here and there.

But, as you can see, we can't even find the time to fix anything.

The situation here is getting worse, so please take good care of yourself so that you won't get hurt in the dungeon.

What you saw in the dungeon are monsters, for sure. What else could they be?

This facility is so old and there is no document written about it. We just pass down what people say about it.

What's certain is that they were the culprit of the chaos created in Rune-Midgarts in the past.

Anyway, there is no document left about them ? for what they were charged or sentences confirmed against them.

Although there is a document saying that some crusader lost the document containing the charge and the sentence made...

Well, I guess those in the underground dungeon don't seem to care too much about him, so it'd be alright.

Some of them must still be inside the prison even when they've done the time.

Oh, I heard about that story, too.

The Crusaders are consisting of various bunches so some of them are adventurers like yourself.

A friend of mine said he saw the monsters from the underground dungeon are going about the world outside of it.

The Crusaders say he is bluffing a lot probably because he was an adventurer.

No offense, adventurer. This is not about you. He's just full of baloney...

I guarantee you that the monsters in the outer world and those in the dungeon must be different beings from each other.

They must be remotely related or something.

I am sorry, but unauthorized access to this place is restricted.

Sorry for the inconvenience and your cooperation will be appreciated.
