Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 515 Dungeon exploration

A few more days after bringing the weapons to the knights and guards, we finally had a real chance to test them.

During this time, there had been many things that we had to take care of, but now things had finally settled once all of the deals had been made.

The only thing left was to give the goods to everyone and receive the money for said goods.

Rose would still need some time to prepare the development plan for this area with Viscount Henry's wife, so it would be some time before we started talking to the various nobles and trying to convince them to follow our development plan.

So I had some free time to take care of something that I had been planning to take care of for the longest time.

In the land that I had received after becoming a viscount, there was a dungeon.

This was a small dungeon, but it was a dungeon regardless.

It might not have the most monsters or treasures, but it still was a source of items and monster parts for us to farm.

Plus, if we left it for too long, the monsters might gather in the dungeon for a while before suddenly breaking out and attacking human settlements.

So it was something that needed to be cleared from time to time.

Since we had the free time now, I was bringing Cecilia's group and several mercenaries and adventurers that we hired to clear this dungeon.

Cecilia and her troops would be the main forces for clearing the dungeon, the mercenaries and adventurers were just there for future prospects.

After all, we could always build a town near the dungeon for the mercenaries and adventurers to stay in while they hunted in the dungeon.

That would take care of the problem of clearing out the dungeon in the future.

At the same time, we would be able to buy the goods from them for a cheap price before selling them to various parts of the kingdom through Haley's network.

That was something that Haley had proposed.

I had felt wrong about taking advantage of them, but I also knew that this was how business worked.

Buy low and sell high, it was all about supply and demand.

But before any of that could happen, we would have to first explore the dungeon and see what was inside first before we could set up all of these things.

That was the main point of this dungeon raid team.

Though my being here…was an outlier.

In truth, something like this didn't require the lord to come personally.

In fact, it was dangerous for the lord to come personally to this dungeon since there was no guarantee that there wouldn't be anything that would come out and attack them while they were here.

The only reason that I was even allowed to come was because…I had thrown a fit.

I had put my foot down and insisted on coming.

It was the first time that they had seen me insist on something like this, so they really didn't know what to do.

In the end, they had no choice but to let me come along since I was so insistent on coming along.

But of course, that meant that there were more guards that were sent to watch over me.

Though judging by the look on their faces, it didn't seem like they were here to protect me. Rather, it looked like they were very excited to test out the new weapons that they had received.

But still, I didn't mind since I wouldn't miss this no matter what happened.

This was the chance to explore a dungeon, something that I had always dreamed of doing.

There were dungeons in the game, but it was nothing like exploring a dungeon with one's own two feet.

This was something that one could only experience in a fantasy world like this.

So no matter how dangerous it was, I would still go.

After arriving, the first thing that we did was set up the camp outside of the dungeon.

This place had already been explored by Shaka's men, so we knew exactly where to go and where to set up camp.

With how many people we had, it took no time at all to set up everything.

Now it was time to decide who would go in first.

This was the first real problem that we faced since everyone wanted to go in first.

The mercenaries and adventurers wanted to go in first for the treasure.

Part of the contract that we had used to hire them was that they would be allowed to keep any treasure that they found to sell privately. So they all wanted to go in first to get first dibs on the treasures.

Cecilia's group also wanted to go in first since they wanted to test out the new weapons that they had received.

I also wanted to go in first, but I knew that it would be impossible because Cecilia would never allow me to do something like this.

The only willful thing that I could do was be allowed to come along, there was no way that they would let me explore this unexplored dungeon first.

So I didn't have hopes of being allowed to go first.

But I did have the authority to decide who did go first, so they all surrounded me and presented their cases.

In the end, I decided that they would all go together which they weren't happy about.

Cecilia and her troops weren't happy about going with adventurers and mercenaries since they didn't trust them.

The adventurers and mercenaries weren't happy about going with Cecilia and her troops since they knew that they wouldn't have the freedom that they would want.

But this was the only compromise that I gave them, so they had no choice but to accept it.

With that, they headed into the dungeon.

Before they went, I told Cecilia, "Be careful."

She gave a nod before leading her troops into the dungeon.
