Volume 1: Chapter 1 - The Beginning Room
After a short walk down the corridor, led by a man in chain mail, we were all ushered into separate rooms.
「You, are you all right?」
「Yes,...... sorry for the trouble.」
Ex-Yankee was worried about the black-haired girl until the end, but in the end, the two of them were separated in the middle of the corridor.
In fact, we were all led to separate rooms.
In the room I was led to, there was a lady dressed like an office worker.
There, I was given an explanation of this place using some kind of presentation software.
It was a very simple explanation, but I didn't understand it.
「Let's see, this is a world with dungeons ......, so-called "Transfer to Another World," right?」
「Thank you for your quick understanding. However, this is not so vast a space as to be called another world, though. There is only one city centered around a dungeon.」
「Do we have to conquer that dungeon?」
「It is not an obligation, but it means that in order to get out of this closed world, you have to conquer the dungeon」
「If we conquer the dungeon, we can get out of here ......, does that mean we can go back to the original world?」
「That's something you'll have to wait to find out after you conquer the dungeon.」
「What are the other options besides conquering the dungeon?」
「Not everyone is suited for fighting, so there are many people who are doing normal jobs. We will support you while you get used to it, but not forever.」
「If you don't work, you don't eat, huh」
「Well, it is the same in any world and any society, no?」
She also explained various things to the extent that she could talk, and I could understand what she was saying in my head.
But my mind couldn't catch up with it.
It was as if I didn't have a sense of reality. ......
「It's like that for everyone in the beginning. Haruma-san is amazing that you're not getting upset.」
「I-I wonder if it's like that.」
Being praised by a beautiful career woman is not bad, yep.
「Please relax in your room for a while until you get used to the situation.」
「...... will do that.」
「However, please don't forget to dive into the dungeon at least once within 10 days」
This was in the presentation software she showed me earlier.
「Everything you need to know is written here, so if you don't understand something, please look it up first. You should get into the habit of looking things up yourself first before asking others.」
She handed me a booklet as she said this.
『A Guide to Living and Exploration.』
The inside of the booklet contained not only the information I had just received but also more detailed information.
I should take a look at it when I get settled.
「Please do your best to become independent within a month.」
「Yes. I'll try to do my best.」
「Fufu. Now, please go to the "Room of Beginning". Don't forget to check your status when you enter the room.」
「Understood.」
I stand up and open the door that led me into this room.
「May your exploration be blessed.」
With the office lady's voice behind me, I pass through the door.
On the other side of the door, which would normally lead to a corridor, was a room about 6 tatami mats in size.
「This is the "Room of Beginning", huh......」
This room was supposed to be the first base given to those who were brought here, right?
The layout is 1K.
There was an entrance hallway as soon as you entered, with a modest pair of sandals.
At the end of a short hallway leading from the entrance is a room about 6 tatami in size.
To the right of the hallway were a toilet and shower room, and to the left was a small kitchen.
There were dishes, cooking utensils, seasonings, and a refrigerator, which was always full of food.
The room had a bed, a side table, and a simple chair.
There was also a closet, which contained underwear and jerseys, all in sizes to fit me.
They said I could put my laundry in the laundry box and they would clean my clothes and bedding.
「How very thorough.」
However, this room is only available for the first 30 days.
After that, this room is no longer accessible and the items inside will disappear.
If you are wearing underwear and a jersey in this room, you will be stripped naked.
Food and condiments would also disappear, of course, so there would be no point in taking all of them out on the last day.
She told me that I should be able to stand on my own feet in a month, and that's what she meant.
「First of all, let's take a shower.」
There are a lot of things I need to do, but I want to freshen up first.
I took a quick shower, regretting that there was no bathtub in the bathroom.
Of course, shampoo, soap, and bath towels were provided.
「Phew, I feel refreshed!」
Wiping my wet hair with a towel, I opened the refrigerator.
I heard that the contents of the fridge change according to the preferences of the residents.
For now, I took out a plastic bottle of soda water and entered the six-tatami-mat room.
There was only a bed, a table, a chair, and a cabinet in the room.
As expected, there was no TV, audio equipment, or PC.
In the closet hung two sets of jersey tops and bottoms, five pairs of T-shirts and trunks, and five sets of socks.
For the time being, I put on my underwear and jersey, sat down on the bed, and dried my head with the hair dryer.
「Puwahh. ....... Now then」
After drinking half a soda water, I finally decided to check that thing.
「Status!」
I don't dare to say it, but it's my first memorial.
「Oooh!」
Right in front of my eyes, it appeared.
