《Is It Wrong To Not Give A Damn In The Dungeon》Bet You didn't expect Another Chapter
Advertisement
A/N- I guess this ain't a one-shot anymore. I guess I'll write this whenever I feel like it.
It was a bit late. The sun was setting and that meant it was time to go down and introduce myself.
I exited the bedroom and thought.
'I need to focus on my physical abilities. My martial ability isn't that high, increasing my hand to hand combat skills should take first priority tomorrow. I should go to the upper floors and test myself out against the weaker monsters, to get a better understanding of my abilities. Then gradually increase the difficulty.'
I was on the stairs. While walking down I spotted a large table. It was at least 20 by 15 feet long. And there were two of them.
'It is a large famillia so it's to be expected.'
On the table were several platters of food. Ranging from basic vegetables to exotic, seasoned, fish.
When I got down from the steps, almost all eyes were on me. Including the executives. Them being the Braver, Finn. Nine Hells Rivera, the dwarf Gareth, Amazon sisters, Aiz Wallenstein, the Kenki, and Bete but he was only looking at his filled plate, anticipating the moment he can dig in.
Most of the people were seated so I took an empty seat at the end, next to the level 2's. They were shocked that I was sitting with them and not the executives but I simply sat there because the food there was what I liked.
Finn: I would like the attention of every familia member before we begin. Today, we have a new adventure joining us. Please welcome Riku into Loki Familia.
Some people started clapping while looking at me. I was just sitting there with my hands on my lap, looking at every member.
I was trying to find aspects of them to make it easier to remember. But it was too hard so I just gave up and looked at Finn, the midget with blonde hair.
Finn: Riku, If you can, would you mind introducing yourself. Namely about yourself and then your status.

Here we go.
Me: Well, the names Riku-
Tiona: You don't have a last name?
Me: No, I do not.
She looked curious but I continued.
Me: Im pretty new to Orario, I actually just recently registered at the guild. And I'm a level 6.
Raul: But if you were never an adventure before, how did you get to level 6?
Me: There's more than just goblins and dragons in this world.
Aiz: Yeah, there's also kobolds and minotaurs.
Me: You don't get it, do you.
Aiz: ???
Rivera and Finn on the other hand seemed to know what I implied. Though whatever their thinking is false because I've only fought monsters before.
Finn: What type of fighter are you? A mage, or an assassin type perhaps.
Me: I don't know what you mean.
Finn. Hmm...then show us your abilities. As long as it doesn't do damage of course.
I should use dominators' touch to make things float by controlling the mana in the air.
So without moving my body, the fork at my side came up in the air.
Lefiya: Oh so you're a mage. You can use telekinesis.
Rivera: But you didn't use a chant. A weak spell like that should at least take a few words but I heard nothing from you.
Me: What do you mean by chat? Does all magic need a chant?
Lefiya: Of course, it's basic knowledge for a mage. Are you really a mage?
Rivera: Calm down, Lefiya. Now Riku, is there any other type of magic that you can use that doesn't require a chant.
Lemme see. I can bring out weapons from the inventory. That looks like magic.
So I put my hand up and pulled out a shortsword I purchased from the system a while back. TO the others, it looked like I pulled it out of thin air.
Aiz: I didn't know you were a swordsman.
Me: Unlike you, a sword isn't my entire fighting style. While a shortsword tends to be my main weapon, my fighting style varies.

Aiz: Oh.
Rivera: So you have spatial magic that also doesn't require a chant. Do you have a third spell?
Me: Does this count.
I generated electricity from my hand. I recently gained the skill to use lighting.
Rivera: That's elemental magic.
Lefiya: How strong is your magic.
Me: I'm a level 6. If my magic isn't strong, then I shouldn't be level 6 in the first place.
Finn: Then I take it you're a mage then. Or at least mostly a mage.
Me: Whatever you think.
Aiz: Wait. But you have great hand to hand abilities. I tested it out myself.
Bete grew interested.
Bete: Oh so you fight with your hands as well.
Gareth: You have lots of abilities young man.
Tiona: Oh, do you wanna fight.
Me: No.
Tiona: Why not?
Me: I don't feel like fighting.
Bete: Don't tell me you're scared.
Me: Do I look scared.
The other familia members were just shocked to see me casually talk to the other executives.
Aiz: Do you want to spar with me.
Me: Out of everyone in this room, the one I want to fight the least is you.
Lefiya sat proudly after that.
Bete: Haha what kind of level 6 are you if you're afraid to fight a level 5.
Me: You misunderstand. I don't want to fight her because she doesn't know how to spar. I haven't known her for long but I'm going to guess she's the one who fights all lout during spars and it would be troublesome to deal with that.
Loki: Of course, My Aizu can beat anyone.
Me: Plus she lacks common sense. I wouldn't want to fight someone who doesn't know the basics of the world.
Lefiya: Hey take that back, Aiz-sama is very smart.
Finn: I agree with Lefiys-san, you shouldn't say that to other familia members,
Me: I'm just stating my observations.
Rivera: So what I can conclude. You have magic, you can fight like a brawler and a swordsman.
I just shrugged my shoulders.
Finn: I'll have to decide on your role in this familia later. But for now, I want to over the plan for the expedition to kill the minotaurs in the middle floors.
But I raised my hand.
Finn: Yes, Riku.
Me: Since I'm pretty new here. I was thinking that tomorrow I can enter the dungeon myself and explore the upper floors. Get a scope of the field.
Finn: Yeah that fine, we aren't able to include you in the expedition anyway. Do you want someone to go with you?
Me: I like doing things solo.
Finn: Hmm...alright but only because it's the upper floors.
Bete: Please he's level 6. He should be able to get to floor 35 without a problem.
Rivera: Maybe so, Bete, but he's still a new adventurer.
And for the rest of the dinner, discussions were held. I just silently ate my dinner next to the level 2's.
Some wanted to talk to me.
Fyra: Hey, hey, what do you like to eat.
Me: Eat? Well, what I'm eating right now. That's what I like.
Grty: So you're not joining the expedition tomorrow huh. You're going to the upper floors. I think that's too easy for a level 6.
Me: Who knows?
And so I conversed with the lower level family members.
Next Day
It's the new day. Loki familia has already gone on their expedition. It's time for me to set out.
Luckily no one questioned why I didn't wear armor. Probably thinking is because I don't need it. Which is right, but not why they're thinking.
I was now outside in Orario.
I should probably go to the guild but id rather stays in the dungeon. I think the dungeon is going to be the place where I spend most of my time here in Orario.
I stepped in line and finally set off into the first floor of the dungeon.

It wasn't clear but for a long second, she thought she saw a set of eyes floating in the air looking deeply into her soul. She was about to talk when suddenly the waiter appeared before her eyes forcing her to blink fast. She looked up at him, smiling again and then ordered two carbonara dishes and chicken Caesar salad.
