Book 8: Chapter 29


    Good job, Luna.


    Im back, Halt.


    My clones that had been strengthened by Luna finished all the monsters on the 16th floor in one fell swoop, so I teleported her back to the Master Room.


    You really did clear it. Congrats. So, what do you want for your reward?


    Youre going to get a reward for <em>that</em>!? T-thats cheating!!


    Youko raised her voice inint.


    It was understandable that she wanted to grumble since Luna didnt really fight that much.


    Luna. We envy your reward. (Mai and Mei)


    Halt-sama, I think the degree of difficulty ispletely different from when it was Merdies turn.


    I-I agree.


    Tina and Leaffa seemed disatisfied, too.


    Merdie was the one who defeated the boss, but if thats the case, then I want that, er, reward too. I also worked hard. (Seira)W-whats the reward, meow!? Will Halt-sama do something for you, meow? T-Then me too, I want a reward, meow! (Sally)


    M-me too!! (Lilia)


    I did say Im going to reward Merdie, bute to think of it, I didnt make any allusion to the other three.


    Seems like they also want one too.


    Halt. I ahm, what I did isnt really a big deal, so its alright even if I dont have any reward.


    Luna told me that she would decline her prize.


    Her face was extremely dark.


    .Yeah, its true that Luna didnt experience the hardship of battlepared to Merdie. She probably thought that she might anger the other wives if she still got a reward from me despite that.


    Theres no way she wouldnt want it, right.


    I read her mind just in case.


    <em>(Actually, I really want that reward. A kiss thats longer than usual  well, thats impossible,isnt it? If I really receive that, Youko and the others will probably scold Halt)</em>


    Ah, so she was worried about me.


    It made me a bit happy.


    Really, Luna is such a good girl.


    <em>Makes me want to reward Luna even more.</em>


    Longer kiss, huh. Got it.


    Lets give it to her when were back at the mansion.


    Actually, I n to somehow reward all those who challenge my dungeon for their participation. Of course, Im going to raise the level of reward if you manage to clear it.


    Each floor of my dungeon has its own theme configured.


    Merdie and Luna managed to clear theirs.


    Inferno wolves pose quite a threat to Luna, who has just barely passed Level 100. For those guys, the surround and overpower skill is activated by default. Itll be very difficult to speak once youre surrounded if you only have the usual level of mental tenacity.


    Ugh. Yeah, thats true, butYouko apparently grasped what I was trying to point out.


    Luna did properly summon my clones, and she even strengthened them. For me, Luna did her best in her own way, so I want to reward her.Thats because Halt promised that youd definitely rescue meso I did my best.


    Luna mumbled.


    Of course, Seira, Sally and Lilia will also have your own reward.


    !!! (All)


    N-no wayBut I also want to challenge it. (Youko)


    Me too. (Hakua)


    Oh! Youko and Hakua, you wanna challenge my dungeon?


    Theres also onest floor that I want to check.


    Youko and Hakua seemed eager to be rewarded  perfect timing.


    I want both of you to challenge thest floor, are you up for it? If you challenge it, Ill reward you.


    Eh, really!?


    I-is it really alright that Im going with Hakua? Ahm, not to brag, but Were strong, you know?Yup, I know. Even if you easily defeat the boss, Im still giving you a reward.


    Gotcha. Master, its a promise, okay!?


    Lets Go, Youko~!


    Yup. Lets defeat it right away and im our reward!


    <em>So, do you really think itll be that easy?</em>


    <em>The boss I prepare is pretty strong, you know.</em>


    <em>Well, it might be the first time Im going to see Youko and Hakua seriously fighting, so Im looking forward to it.</em>


    I teleported Youko and Hakua to the 20th floor.


    This ce is (Youko)


    So spacious~ (Hakua)


    Aside from the boss of the 20th floor, there were no other monsters  or the so-called small fry  appeared.


    Not only that, there were no walls, no rooms and no treasure boxes and the like here.


    It was just empty space stretching on.


    Halt made it the most spacious ce within the dungeon so that huge bakemono could fight with all their might in here.


    So that the boss on this floor could give her all.


    Wee, you have done well for reaching this ce, the final level of Danna-samas Dungeon.


    A delicate woman d in white and sporting slender horns on her temples appeared before Hakua and Youko.


    Are you the boss here?


    Sister, are you alone?


    Indeed. Danna-sama instructed me to protect this ce.


    The woman respectfully bowed her head.


    The man youre calling Danna  is it Halt?


    Youko unleashed her bloodlust towards the woman.


    Yes. The Danna-sama I am referring to is indeed Halt-samas! For this lowly me to utter his great name to do such an august deed


    The womans cheeks were dyed crimson.


    She waspletely unfazed despite being hit by bloodlust that was enough to render an A-level adventurer immobile or even faint depending on some cases.


    The woman calmly answered, so Youko had some misgivings about her.


    You, what are you?


    I apologize. I am Sitri, the <em>demon</em> tamed by Danna-sama.


    T/N: Last chap for our daily releases!! Were back to 3x posting next week ? Was about to trante Sitris name to Shitori (the original) or Shitree but. Yeah it doesnt look nice, hahaha. Anyway, Youko and Sitri used different ways of saying Master  Youkos address is more of a Milord type, while Sitri used Danna-sama, which is used as Master and might also mean Lord Husband/ Husband depending on the context. I retained it to exin why Youko would release bloodlust.
