Volume 4 Chapter 27-2 Unparalleled Live Broadcast and the Students' Great Excitement
Beyond that lies the 'Deep Floor'... numerically, the 76th floor and beyond, a place where humans cannot challenge.
"It's amazing, a 'breaking new ground' place for an exhibition."
"Usually, you defeat monsters deep inside the large ore vein like this! That's impressive!"
Even his sister, Nousa, seems to find it hard to understand this area.
Lucia stands nearby, full of energy.
...But a key point about those excited in a good way is that they are 'Dragonstone Kingdom citizens.'
Some foreign students also attend this school, and their parents are here too.
If a parent sends their child to a school with a hero, they are in a certain position.
"Th-that's a real monster."
"Could this footage be edited? It's hard to imagine live streaming from the dungeon itself."
"Sure, normally, footage from inside the dungeon is taken outside once, then edited and sent via Communication Magic. But..."
Adults gather in the corner of the hall.
They hold a small machine that outputs thin paper.
The paper shows a cipher with only numbers on it...
"What do you think?"
"...It looks like it's live."
I can't believe it. I don't want to believe it.
That's definitely what people think.
This time, Horace is streaming the dungeon raid, but many demand, "Is live streaming even possible? Let me join!"
Horace agrees to have some join if he can say, "Don't interfere. I won't answer questions."
But they can't communicate from inside the dungeon by themselves, so they rely on the 'distribution drone golem,' a type of 'Deus Ex Machina' system, to connect with people on the ground.
When the messages sent by Communication Magic match with the 'cipher table,' they conclude, "It's definitely live streaming."
But if they admit that, it means there is a person with that much fighting power in the Chaos Stone Dragonstone Kingdom.
Large merchant guilds related to 'Parasite,' like Alvaro and others, are often destroyed at once. Many fail when trying to gather metals from the big veins. Still, many organizations are waiting for a good chance.
"If we do not act now, they will monopolize the big veins' metals. We could pressure them before, but not anymore."
"We must avoid that at all costs. The Seraphgold Empire is famous for attaching various magic enhancements to its iron armor using magic tool technology. Securing the metals is absolutely necessary."
"If such footage spreads, people might see Seraphgold's technology as inferior."
"Damn... we made a troublesome thing."
The gathered men are high-ranking bureaucrats of the Seraphgold Empire. Their plans and reasons are as they said.
'...Hmm? Oh, that's a rare metal.'
Inside the screen, Horace picks up an ingot with interest.
'If we use this to make a magic tool, it might automate magic power operation. I heard ancient golems had 'will,' and this might be metal detected inside them. But I can't achieve that level now. For now, I'll secure this one.'
Horace adds some operation to the vortex before putting the ingot in.
To clarify, Horace's 'privilege' is limited to the 'Great Mine of Gold World (Kinsekai),' and he is allowed to take all coins and metals he obtains there.
But the dungeon he is challenging now is different.
As a 'teacher,' Horace cannot keep everything.
He is not short of money, and he doesn't want much. Usually, he sells metals to merchants of Dragonstone Kingdom. Still, he can hold a few metals if needed.
That is why Zulane made a 'holding frame' and shoved it in there.
"What is that?"
"I do not know. But, it is useless to think about things we cannot handle."
"What will we do now?"
"We cannot do anything just because he is wearing that armor. We will somehow get it."
"Is that possible?"
"Hmph, I will not let that greenhorn get any more carried away."
Their policy was decided.
"That technology is ours."
