Chapter 033
[author]
Thanks to you, in just one month of serialization, it has reached the number 1 daily, number 1 weekly, and number 7 monthly rankings in low fantasy, with an unbelievable number of views of 500,000.
I will continue to do my best to keep you entertained.

"From what I saw in this video, it seems like the boy's testimony is correct. Any objections?"
The supervisor seemed to be pretty sure that I was right, but still gave the other person a chance to refute. The man stuttered and started making a pointless argument.
"It's obviously a lie that a kid like that was going solo to the lower floors. Common sense tells us that it's impossible to go below the fourth floor without a weapon!"
Most dungeon video streamers are people who gave up at the sixth floor and can only operate on shallow floors. If you have the ability to go lower than that, you can make a living from loot alone without relying on video revenue. For this reason, there are very few people who do troublesome streaming.
"Hmm, it's true that you don't seem to have any weapons, and your armor is light and not very reliable for going to the lower floors. Even if you have magic skills, you wouldn't go solo. If it's not a problem, could you explain?"
It was a nitpick, but I guess he found it suspicious. It's bad manners to pry into skills, so I guess he doesn't want to force me to, but he'd like to clear up any suspicious points if possible.
"I have a unique constitution called Hercules syndrome, and I was born with high muscle density, so even if I train, my muscles don't get thicker, but they just get denser, so I look delicate. I'm strong, so I can hit with my gauntlets, and I don't need armor yet because my muscles are so dense."
"Oh, I've never heard of such a condition. Let me try it out."
The guard held out his hand to me, so I gripped it and put some strength into it. I gradually increased the grip, and the guard's face distorted in pain, so I let go.
"With this much power, there is no room for doubt. But if you have that much power, you would be invited to many parties, so why are you solo?"
"I only got the skill during Golden Week this year, and it's not combat-based, so I wasn't invited by the military."
"I guess it's the downside of judging only by skills. But, I guess it can't be helped, since there aren't many exceptions like you."
The guard's doubts were cleared and he seemed convinced that I was right. His expression towards me was softer than before.
"So, there was no fact of prey stealing. In that case, you guys made a false accusation and tried to steal money and valuables from a young explorer."
"Eh, no, it was just a misunderstanding..."
"You can go home now. You two still need to stay, though."
I thanked the guard and left the meeting room. I don't know what kind of punishment those two will receive, but they deserve it, so I want them to accept it.
"It seems like even if I dive in at this time, I'll be back soon, so it's a bit early but I'll go home."
Thus, my first exploration of the 2222 dungeon ended halfway through. This probably doesn't happen often, but I prefer the 2015 dungeon with fewer people.
