Volume 5 Chapter 29: Inferno Behind Him

"Hmmm," Keith didn't notice their expressions as he headed to the adventurer's guild. He hummed a tune as he walked. It's the morning. The sun was coming up, making him realize it was morning.

"Madison," Keith called. And Madison was surprised, "Keith, where have you been?!"

"In the dungeon." Keith smiled.

"But you were gone for a week!" That was how long Keith was gone. She was worried something terrible must've happened.

"Isn't this normal?" From what Dennis said about his party, they would stay in the dungeon for a month.

"That's if you are in a party. You're all alone," Madison retorted. She had heard Dennis's story, but that was him with supplies and a six-man team! Keith, on the other hand, was all alone!

"Oh, I will make a note of that."

"Don't you, "I will make a note of that," with me!" Madison roared. This guy was too nonchalant. Like that, he was chewed out by Madison in front of everyone. It was quite a sight.

"Madison, you should stop." One of her colleagues grabbed the woman's shoulder. Her expression was so ferocious. She was scaring the other receptionist. Heck! Even the adventurers were afraid.

Never mess with Madison.

"Fine." Madison took a big huff. She felt tired from screaming so much.

"I'm sorry for worrying so much, Madison." Keith got up from the ground with a smile.

"You better remember what I said." Keith's look made it seem that he wasn't listening at all!

Stolen story; please report.

"Understood." Keith laughed.

"Did you bring back anything to sell?" Since he was gone for so long, he had to have brought a lot back.

"Yep! I have a lot of things! Check it out!" Before Keith could have the chance to summon all of them out,

"Do it in the back!" Madison quickly blocked him. She knew what Keith was. This guy would bring in bulk. That would definitely destroy the countertop.

"Haha, yeah." Keith laughed as he followed after her. In the back, there were many dismantlers. This was a place where adventurers could throw monsters' bodies to get something out of them.

"Drop it here," Madison brought him to a free spot.

"Gotcha." And like that, Keith dropped off all the monsters in his storage. And there was a giant thud sound!

Keith turned to them, "This is all I have."

"..." Madison and the other receptionist were silent.

"Too much?"

"...Yeah," Madison nodded. Keith had always brought a lot of things back. But this one took the cake.

"Let's get's dismantling, boys!" One of the dismantlers turned to the others.

"Understood!" This was more than a one-person job as they got to work. While they did that,

"Keith, how far did you go down?" Madison saw some monsters that were found deep inside the dungeon.

"I-" Before Keith could say something,

"There's a floor boss!"

"Eh?" The others were slacked-jawed.

"Look at that weapon!" One of the dismantlers raised a club the sheep monster used. Madison turned to Keith. She said nothing. But her expression said it all!

"Ehehe." Keith laughed it off.

"When will you guys be done?" Keith quickly headed to the dismantler, not looking at the inferno behind him.

"I think in two days."

"Then I will take some bodies." Keith took back some remains. If he butchered it, Keith could get more meat. However, it would take too long to do it.

"I'll come back in a few days," Keith quickly dashed out. Madison was going to blow her lid—it was only a matter of seconds! He wasn't planning to go through that again.

The next place Keith went to was Iron Hilde.

"Yo! Skar!" Keith smiled as he entered the shop. However, when he did, he saw there was another person there. It was a student from the academy. What surprised Keith was that it wasn't a dwarf.

"Sorry about that, Senior." Keith scratched his head. He noticed the color of her tie. She was an upperclassman.

"It's fine." The woman shook her head, "Are you a student from the academy?" Noticing how he called her, he was an underclassman.

"Mmhmm. I'm a freshman." Keith smiled.

"I see."

"Brat! Why are you here?!" Skar came out from the back. His expression was dark when he spotted Keith. But Keith laughed,

"Because I need some more swords."

"Hah? What do you mean?"

"Well, you see." Keith brought the destroyed swords out. And when Skar saw it, his expression turned blank,

"I'm going to end you!" Skar roared as he jumped at Keith!
