"Hmm... this should be good enough."

He wrote letters to Duke Davenport and Lord Dustiness expressing his gratitude for his noble title.

Given his position — both as a master to his disciple and guardian of their daughter — receiving help from these two nobles was only natural. Since this relationship wasn't public knowledge yet, he needed to maintain appearances for others to see.

In the letter to Lord Dustiness, he clearly indicated that he would always stand by his side, the meaning quite obvious. Lord Dustiness would surely understand.

"Miss Luna, please help me send these two letters."

"Yes, my Lord, we will send them out for you soon."

The Adventurers' Guild was quite convenient; such delivery tasks were typically assigned to low-level adventurers as a small opportunity for their growth.

"...Well, Luna doesn't need to call me 'my Lord'. After all, I haven't done much for Axel."

"Please don't say that!" Luna pressed both hands on the counter, her ample chest bouncing, "You are our Lord! Whether it's enemies or town matters — Beldia, Vanir, and the Mobile Fortress — you've done more than enough!"

"Hah… being admired by Luna like this makes me quite happy." But Adam showed no signs of smugness.

"That's right! In this town, many people are fans of you, the Hero!" Luna looked more adoring than most.

No, more like infatuated. The hearts in her eyes were practically sticking to Adam.

He felt a bit scared. First Sena proposing on the spot, and now he feared Luna might want to marry him too.

Better to leave quickly.

"Well then, Miss Luna, I'll be taking my leave."

"Please wait, my Lord!" Luna called out hurriedly as he tried to escape.

"...Is there something else?"

"Yes, there's a request seeking your assistance." Luna's expression showed slight worry.

Seeing her concern, Adam knew this task must be difficult.

He was also confused. In this season, even monsters were hibernating. What unexpected incident could have occurred?

Upon his inquiry, she explained.

"It's about the neighboring town." Luna searched behind the counter for the request, spread a piece of parchment in front of him, and pointed to a plain not far from Axel.

"This is..." Adam's expression immediately changed.

Wasn't this the plain where they had previously exterminated Snow Sprites and defeated the Winter Shōgun?

This plain connected with the neighboring town.

"What problem has occurred there?"

"A Dungeon has suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain opposite this plain!"

"A Dungeon—?!!" Adam immediately realized this must be where Megumin had experimented with Explosion Magic enhanced by Yunyun on the mountain peak.

As usual, this Dungeon must have been blasted open.

"So, what's the problem with this Dungeon?"

"No one can enter it."

"...Oh?!" Adam's interest was piqued.

Dungeons were common in Axel. But since it was a village for rookie adventurers, they were relatively simple — just right for beginners but trivial and boring for someone as powerful as Adam.

Now, hearing about a Dungeon that no one could enter, he was naturally intrigued.

"Is there any information about that Dungeon?"

"Yes!" Luna's expression also turned serious.

She pulled out another piece of parchment from her bosom, bringing with it a faint fragrance, and spread it before Adam.

"Please look here, my Lord! This is recorded in the Adventurers' Guild as a very special Dungeon!"

"Special... how so?" Following her finger, Adam frowned slightly, unable to see anything remarkable.

Luna's next words, however, shocked him!

"This Dungeon, after thorough investigation by the guild, has been confirmed — it was built by the Sage from 100 years ago!"

"...Sage?!"

Just as fantasy isekai worlds have Heroes, they naturally must have Sages too. He simply hadn't expected to hear this title.

...No, wait, he had misunderstood. In this world, people from other worlds frequently cross over, so Sages should be common. What seemed strange was that he hadn't heard about them until now.

"So, Miss Luna, you want us to explore the Sage's Dungeon... correct?"

"Yes, exactly." Luna nodded and explained, "If it were just an ordinary Dungeon appearing, even one we couldn't enter, we wouldn't seek help from other towns. At most, we'd post a request on the Guild's quest board.

However... this Dungeon has a strange mist surrounding it that's steadily spreading outward. It has already eroded the borders of the neighboring village, and eventually, Axel will likely be engulfed too.

While being covered by the mist hasn't caused any visible problems yet, we felt it important to inform you, our Lord, in advance."

"I understand." Adam nodded.

He knew that those who crossed over from other worlds, like himself, often had peculiar personalities.

Like that bald man who created both the Crimson Demon Clan and the Mobile Fortress — he had caused considerable trouble for this world.

On second thought, even if this Dungeon was built by the so-called Sage, its creator might also be someone with questionable sanity.

Why does Adam think this? Just look at Aqua and you'll understand.

Exactly!

Speaking of Aqua, perhaps he should ask her about the Sage. After all, this clearly involves people from other worlds.

"Ah, one more thing."

"What is it?"

"It's about the bounty for your defeat of another Demon King Army General." Luna's eyes gleamed with admiration as she spoke, "500 million Eris have arrived at the Adventurers' Guild, and you can withdraw this large bounty anytime after signing the documents."

"Ah... thank you."

After completing a series of procedures, Adam made a somewhat awkward retreat.

Luna's expression resembled a wolf eyeing a small white rabbit. She wanted to devour him!

In every sense of the word!
