Let’s Manage the Tower - Volume 15 Chapter 4
Volume 15 Chapter 4, Inspection
Floria’s permission was quickly obtained.
Once the three of them were all together, Kousuke explained again what he wanted them to do.
The task was simple, to set up a large number of summoning circles.
The first thing to do was to set up a summoning circle for their kin, and then summon enough members to get rid of the naturally occurring monsters.
Once the naturally occurring monsters have been destroyed, set up summoning circles to feed the summoned monsters.
If there were too many monsters summoned, they could be moved to another level.
The point was to find out if it was possible to make a single tier be covered by just summoning circles.
At the same time, the efficiency of divine power collection can be examined in comparison with naturally occurring monsters.
However, if the summoning circle was made up to release lower level monsters, the cost of setting up the summoning circle itself could result in a deficit, as was discussed at the beginning.
He was thinking that it would be better to experiment with it after he could summon intermediate monsters, but he couldn’t do it until he reached the Tower level.
This Tower would be impossible to test if it were the first one, but fortunately, he could borrow divine power from other sources, so a small deficit was not a problem.
The Towers they were going to test were all small, so they would not cost much, considering their size.
To begin with, the summoning circle of beginner level monsters was not a big cost, considering his current income.
It would be no issue to set up a hundred of them.
After they get rid of the naturally occurring monsters, they would be able to collect divine power from the monsters generated by the summoning circles for feeding and leveling up, so they wouldn’t have a big deficit.
What was more difficult was how to manage them.
They may or may not be able to eradicate the naturally occurring monsters.
That’s why they decided to test it in the three Towers, where the Floor area was small.
If it was too large, it would take a long time to check the floors.
The management menu doesn’t show the number of each monster in detail, so they need to check it with their own feet.
Of course, if there were monsters, they would have to be fought, so it was a lot of work to check them.
That’s why he entrusted the task to all three of them simultaneously.
In Kousuke’s situation, there were Kouhi and Mitsuki, so he could wander around the floors, but this was not the case for the other members.
Except for Sylvia, the Shrine Maiden, monsters at the beginner level won’t kill them, but it would still be a hassle.
That’s why there were still a few of them that worked together to look around the floors.
As for Schrein and Colette, they can accompany each other to check the Tower since they both have the same kin in the Tower, but this was not the case for the other three.
Peach has the Defrayer clan, but they were busy doing intelligence work for Amamiya Tower every day, so she wants to avoid giving them any other jobs if she could help it.
“…That’s why I made something like this.”
Kousuke said, and held out a bracelet.
“What is this, exactly?”
Peach asked on behalf of the group.
“A divine tool that allows you to create simple barriers.”
Kousuke said lightly, but Floria held her head down.
She wanted to tell him not to casually create such things.
“How effective is it~?”
The one who asked that was Peach.
“You should be able to keep the monsters at bay in a radius of about four meters.”
“What level of monsters can we prevent from entering?”
“I haven’t tested it, but I’m pretty sure you can prevent an intermediate level one.”
Peach tilted her head at Kousuke’s answer.
“That’s very specific for something that hasn’t been verified~?”
“Oh, I see… I created it based on the barriers of this tower, you know.”
The barriers were based on the barriers set up in the summoned beast bases and safety areas.
The barriers themselves range from low-LV~high-LV, but the power in the bracelets was for high-LV.
“I created it so that accidents won’t happen, though I want you to act in groups because you never know what might happen. Especially Sylvia.”
The three of them nodded at the same time.
“Should we have them use it as an auxiliary tool to make it easier to investigate the Floor?”
“You mean we should think and act as if a battle could happen?”
“That’s right. Well, I don’t think anything will happen at the beginner level, though.”
He believed that because the hierarchy they were going to examine was a hierarchy where only beginner level monsters appear, no major accidents will occur.
However, since they were monsters, anything can happen.
No matter how careful they are, they can never be too careful.
“I guess so~”
After receiving the bracelets, the three of them attached the divine tool to their arms as they pleased.
Their doubts that it might not fit the thickness of their arms were resolved when the size was automatically adjusted once it was attached to their arms.
The size of the device was adjusted to fit the wearer.
“…The magic gear craftsmen of the world are going to go crazy over this…”
Magical tools that change size to fit the wearer were treated as relics of the past.
Today, they have been known as lost technology.
“Heh, I see… Do you think it would be a popular item if I put it in a treasure chest in the dungeon hierarchy?”
“”You better not (desu wa).””
Kousuke chuckled at the three of them simultaneously reacting.
“No, I wouldn’t put the same thing in a treasure chest, no matter how much I wanted to. It would take too much time and effort.”
The three of them looked relieved at his answer.
“Then what kind of things?”
“Umm… Like, something with fire magic in it?”
The answer was surprisingly decent, and Floria folded her arms as she thought.
“How many times?”
“A little more than what’s in common circulation?”
Magical tools were usually sold to those who cannot use magic or holy law to attack those whom physical attacks do not work on.
He thinks he can make one based on that.
“That could certainly be a popular item, but… There’s a wide range of magic tools available to the public, from pinpoint to pinpoint, you know?”
“Is that so?”
“Ah. Magical tools are completely dependent on the skill of the creator. Items made by skilled craftsmen usually don’t make it to the public, but occasionally, they do.”
“That’s right~. Those kinds of things are sold for quite a bit of money, aren’t they?”
Sylvia nodded at Peach and Floria’s words.
“I see. I even checked it out in a store before, but I guess I can’t really tell just from that.”
He had checked out stores that dealt in magic tools several times, but that wasn’t enough for him.
“Meanwhile, I’ll consult everyone before I put it out in earnest. And I don’t even know what will happen if I put the things I made in the treasure chest in the first place.”
He knew that he could register things to put in the treasure chest, but he had never done it before.
It would have been nice to have something that could be mass-produced, but he couldn’t think of anything that would be so convenient, but this seemed to be a good idea.
The self-adjusting bracelets seem to be a pretty good item, from what they told him.
“…I know I’ve gotten off-topic in a big way, but I’ll ask for verification anyway.”
“Ah. I’ll start by summoning the monsters as soon as possible.”
“Ah. I’ll start by immediately summoning the dependent monsters.”
“Me too~”
Kousuke hastily asked the three, who were about to head for the control room.
“Do you have enough divine power? If you don’t have enough, let me know, okay?”
“I’m fine.”
“Me too.”
“No problem for me either.”
All three of them had been doing summoning manually, so they didn’t use a lot of divine power.
This time, they would be using quite a bit of divine power, but even so, there was no way they would run out.
“Alright. Then I’m counting on you.”
With Kousuke’s last words, the three of them headed towards their respective management layers.
After seeing them off, Kousuke began to create the magic tools for the treasure chest.
