Reincarnated as a demon inside a dungeon-Chapter 35

I ignored my newly acquired partner, the raven that was in an orz-position, and thought what my next move should be.

The first order of business should be to find some way to escape this floor and that "Ghost King". If the hole that the raven was in really leads to Floor 7, then I don’t need to think too much about that problem.

In that case, it’s back to my main objective: use as much of this Dungeon as possible to evolve into the Kur Kigal race.

The question is: how?

I didn’t wanna take the Quest that’s linked to this floor due to the abyss... but since I’m already deep inside it (and beyond), why not check it out before making any decisions?

I made the Quest Log appear. As its name suggests, it’s the World System’s Quest Board so to speak. You can make it appear and disappear in the same way as the Skill Shop, but I’ve only checked on the Quest the moment I obtain it for then making a shortcut to see it without having to take up the Log and all, so I’ve yet to make full use of this function seriously. No better time than the present.

Quest Log

The Quest(s) I’m working on is shown on the Active Quest tab, the ones I’ve finished will be shown by clicking on the Quest Log tab, and the Nearby Quest is empty as... forget that last part. But... what the heck’s that supposed to mean?

"Don’t ignore me! Why are you ignoring this poor bird that you have forced your command over to see some Quest-" - Raven

The birdie’s noisy. Shut up already.

".....-!? ...!? ...!!" - Raven

So, it’s true that monsters that are tamed are forced to follow the order of their masters. Sweet.

You’re allowed to speak. Just don’t be noisy.

"What do you mean by... I can speak!" - Raven

Through telepathy only. And there’s one thing he mentioned just now that I’m interested in.

Did you say you could see the Quest Log?

"Yes... I mean, yes, ma’am!" - Raven

Skip the ma’am. And why can you see it?

"Why? Was it not you who kept the page open?" - Raven

Huh? Anyone can see this?

"Not normally, but like with [Identification] results, you can show the windows generated by the World System to others whenever you want. Damn, couldn’t resist not telling her..." - Raven

Ho? Then did the Quest Log turn visible because I wanted someone to tell me about that Nearby Quest?

"You can also make all your windows visible through the Options Menu. ...GYAAAA!!" - Raven

Mister Search Engine’s still not happy about having to spill all his knowledge to me. I wish he just learned to play well. We’re gonna have a long relationship... I hope. Not sure what could happen in this Dungeon.

And as for the Options Menu... It came up. Works just like the Skill Shop and Quest List. If someone could have told me about that a little sooner...

Hmm, so I can change the visibility grade of the System Messages and any other of those hologram-like messages, along with when I want the World System to notify me about level- or skill changes. It even tells me the recommended amount of messages one should select to show up. Then we’ll take that. Telling me when notable changes to the skills, such as when new abilities and Lv.Max is obtained. Else it’s not so different from before.

Good job. Here’s the reward.

I gave birdie one of the fruits I had gotten from the moles before. And why did that make the bird’s eyes almost pop up?

"F-f-f-f-for me? This is for me?" - Raven

...Why, yeah? You deserve some bonuses when you do a good job. freёnovelkiss.com

"Then-! Then does that mean I will get food regularly then!?" - Raven

Wha-? Of course, you will. Three meals a day, as long as the circumstances allow it.

"Y-yahoo!! What a happy day!!" - Raven

And with that outburst, the bird picked up the fruit with his hands and started to eat it... oi. Can you use those wings as hands? And he’s not pecking the fruit, he’s chewing on it. Are you sure your race is called Wisdom Raven? Looks more like a Toon Raven to me.

Going by this reaction, the Ghost Knight didn’t feed this guy well... doesn’t he know that animal abuse is just low? Not that a prominent monster slayer like me has anything to say... right? I’m not so sure now.

Ready for your job now...er... what shall I call you?

"I do not have a name. Only the ravens acknowledged by the Sages of the Library Tower was allowed to have names." - Raven

Hmm, that’s gonna be annoying. Wanna pick a name now?

"No, monsters cannot name themselves. A name for a monster is a symbol of greatness-" - Raven

But I was named since I was born?

"WHAT!? ...Then names are not that important after all?" - Raven

This cheeky birdy...

"Ah! I mean, someone as great as Master would have a name-" - Raven

Stop patronizing me, or you’ll be cursed with the worst name in generations.

"...!!!" - Raven

The bird’s got a loose tongue, but a fast mind. And any bad names he has will make me look equally bad, so let’s be serious about this. He’s a bird, so something birdy... argh, I’m bad with names. And he wants it to be cool, but my principle goes against chuuni-names, so...

What about Gust?

"Gust?" - Raven

As in the wind. You know, ’cause you’re a bird?

And because a gust is one of the weakest-sounding names for wind...

"I like it! Gust, my name is Gust... yes, this has quite a nice ring to it! From this moment on, my name is Gust!" - Gust (Raven)

...This guy’s quite easy to please. Sure, it makes things easier for me, but is he fine with this...?

Then, to your first, official assignment.

"As you wish, Master." - Gust

...Your 0.1th assignment. Just call me Garami.

"Whatever that pleases you, Master Garami." - Gust

Seriously, cut the "Master"-part out. Your second assignment is to help me select which of the maxed-out skills I should evolve first.

"Leave it to me! I didn’t read all the hero-stories in the Library Tower for nothing." - Gust

It feels like I got the slacker who spent 15 years at the Library Tower to read light novels and comics as my partner... gotta keep this guy on a short leash.

Ignoring the feeling of a chaotic future, I produced my Status Page with [Identification].
