“Huh?!”

ㅤ

I, who had been watching the intruders on the monitor, was shocked by the words the Goblin Lord had just blurted out.

No, I was surprised when the Goblin Lord spoke human language, but this shock was incomparable.

ㅤ

What did this goblin just say?

A demon lord’s executive?

Who?

The Goblin Lord?

Don’t lie to me, baldy.

No, really, I want someone to tell me it’s a lie.

I can’t accept this reality.

ㅤ

No, it’s true that it wouldn’t be strange for a monster like him to have such a grand title as a demon lord’s executive!

But why, of all places, is such a big shot coming to my sanctuary?!

If you’re part of the demon lord’s army, go to the hero’s place!

Huh?!

Speaking of which, I’m a hero too?!

OK.

Let’s calm down for now.

First, take a deep breath.

ㅤ

“Suuuuuuuuuuuuuu-haaaaaa.”

ㅤ

Alright, I’ve calmed down.

Now that I’m calm, let’s think about it again.

First, why is a demon lord’s executive here?

I don’t think it’s to defeat me or anything like that.

ㅤ

I have a reason for that.

The Goblin Lord has never tried to conquer my dungeon since he settled in.

I think he’s probably heard that the champion sent his subordinates to the second floor and beyond, and they never came back.

As long as he stays on the first floor, nothing will come up from below.

ㅤ

Rather, I think the Goblin Lord may not even realize that this is a dungeon.

After all, if you only look at the first floor, my dungeon is really just a cave.

And so far, I haven’t done anything dungeon-like in front of the Goblin Lord.

So, I want to believe that if I keep quiet, he might overlook me.

ㅤ

So, back to why the Goblin Lord, a demon lord’s executive, came here, but I’m not going to think about it because it’s a waste of time.

After all, I don’t even know what kind of existence the demon lord is.

There’s no way I can understand the purpose of someone I don’t know.

It’s like trying to figure out why Indians don’t lie.

There’s no way I, who don’t know much about Indians, can understand Indian thinking.

It’s a waste of time to think about it.

ㅤ

So, I won’t think about the purpose of the Indian. . .I mean, the Goblin Lord.

What I will think about is the risk of him continuing to squat here.

ㅤ

The first thing that comes to mind is the arrival of a subjugation team.

I don’t know what the demon lord is, but from the information that briefly appeared in the description of the hero’s title, I can at least tell that he’s probably antagonistic to humans and heroes.

So, it’s only natural that they would come to a place where there’s a demon lord’s executive.

Humans who are capable of defeating that monster.

Maybe even other heroes besides me might come.

Ugh.

I don’t want that.

ㅤ

Well, if the subjugation team only exterminates the Goblin Lord and goes home, that’s fine.

Rather, I’d welcome it if that pest was exterminated.

If there’s that much return, I’d be willing to grant permission to enter my sanctuary as a pest exterminator.

ㅤ

But, however.

In the unlikely event, in the unlikely event, that the Goblin Lord flees to the second floor or beyond and the subjugation team finds out that this is a dungeon.

. . .I might die.

I don’t know how dungeons are treated in this world, but I don’t think they’ll leave it alone.

And if the subjugation team passes that information on to other humans, the existence of this dungeon will become known to an unspecified number of people. . .

I don’t want that!

I’ll lose my peaceful hikikomori life!

ㅤ

But, I can’t think of a way to deal with it.

After all, I can’t even handle the Goblin Lord, which is why I’m in this situation.

All I can do is pray that the situation will somehow resolve itself, and in case of emergency, I’ll just keep strengthening the dungeon.

ㅤ

And for that reason, it would be problematic if the intruder were to return alive this time.

Because, now that the Goblin Lord has declared himself a high-ranking officer of the Demon Lord’s army, if those two were to return alive, the information would be transmitted immediately, and there is a high possibility that a subjugation team would come at once.

I have a feeling that the subjugation team will come sooner or later, but it’s obvious that the later it comes, the better.

After all, the more time there is, the more this dungeon can accumulate DP and become stronger.

ㅤ

“Please die. . .!”

While watching the battle between the Goblin Lord and the intruder in the living space, I fervently prayed for the intruder to die.
