After logging out of Fantasia World, Shiori was eating lunch for the time being.

"Thank you for the meal... Now then..."

And after finishing the meal and clearing the dishes, Shiori didn’t log back in immediately; instead, she sat on the bed and started fiddling with her smartphone.

"Hmm... I see..."

Shiori began investigating the sandbox quests she was currently working on, including the "Dealing with the Pandemic" quest.

Shiori was searching online to see if there was any information posted about what might happen next or what other sandbox quests were available.

"Hmm... ’Dealing with a Pandemic’ is the easiest of all the sandbox quests that have been discovered."

According to information posted online, you can accept the sandbox quests from Middle City onward, starting from the next town.

There is only one type of sandbox quest available in each town.

The difficulty, content, and time required for the sandbox quests vary from town to town.

Of all the sandbox quests discovered so far, the one Shiori is currently undertaking appears to be the easiest.

That is because:

The quarantine area that serves as the setting for "Dealing with the Pandemic" is large, but because the animal trails are generally connected in a grid pattern, it’s possible to get a general idea of ​​your location even without a map.

Since the trap is fixed in the center of the plaza, it’s easy to avoid stepping on it.

As for the men, unless they are restrained to the point of being immobilized, it is easy for them to escape after being raped, so if they escape at that point, there is no problem. If they do not want to be raped, they should just stay away.

The instructions stated that the antiviral agent was fixed in one of four corners of the isolation area, so it was best to first walk around the perimeter to find it.

"But, on the other hand, the erotic events tend to be simple..."

"Well, for now, she’s just being raped, isn’t she?"

"Being pinned down and forcibly raped...that’s definitely rape, and I can get excited by that, but..."

However, it was also noted that because it was simple, there wasn’t much variation in the erotic events.

Based on what has been confirmed, a significant number of cases involve simple rape where the victim is just pushed down and assaulted, and it has been reported that this accounts for 80% of the erotic events that occur.

After reading it, Shiori wore a slightly troubled expression.

"I was simply raped repeatedly by people who spoke to me in the same tone,"

"It’s true that there are times when you just feel pleasure and come... but it’s getting boring..."

"Hmm... Since I accepted it as a quest, I don’t want to interrupt it and leave it unfinished, and I want to see it through to the end, but... if it’s mostly rape like that, I’d rather just finish it off with some simple work."

"Well, let’s do something different here to change things up."

She was enjoying it, but at the same time, she was starting to get bored of it.

To alleviate her boredom, Shiori began researching information about the area around "The Town of the Forest People."

"Well...oh, this dungeon is close to town, so let’s go there."

And here are the results of her investigation.

Once she decided to go to the dungeon, after researching the route and other details, she logged into "Fantasia World."

And after logging in...

Having taken a break and temporarily left the quarantined area, Shiori returned to "The Town of the Forest People," and immediately turned her gaze outwards from the town.

"Well then... let’s go."

Shiori left town and headed for the dungeon, "The Sweet Flower Field."

The reason she chose it was:

Its location, being close to "The Town of the Forest People," and the photos of the dungeon scenery that were posted left a lasting impression on her.

This dungeon was chosen for that simple reason.

"Okay, we’ve arrived."

A few minutes later.

Having researched the route beforehand, Shiori arrived without getting lost.

"This is the ’Sweet Flower Field’... There are more flowers here than in the ’Garden of Delusion’ I saw before."

The interior was, as the name suggests, like a "flower garden."

The dungeon walls weren’t made of rock or anything like that, but were separated by hedges that were about waist-high for Shiori.

Colorful flowers bloomed everywhere along the paths and in the squares scattered throughout the dungeon, filling the air with a sweet fragrance.

"It was posted online, but...it’s really beautiful..."

"It might be worth coming just to see this..."

Even just looking at the flowers blooming along the pathway, they were in full bloom and looked very beautiful.

The flower fields filling the square seemed to be arranged with seasonal flowers, and they were so breathtakingly beautiful that simply looking at them was satisfying.

Were they also anticipating visitors who came solely to see the product?

It had been explicitly stated that no monsters would appear in the first-floor area.

There were benches placed at various points along the pathways, making it seem like a place where you could enjoy sightseeing at a leisurely pace.

Therefore, Shiori also proceeded slowly, occasionally sitting on a bench and gazing at the flower fields.

"......fault..."

We continued to move slowly like that, and after reaching the second floor area...

After walking for a while, a monster appeared in front of Shiori.

"Flara... Flower..."

"If it’s a monster... then I’ll take it down..."

What appeared was ’Red Flower Lv28’.

It was a flower-shaped monster with large red flowers blooming on it.

Seeing this, Shiori slowly grasped her rapier and took a firm stance.

"...Hmph!"

"Flower!?"

And then, a single flash.

She finished it off with that one blow. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

As she looked down at the ’Red Flower’ falling weakly and disappearing, Shiori relaxed her body and lowered the rapier she had been holding.

"...Phew. I’ve already finished leveling up, so I don’t think I’ll have any problems with the weak monsters."

That’s the level of Shiori’s current equipment, as she describes it.

The results of daily leveling.

Furthermore, by utilizing the "match to the maximum level of equipment" feature, all equipment was raised to the same level.

Therefore, even facing a level 28 ’Red Flower’ presented no problem whatsoever.

"Well then, let’s head straight to the boss while admiring the flowers."

Now that she’d finished checking the level, Shiori resumed her attempt to conquer "The Sweet Flower Field."
