Dungeon Exploration in My Thirties – Not Aiming to Be a Hero, Just Taking It Easy and Earning Along the Way Novel Review

Two years have passed since dungeons appeared in the world. After causing chaos and upheaval, the world had finally begun to stabilize. Kaede Obata, age thirty-two, made a bold decision—to walk away from his stable job and debut as a dungeon explorer. As a hardcore otaku, Kaede had always dreamed of diving into a dungeon. But at the same time, he had no desire to die, nor did he believe he could achieve the kind of heroic feats seen in stories. That was precisely why he waited. He waited for the day when information had been gathered, when the risks had been assessed, and when he could explore safely with confidence. And now, that day had come. With his resignation finalized, Kaede took his first steps as an explorer—joined by two friends who, by sheer coincidence, had the exact same idea. He had no grand ambitions of becoming a millionaire. No aspirations of becoming a hero. A little thrill here and there, days off when he felt like it. Work when the mood struck, play when he felt like it. His goal? A stress-free, carefree lifestyle. He paid no mind to how others saw him—just a laid-back thirty-something dungeon explorer living life at his own pace. (Note: Of course, just because that’s how he sees himself… doesn’t mean everyone else agrees.)
