The Story of Delicious in Dungeon
The narrative of “Delicious in Dungeon” revolves around the daring escapades of three adventurers: Laios, Marcille, and Chilchuck. Initially, they were members of a large dungeon exploration team that had an unfortunate encounter with a formidable dragon. Although most of the party narrowly managed to escape, Laios’ sister, Falin, valiantly assisted their escape but tragically fell prey to the dragon.
Left with nothing but their tattered clothes and a handful of weapons, Laios convinces Marcille and Chilchuck to embark on a daring quest—to return to the treacherous dungeon and seek out the dragon. Their purpose is to resurrect Falin and bring her back to life.
However, the trio faces a daunting challenge as they lack essential supplies for their quest. In order to survive, they must rely on the meager resources found within the dungeon itself. This includes consuming the creatures that inhabit the dark labyrinth, such as monsters, wild animals, insects, and even the dungeon’s flora.
Initially, the idea of surviving on dungeon delicacies does not exactly excite or inspire them. However, their fortunes change when they encounter Senshi, a skillful dwarf warrior with an unexpected talent—he is a “gourmet” chef specializing in crafting delicious dishes from the unique and dangerous bounty of the dungeon. Senshi’s expertise in dungeon cuisine opens up a whole new world of possibilities, transforming their challenging journey into a flavorful and intriguing adventure.
