"Master, a holder of the Madman Title has emerged."
"...Where?"
"Japan."
"Details?"
"The Status details are here."
"Level 9? That was fast... and he’s already manifested the Goblin Killer Title? No, wait. It hasn't even been a week since his Status was first registered."
"Correct. Specifically, he began diving into the Dungeon in earnest the day after he obtained his license. As of today, he has been active for only two days."
"I see. No wonder you bothered to report this. He's on par with the top-tier Explorers."
"What are your orders, Master?"
"...Meaning?"
"Given what happened with the previous holder of the Madman Title, shouldn't we dispose of him now while we have the chance?"
"Don't be so short-sighted. We don't know which way the label will push him yet. At the very least, we’ll observe him until his Berserk Skill evolves. Based on what Skill it becomes, we can predict his future path to some degree."
"He hasn't invested any points into his Berserk Skill so far. It's a high-risk Skill, so it's possible he might never use it."
"If that happens, so be it. The label’s influence would be minimal. For now, tracking his Status data is sufficient."
"Understood."
"The Madman Title carries less weight than other High-rank Titles. We don't have time to waste on such trifles anyway. The first signs should be appearing soon, and there’s plenty to do. Focus your efforts there."
"Yes, sir....Now then, Master, I have a further report."
"Go on."
"Wanderer sightings have been confirmed in several Dungeons across Tokyo, Delhi, Shanghai, Dhaka, and São Paulo."
"Tch... Already? Are the local Associations aware?"
"Yes. Because the Wanderers are monsters from the Deep Zone, every Explorer who encountered them was killed. However, the authorities have reviewed the camera footage and realized that an Irregular is occurring....Shall we intervene?"
"No. If they have the information, we can leave it to them."
"Are you sure? The national Associations are moving to keep it quiet. They're already scouring the internet to delete any leaked footage or posts."
"I’m sure they are. But this is a phenomenon that will soon become commonplace even on the lower Floors. They won't be able to hide it forever. Besides, there's no fundamental solution we can provide yet, and there's no end to playing catch-up with stopgap measures."
"............"
"More importantly, it’ll be a problem if these Wanderers cause a decline in Explorers or slow down Dungeon conquest....Release one of the baits we prepared. Get to work."
"Understood. I'll begin the preparations immediately."
