"Good morning~! It's Shahzad~! Today, I'm going to enjoy another solo camping trip full of energy. Haha, I always say that, but I wonder if anyone is actually watching. I only brought an analog clock, so I can't tell if it's day or night. It's 2 PM, right? Oh, wait, it's not 'good morning,' it's 'good afternoon'."

Comments:
- "It's the middle of the night."
- "There are so many people watching you man!!"
- "It's the middle of the night and there are already over 30,000 people watching you!"
- "And this is what happened right after the release without any prior notice. There will be more to come."
- "Good evening"

"Um... I just woke up, and while I was there I went down about four floors to look for some drinking water. So I think I'm on the 42nd floor of the Dhaka's Center S-class dungeon right now."
---
Comments:
- "Unprecedented lol"
- "Wait, isn't this the first time in the world that someone has made it through forty floors of an S-class dungeon?"
- "That's obviously a lie."
- "This person often makes mistakes, but he doesn't lie. Thousands of people have tested and proven it."

"My food supplies are running low, so I want something to eat... Ah, there's a Gonohottya Mushroom. If you're about to enter the dungeon for the first time, be careful of this thing. The thing that has killed the most people in the dungeon isn't a vicious monster, it's this Gonohottya Mushroom. It has a really fragrant smell, and if you smell it on an empty stomach, you can't help but eat it, even though you know it's poisonous. Then the corpses are used as seedbeds to increase their numbers. It's a terrifying mushroom. Well, I don't think there's any need for me to warn you about it now. It seems to be an ironclad rule that one member of the party must always be eating something. If there's no one to stop them, they'll seriously be wiped out. It's also bad that they're growing all over the dungeon. Ah, I'm hungry... This looks delicious."
---
Comments:
- "Oh no, no, no, no!"
- "Imagine reaching the 42nd floor and then dying to a Gonohottya Mushroom!"
- "No, this isn't funny; stop him!"
---
"Actually, not many people know this, but there is a way to eat Gonohottya Mushroom safely. The stomach acid of green slime has the effect of neutralizing the toxins of Gonohottya Mushroom. Slime doesn't have a stomach, so stomach acid would be strange. What is it? Digestive enzymes? Anyway, you put a stone or something with the smell of meat on it and feed it to the green slime. Once the slime has swallowed the foreign object, it will spit it out along with the digestive enzymes. All you have to do is dip Gonohottya Mushroom into the digestive enzymes and you're good to go. The color will change from white to reddish brown in a few minutes, so it's easy to tell when it's ripe. Then just cook it to be sure, and it's safe and delicious to eat."

Comments:
- "This info is groundbreaking. This is why I can't stop watching his streams."
- "If this is true, it'll revolutionize dungeon food logistics."
- "Forget that—it'll flip dungeon strategies on their head!"
---
"But, you know, at this level, you hardly see slimes anymore. What should I do…?"
---
Comments:
- "He's frozen in place, staring at Gonohottya Mushroom!"
- "No, no, no! Shahzad, don't do it!"
- "Why does this person always just broadcast one-sidedly and never read the comments!?"
- "Shahzaaaad!!!!!"
---
"Ah, zombies! Look, look, look, everyone! There are zombies! Wow, they're roaring with energy today too."
---
Comments:
- "Phew, he threw away the mushrooms. Thank goodness..."
- "Shahzad's stream is really nerve-wracking..."
- "This guy is like a baby and I can't take my eyes off him"
---
"They say that if you get bitten or scratched by a zombie, you'll be infected with the zombie virus and turn into a zombie yourself! So, while I'm here, I'll try getting bitten a little, just to see. Ouch, that hurts! Ahahaha! So Lively.... Ouch, that hurts, that hurts! Ahahahahahaha!"
---
Comments:
- "Terrifying."
- "What are you doing?!"
- "What do you mean, 'just to see'?!"
---
"Don't worry. If you get bitten, you won't turn into a zombie. It's just the name and appearance of the zombie that has caused the rumor to spread.... But, you should be careful because a zombie's mouth has 2,000 times more bacteria than a stray dog's. You'd definitely die of an infection if bitten."
---
Comments:
- "'Be careful,' he says while being bitten!"
- "No, seriously, stop looking at us like that."
- "How can he give a straight-faced warning while being bitten by a zombie?!"
---
"That hurts... I was bitten quite deeply. But it's better to be safe than sorry. I have medicine prepared for times like this. It's a medicine compounded from materials found in the dungeon, and it's an excellent medicine that will heal a wound of this magnitude in just a few minutes. Plus, the materials are all easy to gather. Everyone, make sure you're prepared the next time you go into a dungeon."
---
Comments:
- "Tell me the recipe!"
- "Isn't that a better healing potion than Lal-Potion?"
- "Just by patenting the formula, he could make hundreds of thousand."
- "Are you stupid? It'll be in millions ."
- "Are you going to be okay, Shahzad? The pharmaceutical companies are gonna try to kill you now..."
"They learned their lesson after the Kaiser incident. They messed with Shahzad, and one of the world's leading guilds was destroyed."
"Rumour has it that now, every major guild is fighting to recruit him, or so the rumors say."
---
"Another misconception about zombies is that they are rotten. The rottenness of zombies is like the dirt on humans. They are only dirty on the surface. When you open them up... look, the inside of the body is a beautiful pink color, right? This meat is surprisingly delicious."
---
Comments:
- "AAAAHHHHHHHH!!! GROSSSSSS!!!"
- "This is a real food crime…"
- "I can't eat meat for three days…"
- "What even is 'three days of Meat Academy' supposed to mean?"
- "Sorry, I can't eat meat anymore…"
---
"Interestingly, the anatomy of zombies isn't at all like humans. They don't have organs, bones, nerves, or even a brain—just a solid chunk of meat. But they take a humanoid form, which is fascinating. A lot of monsters fear humans, so I'm sure this is part of their survival strategy. Oh, by the way, do you know the difference between monsters and beasts? Some people think it's about appearance—humanoids are monsters, and animal-like ones are beasts. But actually, the distinction in survival is whether they're edible. Beasts are those you can eat, and monsters are those you can't. It's not an academic classification, just a surviving cultural. That means zombies aren't monsters but beasts."
---
Comments:
- "Even his knowledge is also entertaining."
- "But you're the only one eating zombies, Shahzad…"
- "Whoa, the stream just hit 50,000 concurrent viewers."
"Look at all the international comments rolling in now."
---
"Well then, let's start cooking! First, for safety's sake, we'll cut off the head and limbs. That's it!"
---
Comments:
- "What was that? The Nine-Headed Dragon Slash?"
- "Can someone explain how he just decapitated and dismembered it in one strike?"
- "Easy. You just strike five times in one blow."
- "Got it."
---
"Since the meat on the head and limbs is tough and not very tasty, let's discard it. Oh, but be careful—it'll keep moving for about three days even after being cut off. It's safer to toss it far away or crush it under a rock. Now, onto the main part: the torso. Here's a critical point to note: in the area equivalent to the human solar plexus, there's a zombie core. As long as this core remains intact, the zombie will regenerate endlessly. See, this is the core. It's easier to identify because it's redder compared to the surrounding flesh. Zombies are a valuable food source, so after taking the meat you need, it's best to leave the core untouched and release it."
---
Comments:
- "Does anyone know the details about this guy?"
- "All we know is his name."
- "We're not even sure if 'Shahzad' is his real name."
- "He did say in an old stream that he's self-conscious about the name, so it's probably his real one."
- "He also mentioned disliking flashy names that stand out."
- "Shahzad isn't flashy, but his last name must be rare."
- "He did say he's never met another Bangladeshi person with the same surname as his, so it's probably extremely uncommon."
- "Why did he specify 'Bangladeshi' though?"
- "Maybe because the sound of his surname resembles a foreign one?"
- "So, he's in his late twenties, about 175 cm tall, named Shahzad and has a super rare surname (possibly foreign-sounding?). That's all we've got?"
- "With such a rare surname, you'd think someone could figure it out…"

"Zombie meat contains a unique component called Bhalo Laga, which apparently doesn't exist above ground. It's said to not only boost energy but also have beauty-enhancing effects. The reason I'm so energetic despite spending months in dark dungeons might be thanks to this substance. But still, Bhalo Laga, seriously? Zombies and Gonohottya Mushroom (Massacre Mushrooms) both have such ridiculous names. Above ground, new species are usually discovered by academics or professionals, so their names are more respectable. But in dungeons, adventurers find new species all the time, and the names become chaotic. They call it the 'Dungeon Glitter Naming Problem.' There was talk of an international organization standardizing the naming process, but adventurers protested, so the idea was scrapped. Personally, I don't care much, so if someone else names things for me, it's a relief. But still, Bhalo Laga—hilarious, right?"
---
Comments:
- "...If I remember correctly, Shahzad was the one who named both Gonohottya Mushrrom and Zombie..."
- "It's not like he named it, but rather that this person started calling it by a random name during a stream, and that became the official name."
- "By the way, the name "Bhalo Laga" was first mentioned by Shahzad on a stream about three years ago, where he said jokingly, "When I eat zombie meat, I feel energized. I wonder if it contains some strange nutrients? It's like there is a bhalo laga (good feeling) component inside the meat, lol," and it was later adopted as the official name of the component."
- "What even is this guy...."
---
"Well then, let's cut off some meat for cooking. I'm starving, so maybe a little extra… Hey, stop squirming. This sword is made of Orichalcum, which is great for hunting monsters but not ideal for delicate work like cooking. That's where this comes in… Ta-da! The reverse scale of a Three-Headed Dragon! It's the best tool for precision cutting, and I swear by it."
---
Comments:
- "Orichalcum!?"
- "And a Three-Headed Dragon's reverse scale!?"
- "He just casually mentioned two legendary-class items…"
- "That reverse scale looked flawless. I've never seen an intact one before."
- "Most of the ones in circulation are old, fallen scales. Even those are super rare. But the one Shahzad has, has vibrant coloring. Could it be…?"
- "Wait, did he actually hunt a Three-Headed Dragon? Solo? Even A-rank parties retreat when they encounter one…"
- "Also, why is he using such a legendary item as a cooking knife…"
---
"Oh, by the way, I didn't hunt it. No way I could take down a Three-Headed Dragon. I just snuck up on it while it was sleeping and plucked the scales. Three in total. It got super mad after that. Haha, well, they're called reverse scales for a reason."
---
Comments:
- "Phew, I'm relieved. Shahzad is still human after all."
- "No, he's still ridiculous."
- "Anyone would be furious if you plucked three scales off them, reverse scale or not."
- "If Shahzad can't hunt a Three-Headed Dragon, then no one can."
---
"Here's a fun fact: everyone thinks the Three-Headed Dragon is a single entity, but it's actually a family—a father, mother, and child fused together. The heads are the male, female, and their offspring. When the offspring mature, they split off, pair with another dragon, and form new families. That's how they reproduce. Interesting, right? And you know the Two-Headed Dragon? They're often seen as a weaker subspecies of the Three-Headed Dragon, but that's a huge misunderstanding. Two-Headed Dragons are actually elderly pairs of dragons that can no longer reproduce."
---
Comments:
- "More information that sounds like it belongs in a scholarly paper…"
- "That explains why Two-Headed Dragon materials are lower in quality compared to Three-Headed Dragons."
- "They're just worn out with age. Humans can't tell how old dragons are anyway."
---
"Before I realized this, I used to eat them every time I encountered one. The central head regrows after being severed, so I thought it was fine. But it turns out the central head is the offspring, and regrowing means they're just having another kid. Once I figured that out, I couldn't eat them anymore—just taking a reverse scale is enough."
---
Comments:
- "So that's the reason, huh…"
- "Yep, definitely not human."
- "Calling it 'eating' instead of 'killing' is so casual, it's terrifying."
---
"By the way, I didn't need all three reverse scales. I kept one and stashed the other two in a treasure chest on the 38th floor along with some other items. I should remember to retrieve them later. All right, the meat is neatly prepared. I'll steam it with some herbs, and it'll be done. My hands are bloody now, so I'll go wash up. I'll release the zombie too. Please wait a moment!"
---
Comments:
- "Ah, Shahzad's signature treasure chests!"
- "Shahzad's signature? What's that?"
- "Shahzad has a habit of storing materials and treasures he can't carry in empty treasure chests. But he always forgets about them. Those chests become way more valuable than unopened ones. That's why they're called 'Shahzad's signature chests.'"
- "He's like a squirrel."
- "Are people allowed to take from those chests, though? Aren't they technically his?"
- "It's a legal gray area. By dungeon law, the contents of a treasure chest belong to the first party that finds it. But no one ever anticipated someone would use empty chests as storage and then forget about them."
- "Well, Shahzad doesn't seem to care, so I guess it's fine?"
- "Dungeon law is still incomplete. There are lots of issues, like disputes over marked but unopened chests."
- "Laws can't keep up with someone like Shahzad."
- "Honestly, Shahzad's antics are probably speeding up legal reforms."
- "Wait. Why is no one mentioning the boss? If Shahzad is on the 42nd floor, doesn't that mean he soloed the boss on the 40th floor? That's insane."
- "Well, yeah, but…"
- "Are you new here? If that shocks you, you're in for a rough time."
- "According to Dr. Nishat, Shahzad could solo clear S-rank dungeons up to the 60th floor. There's no proof, but it's believable after watching his streams."
- "Even now, he's playing it safe. He considers this a 'solo camping trip.'"
- "...I know this has probably been said a million times already, but can I just say it again?"
"What even is this guy, is he really a human?"
