Outside of Phosphorus, a hiding spot slightly further from the entrance .

While we were there, we could see various adventurers coming out with faces full of dissatisfaction .
[There’s suddenly no drops, what the hell happened??]
[I’ll definitely come back tomorrow . ]
[For now let’s just use our cash for a drink . ]
Phosphorus which doesn’t drop any cash has made more and more adventurers leaving early .
And obviously the reason why Phosphorus doesn’t drop anything—-
[Seems to be a huge success . ] (Ryouta)
[Yeap . Since Mermera is with us . It’s the same with Aurum-chan~] (Alice)
Alice said with a happy face as she has her new friend Mermera——or the spirit Phosphorus on her shoulder .
[The same? So if mermera returns the drop returns as well?] (Alice)
[I wonder… . ] (Ryouta)
[… . ]
[Mermera says it would . ] (Alice)
Without any words, Mermera’s flames suddenly flame up for a moment .
[Eh? Aah, that’s not it . But it’s better for Mermera to not return—-is that alright Ryouta?] (Alice)
[Let’s see, I think it’s for the best . ] (Ryouta)
[Then that’s it . Ah let’s go to other dungeons together♪] (Alice)

After she said that, all of her friends were motivated .
With their deformed look, they jumped for joy with their hands up, which was comical .
[Right! Hey Mermera come’re, and also Boney-chan . ] (Alice)
Suddenly remembering something, she opened her palm to indicate them going there .
Boney-chan naturally slid down to her palms, but Mermera who isn’t used to it was slightly confused, but he manages to head there as well .
Boney-chan was standing straight, whereas Mermera was floating on her palm .
Bone with flame, it really looked like a skull with a spirit infused .
[They look great together . ] (Ryouta)
[I know right! They’re both so cute together!] (Alice)
[I won’t say that they’re cute, but well they suit well with each other . They’re like bestest of partners?] (Ryouta)
[I think so as well . ] (Alice)
Alice has a face full of smile .
Being complimented, Boney-chan’s face showed a smiling shape as she rattled .
With Mermera being in the new team, Alice became excited .
Seems to me like she’s having fun .
[Alice, you should head to Cell to report . ] (Ryouta)
[Eh, me?] (Alice)

[Since you’re the one who has Mermera now, it’s better to show Cell about it . ] (Ryouta)
[You’re right! Alright, lead the way!] (Alice)
Alice nodded and had Gau-gau return to its dragon size, and have everyone ride on top of it .
[I’m impressed . ] (Rebecca)
Suddenly a voice was heard from behind .
Rebecca・Neon .
She who did not trust Alice to do the job, suddenly joined us and spoke .
[On what?] (Ryouta)
[I’ve heard of the story, to have Phosphorus not live in the dungeon to solve the problem?] (Rebecca)
[Yeah . ] (Ryouta)
[Which means all the achievements goes to her . ] (Rebecca)
[I mean obviously that’s the case… . ] (Ryouta)
Looking back, I could see Alice getting smaller and smaller in distance .
[The one doing all the work was Alice, I didn’t do much at all . So obviously she would get all the credit . ] (Ryouta)
[Are you sure about that?] (Rebecca)
[Yeah, of course . ] (Ryouta)
I immediately answered .
Rebecca stared at my resolution .
[… . . Hmm . ] (Rebecca)

Breathing out from her nose, she turned and walked away .
Oh right, she didn’t tell me the reason why she came to meet with me… . Is that alright?
Shikuro Dungeon Association, the chairman’s office .
It was rare of Alice to be in Ryouta’s shoe, where she went to meet with Cell .
[As expected of Satou-sama’s teammates, to be able to obtain a spirit as an ally . ] (Cell)
[Mermera’s not an ally, but a friend! Right~?] (Alice)
Mermera’s flame warmed up .
[I’m impressed . ] (Cell)
[With that, I’m the same rank as that person . ] (Alice)
[You’re talking about Rebecca?] (Cell)
[You knew?] (Alice)
[Somewhat . ] (Cell)
[I see… . then what do you think?] (Alice)
Alice asked as she was expecting Cell’s answer .
As Ryouta’s friend and teammate, she wanted to be useful as his family .
For that, she wanted to proof that she can be a spirit holder as well .
[Hmm, you’re not at the same rank as her . ] (Cell)
[Eh? So it’s a no? Is Rebeccsan really an amazing person?] (Alice)
[No, it’s the opposite . ] (cell)
[Fue?] (Alice)
She was confused .
[You’re actually even better than her, so you’re not of the same rank as her . ] (Cell)
[……Eeeeh!? For real?] (Alice)
[Yes, to be able to conquer a dungeon by yourself and solve the problem, that is a huge feat… . Fuh . ] (Cell)
Cell rubbed his chin .
Ryouta Satou, a being that can be worship would be able to influence the people around him .
To have a sense of inferiority because of Rebecca, she wanted to do something about it, and the recent event was something she could do .
[You’re much better than Rebecca, I shall guarantee that for you . ] (Cell)
[Yes!] (Alice)
Rejoiced, Alice and her fellow monsters looked at her happily .
[If there’s anything that I need for help, I, Cell Stem, shall ask you by all means . ] (Cell)
Cell said, not as the position of the chairman, but from the bottom of his heart .
In that sense, Cell sincerely welcomed Alice as a spirit holder .
Perhaps even more so than the person herself .
