Chapter 322
Teruru Dungeon, resting area .

A place where Cell has made after becoming a devout follower of Ryouta, and it is placed in almost every floor of every dungeon here in Shikuro .
The place has become something that you would stay and recovery yourself instead of heading back to the city .
Though it’s not all the time adventurers do that, but it is something of a necessity that they have come to accept .
And today of all days, there were more adventurers than usual residing inside the resting area .
“Oi Cruise!”
Suddenly, a man’s voice resounded inside the rest area .
The voice came from an old man, but his stature is that of a strong and experienced warrior, nothing compared to his age .
That man looked down from above, staring at the bed—– Beds that are placed there specifically for people to recover their fatigue . There, he stared at a young man, sleeping soundly .
The young man who presumably is called Cruise irritatedly opened his eyes, and got up from the bed .
“The hell you want Gren-san . ”
“Don’t you sleep now, com’re and have a chat with us . ”
“Huh, you having a strategy meeting?”
“No . Just your usual chatting . ”
“……I’m sorry, but I’m really tired right now, so please let me rest . I’ve fired three huge magics today, and I’m feeling drowsy . ”
Cruise who tried his best not to let out a yawn, answered Gren .
If you look closely at Cruise’s face, you can see some dark circles underneath his eyes .
MP works differently from HP .
For example, if you have 100 MP, and a simple magic uses up 1 MP, then you can use a total of a hundred times .

However, if a huge magic costs 50 MP, you can only fire at most twice .
The basic rule is that magic courses throughout one’s body .
When you forcefully use up half of that, it will take awhile before MP regenerates .
This explanation was brought to you by the great magician Celeste .
If you eat jelly with a straw, you can easily inhale half of it in one go, but if you try to eat the other half with a second sip, it often fails to suck well because the jelly would scatter all over the place .
Using that same example, if you divide the jellies into hundreds, then you can easily suck them out little by little without any problems .
Ryouta who was convinced by the analogy, replied with [After warming the battery, squeeze out the rest of the power . ], but Celeste was confused——-The usual talk .
“It is logical to rest when you’re inside a rest area . ”
“The hell you talking about, this is the time when our party can communicate with one another, strengthening our bonds . This is the basics of the basics . ”
“Eeeeeh?”
“Our party runs on a ‘at home’ system . Argh whatever just come with us and enjoy . ”
“Can you give me a break…… . . ”
While being pulled by Gren, he fell to the ground .
Then bringing himself up, he was barely keeping himself steady .
“You alright?”
Another guy who was beside him resting got worried .
“Y-Yeah . ”
Cruise replied weakly .

When he tried standing up, his head became foggy, and dizzy .
Seeing that, the other guy who was beside him, stood up and talked to Gren .
“Hey, he’s a magician right? Just let him rest . ”
“Ey nii-chan, don’t go sticking your nose into other people’s party . ”
He half smilingly answered .
“I’m just saying it out of good intention . Is it wrong to try to get familiar with your party, hm?”
“… . . ”
The other guy did not answer due to the shock he’d gotten from the reply .
After awhile, Cruise finally regained his composure, but his eyes was totally out of focus .
“You’re a magician right? Then let me teach you a magic word . ”
“A magic word?”
“You can just take it as a monologue . [Have a chat with Ryouta Satou] is the word . ”
“………?”
“Wh!”
Cruise who did not understand it tilted his head sideways, but Gren was the most shocked by those words .
“Is there a meaning to it?”
“Just try saying it . ”
“G-Go and rest Cruise . ”
“Eh?”
“However once resting time is over, we’re heading out okay?”
“Ah sure… . . ”

In a hurry, he quickly went back to his party .
Cruise was still showing a clueless face .
“See, it worked right?”
“I don’t know what happened……But thanks . ”
Giving his thanks, the other guy just casually said [just have some rest] and went back to bed .
Teruru’s resting area, one of those days .
The staff witness all of that .
“Hm? Hmm? Hmmm?”
After finishing up things in Tennessine, I thought of earning some money at Teruru when I saw something that peaked my interest .
Almost all of the adventurer’s Magic Cart has something stuck on it .
All of it is pasted with a 100% effective .
I went close to an adventurer who has that sticker on the Magic Cart .
It was slightly weird .
It’s something you often see when buying a refrigerator, or an air conditioner, and they stick some sort of magnet or contact information on the product .
There’s a map of Shikuro, and a place that is being marked .
And that location is——–My mansion .
“What the heck is going on here?” (Ryouta)
“It’s a talisman . ”
“Uwah!” (Ryouta)
Eve out of nowhere appeared behind me .
“Can you not appear out of nowhere, you scared me . ” (Ryouta)
“I got it . Next time I will show you a carrot before greeting . ” (Eve)
“What the hell is that!” (Ryouta)
“I will exhale the scent of carrot from behind . ” (Eve)
“That would be too unexpected!” (Ryouta)
“It’s okay if you just breathe in . ” (Eve)
“You’re making less and less sense!” (Ryouta)
We had a back and forth tsukkomi act .
“Anyways, what is this talisman you’re talking about?” (Ryouta)
“It seems that something happened in the resting area, which made people go to you for discussion . ” (Eve)
“And so they would come to our mansion?” (Ryouta)
“If something unfair happens, go and talk to low level, I think~” (Eve)
“…… . Aah . ” (Ryouta)
So that’s how it is .
“Low level’s house is a talisman . It’s close to being as amazing as a carrot . ” (Eve)
Didn’t think something like this would happen when I wasn’t around .
