*************************************

It is very early in the morning when I finally wake up in our bed, next to Alessia and Delia, who are still asleep.

In the end, the illusory door did not lead people out of the labyrinth, as I had assumed, but led them back to the path.

It’s a good thing that for me, that means pretty much the same thing.

If it weren’t for my ability to use Space travel inside the labyrinth, we would have had to keep searching until we found an exit.

The exit doors in the no man’s zone are much easier to find than the ones that lead to the floor bosses, but even so, it would probably have taken us a while to find one.

And at that point we weren’t in the mood to keep exploring for even a minute longer.

During all that time, Delia did not wake up at any point.

Even when we laid her down on our bed to allow her to rest more peacefully, she remained unresponsive.

I guess she overexerted herself a bit to free me from the control of the sword.

Alessia and I were also extremely tired, but we were able to stay conscious until we reached the bed, where we lay down on either side of Delia.

Despite the exhaustion she felt, Alessia vaguely explained to me what happened as I lost control of my body and senses, but I think she only did so in an attempt to engage me in conversation.

However, I still didn’t feel like talking at that moment.

And my memories of those moments were really sparse in detail, as if they were the memories of a dream.

What had happened had left the three of us nerve-wracked.

Now that my mind is clearer, I think I was too cold and distant with my first girlfriend.

In those moments she seemed to be more concerned about my attitude towards her than anything else, silently crying as she tried to get me to speak to her about anything apart from what was absolutely necessary.

She finally gave up and fell asleep with her eyes still wet and red from the slow tears shed.

I don’t know why I was so mad, whether it was at her for her stupid competitiveness or at me for being so innocent.

Or maybe I was a little frustrated at both.

What I do know is that we urgently need to talk about that stupid inferiority complex of hers.

And about many other things.

But there will be time for that.

Now they are still resting, and it is a more than necessary rest.

Right now there are other things I can do.

Things that are better done when they are sleeping.

During these days I’ve been focusing on improving our Resistance stats, and for the moment that’s what I plan to keep doing.

[Delia] [Adventurer Lvl 43] [Archer Lvl 42] [Lancer Lvl 49] [Warrior Lvl 43] [Harem member Lvl 36] [War priestess Lvl 41] [Explorer Lvl 31] [Great Adventurer Lvl 24]

Emir: !!!

‘Why…

Haa…

It doesn’t matter’

For some reason I don’t understand, Delia has Saint disabled in her status.

Fortunately, that’s something I can fix in less than a second.

[Delia] [Saint Lvl 20] [Adventurer Lvl 43] [Archer Lvl 42] [Lancer Lvl 49] [Warrior Lvl 43] [Harem member Lvl 36] [War priestess Lvl 41] [Explorer Lvl 31] [Great Adventurer Lvl 24]

‘And now that I’m done with Delia’s status…

If I remember correctly, the upgrade condition for a certain talking weapon was to defeat a zombie dragon…

The question is…

Will the condition have been fulfilled even though I was the one who single-handedly killed the dragon?’

Looking towards the corner of the room where we left Delia’s weapon resting, I fix my attention on the talking spear.

[Blue wind] [(Rock+) (Feather+) (Celestial Chalice+)]

[The spear of the miracle. A Saint should obtain a staff as a sacred weapon, but at the moment of touching the spear, Saint Delia decided her destiny. With the weapon in her hands, Saint Delia temporarily unleashed her hidden potential as a warrior. Blue Wind can store 900% of the wearer’s total mana. Constant connection isn’t needed to maintain the mana. Something extraordinary will happen if the conditions are met]

‘With the weapon in her hands, Saint Delia temporarily unleashed her hidden potential as a warrior. Something extraordinary will happen if the conditions are met…

Haa… I guess that partly explains what Alessia told me…

And…

It seems that if the upgrade conditions were met…

Earlier Blue Wind’s description said nothing about her owner’s mana storage’

This upgrade at first glance may seem silly, but considering that thanks to her Celestial Chalice+ Blue Wind can empower Delia and itself using mana, the upgrade is incredibly beneficial.

And it won’t just be good for Delia when in combat, as she’ll also have a lot more mana at her disposal to heal people.

‘Come to think of it…

I think I’ve pondered on this sometime in the past but…

What could be the real reason why sometimes I can see the full status of objects and people but other times I can’t?…

And even more important…

How is it that the Zariche sword could camouflage its description?…

So many things that I don’t understand.’

[New Upgrade Conditions [1/3]: eliminate 100 Demons]

‘But what I do understand is that this new upgrade condition seems even more unfeasible than the previous one…

I learned about the existence of Demons relatively recently…

With that in mind, it stands to reason that they’re pretty rare beings…

Where the hell are we going to find 100 of them?…

But…

Haa…

Defeating a zombie dragon seemed a bit fanciful to me at the time, and yet it happened…

Who can assure me that at some point we won’t have to defeat a horde of Demons?…

But then again, it’s not like I’ve ever been particularly interested in improving Blue Wind…

There are things or people, in this case, more important to me.’

[Alessia Addari] [Great Adventurer Lvl 37] [Archer Lvl 30] [Sword Saint Lvl 3] [Explorer Lvl 33] [Strategist Lvl 35] [Survivor Lvl 19] [Harem member Lvl 34] [Barbarian Lvl 42] [Knight Lvl 46]

Agility=50 || Strength=50

Intelligence=50 || Luck=14

[(Slave)]

[(Royal Blood)]

[(Masochist Lvl 18)]

[Alessia Addari has 73 free points]

‘A new class!…

And not just any class, but Sword Saint…

But…

How come it activates itself?…

And it has already leveled up twice…

Hmm…

I think it is in the place that was occupied by Sword King, if I remember correctly…

I guess those kinds of classes are mutually exclusive, or something like that.’

[Sword Saint Lvl 3] [The pinnacle of what it means to be a swordswoman. A person who has acquired the ultimate understanding and affinity with the sword. Her talent with the sword is unparalleled, and she will never truly lose a fight as long as she has a sword in her hands]

‘The description definitely lives up to its reputation…

After all, it is not for nothing that it is said to be a class as rare and powerful as the Saint class.’

In the stories it is said that Sword Saints can move at lightning speed and can cut through anything, even using the humblest of swords.

‘Being such a rare and powerful class…

Yes, as I thought, it grants a skill…

Anyway…

Just one skill?…

Shouldn’t it grant more?…

Maybe I’ve had a wrong perspective of classes, and it’s normal for them to grant almost no skills…

But then…

Why do the simplest classes, like Knight and Adventurer, give skills?…

There really are things that don’t seem to make the slightest sense…

But…

Come to think of it, why should it make sense?…

Haa…

I wasn’t like this before…

Is this an effect of the improvement in my status?…

I’m raising my stats in a balanced way. There shouldn’t be any big changes in my personality…

But I had never been the reflective type…

Or at least not up to this point…

That’s why I created the Smart clone…

But I can’t depend on him anymore…

So…

This change is a good thing, isn’t it?…

I’ve always been a man of action…

Or so I like to think…

Humm…

I think for now it’s best that I focus on what’s in front of me.’

[Sword Saint domain Lvl 1]

[The Sword Saint has perfect control over her own body at the deepest level. The Sword Saint becomes much faster and stronger, while her reflexes and self-regeneration increase. Ultimate control also allows her to mitigate or completely suppress the pain of her wounds at will]

‘At first glance, it seems like a terribly powerful ability…

But we’ll see just how powerful it really is when Alessia puts it to the test, and…

It looks like her new ability isn’t the only new thing.’

[Critical Chance (Ex) Lvl 18] [0|3]

While looking at her skills, I notice that Critical Chance became its (Ex) version.

Looking at the description, I see that now the skill not only increases the chance of critical damage but also increases its power.

‘Haa…

No matter how many times I see it, I’m always amazed at how fast Alessia’s skills level up.’

[Wind Slash Sword Style Lvl.33] [1|3]

[Sword Breathing Style Lvl 66] [2|3]

[Counterattack Lvl 27] [0|3]

‘But it makes sense…

Since she doesn’t have access to something as useful as my profiles, it makes sense that she would use her skills much more frequently…

And that’s clearly paying off for her…

Compared to her, most of my combat-related skills are at a relatively low level…

Anyway…

Now that she’s finally managed to level up those two strange skills…

I have to ask her to teach me the way she uses Sword breathing style and Wind Slash Sword Style…

Those skills level up by the user’s understanding of them…

That means I could also get them to level up if Alessia teaches me…

Hmm…

I think I should look for a better sword for her…

Now that she has a super rare and powerful class that is related to swordsmanship…

Her Edge+ sword is good…

But I know that Erick can make something better than that…

Hmm…

There will be time to upgrade her equipment. Now I should finish editing her status’

[Alessia Addari] [Great Adventurer Lvl 37] [Archer Lvl 30] [Sword Saint Lvl 3] [Explorer Lvl 33] [Strategist Lvl 35] [Survivor Lvl 19] [Harem member Lvl 34] [Barbarian Lvl 42] [Knight Lvl 46]

And now that I’ve finished editing the status of the two most important people for me…

In the end, as always, it’s my turn’

[Emir] [Great Adventurer Lvl 46] [Sniper Lvl 43] [Sword Demon Lvl 2] [Assassin Lvl 43] [Harem Lord Lvl 35] [Traveler Lvl 40] [Hero Lvl 19] [Explorer Lvl 36] [Strategist Lvl 33]

‘Hmm, it looks like I also got a new class to replace Sword King…

But…

Why is mine different from Alessia’s?…

I’ve never heard of the Sword Demon class before…

What is it with me and stupidly weird classes?…

Do I have some kind of magnet for them?’

[Sword demon Lvl 2] [Someone who has suffered great injustices and who has decided to rebel against them. Nothing can stop him on his path of destruction; for now it is his enemies who will feel the overwhelming weight of despair. A swordsman who will not hesitate to use any means necessary to achieve his goals]

‘Hmm, the description is not as imposing as that of Alessia’s new class…

Surely the quota of injustice required to acquire the class had already been met during my childhood with my parents’ training…

What would be the other requirements to obtain it?…

Haa…

Whatever…

Anyway, it seems to be quite similar to Alessia’s new class…

Wait…

So…

Why does she have a new skill and I don’t?…

That’s unfair…

Could it be that my class isn’t as powerful as hers?…

But…

I had already concluded that the rarity of the class doesn’t have to be a decisive factor.’

[Critical Chance (Ex) Lvl 9] [0|3]

‘Haa… At least this new class did improve Critical Chance to its (Ex) version…

Beyond that…

It seems that our short time fighting off the path was extremely fruitful for all three of us…

But still, it’s an experience I’d rather not repeat again…

If I could use Space travel to get out, maybe I’d think about it…

But if you add to that the fact that my map doesn’t work in that place…

The risk is too much…

And no reward is more valuable than my safety, and that of the two people who are in bed with me right now.’

Emir: !!!

As I am absentmindedly looking at the available classes, I see that I have a new class with a very striking name, and that surprises me a lot.

[Dragon slayer Lvl 1] [The one who has slain the ultimate beast. He does not shy away from any challenge. In cases of need, he can even demonstrate a power increase similar to that of the most powerful beast he killed]

‘That’s an impressive description!…

If I’m interpreting it right…

This class can temporarily increase my stats by an amount equal to the zombie dragon’s stats…

That’s crazy…

Hmm…

I don’t need that much strength, and I’ve decided to not activate new classes for a while…

But…

Wouldn’t I be a fool to waste this opportunity?’

Emir: !!!

[That class can’t be activated at this time]

After deactivating the Explorer class, I tried to activate my new class.

But it seems that it’s not possible for some unknown reason.

‘What’s going on here?’

So I deactivate the Strategist class as well and try again.

[That class can’t be activated at this time]

‘@#%&*#…

Why is it that nothing seems to be going my way lately?…

Is it that I’ve recently angered some higher power or something?’

Emir: !!!!

‘No…

That can’t be the reason…

It’s true that I practically destroyed a Solus God temple after brutally slaughtering all of its inhabitants…

But I did it while saving Delia!…

I was saving one of his precious Saints…

And the people of that place were corrupt…

That should balance the scales…

Shouldn’t it?…

Hmm…

Maybe I should go see how the Solitary Temple repairs are going and ask Alessia’s former colleagues to add a few floors to the temple or something…

Haa…

Anyway, there’s no point in crying over spilled milk…

If it really turns out that there is a divinity terribly angry at me…

Then I will have to learn to live with it…

Right now I’ve got enough problems without worrying about it…

Anyway…

It’s funny that only I got that new class…

It makes sense, since I was the one who killed the dragon…

But, after seeing that Blue Wind did fulfill its upgrade condition, you’d think…

Haa…

Again, why am I trying to make sense of something that doesn’t necessarily follow any logic…

Focus on what’s in front of you, Emir…

What’s known is good’

[Emir] [Great Adventurer Lvl 46] [Sniper Lvl 43] [Sword Demon Lvl 2] [Assassin Lvl 43] [Harem Lord Lvl 35] [Traveler Lvl 40] [Hero Lvl 19] [Explorer Lvl 36] [Strategist Lvl 33]

‘I should get a new sword too…

Yesterday I lost my best sword…

But…

If I succeed in my experiments, I may already have an extremely powerful weapon at my complete disposal…

It’s possible that what I’m going to try is idiotic, considering what happened yesterday, but…

I think today is as good a day as any to test if I can make friends with that cursed sword…

Although…

I should first go to a well-insulated place…

Yeah…

It’s probably a beneficial idea to leave my girls alone for a few hours…

After what happened, I think both I and Alessia will do ourselves good to spend some time apart…

Besides…

It’s been a while since I’ve given them a chance to have a girls’ day out…

Not since the three annoying beauties arrived…

Hmm…

Maybe I better not stay away from my girls for too long…’
