Bangisto, the adventurer's capital.
A month has passed since the S-rank demon Karimal was eliminated.
Thanks to the concerted efforts of the guild and adventurers, this devastated city has been completely restored to its original state.
The labyrinths that had been sealed off throughout the area have now been reopened, and adventurers are returning to their previous lives.
Everything is back on track.
At this time, in a corner of Bangisto, in a small independent house with a yard, a fourteen-year-old girl was practicing in the yard.
The girl closed her eyes tightly, and layers of magic with different properties surrounded her body. The magic originated from her body and was released. After experiencing an orbit like the movement of a planet, it returned to her body from another point.
This cycle repeats itself endlessly.
A leaf fell from the tree, swaying and floating around the girl, and then, like a small boat, it continued to move along the trajectory of magic.
I don’t know how long it took, but the girl was surrounded by leaves, but she seemed to be completely unaware of it. She kept her eyes closed from beginning to end, and her mind was completely immersed in her inner world.
Ding-ling~!
The gate of the courtyard was pushed open, and the wind chimes hanging at the door were disturbed, making crisp sounds continuously.
The girl in the courtyard opened her eyes.
The magic power surrounding her was instantly retracted from her body, and all the floating leaves around her fell to the ground.
"Irus, you're back."
Hulim stood up and said to the man who walked into the courtyard.
"Have you been practicing all this time, Hulim?"
Seeing the circle of fallen leaves around Hulim, Irus imagined the girl concentrating on her practice, completely ignoring the surrounding scene.
"That won't do, Hulim~."
Irus shook her head.
"It's good to concentrate on your training, but you also have to keep some attention outside, otherwise it would be terrible if you get attacked by surprise."
"It doesn't matter."
Hulim replied calmly,
"If someone came, I would notice it immediately."
"Hey~, no wonder you noticed I was back right away."
Irus smiled and handed a box to Hulim.
"What's this?"
Hulim took the box and asked curiously.
"This is our newest cake~!"
Irus replied with a smile,
"I just happened to see it today and bought it. Do you like it?"
"Really? Thank you."
Hulim hurriedly tried to open the box.
"Wait a moment, this is a rare new cake, at least you should savor it slowly as a snack."
"Hmm... That's true."
More than ten minutes later.
A pot of Ilus's special scented tea was brewed on a table in the courtyard, and in front of Hulim and Ilus there was a teacup and a piece of cut cake respectively.
"Oh, this is delicious!"
"Hey, huh~? I heard this was the work of a pastry chef who passed by~."
"Hey, do you know who that is?"
"Who knows? I didn't ask."
"It's a shame. If I knew who it was, maybe I could learn how to make his pastry."
"Hulim, you really do have a sweet tooth... By the way, has your training been going well lately?"
Hulim nodded.
"It went very smoothly. With Irus's help, I feel like I'm making rapid progress."
Ding-ling, ding-ling~!
Suddenly, a bell rang at the door.
"Hulim, are you home?"
"I am here."
Hulim walked over, opened the door, and saw Irene standing at the door in casual clothes.
"Irene, what's going on?"
"It's not a big deal, actually," Irene said with a smile, "I just wanted to ask Hulim if you have time. Do you want to go shopping with me this afternoon?"
"afternoon... ..."
Hulim hesitated.
"Of course I'll go~!"
Irus suddenly poked her head out and said with a smile.
"ah--"
Irene was stunned and saluted quickly.
"Lord Eluse."
"Okay, okay, don't be so polite to me. Just treat me like you treat Hulim."
"Hey, this..."
"No?"
Faced with Irus's "aggrieved" look, Irene immediately gave in.
"Yes, of course!"
"Okay~! That's settled then! By the way, can I come this afternoon too~?"
“Eh—”
"No?"
"...Yes, of course!"
"Oh my, this is so delightful~!"
Irus smiled brightly and hugged Hulim's head.
"Don't worry, Hulim will go there obediently this afternoon~."
"Irus?"
"Don't always bury yourself in practice," Irus said, poking Hulim's cheek with her finger. "It's also important to combine work and rest. Come on, smile!"
“… …”
Time quickly came to the afternoon.
Hulim, Irene, and Irus came to the entertainment district.
"Oh, that's great~, the entertainment district has completely regained its vitality~!"
Irus shouted happily, then jumped towards a cloud candy vendor.
“… …”
Hulim looked at her back and complained silently in his heart,
I always feel that this S-class expert standing at the top of the world is more excited than anyone else...
