YLTESCIA: A Reincarnator's Tale in the Lands of Merusia (3)

Chapter 441: Disaster-Class Illusions

"Ugh... My body hurts... Grey, it hurts..." ［Yuna］

"That's because you're still not used to it. Who told you to move so recklessly anyway? No, rather, how did you even sprain your ankle?" ［Grey］

"I just put too much force in my steps. I thought as a Transcendent, I wouldn't get sprained anymore, but I guess I was wrong... I feel so weak..." ［Yuna］

"Hahaha. Stop whining now. We already healed it, didn't we?" ［Grey］

"Uuu... But still... It feels weird..." ［Yuna］

Subtle groans and a pained moan echoed in the air, the young lady wearing a teary expression on her face as she held tight unto the young man. She was now being carried in the back of the latter, whining like a little child.

Well, it doesn't really hurt anymore, and the young lady was simply overreacting. She just didn't want to let go of Grey and wanted to be carried like a young child. Before long, she finally quit acting and played with Grey's hair. She is now bored.

A couple more seconds later, she stopped playing with her beloved's hair and just pondered for a while, then resting her head on his shoulders and giving him a warm and gentle embrace, her face slightly flushed, a light blush on her cheeks.

"Hm? You've settled down already? Are you done throwing your little tantrum? That was fast..." ［Grey］

"Mou... It's not like you believe me anyway. Should I take some acting lessons later? It shouldn't be too hard, right? I wonder how much it costs..." ［Yuna］

"Acting lessons... Haha. You can just say if you want to be spoiled. Not like I can go against you anyway. No, rather... Haven't I spoiled you too much lately?" ［Grey］

"Then can you lift my suー" ［Yuna］

"No." ［Grey］

"... But I haven't even said anything yet..." ［Yuna］

It has been a couple weeks since Grey and Yuna dove in the Labyrinth. They have just finished a training session against the Sovereign Arflus and now, the two are up in their usual sweet and flirty shenanigans, hearts and flowers in the air.

Well, they aren't just always flirting. They have also made a lot of progress against the enemy and have grown quite a lot. They have fought against all sorts of monsters and raided almost all treasure rooms, most, if not all, traps now disarmed.

For one, Yuna has now reached Disaster-Class and is now more than capable of thrashing any enemy in the Labyrinth other than the Boss. And as usual, she now holds the record of reaching Disaster-Class at 18 years of age.

Grey, the familiars, and the spirits have also improved. Grey is now in the middle ranks of Calamity-Class, Polaris following just a couple ranks before him, and the other familiars slowly cruising through Calamity-Class.

But perhaps the ones with the most progress are the spirits. They have now reached past E-rank, breaking through D-rank, and now lurking in the middle ranges of C-rank with their ranks growing faster than anyone else.

As soon as they became "Middle Spirits", they were ranked as "Fighters", but as soon as they reached D-rank, they became "Warriors", and then later "Champions" as they reached C-rank. The amount of gems they have has also changed.

"Master, Mistress... Welcome home... Eat lunch now...?" ［Alpheratz］

"Hahaha. Well eat soon. But you sure do love your meals, huh, Alpheratz. You really take after your Mistress." ［Grey］

"H-Hey! I'm not that gluttonous! And you eat more than me, Grey!" ［Yuna］

"Really? Does that include your snacks and sweets?" ［Grey］
