The group continued grinding on the island through the night as the monsters were much stronger at night and they got more monster materials.

"We sure did get better drops from these monsters at night than when we grinded in the day" Otome said

"Yep" Rem said with a nod

"We're used to fighting in the dark, so it's nothing new" Raphtalia said

Rem nods, he turns to Malty.

"How are you holding up?" Rem asked

"Better than I expected. I don't have as much experience with fighting at night as the rest of you are" Malty answered as he nods

The rustling of the bushes caught their attention as some of them were on alert, but Rem wasn't worried as he knew who it was.

A scythe blade poked out from the bushes before it was cut down as it reveals L'Arc and Therese there.

"Oh thank goodness, we found ya kiddo" L'Arc said relieved

"Why'd you out here in the middle of the night?" Raphtalia curiously asked

"Why'd you out here in the middle of the night?" Raphtalia curiously asked

"The ferryman was starting to panic since you guys were staying out so late" Therese said

"So you two decided to come look for us?" Irene asked

"C'mon you two, it's not like adventurers dying on a quest is anything new" Gin said

"That doesn't mean we're gonna ignore you, cause I'd never be able to sleep at night if my associates were to turn up dead or missing" L'Arc declared

"Associates? You mean us?" Gin asked

"Well, yeah. What would you call us? You wouldn't say we're not, would you?" L'Arc asked

"You're not wrong" Rem said

"We haven't even been here a full day. I understand wanting to grind as fast as possible, but let's call it a night" Therese said

"Yea. Besides, I can tell everyone is starting to get tired" Rem said as his party agreed

"Very well! Care to join me for a drink?" L'Arc asked as he wrapped an arm around Rem

Later, the heroes and their parties were now at a pub within the inn as they were enjoying a night of food and drinks.

"To our safe return! Cheers!" L'Arc said as he downed his beer in seconds

Rem smiled as he chuckled at L'Arc as he relaxed in his seat as he drank from his bottle of sake 🍶.

His party were doing their own thing as the girls were enjoying themselves as they either ate or drank, Gin was having a drinking contest with Motoyasu which he knew the idiot would lose since he can't hold his liquor.
