"Sword Princess" Ais Wallenstein.

The person Bell Cranel, the future protagonist, admires.

It was because of meeting her that Bell Cranel awakened the abnormal skill "Single-Minded Pursuit."

It was also thanks to Single-Minded Pursuit that he managed to evolve from Level 1 to Level 2 in just one month.

"But that's all in the future. If I remember correctly, Ais is still Level 1 now, and only 7 years old!"

Thinking about this, Mika's thoughts began to wander.

"I wonder if there's a chance to meet her in the upper levels? After all, the upper levels aren't that big!"

As they pondered various possibilities, Mika and his two companions quickly returned to their home in the western part of the city.

"Welcome back."

Before the three could reach the front door, Yahweh had already run out from the house.

After looking over the three of them, Yahweh suddenly chuckled and said, "It's great that you're not injured."

"Not only are we not injured, even if we were, you wouldn't be able to see it. After all, we have Orario's strongest healer, Airmid, with us!"

Unlike Mellie, who calls herself 'Orario's future strongest mage', Airmid has already become Orario's strongest healer after awakening her magic 'Dia Fratel'.

"I guess that's true!"

Lightly tapping her own head, Yahweh smiled and said, "You must be tired after a day of exploring. I've already prepared the bath for you, go ahead and soak."

"Thank you, Yahweh-sama!"

Hearing Yahweh's words, Airmid and Mellie's faces lit up with happy smiles.

After a day of dungeon exploration, the three's bodies had been drenched in sweat countless times.

Add to that the dust from the rocky paths, and Airmid and Mellie had been longing for a good bath.

Watching the two quickly rush into the house, both Mika and Yahweh smiled.

Then, the two walked back home while chatting.

"I remember Yahweh-sama was planning to celebrate, right? Why don't we go out to eat today? The three of us made quite a profit today."

"Is that so? I knew you three could do it. In that case, let's go to 'The Benevolent Mistress'. It's close to us too."

"Then it's settled."

...

"Cheers!"

They clinked their glasses together and drank the contents in one go in a joyful atmosphere.

"Ahh, that feels good!"

Leaning back in his chair, feeling the pleasure of drinking after a bath, Mika let out a contented sigh.

Looking at the unfamiliar ceiling, squinting his eyes, Mika savored the moment.

Listening to Mellie constantly recounting their dungeon experiences to Yahweh, Airmid's timely interjections, and Yahweh's exclamations and laughter.

A smile also appeared on Mika's face.

This was the life he pursued.

After savoring for a while, Mika curiously looked to the side, surveying the tavern.

The Benevolent Mistress.

The tavern opened by Mia Grand, the retired captain of the Freya Familia. In the future, this place would be a den of hidden dragons, concealing many strong individuals with unknown pasts.
