World's Fastest Level up!

After that, the days of treatment continued smoothly for a while. However, because I forcefully moved my body the other day, my condition worsened. Because of that, the number of days I had to get treated was more than it originally was.

And as the number of days we initially scheduled to be here had passed, Claire and the others went back to Yoizuki first, leaving me alone in the Classion. Even so, I am very grateful to Nanami-san who is still continuing the treatment despite that.

Anyway, after receiving the treatment, Nanami-san told me to move my body to familiarize myself with my current magic power, 2 sets a day. As a result, my condition is getting better day by day. At the same time, I also noticed a change that happened to me.

"… My perception towards magic power is clearer than ever."

In the battle against Cain, due to receiving a large amount of magic power from Cursed, a lump of magic power that wasn't mine was created inside my body. Perhaps this phenomenon was caused because that lump of magic power has melted, training my body to blend those magic powers with my own magic power. As a result, compared to before, my perception towards magic power became stronger, and I also could control my magic power better than ever. Indeed, there is no visible change in my status. Or maybe you could say there is one, which is a title that has evolved. Even so, I felt that I had definitely grown.

"I want to dive into the dungeons soon."

That makes me want to test my current ability as soon as possible. And of course, I want to become stronger, as that feeling also has become stronger.

Then, the day the treatment finished, I coincidentally got the opportunity to do that–

◇◆◇

"—–!"

"Fufu, you're too naive."

In a training ground in Classion, Nanami-san and I were having a mock battle. This is, in fact, a part of the treatment, which is to familiarize myself with my magic power.

Both of us are fighting with our bare hands, and Nanami-san adjusted her status to suit mine. Hence, our condition should be exactly the same, but for some reason I am on the losing side. As expected of a veteran adventurer, it is quite difficult for me to hit her.

"Un, let's stop it here."

Just like that, the final mock battle has ended.

Thanks to Nanami-san, my physical condition has returned much earlier than we had expected. With this, I finally can dive into the dungeons again– I can become stronger again!

Looking at me, who was overjoyed inwardly, Nanami-san giggled.

"I'm glad you are that energetic. For the time being, the treatment has been completed."

"Yes. Thank you very much for treating me, Nanami-san."

"Raise your head. Besides, it's a direct request from Claire-kun after all. I owe her a lot. Thus, there is no way I wouldn't accept it."

"You owe her…?"

Claire and Nanami-san are both S-rank adventurers with levels over 100,000. And according to what I've heard before, Nanami-san became an S-rank first before Claire. Despite that, Nanami-san owes Claire a lot, huh. Once again, it made me wonder what kind of relationship they had before.

However, I couldn't ask that. Because–

"Hiss, this is!"

"An earthquake? No, this is different. This tremble is…"

The entire building of Classion slightly trembled. And I actually have an idea what this earthquake is. As follows, after looking at each other, Nanami-san and I opened our mouths at the same time.

""Dungeon Collapse.""

Simultaneously, a man entered the training room we're in.

"Guild Master, there is an urgent matter."

"I know, Ukyou. A dungeon collapse, right?"

"Yes. But the problem is the place…"

"Fumu, I can only think of one place among the surrounding dungeons where I don't want a dungeon collapse to happen."

"It is likely just as you expected, Guild Master. It seems it occurred in the A-rank dungeon in the south, 【Meijuu Dungeon】. And the association has requested us for a rescue operation urgently…."

"Understood, let's head there immediately. I'm glad I'm off duty today. I want you to wait here and instruct various places instead of me."

"Understood."

After such a brief exchange, Nanami-san tried to leave the training room, until I said.

"I will go too."

"… Alright. Well then, let's go together."

Thus, we head to the place where the dungeon collapse occurred, 【Meijuu Dungeon】.
