World's Fastest Level up!

T/N: Sorry I just update now, I was quite busy last week. Anyway, I have a bit of information for you guys. And that is, in 2 more chapters, we are going to catch up with the author and I might post another novel soon (just a heads-up).

Right before returning to the surface, I suddenly recalled something. It is about how if I return to the surface just like this, I will be seen by people around the dungeon. Unlike before, when I rushed into the dungeon while numerous monsters were emerging, this will definitely attract a lot of attention. If possible, I don't want people to know that I have defeated the last boss of an A-rank dungeon alone.

In that case, what should I do? Should I use [Stealth] to hide myself and then leave the place as soon as I return? But if I do that, it would be troublesome if people began to wonder why no one returned to the surface even though the dungeon had disappeared…

While I was thinking about that, the transfer magic was activated, returning me to the surface. Then, I looked around and realized that it seemed I was worrying over nothing.

"This is…"

Because Nanami-san is the only one there, and there was no one else besides her.

In front of me, who was wondering about the scene, Nanami-san said,

"Welcome back, Amane-kun. You defeated it faster than what I had imagined."

"Is that so?"

"Aa. Initially, I thought it would take you an hour or two at the earliest…but in actuality, it's only been less than 20 minutes since you entered."

I see. Since Nanami-san didn't know about [Transfer Within Dungeon], she must have thought that I advanced through the dungeons through normal means. If that's the case, it is natural for her to expect it would take several hours for me to defeat the last boss.

At any rate, here, I asked something that I had been curious about to her.

"More importantly, what's happening? It seems that there is no one other than Nanami-san here…"

"I had them evacuated, telling them there might be casualties if the last boss suddenly came out. Needless to say, I also made a firm barrier after that."

Just as she said, if I look at it again, there seems to be a huge barrier set up covering the whole area. Thanks to that, no one saw me returning from the dungeon. For that, I thanked her in my heart.

"Well then, although this is sudden, can I ask you about what happened inside?"

"Yes."

Although she said what happened inside, most of it was just about the last boss, though. As follows, I told her about what happened in the last 20 minutes. About how a Cerberus, which was the evolved version of Orthrus, was waiting in the boss room. About how the recommended level of subjugation had reached 100,000 just as Nanami-san expected. And about how I did my best to subjugate it.

Nanami-san, who listened to me until the end, then put her hand on her chin, thinking about something.

"Fumu, I see. Although I did assume that, I never thought it was really strengthened to level 100,000. And you even subjugated that alone…. huh. Honestly, from your magic power that I sensed during the treatment, I didn't think it was possible but, including that, you really are like her."

"Nanami-san? Did you say something?"

"No, it’s nothing."

I asked her because she seems to be muttering about something, but Nanami-san shook her head. And then,

"My bad, Amane-kun. I'm sure you are tired, but can I have some of your time? There is something I wanted to talk to you about"

Those were the words she said.
