chapter 27

The reason why the knights made me register as an adventurer was to get a recovery potion as a reward for defeating the monsters.

At first, the knight used it for me, but I gave it back to him, and now I use the one I got myself.

If you defeat the monsters efficiently, you can hoard the healing potions. You can put them all in the item box you got from the guild.

Then nearly two weeks passed.

I almost laughed.

Slowly, though, my level is increasing. It’s worth it to keep beating monsters from morning to evening.

If I grow this much, I might be able to help everyone a little bit.

I think I’m getting stronger.

Then there was a knock on the door.

“Hiyori”

“Go on.”

I open the door and let Hiyori into the room.

Hiyori visits me once every few days to tell me how our classmates are doing.

Instead, I tell you what I’m doing. Although, I only have slimes and goblins to defeat.

“We’ve grown up a lot, too. Look at us.”

Hiyori brings a chair next to me.

She sat down next to me and opened her status on the spot.

Hiyori

“Whoa!”

“Oh, Tsumugi-kun, are you all right?”

I coughed in surprise.

What, what, what is this …… what is this?

“Soooo awesome……”

“Thanks to the [Bonds-list], the status of everyone in the class is like that. Each of us may be weak individually, but it’s amazing how we all pull together.”

Awesome. Really great.

I’m so jealous.

I feel like an idiot for being happy that my status was in the triple digits. This is the power of this world.

You have to bond with someone to be strong.

From there I’m already at disadvantage.

“So, I’m going to the dungeon tomorrow.”

“The dungeon?”

“Apparently it’s a den of naturally occurring monsters deep in the forest. I haven’t been there to defeat them lately, so I heard there’s a lot of monsters there.”

“There is such a place.”

“Huh? Didn’t you hear?”

Hiyori tilts her head dubiously.

“The leader of the group said he might take Tsumugi-kun with him on an expedition of about three to five days starting tomorrow…..”

“…… Maybe I can’t go.”

I didn’t receive that kind of information. Perhaps the knights didn’t tell me that on purpose.

Maybe it’s just harassment. Maybe it’s a place that my status doesn’t allow me to be.

“Hiyori and the rest will be much stronger. I’ll do my best.”

“Tsumugi-kun……”

I only forced a smile on my face as Hiyori gave me a worried look.
