As the silent hand touched a certain spot on the hot spring, the hot spring quickly contracted and transformed back into a gem, lying quietly in the silent hand.

Throwing the portable hot spring into the spatial ring, Silent sat down on the spot, casually picked up a few stones, and arranged them together. Silent then took out a pitch-black circle from the spatial ring.

Silent placed the circle on the stones. It was unclear what Silent did to the circle, but as soon as Silent finished, a fire suddenly 'whoosh' ignited from the circle.

Ignoring all of this, Silent took out several bottles and jars from the spatial ring and placed them aside. Then, Silent took out some meat and an iron skewer, skewered the meat, and began to roast it over the fire.

From time to time, Silent picked up the bottles and jars and sprinkled them on the meat. While roasting the meat in an orderly manner, Silent opened the 'Status' option in the system.

Character: Silent

Abilities: 'Sword Mastery', 'Culinary Mastery', 'Perfect Memory', 'Dance of Heaven's Chaos'

Equipment: Kusanagi Sword (D Rank)

Summoned Character: Misaka Mikoto

Equipment Points: 51,000

Item Points: 8,300,000

Ability Points: 81,000

Summon Points: 11,000

Level: 45

When Silent saw his level, he was momentarily stunned but then felt relieved.

Seeing himself level up by 15 levels in a rush, Silent was naturally a bit dazed. However, upon further reflection, it wasn't strange at all. The terrifying horde of monsters had been thoroughly defeated by their trio. The sheer number of monsters, including ten 40-level and hundreds of 30-level and above, made it reasonable to level up to this extent.

Moreover, the 20-level and above monsters were in abundance. This could be seen from the 8,300,000 item points remaining after exchanging the portable hot spring, quick healing potion, and clothes.

Although 20-level monsters didn't provide much experience to Silent, and some were killed by Daisy, the sheer number was still overwhelming. Daisy was only level 18, so how many could she have killed? The sheer quantity made up for it.

Furthermore, upon careful consideration, with the cheat of leveling up through battles, after killing so many monsters, it was embarrassing to have only advanced one rank in the Spalier world.

As for Misaka Mikoto's status below Silent's, there were few changes, but...

Character: Misaka Mikoto

Ability: Electromaster (Lv5)

Strength: C

Stamina: C

Agility: B

Spirit: A

Equipment: None

Level: 69

Compared to her previous status, there was no significant change except for a level up. However, this level up was not easy.

After all, Misaka couldn't compare to Silent. In the horde of monsters, there were many that were higher level than Silent, who was only level 30 at the time. The experience from these monsters was like leveling up beyond one's current level, which is why Silent gained so many levels.

However, there were no monsters higher level than Misaka. The highest was level 40, which was far below Misaka's level. The experience Misaka gained was minimal, but the sheer number of monsters still contributed to a level up, which was quite difficult.

Closing the system, Silent began to ponder.

Now that he was level 45, equivalent to a mid-level fifth-rank warrior, it was time to exchange for new equipment and abilities...

"Hmm~~~" A gentle sound woke Silent from his thoughts. Turning his head, Silent couldn't help but smile.

Mikoto's eyelids trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes, covering her mouth with her hand and yawning. She finally woke up, and the first thing she saw was Silent roasting some unknown meat by a fire that had somehow appeared, smiling at her.

"Are you awake?" Silent waved his free hand at Mikoto, while the other hand continued to turn the iron skewer, seemingly unaffected by the distraction.

Mikoto was startled and quickly got up, looking around. When she saw that the ground was no longer covered with corpses, she breathed a sigh of relief. If she had woken up next to corpses, even if they weren't human, she would have been unable to bear it. Every time she thought of the bloody scene...

Mikoto shook her head. Although she had improved, she still couldn't fully accept it...

Silent, who had been watching Mikoto's reaction from start to finish, sighed. He knew that Mikoto hadn't fully accepted the reality of the blood on her hands, even though she was prepared...

Silent's eyes twinkled, and he suddenly laughed, for no apparent reason.

Hearing Silent's strange laugh, Mikoto frowned. For some reason, she suddenly felt very uncomfortable, and this emotion overshadowed all others.

"Why are you laughing so unpleasantly?" Mikoto glared at Silent.

"Nothing..." Silent stopped laughing, but his smile remained, making Mikoto even more uncomfortable.

"Buzz, buzz..." An electric sound began, indicating that the owner was very upset, and the consequences would be severe.

Silent's expression stiffened as he glanced at the electricity on Mikoto's body. Finally, he steeled himself, looking directly at Mikoto, his expression changing to one of deep reflection.

Silent's lecherous expression finally made Mikoto realize something was wrong. She looked at herself and her eyes widened in shock, her mouth opened, and she stopped emitting electricity.

A simple white short-sleeved shirt and a plain gray skirt, a very ordinary and simple outfit, but this outfit made Mikoto look as if she had seen a ghost.

My clothes have been changed...

Mikoto now understood what had happened, but she hadn't changed them herself, and Daisy was still asleep. So, there was only one answer!

"W-Why..." Mikoto's face was blank as she turned to Silent, her mouth opening and closing, but she was just unwilling to face the reality.

Seeing the effect he wanted, Silent smiled even more broadly. "Why what?"

Mikoto's hands slowly pressed against her body, and she said in a daze, "M-my... clothes..."

Silent extended his hand, pointing to his face, and said, "Of course, they were covered in blood, so they had to be changed!"

"Buzz!" The arcs of electricity began to jump, showing Mikoto's inner turmoil. She forced a smile and asked, "Then, who changed my clothes? Did Daisy change them when she woke up earlier?"

Mikoto's hopeful gaze made Silent feel immense pressure. He was already regretting using this method to distract her.

Silent stopped smiling, took a deep breath, and said confidently, "Of course not. In this world, only I am so considerate, so you should be grateful to me!"

Mikoto's face grew hotter, and her cheeks turned red. Her face temperature rose rapidly, and finally, with a 'pop', a puff of smoke rose from her head.

Her mind went blank, and her head began to shake uncontrollably.

This reaction is too exaggerated...

Silent's lips twitched as he watched Mikoto, whose eyes had turned into circles, her face flushed red, and her head shaking. He thought, 'So innocent...'

While Silent was gloating, Mikoto suddenly stopped, lowered her head, and her expression turned dark.

"Buzz, buzz!" Blue light suddenly surged, and arcs of electricity flickered wildly on Mikoto's body. With a broken smile, Mikoto looked at Silent.

A chill ran down Silent's spine, making him shiver. Watching Mikoto, who looked like a thunder god, slowly stand up, a large drop of cold sweat rolled down Silent's forehead.

Showing a smile uglier than a cry, Silent swallowed. "C-Calm down... Mikoto, calm down!"

A devilish voice came from Mikoto's mouth. "Do you have any last wishes? I might not remember, but if I happen to remember one day, I'll consider fulfilling them!"

"Ha... ha..." Silent laughed dryly at Mikoto. "Don't joke around, Mikoto. Look, I did it for your own good, right? A girl should be clean, it's no big deal..."

"No big deal!" Mikoto's voice, which was unusually low, rose slightly, but it only made Silent more desperate.

"So, for you, this is just 'no big deal.' If that's the case..." Mikoto's face turned red as she glared at Silent and shouted, "I don't need a last word, just give me..."

"Mikoto! If I die, you'll die too!" Silent let out a final cry.

"Go to hell!!!"

"Buzz, buzz!"

"Ahhh!!!"

When Daisy woke up, she was startled by the惨叫声. Thinking it was a monster attack, she jumped up, materializing a white cherry blossom in her hand, and looked around cautiously. When she saw the situation clearly, her cautious expression froze.

Mikoto's face was bright red, and smoke occasionally rose from her head. She had her arms crossed, staring fiercely at a mess on the ground.

On the ground, Silent lay there, his face and body black, smoke still rising from his mouth.

"What's going on here!" Daisy was shocked, completely at a loss.

Mikoto, seeing Daisy's shocked expression, tears welled up in her eyes, and she lowered her head.

How could she explain this...

Scratching her head in confusion, Daisy looked at Mikoto, whose face was red and smoking, and who seemed afraid to show herself. She felt something was off, but couldn't pinpoint what.

Rolling her eyes in exasperation, Daisy walked towards the two. However, as soon as she took a step, she froze.

Why did she feel a cool sensation down there?...

Reaching down, Daisy was stunned. She could feel that the shape of her undergarments had changed. The edge that used to reach her thighs was now slanted, and quite severely.

Her safety shorts were gone...

Considering Mikoto's behavior, Silent's condition, her own fresh body, wet hair, and the clothes that matched Mikoto's, a not-so-good idea formed in her mind...

A blush crept up Daisy's face as she looked at Mikoto and said very softly, "Mikoto, could it be that our clothes and the blood on our bodies were...?"

Hearing Daisy's voice, Mikoto didn't lower her hands but spread her fingers, revealing watery eyes. She glanced at Silent on the ground and nodded, tears welling up.

After Mikoto nodded, Daisy's face turned even redder than her hair, and her anger flared. She strode over to Silent and slapped him hard!

"Slap!"

"Ahh!"
