Nahida and Rimuru left Tempest again so that Nahida could continue to raise his level. Like before, Rimuru captured some monsters, and Nahida used a sword to kill them.

Nahida was getting used to it quickly. It felt good to gain experience and level up. With his Status now higher, Nahida felt a big difference.

Nahida's strength had reached 80, and he felt much better now. He could swing his sword more easily. His agility had also increased frighteningly.

Nahida's movement speed had gone up a lot.

He didn't want to chase any monsters, so he tested his speed and body control by running between the forest trees while Rimuru searched for more monsters for Nahida to kill.

VUOSH~~

VUOSH~~

With quick zigzag movements, he could move his body perfectly.

"This is great. It feels great to run at this speed and control my body well." Despite working out and having a lot of muscle, Nahida was bad in activities that relied on his leg movement.

"Also, I don't feel tired even after running for so long. It's probably because my endurance has increased a bit. What will happen when I reach level 100?"

If Nahida ever reached level 100, his Status would rise enough for him to compare to a monster. Or that's what he believed.

"Nahida, over here." Rimuru, who appeared flying, threw a few wolves toward Nahida. Three of them in total.

"Oops." With his sharp gaze, Nahida swung his sword hard and fast, cutting the three wolves' bodies in half easily. It was a grotesque and not-pretty scene. The bodies of the wolves fell at his feet, and Nahida sighed.

"I already told you not to throw the wolves like that!" Nahida shouted at Rimuru.

"Sorry, I just wanted to play around a bit. So, what conclusion have you come to with your training? Have you improved much?"

"Were you watching?"

"Watching you running between the trees with a serious look on your face like your life depended on it was funny."

"Idiot. Well, it's improved enough. My speed has doubled, and I can control my body well now. Also, my strength is way above average now." Nahida approached one of the trees and punched it.

Because of his high endurance, besides having a lot of stamina, Nahida also had high resistance against injuries. His hand was unharmed by his punch. Unlike his hand, the tree was broken.

"I see. Did you manage to climb a few more levels?"

"I went up two levels; I'm at level 12 now. But I still can't sense magical power and haven't received any skills."

"Are you sure there is nothing different on your system screen? What if you ask the voice of your system for a hint or information?"

"I already tried that; it doesn't work. And my system screen is as before. Just my name, level, and my status."

"I see. I'm sure you'll get some skills soon. So, ready for another batch of monsters? This time I'll bring a large amount of them."

"Don't overdo it."

"Don't worry~~ That's no big deal."

Three days have passed since Nahida left his hotel under Nazuna's and Shirou's command. Unlike when Nahida was there, the hotel was full and quite busy.

Nazuna had to put a written notice on the counter to inform people that all the rooms were occupied. Even so, people sometimes argued with her to get a room.

"Haaa~~ This is so tiring." Nazuna sighed after getting rid of another customer. It was a man in a suit who came from an unknown world. After that, Shirou approached carrying a broom.

"What is it? Are you tired?"

"Yes, the customers keep coming."

"But it's strange, the days I stayed here with the boss, that didn't happen. Maybe you have started to attract the customers' attention?"

"Don't say that," Nazuna said with a slightly red face. "Well, I don't know either. But isn't it good that the hotel is quite busy? Look at that; we got several different kinds of money."

Yen, and coins. Money from many different animes was in the drawer.

"I already know how this hotel works, but it's still very strange." Shirou had already made a test. He asked Nazuna to open the hotel door. There it was a completely different world.

And when Shirou tried to get out, he couldn't. After that, Nazuna explained everything to him.

"It's strange, isn't it? It was a bit hard to believe." Nazuna closed the drawer and leaned her back on the chair.

"I wonder where the boss got that power. Is it some kind of magic?" Shirou asked, but Nazuna couldn't answer.

"I don't know. Oh, and have you finished cleaning the rooms?"

"One remains to be cleaned. And speaking of rooms, there was only five, but now there are eight. In addition to this strange ability, he can modify the building however he wants."

"Really?"

"That's right. When I came here to see if I could get a job, the building was different; the next day, it was the way it is now. But I didn't act like it was a big deal to avoid being inconvenient."

"Reallyyy? Unlike you, if it had happened to me, I would have asked him what happened."

"Hahaha, of course. Now I'll continue my work; call me if you need help."

"Okay, thanks."

Nazuna gave a smile, and Shirou walked upstairs.

After he went up, the bell above the door rang, and a new customer entered. It was a tall, muscular man with a rough appearance as if he were a bandit. The man had a large sword on his back.

"Sorry, but we are out of rooms. We can offer meals, though." Despite his appearance, Nazuna said this with a smile.

"Huh?" However, the man wrinkled his brow as if bothered by her words.

Nazuna, who saw the look on the man's face, began to feel a little nervous.
