Chapter 9 (2/2)

You can hear voices from everywhere admiring the beauty of Kaede.

All the men on the street turn to look at her, and even the women look at her with envy.

Kaede may have a collar around her neck, a sign of slavery, but even that has become a tool to enhance her beauty.

If they had to choose the most beautiful woman in this country, It would be her.

”Today I will earn a lot of money for my master!”

”No, you don't have to worry about making money. We have enough money from killing the dragon, so let's prioritize your leveling. That's why I bought lots of food and water.”

”Master...”

Kaede's eyes welled with tears of joy.

Yesterday I made it so that she couldn't go up as much as she wanted to, so today I'm giving her more freedom.

The stronger she is, the easier it will be for me.

I will let her level up as much as she wants.

When you reach the fourth floor, the difficulty level rises a little.

The monsters that appear become much stronger.

But compared to the adult Kaede, they were just weaklings.

”Wind Gust!”

The gust of wind generated by the two iron fans makes the enemies fly.

Quickly, she finishes them off with her freezing magic.

Her current level is 50.

The appropriate level for the fourth floor is 15, so this is just a walk in the park.

I have so much free time that I can't help but yawn.

”Are you tired?”

“Oh no, I was so busy this morning that I didn't go to bed until my usual time. I'm a little sleepy. ”

”You can use my lap as a pillow, Master, so please rest!”

I used my magic to disappear the remains of the skeletons I had just defeated. I laid down a blanket, Kaede sat on top of it, then indicated that I could rest my head on her lap.

It's hard to say no to her when she's very happy.

”I will just lie down for a bit.”

”Okay.”

I lie down, and place my head on her lap.

The sweet aroma and the soft touch of her skin that I felt on my head, made my eyes close completely.

I think I'm going to sleep better than usual...

An explosion rumbled through the place.

It suddenly woke me up.

How long was I asleep?

”Master, I hope you slept well.”

”Thank you, yes, I did... Huh?”

There were numerous defeated skeletons around us.

I don't know the total number, but it can't be more than 20.

I looked at Kaede, and she was smiling happily.

”What was that?”

”Those skeletons were about to attack us, so to save the master, I took care of them.

”I see.”

She stands up and gently cleans my body with her tail.

It felt nice and fluffy coming in contact with my body.

I wonder, what is this strange feeling?

When I slept on her legs, it was as if my heart had been healed from everything

Maybe she has some special power too?

Come to think of it, I haven't seen her stats properly.

”Huh? You want to see my stats?”

”If you don't want me to see it, that's fine. I'm just curious.”

”I'm your property, master. I'll be happy to show you.”

Kaede made the stats screen appear and turned it towards me.

Skills

Probably due to an ability called [Healing wave].

But it is a non-standard skill.

I don't see anything strange, although some are rare.

In particular, this [increased power] is a rare ability that once belonged to a very famous mage who made it into the history of mankind.

This girl will be someone important.

”Can you see the abilities of others in the stats?”

”It depends on the level. I haven't seen any unusual skills yet.”

Hmm, so the saving skill is not yet identified.

I was hoping to find out.

Well, I have a pretty good idea of what works, so maybe I shouldn't bother investigating it.

”Do you want to keep moving forward?”

”If my master wishes, I would like to.”

”We still have enough supplies. We can move forward.”

We are heading to the fifth floor.
