Evening
Today was fruitful because I have 860 GCS now. As for my levels....
Csses equipped: Explorer LV 10, Vilger LV 14, Hero LV 7, Thief LV 12, Swordsman LV 19, Farmer LV 9, Merchant LV 5, herbalist LV 1.
And this shows up with BPS....
14 BPS
9 times exp gain locked required 23 BPS necessary for leveling constantly!
Party css check locked required 5 BPS!
Party css setup locked required 5 BPS!
Gate locked required 32 BPS!
Equivalent exchange locked required 14 BPS!
I have decided to take this due to mp drain for enemy HP. I think, it might be helpful in getting wizard css. As for Isabel...
Css: Berserker LV 7!
Well, it's better. Now, we are heading to the tavern.
......
Late night
Isabel POV
While I was sleeping on my bed. Yes, my bed. I know it's strange but my master hasn't use me as a sex sve yet. Even though he has a strong weapon.
He's skilled and fast. I can't keep up with his speed. It doesn't mean that I was just an observer again. I was allowed to battle. Even though it was just a single hit before master end them.
Somehow, I feel stronger. Might be due to our fast and BIG hunt. According to master, we have 860 GCS! Master is amazing but he said that he hunted double due to my experience and sense of smell.
This really makes me happy.
Kia!
Huh?! I woke up and saw master getting up too.
???" NO STAY AWAY!!!"
Something is going on here?! Wasn't it a safe tavern? I turned around and saw master with his sword, Ebony. Is he going out?! Before I asked him, he rushed past me.
Kachak!
He went out alone?! DAMN! I stood up and went out without any weapon. There, I saw him sshing CRAWLING HANDS?! They were on a girl.
Her clothes were tore away by cws. But master saved her through his sword and remarkable skills. Manager has also arrived and master sheathed his sword.
Isabel " You are amazing, master."
I ran towards him bare feet.
......
Third person POV
When Isabel came near Daisuke. Manager was asking the female with torn clothes whom Daisuke said to cover herself now that.
Manager " Tell me did you not lock your windows?"
While the woman, who was inside her room now covering herself said.
???" NO. WHY? IS IT RELATED TO THE HAUNTINGS?!"
Right now, many tenants were there.
Manager" Yes, I heard that they are linked with mist. So, in case of windows being shut, it will be safe."
???" DO YOU THINK WE CAN BELIEVE THAT?!"
That woman returned dressed.
Daisuke" I think, he's right about mist. Because upon destruction, they turned into mists. Meaning, they are summoned by the mists."
Hearing this, everyone was baffled.
Daisuke" What?"
Isabel " Master, monsters can only be summoned by a byrinth. How can mist summon them?!"
Daisuke" Actually, there are...."
???" MANAGER!! KNIGHT CORPS IS HERE WITH CAPTAIN NIB!! THE GUY, WHO INFORMED US, HAS BROUGHT THEM!!!"
Manager face became pale. Seeing this, Daisuke, who was cared by his good service even for coins, held his hand on his shoulder.
Daisuke " I am acquainted with Captain Nib. Let me talk with her."
Hearing this, manager calmed down.
Manager" Please do, sir."
Isabel, who was about to go down with him. Daisuke stopped her.
Daisuke" Isabel. Why are you bare feet? If you want to come. Please wear your shoes and came down after locking the room."
Everyone was baffled again but with a smile, Isabel went back to the room with keys.
.....
After few minutes, Isabel came out from her room wearing her shoes. She was locking the room when she heard tenants talking.
A man" Do you see that Young man? His sword skills are amazing!"
A woman" But who is he? He said that he is an acquaintance of Captain Nib."
Hotel boy" Actually, he is a noble from out of town. He came here to explore the recent formed byrinth."
Man" WHAT?!"
Isabel, who was hearing this. She ran past them with a smile.
......
Earlier
When manager and Daisuke went downstairs, they saw Captain Nib with some knights asking people. Hearing footsteps, Heather and her knights turned towards the source.
Seeing Daisuke equipped, Heather realised that situation was in control.
Heather " Good evening, Daisuke. Looks like you have already taken care of everything."
Daisuke" Good evening, Captain. Yes, I have taken care of crawling cws. They were spawned due to a tenant mistake of not closing windows."
With a serious face...
Heather" So, our hunch was right."
While she was having details of the event, Isabel came down and ran towards Daisuke. Seeing her, Heather was about to say something when..
Daisuke " Isabel. Come. "
Heather turned towards him with an inquiring look.
Daisuke " Yes, I have bought her as a party member. I was having problems."
Heather" Why a tiger kin?"
At that time, Isabel was standing by him.
Daisuke " We don't have Tiger kin where I belong to."
Her eyes widened.
Heather" I see. So, you want to see her skills."
Daisuke" Yes but let's talk about the mist. "
Heather " What about it?"
Daisuke" Like it's source and locations of spawning of crawling cws."
Heather" First, mist appeared everywhere in the town. Second, cws only appeared in the houses and such."
Daisuke pondered for a while then he realised something.
Daisuke " Captain, is mist has thickness in some areas of Vibe?"
Heather" Can you evaluate?"
She was confused.
Daisuke" I meant if some areas has more mist than that can be source of it."
Everyone was shocked.
Isabel" Master, you are saying that someone is behind the mist?"
Nodding...
Daisuke" I heard of some magic items in my homend which could affect area like starting hail. So, there could be something like that."
With a serious look...
Heather" We have never seen or heard anything like that before. But I will gather information."
Knight" But it's almost dawn. We have to check tonight. Mist will be low during day."
Daisuke" Can I come along? I might find something."
With a smile...
Heather " Sure. Your help will be appreciated."
After that knights went out.
.......
Noon
Daisuke POV
We are hunting amazingly today too. While moving, we reached a door.
Daisuke " Boss room?"
Isabel " Yes! I think, master is strong enough to go further and I felt strong too."
Daisuke" Because you have levelled up."
But it's been a while that I am hunting. So, let's check out.
Daisuke " Okay. But be careful."
I held my Ebony and we moved forward.
Zzzzz!
Door slides open and it's empty?
Boof!
Huh? A smoke cloud come and go leaving a HYENA?! Isabel gripped her axe tightly.
Roar!
It came towards us aggressively. I used bullet time and moved forward.
Ssh!
Poof!
Huh? I turned around and there was a patch of skin. I turned towards Isabel, who was astonished.
Daisuke " Looks like I went too hard."
Shaking her head...
Isabel" No. It's because master is strong. It took 5 strikes from my old party single Swordsman to kill it."
Interesting.
Daisuke" Let's call it a day."
I said getting the skin.
Isabel " Then, let's go to second floor. Through this, you can use dungeon walk there."
A practical approach.
Daisuke" Sure."
Moving through the entrance like door, we reached a simir corridor. I turned around and looked at the door.
Daisuke " Will it work same as entrance door in your continent?"
I am using this reference to ask common sense. Realising...
Isabel " Yes."
Nodding, I went out and she followed. It was almost afternoon. Good.
.......

Nodding.
Daisuke " Yes. Let's go."
......
Evening
Bored Egg tavern
Isabel POV
After our dinner, we returned to our room. There master shut our windows and turned towards me.
Daisuke " Isabel. There are somethings, only my family can do. Like, using skills without chanting."
Whoosh!
Suddenly, 12 item boxes appeared around him. 12!
Isabel " Wasn't master a LV 8 explorer?"
Master turned towards me.
Daisuke" Isabel. No matter which css, my family is known for being strongest in each. We grow stronger faster than others."
My eyes widened. That's amazing.
Daisuke" Please keep it a secret."
I nodded my head.
Swoosh!
Item boxes vanished. Master was fully equipped.
Daisuke " Isabel. I am going with Captain Nib. I will be te. So, closed the door."
Huh?
Isabel" Master. I want to come with you. Let me prove myself."
Shaking his head.
Daisuke" You have already in the byrinth and I need you there. As for this matter, it's something else. Let me handle it. It can be political."
My ears dropped in resignation. I know that what happened in such matters and I am a sve.
Pat!
Huh? Master patted my head with his right hand with care.
Daisuke " I don't want you to involve in some messy business. So, wait here."
He said with a calming but handsome smile. I didn't know that I will find a human this attractive. After that master left.
