Chapter 133 – I want to reach Rivira.
Elma looked at the paper with the recipe, unable to believe what she saw. She glanced at
several tis, searching for answers. I'm sure she's thinking, "Where did you steal this recipe from?"
But how could I steal sothing that didn't even exist?
"What is it? Speechless?"
"Of course I am! How can I think this is normal? I've never seen paper made with these ingredients before. Are you sure I can make sothing like this?"
"Well… To be honest, I haven't tested it yet, but the recipe is absolutely genuine. Why don't you give it a try? You could enhance the quality of your books this way."
"Of course, I'll test it! If it works, I'll be rich!"
"Aren't you already rich?"
"Not like you." Elma smiled. "But seriously, who are you? How can you be so talented and still have a recipe like this? Are you sure you're human and not a god?"
"If I were a god, Hestia would know, wouldn't she?"
"What? ? Oh, right." Hestia started laughing. "Luan is really special, but he's definitely not a god. I'm sure of it!"
"It was just a joke, of course he's not a god." Elma smiled bitterly. "But it's surprising how amazing you are. Thank you again, Luan, for saving my store and my life."
"Your life?"
"Of course! This store is my life. You basically revived it, gave
a reason to live again. I'm so grateful for that."
"You're exaggerating."
"No, it's the truth! I owe you so much!" Elma stepped closer and grabbed my hands. "I'll be grateful to you for the rest of my life. No matter what happens, you can count on
for anything! I'll do whatever it takes to help you!" Tears began to well up in her eyes.
I started feeling a little uncomfortable, but I didn't pull away. I held Elma's hands firmly and smiled at her.
"You've also done a lot for , Elma. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to publish my book so easily. Let's keep working together!"
"Yes!"
I looked over at Lili and Hestia, and they both seed quite happy, watching our interaction.
After this rather emotional conversation, we decided to head ho.
Elma kept saying how grateful she was to
the entire ti. She repeated it so much that I had to ask her to stop.
She only stopped when we parted ways.

When I arrived at the mansion, I took another bath with Lili and put on clean clothes. After all this ti, I think it's ti to return to the dungeon. Last ti, I didn't explore that much.
But even without much exploration, I managed to kill that cursed dragon.
It was fun fighting it. Will I co across another one? They're rare monsters, so...
And now that it's ti to return to the dungeon, it's the perfect mont to test the [Inventory] skill. I should've tested it earlier by storing the manuscript, but I preferred not to reveal this ability in front of Lili and Hestia just yet.
I was alone in the room and grabbed my dagger.
"It's a bit damaged. I thought it had more durability. And the poison thing didn't affect the monsters on the 11th and 12th floors. What trash. I need a new weapon."
I placed the dagger in my inventory. As soon as I did, it simply vanished from my hand.
I expected sothing like a black hole to appear and swallow the dagger. Like in anis where similar skills exist.
But here it was different. It just disappeared.
"Inventory."
And there it was.
A system window with several "slots" appeared. I had no patience to count them all, but there were probably more than 50. The dagger was in the first slot. I only had to think about it, and it appeared again.
It floated in the air until I grabbed it.
It's convenient.
"I wonder how I'll store water. I'll probably need bottles, right?"
I'm also curious about food. This type of skill usually freezes ti inside the inventory so the food doesn't spoil. If this ability works the sa way, that would be perfect!
I could stockpile a lot of food here and never worry about it.
Knock, knock, knock~~
Then, soone knocked on the door. I put the dagger back in the inventory.
"Who is it?"
"It's . Have you finished what you were doing?" It was Lili.
"Oh, yeah, co in."
Lili entered the room and walked over to . She gave
a light kiss on the lips.
"I'm heading out now. I'll be back tonight, okay? You don't mind, do you?"
"You can co whenever you want." I kissed Lili's lips. "Anyway, I'll only be here at night. I'm heading to the dungeon now and will spend a few hours there. I can't wait to reach Rivira."
"You're already reaching Rivira? Alone?!" Lili exclaid, surprised. "How is that possible? I knew you were strong, but… Isn't that too much?"
"I've beco even stronger than before, Lili."
"I want to go with you! I want to see you fight!"
"I don't think that's a good idea. I'm going really deep this ti."
"..." Lili stared at
sadly but soon brightened up. "I trust you! I'm sure you'll be able to protect !"
"That's not the problem..."
I want to move quickly, so she'd only slow
down. If I'm with her, I won't be able to teleport or run through the floors. I need to explain that to her so she'll give up.
After explaining everything to her, Lili finally gave up on coming with .
"Alright, but next ti, I'm going with you!"
"Okay, next ti I'll take you to Rivira."
"I'm looking forward to it!"
Then, I set off for the dungeon.
But I t soone I wasn't expecting to see on the way.
