"Are you saying that you're getting bored of killing the sa type of monster and want to go sowhere else to face more powerful ones? Am I right?" Sylphy asked causally while eating dinner.
"Yes, for the past two weeks, we've either been clearing dungeons of strength or hunting those slis. Now, I'm tired of seeing them regularly. I need sothing different that can give a challenge. I want to explore dangerous places that send shivers down my soul. Do you guys understand what I an?" Myne said excitedly, observing all three of his girls staring at him with a varied expression.
"But don't you have Phasmophobia? What if you encounter a ghost while exploring so ruins? Who is going to save you then?" Aisha raised her eyebrow, not understanding when Myne beca so brave.
"When did I say that I'm going to explore haunting sites? I want to beat powerful monsters, the ones we find in dungeons. I don't want to go ghost-hunting. You're thinking too much," Myne replied with a poker face, no longer hiding the fact that he was extrely scared of ghosts.
"What! Lord Husband, you're scared of ghosts? Why didn't you tell about it? Also, are there real ghosts in the world?" Sylphy asked with a shocked face.
Is this even a thing to tell about? Honey, you really need to check your head, Myne thought, his mouth twisting. He wondered whether Sylphy was really serious or just playing with him.
"As far as I know, I haven't seen any ghosts yet, but I've heard from a lot of adventurers saying that they've seen real ghosts.
I doubt their credibility since most adventurers, to hide their bad deeds, occasionally make up such random excuses, and later they admit that what they said was just a made-up story," Aisha, who had spent three years working in the guild, put forward her opinion, which clearly wasn't satisfying enough for everyone.
"Actually, ghosts really exist in our world. Most of them are harmless rarely interact with living beings and can't be seen without special power, so not many people know about it. I once saw my father killing a vengeful ghost who possessed one of my clan won. Believe , you guys don't want to see that process. It was so brutal that I can't describe it in words. Overall, ghosts are not a good thing.
Unless you have sothing that can harm their spirit body, it's better to stay as far away from them as possible. Otherwise, if you're lucky, you might not even realize how you die. And if you're unlucky, then believe , the end is not sothing you guys want to hear."
Amy, who had beco almost forgotten by everyone, spoke gently in a low voice, sending shivers down everyone's spine.
"Are you serious, Amy? Are there really ghosts? You're not joking with us, right?" Sylphy asked earnestly, a frown creasing her forehead.
"If there can be Divine Beasts, Demons, Devils, why can't there be ghosts? We all know that every living being has a soul, right? Then isn't it normal that out of millions, one soul can't go to the afterlife and left behind with us?" Amy's reasoned words caused Aisha and Sylphy, who were initially reluctant to accept the existence of ghosts, to fall into thoughtful silence.
Aisha, in particular, shot an apologetic glance at Myne, realizing she had mocked him for being afraid of imaginary ghosts.
"Forget about it; let's return to the main point. Do you guys have any idea where we can go next for hunting? We still need to earn a lot of money for our clan building," Myne clapped his hands and inquired with a smile, aiming to dispel the gloomy atmosphere lingering from Amy's shocking revelation.
"Myne, since you currently have nothing better to do, rather than looking for monsters randomly, why not travel a little bit and increase the places where we can go through your teleportation skill? Don't you need to go there once to open a portal? Now is the best ti to travel a bit and roam various places.
This way, it would also be easier for our clan to conduct full-scale activities in the future. We could dispatch our people to different places in a short amount of ti, outpacing our competitors and earning acknowledgent from our clients."
Bang! Hearing Aisha's proposal, Myne suddenly slapped the dining table and stood up from his chair in excitent, stars clearly visible in his eyes.
"Great idea, Aisha! As expected of you. I know you have hidden a lot of wonderful things in your brilliant mind. This way, not only could we go to different places for vacations, but maybe we could also find other dungeons. We could start our own transport business. Doesn't our kingdom lack aquatic creatures, like fishes and other marine specialities?
We could transport them here; there is literally no market for it. Our product will sell like crazy. Oh, and we could set prices in different categories for the rich and commoners. Such a genius I am. We can overco our financial crises in a matter of weeks with the establishnt of our business."
Myne rambled to himself with a crazed expression, making everyone exchange glances before deciding to move a bit away from him so as not affected by his sudden craziness, despite acknowledging the potential brilliance of Myne's business plan.
"But, Lord Husband, do you have any idea how far the nearest seaport town or city is? Or do you know the route to get there?" Sylphy poured cold water on Myne's excitent with two reasonable questions.
"You guys can't see my happiness, can you? Is there any need to tell this right now? Forget it; next ti I et father-in-law, I will talk about it with him. He may have a map of the kingdom near the sea. So where should I go next then? It's better if there's a dungeon, so we all could earn plenty of experience," Myne asked.
Both Aisha and Sylphy crossed their arms and started thinking in silence.
Then, Amy, who usually liked to remain silent, suddenly interrupted everyone's thoughts and asked curiously with her big watery eyes, currently she is not using her magic bracelet to hide her appearance.
"Uhmm, I have a question from a while ago... Myne can use your teleportation skill multiple tis and go anywhere you've been at least once without caring about distance?"
"Yes, what about it? Is there anything wrong with it?"
Hearing Amy's question, Myne showed a confused expression and asked with a raise of his eyebrow.
"But as a hu, how can you have so much magic energy to use space and ti-related skill which consu an astonishing amount of magic energy? My grandpa also had teleportation skills, but he rarely used it because of the high energy consumption. Even though he was a high elf and his magic energy storage could compare to that of 50 adult hu, even then, he rarely used it.
However, I've already seen you using this skill multiple tis as if it doesn't cost you anything. You literally use it like the back of your hand. I can't understand how a hu could have so much magic energy. This shouldn't be possible..."
Amy's innocent and sincere question left Myne in an awkward position. Due to his Inventory skill, which accumulated magic energy from the air every passing second, he never lacked magic energy.
Most of the ti, he subconsciously forgot about it, and people around him didn't think much about it either, as they hadn't seen his rare but powerful skill obtained from monsters before and knew nothing about it. From their point of view, the skill might not consu much magic energy.
However, today, due to his carelessness, Amy, who always observed everything carefully, noticed this and directly asked the question in front of everyone.
Damn, I forgot about Amy. Do elves also have soone with a cut-and-paste skill? Otherwise, why do they always have soone with the skills I have? And does Amy have nothing better to do than waste her ti with old people and books? Why does she have answers to everyone's questions? Now, what should I lie to them?
It's better to co up with sothing reasonable; if Amy exposes my lie, I might be in deep trouble later, Myne thought while gulping down his saliva.
"Actually, I couldn't use this skill easily at first. However, Fenrir gave a magical fruit. After eating it, my magic capacity increased significantly, and even using a heavy skill like teleportation doesn't consu much magic energy. When I asked her about it, she told not to think too much. So, after that day, I never felt the strain of using any of my skills.
Maybe that fruit was very powerful and provided with a huge amount of magic energy, like monsters?
"Hearing Myne's answer and knowing that it is related to Fenrir, everyone's doubt vanished instantly. Even Amy, who was far more curious than anyone, obediently shut her mouth."
Fenrir's na is really very useful. If anyone has doubt, just throw her na, and everyone's curiosity will disappear just like that. Maybe I should give her so gift for always helping without even knowing," Myne thought with a smile.
"If that's the case, how about going to the Dungeon of the Sky and the Dungeon of the World Tree? They are quite good dungeons and fulfil all your requirents as well. You will definitely be satisfied if you only need powerful monsters to fight," Amy spoke calmly after a mont of silence, making everyone frown.
Where did those two unfamiliar dungeons pop up from? I've never heard about them, Myne thought and looked at Aisha and Sylphy, but both of them shook their heads, indicating that neither of them knew anything about it.
"Sorry, Amy, but could you please explain those two dungeons? What kind of dungeons are they? We've never heard anything about them before," Myne asked, trying to look directly into Amy's eyes, not at her big boobies.
"Both dungeons are in the old elf territory..."
