When the night arrived, Tiona wanted to sleep with Tsukasa by entering his room secretly. After all, she had been sleeping in his room when he was gone.

As for being locked?

What’s the point of the lock in front of the Level 5 adventurer?

However, Tsukasa threw Tiona out of his room before visiting Riveria’s room.

The two had already missed each other and stayed together for the night.

“Kiss me! Kiss me!” Riveria kept begging and didn’t even let him go.

Watching his white liquid keep dripping out from her secret place, Tsukasa was afraid that Riveria might get pregnant if this continued.

The two lay together in silence when they were done, enjoying each other’s warmth.

“I miss you.” Riveria was so sticky that she didn’t want to move away from him.

“I miss you too.”

Tsukasa knew that he might sound lying. After all, he didn’t come to visit Riveria right after he returned. Instead, he played around with other women. However, even so, it was better to shut his mouth about this matter.

“Say, Riveria, can I ask you something?” Tsukasa asked.

“What’s wrong?” Riveria asked.

The expedition would be held shortly, so his time was quite limited, but even so, there was something that he had to do.

“Do you know where I can buy a grimoire?” Tsukasa asked.

“Grimoire?” Riveria was dumbfounded since she didn’t expect to hear such a word from Tsukasa. After all, he had always been known for his swordsmanship, and from what she remembered, he had never used magic, so it surprised her that he showed interest in magic. “You want to use magic?”

“As an adventure, I don’t think anyone wants to use magic, right?” Tsukasa rolled his eyes.

“…”

Riveria was in silence, and she knew that he was right.

Everyone wanted to use magic, but not everyone could use magic.

The majority of people couldn’t use it and could only work harder.

On the other hand, even if some people had a chance to use magic, they lacked an opportunity to learn it.

Riveria knew that Tsukasa had three slots of magic. In other words, he could master three magics. “Did you awaken your magic?”

“Yeah.” Tsukasa nodded. “I awaken my magic, so I thought I might as well awaken the rest.” There were two slots of magic that he hadn’t awoken, so it was better for him to buy two Groimoires directly since he didn’t lack money.

Hearing his plan, Riveria was speechless, but she also knew that he didn’t lack money, so she decided to help. “But grimoire is a rare item. It might be hard to get even one.”

“So it’s impossible?” Tsukasa was unwilling.

“You don’t need to worry. I know a place that sells one.” Riveria rubbed his head gently.

“…..”

Tsukasa was in a daze and felt slightly insulted, but he must admit it felt comfortable. He must admit that the older woman was really gentle. He then hugged her back and said, “Let’s sleep. Also, can you accompany me tomorrow?”

“Sure.” Riveria nodded and searched for the most comfortable position before she looked up and said, “Tsukasa.”

“Hmm?”

“Can you give me a good night kiss?”

“…”

Tsukasa looked at Riveria and thought that this woman was really the cutest.

They kissed each other, but in the end, they did it again.

—

On the next day, Tsukasa decided to buy the grimoire with Riveria. However, when the two went out, many people also came to follow them.

Ais was one thing since she was pampered by Riveria.

However, Lefiya, Tiona, and Tione also joined.

While Tsukasa wasn’t surprised by either Tiona or Lefiya, he felt confused about why Tione decided to join.

“What’s with that expression?” Tione asked with a frown.

“No, it’s okay.” Tsukasa didn’t bother to ask.

Tione only snorted, but she didn’t say much. After all, she must admit her pride was still damaged when she found out Tsukasa had become a Level 6. She had been in Level 5 for many years, so it frustrated her when she discovered that someone could become Level 6 so fast. However, she couldn’t deny that she became curious about “him.”

After all, it was the nature of the Amazoness to search for the strongest.

Still, even though that was the fact, Tione was still in love with Finn. She loved him. She loved him so much, but this and that matter was different after all.

Anyway, the total number of girls around him would increase sooner or later. Instead of thinking about this matter, it was better since he had decided to buy something so expensive, like a grimoire.

With more people, his protection would be even better.

Still, Tsukasa didn’t really need protection, though.

Anyway, the matter that he had decided to buy a grimoire was known to the guild, and Finn didn’t hesitate to let Tsukasa go out to buy it with many people. After all, the stronger Tsukasa was, the better it was for the expedition.

They went to the magic shop where Riveria often maintained her staff.

Witch’s Secret House.

The location shop was near the location of the Dian Cect Familia, where Airmid’s Familia stayed.

Still, unlike the Dian Cect Familia, which was located on the main street and in a clean area, the shop was located in a hard-to-seek place and a dilapidated house.

“…Is this the place?” Tsukasa was in doubt.

“This is how the witch is. They don’t like crowded places. Come on.” Riveria somehow could tell what Tsukasa thought before she pushed the door. “Lenoa, I’m here.”

Unlike the cute name, the owner of this store was like the scary witch in the horror book.

“…….”

Tsukasa felt disappointed since he thought the witch would be quite beautiful.

However, who would have thought he would see a real witch?

One with a long nose, wrinkled skin, black clothes, and an herb-like smell.

Lenoa, the witch, seemed to read the book while stirring some kind of liquid in the cauldron. Still, she was slightly surprised when she saw Riveria. “Riveria? What’s wrong? Your staff is ready, right?”

Riveria often maintained her magic staff in this store, and there had never been a problem. However, she suddenly came, which made Lenoa think that there was some kind of problem.

“No, it’s not me but Tsukasa who wants to buy something from you,” Riveria said.

“Tsukasa?” Lenoa was dumbfounded before she looked at the man who covered his face in a facemask and a hoodie, which made it hard to see his appearance. Still, when he pulled his hoodie, his eyes were like a magnet that attracted her.

“Cough! Cough!” Riveria coughed loudly.

“Haha…” Lenoa awoke while laughing. “I can see why he’s being called the most handsome man in the world and heaven. So what’s wrong? What do I need to do for you?” She wondered what Tsukasa, the strongest swordsman in the Orario, was going to ask her. After all, he was a swordsman and not a magician, right?

“Let me buy the grimoire.”

His words were simple, but they set a raging wave in Lenoa’s heart. “…What?”

“Let me buy the grimoire,” Tsukasa said while looking at the thick book, which had a seal and many security items. He felt instead of buying, wasn’t it better for him to just steal it?

“Can you?”
