- (Dancing Swordsman emote)
- (Dancing Alchemist emote)
- (Dancing Vampire emote)
- ? What is that
- Even corpses are dancing
- Cut down the vamp-thot!!!
- (I’ll kill you... Swordsman emote)
"!"
I realized something important.
Oh, right, the trial. There really wasn’t any time to delay now.
If something happened to the soldiers or Lady Ravina while I was wasting time like this, it would be a huge problem.
I stopped dancing and began scampering off.
- Huh, is the club over
- The vibe was nice tho
- Guys, the emote artisan cooked up another emote, hurry up and buy it
- ? Oh
- (Running Swordsman emote)
- (Running Mage emote)
And as I ran, I realized something again.
That if I just ran around blindly like this, the chances of finding Lady Ravina were far too low.
It couldn’t be helped. Even if only to secure my field of vision, I had no choice but to use my power once.
After reinforcing my entire body with aura, I leaped high into the sky.
Then I gathered all my mana and formed a vortex.
And with the mana that filled back up again, I expanded the vortex. Expanded it again. Expanded...
Since the phenomenon known as mana depletion could not exist for me, who possessed a maid’s dignity, turning a minor spell into a grand spell was an easy task.
- Why is she suddenly using grand magic again
- Looks like she’s trying to solve the mechanic
- Who the fuck solves a mechanic like this
- For now, we know the vampires are fucked
- (Running Vampire emote)
- Even the vamp-thots run like total scrubs lolololol
My target was the violet fog obstructing my vision.
Even if it returned after I pushed it away once, it would be enough if I could secure visibility for even a moment.
After completing a storm that could safely be called grand magic, I swept away all the fog in the canyon.
- Uh
- D-damn
- Lady Yuyeon, we’re on the same side, right...?
"!"
For one moment, my field of vision opened wide.
Looking down at the full view of the canyon from up high, I doubted my own eyes.
‘Lady Ravina... the soldiers... aren’t here...?’
Hing-ing-ing. Why?
Had I already been too late?
Or was this the point where I had to proceed alone?
After descending to the ground, I collapsed face-first with dignity.
"I’m sorry. I’m so sorryyy..."
- Why, what is it
- What did you see
- Show us what you saw too
- Why is she suddenly like this
- Did the storm sweep all the soldiers away?;;
- Gasp
I was so sad.
I’d worked so hard preparing supplies. And yet there wasn’t a single person who would use them.
I lost about 1% of my reason for existing.
Dripping tears, I took out one of the lunch boxes I’d prepared in subspace and trudged forward.
"Please receive supplies... Please receive supplies..."
- ;;;
- These weak-ass bastards died in the storm and made Lady Yuyeon cry?
- If you’re dead, come receive supplies even as corpses
"Please receive warm supplies... You have to eat them while they’re warm... Ugh-!"
My foot caught on a stone, and I fell. My hands and feet trembled, and my thoughts grew stiff.
Since I’d fallen anyway, should I sleep?
- What, why did she collapse
- Looks like backlash from grand magic
- Don’t say ominous shit, fuck
I sprang back up and thought.
If Lady Ravina and the soldiers weren’t here, then I didn’t have to control my strength, did I?
I rotated my mana circle again and stirred up wind.
A lot. A great deal. Enough to change this canyon’s environment from “fog” to “strong winds.”
Minor magic into grand magic. Grand magic into ultra-grand magic.
The infinite mana welling up inside my body became wind and began filling the canyon.
- ???
- This actually seems like grand magic
- So the thing earlier was minor magic;;
- Get a grip, that was grand magic too
- What on earth did she see to cast magic on this scale
What mattered now was maintaining it.
I was going to keep this gale going until I cleared the 6th floor.
Now that I had visibility, let’s find the path.
Reinforcing my leg strength with aura, I swiftly roamed through the canyon.
It was a gale I had created myself, but even I found it hard to move, so getting around wasn’t easy.
Where on earth was the path to the True Ancestor’s castle?
"True Ancestor. True Ancestor. Where do you live? Let’s communicate..."
- True Anceeeeeeek!!!
- Absolutely do not open the door
- It’s fucked, Han Yuyeon is coming;;
- Han Yuyeon after giving up on restraint << seriously fucking terrifying
Even when I climbed up high and looked down, I couldn’t tell.
It seemed like it was hidden somewhere between the canyon walls.
To begin with, what was that path supposed to feel like?
A secret side path? A portal? Could it be underground?
Then how much time would I have to spend alone on the 6th floor?
Even after coming back down and racing between the canyon walls, I couldn’t get a sense of it.
Come to think of it, how long had it been since I ate?
This seemed like it would become a long battle, so should I eat first and then resume? Yes. Let’s eat first and think after that.
Regular meals were important, after all.
Without thinking, I took the mansion out of my subspace pouch.
- ?
"?"
The mansion collapsed in the gale I had created.
The roof cast off every shackle and restraint in the world and departed far away in search of happiness.
The pillars that had supported the mansion and the household goods I’d filled it with were not merely blown away, but torn apart here and there, scattering all over the place.
"???"
- ?????
"???????"
[Many Constellations are shocked.]
Damage control. As much as possible—no, even the bare minimum.
Controlling my magic, I somehow tried to put the flying logs back into subspace, but it didn’t mean much.
The trees, which were only E-rank, could not withstand the power of my magic for long and shattered into pieces.
"......"
- Uh
- Hmm...
- (Reading the room... Guardian emote)
[Many Constellations look at you.]
In a single moment, I had become homeless.
***
After Han Yuyeon’s mansion dismantling show.
The Constellations, who were watching Han Yuyeon suddenly lie down on the ground and fall asleep, swallowed groans.
Normally, they would have kept one another in check while trying to monopolize Han Yuyeon, but this situation was an exception.
Han Yuyeon had a very strong attachment to that subtly shabby mansion.
Because it was a mansion she had finally completed by repeatedly collapsing it, rebuilding it, collapsing it, and rebuilding it with the spirit of a craftsman.
Remembering Han Yuyeon proudly showing it off, unable to hide her happiness after completing it, made their hearts ache.
[Title: What do we do]
Author: Ending Collector
(A picture of Han Yuyeon sleeping on the bare ground)
Honestly, if she’d at least gone hing-ing-ing and cried, that might’ve been one thing
But seeing her not cry, just sit there blankly and then suddenly sleep, I can feel that we’re fucked...
What should we do...? I’m asking because I really, really don’t know...
- LookingForGems)It’s fucked
- Unicooorn)Boo... we’re screwed...
- SpearLab)Fucked! We! Are!
ㄴ Ending Collector)Hoeeng, I’m sorry, Yuyeon...
ㄴ SpearLab)Hey, this won’t do. Let’s start with the First Form
ㄴ Ending Collector)Okay
The First Form of Constellation Gallery, activated when they could not find an answer.
[Sigh, you call yourself a sage and still can’t find an answer]
[There’s a grandfather who stays still when his granddaughter’s house has flown away???]
[You’re bringing shame on all Constellations all by yourself]
[Boo... I’m embarrassed to be the same kind of Constellation...]
1. Beat Up the Sage was cast.
[The meteor is too strongggg!]
[Is meteor magic fire magic? Or earth magic? Or space magic? Or gravity magic?]
[Uwaaak, Yuyeon, save me]
2. Block My Meteor was cast in succession.
All that remained was 3. The Explainer Appears.
[Ah, blocking meteors is annoying, when is he coming]
[I’m starting to get tired of throwing meteors too]
Unable to resist their urging, hope finally appeared.
[Title: You bastards]
Author: Explainer
There’s only one way
We have no choice but to unite, like we did with the chicken
Yuyeon tends to forget things if you feed her something delicious
If you’ve got any S-rank stashed away, take it all out
EX-rank would be even better
- GrandpaArchive)The harvest season is still far off, so I have none.
- SpearLab)We! Are! Seriously! Fucked!
- Unicooorn)Boo... you’re broke...
- Ending Collector)You bastards, if only you hadn’t blown up my planet last time
- LookingForGems)I don’t have any either, because of certain people
- FarmingIsGood)I don’t have any either, because of you all
Due to restrictions, the only thing Constellations could sponsor to climbers was “ingredients acknowledged by the Tower.”
However, most Constellations were not the type to stockpile ingredients.
And even the few Constellations who had gathered some had ended up losing their ingredients due to the aftermath of the last Constellation war.
The Constellations, who had been content with obtaining ingredients only when necessary and sponsoring them to Han Yuyeon, were of absolutely no help in the current situation.
- Explainer)Fuck, this wasn’t Constellation Gallery, it was Beggar Gallery;
- Explainer)You incompetent bastards
- Explainer)If you don’t have any, go get some!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At Explainer’s roar, the Constellations hurriedly dragged their heavy bodies into motion.
[Title: Ingredients. No problem.]
Author: Sword Dad
(A pitch-black picture)
If Yuyeon needs them, somehow.
- SpearLab)? I can’t see anything
- FarmingIsGood)?
- Unicooorn)??
- Explainer)Stop wasting time posting question marks and go get ingredients!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They roamed between the stars in search of ingredients so rare they were beyond compare.
Childcare was truly this difficult.
***
I am Han Yuyeon. An authority on flexible homelessness.
In order to grow accustomed to the life of a homeless person, I slept for a while and woke up.
From now on, my bed would be the earth of this world, and my blanket would be the sky.
I don’t get dirty no matter where I sleep, so it’s fine... fine...
"......"
- Oh, she woke up
- IwasworriedIwasworriedIwasworried
- CanIbreatheNow?CanIbreatheNow?CanIbreatheNow?
- Lady Yuyeon, are you all right?
Let’s eat.
Nom nom. As I ate a supply lunch box, I forced back my tears.
I wasn’t sad because my house had flown away, but because I had had a rather sad dream.
A dream where I held a funeral for Lady Ravina and the soldiers.
Maybe because I’d had such an uneasy sleep, I had a nightmare like—
"......"
- ShesnotokayShesnotokayShesnotokayShesnotokayShesnotokay
- OkayIlldieOkayIlldieOkayIlldie
- ImSorryImSorryImSorryImSorry
If I’d slept in the mansion, I wouldn’t have had a nightmare like that.
Another sad thing was that I didn’t know what kind of funeral rites were used in Servain.
With the utmost courtesy, I held their funeral through the Maid Cosmic Triple Flame Tornado Peace.
I hoped my courtesy had not been lacking.
Lady Ravina. Soldiers. Is the afterlife all right? I’ll pray that they serve meals properly in the afterlife too.
... What if they don’t serve meals properly?
Is there any way I can go to the afterlife and give them lunch boxes?
If I could just find a way to communicate with the god who managed the afterlife, it might be possible.
- Why isn’t Lady Yuyeon saying anything
- Please say even one word
- Kek, kek... kek... kek...
[Many Constellations look at you.]
"I’m fine."
- You’re not fine at all!!!!!
- You’re having a hard time!!!!!!
[Many Constellations express concern for you.]
"I’m really fine."
- You want to cry!!!!!!
- It seriously looked like you worked fucking hard to build it, what do we do;
In any case, I had to do what needed to be done.
Even if I was alone, I had to clear the trial.
Because I had to return to Earth and open a maid café.
A maid who had to serve humanity had no time to dawdle.
Let’s summon the gale again.
As I tried to cast wind magic to secure visibility, my chest hurt.
Wh-what should I do? How did I use wind magic again?
Just as I was wandering in confusion for quite some time, I heard a voice I should not have heard.
"Benefactor...?"
"......"
- Oh?
It was probably another vampire pretending to be Lady Ravina.
After taking a sword out of my subspace pouch, I turned around.
There stood Lady Ravina, for some reason looking at me with worried eyes.
With the official proof of authenticity stamped on her in the form of a sword stuck in her stomach.
"Are you all right...?"
"Lady Ravina. How could you do something you shouldn’t do at a funeral hall?"
"Yes...? A-a funeral hall...?"
It really was Lady Ravina.
Someone to communicate with had appeared...!
Someone who would receive my supplies had appeared!
"Hing-ing-ing. Hug me."
"Ah, wait..."
The greatsword stuck in Lady Ravina’s abdomen was obstructing me from hugging her.
It got in the way, so I just put it into subspace.
[Ravina’s Holy Sword (S) has been stored in subspace.]
I was going to treat her too, but strangely, Lady Ravina’s abdomen healed in an instant.
"?!?! Benefactor?! What on earth!!"
"I hugged you..."
"Ahh...! Benefactor...!"
- Oh...
Hehe. I should treat her well.
While I tightly hugged Lady Ravina and clearly felt her presence in order to serve her the full maid course, I suddenly saw countless alarms rising up.
「You have acquired Maid Points.」
「You have acquired Maid Points.」
「You have acquired Maid Points.」
Hmm. What was it this time all of a sudden? I didn’t know.
Let’s just focus on this feeling right now.
Happiness, happiness. I was happy.
