That awkward moment.
Year 7444, Month 9, Day 2
Morning, after going running I took breakfast with everyone and started drinking some tea when a couple I've seen before and another couple I haven't seen a total of four people came asking for me. Since the places we eat breakfast at is limited to 4-5 places if someone were to seriously look for us it's easy to find us.
The couple I haven't seen before was just a matter of not having seen them but I knew their name and face.
The man is named Koritto.Rindobel, a 34 year old Laios and the woman is Meilia.Rindobel, she's a Laios of the same age and they're a married couple. The other pair is a Dog-people, Zemyunel and the female elf who was with him and didn't get lost Hisurura.Harurein. It seems that the Rindobel couple is the other pair of leaders from Zemyunel ins {Sun Ray}. Most likely they've come to offer thanks for saving Ginger and Binsu. They politely lowered their heads to me.
"Greed-san, thank you for saving our party members from a crisis this time. Furthermore, is seems to have been for extremely low reward..that is, we really were saved."
Meiria the wife of the Rindobel couple said. Does that mean the wife is the true leader?
It doesn't particularly matter though.
"No, please don't mind it. We only did what was obvious."
The Rindobel couple opened their eyes in surprise hearing my words but quickly erased their expressions and lowered their heads again.
"I see now, you're quite the splendid person."
"Yeah, it's just as we had heard."
Zemyunel proceeds forward and lowered his head as well.
"And then, it's fine if it's just a bit but could we borrow some of your time?"
"Yeah, that's fine. What is it? Please take a seat."
Now then, I wonder what it is about. The matter of the shower or the matter of cooperating. Or both. I exchange glances with the annoyouple, Angela, Giberuti, and Miduchi who were drinking tea at the same six person table as me had them move to the corner and then offered them a seat. The members of {Sun Ray} saluted the members who offered up their seat and then sat down. While I'm sitting on a corner edge the Rindobel couple sat in front of me but next to them is Zemyunel and then one seat on my side across from Zemyunel is Harurein.
"Since we finally left the dungeon yesterday night I'm sorry for being so late on the greetings."
The husband of the Rindobel couple said that while lowering his head. Miduchi is talking to the waiter about something in the corner. Since Miduchi looked at me I lightly nodded. Miduchi is writing something on the table with her finger.
"No, it's already something that's past us, really please don't worry over it.."
I shake both of my hands in front of me. I don't know about you all but to us it's already something in the past. Honestly speaking, I don't think anything of it more than a bit of materials to let us have the advantage.
"And also, we were only able to rescue two people, one other we were too late for and had already passed away, the remaining one I wonder is still in the dungeon?"
I continued as if it was quite unfortunate.
"Putting aside Bogu who still hasn't returned, we feel nothing but gratitude for even going to the trouble of carrying Yuriel's remains out."
Zemyunel said that lowering his head. That's why I said, it's already over. It's already more than enough being thanked once.
"Ha.."
I shrugged my shoulders and lightly lowered my head.
"And then, that is..We also heard that you're allowing us to use the shower facilities in the teleport room on the 5th floor as well. It's a great help."
Koritto said. And right after he faced his wife and nodded.
"Of course, we also intend to bring in someone to observe the facilities and make sure there's no damage to them. The reason we came today other than to say our thanks was to report and receive permission for that."
Meiria said that and lowered her head to me. Seeing that the other members of {Sun Ray} also lowered their heads. It was then that the same bean tea I'm drinking was carried out and placed in front of them.
I guess this is what Miduchi just ordered from the waiter.
"Well, please have some tea."
After saying that I finally sipped some of the bean tea in front of me. The members of {Sun Ray} said "Thank you very much." and started drinking some too.
"..Of course your welcome. Since it's difficult to continue to maintain it with just us after all. Obviously please feel free to use it as you need."
Yeah, it's great that saving them for cheap change didn't end up becoming a waste. Hearing my response not only the members of {Sun Ray} but the members of {Slaughterers} seemed relieved as well. Certainly there was also the possibility of a breakdown with {Sun Ray} as well.
"Meiria, we're saved that Greed-san is a good person right."
"Yeah, really.. Greed-san even though you're young you're quite splendid."
"That's why I said it right? He's fine."
Harurein cut into the conversation of the Laios couple saying that. Miduchi is looking directly over here.
"That really seems to be the case."
"Yeah. It's just as Zemyunel and the others said."
After that we roughly exchanged information on our schedules for exploring the dungeon and they left the store.
I took one glance at the members of {Slaughterers} and then looked at Miduchi.
Miduchi just lightly nodded. I see.
"Shall we change locations? Come to my room."
I said that and left the store.
On the way back Miduchi secretly whispered in my ear.
"They were only lying about a small portion. The time when they called you a "good person" or said you were "splendid"."
Hmph, as expected. I bet they just think I'm softhearted idiot brat or something. Though if it's that then there's no problem.
................
When we entered our rooms in "Boil Manor" I told Zulu, Angela, and Giberuti, "We're going to have an important conversation about magic. Keep an eye out and don't let anyone near the room." and only us reincarnated people and Zenom entered the room.
"Explain to everyone about your Unique Ability. It might be good to test it out as well."
I said to Miduchi and pushed her on.
"My Unique Ability is called {Party-ization}. When I use this, a number equal to the level of my Unique Ability can be organized into a unit which makes it easy to get into contact with each other through me. Though the contact itself is one-way from my side but the members of the unit are capable of telling the direction and distance of other members, in other words it's possible to comprehend each other's locations. It's valid as long as you're on the same floor in the dungeon. Since my {Party-ization} level is 6 right now, excluding me up to 7 people, including me a total of 8 people can be included in the unit."
Hearing that everyone showed expressions of admiration.
"Koloil-san, please put out your hand."
Miduchi said that and Bel stretched out her hand to Miduchi.
"There's only one condition on this Unique Ability. I can only use it on people who recognize me as a friend. Please open your heart to me and focus on me."
...
As a matter of fact I was worried.
If no one here had opened their hearts to Miduchi then the only one {Party-ization} could be used on is me. In that case it would be meaningless unless we split up the party in two groups.
I thought it would be best to wait for a bit for her to blend into the group and then it wouldn't be too late to make a decision on revealing it but Miduchi refused that.
"..Thank goodness. Thank you very much."
Miduchi smiled as she was happy.
"..Ah..Yeah. I can tell. Certainly. This is, amazing!"
I put my hand to my chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"M..Me, please add me next."
Toris volunteered. Just the same way Miduchi touched Toris's hand.
"..Oh..So this is how it feels. Excuse me for a moment."
Toris left the room. I'm sure he wants to test it out.
