“Ahhh, thank God that everyone is safe!”

“Thank God, that’s great………………!”

When they returned back to Selin village all of the people in the village welcomed them with tears in their eyes. They were really worried that someone might be grievously injured.

The doctor that came over from the town of Harmil also had a relieved expression.

“We’re back. Everyone is safe so please be relieved. However, it’s not that no one is injured………so please get them treated immediately.

“Yes, we’ll prepare for doing the treatment.”

Anton said.

Anton nodded at Selesina’s request and guided Gatz and the others to the soldier’s station. They were relieved once the treatment was over.

“It was so surprising, Toi was greatly successful.”

“Toi…………….?”

Gatz and Anton were talking to each other while walking. Gatz was telling him about what transpired.

However, Anton didn’t seem to understand the flow.

‘That’s right. Normally, you could never imagine that a dog would be able to take down a great monster…………….’

Selesina smiled and watched Hisui who was cleaning the carriage.

The injured people including Gatz had ridden the carriage earlier so it had become a little dirty.

‘……………I must quickly raise the level of the [Blessings of the Amulet].’

‘Blessings of the Amulet’ was a skill that kept monsters and wild animals away from a certain radius of the great tree.

There were 3 Levels and right now she was at Level 2.

At level 3, no monsters or wild animals would appear within 5 Km of the great tree.

There was a possibility that people may go hunting further than that but normally for normal living, it was more than enough.

‘The rock snake appeared a little within 5 Km of the great tree………….’

She needed to quickly defeat monsters and level up.

The condition for leveling up was to defeat 1000 monsters.

“I defeated about 100 monsters till now. I guess I must do my best every day. There is no other way is there?”

If it was in-game, this would have been achieved quickly but right now it was real life so she had had to be more careful If something were to happen it would be worrisome for the people around her as well.

‘I’ll speak to Hisui and start shooting every day.’

Selesina spent the day in her house in Selin village and spent the night at the mansion in Harmil. That’s how she spends her days these days………Once she reached the mansion in Harmil, she received a letter from Meria.

“……………”

She wanted to be forgiven for thinking ‘Uwahhhh’ at receiving correspondence from her.

Hisui prepared her tea and smiled at Selesina who was making that kind of a face.

“Isn’t it fine to just throw it away without reading it?”

“No, I’ll read it properly.

Selesina shook her head at Hisui who told her that so simply.

She didn’t know what was written inside but Meria was the heroine of this game. There was a chance that this was…………a letter containing something important.

She used a paper-knife to open the envelope. The letter was written on cute paper with flower patterns.

“Lady Meria is an apprentice at the shrine right?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Meria had touched Selesina’s great tree without Selesina’s permission which caused quite some issues so she was sent to the shrine to learn as an apprentice.

She was busy every day with strict training………………..but it seems that she had enough time to send a letter to Selesina.

‘Lovely rounded handwriting………..’

Selesina read through the letter and was lost for words.

“An invitation to the small shrine……..?”

“Eh, with that she can easily invite Lady Sele.”

She smiled at the surprised Hisui and told him the summary of the contents of the letter.

Meria had gone to the small shrine in order to study as an apprentice.

She was blessed by the God of fertility Frey so she was staying in the shrine as a ‘Shrine maiden’. That blessing was pretty rare so it was useful.

The contents of her studying included studying about the Gods and Goddesses. Meria had mentioned in the letter that the power of her blessings had increased.

For that reason she had invited Selesina to the small shrine since she wanted…………to teach Selesina about it…………that was the purpose.

‘Somehow I can’t imagine learning something from Meria………….’

However, no matter what, Meria was the heroine of this game.  So it was better for her to hear Meria out…………. Selesina thought.

Selesina didn’t want to get too involved. However, she judged that it would be better for her to have a proper relationship with her.

“………………I’ll accept the invitation Hisui. Could you please make the preparations for replying to her?”

“Certainly.”

Hisui prepared the stationery, pen, etc on the table and called out to Selesina.

“It has been prepared.”

‘He had become more and more like a butler………’
