"Hahh ~ !? After all, the bath is good!!"

"That's right. The bath here is calming."

Aki and I finish washing our bodies and soak in the bath. Having a bath after a few days, I feel as if I have returned to my own home.

Hot springs and spas can give you a special feeling of being out of the ordinary, and there are services that specialize in healing and beauty, so you can completely heal your body and mind, but there is a sense of security here that this is where you belong.

"Speaking of which, where did Fuhito go?"

Aki asks me while leaning his back against the edge of the bathtub and looking up at the ceiling with a blank face.

He looks quite relaxed.

"Hmm? Do you know about Spa Emotional in Kounan District?"

"Haa!? You went to SpaEmo!?"

Aki suddenly gets up and asks me back in surprise.

"Aki knows it too."

The facility seems to be so popular that even Aki knows about it.

"Of course!! It's an ESJ-related facility, and it's a super popular facility for massages and beauty treatments that are said to be miracles. Well, it makes sense that you would change so much."

"I knew it was popular, but I didn't think it would be that much."

When I see other people's reactions, I thought it was popular, but I didn't expect it to be that much.

"You're really missing something."

"Hahahaa. I'm told that often."

Aki says to me with an exasperated expression. I smile wryly because I don't care.

"Still, you were able to go to such a facility. Wasn't it overflowing with people?"

"No, there weren't that many people because of the time of the year. Besides, I had a connection."

I answer Aki's question while remember the situation at SpaEmo.

"Aah. When you went to ESJ with your sister and Alexia-chan, the Stampede happened, and you helped with that, right?"

"Yes, yes. Thanks to that, we were able to have a lot of conveniences. We were able to spend a lot of time comfortably."

"I envy you."

Aki, who looks like he could see the inspiration mark, asks me about the time we went to ESJ to play, so I answer slightly exaggeratedly, and Aki looks genuinely envious.

But nothing happened.

There was certainly some damage there, and if we had noticed it sooner, the damage could have been smaller or reduced to zero.

However, I want to make the most of it next time instead of regretting it.

"Well, we ended up facing a Stampede from the sea on a large scale."

"Everywhere you go, you're involved in incidents. Aren't you an angel of death?"

When he shrugs his shoulders and says that, I frown.

"Excuse me. I didn't do anything."

I also answer with an annoyed expression.

But, come to think of it, I can't deny that I'm involved in incidents wherever I go.

Shushima Dungeon 'Dungeon Rebirth'. The Stampede in the Beast Cave Dungeon near ESJ. The Forest Dungeon Stampede. And this time the Stampede from the sea.

What Aki is saying about being splendidly involved so far may not be off the mark.

"No, I might be an angel of death after all ..."

"What's with you all of a sudden ..."

"When I look back, there was certainly a lot going on where I was."

"It's just a joke, so don't take it seriously."

"Even so. Considering it's happening quite often, it might happen again."

"N, no way, that's not true."

"I want to think so too ..."

-Gogogogogogogogogooo

"Wow!?"

"Are you serious!?"

The earth trembles and the ground shakes as if my words had triggered it.

"Hahahahaa. You do seem to be an angel of death!!"

"Sorry, it seems so!!"

We look at each other with dry smiles.

"Hey, you guys!! The school's F-rank dungeon has triggered a Stampede!! Help clear the monsters!! I'm going first!!"

""Roger!!""

The Senpai from earlier comes to the bathroom and calls us.

We immediately wipe down our bodies, change our clothes with the change ring, and go outside.

-Gogogogogogogogogooo

"A Stampede has been triggered in the E-rank dungeon!! Explorers, please lend us a hand!!"

When we head outside, we hear a shout that the E-rank dungeon has triggered a Stampede in response to the F-rank dungeon's Stampede.

"You definitely are an angel of death!!"

"Really!!"

We both laugh at each other to distract from the chaotic situation.

"Then, I'm going to the F-rank dungeon!!"

"Understood. Then, I guess I'll go to the E-rank dungeon."

"Alright, be careful!!"

"You too!!"

Considering each other's current power, we decide to change the dungeon we head to.

-Gogogogogogogogogooo

However, the earth thunders even more as if to ridicule it.

"It's serious!! A Stampede even in the D-rank dungeon!! High-rank explorers, come here!!"

A Stampede occurs in the last dungeon, the D-rank dungeon.

This, it's serious. But, I have a track record of completing a D-rank dungeon Stampede with Shia. I think it will be helpful for me to go there.

"Hahahahaa ... Maybe not an angel of death, but a Shinigami."(TN:Shinigami is a God of Death.)

"What a coincidence. I thought so too."

I nod in agreement with Aki, who has a dry smile on his face.

We both know it's a joke, but we can't do it if we don't break the tension.

"I'm going to the D-rank dungeon."

"Yes!!"

We split up and start running.
