“What is your goal in leveling up?”

“Hmm? Me?”

“Yes.”

Elira asked me this the day after the mock battle when we were all heading to the deep forest together.

“You’re the strongest one here, aren’t you? There are probably only a few people in the whole world, including monsters, who are stronger than you. Especially if you don’t fight, you are already strong enough to beat anyone.”

First of all, there are only a few evolved people in the world. Furthermore, I have three extra skills. At this point, I can be considered quite strong.

“It’s hard to say what my goal is, but I want to be strong enough to beat anyone. The last time I lost, Carina was in danger. So I want to be able to protect those close to me. Even if we try to live peacefully, we still have enemies in the form of demons.”

“Right…”

If I had been killed in that fight with Emperor Lich, Carina, who was nearby, would have been killed next. I want to be strong enough to not let that happen. If I wanted, I would be strong enough to go to Sophie, Elira, and Carina at that time to save them.

“On the other hand, what is your goal, Elira?”

I asked.

“My immediate goal is to be stronger than you?”

Elira looked at me sideways for a few seconds. Then she let out a small sigh and continued.

“I’ve already realized how difficult it is. Even if I stay with you and do the same things, the gap between us will only widen. But I’m not going to be as efficient training away from you.”

“………”

I didn’t know how to respond to that. Frankly, I am strong because of the [title] collection the goddess gave me. Without it, I’d be quite weak. In other words, unlike Elira, my strength is not something I acquired through my own efforts alone.

“I didn’t say those weak words to make myself look so pathetic. Even if I can’t beat you, I have a goal to become the next strongest by your side, so you don’t have to worry.”

This time, she finally looked at Sophie sideways as she said this.

“The simple fact is that it’s hard for me to win when you’re under contract with the king of spirits and the highest level of spirits, but it’s even harder when you’re under contract with the devil king and the beast king as well.”

Simply put, in a fight between Elira and me, it would be two against five. That makes it seem harder to win.

“What is Sophie’s goal in leveling up?”

After I finished talking with Elira, this time I asked Sophie the same question. Sophie is also quite strong. I was simply curious about Sophie’s goal.

“I guess my number one goal right now is to be able to sabotage that Im’s teleportation.”

“Ah….”

Yes. The reason why we had to fight with the demons separately in the first place is because of the teleportation skill Im used. The next goal is to prevent that from happening.

“If I can achieve that, the next goal is to be able to kill Im.”

“Ha-ha…”

Sophie seemed to be very disappointed that Im had escaped from her. According to Sophie, she couldn’t even hit her with any damage. So she’s determined not to let her escape the next time they meet.

By the way, Shana’s goal is to evolve, and Carina’s goal is to evolve and make a contract with the beast.

“We’re in the deep forest. Okay, then, teleportation!”

While we were talking like that, we arrived in front of the deep forest. As before, I gave Yug the magic power and we all teleported to the deep forest.

“Then, let’s go hunting for monsters right away.”

“Yes.”

“Okay.”

“Okay.”

“I understand.”

We had only been walking in the deep forest for about an hour today, so we didn’t need a break. We immediately headed deeper into the forest to hunt for monsters.

“There were more monsters than ever before.”

“Not twice as many…but definitely more.”

We continued hunting until late afternoon, but there were more monsters than we had hunted before.

“Well, it’s a little early, but let’s go back and get ready for encampment today.”

Today is our first day in the deep forest, so we can still hunt in time, but we pulled out here today and started preparing for encampment.

“Can we keep the lookout the same as we have been, and group together?”

“…… yes.”

“No problem.”

“Okay.”

“No problem.”

Sophie was the only one who seemed a little uncomfortable, but all four of us were fine with that. So, as before, the group of me, Elira, Carina, Sophie and Shana were to keep watch at night. And today we were to be the first ones on watch.
