…That’s how I was affectionately scolded by her, but in any case, even in my excitement, I conveyed the purpose of finding her today.

“Hmm… So, husband, what do you mean by wanting to learn swordsmanship from me?”

After a rather awkward pause, I was able to lie down next to her and have a proper conversation.

“Exactly as it sounds. I want to learn swordsmanship from you.”

“….Come to think of it, I think I heard before that your previous occupation was a monster hunter… Is that the reason?”

I vaguely remember mentioning it in passing before… She must have remembered it too.

Thinking that she wouldn’t be able to handle it, I spoke.

“Yes. I have my own reasons in my world too.”

Upon hearing this, she spoke with a slightly unpleasant expression.

“….Honestly, I wish my husband didn’t do dangerous things. If my husband could stay in this world, I would have taken on that role instead and prevented him from doing such dangerous things.”

No, even if that were the case, I wouldn’t want to become a lazy human who stays at home doing nothing while leaving all the outside work to her…

Nevertheless, she seemed to understand that it was practically impossible for her to oppose me, so she quickly continued.

“Yes, it’s a wife’s duty to make her husband strong so that he doesn’t get hurt if he has to do such things. Don’t worry, husband. My job is also important… I’ll help you.”

Well, I’m really grateful for that.

And then, out of nowhere, she said something amazing…

“….Huh? Me?”

“….Isn’t it?”

“It doesn’t seem like it’s not, but…”

I keep getting dragged into conversations when I stay quiet.

“Hehe. So, what’s the problem, husband? Accept this wife’s help quietly. Come here.”

As she tried to brush off this important conversation with a kiss or a hug, is it right to let it pass like this?

But still, her dedication and love are truly appreciated…

“….Yes, thank you anyway.”

As I quietly expressed my gratitude, she asked me.

“But husband, even if I said I would teach you swordsmanship, isn’t it impossible today and already too late?”

That’s true.

I didn’t exactly check the time, but the matching time will be ending soon.

“Is that so?”

“If that’s the case, let’s postpone the swordsmanship lesson for later and focus on making me happy one more time for now, okay?”

With deliberate gestures, she seduced me with the natural movements of a woman.

“….Ah.”

…I thought I could regain my composure, but being with her made me feel like I would forever be a lazy human.

But I didn’t want to give in to that temptation.

“I love you, husband. Come here.”

As I embraced her, she whispered softly in my ear…

It seemed like I was just a butterfly caught in her spider web.

– expresses (★★★☆☆) satisfaction with your meeting.

Please connect with more potential partners.

After sharing love with her in a daze, I realized that I was back in my original room.

I checked my phone alarm first.

“….Only 3 stars?”

And seeing that her satisfaction score was still not 5 stars on the screen, I furrowed my brows.

I thought I had a deep emotional connection with her, so why haven’t I been able to satisfy her yet?

I pondered for a moment, but I just couldn’t figure it out.

“Wasn’t it because the meeting we had last time suddenly disappeared in the middle, that my score was low?”

As I was checking the app like that, a notification popped up from the app.

“What kind of app is this, exactly?”

I had no intention of meeting any other woman besides her, but the number of potential female partners increased arbitrarily.

As if the app was recommending me to meet as many partners as possible.

Regardless of the app’s intentions, I did not proceed with a new match.

Not only did I feel guilty about meeting a new woman in front of her, but I also didn’t feel a strong desire to meet another woman at the moment.

…Honestly, one is enough.

Knowing how devoted that one person is to me, the current me felt overwhelmed even by that one person’s love.

Rather than that, I was more concerned about why she still didn’t give me the highest score.

Anyway, such concerns can wait.

More importantly, I had been eyeing something at the store as an extension of the temperament I purchased last time.

=========

[Temperament: Sensitive Senses (E): Your senses become highly sensitive when moving. Receives a significant correction in cunning.]

=========

=========

[10pt]

=========

I purchased a temperament that seemed to go well with the low-grade armor I currently have.

“I should raise my Hunter rank.”

If the low-grade armor and her teachings come together, I could quickly become a top-tier Hunter, right?

However, after purchasing the temperament, I felt a nagging feeling that I had forgotten something important.

As I pondered what it could be,

“Cough!”

I suddenly lost consciousness due to excruciating pain.

.

.

.

“Forgetfulness is a whole other level of forgetful.”

How much time had passed?

After regaining consciousness from the excruciating pain that made me lose my mind, I checked my body’s condition.

There didn’t seem to be any noticeable changes before and after losing consciousness, but there was a slightly tingling sensation that was different from before.

“Let’s try running for a bit.”

To accurately determine what had changed about myself, it seemed necessary to do so.

=========

-Agility has increased by 0.1 from long-distance running.

-Endurance has increased by 0.1 from relentless exercise.

-Agility has increased by 0.1 from long-distance running.

=========

As I was running diligently in the park,

“Oops!”

“Sorry.”

“…Be careful.”

Feeling a strong sensation, I slowed down and a person jumped out from a corner.

“Hey, watch out…”

“Running alone in the park…”

After a brief sprint in the park, I realized that it was becoming increasingly difficult for me to use the park anymore, as such incidents repeated several times.

‘…It’s hard to run with full force anywhere that’s not wide open.’

It was because my physical abilities were starting to surpass those of ordinary people, making it impossible for me to run at full speed among people.

If it weren’t for the new temperament I had acquired, I would have almost collided with people several times.

‘Maybe I should look into a training room for awakened individuals again…’

But come to think of it, well… the fact that a Hunter was training normally in a park was already strange in itself.

I’ve been using the park because there was no significant difference between running in front of the house and paying a lot of money for a place overflowing with people, but now the situation was a bit different.

“Let’s go home.”

Realizing that I needed a better environment to raise my stats, even if it was because of the newly acquired temperament, I thought it was meaningless to spend time here, so I had no choice but to turn back home.

“Where should I look?”

Returning home like that, I immediately started looking into the private training room for awakened individuals.

“….Still expensive.”

And soon enough, I couldn’t help but panic at the price range.

It was a steep price that even an E-rank hunter, who could only enter F-rank gates, would find difficult to pay.

Because of that, when I had just awakened, I used to go to the training room even if I had to borrow money, but due to the stats not improving well, I started going to the park.

“The money I have now is….”

None….

My wallet is empty, and my bank account balance is already at the bottom.

Only the rent for this month is left.

I haven’t been able to do anything these days, but I felt like I had to go into a gate to avoid starving.

*

“Now I can enter E-rank gates.”

Having recently obtained an official license for E-rank, I investigated the gates I could enter, and I was able to find a dungeon gate that had conveniently appeared nearby.

=========

A dungeon gate where E-rank low-level monster Hounds appear.

I know for a fact that Hounds, despite being low-risk monsters of E-rank, offer quite a high reward per kill.

If I were to become an E-rank hunter, it seemed quite appropriate to start with this memorable first monster.

I took out my phone to contact the number attached below for inquiries.
