Kouske's POV

It's already been a few days but Momo's still avoiding me like a plague. But she's still peeking at me from time to time. She would always get red whenever we made eye contact.

Lavinia's in peak popularity. She's the hottest topic in school as people don't usually see foreigners in these parts, well except for the devils.

And Asagi-chan's as cute as ever.

*hmph!*

I think I heard someone hmphing in the background. It must be my imagination.

After school, I sent Lavinia and Asagi home together as I was invited by the Shidous to have lunch with them. It's been a while since I've been to the Shidou household. Normally I would just meet up with Irina in the park.

So after some time, I ended up at the Shidous door. When I knocked once an excited Irina-chan popped up.

Behind her was her mother with an amused look on her face. But I could also see a grumpy Uncle Touji sitting on the sofa drinking some beverage.

"Kou-kun!Come on in!" Irina urged me to get inside with her.

"It's nice meeting you again Miyamura-kun," said Mrs. Shidou.

"It's nice to meet you again, Aunty"

I get inside the house. I greeted Uncle Touji but all I got was a half-assed glare. It seems the church is keeping him in great stress if he's glaring at a child for no obvious reason.

"How's your life going Miyamura-kun? Are you even eating properly?" Aunty asked.

"It's been great. I'm a great chef you know. And my neighbors have also been quite helpful so there's nothing to worry about. Nevertheless thank you" I said as I boasted a bit about my ever-growing culinary skills. Maybe because of this feeling of satisfaction, Emiya continued to strive hard to reach his God Level of culinary skills.

"That's good to hear. You can always to us if you need any help"

"Hm"

I also saw Uncle Touji nodding his head. After that was just a simple conversation about our daily lives.

At one point, I told them about Lavinia. They were a bit saddened hearing about her parents but overall happy to see that we could rely on each other.

After that, I had lunch with the Shidous. Unfortunately, Uncle had to return to the church as something important had come up.

It must be because of the recent increase in strays. The church was stressed out. I could also see Belial's peerage working their butt off through my familiars.

I didn't stay long in the house after that. I played a bit with Irina then left for home. But I made a promise to her to go to the Amusement park together with her on the next holiday.

But Amusement parks don't allow lone children to roam around the park. So it was decided that Aunt would accompany us. Along with Lavinia, the four of us will go.

When I reached home, I saw Lavinia deep in her thoughts while holding the notes on magic. She's working very hard but I need to make sure she's eaten her lunch as sometimes she could get so immersed in her studies that she forgets about food.

"Rey-chan~.Have you eaten lunch?"

She looked up at me surprised.

"Oh!Ko-kun!When did you arrive?"

"Just now. Have you eaten?"

"Hmm," she nods her head cutely.

"I had lunch in Asagi-chan's house."

"Good" I had also left food in the fridge. Doesn't matter...

I didn't disturb her any further. I along with Hawks headed to the dungeon.

We are searching for the boss monster. So we don't want to waste our time dealing with the normal slime.

But there are hundreds of slime in this place. Even though we have killed so many so far. They always get replenished every time.

So we start moving with some big AOE skills active. Hawks activates Wind Hurricane which creates a tornado of wind. He fires off in directions the slimes are concentrated in, killing many in the aftermath.

I do something similar. I activate Senbonzakura which creates dark black sakura petals. They look like they are on fire. It would be a mesmerizing scene if not for getting scorched to death whenever a single petal touches the slimes. Even a single petal is deadly. It can kill a Low Class(high) being in a few moments with a single petal.

My strength has reached the peak of the Low-Class power level. So along with my cursed flames, it's a natural thing to happen. Vritra was very impressed by this skill. It not only has strength but also aesthetic value. It would bring a 'beautiful' death to my foes.

We searched the entire forest for an hour. I have become significantly faster than the first time came here. So it isn't hard to go over this place in a short time.

Not finding anything I went to the huge river on the side of the forest. This is where I met the first Water Elemental Slime and almost died. I along with Hawks dive into the water. There was a water bubble around me with oxygen supplied from the air. Even without it, I could probably stay a long time inside the water without breathing.

Deep in the water, there weren't any kind of aquatic creatures or any fungus or viridity for that matter. It was a completely clean river. So the view was amazing.

But I could see some normal slimes in the water along with some almost transparent blue slimes. I guessed they were water elemental slimes.

Because they are deep underwater they almost looked transparent blending in with the surroundings. If one didn't possess exceptional eyes they could have missed them. After increasing my strength I have found all my senses to be more sharp and sensitive to things with mana.

I could see as many as 20-25 of them. We were lucky that all of them weren't grouped. Many remained alone far away from the smaller groups of two or three.

Hawks started using wind slashes that have a larger volume than simple wind bullets. They hit two of the slimes. When they noticed they also started attacking using water canons or water balls.

Both of us activated our Whirlwind Shield to safeguard us from the attacks. All of their attacks were meaningless. The attacks would just slide off from the course because of our shields. It seems the skill is working wonders but it would be bad if they all attacked together as it cannot fend off stronger attacks.

I also attack them using an ice lance. After a few minutes of battle, we hadn't killed them, just exhausted them so that I could tame them.

I started the taming ritual and it was a success. I got three new families. After that, we kept targeting the smaller groups that were around us before going after the single ones. After exhausting them I would just use taming.

This kept repeating until there were no rare slimes. It took us about roughly two hours to get them all. After that, we ventured inside the river to find anything suspicious but unfortunately, we couldn't find any clue about the boss.

So we came back home. But could see a worried Lavinia inside my room. I forgot to tell her it would be late. After she saw us she hugged both Hawks and me before getting all pouty and angry saying I should have informed her even if she was busy. I had to appease her with some cherry pies.

After having an unhealthy dinner buffet of sweets we went to our room to sleep. Lavinia was still hugging me. It isn't bad hugging a cute girl to sleep.

[A/N: Check out the other work I'm publishing here on Webnovel.It's a fanfiction of "Classroom of the Elite" with an OC MC. I'm not the author of that fic. I'm just translating it. It's pretty good with a unique MC. So check it out.

And today I saw all my stones reset. Do they reset weekly? When do they reset?

How is the power ranking counted? Is it weekly? Based on the number of stones? But I saw some who had less than 50 stones who were still on the rankings. How does that work?
