Chapter 27: Royal Family's Judgment Part 2

Fiene-san and the others seemed to understand when I told them about the events at the royal castle, and they offered words of praise, saying, "Good job, and thank you for your hard work."

"The royal family has many talented individuals, but some of them have a more creative mindset, I suppose. They tend to do things freely within the constraints imposed on them."

"Yes, I had some idea about it, but I never expected it to go that far... I didn't think even the king would appear."

"His Majesty Ruphondorus loves children dearly, so he probably agreed to cooperate at the request of Princess Philis."

When Fiene-san said that, Chloe trembled slightly and said, "I was scared of the king."

Well, I knew him as a character in the game, so I had some expectations and was mentally prepared.

But Chloe, on the other hand, fainted because she suddenly found herself face-to-face with the king.

"I did warn Princess, but if something similar happens again, please ask the guild to refrain from requesting our assistance at the royal castle."

"Stopping unpleasant requests is also part of our role as partners, so we will handle it that way. We apologize, Jin-san, Chloe-san, for preparing a request that made you feel uncomfortable," Fiene-san and Rikora-san lowered their heads and apologized to us.

After that, we were mentally exhausted, so we decided to disband for the day.

"Phew, I'm really tired..."

After parting ways with Chloe, I returned to the inn and lay down on the bed.

Perhaps because I was tired, I was about to fall asleep, but I suddenly realized it and forced myself to sit up.

"That was close... Lately, I've been easily falling asleep when I'm tired... There was something I had to do today."

I reminded myself and moved to a chair instead of the bed, displaying my status.

"Even at this level, the fact that I've raised two points in just a month really shows how strong the character Jin is..."

Other characters in this world, who are at level 30, don't level up just by defeating the orcs and goblins I usually take down in the hundreds.

This is Jin, who has the ability of "Growth Promotion" and has a hidden ability that increases his growth rate.

Realizing once again that Jin's power is just like in the game, I began practicing magic to acquire a certain skill.

"That skill, which was only mentioned in the official character cheat sheet and didn't appear in the main story, should help me in this world..."

With that in mind, I focused on acquiring the skill.

And during that time until the sun set, I practiced magic to obtain the skill by any means necessary.

The name of the skill I acquired is "Meditation," one of the recovery-type skills.

"I barely managed to acquire it because I had just enough magic power, but it might have consequences tomorrow..."

Continuously practicing magic to acquire the skill, I was almost out of magic power and had a headache.

I had wanted this skill, but Cynthia never mentioned that it would be this difficult...

I had been wanting this skill for a long time, but I didn't know how to obtain it in this world, so I had put it off.

When I talked to Cynthia about the "Meditation" skill, she said she knew the method to acquire it, and I took notes and put it into practice today.

"Phew... But now I have one more skill that will be useful for exploring the labyrinth. If Chloe's magic power increases, I'll teach her this skill too."

Since Chloe also had it in the game, I thought I would be able to acquire it.

Leaving my room to have dinner, I thought, "Phew... But now I have one more skill that will be useful for exploring the labyrinth. If Chloe's magic power increases, I'll teach her this skill too."

In the game, both the hero and I possessed the "Meditation" skill, so I knew its power from actual gameplay.

The skill's abilities were simple: it enhanced natural recovery effects and, when actually used, it could quickly heal wounds.

In the game, there were areas where healing was prohibited, and players were saved by this skill multiple times.

"Jin, what's wrong? You look even more tired than when you came back."

"I was just thinking about some things and overusing my brain."

"You're the type to do that. What kind of difficult things were you thinking about?"

Ricardo said with a bewildered expression as he brought me my dinner.

I ate the meal that was brought to me slowly, and after finishing it, I took a shower and lay down on the bed, immediately falling asleep.
