After some sleep, I got up from bed and saw them still sleeping in bed. I looked at their peaceful sleeping faces and started to think a little.
Hmmm, it’s hard to tell exactly how much time has passed in a dungeon, isn’t it? This is something I’ve been thinking about since I was conquering the Labyrinth of Time’s Lament. I didn’t have any trouble at that time, but I’d still like to know the time, wouldn’t I?
Well, I don’t think it’s too late to be thinking about this.
That’s the way it is, even if I want to make a watch, I’ll have to go to ……. When I thought about it, an epiphany came to me.
It doesn’t have to be physical, does it? I have time-space magic, you know.
And so I quickly create magic. Magic is imagery. Visualize it intensely, deeply. Digital clocks on Earth, and the passage of time.
――That’s how I created that magic.
「Huh. That’s brilliant, even for me.」
I praised myself, knowing that no one was listening.
「I guess I’ll have to chant the first time I use it? Time, tick! Mark the passing time of the world. 【Clock】!」
As soon as I finish my chanting, something that looks like a translucent digital clock appears in front of me.
This is convenient. Hmm, it’s seven in the morning. It’s time to wake up the two of them, eat breakfast, and then attack this place at once.
After that, I woke them up and got some food, and we started going deeper into the dungeon again.
With only eight floors left, we went non-stop to the fortieth floor…….
There were not many Aspidocerons until the fortieth floor.
Sadly, the fact that I beat a lot of them yesterday may have affected things.
When I used 〈Appraisal〉on the boss of the 40th floor, his name was Big Aspidochelon. It looked like a giant Aspidochelon that was 15 meters long, but my 〈Lightning Magic〉 killed it instantly, so there was nothing special to mention about its strength or combat.
Since the fortieth floor is the lowest level, there is a transfer zone, and after using it to go outside, I use my magic to transfer us to the inn.
When we transferred to the inn, Maria said,「I want to be in the same inn with LouiLoui and Ele! I want the same room!」. So we went to the reception desk of the inn and told them that we wanted to change our room, and we got a new room for three.
We all ate together, and after dinner, each of us took a bath.
Afterwards, we talked about the direction I thought it would be better to take in the future after seeing how Eleanor and Maria fought today and considering their cooperation, as well as my own suggestions on how to strengthen Maria.
After we finished our serious conversation, we started chatting and the three of us shared the joy that our ranks would be raised when we went to report to the adventurer’s guild tomorrow.
When we realized that it was getting late, we went to our own beds and fell into a deep sleep.
