Although I Am Only Level 1, but with This Unique Skill, I Am the Strongest

Inside the middle of the mansion, Aurum was tightly hugging me.

Though she’s just a small girl, but Aurum’s body was soft everywhere, and it made me strangely excited.

 

Luckily Aurum was quiet for the entire journey when walking back home.
If she started talking to me, she might’ve seen through that I was excited the entire time.

 

Thus, somehow managing to not show my excitement, I went into the premises of the mansion and walked inside the entrance.

 

[We’re here.] (Ryouta)

[Un……] (Aurum)

 

Aurum had a reluctant face when she slowly let herself down from my back.

Would it have been better if I were to carry her all the way to the Teleportation Door?

 

Such thoughts went through my mind.

 

[Ryouta-san, welcome home.]

 

Elza came out from the back of the mansion.

 

[Hey Elza, so you’ve finally came.] (Ryouta)

[Yes! I was carrying the master lock.
So I’ll also be staying here from now on.] (Elza)

[Please continue taking care of me from now on too.] (Ryouta)

[Yes! And also….About that…….] (Elza)

[Hm?] (Ryouta)

[I’ll, soon move out again.] (Elza)

[Moving out again? Are you going to some other city?] (Ryouta)

[Aaaahh! I, it’s not like that!?] Elza hurriedly placed her hands in front and shook.

 

[It’s not that, it’s just that the place where I’m staying currently is kinda far from this mansion.
As it seemed like it would be some time that I’ll be sent to Ryouta-san’s place, so I’m going to move to a closer place from here.]

 

Elza hurriedly explained her reasoning all at once.

She was previously a staff at the , but due to our Family’s earning growing immensely, she was sent as a representative of that shop to come and help us count our earnings.

Thus, the reason why she moved was because her work place was far away.

 

[What’s more…..I’ll be near Ryouta-san’s side…..] (Elza)

[Nn?] (Ryouta)

[It, it’s nothing!] Again Elza hurriedly shook her head as she waved her hands.

 

I can’t really hear what she’d said at the last part but…..I was thinking.

 

If that was the reason why she wanted to move then, all the more.

 

[Elza, if you’re fine with it, how about just staying here with us?] (Ryouta)

[Eh?] (Elza)

[As you can see we still have extra rooms available.
It’s not likely that it’ll be occupied for awhile.
So if Elza’s fine——] (Ryouta)

[Is it really alright for me to stay here!] Elza cut my words before I could say with a delighted face.

 

[Of course.
It’s different if it was someone else, but Elza is special.] (Ryouta)

[Ee,ehmmm, Special?] (Elza)

[It’s not like we’re strangers or something, and you’re good friends with Emily and the rest.] (Ryouta)

[Special….He said that I’m special…..] Elza grabbed her hands and looked at me with teary eyes.

 

[How about it?] (Ryouta)

[Please take care of me from now on!] (Elza)

[Yeah, well then…..how should we deal with the rooms, maybe it’s better to ask Emily about it.
Perhaps Emily had already completely dominated this entire mansion.] (Ryouta)

[I’ll ask Emily-san about it, for now I’ll bring along my luggage!!] (Elza)

[Uhh, you don’t really have to rush…..Aah she’d already ran off.] (Ryouta)

 

While looking at the back of Elza with the speed that could rival that of adventurers, she ran off like the wind.

Guess she was happy about it, I’m glad.

 

[So good….I’m jealous.]

[Nn?] (Ryouta)

 

Aurum seemed to be talking to herself.

 

[What’s wrong Aurum——Wait what the heck!] (Ryouta)

 

The moment I turned around I was surprised.

Aurum who was piercing glances at me, was throwing out Gold Dust from her mouth.

Blueegh, as the shiny Gold Dust slowly came out from her mouth.

 

[What is that even Aurum.] (Ryouta)

[Eh? What is?] (Aurum)

[What do you mean what, you have Gold(saliva?<きむ>) coming out from your mouth.] (Ryouta)

 

“What are you even saying?” was what came out from my mouth, because it was such a scene I can’t help but say it.

 

[Eeh—–Aah you’re right.] (Aurum)

[You’re right, wait so you didn’t notice it at all?] (Ryouta)

 

Aurum wiped the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand.

The Gold Dust stopped coming out for now, but really, what happened to her?

 

[Are you alright? Are you not feeling well or something?] (Ryouta)

 

She was the Spirit of the Dungeon, so maybe the fact that she had came out from the dungeon for a long time caused her to have symptoms?

I thought that maybe I should bring her home for now.

 

[Hey Ryouta, that person, who’s that?] (Aurum)

[That person? Oh you meant Elza?] (Ryouta)

[So that’s what she’s called.] (Aurum)

[Hmmm, even if you asked who she is, she’s a person I know from work, And also—-] (Ryouta)

 

I was suddenly reminded of the kiss scene with Elza.

It was a surprise one-time kiss.

Suddenly thinking about me, made my ears red and my face heating up.

 

[……And then?] (Aurum)

[She’s someone that took care of me when I was new.] (Ryouta)

[Fuuun.
I see……] Aurum placed her hands on her cheeks, and was thinking of something.

 

Is her condition alright? Is it fine if she doesn’t go back to the dungeon?

As I was thinking.

 

[Ryouta-san.]

[Ah, Celeste.] (Ryouta)

This time it was Celeste that greeted me.

Seemed that she just came back from outside as she walked inside the mansion and she was holding some sort of book and some papers.

 

[Welcome back.
What’s with all that stuff you’re carrying?] (Ryouta)

[I just came back from the Library.
I have summarized everything about Shikuro’s Dungeon and their specialties.] (Celeste)

[Everything you say?] (Ryouta)

[Yes.
Weren’t we able to go to all of the floors thanks to Eve? That’s how I was doing it.] (Celeste)

[Ah, so you’re carrying that home to study more.
Sorry for always relying on you.] (Ryouta)

[No no, this is different.
I’ve already memorized all of the information.
These are reference books for summarizing that information.] (Celeste)

[To summarize?] (Ryouta)

[Yes! The Ryouta Family often does individual activities right.
Hence a booklet? Or something smaller than that so I could hand it to everyone to review when they’re going for an adventure alone.] (Celeste)

 

She continued explaining.
I didn’t know she was that considerate of us.

 

[Thanks again Celeste.
I’ll have to find some way to thank you.] (Ryouta)

[…..It’s alright if you don’t give me anything.
It’s because I love to do it thus I’m doing it.] (Celeste)

[Yeah but still——-Mmm.] (Ryouta)

 

My lips were being touched.
Celeste pressed her index finger against my lips and mischievously laughed. (TLN: GAH SO ADORABLE AND SEXY!)

 

[I love to do it, so it’s okay.] as she said that she laughed again.
She was originally a beautiful lady, but she was turning way more beautiful and it made me skipped a beat.

 

[This person too…….?] (Aurum)

[Oh that’s right Ryouta-san, This girl……Uwaa! Her mouths leaking something out!] (Celeste)

 

Celeste shouted, and had a surprised look as she saw Aurum.

I too turned to look at Aurum, as she was throwing out Gold from her mouth again.

 

[Aurum! You’re throwing up Gold again!] (Ryouta)

[Eh? Aah——] (Aurum)

 

Again Aurum used her back of her hands to wipe away the corner of her mouth.

Finally she stopped vomiting Goldust, and I turned to celeste and explained.

 

[This girl’s Aurum, it’s the Spirit of Aurum Dungeon.] (Ryouta)

[So it’s the same as Arsenic’s Spirit.] (Celeste)

[Yeah.
Similar to how I met her, she said that she wanted to go out, and since we had that Teleportation Door, I thought of bringing Aurum out for sightseeing in the streets of Shikuro.] (Ryouta)

[That’s why she was vomiting out Gold…..] (Celeste)

[Ah, I was surprised by that too.
Previously, this never happened.] (Ryouta)

 

What is happening to Aurum.

 

[Excuse me.]

 

Another voice was heard, and this time it was a guest.

The main entrance of the door opened, and Margaret and her Knights were standing in front of the door.

Margaret let herself in, and the Knights remained outside the mansion while gently closing the door.

Margaret that let herself in walked straight towards me, and smiled gracefully.

 

[Congratulations on your moving to a different house.] (Margaret)

[So you’ve heard about it.
I wanted to inform you after everything was stable over here.] (Ryouta)

[As of right now, Ryouta・Family is a huge news that’s being talked about in Shikuro, the gossips had already passed through my ears.] (Margaret)

[Is that so.] (Ryouta)

I could not help but bitterly smiled.
It was a bit frustrating to have rumours about us.

 

[This is indeed a nice mansion.
It’s warm and gentle.
It really portrays the traits of the owner.] (Margaret)

[I’m happy for that compliment, but the warmth and gentleness isn’t from me but from the works of Emily.] (Ryouta)

[Ryouta-san is always so modest with himself.] (Margaret)

 

After saying that, she gently brought my body with her.

She did not hug me, but instead dive onto my body.

 

Her body was small and soft, and she smelled really good.

As she was rubbing her head against me, the smell became stronger.

 

[I love that part about you too.] (Margaret)

[I, is that so.] (Ryouta)

[Oh by the way, it’s my first time seeing someone throwing out goldust.] (Margaret)

[That’s true, it is Aurum’s first time—–wait dust!?] (Ryouta)

 

This was the third time looking at Aurum, for some reason she had a jealous look on her face but the fact that she was vomiting out Goldust.

Wait but….but why?

 

[Are you sure you’re alright, Aurum?] (Ryouta)

[Uuuu…….] (Aurum)

[The complexion of your face doesn’t look alright.
Let’s go home for now.
Celeste, I’ll send her back now, so could you guide Margaret to the reception room, and also ask Emily to whip up something for our guest.] (Ryouta)

[Okay, I got it.] (Celeste)

 

Celeste gently smiled as she nodded and brought Margaret.

I took Aurum who was still biting daggers at me to the basement.

I changed her into a Gold Bar, and brought her back to the dungeon.

 

Was what I thought as I was bringing her, but Aurum was sharply gazing at me.

Her eyes seemed to be frustrated, and I couldn’t move.

 

[Wh, what’s the matter Aurum.] (Ryouta)

[Hey, the girls before.] (Aurum)

[Eh?] (Ryouta)

[What are they to Ryouta?] (Aurum)

[What are they….what is?] (Ryouta)

[You know what I’m saying, there are those couples who come to the dungeon while singing out loud, and kissing while embracing each other.] (Aurum)

 

Dokin!

 

Aurum who had a long history of dungeons wasn’t stupid.
Contrary to not only understanding it, but she remembered it as well.

Not counting Celeste, it’s true that Elza and Margaret once kissed me.

 

[I knew it, they’ve done it before.] (Aurum)

[That is….well…..] (Ryouta)

 

Muack.

 

[………EH?] (Ryouta)

 

Before I could say anything, Aurum tipped her toe and kissed me.

[Wh, why?] (Ryouta)

[…………….] (Aurum)

 

Aurum did not answer.

Instead she looked extremely embarrassed yet she glance at me with an angry red face.

After looking at that kind of expression.

 

[See ya!] after saying so, she turned herself to a Gold Bar.

 

[………..]

 

I was left alone in the basement for a while.

 

☆

 

After returning Aurum to the dungeon, I came to Teruru Dungeon using the Teleportation Room.

 

Reason why was because Emily asked me to pick up some pumpkins as she wanted to serve cake to Margaret.

My head was still confused by Aurum but I stopped thinking and went to the third floor of Teruru.

 

Though I arrived, I mind was still confused.

I kept thinking about the kiss from Aurum.

 

It didn’t feel bad honestly, Aurum is cute to begin with, she’s gotten way cuter after coming out from the dungeon.

I can’t say that it didn’t bring pleasure when being kissed by Aurum.

 

Next time I’ll talk about it from her.

 

Trying to change my mind, I chose to hunt monsters.

The monsters that dropped Pumpkins, the Cockroach Slimes.

The Slime’s body crawled all away the floor reminiscent of a certain letter G living hell. (TLN: burn it..burn it all to hell)

 

I don’t particularly hate it, but it didn’t feel good either, so I defeated it with Repetition so as not to touch it.

 

The Cockroach Slimes that was knocked down dropped the Pumpkins.

The ordered Pumpkins from Emily, and also another item.

 

Gold Dust was dropped together.

 

[…….Huh?] (Ryouta)

 

Why Goldust? Isn’t this a drop from Aurum Dungeon?

 

Perhaps it was the thing that Aurum spewed out from her body just now?

I thought so as I used another Repetition on another Cockroach Slime.

 

Afterwards, along side with the Pumpkin, a Gold Dust dropped.

 

[What the heck is happening……Ah.] (Ryouta)

 

I remembered the kiss from Aurum.

In my head, the word floated.
