Also, even if Honesta happened to see me using it one day, as long as it will be far in the future, at the point where I managed to become a legitimate Adventurer, then me having those Movement Magic Skills would not be cheating, even if I cheated my way into obtaining them.

Anyway, with our current batch of shopping done, we went through the Warp portal and drop it off at home again, only to come back the way we came a minute later so that w could shop for other things and then bring them home without delay. We went back and forth between the Adventurers Guild and our new home at the edge of Quratar for a number of times, each time bringing something different back with us: kitchenware, cleaning tools, various daily necessities, buckets for collecting water and jugs meant exclusively for drinking water… you name it, we got it.

「Phew, we actually bought quite a lot of stuff, but is that everything? We didn’t forget about anything, did we?」

「No, I think we should have everything we needed for the time being. With that said, now I will be off to bring water from the river.」

The water meant for cleaning the dirty clothes, general cleaning purposes and toileting is supposed to be kept in a tub, the one meant for drinking is to be stored in a water tank, and there is also the toilet contraption and its separate water container, so if Roxanne wanted to bring enough water to last us for all of those purposes, then she would have to make a number of trips back and forth, which is going to be hellishly inconvenient for her. Thankfully, with me and my amazing magic, there won’t be a need for us to waste so much time on this mundane task.

「Wait, Roxanne, wait. Easy on the throttle there. You don’t have to go for the water.」

「I don’t have to? How so?」

Hoo boi, it is exactly as I have expected. Roxanne totally misunderstood my intention when it comes to the water and the ways of procuring it.

「Roxanne, there is no need for you to bother yourself with getting water on your own. I can create it using my Water Magic, remember? And since I can do it, there is no need for us to go to the well at all.」

「Really? That’s good to hear, but… are you really sure about that, master? I heard that generating enough water for usage in the household chore is quite a… chore in and out of itself?」

「Oh, I am sure that normally it would be a  ginormous pain in the ass, but with you by my side, even that should be no problem at all.」

「Uhm… as long as you’re fine with me, master, then I guess I don’t have to worry about it. Above anything else, I want to be of as much use to you as I possibly can.」

「That’s great to hear. And also, likewise.」

「So, what would you like to do now, master?」

「I was thinking of going to the Veil’s Labyrinth for a bit again since I have used so much MP today.」

I said while brandishing Durandal.

「Is that okay with you?」

「Yes, of course.」

Now that I have established so many connections for teleportation with Warp, we can jump straight to the Labyrinth without the need to go to its entrance on foot every single time, which is very convenient for us. Less walking means more time we can spent hunting monsters and exploring, and that will always be good.

「Okay, now that we’re here, let’s look for some monsters that would make an easy prey so that I can get back all of that MP I expended.」

Admittedly, that Warp we did just now made me feel a little sick, so slaying some monsters would definitely be welcomed right now. Anything to prevent myself from being flooded by negative emotions again.

「Right, I am all right with that, of course, but… but could you give me my equipment, master?」

「Ah, that? Do not worry about it. We are only going to hunt a few monsters this time, just enough for me to replenish my MP reserves, so there won’t be any need for you to step onto the fray…」

「That is absolutely out of the question! Even though you are saying that we are only going to kill a few monsters, we are still in the Labyrinth, a place where anything can happen at any given time, so you always have to be ready for anything! On that account, my equipment, please!」

Oh wow, look at her getting all angry with me all of a sudden.

「O-Okay, got it. Here you go.」

Somewhat bewildered by Roxanne’s outburst, I handed the Scimitar, as well as the Leather Breastplate, Helmet and Gloves to her. I really don’t understand what’s gotten into her now. I thought it was already firmly established that we are stronger than the monsters on the Labyrinth’s 3^rd floor, so in my honest opinion there would be absolutely no harm in Roxanne sitting this round of monster slaying out, but if she is so insistent on doing it anyway, it will be better for me to just go along with her request, even though I find it to be annoying.

That being said, I cannot deny that Roxanne and her keen sense of smell are pretty convenient to have around, because with her, we found the necessary amount of monsters needed to restore my MP rather quickly, making his particular excursion to the Labyrinth an extremely short one. Although, I cannot stop myself from thinking that going all the way to Veil’s Labyrinth just so that I could replenish my lost MP feels more than a little inefficient.

After returning back home, we took all of the jugs we bought earlier into the room with the drain so that I could fill them all up with water. I then used Water Wall and waited until the water I created in this way would naturally fall into the jugs so that it could be safely stored.

「Roxanne, move them closer to one another, please. While we are at it, maybe we should add a few buckets as well?」

I said when the first Water Wall run out of its time and the water fell down, splashing a lot of itself around without going into the jugs. So yeah, now we know that using this method we can store water in containers and that they are sturdy enough to withstand the weight of the falling water when the Water Wall dissipates, but now it would be good if we could do something about all the water that splashes around them without landing in the buckets and jugs, therefore ending up being wasted as a result.

Since I am able to use my MP freely, at the very least I don’t have to worry about the delays between the consecutive usage of Water Magic, so maybe I should try casting Water Wall, or perhaps Water Ball directly into the desired containers, but I don’t know if that would be such a great idea. We know for a fact that the jugs, and probably buckets as well will withstand the magic when its applied to them from the outside, but using the magic directly inside of them would probably cause them to break due to all of the excessive force. Not to mention that I have to look out for my MP consumption, because if I end up using too many spells then we will have to make another trip to the Labyrinth so that I could get my MP back, and that would be straight up counterproductive, what with all of the preparations of the equipment if Roxanne kept on insisting on assisting me and all.

「Is that enough water for the time being?」

「Yes, it is more than enough. I will use this water to clean then.」

After using Water Wall several more times to give Roxanne enough water to fill all of the jugs and buckets, Roxanne stood up and carried the bucket, which was only about 75% filled away with her.

「Alright, so while you’re  busy cleaning, then maybe I will go to the Labyrinth here in Quratar to get the admission fee business over with. Sounds like a plan?」

「Yes, of course. Have a safe trip, master.」

With Roxanne on the cleaning duty, I made all of the preparations and then set up another Warp portal on the house’s wall. Contrary to the Labyrinth of Veil, I won’t have to use up as much my MP to Warp to Quratar’s Labyrinth. Since it is right in the city’s center I guess I could technically go there by foot, but now that I have awakened to the wonders of Warping, I don’t think getting back into the habit of going somewhere by using my own two feet is going to be that easy.
