After Being Exiled From the Country, I Became the Fourth Enchanter in the World!

Chapter 61 Deciding the Working Hours is up to the Person Themself

Since the issue with Leftover-kun has been settled, we are back to our usual leveling.

Recently, our leveling activity might be equal to that of a black company, so I think the discussion the other day came at the right time to rest our bodies….

But well… all the people involved, including myself, were completely exhausted mentally….

As for Ian, he returned to his original good-looking honor student now that the issue has been settled.

「Air Cutter! Nina, I’ll leave the left side to you. Air Cutter! Air Cutter!」

Even now, he’s nonchalantly aiming at the orc’s throat with his fuel-efficient Air Cutter….

The sight of this refreshingly handsome man taking care of orcs one after another with composure… if the girls in town see him like this, I think they will start a fan club….

「I am going to use a sword!」

In preparation for the orc battle, I prepared enchanted equipment that prioritizes physical systems for Ian.

So, when his MP gets low, he changes to his sword and starts cutting the orc’s throat nonchalantly.

For the orcs, he can only be seen as a demon.

By the way, I’m following Ian’s tactics while using the same equipment that I used during the rank-up exam.

As long as you don’t care about the orcs’ feelings, it’s the most cost-effective strategy where you can get the maximum result with the minimum amount of effort.

The differences between me and Ian are… our roles in the party and whether our magic choice is <Wind Magic> or <Water Magic>.

「I’m going to pick up the materials! Water Wall!」

Since we moved our leveling base to the 15th floor, I have been collecting the materials by myself.

I have the most MP among the three of us, so I can use the Water Wall most easily… and since orc meat is large, it is less time-consuming to collect all of them by myself since I have a large item box.

Even though water magic doesn’t go well against orcs, there aren’t that many orcs who go out of their way to run into the intermediate magic <Water Wall>.

「Take this! Water Ball! Finishing blow!」

Since Nina’s MP is still low, she’s mainly fighting with her sword this time.

Although her swordsmanship is buffed with enchanted equipment, it’s hard for her to aim at the orc’s throat since she’s short, so she takes time slashing at the orc without forcing herself.

…… Hmm?

Nina’s fighting style gives them a long-time pain, so she’s more devilish for them, right…?

「The meat is so good even though the face is disgusting…. Orc General is strange~」

As a result of the discussion between the three of us… we decided to hunt the Orc General between 3:00 pm and 7:00 am, when there are a few adventurers on the 15th floor.

The three of us, who are still growing up, decided to give priority to our desire to eat orc general meat rather than orc meat.

Compared to going around the monster room, the leveling efficiency is lower, but… we might feel stressed if we’re leveling too much, so I think this is fine.

While waiting for the orc general to revive, we’re leisurely doing our own things, such as taking a nap or working.

…… I and Ian use 90% of our time for working and training, and 10% for napping, but… it’s up to each of us to decide whether to take a break or to work….

Occasionally, a group challenging the orc general came to go to the lower floors, so we gave them the right to fight it.

At that time, they gave us a suspicious look, but it couldn’t be helped.

Orc General, a B-rank monster, is a monster that should be challenged by a party of B-rank adventurers.

We’re the abnormal ones who keep hunting it just for the sake of delicious food.

「Ork General’s hot pot is ready~. The sausage and grilled meat are also ready!」

「Thank you for your work, Nina. Then, let’s eat.」

By storing the entire high-class kitchen in my item box, Nina’s cooking repertoire in the labyrinth has increased.

It’s a high-class kitchen that you can find in a mansion of a high-rank noble, so I paid more than 30 gold coins to buy it, but… it’s an expense to eat delicious food, so there’s nothing I can do about it.

「It is delicious. The balance between the fat and the vegetables is just right.」

「The sausage is also juicy and delicious. The pepper and garlic are doing a great job.」

「I bought a new cookbook with the allowance I got the other day, and  I’ve been studying it~ ♪」

Nina’s cooking repertoire grows day by day.

Her Cooking Skill is also growing, so maybe she’ll be better at cooking than the royal palace chef in the near future.

「Enchanter-san, that looks delicious.」

While we were enjoying Nina’s orc general cuisine, we were approached by a group of adventurers.

A group of high-ranked adventurers, all wearing green wristbands….

「If I remember correctly… it was the famous clan <Elder Tree>, was it…?」

「Yes. I am Luke, an S-rank adventurer and the clan master of <Elder Tree>. I am happy to meet the rumored enchanter.」
