VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

There weren\'t many guests in this inn in the first place, so the two of them and Miss Rin were chatting while they had a morning coffee as Misha cleaned up the place.

They knew what had happened yesterday and they were inside all the time it was happening.

Misha was still a teenager so she did not have any experiences of her town being attacked, but as someone who had lived a long, difficult life in many towns and cities, she knew how getting attacked by external forces felt.

She was worried when the two of them came back. This was her first experience with something like this, so she thought the sister that had saved them from those thugs and the brother with that slime would have gotten hurt.

But thankfully that was not the case.

"Thankfully, we are fine. Though, it has been a long night and we are exhausted."

"Oh, then do you want to take a bath? Should I prepare some warm water for you?"

"Oh. That would be great."

She made some coffee for the two of them and since their relationship with the inn owner and her daughter had improved so much, they could now use the kitchen however they wanted.

They were already tired, so taking a bath and having a nap was going to be great.

\'The Mayor will make the announcements in the evening.\'

A while has passed since the battle and the cleanup process was finished as well, the contribution calculation should have been done as well… but since the nature of the quest this time was unique, the contribution will only be revealed when the Mayor announces his own rewards and thanks.

So until then, they wanted to sleep.

"I want to… yawnnnnn~. Just lay down and sleep."

Sleep was an important part of the game, just like real life.

One can overdose on caffeine and block the sleep for a while but there is no way to completely stop sleeping.

One needed to sleep to keep functioning well in this game as well or else they would be debuffed.

"Madam Rin, we shall take our leave now."

"I will be there shortly."

She could see the exhaustion in their eyes and in their movements.

She could tell they must have run around quite a lot, used many magic items and spells and were exposed to the dark energy for a long time.

She understood the severity of their situation but she was aware of their nature. Both of them were extremely unique individuals.

And seeing how they were caring around a dangerous mana beast inside of a Mana slime as well, she could not help but be more interested in this young couple.

"Yaaaaawn~."

"You\'re tired as well, hun?"

"Nah. We can still have some fun in the bath if you want."

"Crazy bastard."

They weren\'t going to have any fun today anymore.

Perhaps at night, in reality, but not here.

Here, she will sleep. And he will cry… she knew that, and she wasn\'t going to come between him and his tears.

He could cry however much he wanted while cuddling me, but she was going to sleep.

After using that Crimson sword on that dark magic circle, she had no stamina left in her.

If he knew how she was surviving on negative stamina right now, he would be shocked and drag her to some clinic for a detailed checkup.

"Good night then…"

She just laid down on the bed as soon as they were in their room.

And, just a moment later… she had fallen asleep.

"Miu?"

"Muuuu?"

Both Az and Miu were confused why she suddenly fell asleep like that, but Elio knew just how exhausted she had been.

He had seen her falling asleep out of the blue like this in the real world before, but this was his first time seeing it in the game.

"Good night, Miss Twinkle."

But he was familiar with it, so it did not come as a big surprise to him.

He just laid off beside her on their bed… and strangely, he also fell asleep.

-Knock! Knock!

"Excuse me."

Miss Rin came without receiving permission, hoping to see some steamy young stuff… but she only found two exhausted people peacefully sleeping together.

It was a better view than what she had expected, but it was pure.

So with a warm smile on her face, she just left the two young ones alone and left their room, closing it as gently as she had opened it, without making any sound At All.

"Muuu?"

"Miu."

The little slime and gecko were confused what to do now, and they knew letting the gecko out would be dangerous, so Az asked miu to get inside of him, and the two jumped out of the room.

Since Alex and Elio were sleeping, they did not have anything to do here. And since they didn\'t need to rest as much as them, they were free to do something else.

-Bing. Bing. Bing.

Az had gained some levels after all their trouble today, and so it could live on its own around the safe area.

And it knew some magic as well so they weren\'t going to get in too much trouble if they just stayed inside of the inn.

"Hmmm? What are you doing here?"

But before they could even go around the inn, they were caught coming out of their room by Madam Rin who was still around the corridor.

"Don\'t you want to sleep or something? Or are you two bored just sitting in your room without your friends?"

Miss Rin was pretty interested in the slime already but now that there was a Mana beast inside of this slime as well, she was even more interested in these creatures.

"Muuuu!"

"Miu! Miu!"

"Hmmm?"

She knew the slime was a pretty intelligent one. But the fact that even the Mana beast inside of it was smart enough to respond to her question was a fascinating instance for her.

"Huhu. aren\'t you two interesting?"

She came closer to them and picked the slime gently.

"Want to come help me with some work?"

"Muuu?"

"Miu?"

They were adorable.

Her daughter liked them already, but she was afraid to get close to them since they were creatures and she was still unfamiliar with such beings.

There was no need for her to be afraid of something that was also a creature of Nature, so she wanted them to get closer.

And since they had this chance now, she thought it would be the best time for them to work on this little thing.
