After defeating the Galli clan, I recovered from my hangover and spent a day playing with Belle and Marco, which refreshed me. The effects of defeating the Galli clan will not reach the labyrinth city for a few days, so we can relax and work hard starting today.

"Well, what are we going to do today? I'd like to spend three days in the labyrinth to finish my business, but the problem is Gina and the others. Torque's inn is still busy ......, right?"

I don't think that busyness will return to normal in a few days.

"Yeah, busy as ever. They said they've been very helpful since me and Sara came to help them, but I guess Martha and Kark are still tired. I think we should help them a little more."

Right? It's not that Gina and the others have to help, but we are indebted to Mr. Toruku and the others, and we would like to cooperate with them in any way we can.

...... Hmm? I was happy to have Gina and Sara go to help, but shouldn't you have asked Vita to sneak in and heal them?

Yes, that's the way to be sure. I'll ask Vita to do it tonight. I want to be able to calmly assess what I can do as a spiritualist.

I understand. You can help Mr. Toruku and the others while they are in the labyrinth city this time. Are you going to be able to manage to get more people to help you?"

Well, even if Vita is going to heal you, she's busy, so it would be good to have some help.

"Well, she said she has talked to the commercial guilds, but it seems they can't make a decision. There was some talk about Betty coming in to help out on a temporary basis, but Betty's boss said that was rejected."

Betty's boss made a pretty nice decision. As for Betty, she seems to be after bribes and new menu items anyway. If she is still willing to work for him, she seems to have no problem with it, but she is likely to be eating and drooling over the customers' food. It's just an assumption on my part, but I think Betty's boss made the same decision.

"Well, I guess it's going to take some time."

"Mr. Martha said he's been trying to get a good introduction to someone, so he went to the commercial guild."

If that's the case, I think we'll be able to find someone sooner than expected. Martha has a lot of power.

"I see. Then, Gina and Sara can help for a while, but what about Marco and Kikka? I'm not sure I'd let you two in the labyrinth by yourselves, and I'm not sure I'd want you to go with me. What do Marco and Kikka want to do?"

With the Great Spirit as their escort, it would be possible for Marco and Kikka to explore the labyrinth alone, but two children exploring the labyrinth alone would either make them worry or get tangled up in the labyrinth.

It would be meaningless to take Marco and Kikka to deliver waste materials to the labyrinth core to replenish energy, only to have them reap fire dragons, light dragons, and dark dragons. Instead, the core of the labyrinth will cry.

The safest thing to do would be to make the labyrinth core wait and have me accompany Marco and Kikka, but I feel sorry for them if I make them wait too long. They were quite happy when I told them that I would deliver the waste materials to them. ....... Hmmm... I'm torn.

"Well, it's okay if you go into the labyrinth with me and Kikka. Uri and Mame are there too. ......

"That's no good. What should we do about ......?"

"Yuta, why don't you take him to the Adventurers' Guild and have him learn some bodybuilding techniques?"

When I was worried, Sylphy gave me some advice. But bodybuilding. .......

"Isn't it too early for him?"

"Don't be too overprotective. It's normal for children to learn how to fight at this age. It is better to learn how to move your body when you are a child.

I see. I guess it's OK if you don't use a knife. I think it would be cool to have a hybrid of the genjutsu and the somatic arts for gifted children. I don't have any cheats like I do with my pioneering tools, so I think it's better to have more knowledge and experience.

"Marco, why don't you go to the Adventurer's Guild and learn the basics of the physical arts? It might help when I grow up and learn to use a sword, so it doesn't sound so bad."

"Really! Master, I want to learn bodybuilding!"

He took a huge bite out of it. Since he seems motivated, let's see if we can get him to learn.

"Okay. What about Kikka? Even if it's hard to do bodywork, I'm sure they can teach you how to avoid it, right?"

Kikka will not have time to do anything else, so it will be a good idea to have her learn it all together.

"......Kicka will do her best."

After a little bit of hesitation, Kikka was motivated to do the same. In that case, we should change their equipment. The teachers would not like it if their children were better equipped than they were.

"Okay. Then let's go and learn today."

"Yes!"

"Yeah."

I don't know if I can go out of the blue and find a teacher, but at worst, I can tell the guildmaster and we can work something out. It won't be like the beginner's class I had.

"Master, I and Sara are going to go help you now.

"Yeah, have a good day. Give my regards to Mr. Torque and the others."

Okay. I'll see you later.

"Master, I'm off."

I'm feeling a little nervous, so I'll have Gina and the others go with Dolly. I'll stay out of the labyrinth today, and I'll stay out of the labyrinth with Marco and the others ......, but I'll have Dory go with them tomorrow. I'm being overprotective.

****

"Mr. Yuta, how can I help you today?"

When I went to the Adventurers' Guild after breakfast, the receptionist came running to me as soon as she saw me. VI!? I was treated so awkwardly, or rather, taken care of too much.

VI!" She was too awkward to be treated well. "Well, I've come to ask you to introduce me to a teacher so that my apprentices can learn some body techniques. Can they learn it at the Adventurers' Guild?

"Oh, yes. Yes. Do you need to see the guildmaster?

Yes, it's all right. I'll be escorting them today.

Awe, sir. Please come this way.

The receptionist leads me to the counter. Apparently, they ask you what kind of teacher you want. Since I'm dealing with children, I don't want someone too rough.

"Yes, that's right. If you're interested in bodywork and the preliminary steps of body movement, how about the Muscle Stars? They have just returned, and although they are of A and higher ranks, I am sure Yuta-sama's disciples would be willing to take on the job."

Muscle Star...... never thought I would hear that name under the circumstances. I guess I'll have to reject it for now. If Marco and Kikka become Muscle, I'm sure I'll kill all Muscle Stars.

"Well, I'd appreciate it if you could introduce me to the Muscle Stars, but I'm not sure I'd be comfortable having A-rankers take care of my kids. We would appreciate it if you could introduce us to someone who has a solid foundation and will not overwork the children.

Like a Japanese, he refuses Muscle Star without making a scene. Worldliness is important.

"Is it? I think they would be happy to have a closer relationship with Mr. Yuta. ...... Oh, and what about the Valkyries? They always said they wanted to make amends for the trouble they caused Yuta. I am sure they would be happy to accept your offer."

Why is this receptionist recommending a mine-like partner? How could I ask him to educate my apprentice when I still do my best to avoid Valkyries and others who try to pass me on the street?

I would have accepted it if it were Wings of the Labyrinth or something. They are not muscular, and they seem to have common sense, which makes them very likable.

"No, please, let us not accept really high ranks. It doesn't matter if you are already retired, just someone who is experienced and kid-friendly.

"Awe, sir. Please wait a moment."

I tilted my head as if wondering why she would turn down an A grade, but the receptionist took out a file and started looking for a teacher. Oh, why are Bell and the others looking through the file together?

"I'll look for Belle, too." "Cue," "I'll do my best." "Coo-coo," "I'll find you!" ......"

It appears that Bell and his friends are willing to help us find a teacher. I don't know what criteria they will use to choose a teacher, but they seem to be serious about doing their best for Marco and the others, so we'll just have to wait and see.

"How about this person? He is a B-rated adventurer, but has recently decided to retire and is assisting the guild."

She doesn't look so bad, but the belles are putting up an X next to the receptionist. I don't know, but considering Dine, the intuition of a genie is not to be underestimated. I'll just go along with it.

I decline with a bitter excuse and ask her to introduce me to the next person, but I can't get a decision from Belle and the others. The screening process is quite tough. I'm very sorry to put the receptionist through such a hard time because of the spirit's hazy intuition. But I can't resist the lovely X of the Belles.

"Oh, this one, please."

After turning down several recommendations, Bell and her colleagues finally give a unanimous "0" and I quickly ask for the job. I'm tired of trying to come up with reasons for refusing.

"Let's see, ...... this man was an adventurer who is said to have mastered the martial arts, but he is old and has been out of practice for some time. Are you sure you are okay with this person?"

...... Indeed, the portrait on the side of the document depicts an elderly man, or ...... an old man who looks like a dead tree. I am not sure if he is really okay, but Bell and the others look confident.

"Yes, yes,...... he has accumulated so much experience and has been practicing martial arts for many years. We'd love to have you."

"Awe, sir. Let's go over the schedule. When would you like to schedule your training?"

"Well, I'm sorry to rush you into this, but I'd like to work with you every day for a week starting today."

A week seems short, but I have to go back to the land of the dead, so this will have to do for now. If the teaching is good and Marco and the others like it, ask them to do it again.

The receptionist, perhaps convinced by my words, immediately confirms the schedule and leaves the room. If we find a teacher today and you feel comfortable with him or her, you can enter the labyrinth tomorrow. If possible, I'd like to have them trained today so that I can get some peace of mind as soon as possible.

"Um, Mr. Yuta, the guildmaster wants to see you. He wants to know more about what happened the other day. Could you give him a moment of your time?

While I was sitting idle, leaving the receptionist to check the schedule of Marco and the other teachers, the guildmaster's secretary-like lady came to talk to me.

What happened the other day was about the Marquise de Galli, wasn't it? The guildmasters are involved, and I'm sure they'd like to know the outcome. I'll report it to them.

I'd rather present them with proper information so that they won't be put in a disadvantageous position than be judged by speculations. Even after defeating the Gulli clan, you've been busy with other things.
