Earth-san Level Up Volume 2 Chapter 12 Part 2 (Patreon)

The time was 11:30 AM

There was still plenty of time to spare, as they had been active early in the morning, but they wanted to find the safety zone as soon as possible. It was halfway up the mountain, and Meiko thinks it could have been anywhere else.

Whatever the case, right now, they were at the summit.

"Whew, that's just a spectacular view."

"The clouds look like we could swim in them, Deuce!"

"Ruru, no."

"I won't do it, nuh-uh."

The three of them stood side by side, staring at the sea of clouds surrounding the dungeon that stretched beyond the horizon.

They always said that climbing a mountain with a group of friends strengthens your bond, and Meiko was feeling it.

A sense of accomplishment filled her chest, knowing that the three of them had done it together.

But this was still the halfway point of the road.

There was another way down from where they had ascended the mountain.

And there was another mountain that they had yet to set foot on.

Normally, I should not feel a sense of accomplishment, but the situation at the top of the mountain made that happen.

So, for the moment, they decided to enjoy the feeling.

The three of them enjoyed the spectacular view and took photos for Winsta.

Fortunately, no enemies appeared, and they were able to take a good rest.

It was just about lunchtime, so they decided to eat some food.

When it was time to move on, the three of them stood side by side at the base of a Sakura tree.

"It's a great tree, let's pray to it."

"Yes, we should. It looks like a powerful tree."

"Meow! Nippon has gods for everything, right? Nyaororozu desu!"

"If you say it like that, then there are over eight million gods, right?"

"Yaororozu?"

"Too many ro's!"

"I don't want to hear that from Sharla."

"Oh, my!"

""eow-o-yo-yo-joo!

"Yaororozo, nope. Yao yoyo ...... nyao ...... nnnn! Ho, ho, anyway, Ruru, will you pray for us!"

Meiko's cheeks relaxed at their exchange.

Then the three of them joined hands.

"May we get out of the dungeon safely!"

"I'm going on a great adventure with Meiko! Please watch over us!"

"Please watch over us!"

And then, something happened.

The base of the cherry tree glowed and a treasure chest appeared.

"I didn't expect a hidden factor!"

"Ma! A present from Sakura-san!"

"Oh, you're so cool, Sakura-san!"

Ha, shoot!

Meiko was ashamed of herself for making a game-like remark in response to her pure partners' comments. This was the difference in girl power!

Anyhow, a treasure chest was found.

Meiko, the treasure chest junkie, opened the cover.

Inside was a blue crystal about 20 cm long.

When she picked it up and looked at it closely, she found a single cherry blossom inside.

It was a nice ornament by itself, but Meiko thought, wondering what it was, used a crystal to check it.
