Sarios, sword drawn, slashed through a larger blue slime with a grunt. "Hyaah—! These things just keep coming!"

In her mind:
("Hehe… Nari~ You can't resist it, can you?")
☆ Level—☆ N-no, Master. ☆ You—☆ Level 19 acquir—☆ I mean—stop smirking! ☆
Dila chuckled harder in her thoughts, barely able to hold in her laughter. ("Hahaha! System girl's trying to be serious, but EXP won't let her live!")
