Journey to Planar World

The person who greeted him was a beautiful girl, resembling a delicate doll.

She had long, silvery-white hair and light purple pupils with a beautiful gleam. She wore a uniform with white as its main color, and her legs were covered in white knee-high socks.

Charlie recognized the girl in front of him. Perhaps almost no one didn’t know her.

Airmid Teasanare alias Dea Saint. Despite being only Level 2, her reputation was no less famous than that of a First-Class Adventurer. The public acknowledged her as the best Healer in the world, as well as the best potion maker in Orario. In addition, she was also skilled in developing antidotes and had successfully created medicine capable of counteracting curses.

If Airmid claimed to be the second best Healer in the world, no one would dare claim the first position.

”Are you Charlie Avalon from the Hera Familia?”

Airmid also recognized Charlie at a glance.

”It’s an honor to be recognized by Dea Saint.”

”No need to be formal, we’re both Level 2. You’re a hot topic of conversation among many people these days, and your appearance is very recognizable. I heard my friends talking about you.”

Since there were no other customers in the store, Airmid wanted to chat for a while.

”Do you still have Dual Potions?”

”Yes, we do. How many would you like?”

”30 pieces.”

”That’s a lot. Are you using them all for yourself?”

”That’s right. You know I’m the only member of the Hera Familia in Orario.”

”...”

Airmid looked at Charlie in astonishment. This was the first time she had served a customer who bought so many potions for their own use.

Usually, adventurers bought potions in large quantities as supplies for Dungeon expeditions. Normally, adventurers forming small parties would only buy a few potions.

No wonder Charlie’s abnormal behavior made Airmid curious.

Suppressing her curiosity, Airmid prepared the requested potions and placed them on the table.

”30 pieces Dual Potions, that’s a total of three hundred thousand valis.”

”Here’s the money.”

Opening his Space-Time Cache, Charlie took out the valis and stored the Dual Potions.

”Charlie, aren’t you buying any Recovery Potions or Elixirs?”

Seeing the two about to leave, Airmid was confused why the other party wasn’t buying Recovery Potions or Elixirs, which were mandatory items to bring when entering the Dungeon. After all, fighting monsters could result in injuries and death if those injuries weren’t treated.

”No need. See you later, Airmid.”

Without turning around, Charlie waved his hand, and his other hand held Aishia’s. Both of them left.

”What a strange person... Wait... How can such a small bag hold 30 pieces Dual Potions?”

Only now did Airmid realize she had missed something important. Earlier, she had only focused on Charlie buying a large number of Dual Potions and hadn’t paid much attention to anything else.

After recalling the previous scene, she clearly saw Charlie putting the Dual Potions into a small bag, which shouldn’t have been able to hold that many items.

❀❀❀

After leaving the Dian Cecht Familia’s Shop, Charlie and Aishia bought a large amount of food, drinks, etc., and stored everything in the Space-Time Cache, which had a capacity of 50 cubic meters.

The Space-Time Cache was a magic artifact that created a semi-permanent isolated dimension. Time was stopped inside the Cache, so food could be preserved. In other words, when the food was taken out of the Cache, it would be in the same condition as before it was stored. So there was no need to worry about the food going bad.

Taking advantage of this, Charlie bought freshly cooked food, unlike other adventurers who would buy dried food or ingredients for cooking if they wanted to enter the Dungeon.

After an hour of preparing supplies, Charlie didn’t go straight to the Dungeon. Instead, he secretly left Orario by flying in an invisible mode.

For High-Class Adventurers, they needed permission from the Guild if they wanted to leave Orario.

Charlie didn’t like troublesome bureaucracy, so he bypassed it without hesitation.

He and Aishia flew for 30 minutes and landed in a meadow.

”Well then, let’s have a light sparring session. We need to get to the Dungeon before noon, so let’s keep it short.”

”Okay.”

Charlie and Aishia stood ten meters apart, facing each other.

Their goal of finding a place without anyone was for sparring. Charlie wanted to test Aishia’s combat abilities before the upcoming Dungeon expedition.

”When this stone hits the ground, the sparring begins. Are you ready?” Charlie took a stone and said lightly.

”Yes.” Aishia nodded.

Seeing her ready, Charlie gently threw the stone upwards.

The stone drew a parabolic line through the air before landing on the ground.

After that, Aishia disappeared.

Actually, she had already moved in front of Charlie in a flash. At the same time, her arm extended to grab him by his clothes.

’So fast! I underestimated her because she’s a woman, huh.’

Charlie’s eyes widened in shock before his hand moved reflexively. He dodged Aishia’s hand while stepping back.

*WHOOSH*

Aishia closed the gap between them quickly, launching a skillful attack. With a combination of tricks, her hands and feet moved towards Charlie at a terrifying speed.

The force behind one punch would be enough to cause damage if it hit.

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*

However, Charlie could still smoothly dodge every attack.

’Her attacks are so familiar... So that’s it, Aishia is imitating my movements! If I remember correctly, Aishia also imitated Rio’s movements in the original work.’ Charlie thought seriously.

Seeing that Aishia’s close-combat techniques were consistent with his own style, Charlie immediately knew the reason. It was likely that Aishia had learned his techniques through his memories, considering she knew all his memories, including his previous life.

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*

*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*

For a while, Aishia continued to launch her attacks on Charlie, before suddenly changing her attack pattern. She stepped back for a moment and created distance between them, then used Wind Spirit Art to accelerate her movements.

”Physical Enchant.”

”Wind Divine Protection.”

Charlie channeled a large amount of Essence from within himself to enhance the effects of his physical enhancement and further sharpen his senses while increasing his speed. As Aishia approached him, he could barely understand Aishia’s movements with his sharp senses.

*WHOOSH*

Suddenly, Aishia swung her palm towards him, but Charlie pushed it away and moved his outstretched palm sideways at the same time. He then aimed to make Aishia lose her balance and used that momentum to lightly throw her.

Aishia’s eyes widened, but she gracefully flipped in the air to land deftly on the ground, then turned around to continue attacking once again.

*WHOOSH*

”Enough, Aishia! I have a good assessment of your abilities now!” Charlie stopped the sparring and activated his Spirit Art.

Aishia froze in place.

”I couldn’t land a single blow. Charlie dodged all my attacks.”

”Don’t make a disappointed expression. After all, my experience is richer than yours. Otherwise, I would have been caught long ago. However, your raw power is greater than mine even though I’m Level 2.”

Charlie patted Aishia’s head to comfort her.

Through this short sparring session, he had determined Aishia’s strength. Relying only on raw power, her physical strength was equivalent to a Level 4 adventurer. That didn’t include the use of Spirit Arts, which would provide a qualitative increase.

”Let’s go back to Orario.”

”Mhm.”

The two flew through the air towards Orario.

All preparations were complete. It was time to begin the Dungeon expedition.
