Having reached 1,000 Excelia points, Nano said I was ready to cultivate. When I asked how long it would take, she told me I would need to do it for 10 hours.
'10 hours is a long time.'
She also said that as I level up, the time required to cultivate for the next level increases. According to her, going from "level 2" to "level 3" would take an entire day.
I wish it could be faster.
'I thought cultivation wouldn't take long and that I could do it inside the dungeon, but I need to leave and find a suitable place.'
Now I miss that room. I had a lot of peace there and could cultivate all day.
I need to get a house or something like that. Maybe there's an abandoned place in Daedalus Street? There are many houses and locations there that seem abandoned. If I find an empty place, I can use it.
In the worst case, I'll have to rent somewhere. I think I have enough money for that. I have 20,000 Valis saved, plus some magic stones and items to sell. I could probably afford a few months if I rent a small place.
Maybe it would even be more appropriate to stay at an inn for now. The price shouldn't be too high in an area far from the city center.
I looked at the partially mapped fourth floor and said to Nano:
'Nano, I'm going back now. Reinforce my legs as much as possible so I can run quickly.'
[Understood. Reinforcing lower limbs.]
[Applying temporary increase in energy flow to the legs, muscle optimization, and reduced impact on joints.]
[Estimated speed increased by 42%.]
[You may run now. Return route is already being projected.]
Nano was kind enough to create the best route out of there. I stored my knife and started running. I moved at high speed—much faster than normal. I ignored all adventurers and monsters along the way.
I quickly reached the third floor and passed through the remaining floors just as fast.
When I left the dungeon, I stopped running and took a deep breath.
'Even I got tired after that.'
After stretching a bit, I headed toward the poorer part of the city. I asked Nano to analyze the surroundings and find an inn. All the buildings looked very similar, and there were no signs.
After some time, I found one.
As soon as I entered, I saw it was a very simple inn. It didn't have a restaurant or a bar like a typical fantasy-world inn. They didn't even serve food there.
The receptionist, a woman in her fifties, greeted me.
She looked quite unmotivated, as if she didn't like her job.
"The room is 600 Valis per night. You won't find a better price around here. If you pay 2,000 more, you'll get a special visit during the night."
Hearing that, I was surprised.
Is this an inn or a brothel?
Judging by the price, I don't think the women here would be particularly attractive. Besides, I don't want to risk catching any disease.
[Don't worry, I can handle that for you.]
Hearing that, I paid the extra 2,000 Valis. She smiled and then led me to my room.
'Wait, since I agreed to receive a visit tonight, I won't be able to cultivate now. I'm a idiot.'
I was thinking with the wrong head.
At least I hope it's worth it.

As soon as night fell, someone knocked on my door. My heart started beating a little faster—the last time I did something like this was with Alicia many days ago. It's been a while since I've interacted with a woman as well.
I can't act weird.
When I opened the door, I was surprised by a woman who was unexpectedly beautiful. She was definitely over 30, but incredibly attractive—it was almost unbelievable.
The woman, who had light-colored eyes, smiled at me and said, "I'm here to take care of you tonight. I hope I'll be good enough." She lowered her head. What kind of training did she go through?
She seemed completely submissive.
"You're more than enough. You're extremely beautiful," I said with a smile, extending my hand.
She took my hand, and I noticed it was very warm. I also noticed a blush on her face. 'Is she embarrassed?' I wondered.
As soon as I closed the door, I turned back and saw her sitting on my bed with her hands on her knees. She was wearing very casual clothes—a simple beige long-sleeve shirt and black pants.
She looked at me with a flushed face and then began to remove her clothes.
She slowly took off her shirt. The bra she was wearing was black and very seductive.
'I hadn't noticed before, but her breasts are large. Bigger than Alicia's.'
With my face heating up, I approached the bed and started taking off my pants. When the woman saw the bulge in my underwear, her eyes widened. "It's big…" she murmured as she stared.
I smiled and said, "Your breasts are beautiful."
She smiled shyly and held her chest, now free from her bra. Her nipples were hard and an incredibly soft pink. "You can play with them if you want." She moved them slightly and pinched her own nipples.
My dick reacted immediately, growing even harder.
I licked my lips as she lay down on the bed.
I moved over her and, looking into her eyes, said, "I have a lot of energy, so you won't be leaving anytime soon."
"I like men with a lot of energy," she replied with a lustful smile. Her shy expression had disappeared.
I thought about kissing her, but didn't—she's a prostitute, after all.
She might have been with another man before me.
She noticed that and said, "Don't worry, it's been a few days since I last did this. That's why I'm so excited."
She didn't seem to be lying. So it should be fine to kiss her, right?
'I'm going to have a lot of fun tonight.'
