Two months after the auction, Clovis and his team had gathered outside their mansion.

"Finally. We are going out again." Erwin smirked. "My skills almost got rusty."

Aileen rolled her eyes. "Well, we have a simple goal this time."

"True." Kanaria nodded in agreement.

Melody explained, "We will be heading to a ruined city. Clean up the city of all the beasts and let Hana take over. At that time, Kanaria will be left behind to supervise the reconstruction, I guess?"

"Yes."

"Then, the rest of the team will go down and kill all the beasts in the underground city. Once we're done, we will scout the area around and see if there are any Tier 7 or Tier 8 beasts near the underground city.

"If everything has been cleared up, we will let the construction company do its job. The rest of the details will be arranged once we reach the place."

They understood the arrangement, considering this wasn't the first time they had reclaimed a city.

"In that case, let's bring in our luggage then." Christina grabbed her bag.

"Ah, wait a moment." Clovis stopped her and the rest of the team. "Let's wait for Hana."

"Hana? Does she have anything to do with this?" Christina was confused, looking at her bags.

Clovis smiled wryly. Fortunately, a bus soon arrived at the mansion.

"Yo!" Hana came out of the bus while waving her hand. "I hope you haven't waited too long."

"Hana? What's going on?" Christina frowned.

Hana pointed at the bus. "Your new bus. It's slightly bigger than your previous bus. I have also attached everything in there. Unlike your previous bus, this one is made over the top. You will definitely like it."

"Oh! You sure?"

"Of course. The recovery pod is also in there, so you don't have to worry about injuries." Hana winked playfully. "And what's better than a new bus?"

Hana smirked while pointing to the back. "Two new buses!"

"!!!" One more bus had been delivered into the entrance.

"You guys already have 11 members, not to mention Reolf, Rea, and Freud. So, one bus must be too small for you. That's why we have two!"

"Why not bring three?" Kanaria glanced at the old bus.

"The old bus can't be compared to this new one." Hana raised one finger. "Because thanks to the previous auction, I have been able to secure even more contacts. You know, people want to get acquainted with me just to get the chance of entering the auction. And so, I use those connections to make a new bus. These are probably the best buses you can find in the country."

Clovis nodded in understanding. "In any case, we need one more bus, maybe as a spare."

"I know, I know. They only have time to make two, so don't you worry. There will be more in the future."

Kanaria shrugged. "Well, it's fine with two buses, I guess."

"So, who will take the first bus and who will take the second?" Christina asked.

"Isn't it obvious?!" Melody smirked. "Let's go, girls! We got the first bus! Finally, we can have the girls' time."

"…" Kanaria and the others exchanged looks.

"I don't mind sharing it with the boys." Rin raised her hand.

"What?" Melody widened her eyes in shock. "What is your reason?"

Rin pointed at the boys. "Look at them. There are only Clovis, Jay, Erwin, and Ragna. Meanwhile, we have 7 people. I want bigger spaces."

Melody smirked. "Heh. Don't you worry about bigger spaces. Because we definitely have bigger ones."

"Right?" Kanaria pointed at Reolf and the others.

"Oh!" Rin almost forgot that they needed to count Reolf and the others. Since the beasts were bigger than normal humans, they would take up much more space.

"…" Clovis and the others were stupefied. Erwin couldn't help but say, "Rea is a girl."

"Of course." Kanaria waved her hand, as if asking Rea to come with them. But Rea was the biggest, so most of the time she was on the roof or inside Another World Mall.

Rea shook her head and turned to Clovis as if asking him to put her in the mall. She could move more freely there, and there was also a pet grooming shop inside.

Clovis shrugged. He just sent her to the mall. "What have you done to scare Rea?"

"What? I haven't done anything." Kanaria was dumbfounded.

Clovis just chuckled.

"Well, it's good that we'll get more space, but who will drive?" Rin asked. "I am probably going to be busy preparing lunch."

"I don't mind driving first. You guys decide who will be driving after me." Christina waved her hand while bringing her luggage to the bus.

Melody and the others were just staring at each other.

On the other hand, Clovis and the boys seemed to have reached a tacit understanding.

"Take turns?"

"Take turns!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"I will be first then." Ragna raised his hand.

"Then, let's see…" Erwin placed his hand on Freud's shoulder. "Take this. We're partying."

Freud had somehow gotten so close to them that he had adapted to their lifestyle. He actually took Erwin's sunglasses and put them on himself.

"Let's go, buddy!" Erwin raised his hand. Freud did the same as Erwin as they were going to the bus.

"Woof!" Reolf showed his excitement, wondering if he would finally get more space.

"Let's go, Reolf!" Ragna pointed to the bus. "I'm also curious."

The only ones left were Jay and Clovis.

"Are the two buses the same? Or do they have some special functions?" Jay asked Hana.

"There are only two differences between these buses. The first bus has the recovery pod, since you only need one. So, the second bus has an empty space for Reolf or another bed.

"The kitchen is in the first bus, so the second bus has the thing you probably want the most."

"What's that? A training space? No, the bus is too small for that."

"Hot tub. Just don't use it while you're moving, or the water is going to spill everywhere."

"So, that means Reolf has two spaces for himself. Got it." Jay nodded and just walked to the bus as if he wasn't that interested in those facilities.

Clovis just chuckled. "Well, thank you for the buses. We'll be going then."

"Yep! Be careful."

"Of course."
