I Was a Loner, but My Class Got Summoned to Another World…-Chapter 207: Short Respite
Having spoken with the army that had arrived via teleportation after giving their location, Logan and his group created their temporary housing using earth magic and bringing items out from their storage. Even the army commander was impressed with how comfortable their lodging was.
The commander had no choice but to order his soldiers to make housing to inspect this place, which had far more evidence. While the crystals were mostly gone, their effect radiated throughout the field, sometimes sapping the mana, making it necessary for mages within the army to make barriers to contain the stone's power.
"With what we found, we can start making countermeasures. Thanks, heroes, for finding the demons… I apologize for my behavior this morning… I have been on edge this past month. Hopefully, we can create a way to find the demonic stone's energy and keep them off our lands."
"As long as you relay our help to your king, I'm sure you know why we came," Logan said while setting up a table with food to eat. Lisa and Rubina were also busy either cleaning vegetables or serving tea before the meal.

"Well then, I will excuse myself. Please enjoy your rest, we will keep the perimeter safe so you can relax," the commander said as he got out of their tent without waiting for a response.
"Still seems a little stiff, but at least he apologized…" Rubina said while finishing her work and sitting in her seat.
"Yeah, I should have given him a warning. With the church backing me, I can even have him jobless," Lisa said in anger as she sat on the opposite side of Rubina.
"Just leave it, we will probably never see him again," Logan said at the edge of the table and began eating.
"Logan, it's important to keep them in their place. You are a king; something like that should be enough to have him beheaded," Kai said while passing everyone the meat he had finished grilling.
"Let's not talk about that for now. How about we put on a movie? I want to watch something fun to forget all this," Logan asked as he set a crystal in the middle of the table. It let each person see the movie about a certain dragon tamer. Logan regained his spirit watching the movie, wanting his own dragon soon.
Later that night, the two groups split in two, Logan and Kai in one tent while the two girls in another. Logan hoped they wouldn't fight as he quickly changed into his nightwear and went to sleep. He did send out a mental good night to each of the girls respectively before sleeping.
"That Logan…" Rubina said while smiling. She had placed a wisp of fire around her to keep her warm as well as to have enough light to read a book.
"Does the light bother you, Miss Lisa? I will be up for a little to finish reading this book," Rubina asked while looking to the bed next to her where Lisa was busy stretching.
"No… I have no problems, just doing some light yoga before I sleep. It really helps me relax," Lisa said while doing a few weird poses that left Rubina wondering.
"Yo… ga?" Rubina asked, putting the book down.
"Yes, it's a type of exercise. It helps the mind. My father taught me how to do it as he usually worked late and needed it to help keep his mind clear," Lisa said while stretching her back almost like a cat would.
"Never heard of it…" Rubina said as she put the book aside and tried doing what the hero did. She quickly gave up as she did not have the elasticity to keep up.
"Keep doing it every night. I know you are a mage, but you should at least have enough muscle to keep up with Logan's crazy adventures," Lisa said as she cast healing magic on Rubina to keep her from having muscle pains in the morning.
"I will… at least I did feel my mind settle… that Logan sure knows how to keep me busy. If it wasn't for Leonard's help, I would have still been swamped with so much work," Rubina said, beginning to explain the harsh environment she was in before Logan acquired help.
"Sounds rough, I doubt I could have done it…" Lisa said while yawning. The small talk between the girls at least reminded her a little of how she would act around Alma. The two were inseparable.
"Well then, let's sleep. I doubt even my most powerful spell will remove our baggy eyes in the morning. I sure wouldn't want Logan to see them…" Lisa said while turning off her light.
"Sure thing, if you need help with that though, I could cast some illusion magic. I could even cover something as small as a pore with it, so it should be easy," Rubina said while laughing.
"I hope it's not like Marie… I don't even know if that is her real appearance. She could be a guy, and we wouldn't know. Good thing I knew how she looked in the past…" Lisa said in a light voice, almost feeling her consciousness fading.
"Yeah… she has changed a lot though, like all the girls around Logan… she doesn't fall behind… I wish I was also a hero though, even Serana looks better… than me," Rubina said a little sadly.
"Don't be like that, you have your own charm, Rubina…" Lisa said before snoring.
"Guess even the others don't compare to you… you don't even have to worry about the other heroes' looks," Rubina said in an almost inaudible voice, only meant for herself.
She knew just how much above them Lisa was in Logan's heart compared to the rest, including her. But at least she wasn't alone in her endeavor to be part of Logan's heart. She just needed to find a way to secure a place and later even overtake Lisa as Logan's favorite.
She just did not know how yet.
