I Was a Loner, but My Class Got Summoned to Another World…-Chapter 210: Night in Megyeszorosz
"It's an honor to have you, the king of Highrule. We all have great expectations for your kingdom," Duke Alaric said while drinking some particularly strong liquor that Logan could smell from where he was sitting.
"Thanks, I will do my best to help with the demons first, though I just hope I finished gathering my forces on time," Logan said politely. They were already done with dinner, which was a large hog with various dry dishes. Logan had to wash them down with sweet sparkling water, which he enjoyed.
Logan looked around him. They were already finished, but he was still marveling at the luxury within the Duke's castle—the polished silverware, blue gems, and carefully carved wooden chairs and table.
His own round stone table, even if polished, paled in comparison. Logan just admired them; he did not covet them. He knew with time his own kingdom would be far more enviable than anything previously seen in this world, especially since he could hire Bobby for this.
"Well then, it's getting late. I enjoyed the chat, Duke Alaric. Can we speak tomorrow before we set out?" Logan asked. He was tempted to keep eating but was even more excited to get through the night. The next day should be the one that he would get his new monster.
"I guess you are tired, young man. Alright, we will leave this for today. Please enjoy your rest." The duke served himself another cup while everyone exited the room.
Logan was ready to just go to bed but was asked by both Rubina and Lisa to join them for a talk. He nodded and followed them to the room Lisa was given.
"Wow, what a large room. I don't think my own room in the Rosethorn castle is this big," Lisa said as she opened the room. Within it, there were various paintings and tasteful furnishings, a little too blue for Logan's taste.
"Well, what did you two want to talk about?" Logan said in the comfortable bed. It was pretty good, still not as great as his own.
"About that, well, we were thinking that we needed to discuss what to do in the future. We basically won against the demons relying on you. We need to start getting serious if we are to enter the war… this means practicing together," Lisa said, a little tired by the day's events.
"If it's about that, then yes, we do need to work out our teamwork. How about we practice as soon as we return? I also felt useless without my other tamed beasts. As Silvia said, we need to get to our next major breakthrough. Hopefully, it will give us the power we will need."
Logan looked at his status window and tried assessing his current strength. The numbers and statistics flashed before his eyes, giving him a comprehensive overview of his abilities, skills, and current power levels.

Logan thought about what Silvia said and realized he needed to not only gather strong beasts but also hunt them. He placed his bet on the electric plains in Eta, which would have to be their next destination as well as the longest journey they would probably have to take.
"As for what we need to do, well, we can start training after we acquire the Wyverns. I am sure this kingdom is dying to see how strong we have gotten. Let's ask for a test fight with their elites. Maybe then we can also ask for resources to further our strength. I am sure they will comply after seeing our strength," Logan pitched in.
"You should know I can't really do much, but if you do cut a limb or two, I can at least regrow them," Lisa nodded, as if asking Logan to go all out.
"Guess that will mean I can use my strongest spells and you would be able to heal them," Rubina provoked, smiling slyly at Lisa.
"Well, if they are an inch from death, I can, so go all out. I bet you haven't noticed that most of the people here are mainly water users… I wonder how your fire will damage them," Lisa rebuked.
"How about a friendly wager then… whoever wins… will have a date with Logan," Rubina said while placing a hand on Logan's shoulder.
"Fine, but you will surely lose. I doubt you will stand a chance without Logan helping you, so let's make it simple. If you take care of ten soldiers here without needing my help, you win. I doubt it though," Lisa added.
"Oh alright… fine, I will only use fire to make it fair. Maybe you forgot, but I can also use darkness magic," Rubina placed a self-imposed rule. She wasn't going to fail either way, or so she felt.
Logan did not know why they just decided to bet on something, especially when he was involved. He just decided to lie back and enjoy the banter between the two.
"Hey Logan, you're not supposed to be sleeping. Get up and go back to your room!" Lisa said jokingly, yet the boy did not get up.
"I think… he went straight to sleep…" Rubina said, wondering what they should do.
"Should we wake him?" Lisa said, playing with his hair.
"I don't know… it's your room, right?" Rubina replied, watching Logan sleep peacefully.
"Seems you're right. Now shoo, you should just go back to your room." Lisa tried pushing Rubina off the bed.
"And leave you two… I don't think so. You either leave with me and sleep in my room, or we all stay here." Rubina huffed, not wanting to back down.
"Well… fine, let's just sleep here. I wonder how Logan would react in the morning… do you have a spell to keep him asleep?" Lisa said, wanting to try something.
"I do… have a mental skill that makes it hard to feel one's body, but what will you do?" Rubina asked with curiosity.
"Nothing, just draw on his face and move him to a more comfortable pose." Lisa laughed, wanting to try the first.
"Why would you want… well, whatever, just do it. I will cast it…" Rubina began placing her hand on Logan's head. She did not tell Lisa one part of her ability, though. She began making Logan have a dream about her.
"Let's see what you remember in the morning…" Rubina said, smiling, happy she had the chance to hopefully move Logan's heart in her direction.
