YM778.TV Chapter 9 - A Normal Morning
Inside a quiet room, suddenly a magic circle appears and floated above the bed as it lightens up the whole room with its bright light while spinning around. Once the light subdued along with the disappearance of the magic circle, there stood a young figure of a female. The girl looked around her surrounding before leaving out a sigh from her mouth with her tense shoulders dropped.
"I\'m back."
Sheila muttered before picking up the phone by her side and looked at the time on the screen. It appears that only 30 minutes passed in the real world while she stays inside the dungeon for a whole 5-6 hours or possibly longer than that. She couldn\'t tell how long exactly she had stay inside the dungeon but at the very least, around 5-6 hours. As she was about to put her phone on the bed, she noticed something particular on her bed. It was the rusty sword.
"What? No way... does this mean that I could bring the stuff I picked to the real world?"
To Sheila, Instant Dungeon that she had stayed before feel like an entirely different world. The air, the skies, and the land, everything feels alive. She doesn\'t know how to explain the feeling she had, but she was sure that she was close to it. At least, Instant Dungeon is different than the world she lives in. Not because of the slimes or endlessly grassland, it was because the space inside has its limit.
One particular time, she was sneaking up on the back of a slime. She had come to witness a scene she would never forget. The slime was regularly bouncing its way until it comes onto stopped due to an invisible wall obstructing its path. The slime jelly-like body then twitches nonstop before it keeps jumping at the invisible wall as if trying to beat it, but in the end, it was to no avail. The slime eventually gave up and bounced away.
"Pffft— The slime was pretty cute with such a surreal scene."
She laughed when she remembered back to the scene of a slime fighting against the wall. When she had enough of laughing, she carefully picked up the rusty sword. Just by holding onto it, she could tell its the real sword that she had used to defeat the slime in the Trial Tower. Sheila put back the sword on her bed before picking up her phone and opened the leveling system app on the home screen.

『 Inventory 』
Sheila clicked on the inventory option, and a new window appeared on the screen. Looking at this game-like inventory, she silently thought, is it possible to put the rusty sword inside? If it works, then she doesn\'t have to worry about where to hide it from her mother. Just by imagining her mother finding out about it when she was cleaning her bedroom already brought her headaches. While holding onto the phone on her right hand, she picked up the rusty sword on the bed using her left hand and then shoved the sword \'into\' her smartphone and magically, it went inside as if sucked by into the void. Seeing the magical scene right in front of her two eyes, the girl was surprised before breathing out a relief sight. Thankfully, it could be put inside.
『 Inventory:
—Rusty Sword 』
The new item appears in the game-like inventory as the sword icon. She nodded her head before falling on her back onto the bed. What a long tiring day, Sheila thought in her mind. The slime was also pretty cute if only she has her smartphone in hands at the time. Looking back at the memory of her hunting down the slime one by one, the time where she had to keep her breath in order to hide her presence from the group of slime in distance, or the time when she had to run when she accidentally triggered the slime combat mode when she was looking for a place to rest. Everything that she had experience is definitely something that not every normal person could experience.
The happiness that comes after completing the quest was indeed something. She feels like she had accomplished something great in her life, even though it was just slaying slimes. As she thought back about everything, her eyelid eventually grows heavy, and within minutes, she had fallen asleep with the smile on her face.
***
The next day, Morning.
Sheila was woken up to the delicious smell coming from downstairs, the kitchen. When she opened her eyes, her stomach grumbled, urging her to move her lazy ass to the kitchen and fill it with food in haste. She was surprised that she had fallen asleep and only woke up when the morning arrived. She must have been totally exhausted when completing the quest. She got up on her feet and picked her phone before walking out of the bedroom.
When she arrived at the kitchen, her mother was just about to finish making breakfast and was surprised by her presence. It seems that her daughter really has changed; she smiles at the thought before opening her mouth and greets her daughter.
"Good morning, Sheila."
"Morning, Mom. Is the food ready? I\'m hungry."
Sheila greeted her Mother back and walked to the sink to wash her face and hands clean before sitting on the chair at the dining table.
"Just wait for a minute, and it will be done."
"Fuah~ Okay."
She yawned before picking her phone in her pocket.

Although it is good to put it all in but without stamina, how could she able to handle her newfound strength? She came to a conclusion and distributed the points; the final result was.

"…"
She wonders who wrote the detail about stats and below, she would like to talk with the person if possible. When her strength increased to 10, she could somehow faintly feel that her weight has grown to a certain amount. But her body shown no sign of changing, for example, having a muscular arm which is something she would rather not happening. Perhaps, within her thin and weak looking arm, the muscle inside of it had been compressed and which was why her weight increased. That\'s the only possible course that she came up with from her experience as a fanatic reader of a fantasy novel. She nodded her head at the increased in her stats before closing the status window and clicking on the Quest. She was shocked speechless by the window on the screen of her phone.
