Muya City, 'Upright-Ear' Tavern.
Bartlett sat at a corner table, fully enjoying the delicious dishes in front of him. From time to time, he overheard the stories of the tavern owner and the cheers or complaints of the surrounding guests about certain parts of the stories.
It was the third day since Bartlett returned from the Realm of Darkness. In the past two days, he had done almost nothing except handing over his tasks on the Floating City above.
Bartlett did not check how much soul energy he had gained from the trip or take inventory of the spoils in his Space Ring. Instead, he simply returned to the 'Upright-Ear' tavern, which was very familiar to him, booked the same room he often stayed in, and slept soundly.
He slept for almost two days until the unbearable hunger and thirst in his belly woke him up, screaming for food.
