After leaving the Adventurer's Guild, Kaito made his way to the nearby inn, eager to rest after a long day of quests and achievements. The sun had dipped below the horizon, and the warm glow of lanterns illuminated the entrance of the inn.
Upon entering, he was greeted by the innkeeper, a stout man with a friendly smile. "Welcome! How can I help you today?" he asked.
Kaito approached the counter. "Is there an available room for the night?"
"Yes, we have rooms available," the innkeeper replied. "However, I must inform you that due to the recent influx of adventurers, our prices have increased. It will cost you 12 bronze coins for the room and an additional 4 bronze coins for a meal."
Kaito nodded, understanding the situation. "That's fine. I'll take the room and the meal."
The innkeeper smiled and took the coins from Kaito, then gestured for him to follow. "Right this way, then. I'll show you to your room."
As they walked through the inn, Kaito noticed the lively atmosphere, with adventurers sharing stories and laughter in the common area. The innkeeper led him to a cozy room at the end of the hall. "Here you are. Make yourself at home. Your meal will be brought to you shortly."
Kaito thanked the innkeeper and stepped into the room, closing the door behind him. He took a moment to relax, stretching his arms and legs after the long day. The bed looked inviting, and he felt a wave of fatigue wash over him.
Just as he settled in, a notification from his system caught his attention:
System Notification:
Congratulations! You have completed your first D-rank quest.
You have gained an additional 120 MP (Magic Points).
You have unlocked your first blessing.
You have gained an additional 200 MP.
Kaito's eyes widened in surprise and excitement. The increase in his magic points would significantly enhance his abilities as an adventurer. He took a deep breath, feeling a sense of accomplishment wash over him.
As he waited for his meal, Kaito reflected on his journey so far. He had faced challenges, grown stronger, and now had the opportunity to take on even greater quests. With renewed determination, he looked forward to the adventures that awaited him in the days to come.
The sound of a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. The innkeeper returned with a steaming plate of food. "Here you go! Enjoy your meal, and let me know if you need anything else."
"Thank you!" Kaito replied, grateful for the hospitality.
