When I came out of the labyrinth, the sun was already rising.
Well, it's because the poison was so strong, but we also conducted various training sessions.
"Uh… Instructor? I think I've been following the instructor's teachings sufficiently, but what about the accommodations you mentioned?"
Looking at her, I suddenly worry about the accommodations. Alencia doesn't seem like the type of person who would lie, but she seems a bit far from normal. Wasn't that something she blurted out when she was trying to test poisoning her in the first place?
"Hmm. Follow me."
My worries turned out to be unfounded as Alencia took the lead and started walking.
By the way, even after coming out of the labyrinth, the blisters still wouldn't go away. This poison, if left alone, your body will naturally detoxify it, but when will it get better?
While examining her body and following Alencia obediently, Alencia stopped in front of a building. But this building...
"Um, Instructor? No matter how I look at it, it doesn't look like a place for accommodations."
We just arrived in front of a mansion. I thought I'd just go to a lodging facility, and she would give me some money for my stay, but would I have a mansion? Just what was happening here?
"By any chance? Will I be staying here?"
"Yes."
Wow! I was expecting a cheap inn or something, but it's actually a two-story mansion that looks swanky at first glance. It even has a yard and glass windows; it's clearly a mansion that rich people would live in.
"This is my house. During your training period, you'll be living at the instructor's house."
"Yes. Wait. The instructor's house?"
"Is there a problem?"
There… isn't really any problem. I would be grateful if I could sleep under the same roof as a beauty like this in a luxurious mansion.
"Well, there might be one... Is it okay for you to bring a man like me into your home?"
"Why not? If you try to fight me, I'll just beat you to a pulp."

"Ah! I really can't sleep!"
There was something I hadn't thought of. There was no problem until Alencia showed me to the guest room on the first floor. I washed up, took off my armor, and laid down on the soft-looking bed. Rather, I was impressed by the facilities of the mansion, and I quickly fell asleep while feeling the soft mattress, which I had never felt in another world.
Until I woke up feeling an incredible itchiness.
"Fuck… How come the skill duration doesn't work?"
When I was awake, I kept refreshing my skills, but when I fell asleep, the itchiness came back the moment the skill duration ended. If I woke up and used a skill, I wouldn't feel right away, and the skill duration was barely over 30 minutes, and I didn't feel refreshed after only sleeping for 30 minutes.
In the end, after repeatedly falling asleep and waking up, I gave up on sleeping and went out of the room. At first, I couldn't stand the fatigue and fell asleep several times, but after sleeping for 30 minutes and waking up again, I finally woke up.
It was already dark outside, but today, the moon was especially bright, so the moonlight came in through the windows, and I could see inside the mansion to some extent. It was still a little dark, so I used one of my skills.
"[Sensory Amplification]. Amplify 'Vision'."
Since I had already cast [Sensory Block] on myself to block itchiness, the conditions for using [Sensory Amplification] were met. The ability to amplify other senses that were not blocked while [Sensory Block] was cast.
Vision is the ability of the human eye to perceive light, or more precisely, electromagnetic waves. If you amplify your vision with [Sensory Amplification], you will be able to see clearly even in dim light.
I learned how to use this skill while testing it out on my own. I still can't use [Sensory Block] for my vision, but [Sensory Amplification] worked. The reason why the blocking doesn't work is probably because vision is the most receptive sense among human senses.
Anyway, after using the skill, the dim interior of the mansion became more visible. It's still not as visible as during the day, but it wasn't that bad, I guess. After all, it was pretty dark.
With the skill maintained, I looked around the interior of the mansion, which I couldn't properly see during the day. There were no paintings in the hall, but there were some nice-looking armors on display, and in the space that looked like the kitchen, there was a magic tool similar to a refrigerator where ingredients were kept fresh.
…Why is this poisonous plant in the refrigerator?
Anyway, not only the kitchen but also the bathroom, which looked like a bathroom, had high-quality magic tools installed, and everything was kept clean.
There didn't seem to be any employees, so did they clean it themselves? Or maybe there was some kind of magic tool for cleaning.
I wandered around the mansion, thinking about thoughts to kill time. The room that looked like a storage room was locked.
I didn't intend to steal anything, though. After looking around the first floor, I suddenly became curious about the second floor. Since Alencia, who had shown me the guest room earlier, went up to the second floor, I guess Alencia's room is on the second floor.
Hmm... She didn't tell me not to go up to the second floor while showing me the bathroom and toilet locations, so I guess it's okay!
***
I actually went up to the second floor, but the second floor was similar to the first floor. There were armors on display in the hallway, and there were pots with plants here and there, but I'm not really interested in plants.
There was also a space that looked like a study, but no matter how much I used my skills, it wasn't bright enough to read books, so I just looked at the titles.
Wait, that book,
How is it that she has such a book in this world?
"Are you also from Earth?"
I wondered which crazy Earthling had spread the knowledge of Harry Potter to this world, and judging by the name, it seemed similar to the original book.
I was curious about the contents of the book, but since it was still dark, I put the book aside and left the study.
However, since I found a book written by someone who was presumed to be English, I couldn't help but think of my hometown. Is there a library in the city? There must be other books written by Earthlings like this one...
Feeling even more excited, I opened the door to the room next door.
And on the wide-looking bed, Alencia was fast asleep, covered with a thin blanket.
"...Let's go down."
I suddenly wanted to go into the room and take a look, but of course, a high-level explorer would have excellent intuition. I closed the door as quietly as possible and went down to the first floor so as not to wake Alencia by doing something useless.
When I happened to see Alencia sleeping, I remembered how I teased Hessa while he was sleeping when I worked at the infirmary.
....
Should I take a step back and rest?
I thought of useless thoughts again, so I went back to my room, masturbated while recalling Hessa's appearance back then, and lay down on the bed to stay up all night with my eyes wide open.
