C15. Hardcore Grinding!

**3rd Person POV**

An Hour Later.

Alanna, Imani, and Fai looked at the little creature napping on top of Arthur's head with curiosity. Haku opened his eyes and looked at them only to see each of them had immense potential, especially the tiger-kin. He leaped from Arthur's head toward Imani's lap. Arthur rubbed his forehead and shook his head before he explained the current situation.

"Ladies! His name is Haku and he will be our companion from known on if you are in difficulties and I'm not available, our Haku can solve everything."

"Feee~!"

"Yeah! He could solve almost everything as long related to violence, okay?" Arthur rubbed their head. Haku heard his words and glared at him like he insulted his intelligence as punishment he gave him a dropped kick.

"Ouch!"

"Hmph!" Haku snorted before returning to Imani's bosom.

"Haku, don't bully master!" Imani reminded him about his behavior seeing her action made Alanna the eldest among the three proud to see her growth.

Alanna looked at her master before she took the cooking utensils; seeing the magical tools used for cooking amazed him.

"Not bad! Alanna." He rubbed her cheek before he summoned the magical cabin from his inventory and invited them inside.

"Come! Let's rest and continue our journey after we rest and have a proper meal."

""Meat~!"" Imani and Fai made a high-five while Haku nodded his head in satisfaction.

"Master, I will help you cook our meal."

"Nah! It's alright I need you to bring both Imani and Fai to the bathroom to clean yourselves and relax. We will have a long journey ahead before we can escape from this place." Arthur rubbed her head and gave her an instruction. He used the status check and discovered they were tired, the good news was that the trio managed to reach level 14 equivalent to Town's gate guard.

[Imani, level 14, Title: The Dreamer, Arthur's Servant]

[Fai, level 14, Title: Little Pathfinder, Arthur's Servant]

[Alanna, level 15, Title: Pink Guardian, Arthur's Servant]

[Arthur, level 26, Title: Lost One, Explorer, Friend of Animals]

Arthur nodded his head in satisfaction and decided to teach them about basic combat, but he refrained from teaching about magic at least until they left for another location. He decided to increase his level and add an extra title to protect Haku from the hands of greedy people since he could use the title to mislead the people about his identity.

Arthur prepared the food and the two little girls ran toward his direction rubbing their heads toward him. He smiled and patted their head before taking an extra towel to dry themselves.

Alanna followed the girls and saw Arthur's action, which made her blush seeing his care about the two. She blissed and decided to protect the family he created even some higher beings wanted to destroy her family, she vowed to slaughter them!

Haku looked at Alanna and saw the vow she created covered the whole family with red treads. He smiled and couldn't wait to witness the future of the rabbit-kin.

"Haku! Alanna! Come let's eat." Arthur called them both and they joined their first meal together at the table. Where he prepared various foods for them to be filled, and grow stronger with his status check he can adjust the food they intake to balance their diet.

""""Thank you! For the food."""" 

"FEEE~!"

A few Hours Later.

Arthur and his team traveled on the treacherous road by following the map. They managed to escape from any dead-end and tried to keep a few mementos of the corpses they found along the way.

Where he planned to distribute them back to the family of the victim for them mourned on their family.

He also trained and commanded the girls about strategy while assisting them if things went wrong.

Currently, the girls are facing a group of monsters to increase each level, individual battle IQ and cultivate further team cooperation. He observed them from the back and watched the girls doing their best. Imani despite her small body. She acted as the tank of the group with her buckler and short sword to defend.

"Imani~! {Bash!}" Imani shouted and bashed the buckler in the upcoming monster after the target was knocked up. Fia chased the monster in mid-air and gripped both daggers in her hands.

"Hyaa!" Fia stabbed the monster before she performed a backflip kicking the monster in another direction.

Alanna who is wielding the spear and facing each monster alone while performing an acrobatic step made her movement attractive. Arthur looked at the progress of the trio and nodded his head in satisfaction.

During the same time, he did his best to mentor them to learn some combat skills. He operates the 'HUD' and checks the latest entry in the last few hours.
