{Oh~ You look even more handsome with this new-look, Jasper. Good job Nemus.} Grumera praised me, I must admit, it feels rather good to be praised like this. Now that I think about it, sometimes when I overheard that I am good-looking but no one ever praised my appearance, but no one said it directly to me because of my bad reputation.

"Th–Thank you." It's kinda embarassing!!!!!

{Oh~ are you embarrassed Jasper, how cute.}

{Hm. But I think you should rip those apart, to show off your muscles, no actually you should just go shirtless} 

'IS HE FOR REAL?! Like hell, I'd do that! Let's change the subject.'

"You were right, they are surprisingly comfortable, they don't feel tight or too hot?" I was currently wearing a typical gray. 

{I told you right~}

' Indeed, and this look isn't bad at all. I was currently wearing a typical gray colored trousers, a plain white shirt and a gray colored waistcoat. As I was admiring my new look.

{I have prepared some special grimoires for you, but I don't think you are powerful enough to use them yet. I will give them to you later.}

"I see, don't worry, I will be powerful enough to use them soon."

{We will see that.} His smirk is really annoying because he is good-looking. I can't wait to see his face when I exceed his expectations.

{And I have prepared plenty of weapons for you, of course, most of them are magic weapons you haven't seen before, make good use of them. They are in the basement}

"Seriously? Can I take a look at them right now?"

{Why not, I am sure you're gonna love 'em} After recieving the permission I went towards the basement.

"This–This is simply beautiful! Spears, swords, morning star and even kunai? There is every type of weapon you could ask for. Wait is that the greatsword of legendary warrior tulkan? and that's the dagger of apparition which belonged to the nameless assassin?! But it was written in books that they were lost though?! Wait there are more weapons of those legendary figure's, You're amazing Zanas!" I've always liked weapons wether they are classic or exotic ones and after practicing with them for nearly 2 years here they've become my a big part of my life now, and on top of them magic weapons? I couldn't ask for more.

{Kuhahaha of course I am amazing. I got some of these weapons from that guy Tulkan as a offering.} 

"Huh? If that's the case is it really okay for me to take them then?"

{Of course, you see he gave them to me as a offering when he was in his prime many people wanted to be associated with him in any way they can so he decided to live hear to avoid unwanted visitor but ofcourse living here without constantly being attacked by the monsters here wasn't possible so he asked for my protection when I answered his plea's he got really happy and offered me these weapons to show how grateful he was. So it's totally fine for you to take them.} 

"I see then I will take these~" As I was moving those weapons in my dimensional storage which is one of the intermediate rank of space magic a thought suddenly come across my mind.

"Wait, doesn't that mean that I was living in someone's house without permission this whole time?!" However Phanes, like always came forward to explain the situation. 

{Ah! don't worry about that. We had already asked for his permission before we moved you in this house, but if you still feel bad how about you go and pay respect to his resting place, while adventuring.}

"Yeah I'd do just that thank you Phanes."

{It's my turn now, look Jasper look, what I got for you} Grumera had a book in her hand? Wierd she doesn't look like somone who likes to re— Crap is she reading my mind again? As I was thinking that, the book she was holding onto suddenly disappeared and in the next moment I was holding onto it, Over the past few years I have become used to their antics, so, I decided to look at what kind of book it is.

Well... I should have known.

"A romance novel... What am I supposed to do with this?" 

{You've never had a girlfriend right? In fact it wouldn't be an overstatement to say that the world of romance is completely foreign to you, but that can't stay like this forever! Especially not now that you are my child now.} 

"I— Hah~" forget it there's no point in arguing with her. And she is right, now that I think about it it's pretty pathetic... Hah~

{HOHOHO don't bully little Jasper too much Grumera, anyways it looks like it's my turn now, I think you would like this.} I wonder what kind of he will give me, however he just started at me for while as his eyes shone golden. and then he just smiled like usual

"??" Seeing a confused look on my face he started explaining

{Haha you look confused, Let me explain I just gave you a skill called Universal encyclopedia. It allows you to search about various things from your old world. It's similar to that thing you had in you old world called internet.} 

'Huh? doesn't that exactly what internet does! This is absolutely the best gift I could've asked for. Wait did I already say this before? I can't wait to test this. Ah! I was lost in thought again, I should properly thank them first'

"Okay, Thank you very much for the gifts I like them very much and for everything you all have done for me, Let me thank you all again." 

I said so respectfully while bowing my head at a angle that even Japanese would be proud of me. After all even though I died when I wasn't supposed to, they didn't had to take any responsibility for it, but not only did they gave me a well deserved new life, but also personally took care of me and gave me so many good things. 

"Seriously? Can I take a look at them right now?"

{Why not, I am sure you're going to love 'em} After receiving the permission, I went towards the basement.

{Of course, you see he gave them to me as an offering. When he was in his prime, many people wanted to be associated with him in any way they can, so he decided to live here to avoid unwanted visitors but of course , living here without constantly being attacked by the monsters here wasn't possible, so he asked for my protection when I answered his plea's he got thrilled and offered me these weapons to show how grateful he was. So, it's totally fine for you to take them.}

{Aww Jasper-chan that's so sweet of you}

{Hahaha go and show the world what you're capable of as my only disciple.}

{Don't slack off on your magic training, too. If you aren't able to become strong enough within two years, you won't get your gifts.}

{I hope you live an interesting life here.}

{Hohoho, as I said before, you deserve it. Now you should go.} 

"Huh, Right now?" 

{Yes. It's the perfect time. You should go before this place collapses down, brace yourself.}

"Wait wha–" However, before I could ask what he meant by lost my consciousness.

POV 3rd person:-

"Wait wha–" Jasper's suddenly disappeared and the levitating orb which contained silhouettes of the gods who seemed to be discussing something among themselves, started to crumble as well, and the mansion followed not after that.
