For the next few weeks, Hilda keeps investing points into the territory, killing all of the incoming opponents by herself as the territory's income reaches 40,000 per week.
Hilda watches her points passively increasing as she smiles, happy with the current income.
“Shila, should we continue climbing the tower soon?” Hilda asks, turning to Shila who is lying on the couch with Jamine who is asleep.
“Honestly, I'd suggest not.” Shila replies, making sure Jamine doesn't roll off the sofa using her leg to block Jamine.
“Why not?” Hilda asks, looking at Jamine.
“Well, remember how your the first 10… well, 9 now?” Shila says, pulling Jamine in between her legs and preventing her from moving so she doesn't roll off.
“Yea?”
“Well, obviously the floors aren't going to work out.”
“Huh?” Hilda tilts her head, turning to look at Shila.
“You forgot? It's almost been a year, people will start entering soon.” Shila reminds, causing Hilda to remember, sighing in annoyance.
“Dammit…” Hilda lies down on her face on her sofa.
“Anyways, the first floor will be changed along with a tutorial stage, because you remember blue and how weak he was? He is actually considered somewhat ‘talented’ compared to normal people.” Shila says as Hilda lifts her face up surprised.
“Seriously?!” Hilda shouts, scaring Jamine up.
“Mom! What did you shout for?!” Jamine shouts at Hilda, trying to hit her for the scare but not being able to as Shila keeps Jamine in between her legs, trapping her in.
“Oops… just go back to sleep, I won't wake you up again.” Hilda says, patting Shila and calming her down slightly as she does.
“It was such a big shock?” Shila asks as Jamine tries to go back to sleep, still in between Shila's legs.
“Yea, obviously, that guy was pathetic.”
“Actually… it was just you 9 are a lot more talented, usually it takes a group of level 10s to beat a level 10 monster. You have good battle sense, white is talented in water magic, red is talented in pets and stuff while orange was probably a scientist or something so she's talented in poisons, I have no clue about the rest.” Shila says, making Hilda flip herself into her back, poking Jamine's cheek.

“But if that was the case, wouldn't more people be ‘talented?’ ” Hilda asks as Shila shakes her head.
“No, you guys have a minimum of 5 levels in your traits, which means you guys would probably keep that thing even if you become homeless. Like red would probably keep her pets if she became homeless or white still consider swimming a priority even if he became homeless.” Shila says as Hilda keeps poking Jamine's cheeks, irritating her slowly.
“Nice but, is floor 1 really going to be changed? That's basically a relaxation spot. The grass is so nice to lie on, the sun isn't too bright, there are no ants or insects, the monsters are pathetic.” Hilda says, continujng to list things out while poking Jamine's cheeks as she gets very annoyed, trying to bite Hilda's finger but failing.
“Alright, got it. No more poking or disturbing, okay?” Hilda says, patting Jamine to sleep like a baby, all this happening with Jamine still in between her legs.
“Hilda, some floors might have some changes so just stay either in the territory, level 10 or 30 first.” Shila says, releasing Jamine from her legs.
“Sure.” Hilda says, not bothering to say anything despite her displeasure at needing to stay at the territory because the 30th floor isn't very accepting of her and the 10th floor is just plain lame.”
“Wow, that was easier than expected.” Shila says with Hilda ignoring her completely.
“Just one question, how long do I need to stay here?” Hilda asks, poking Shila once to annoy her.
“Hands off. Also, it's probably gonna be another week.” Shila answers.
“Oh nice, that seems interesting to say the least, how many people?” Hilda asks
“1000.” Shila answers as Hilda processes it.
“What… how the hell does the guide intend to snatch 1000 people without anyone noticing?” Hilda asks, remembering to keep her voice down to avoid pissing Jamine off again.
“I assume stage an accident? Maybe a bomb or something?” Shila says while shrugging.
“So the guide is a kidnapper?” Hilda asks as Shila somewhat shrugs in confirmation.
“Wtf…”
How about taking care of her?” Hilda points to Jamine who is asleep and continuously moving around in her sleep, occasionally sending a kick at Jamine's face who just takes it.
“I'm… good, have fun.” Hilda tries to run as Shila throws Jamine at Hilda, waking her up and pissing her off.
“Mom and sis keep waking me up!!!” Jamie starts hitting both of them, using her acid as Shila teleports behind Hilda with Hilda using a forcefield.
Hilda sighs, teleporting behind Jamine and picking her up.
“Calm down okay? How about playing some games?” Hilda says, shaking Jamine to get her to stop spitting acid.
“What games? Jamine asks, immediately getting interested.
“Board games?” Hilda says as some of Jamine's interest instantly fades but stille nods as Hilda buys some random games, placing them down on the floor.
“Ok, the rules are simple. We'll keep playing till it's the next morning, one with the highest score wins.” Hilda says, arranging the games in front of them.
“Hilda Jamien andnShika alll sit on the floor as they start playing. A couple hours later, with the sun coming back up, Jamine wins to Hilda and Shila's surlside.
“Yay!” She shouts, happily giving her plenty eyes and the board to Hilda to reset as she sighs.
