It wasn't until nightfall that I woke up.

Before I knew it, I was being carried to the cave where I lived.

'Grand Master, you're awake now.

I look at Leia, who sits upright and looks at me as if she's peering at me, and I know it wasn't a dream.

The nightmare of me being the number one adventurer ranking apparently won't wake up.

''I'm sorry. I had forgotten that I was exhausted from the previous fight to the death with the Ancient Dragon. As I recall, I've heard that you fought tirelessly for about a month.

No, though I slept a good eight hours a day, plenty of sleep.

'Ah, there's Leia,'

Yes, Grand Master.

Where shall I begin? There's so much to say, I can't think straight.

I get up and look at Leia from above. Leia is still sitting upright.

'For now, you are not allowed to touch me in any way from now on.

Oh, wow, okay, Grand Master.

Leia's expression first became surprised, then bright red and shy, and finally serious.

'I understand now. The power of the Grand Master is so great that it has a tremendous effect on me who I have touched. Earlier, you tried to suppress that power and forcibly shut down my bodily functions to protect me. I'm truly sorry.

Leia bows deeply.

Yeah, everything's wrong.

But it's too much trouble, so let's just leave it at that. Another hug would kill me.

'You're well aware of that. You're right.

This line would later become the line I would use most often in my life.

I would regret later on that I should have corrected it properly and not bothered with it at that time.

I couldn't back down and couldn't correct all the mistakes I would make in the future.

''Later, I wish you would stop calling me that Grand Master or something. It makes me itch all over when you call me that.

Oh, my God, what can I call you then?

That reminds me of what Alice used to call me.

'You can call me Takumi. Also, you're making up that way of talking. You can talk to me more comfortably.

There's no way, sir. You don't have to be so carefree, Master.

The language has already collapsed.

''Anyway, Grand Master is banned. Just get used to the language a little at a time.''

Okay, okay. Lady Takumi.

I don't need you.

So, Takumi-san, I guess you'll have to excuse me.

Yeah, that's a little better now.

Now I just want you to graduate from your apprenticeship and leave right away.

''So, what is it that Leia-san has come to learn from me?

'Ta, Takumi. Please call me by my nickname or trash. You can't show your master and disciple by calling me by the same name.

No, those two choices are too much. You can't call me a garbage bug or something.

"Leia.

Yes, Takumi.

We looked at each other and then turned away at the same time.

What is this, I'm a little embarrassed.

'What did you come here to teach me, sir? If possible, I would like you to teach me all of Takumi-san's secrets, but with my current abilities, it would be impossible to do so even if it took a hundred years.

Hmm. You're right. You're right.

I didn't correct you earlier, so you can't correct me anymore.

There is no such thing as a secret technique. The only skill I'm good at is being able to sleep with ayatollahs quickly.

The other day, Alice-sama pointed out my weakness. I can't control my power. Since I always attack with all my might, I can't take it easy.

Okay, so that's why the hug almost killed me. I'm really glad I forbade him to touch me.

''Alice-sama said that a true strong man does not show his strength. He admonished me for being an inexperienced person who always had a powerful aura about me.

'Surely Leia is a strong man in full view.

When I first met him, I mistook him for a vicious demon. That's how intense and intimidating Leia is, full of a strong sense of intimidation.

''Alice-sama said. You're the strongest person in the universe, Takumi, and even that fragment of strength is kept inside, not shown on display. It is said that Takumi, the strongest person in the universe, has an aura that would shatter a normal person's body, and he controls it as if nothing happened.

Yeah, I don't have it. Such an aura.

I don't know why Alice thought of me that way.

''After meeting you in person, I was surprised too. I was surprised to see that Takumi-san, the most powerful person in the universe, has only a faint aura like a goblin. It's really impressive to see that he's one of the best adventurers I've ever met, and he's one of the best little fishes I've ever met: ...... Takumi-san, are you crying?

Hey, I'm not crying. I just got some crap in my eye.

I didn't know I was such a shitty person.

Well, in fact, I was ranked 50000th in the guild rankings, but before I joined the party, I was at the bottom of the pile.

I knew that, but when I was told that badly, I was a little depressed.

''Powerful aura control. It must have been acquired after a bloody training session.''

Yeah, you're sure about that? Yeah, you're right.

I answer in a slightly tearful voice.

'Could you please help me learn how to do that?

My training is hard.

I hope so.

I hope you don't wish to.

I feel a crazy passionate stare.

I don't have anything to teach you. I wish you could just put it on yourself and go home.

Well, it's late and we're having dinner. Well, it's late and we'll have dinner and start training tomorrow. Can Leia cook a meal?

No, I'm sorry. I've been living by the sword all my life.

Yeah, it was kind of like that.

It can't be helped. I'll teach you slowly there too.

'Well, can you just peel the potatoes for me? Like this.

Leia's eyes lit up as she took out the potatoes in her basket and shaved them with her knife.

''This is the thing. I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more to say about it. As expected of Takumi-san.

I'm kind of excited on my own.

Not at all, but let's just call it that.

"Hmm. You're well aware. You're right.

I couldn't have imagined at that time that this cultivation would later become a legendary practice and become world famous.
