??-----??"Only thirty minutes before the last stage of the competition begins! Chefs, sell as much as you can while you can!" The voice of Eustace echoed across the plaza, as he spoke using a special magic device that amplified voice volume.
??"Only thirty minutes left, huh? This is the time that we all have been waiting for." I said.
??"Yeah, is everyone ready?" Wondered Benladann.
??"Maybe a little break…" Sighed Benlah.
??"I really need one, yeah." Laddan sighed.
??"Well yeah, you can take a break, I'll attend any new customers using my spirits." I said. "Take a break and prepare because the next stage will be big."
??Like that, Benladann's parents decided to rest for the rest of the half hour, while Benladann and Miranda helped me out. Benladra and Kate were left with their grandparents, playing around, and eating snacks to pass the time.
??I didn't really had to worry about their diet too much, dragons eat a lot and convert most of what they eat into pure energy… ah well, Benladra has learned how to control her instincts a bit more, she has yet to fill her new diapers.
??"Come to think about, those elves were doing just as good as us." Said Miranda.
??"Yeah, those are going to be some tough opponents we'll have to beat later." I said.
??"They were selling things from Earth, right?" Asked Benladann.
??"Hm." I nodded. "They had pizza and hamburgers. I think they even had hot dogs and fried fish with fries, even ketchup." I said. "Even mayo, in fact."
??"Wow those guys really had everything from our world, I bet there was a reincarnated person with them." Said Benladann.
??"I think the same, one of them must be a Unique Skill user. I don't have anything against them though so I guess we are just equals. They probably also realized I was a Unique Skill user, probably." I said.
??"Also the Vampires have been lurking around for a while at the distance." Miranda mentioned.
??"I can tell, they're spying those guys the most." I sighed. "I guess there might be really a Greenwood facility here. Those guys might be trying to do something with this place. I do remember Greenwood once mentioning there were "rats" ruining his plans in the background."
??"You mean that… these rats could be the elves?" Wondered Benladann.
??"It is a big possibility, yeah." I said with a smile. "I've got my Slimes doing the investigation and- Wait a second."
??"Huh?"
??"What is it?"
??I suddenly realized something; their stall was... empty?!
??And it was closed too?!
??Did they just dropped the whole contest?
??Are they already on the move?
??"They left." I said.
??"Huh?"
??"EH?!"
??Benladann and Miranda's reactions were the same as mine as they looked back at their small cart and finding nothing in there. They were completely gone, and many customers were wondering where they go. It felt as if they just disappeared but nobody was able to see in what exact moment. The vampires had yet to even realize as well, inspecting the area around.
??"They just disappeared! They went away in a single second!" I said. "How's that even possible? Do they have teleportation magic or something?!"
??"Woah, they're really gone." Benladann said. "But isn't this better? This way we can get the advantage without them annoying us."
??"True but still…" I sighed. "I think there's something fishy about this. If they're gone out of nowhere, it probably means they had an emergency, and if they're being chased by the Colors, this only means that they probably…"
??"Went to Greenwood's hideout?" Asked Miranda.
??"Bingo!" I said. "So… Hmm, we can't really go ourselves, can't we? And if we interrupt their whole thing, they might think we are foes at worse. I had a slime with them, which I sneaked into one of the twin elf girls' hoodies, let me connect with that one, it seems to have gotten teleported… underground."
??I closed my eyes, connecting my senses with that small green slime, as I suddenly woke up within its small body, quickly finding myself underground. The entire group was slowly walking across several underground cave sections, with glowing crystals growing around and naturally illuminating the place.
??Alongside that, there were cables and strange highly technological devices lying around, which were being turned off almost instantaneously as they walked forward by the leader of the team, the beautiful young elf girl with long blonde hair, sharp green eyes, and an enormous chest (not as big as Benladann though, she wins over every girl).
??"We are getting closer." She said, looking around and spreading an Aura of Mana so dense and thick it felt almost like Divine Power. Just how much pure Mana does she has to have to generate such an effect?!
??"Hm, according to Root, we are right around the corner." One of the elf twin girls said.
??"Closer… I'm nervous, but I haven't grown stronger for nothing." Said the other.
??"Now that we have received the Divine Protection of several Gods we are way stronger, even if we are still within Rank 6." Said the only man in the party, that elf I recognized very well from that time he sold me fruits, veggies, and an Yggdrasil branch.
??"I cannot even Rank Up like you guys. I am stuck at Rank 1…" Sighed the leader of the party.
??"Well you got infinite mana to compensate…" Sighed the guy.
??Wait, what?!
??She has infinite mana?!
??I bet that's… just a joke, right?
??How can someone have infinite mana?
??That's insane…
??"Everyone, we are closer." One of the twins said.
??"There are five guys at the other side of the walls." Said the second twin.
??Eh? How can they detect something so far away? Do they have a Divine Sense? But they're all mortals here… Well, Mana Sense can do the trick, but not to this extent?
??"I detected them too." The leader said, as she quickly gathered her Mana and then materialized it, it was pure mana without any element.
