## Summary

The Headhunter heads to the Great Demon's Den as the man who hired her said that Lexia was rumored to be visiting it again soon and her "helper" would too, and that would be her chance to off both of them. So now, she's scouting the area for the assault and hoping to get a clue on the "helper"'s identity. However, she underestimated how dangerous the forest is, and now she's all dirty from fighting. She finds a watering hole and starts washing herself off, where she gets ambushed by Goblin Elites.

In the real world, Yuuya tells Night that he's thinking about a magic that would allow him to move instantly from one place to another, but he hasn't been able to find out the method of doing so. He decides to take a break from it and visit the other world, but when he stands before the door, he gets an "eureka" moment. He combines the magical spells **Memorized Location**, **Gate**, and **Transfer** and creates a portal to allow him to teleport to wherever he has been to previously. With it, he can meet Lexia at the promised meeting time. He also decides to do some more exploring so he can increase the range of locations he can instant teleport to.

Just then, Night stares in a direction and Yuuya realizes there's a fight going on. He rushes to the scene and sees the Headhunter being chased by the goblins. He tries to help her but Night holds him back, and he sees it's because she is fending for herself using her threads. Despite her skills, she acknowledges she's outnumbered, and one of them gets the drop on her with a feint, blasting her into a tree and knocking her out.

Before the goblins can devour her, Yuuya finally steps in and strikes the monsters with a weapon called **Sky Whip**, chasing them off. He decides to get the Headhunter to a safer place but becomes flustered when he realizes she's naked. Still, he gets her somewhere else and she wakes up. She sees Yuuya and asks if he defeated the goblins by himself, but he nervously tells her he tried to avoid looking at her too much as he carried her. She realizes her state of undress and the two become very embarrassed, but he gives her a healing potion to recover from her injuries. She, at first, is suspicious of it because she can't read the labels and the potion is in a container she's never seen before, but Yuuya tries to prove his honesty by offering to drink it himself. The Headhunter, however, decides to trust him, figuring that if Yuuya had any ulterior motives, he would have done them while she was unconscious.

After her injuries are healed, the Headhunter regains her clothes and as she gets dressed, she thanks Yuuya for helping her and introduces herself as "Luna". Yuuya introduces himself and Night and Luna asks if he is a noble because of his surname, but Yuuya explains it is a custom from his hometown, causing her to think he's a foreigner. Yuuya asks Luna what she's doing in the Great Demon's Den, and Luna, not wanting to tell him her intentions, says she was "training." When she asks what HE'S doing, Yuuya says he was training too, as he also couldn't tell her where he came from.

With both of them thinking they are training, Yuuya asks Luna if she could find somewhere safer to train, but she says it wouldn't be any good for her. She then proposes that they train together, that way the two can cover each other if they fall under attack. Yuuya agrees, not wanting Luna to be alone in the forest, but he advises she rest and regain her stamina. Luna accepts and shakes his hand, happy to be working with him for a while. However, she apologizes when she realizes she dirtied his hand with her own, and Yuuya offers her to take a bath. Luna becomes confused by Yuuya's offer as he pulls out his portable bath, leaving her dumbfounded that he could own such a thing she previously believed was exclusive to nobles, and from destroying a monster as powerful as a Crystal Deer.

Ultimately, Luna accepts Yuuya's offer and uses the bath, while himself and Night stand guard. Luna is left in a state of bliss in using it.
