It still feels surreal that we are now living here in Alternate World, not as a player but as a denizen here for the time being. It felt like we just got isekaied on purpose. But this is for the safety of everyone and to also prevent whatever Nobuhiko is planning. If he is willing to resort to any unconventional means just to make sure that he can obtain his goal, it's clear that he just wanted to do something for himself that would potentially harm the world.
But this is just hurting my brain even more. I decided to just rest and have some good sleep. Since this world is going to be the world we will be living in until the time we will reach the end of our journey, then, I will have to ensure that I enjoy my life here.
"Ha, you keep thinking things that are more complicated than the world's problems yet from the looks of it, it's just a simple problem that anyone can easily solve. Why would you rather suffer more then?" Cath Palug appeared as he exited the Summon's Area.
"Hey, who said that you can just go out freely like this?" I frowned.
"Ha, and who said I can't? I may have been sealed by the damnable Merlin in this form but I can still do what I wanted to do so don't be too quick on judging things like that. Besides, I just came out and didn't do anything. Don't assume I will immediately do something troublesome. I also like to relax as well."
I only shook my head. Even though this guy is pretty tame, the moment he will go back to his tendencies, I will not hesitate to let the Shadow Dragon eat this guy.
"You are looking for the Tree of Life huh? I didn't know that tree will come to action once again after all the years have passed. You, humans, are still primeval people back then and don't know jack sh*t yet but this tree seems to be the one causing troubles back then that even the two gods start to fight each other for it."
"Two gods?" I frowned. This is new information for me.
"Yep. The goddess of life and the goddess of death. Both tried to fight each other but for different reasons."
"Wait, wait, I thought the tree was made by the Goddess of Life?"
"She made it? Ha, as if. All that I know is that the tree existed even before the Primordial times, it's even older than me. And it existed before the two goddesses as well."
"Tell me more!" I urged Cath Palug to tell me more information.
"Nah, too lazy. I will go and sleep for now. If you want to know more, then wait until I am good to narrate once more. For now, that information stays in me until then."
After that, Cath Palug left the room, possibly to find a better place to sleep, leaving me pondering on the new situation.

The next morning, I felt my whole body refreshed. It was like I slept much better compared to before. I stretch around and went down to go to the kitchen. I don't know how big the impact on me is, losing the high-level ex-job that helps me in cooking.
There are a few ingredients that Gobu's wife collected and bought from the market so the container is pretty much full of good stuff. And so, I started cooking without the need for those Ex-Jobs.
But it turns out to be completely fine. Even without it, the food I made came out fine and delicious. As a result of my cooking that morning, everyone came down to eat breakfast as well. Even Almira who usually sleeps pretty late and wakes up pretty late as well woke up and joined us for the meal.
I didn't forget to also feed everyone in the Summon's Area. Aside from my pets who went outside to eat, the rest are eating the food I made. Even the Cult Leader that I defeated before is eating with her brother now and I am fine with that.
While eating, I decided to discuss the matter with our levels.
"Alright, time to address this now. Everyone seems to have gotten used to their bodies in fighting right? Then, I think we should earn back our levels once more and reach level 300 once again."
"It's going to be an arduous task, Manato. Just remember that we have spent 4 years before we reached those levels," Pandora who is quiet before started to discuss things with us now.
"Yes, I know. But we are not going to just fight somewhere and level up. We will be recovering all of them without wasting 4 years."
"Don't tell me, we will be farming on the dark sea then?" Riko guessed.
"Yep. With the monsters there is pretty much an experience trove and also a treasure trove as well, farming there will allow us to quickly climb back up on our previous selves."
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm "But Manato, Dark Sea is pretty much a dangerous place for us, especially in our levels, we will die in one hit there!" Father objects.
"I know, which is why we will be utilizing the power of all of my followers and pets. With them, we can relax and farm until we get to a high level enough for us to do it ourselves."
"So boosting? We will have to level boosting to finish it?" Riko asked.
"That's the best way. We will level fast enough with our current levels so it won't take us long to reach level 200 or more in a few hours."
Plus, due to my title, all of my party members will get the effects as well and will be able to quickly level up soon.
"It's not a bad plan. Not only will this allow us to be strong, but we will also be able to have an easy time with our people as well. Elves only recognize people and humans who are capable or stronger than them. If not for our experiences back in your homeworld, we wouldn't be this open-minded and we will remain as the elves who only acknowledge the strong," Labo added.
"Elves were like that? You guys seemed nice to us, how come I only knew after this?" Rika asked and glances at Renatta whom she has been the longest out of the three.
"Well, Labo is indeed right. We acknowledge the strong. Even for me as well. Though it all changed as that was a very unhealthy mindset after realizing it."
"Wow, seriously, Renatta-chan? I didn't know that. Is it because of Manato you guys were fine?"
"Yes. Because Manato showed prowess and capability, I believed and agreed to get help from him. If not, I might have left after you guys rescued me, which would have been a very bad decision for us. If I have done that, I might not even be able to return to my homeworld."
I was surprised at Renatta's revelation but knowing this is good enough to know. Since we are still weak right now, we will indeed need the operation to recover our strength and abilities.
"So, now that we have discussed this matter, is anyone who doesn't want to do this and decline? After breakfast, we will be heading to the dark sea soon."
Everyone stayed quiet and everyone agreed.
"Then, let's finish eating so that we can go and finish our situation as soon as possible. We have a quest to finish."
...

Just like our plan, we are going to power boost our levels so that we reach level 200 and above so that we can recover our former strength. With Leona as our "vehicle", we entered the Luminous Continent and headed to the secret area where the Dark Sea is located and the place where the enemies are strong and the drops and experience points gained from killing one monster are enough to level fast.
Almira left since she is already past level 300 already which is why she has no interest in leveling up. Instead, she gave us a task to gather materials to use for the upcoming project. With the monsters dropping various materials here, she just asked the right people who will gather these materials for free.
"Everyone, we will be counting on you all."
"We will not disappoint Master. We will ensure the safety of everyone while you all will regain the levels that you all lost," Atlas bowed down.
"You will not be disappointed, Master! We will repay all the effort you have given to us to reach these heights," Lina also bowed down as well.
I then turned to everyone.
"Alright, for this to work, everyone has to attack the monsters once using the stones that you guys pick on the ground. They deal 0 to 1 damage to enemies so they don't cause much trouble for you all like being targeted. Once you guys have thrown the rocks at the enemies, the rest will do their jobs."
Everyone picked up rocks for them to use. Now, we will begin our job at recovering our levels.
