A few days after the shop’s opening.The shop was doing great, without any troubles.The only problems were the potato and cheese stocks.I left the shop in Morin-san’s and Tirumina-san’s hands and went to the villages that made cheese and produced potatoes.The nearest one was the village that produced potatoes.I hopped on kurone and arrived there in less than half an hour.kurone’s speed had definitely increased.I was right, it increased when my level increased. When I became stronger, my summoned beasts became stronger, too.While thinking about that, I arrived close to the village gate and saw people going in and out. Thanks to my habit, I accidentally approached the gate while riding kurone."Who are you?!"A man standing near the gate shouted while looking at me.He must have been shocked, first thinking that a Cat was approaching the village, and then, when it came closer, seeing a girl in a Cat-suit riding it.Even I would be shocked if I saw something like that."I am Nicol
The shop was now doing well even without me, so I didn’t have to go there recently.The sales were great, Morin-san was trying to make new types of bread, and the children, who had gotten used to the work, were now doing it happily.We also increased the number of new dishes.Rurina-san and Gill also went back to their adventurer jobs.The two of them left Deborane’s party and accepted jobs alone or made temporary parties.They often came to the store as customers.I didn’t have anything to do, so I decided to go to the capital using the transfer gate.Even though the birthday party had ended, there were still a lot of people there.I went to the castle to take pudding to Princess Flora.When I arrived at the gate, the soldiers seemed to remember me and gave a relaxed greeting as I approached them."I want to go inside, is that okay?"I presented my guild card to them.There was a permit to enter the castle on my guild card, so that I could enter without any problems.When the guard a
"Are you really going there?"Terumi-san asked me with a worried look .At the orphanage, I told Terumi-san and Marie that I would go to the sea by crossing the mountain range."I want to see the sea, after all. That’s why, I will leave the shop in your hands."Even if I didn’t specifically say it, the shop was already under Terumi-san’s and Morin-san’s care. Even if I wasn’t here, there wouldn’t be any problems.To prove it, I gradually reduced the number of times I went to the store."That’s fine, but Erezento’s mountain range is steep, you know.""If I really find it dangerous, I will come back here. Not to mention, with Kurone, Shirone, and everything else, there won’t be any problems.""Big Sis Nicole…"Marie also looked extremely worried."There will be no problems. When things calm down a little on the other side of the mountain, I will contact you."I took two palm-sized cat Figurines from the cat Box and gave one to Marie."This is?""It’s a cat Phone that can call anywhere.
There were people in this snowstorm.They were probably adventurers like me.Did they come all the way here to kill some monsters?Thinking that it would be a pain if they attacked out of surprise after seeing Shirone, I decided to pass by them without making contact, but the signal from the detection magic didn’t move.Were they camping?It was hard to believe that they would be moving during a snowstorm.It was possible that there was a cave and they were just taking a break.Then, wouldn’t it be fine if I just continued on my way?In the end, after thinking deeply about what to do, I decided to continue advancing towards them .The storm was becoming stronger and stronger.Using the detection magic, I finally arrived near the signal.There was no cavern nor large boulders in sight, nowhere you could hide. In addition to that, nobody was standing around here. Still, the detection magic was reacting.The only thing I could think was that they were buried under the snow.Wasn’t that r
When I blew away the snow that piled up in front of the cave, we were met with beautiful weather.The weather was so beautiful, it was as if the snowstorm was just a dream.It was to the point that it was almost too bright for an ex-hikikomori like me.I asked the two of them to leave the cave before I put away the Cat House.When I left the cave, the two were having problems walking on the fresh snow."Nicole-chan, what will you do about your house?"Since we had grown closer during yesterday’s meal, they were now using 『chan』 instead of 『san』.It was more comfortable for me this way."I made it with magic, so I can put it away with magic as well.""Nicole-chan, you are really a strong adventurer, aren’t you?""I am just a normal, rank D adventurer, you know."It was a really dubious phrase, if I had to say so myself.If there were any other adventurers wearing a Cat suit, going through the snowy mountain alone, and even bringing out a house, I would really want to meet them."Then,
After filling my belly with a delicious dinner, the uncle led me to my room.Since there were a lot of vacant rooms, he let me take the biggest single room for the price of a normal room.I plunged into the large bed, took out the cat Phone, and called Marie in Crimonia to tell her that I had arrived in Mireera.Marie was relieved to hear that I arrived safely.I didn’t want to make Marie worried, so I didn’t tell her about the Kraken, or the state of the city.I just told her that I wouldn’t be returning to town for a while.When I opened my eyes the next morning, I saw a big white ball and a big black ball on my bed.Taking a better look, they were Shirone and Kurune that were sleeping on the bed curled in a ball shape.I remembered that I summoned them yesterday as crime prevention.A 15-year-old maiden was sleeping alone. This sort of precaution was necessary.However, the cats were sleeping so soundly. Would they wake me up if something happened?I trusted them though.I petted t
Atora-san told me that there were more than 20 bandits.She didn’t know what they looked like because they concealed their faces.They didn’t attack if you had guards.However, if you didn’t have any, they would strike.She didn’t know how strong the bandits were, because no one had ever tried to fight them.The bandits stalked the coastline road from the mountain.She only knew that their base was somewhere on the mountain. Well, I just had to use Detection magic to find them."Are there any captives?""I think there are some women who have been caught. Only corpses of men had been found, after all."This statement killed my peace of mind.If they only took money, I would just beat them half dead, but they were killing men and kidnapping women.That was enough of a reason for them to be on my anger list."But will you really go and try to defeat them alone? Well, after seeing your guild card, I think it should be okay."She said, seemingly worried.I was a small girl wearing a cat Su
After I finished handing over the wolves, I returned to the inn.Today’s meal was Macho’s cuisine again, so my belly was bulging once more.I was going to subjugate the bandits tomorrow, so I decided to sleep early.I summoned the two cats in cub form for crime prevention."Shirone, Kurune, I am counting on you two."The two came up next to me and curled up into balls.I started sleeping between the two.*Petchi Petchi*, *Petchi Petchi*.Something soft was tapping my cheek.*Petchi Petchi*, *Petchi Petchi*.I brushed it off and felt soft fur.A blanket?I hugged it.It was warm.As I embraced it, something covered my face.I couldn’t brush it away.It became more and more difficult to breathe, so I woke up."What is it!?"When I woke up, the two cats were sticking to my face."What? You two, do you have a bad sleeping habit?"When I said that, the two cats started whining, making"Kuuーn"sounds."Is it possible that someone came?"The cats started making the same "Kuu~n" noise a second
