When Nana takes off her hood, her blond hair unfolds. Toruma-shi is dazzled by her, and Hayuna elbows him. So he's really being kept on a short leash by Hayuna-san.Nana is holding the baby in her arms after receiving permission from Hayuna-san. She looks completely content. She looks as if she's a holy mother--if she doesn't talk."She's so fluffy, and soft nano desu. Master, I want to have a young organism too.""Let's talk about that after this journey is over.""Masuta?""It's my nickname."Afterwards, the Toruma couple were interested in Nana's eccentric way of speaking, but when I told them that she lived a sheltered life in a distant land which made her poor in the Shiga language, they assented. I told them that her meal was only water because her body was weak. Toruma couple seem to be thinking that Nana and I are a married couple. I leave that misunderstanding alone since there's no particular harm anyway."This is delicious. It's full of rural taste, but the abundant meat is
The night has been cold for the past few days, so the couple is sleeping inside the wagon. Leaving aside Ossan, it'd be troubling if Hayuna-san caught a cold and infected the baby.The combination for the night watch duty today is different than usual.Usually, Mia, Lulu, and I are the first, then Pochi, Tama, and Nana for the second, and then Liza and Kagari for the last, but today, Mia is replaced with Kagari."What are you making?""It's Circuit Liquid."In most textbooks they're only called magic liquid or Liquid.The one I'm making now is different from normal Liquid. I'm making the recipe hidden in that bundle of papers.Yup, even though the raw materials are different, the way of making it is the same as normal Liquid."Fuh~n, huh? Isn't it usually shining red?"Kagari is quite observant. I don't answer Kagari since I'm concentrating right now. I continue putting magic while watching the Liquid shine blue.I pour the finished Liquid into the Circuit carved on one half of the wo
Pochi and the girls come to change places with us since the time is up. Kagari says, "I'll be watching you so you don't go out in the night." and takes up the position beside me to sleep together. Usually, I would toss her, but since she's done well during the negotiation with Ossan today, I'll let her off for once, though this is not a reward.Of course, I warn her that if she tries to sexually harass me, I'll tie and hang her on a tree.Since even Lulu is taking the position on the opposite side while saying, "M, me too, I'll watch too.", requesting while fumbling her words, we end up looking like a character for River.I hope 5 years pass fast.Contrary to my expectations, Kagari went to sleep without trying to do anything funny.If she's always like this, I'll let her sleep together anytime.I check on the demon's movement before I go to sleep.It's loitering around at the castle and the thieves in the forest like usual, but sometimes, it produces a level 1 split body (Splitter) a
"I promise, it won't be dangerous."If it's just me alone then it'd be alright. The opponent is just a level 30. Moreover, I have a magic attack and magic shield, not only physical now."No, I'll go with you."That's bad. The demon is in the forest right now, but I don't know when it's going to be back. I want to leave Kagari in the safe zone."If you say further than that, I'll use 『Order』.""Try it, my maiden's heart won't lose to such a thing like 『Order』."It can't be helped.I didn't want to use 『Order』 as much as possible."Kagari, this is an order. Go to the village I've said earlier and ask the mayor about the work. Wait in the village until I get there."After telling so, I go down the wagon.I hear something falling on the ground behind me along with Lulu's short scream.When I turn around, I see Kagari crawling here while her face becomes blue."I w, will absolutely go with you. This time... I won't... Let you go alone... Ha."By disobeying my order, she's not only tormente
Two horse-drawn carriages have come from the baron to pick us up. Either of them is a two-seater carriage. The doors are carved with relief that looks like it'd make stylish nobles happy and also adorned with golden stones that seem like jewels.Hayuna couple get on separate rides from us.I've known it from a preliminary check already, but this city is too deserted. Even though it's almost twice the size of Seryuu City, the population is only around 1/6 of it. Houses are standing in rows as we leave the gate, but in the middle of the way, a series of vacant lots covered with weeds unfold."There are many vacant lots huh.""Sir, are you familiar with the incident 20 years ago?""Yeah, although I don't know how much of it is true, I've heard the general rumor.""Most of it is probably the truth. The vacant lots were the result of the king's armies setting fire in the city to destroy the many undead who were attacking."The coachman answered my question while facing the road. His voice
"Father and sister are being tricked."How many times have I told this to them? Yet, my words didn't reach anyone. And now, those vulgar ruffians are strutting this castle like it's their own.Maybe that's why. I feel like something is calling me, and I've strayed to the old, old collapsed building inside the castle.It's an old building that has been around in this Marquis Muno castle since 20 years ago.It has already been 15 years since my father received this territory. My mother, sister and me arrived in this castle 16 years ago, we've never left even once since then. The time when Uncle Toruma came to play during my childhood was the most fun time.Even though it's called a castle, there are small forest and a pond inside its grounds, maybe it's to show the power of a marquis, so I don't really feel locked up.I've searched through the inside of the castle, but this is the first time I'm here. Usually, the maid will not let me inside saying, "It's dangerous."I wonder if this is
I knew that the baron's castle was wide from the map, but after I actually went inside it, it was more vast than I'd imagined. There is a forest and a big pond that occupy about three times more area than the castle.People only occupy a few percent of the whole area, won't the maintenance be hard I wonder?Hayuna-san and co. had been separated from us since they didn't get involved in the trouble.We're heading toward a four-story big mansion on the hill in the same area, not the castle. There's no problem since Baron, Hayuna-san and the others are there.Of course, the fake hero is also near the baron.The split body of the demon is also there, but it doesn't get close to the baron. The real body is inside the forest as usual. Seems that it doesn't participate in the battle and only lets the goblin soldiers do it. I wonder if it's enjoying them killing each other?The carriage enters the rotary in front of the mansion while I'm thinking so.Although there is no red carpet spread, ar
Thanks to Pochi, we've become closer to the baron family, and with Ossan's help, I'm checking various things with the baron, but..."Then, you didn't issue an order to collect congratulatory gifts from the people?""Of course. I've heard from the consul that this year we have a bad harvest. If we do such things, the people would starve."In fact, the people are abandoning the children and the elderly."Do you know that every village is selling their people to the extent that merchants even avoid them?""Fumu, I can't say that every village is prosperous, but we aren't collecting tax to the point that they would starve. And this year, in accordance with the consul's suggestion, we should have shared food to them though?"The villagers that I've met are all thin, from the serf to the village head. I don't think that the village head is embezzling food."There was a girl who jumped out in front of our carriage today. The coachman said that carriages were not to be stopped even if it woul
Both of the masks have been broken, so I put on a white mask that Kagari made for cosplay at her request. I feel like I know where the inspiration for it comes from, but it seems like it'd fall off easily, scary. I put on cheap clothes and a mantle, and head toward the hall's exit.The hall looks disastrous to the point that I admire it for not collapsing.The floors are turned upside down, several pillars are destroyed, and many places have become craters. Some of the craters have glasses formed from Furnace Flame (Forge). There isn't any trace of the altar.I should say as expected of a demon lord. I've just barely won even though my level is three times as high and fully loaded with items.It's unfortunate that I won't get a rematch--I don't have even the slightest bit of such thought.Fortunately, the opponent was a type weak with magic, but if it was strong in both points, I might have lost.I'll go watch the tournament at the capital and study sword techniques and battle forms.
It's probably the effect of the demon's unique skill. The demon has revived as an undead. The demon's upper body which should have been lost has also regenerated in the blink of an eye. There's no worth in defeating this guy.The two liuyedao were lost somewhere when I destroyed the upper body earlier, thankfully.I do have several trump cards, but since I don't know how many times the demon can revive, I won't recklessly use them. It's painful that one MP recovery potion only recovers 20% of my MP with one bottle.From now on, I'll charge magic swords and the holy swords whenever I'm free."It has been since Yamato that I have to resort to using Banpufutou's effect. O Nanashi, perchance you can beat me? Yamato took the heavenly dragon's lot along to attack my castle. You alone intend to be the equivalent of a hero and heavenly dragon."Fumu, since my name is blank, it's [Nanashi]. I guess I'll call myself Nanashi from now on.Thanks to the HP potion and self-healing skill, my wounds
"What's wrong, are you so scared you can't talk?"Moreover, she's swinging her arms matching her speaking rhythm, so her exposed breasts are shaking and swaying. I can't help but become interested in it since a while ago. Yup, they're big relative to her age."O black-haired hero. I do not care why you're hiding your appearance, but can you entertain me like Yamato? I won't forgive you if you bore me."I wonder if she has see-through skills, the girl's eyes are shining red.I'm sorry for the possessing demon who's trying to set up the mood, but at this time, I'm not thinking, "How do I defeat the enemy", but, "How do I get this fellow out of the girl's body", instead.I wonder if I could do something with Saint's title and magic healing somehow?It might be good to learn ways to exorcise demons. It'd be terrible if someone I know got possessed.Let's use persuasion skills here--I've also thought of such thing. Before I could open my mouth, the girl's time was up."Thanks for making my
A person who looks to be a leader-type is scolding us with a rough voice in front of the door that leads to the ritual room. The scolding is over quickly, I slip in with the society members to go into the door.I've thought of this since I mixed in a while ago, but they're full of leaks.They don't look like a group that would do such outrageous things as summoning items from hell. There's something mismatched about this. I wonder if there's someone who's pulling the string from behind?Well, whatever.There are probably only a few places where they can hold the ritual, so if I destroy this place, people who are thinking of doing misconducts will lay low.The ritual room is wide. The width is 200 meters, the height is 20 meters, and the depth is nearly 1 kilometer long. Of course, there are a lot of standing pillars, but they sure are strong for supporting such enormous weight. Is it due to [Fixture Magic]?My thought had wandered off for a bit.The nearly 200 men and women inside the
The ship carrying us is anchored at a place where the capital's night view can be seen. The port is crowded due to the tournament season, so we're waiting our turn. It seems the duke has issued an order to prioritize ships that are carrying supplies, there are a lot of other anchored ships.Since the captain has gotten the right to enter the port first thing in the morning tomorrow, it looks like we could enter the port without waiting tomorrow.Everyone was watching the night view until just now, but since the youth trope began to doze off, I made them turn back to the room.I hear light footsteps, I look back, and there's Kagari."You're going after all?""Ah."I answer briefly to Kagari who's giving off a strange atmosphere."I can't imagine you'd fall off against opponents at the level of short horn, but absolutely don't let your guard down, okay?""Ah, I know. Or rather, I'm going for it before the short-horn demons could appear."We wouldn't be able to tour the capital relaxed i
A birdman who's flying near the water's surface as if gliding passes over the ship.Pochi and Tama are waving their hands to the point as if they'd get torn off. It seems the birdman is also giving a service, he makes several turns and does a full revolution before flying away.I'm afraid that the two will fall since they lean forward too much while waving their hands, but since Liza seizes the girdle, it's probably alright.Even if they fall, there's [Float] that I've learned recently so it's fine, but there's no need for them to fall in the first place.It's basically a leisure on the ship.Yesterday, the ship was attacked by two aquatic monsters, but before we could go out, the Gillman soldiers who were escorting the ship cleaned it up. There was also a pirate group, the river version, that was going to attack on the river branch, but I attacked them with Short Stun from afar, and their boat got capsized the end.Since it's generally peaceful like that, I continue practicing signal
I'm waving my hands on top of the departing ship. It's not only Princess Menea and her escorts that have come to see us off, but even the viceroy couple and Miss Ririna.There were imprudent young nobles and hooligans that they had hired aiming for Liza's spear waiting in the harbor, but the viceroy soldiers skilfully arrested them before they could cause harm to us. It seemed Miss Karina's maids had notified the viceroy beforehand after they heard about some disturbing rumors.The nobles had probably seen Liza's spear during the fight with the demon yesterday, but they were really confident if they thought they could go against her even after seeing that fight.I want to leave miss Karina too if possible, but my reputation would become bad if I do leave my employer's daughter, so I give up."Fufufuhn, you've raised and collected flags of the new character huh! She should just disappear after this."New character... Please don't like a person with characters."Are you still thinking a
"Well then, everyone, please enjoy the specialties of Gugurian."The viceroy says so signaling the start of the banquet.The people in this dining room are the viceroy, his wife and his retainers, gentlemen and ladies--who are of course nobles with peerages. The guests are Princess Menea, Poni-san who acts as her escort,and also lady Karina and me. The influential people in the city are only invited when it's a buffet party.By the way, only adults are allowed to participate in the banquet and party, their children aren't.The dining table is decorated with flowers, and two maids accompany each guest. The tableware is silver knives, spoons, and forks. Besides the knife that looks like an extremely common dagger, the spoon, and the fork are like the ones used in the previous world. There is only one set of the tableware for each plate, but it gets exchanged with new ones when you've finished your meal it seems.The room is lit with magic light. It's not with magic tools, but a magicia
The princess' entourages, Yui and Aoi pondered if I, who's called Rin and has black hair and black eyes, was a Japanese. It doesn't seem that they're aware of Kagari's name.The girl before me, Yui, is summoned from the Southern Japan Federation in a country separated to north and south. The kind of country's setting that's often found in fictitious military stories. It seems to be a real country from what she's said, I guess I shouldn't say 'setting' out loud.However, I've thought that I could easily go home if I just went to Saga empire, but if there are parallel worlds, I have to rethink my plan. Although from the start, I don't intend to go back until after the livelihood of Kagari, Liza, and the others are guaranteed here, so it's fine."By Japan, do you mean the illustrious country referred to by hero?""Rin isn't from one?""My house has always given the name of the eldest son, Rin, for generations long. It's said that our ancestor is a Saga Empire hero, but there's no hero ca
