《Other World’s Monster Breeder》
Chapter 1
Where is this ce?
When I open my eyes, an unrealistic scene can be seen.
What Im standing on is. The top of a cloud?
Looking at it, its a white fluffy body that surrounds my bare feet.
The soft, chilly touch of the cloud makes me realize that this world isnt a dream.
Just some time ago, I was enjoying anime and amusing myself .
Why am I in such a ce?
Wee. To Heaven.
The voice of a dignified woman is heard with the feeling of the divine kind.
Turning towards the voice, there was a beautiful young girl with blonde hair and blue eyes you could mistake for goddess-sama from the worlds myths.
I wonder if its some anime character cosy?
The girl was d in fluttery clothing separated from the transient world.
Excuse me. Where is this? Or perhaps I should say, who are you?
E~tto Hey, hey, werent you listening to me? As I said before, this is Heaven. You have been carefully selected by your examination results to go to a different world!
Sticking out herrge chest, the girl continues.
And now..About your other question, I am pleased that you asked about that. My name is Aphrodite, the Goddess of Beauty! The navigating existence that will send you off to another world!
How serious are you?
Wait, I dont quite understand what is being said.
Goddess? Different world?
What is this girl saying?
Well. Its an understandable reaction. A piece of junk like you would be confused, dying a dogs death and then being sent to a different world! Understanding this type of thing is faster by experiencing it instead of trying to exin. Try to pray for the status screen to open in your mind!
While not satisfied in my mind, I decide to obey Aphrodite.
At which point

Suddenly, the words appeared clearly in my consciousness.
Reading the sentences carefully, it looks like a status screen from a game world.
What? This is.
In my mind, the status screen that appeared fits perfectly with no signs of disappearing.
It is a strange feeling that cannot be experienced in the real world.
At first I thought it to be suspicious, a self-proimed goddess saying Different world but I can feel a tinge of credibility.
Fufufu. Monster Tamer? Its an upation that its doubtful it could even knock down a slime on its own. My condolences.
Come again?
Heres a good thing. I will you teach specially! The different world that you are being sent to, , when you are born there is a job change to suit your aptitude! By the way, your profession of Monster Tamer is baggage weight no use at all! Its a useless profession that suits someone who was an anime-watching NEET back on earth.
A-annoying.
This woman, Aphrodite or something, it is without doubt that if she closed her mouth she would be a peerless beauty but her various behaviours are a shame.
And I am not a NEET.
While its true I y games every day, It can be seen that I am still a student actively attending high school.
Alright.
Lets reorganise the current situation.
Coming here, the feeling of reality has finally emerged.
Apparently, the ce where I am standing is really Heaven. Aphrodite seems to be here with the intention ofing to send me to a different world.
I have no idea how it became like this, this realistic unfavourable development. It seems as though the possibility of a shocking encounter is low.
By the way, its written in my status screen, what is this Capsule Ball?
Capsule Ball Grade G Active
(By throwing and hitting the of a monster, there is a chance of the envement skill urring. Once the envement has been activated, the monster can no longer cause harm to the master.
Acquisition conditions
The moment after I thought about it.
It seems that questioning is a trigger for the status screen to show the effects of skill.
When I pray for in my mind , a translucent sphere the size of a baseball is created.
The design reminds me of the nostalgic gachapon capsules from my childhood.
Capsule Ball is one of the basic skills of a Monster Tamer. When hit by a thrown ball, theres a chance for a monster to be enved.
Hmmm. I wonder
Knowing so, I want to do various experiments.
She brought me to a ce i dont understand where it is, and abused me.
I decide to throw the capsule ball at Aphrodite to serve as my revenge.
. Yes? (tl: . Hai?)
Aphrodite lets out a small cry as I throw a capsule ball.
Although I threw it quite slowly, the capsule ball superbly hit Aphrodites body.
Owch-! Wait just a minute What did you do!? However you put it, as Im not a monster, there is no meaning in throwing the capsule ball which can only capture monsters at me.
Immediately following that, something strange happened.
Kyaaaaaaaaaaa!? No, no! Wait! Its a lie!? Why!?
The capsule ball that I threw suddenly emits a dazzling light and Aphrodite is sucked in.
Result.
Before she knows it, Aphrodites body enters the small capsule ball.
Kora-! Let me out! This is sphemy against God! (tl; kora oi, hey!)
Aphrodite randomly pulls out a pillow and begins to knock on the wall of the used capsule with a don don sound.
By the way, Aphrodite who is inside the ball has shrunk down to eraser size.
Id really love to, however
I dont know the method to get you out.
UUUuuu. Please! Im begging you, take me out this instant!
Aphrodite has teary-eyes.
Speaking honestly, I cant make heads or tails of the situation. (tl; not a literal trantion.)
When I thought I was suddenly called to Heaven, I was told to go to a different world and was suddenly made into a monster tamer.
However.
With everything said and done, I can say this catchphrase.
Kami-sama! Get!

Chapter 2
Before I knew it, there were wide grassy ins which continue as far as the eye can see.
I was skeptical, but seeing it with my own eyes but somehow or another, it seems I truly have been summoned to another world.
The evidence that this world is different from earth lies in the different nts and the sun that lights up the sky, is blue.
By the way.
What should be done?
If I reference knowledge from games, the first step should be to aim for the city.
Due to my good fortune, I can see people moving to and fro along the road around me.
If I were to follow this road, someday wont I reach a street where people live?
Its a monster.
When I walked along the path that was cleared momentarily, I discovered a less than 50cm height green muscled chibi.
It seems it hasnt seen me from the other side.
What should I do? Should I fight?
Speaking of Goblins, in game-worlds they are monsters that appear quite early in the opening.
It may be the most suitable opponent for a test battle.
However.
The upation I gained upon being summoned to this world is Demon Tamer
I have a hunch its different from the usual hitting from the front.
If this was an online game, there would be a navigating tutorial that exins everything but
Reality does not follow ones whims. (tl; not literal.)
No. Wait
I have the clever idea of using the Capsule Ball.
Ooh. As I thought, it is there.
Looking carefully, the beautiful blonde Aphrodites figure can be seen inside the capsule ball.
YOIt seems like we meet again!
Fue?
Aphrodite was blinking in surprise as she was sitting with her arms around her knees with an expression saying Dont know whats what. (tl; likethis)
Hey! You! What. Whats with this!?
No. At that time I was bad. I didnt mean any ill-will. Forgive me.
Aphrodite is shaking as she grabs my cor while issuing sounds that do not be words.
How should I put it, making noise in this ce! Well be noticed by the monster on the other side
Haa? A monster?
Aphrodite finally releases my clothes and directs her gaze over in the monsters direction.
Monster. Hah-! At best its a goblin.
At best Is it possible that Aphrodite is incredibly strong, by any chance?
Its only natural. Am I not a goddess? It is not possible for me to fall behind a monster!
Oh. Thats reassuring! In that case, to begin with, can you get rid of the goblin?
It cant be helped-. When its finished, youll hear variouints!
When Aphrodite face towards the direction of the goblin *tokotoko * and started walking, she thrust her hand towards the sky in an exaggerated manner.
Pitifulmb. Receive the judgement of the original goddess of beauty, Aphrodite! Gods Breath!
She speaks a cool signature phrase.
However
From those words she spoke cheerfully.
Far from Gods breath, not even a soft breeze blows.
R-Ridiculous! Gods breath! Gods breath!
Aphrodite continues to speak the skill name, but no change can be seen in the surroundings.
On the contrary, due to therge noise( her shouts), it resulted in this ce being suspected by the goblin.
Souta H-Hwelp me Hwelp me (tl:)
.
The goblin was attracted by the crying Aphrodite whose clothes were fluttering.
This goddess really Does not seem to be reliable for anything.
Chapter 3
In the end.
Aphrodite failed to take care of the goblin, so I decided to do it.
It does not seem to evolve to the level of the superior human being.
As I made use of my superior constitution to nt a kick onto its head, the goblin didnotmove immediately.
I do not think it can be defeated with one blow.
The demon trainer upation that is said to be the weakest, the feeling is weighing down my shoulders.
Uu~. Why must I go through such an experience.
Aphrodite weakly falls toward the ground while bing teary-eyed.
Etto.. Aphro-san? Dont be discouraged.
Who has an afro!? As you can see, Im smooth and silky!
O, Ou. Is that so?
Opening her eyes wide, Aphrodite stands and face me. * and that!* she shows her hair towards me. I see.
Shown in in such proximity, I can see that her long hair is indeed smooth and silky.
Whats more, it smells good.
By all means, if you want to call me by my abbreviation, I will allow you to call me D. Its better than reluctantly calling me Afro .
I understand. So continuing the talk from earlier, why did youpletely lose to that goblin? I dont really understand in detail but arent Gods very strong?
Uu.. This.
Aphrodite mumbles while averting her eyes.
It seems the events from before are considerably embarrassing for her.
I realized the reason during the time when I checked you and my status just now.
Although I had forgotten, it seems like the ability to release the gods power is only limited to heaven. Its becauseI cannot usegods breath which can cause all things in nature to turn to dust.
You had used such a dangerous magic on the goblin opponent?
I gave a tsukkomi to her as I check the status terminal screen.

It seems that a monster tamer can verify the status of an enved monster.
Compared to the original status, aside from vitality the numerical values were falling across the board.
I had tried reasoning about todays incident. There is a < Absolute control> under your status divine protection?
Ah. Certainly. It was like that.
Capsule Balls impact is too strong that till now I am not worried about it.
Absolute Control Grade Details Unknown
I opened the status terminal screen and as I confirm the wall of text under divine protection, some unusual text flowed up.
Have you realized it? The monster tamer is unfavourable for its condition of Only being able to control basic Monstersis overruled by the Divine Protection Absolute Control.
Nothing but basic demon race can be controlledrule has been overthrown.
Wait.Any race can be contracted? For example, can a human being be contracted?
Of course. It was even effective against me who is a god. I do not think a human being would be able to resist.
Why in the world can I contract a human as a MonsterFamiliar.
The ability that I obtained somehow or anotheris probably nothing but a bug in this world, I guess.
Chapter 4
Returning to the original world?
The highlight so far
I who was summoned to another world seem to have a ridiculous cheat ability.
Just a moment, Souta!? What is your status!?
When I am at my wits end, Aphrodite raises her voice in wonder. (tl; .)

When I open the status screen, my status had risen like crazy.
How. I suddenly increased in levels by a lot. Are goblins actually an existence that give a lot of experience?
That shouldnt be!?If such a monster pops out no-where, it will be scary!
Well, what is it then?
If just one goblin caused the increase in levels by 500, the levels wouldbe inte. (tl;1500)
If its like that, only 1 thinges to mind.
If thats the case, then is it rted to the events in heaven?
Immediately following my words,
Aphrodite sps her hands together, making a pping sound as if to agree.
Thats it! When I was sessfully enved, you were awarded with a huge amount of experience so your level has risen. Well, receiving experience points from the goddess of beauty, that much is to be expected, yo.
.
Aphrodite, with a proud expression, puffs out herrge chest.
Why are you making such an unpleasant face here?
Appraisal eye ss B Active
(The skill which ascertains items and the abilities of organisms that exist in Adelheid.)
Acquisition condition
Ive learned that contracting with Aphrodite has brought about arge amount of experience, it seems.
I waste to notice it, but that new skill Appraisal Eyes has been added to my status.
Besides Spiritual Power, I feel the others are crap for my level.
Hmmm. Its inevitable, isnt it? The reason that monster tamer is called the weakest job is due to its low stats, it appears.
But isnt it fortunate that Soutas level rose? Fortune in misfortune! Perhaps theres a chance to return to the original world earlier than expected.
? What do you mean?
Ara? Did I not say? You were summoned here as the hero to save Adelheid?
Therefore you cant return to the original world until you rescue mankind from the Demon King (Maou) who is predicted to revive in this world. You were sent off to Adelheid with such a rule!
Hearing such a thing for the first time is too much!
It would generally be said before you send someone to the other world!
I want to make sure The Demon King is not yet in this world, no?
Well. Its said that the revival is only a matter of time.
Is it approximately five years ago, I wonder? In preparation for the Demon Kings revival, the Gods send in a hero from another Earth.
How extraordinary.
That besides me, there were other Earthlings summoned elsewhere.!
Still, Subjugation of the demon king.
Though its a standard RPG development, Im reluctant.
Chapter 5
Other Worlds Harem n
Although, I have a single doubt. For example, in the event that I defeat the Demon King and return to Earth, will my abilities as a monster tamer disappear?
Eetto. In that situation, the ability should be taken over. Its impossible for the ability obtained to be taken away, even for a God like me.
Then, I am able to take the monsters from Capsule Ball back with me to Earth?
Well, such a thing is possible. But I believe that in order not to let you abuse your powers, we gods will observe at fixed intervals.
I, after receiving the words from Aphrodite, make 1 big decision from the depths of my heart.
.Yosh. Its decided.
? Whats decided?
The aim. The aim for living in this other world has been decided.
I see. An admirable intention. Its the determination to defeat the Demon King immediately, isnt it?
No. Its different?
Huh-?
Per.. Perhaps you are the type who thinks about not wanting to go back to your original world?
No. Of course I love Japans anime and games and I n to return to Earth.
Then what is it? Did you not hear what I just said? There is no other way to return to your original world besides defeating the Demon King.
Due to Aphrodite hounding at me, I reluctantly exin it.
Listen. As I will only exin it once listen well, okay? My goal is to use this ability in order to take a beautiful girl from this other world back to Earth!
Yes?
Hearing my idea, Aphrodite has an extrarge question mark floating above her head.
ording to Aphrodite, it seems that even after returning to Earth, my ability as a monster tamer will not disappear.
If thats the case, getting a beautiful girl in the capsule ball, its probably possible to take them back to Earth.
I say. Im serious? Building a harem in another world is a mans irreceable romance!
However, I have no intention of staying in a world with neither Air conditioning or Junk food for a long time!
Ill defeat the demon king. However, thats after building my ideal harem in the different world!
Im, Im understanding your meaning less and less! Such a thing cannot be permitted ethically!
Primarily, I who is a god, will not stay silent!
Isnt it good?
What?
You cant return to heaven until the Demon King is defeated? Because, until Ive built the best Harem in the world; I dont intend to defeat the Demon King?
Tsu!?
Realizing the meaning of my words Aphrodite has a look of astonishment.
Aphrodites status certainly may be strong in the heavens, but in this world theres a limiter and she is weakened.
Speaking of which, whether she will go back to heaven or not, as for now, she ispletely taking part in my activities.
Does D want to return to heaven? If so, dont youwant to co-operate with my n?
Dont be an idiot! For me who is a god, its impossible to help with such a vulgar n!
Is that so? Perhaps youll remain in this world your whole life Youll be fine.
When Aphrodite thought quietly for a while, a refreshing smile surfaced on her face as if it was unbounded before long.
It, It cant be helped! Although Im unwilling Ill co-operate with Souta to make a harem!
Alrighty. I thought youd say so!
When I offered my hand, Aphrodite epted.
If there are abandoned gods in this world, there will also be gods waiting to be picked up. (tl:)
Suddenly getting summoned into the other world , I whose path has closed in an instant open up into a straight bright future.
In this way, I and Kami-samae together for the .
Chapter 6
Absolute Control
Following the road, I walked the grassy in for around 1 hour looking for a town.
In this grassy in, it seems like the monster inhabiting it is that 1 goblin type.
ording to Aphrodite.
It seems that the experience gained from making a contract as a monster tamer is the same as if a monster was defeated.
Thats why I decided to excessively hunt goblins.

So far, all the goblins Ivee across are level 1.
As I did not properly inspect it, I cant say for sure, but the number on the right hand side is probably representing the greatest level of the demon.
After immersing myself in the work of capturing goblin with capsules ball, I check my status.

Goblins
Its probably because I had risen too much levels in the beginning huh..
Although I caught 18 goblins, a rise in level is not seen.
The goblins who are caught became eraser-sized roam around inside the capsule ball.
After verifying the capsule ball skill, Ie to an understanding that somehow or another, I can only summon 1 of them.
Gobuu-! Gobuu-! (x3)
Although only 1 can be summoned, I am able to enve several more monsters.
Thats why, as for now.
Some of the 18 goblins walked around in the capsule ball.
The capsule ball boasts arge amount ofnd for the miniaturized monsters.
It seems like due to the space, around 1000 of them can fit into it.
May I have some of your time? I have some thoughts after looking at my status?
What about it?
Is there not some sort of limit for the number of monsters a monster tamer can enve?
Of course a limit exists. The basic one should increase by 1 for each time a level increases by 10.
I see
In other words, the number of demons whom I can enve at the present time is 56?
Eh?
Perhaps.. Arent they already cheat ss at the present moment?
Apart from that, Souta. It was troubling me from a little while ago, can you not summon the goblins you caught? I think with morepanions, battle bes easier.
Hmmm. Right now, Im not having much trouble with fighting.
As for the upation called monster tamer, the status seems to be low generally, but.
Nheless, my level is overkill in this grasnd.
Thinking about it now, receiving the grace from having the status increase, meant the first goblin was defeated in 1 kick.
Aah. No need to worry. The monster tamer can order the contracted monster freely.
.I see. Was there such an effect?
Aphrodite says so with a nonchnt look as though it wasnone of her business.
However, does this girl not have the thing called wariness?
If what she says is true, about wanting to do ero things with this goddess as much as i want.
Its a good opportunity to have a little fun.
Then, as a trial. D. Turn around the spot, will you?
Yes? You, are you making a fool of me? The female goddess of love and beauty, Aphrodite-sama will abide by such a rule of yours ? Ehhh??!
In the middle of her words, Dee spun suddenly. *SFX: Kuru Kuru
Aphrodite who is wearing a dress overflowing with elegance, has an unexpectedly short skirt.
Kyaa-!?
Aphrodites rotation creates a small wind which gently raises her skirt, revealing her pink underwear.
When I issued the order I did not in the slightest expect that.
Aphrodite has be teary eyed.
Uu. UUuuuu. Souta you idiot! What did you do!?
No. Its my bad. It really was to test ifmanding was possible. Its not that I want to do any strangemands. Its like that, so dont get angry.
Certainly, if you limit to just this time, its not like I will not disapprove.
Only this time?
By any chance, you have no intentions to give me, the goddess, lewd orders, am I right?
Aphrodite was red to her ears and panicked.
Hou hou.
Although shes called a goddess, she still has knowledge in that area.
Is that okay? I certainly said that Id participate in the making of Soutas harem! But.but, I didnt say Im entering myself personally as a member!
Is it a g?
No, theres no such thing! ! Stupid Souta!
She hit me with all her force.
Certainly, there is no doubts about the fact that Aphrodite is a peerless beautiful girl. But adding her in as a Harem member has somewhat a different feeling to it.
Its the feeling of a friend rather than a lover.
Therefore, I was caught up in the moment a little this time. I will reflect.

After that.
How far can a human walk?
Aphrodite did not show up after hiding in the capsule a while ago.
Listen. Souta. From now on, I will be basically spending my time in the ball. If you need anything, just call me out.
Thats what Aphrodite said.
Previously, you hated entering the ball but what in the world has happened?
Thats what Im thinking, but there are also variousplex circumstances currently present.
It seems like her lost status returns when she gets inside the capsule ball.
No.
Even I am skeptical about it?
From what Ive just heard, it seems like the capsule ball has a strong healing effect that can remove all of your abnormal states
By entering that sort of thing, there is a possibility of her stats lowering curse weakening.
Furthermore, when inside, the environment has a differentmon sense, you dont get hungry nor thirsty, and all kinds of fatigue/stress wont be umted.
When you peek into the capsule ball, you will see Aphrodite being surrounded by goblins, with a peaceful expression, in a peaceful slumber. Her breathing rising carefreely/easygoing.
Politely bringing her favourite pillow and hay into the ball, she made a bed
With the exception of not being able to freely go in and out, the capsule ball seems to be afortable ce.
Hey, I can see the town.
Due to the promise with her that I will wake her up when I see a town, I let Aphrodite out of the capsule ball.
Mmm~. Five more minutes
You asked me to wake you up, dont go half-asleep
By the way, while Aphrodite was sleeping, I increased the number of goblins to 37.
I feel anxious when I think if its okay to catch that many goblins, but when I see the Goddess I feel I can rely on her.

Those are the words written in the town signboard.

In the city, a variety of monsters such as goblins and orcs were present in addition to the rock turtle.
They have (Working) disyed in their head.
It seems like in this world, the demon is generally used forbor work.
dunno
Dunno?You say
Good boy. Souta. Its a mistake to think that I know everything because Im a Goddess.!Do you know that this world has hundreds of sses of monsters? I dont even have experience in the world below, I wont remember each and every name of monsters you know?!
I practically do not have any experience descending down to earth and I cannot remember each and one of the names of the monsters!
I do know that, but
Why do you look so triumphant?
Its been a bitte to wonder, but is this goddess totally ipetent on the ground?
As I wonder, I checked Aphrodites status.

Hey, under your skills columns, it seems like there is a word Unknown written there. What does it means?
Ah, thats because I use Skill Concealment. My skills cant be seen by others. There are skills that has that kind of effect..
Ooh~As expected from a God-race, you have those kind of skills
Even shes weakened shes still indeed a Goddess
Little by little, Ill try to understand how to live in this world
Though its a little, I understood trying to live in this world
In Adelheid, first of all, above everything else, skills meant everything
If its possible to borrow the power of Aphrodite from the God race, my life in the other world would be easier.
Y-yeah rightAhaha.ahahaha
Hey, why did you avert your eyes?
Uhmm, to tell you the truthmajority of my skills were sealed of by a curse, because Im a God that descended to thend. Thats why I might not have what you expect from me Souta
I see. Well, I expected that you would say that.
Aphrodite has mentioned that the purpose of sending earthlings to the other world is to Subjugate the Demon King
If the God race can use full force in this world, then they should be able to do it on their own.
By the way Souta. I have a question to ask.
Hm? What is it?
Just because I said that I cant use my skill in here. You couldnt be thinking of abandoning me ?
With tears flowing out of her eyes as she look at me worriedly.
When I didnt say anything, Aphrodite visibly shuddered.
I told you that in advance!! I forgot to mention but if you do something cruel to me, you will not die a decent death!
Because I will curse you with all my might and send you to hell! Aphrodite-chan is the heavens number one when ites to cursing other people! Its because of my exclusive reputation!
I get it. As I wont throw you away! AS I WONT THROW YOU AWAY, DONT STICK TO ME SO MUCH!
Good griefwhat an unreliable Goddess-sama.
I have to acquire knowledge without the support of this useless Goddess-sama.
I decided to look for a job in a different world.
Chapter 8
Adventurers guild
ording to knowledge gained from the world of games.
When looking for a ce to work in the different world, there is only one ce to look!
That is the adventurers guild.
Even if the aim is to defeat the Demon King and return to Earth, the first priority is raising funds and strengthening our forces.
Fortunately, ording to what a kind oba-san (Auntie) who was in town said, there is a ce called Adventurers Guild in Adelheid.
The Adventurers Guild was exceptionally big, surrounded by other stone buildings.
The people inside impartially had armaments such as swords and axes indeed adventurer-like.
Aphrodite pulled on the sleeve of my uniform for some reason, and was glued to my back.
Oy. What is it?
W-well.. We are being watched by lots of people! Im being watched!!
There is no helping it. With such an appearance, everyone would pay attention.
Being summoned suddenly into the other world, I havent changed from my highschool uniform.
Aphrodite is still wearing the same clothes as she wore in heaven.
Oi oi. What. That erotic appearance of a nee-chan.
A girl who makes you drunk with excitement just by looking at her.
From the appearance of the men, it feels as though they are admiring Aphrodites beauty rather than watching us both.
However. After talking about that, Aphrodite immediately got carried away and they became silent.
Good day. Adventurer-sama?
I corresponded with the receptionist onee san at the counter.
Chloe Grave
Race: Cat-girl.
Age: 18
ording to the judgment skill, her name seems to be Chloe.
She has a small sized body and the girl has a graceful atmosphere and semi-long raven ck hair.
And Chloe-chan has cat ears on the top of head.
Mwaa~!
This is any guys dream, this bishoujo in the different world!
Chloe-chan is cuute.
Get!
I want to take her home immediately! (Tl; The word used for take her home immediatelycan mean a one-night stand, or taking a girl home from a bar.)
Souta. What are you thinking about?
I heard a voice with killing intenting behind and my body experienced violent pain.
Turning back, the scowling face of Aphrodite, as if it was deformed, stared at me.
What carelessness!
It appears that Aphrodite has captured my ulteriormotives perfectly.
A.. Ano. Today, May I know your business with the guild today?
Note that Literally, it is very polite
Etto, I am looking for a job. Is there any job that I am able to do?
Understood. Is this your first time using this guild?
Yes, actually I had just reached this street.
I will humbly partake the consultation with you. I am required to issued to you a adventure card for usage in this establishment.
As I am going to perform the registration process, will you please register your name on this paper. If you are unable to write your name, it is possible to call for a representative.
No, its okay.
I wrote my name on the paper which was presented by the receptionist Onee-san.
It is a wonder that I am able to write words smoothly in the alternate world.
Eeto, Kazehaya Souta sama. I will now process your guild registration. In a situation where you lost this guild card, a new one will be issued to you with handling charges. Therefore, please take care of it.
Thank you very much

It was written on the Guild card which I had received.
As this is your first time using the guild card, I will exin about the establishment simply.
In a experienced tone, the receptionist Chloe-chan continued speaking.
I will exin about the adventure guild simply and the establishment where adventurers offer their services to quest requested by countries, individuals etc.
The content of the quest ranges from monster subjugation to the search of an unounted cat. When you umte your achievements, you will increase your guild rank. Thereafter, the range of quest that you are able to partake will increase.
I see. By the way, speaking of the adventurers rank, what should I do to be able to rank up?
Yes. There is no other way to increase your rank other than getting judged by the guild about your Aptitude
:. Ohh. What an extremely loose condition.
With a cute smile, the raven ck hair girl said.
In short, even if you have splendid achievements, if it is not recognised by the people above, it will not possible to promote to a higher rank.
Please stop introducing a system to mimic reality into this Game~ish world.
Souta-sama. It is also possible to immediately epts request from now on. Please search for quests pasted on the Guild Board over there that you are able to ept bring them to the counter and wait.
I stood before the billboard pointed by Kuroe-chan and started looking for moderate jobs.

So based on my present adventurer rank, the quest that I can take part seems to be of 3 types huh?
There are other quest that I can ept too. But the rewards are too low or the requirements are unclear. Therefore I had removed them from my selections.
Erm. I wish to do the subjugation quest but how do I show proofs that I had defeated the demons?
Details are in a small pamphlet which will be passed over to you when you ept the quest. Basically, it is necessary to remove and collect the defeated demons parts.
. Understood.
Presently the demons that I had met, without defeating them I had used the capsule ball to make them myrades.
I see, This time should I go for the search quest?
These quests do not have any time limit. Souta-sama, if you wish, it is possible to apply for all of them at the same time. How about it?
If thats the case, please let me apply for all of them
I have acknowledged your request. And this is the Beginner Set which will be offered to people who registered at the guild for the first time. Please use it as you wish.
Thank you very much
I received the Beginners Set which seems to be packed as a necessary item for adventurers
Chapter 9
Lets try summoning demons
In order to do the quest, we/ I turned up at the area Gasuur Forest.
It seems like there is a raw material Medicinal Grass grows en mass within this region which is a vitalponent for the manufacture of Recovery items.
Ne! Souta! How far out are you walking to? Didnt we reached Gasuur Forest a long time back?
Its no good. We must walk in deeper.
. Why??
If we were to encounter other adventurers while fighting the monsters as requested , we will definitely be embroiled up into unnecessary troubles.
Now the way to differentiate the enemy goblins and my allied goblins is only through using the skill Judgement Eye.
However.
This Judgement Eye skill is only obtained after acquiring Aphrodite which resulted in gaining a huge amount of experience.
Even if I summon the goblins with great pains, if they are being suppressed by adventurers other than me, it will be be a sad oue.
Uuu~. Can you cken your pace for I am tired from walking. As I am tired from walking, can I return back into the ball?
After Aphrodite informs her intention, she on her own ord return back into the capsule ball.
Although I had confirmed it during the inspection previously, it seems like it is possible for the deployed monsters to return back to the capsule ball on their own ord if they are close to the master.
Yoshi. Is this area good?
After I had moved into the inner part of the forest where there are no presences of humans around, I Summonthe goblin within my heart.
Goblin LV 1 ( ve)
Proof of Goblin subjugation is located at which area..
Goblin Loincloth Grade G
( An old rage worn by the Goblin. Intense Smell/ Stink)
ording to the pamphlet which I had obtained from the Guild, the subjugation proof item for Goblins seems to be the item wrapped around the hips
Intense Stink..
I do not want to know this kind of information.
Granted, I cannot bring myself to rip off my friendly goblins pants.
As I thought, this time round, it seems like its best if I emphasis on proceed with the Medicinal Grassquest.
After deciding that, using the same trick as before, I summon the goblins in session.
GOBU! GOBU!
Without a moments dy, I summon the whole army of 37 goblins.
Now, this is at present my full force.
Strictly speaking, there is still 1 more person. But the goddess is now in the capsule ball sleeping carefreely, so lets forget about her.
Even you say that they are small monsters, if you were to gather this many, the power will increase considerably.
I who is apanied by over 30 goblins, will for sure be seen as a suspicious person from the side.
Yoshi. Goblins! Listen to me.
I raise my voice so as to let the goblins around me being able to hear my voice.
From now on, lets gather the Medicinal grassdrawn in this book. When discovered, immediately gather that the trees root over there
GOBU! GOBU!
The goblins who had heard my words raise their voices with their arms thrust into the air. And scatter like spider-lings into the depths of the forest.
..These goblins, do they really understand humannguage?
Although I do have some uneasiness, it has be known that I am the only person who is gathering the medicinal grass.
This time, the sess of the quest is highly dependant on the capabilities of the goblins.
My aim is to usehuman wave tacticsto get rich!
I who is praying for the goblins to return safely, send them off.
Chapter 10
Lets gather Medicinal grass in the forest.
After forcing them to gather the medicinal grass, around 2 hours has psed.
It can be said that from the conclusion that getting the goblins to help is a sess.
At the tree root that I had designated lies a huge mound of medicinal grass.
Medicinal Grass Grade F
(A standard raw material used in the creation of Recovery items)
Yoshi, Its almost time to pack up and return back to the vige huh.
More than 50 of Medicinal grass has been gathered at the tree root.
Even if I coveted for more Medicinal grass than this, not being able to carry them back to the Adventurers Guild is also meaningless.
I who tried following the Goblins to search for the Medicinal grass, till now couldnt even find a single one.
As expected, this is what they called sense of the wild?
(TL: I am very sure there is a term for people who had grown up in the wild. Morelike 6th sense in the wild.)
I who was forever staying indoors ying games during my time on Earth, the difficulty level for finding medicinal grass is somewhat high for me.
Ahh, But it does not mean that I do not have any harvest at all, okay?
I who was wandering around in the midst of the forest, has sessfully captured 15 more goblins.
At present, there are now 52 contracted goblins.
Goblins who move about in huge groups, became easy prey for me to fish.
If this pace continues to tomorrow, I believe I am able to create an army of goblins
However.
There is something which worries me.
Although I had waited for the goblins toe back since a while back, even till now there are about 10 goblins yet to return.
. Oh. They are finallying back huh?
As the thicket * Goso Goso* moved, I felt a sigh on relief.
But.
To my surprise, the one jumping out of the grass thicket is a monster different from the goblin.

That monster which resembles a wolf possess ck fur.
Its Level is 3.
Compared to the goblins that I contracted with, its a little higher.
Its teeth is still dyed with fresh red blood.
At that point of time, I intuitively understood the reasons for the missing goblins.
It cant be. This wolf ate..!?
No matter how long the time psed, they are not going to return for they are beaten by the wolf monsters in front of me.
Unforgivable.
I WILL PUNISH YOU!
Gurruuu
The number of enemies is 5.
As they surrounded me, their growls increases in volume.
Fufufu.
These dogs n to win with just these standards.
From the viewpoint of numbers, you have a long way to go to dominate me.
Go! Goblins!
As expected, the goblins based on my instructions jump out to fight.
Exceeding 30 goblins, they rushed towards the wolves as their targets.
As one would expect, they did not consider receiving this much attacks huh.
The wolves who are being surrounded by the goblin army became seemingly frightened.
And then.
Victory was decided within 1 minute.
It seems like originally the during the battle of the goblins and wolves, there is a huge difference in the individual battle capabilities of between them.
The wolves win in physical ability while the goblins win in intelligence. But theirprehensive ability is on par.
Although we won through number, I have a 1 shot kill skill Capsule Ball.
Some time ago, the 5 wolves who bark *Kyan Kyan* , resulted in entering the capsule ball.
Although with just sessfully collecting Medicinal grass is sufficient, the adventure this time, I foresee the challenges I will have in the future.
In particr,I want to prioritise strengthening my monsters.
As it is, when I instruct the goblins to move out to collect medicinal grass, they will be guaranteed to be the wolves prey.
As much as possible I must quickly create a counter measure for the area around here.
As I send the goblins back into the capsule ball after finishing their roles, thought about that issue.

Chapter 11
The captive vampire maid
On the other hand, during the same time when Souta is using the goblins to gather medicinal grass.
There is a demon dashing through Gassur forest.
The name of the girl is Caroline Button.
If its a guy, anyone would turn their heads towards this voluptuous, silver haired red eyed bishoujo.
Demon.
300 years before now, Adelheid (change that as you like) gained hegemony, it is the generic name for the race that put humanity under its control.
It is said that demons who held great power sometimes defeat divine beings.
Both of them have had a standoff for a long time.
Kuso! Wait! This Vampire!
Presently
Caroline was being finished off by numerous men who are holding weapons.
Saintbell which was visited by Souta is blessed with the buying and selling of specialty products gathered from around the country.
But on other hand, with this characteristic, buying and selling of ves be prevalent here.
300 years before now.
During the timeCaroline and co. ruled the world, she worked as a maid for the demon king Iburizu.
Caroline was even among the maids who held a superior abilityand spent many leisurely days.
However still.
The Maou was defeated by the hero which lead to aplete change where humanity began to prosper.
Caroline who was being driven away from her dwelling by humans, again and again suffered from humiliation.
Compared to the humans, there are more demons who have beautiful features.
Caroline has also caught the eye of 1 ve trader.
Furthermore, whats worst is that even within Saintbell, there is this notorious trader calledBakuraja Ackerman.
His wrongdoings have also reached the street which Caroline stayed.
History.
He was discovered to be a nothing but a brute who enjoys sexually tormenting ves.
History.
His deeds have lead to a numerous number of ves losing their lives.
Being lead to the residence, if one is tied by Master Servant Pact/Contract, his or her life will not be guaranteed.
In the midst of moving towards Saintbell, the rock turtle which was being used to move the carriage began to rampage can be said to be a blessing in disguise.
Normally, it is known that its temperament is gentle, and there is no demons like rock turtle which will mindlessly attack the humans but there are times it will step onto sharp rocks leading to trainers unable to control it.
During the time the rock turtle rampage, Caroline took her chances and sessfully escape from the turtle carriage into the woods.
This is bad! As it is, We will be killed byBakuraja-Sama. That girl! She has notpletely recovered from the medication no?!
The guys are in a panic.
It is known that vampires have better physical ability than others.
By any chance, to prepare for any situation, the guys had given Caroline Weakening medicationto lower her status.
Originally, if you are weakened, you will not be able to walk at all.
In addition.
The difference between the guys and her is nowhere near close, for Caroline who had trained herself for the past 300 years to reach her current potential.
Chi. If you guys hurt the valuable goods, I do not know what to say to Bakuraja-Sama Butpared to letting her run as it is, its worst! Rascals Set the arrows!
The guys had understood that if one simply chases, its impossible to capture her. Therefore, they one by one shot their arrows towards her.
.Kya
One of the arrow shot by the guy was stuck onto Carolines back.
If its just that, its impossible to say that its a fatal wound but in the next moment, tragedy urred.
After getting shot by an arrow, Caroline lost her bnce and fall down the forests slope.
Its unknown if she will continue to roll off the cliff
(Please help. Maou-sama..)
A single thought passed through her mind as she lost conscious. Naturally 300 years back was where the Maou had lost its life
Its unknown if her prayers got through or not, but.
From now on, the meeting of Demon girl Caroline Button and Souta will continue the next day.
Chapter 12
A new skill obtained.
In order to exchange the medicinal grass obtained in Gassur Forest , I returned back to the Adventurer Guild.
NO~! Why, with me being a god, why must I carry luggage?!
Well, its like that. For, this is also a necessary job to suppress the demon king.
Using the goblins to obtain medicinal grass has resulted in a harvest more than I had expected.
However still.
As I had obtained a huge amount of medicinal grass. I am troubled by the situation where its impossible for me to carry it back to the guild
Although the goblins are able to help to carry them back to the guild, taking them along in a group will capture unwanted attention.
I do not wish for such a thing, therefore I enlisted Aphrodite for help to carry the luggage.
With a drop in status, Aphrodite is not very useful in battle.

It seems like I had obtain the skill to contract with demons.
A game like skill which allows me tobine demons and create new ones?
The (status) Mind 1000 was obtained when I sessfully contracted with the goddess Aphrodite. I have a hunch that using normal method, this amount is impossible to obtain.
Lets try out this new skill tonight nearby.
With that decided, I carried bag which was filled with huge amounts of Medicinal grass and move towards the Adventurers Guild.
This 36000 col is the remuneration for the quest
. Thank you very much
Nevertheless, this is awesome!Just setting half a day, you are able to obtain that many medicinal grass. If its a novice adventurer, there are many who will getpletely lost in the jungle. You know?!
The receptionist Kuroe Chan *Kuri Kuri *is astonished with her eyes wide open.
Hahaha. Its not a big deal, you know
Its thanks to the goblins who gathered for me.
But getting praised by a beautiful girl is not bad.
Todays earning is 36000 col.
Surveying the prices at the street stalls, it seems like in this world, the value of 1 col seems to exceed the value of 1 yen a little.
In short, just this afternoon, I had made a killing of around 40000 yen.
The strategy of using huge number of goblins to collect medicinal grass seems to be a huge sucess.
With my purse filled with money, I walked with light steps to search for inn to sleep for the night.
Chapter 13
Trying tobine demons.
In order to find an inn for the night, I walk around for an hour.
I finally seed in finding an affordable inn.
As for the price, its 4000 kol for a day and two meals. A soft bed including a shower room I dont doubt that its certainly a reasonable pricepared with the other inns.
Above all, the private room I am able to stay in is big.
As I wished to avoid sharing a room with other adventurers as much as possible, I am very much satisfied with this inn.
Gobu! Gobu!
Right now.
I am in the midst of giving the meal and water which I bought from thendy to the wolves and goblins.
Hey!. Souta. What the hell This room is crumbling Besides, werent there better inns?
Aphrodite expresses her dissatisfaction while nibbling on rye bread like a hamster.
Theres no helping it. Because there isnt enough finances.
Nheless, I understand how Aphrodite feels.
The room which I rented, in modern-day japan, would measure around 6 tatami mats. (tl: ~ 10m2)
When Aphrodite is summoned from the capsule ball, the room is jam-packed.*Gyuu Gyuu*
Well, as I will be sleeping the capsule ball either way, it doesnt matter!
Aphrodite who can leave and enter the ball at will is enviable.
Well, one way or another, its convenient for me for Aphrodite to stay in the ball.
I stop fussing about it too much
When making her stay in the capsule ball, hotel charges for 1 person are saved.
Now then.
After sessfully securing a bed, I decide to inspect the skill that was on my mind.

If my hand identally slipped it could be a catastrophe.
I who read the system message decide to choose the name of the goblin, taking extra care not to enter the wrong choice.

Should I evolve it?
After thinking for a bit, I made up my mind to evolve a goblin.
The adventure this time, my goblins werepletely defeated by other demons.
1 goal which I wanted to clear at an earlier stage was the reinforcement of the demons that be my subordinates.
There is also the problem which thergest amount that can be enved is 56.

Fufufu. From tomorrow onwards, I will rely on you guys! My pals!
Once the strengthening of the demons had finished, Iy down onto the bed and fell into afortable doze.
Chapter 14
Arranging equipment in the other world.
The next morning.
Checking out of the inn, I immediately decided to go onto the street.
Heey. Souta. Where are you going? The way I understand it, isnt the direction of the forest in the other way?
Ah. Todays priority is to go to the store.
I wander around in the town of Saint Bell, looking for my target store.
Guild Approved General Goods StoreSilver Shield
Unexpectedly, I was able to find the store I was looking for immediately.
Edgar Martin.
Sex: Male
Age: 31
Pleasee in. Wee to the guild approved general goods store.
We are greeted as we enter the store by a fashionable and plump middle aged man.
ording to the information I got from Chloe-chan yesterday.
The guild approved general goods store has misceneous useful items for adventurers, a so called Jack of all trades
This country enacts Adventurer Protection Law giving this store grace, giving us various tax breaks which lets us offer reasonable prices formodities.
Customer-san. What items are you seeking today?
Etto. Im looking for clothes at a reasonable price.
I see. As for that fellow, being prepared immediately sounds good.
Edgar-san who looked at our Earth-shattering appearance, had a look of understanding.
Being truthful Preparing clothes was my first priority and I handled a quest in order to get them.
So-Souta! Is it good to buy clothes for me, I wonder?
Ah. Its only natural? Our present clothes stand out too much .
At anyrate, I am wearing a high school uniform.
Aphrodite wearing the same clothes from heaven will cause a disastrous scene.
I am tormented by the sense of shame when walking down the street like two people having a costume y on amuters train.
Y-yes! As a matter of fact I Buying myself clothes, this is the first time!
Is that so?
Yes. In heaven there wasnt a store that sold clothes. The clothes we wore were always decided by the rules.
Certainly. If a god were to wear casual clothes, the atmosphere would be ruined in various ways.
Aphrodite looked around the shop while her eyes are shining brightly.
As the goddess speaks, the tension is no different to that of a young woman.
Id never expect her to be delighteding here.
Wait. For equipment, I rmend equipment within this area to customer-san.
Adventurer Clothes | ss F
(For the fledgling adventurer who prefers to wear clothes. Texture is nice and they are easy to move in.)
Adventurer Clothes | ss F
(For the fledgling adventurer who prefers to wear shoes. No special abilities but the durability is high.)
After a waiting a while, Edgar-san rmended the two above-mentioned items.
The price of the Adventurer Clothes is 1500 kol. The price of the Adventurer shoes is 1000 kol.
Regarding the Guild approved General Goods Stores price, professionalism and courtesy, noints can be made.
I like both. There seems to be different designs for men and women Is D good with this?
I offered casually, but Aphrodite gives off discontent facial expression.
I hate such in clothes! This one is good for me!
Dancing Demon Clothes Grade E
(Frequently used by women who admire decorative clothes)
In Aphrodites hands are pink clothes possessing a feminine design.
Looking at thebel I am surprised with the 1800 kol price!
It seems that with a grade difference of only 1, the price jump will be high.
No, no! Wouldnt it be illogical toe here to buy clothes that wont attract attention if we buy those shy clothes!?
Thats irrelevant! Its a matter of pride! As a goddess of beaty, Its impossible topromise my appearance!
She is as troublesome a fellow as ever.
You idiot. You are originally beyond pretty, in clothes are just right for you.
!?
As soon as she heard my words, Aphrodites face was as red as a ripe tomato.
P-pretty What are you saying so suddenly!? Perhaps Souta Do you look at me with such eyes?
Why are you getting so shy about it?Surely you have heard you were beautiful many times before.
I, Im not shy! Its just, Souta said such strange things suddenly and I was surprised
Bashfully entangling her fingers Aphrodite speaks her mind.
Besides Because of the godsck of rtions with other people, there was no praise from the opposite sex either.
That was unexpected.
For a self proimed goddess of beauty, youd think surely many men have praised her.
When looking at this reaction, its seems thats not the case.
It, It cant be helped. If Souta says so until there, Illpromise on the clothes!
Somehow with a good mood, Aphrodite returns the <> she is holding onto the shelf.
Above all, its good that Aphrodite seems to have understood my point.
Then.
At the Guild Approved General Goods Store, we buy a warm nket and the bare necessities of life, then head to Gassur Forest.
Chapter 15
We went down to the Gasuur Forest again.
My current short-term goal in Adelheid is to save up sufficient funds.
Without adequate equipment and enough battle capability, subjugating the devil king and returning to earth will be just a dream.
After reaching the forest, I checked the surroundings for presence of other people, before summoning the recently born Goblin Elites and Goblin Knights.
Listening to my words, the Goblin army scattered deep into the woods, like baby spiders.
Well, well.
What will happen?
Yesterdays adventure resulted in an ident where some goblins were taken out by other demons, but it is different today.
Using the newly learnt skill , the goblins achieved a remarkable evolution.
Though the group count had dropped, each of their status has risen tremendously.
I wonder what kind of effect would that change have on todays harvest?
While anticipating the result, I decided to advance into the depths of the forest to replenish new demons.
Chapter 16
3 hours has passed since the start of the adventure.
Though I am still unable to find the Medicinal Grass on my own, the replenishment of the demons is progressing smoothly.
I have managed to capture an addition of 18 more goblins, sessfully acquiring newbination ingredients.
Regarding the wolf that we encountered, Imanded the goblin knights to defeat it.
Unlike the goblin, the wolf cant be evolved using the skill.
Since my maximum capacity for envement is 55, its about time I start considering about the limits.
Haa I am really tired. Hey.. , Souta. Isnt it about time we take a short break?
If you want to, then please return to the ball yourself.
Just when I let Aphrodite out from the ball because she said Since I wanted a change of pace, can I help out?
This good-for-nothing goddess is always spouting dissatisfaction when she opens her mouth.
Gobbu! Gobugobbu!
Though I already noticed it when the search begins, 2 goblin knights that was sent out for the search was equipping itself with a wooden pole before you know it.
It seems like goblin knights have a trait of using weapons in battle.
A weapon
Looks like its about time I really think about it.
Since I cant really let them use that wooden pole indefinitely, I really want to get them equipped with new weapons.
Souta!? There is someone on top of that tree!
At the strike of the end of second hoursince the start of the search.
Aphrodite suddenly eximed in a serious tone.
Seems to have fallen off the cliff.
Looking at where she is pointing to, it is certain that there is a figure on top of arge tree.
When I observed more carefully, that figure seems to be a girl wearing clothing of a maid.
..um! (TL: Sounds of using strength)
Without a moments dy, I climbed up the tree, and moved to the edge of the branch the girls body was caught onto.
While carrying her body, I carefully return to the ground, ensuring the branch doesnt break.

(An abnormal status that lower the condition of the target.)
Using the Appraisal skill, Caroline Burton seems to be the name of this silvered hair girl.
Though her outward appearance can only be seen in her early teens, her age is an astonishing 318 years old.
Losing my spirit, I close my eyes, but Carolines features are without doubt real.
This girl, shes from the demon n right?
Just when I was looking at Carolines appearance
Aphrodite slowly murmured.
What is the demon n?
The demon n is the term for the tribe that allied themselves to the reigning demon king in Adelheid 300 years ago. It seems like due to the demon n holding powerful abilities, it was a time when our existences as divinities were being threatened.
I see. Then, why is someone from the demon n in this forest?
I am not sure. After the demon king perished, they pretty much lost their power, and lived in the shadows of humans, or so I heard.
.
Even so, she is bleeding badly, to the point its a miracle that she is still alive. If left alone, she will most likely die in an hour time, i guess?
Exactly as Aphrodite said.
Carolines bleeding is truly gruesome.
Though the abrasion from falling down the cliff was bad, I believe she was attacked by someone.
There is an arrow stuck to her back.
This is Hey, can you do something about it with your abilities?
Its impossible. If its the previous me, I would be able to heal using recovery magic on a injury of this level but as you can see, due to the status debuff, magic of all kinds cant be used.
Even if by chance, she was caught upon the top of the tree, which I think is her fortune in the midst of all her misfortunes.
In the worst scenario where
If her body hadnded on the ground, without a doubt, she would have been food for carnivorous demons like the wolves.
However, this is strange fate. There is one way where she can be saved.
. really!?
Yep. Didnt I told you previously that when inside the ball, you acquired a really strong healing effect? Normally, its impossible for a monster tamer to enve a vampire but you can save her using the skill Absolute Controlthat you possess.
Indeed. There is such a way!
I no longer hesitate after listening to Aphrodites idea.
Its not that I totally do not feel guilty to enve a girl that I know nothing of.
However.
Even more than that, I cant just let this girl die .
The capsule ball that I threw suddenly radiated a dazzling light, absorbing Carolines body into it.
I believe the contract has beenpleted safely.
My status screen is now updated with Carolines name.

An unexpected use
Since the contract with the beautiful vampire girl, Carolina Burton, 3 hours have passed.
The conclusion of the medicine grass collection ended up with the amount collected exceeding yesterdays amount.
I didnt calcte it definitely, but isnt the quantity gathered no less than 100?
But, a new challenge has arisen.
With the progression of time the pace of collection has clearly declined
At first I thought that the demons were simply tired, but this time it doesnt exin the pace of decline.
This leads to a single conclusion.
It is useless to work any more. For now, Ill return home and look for a new method to raise money tomorrow.
By the way, the wolves are standing by as they are demons that are not suitable for the collection of medicine grass.
Compared to the goblins, their intelligence is low is their low point.
It seems the wolves have no distinction ability and would bringmonce weeds.
Fufufu! It seems my turn hase!
Well.
How the hell am I meant to carry this medicine grass back to the street? And, as I was thinking so Aphrodite raised her voice.
Good grief Souta cant do anything without me. If Souta just bows his head Shall I help with carrying luggage today as well?
U, Uzee.
Certainly with the time picking the medicine, with only 1 person carrying it, it will get dark.
Can Aphrodite, two goblin knights and I just barely carry it?
To take the two demons to the street is something I dont want to do, in order to avoid the publics gaze.
Hey hey! Whats wrong? Please. Aphrodite-sama! Pre pre pre pretty Aphrodite-sama!
Transcendent beautiful person Aphrodite-sama!, if you sob while putting your head to the ground, Ill think about it specially?
To bow my head is rather cheap, but it feels like Aphrodite will somehow get more annoying.
Can nothing be done?
When various ns went through my head, an idea sprung to mind.
No. Wait?
Absolute Control (Grade: Details unknown)
(Protection given to those with the qualification to rule the universe)
So what I remembered was the divine protection Absolute Control.
ording to the exnation thats written, its possible to control any target.
Actually, Aphrodite has her pillow and nket in the ball so its possible.
The image is important.
I pile the medicine grass in a huge mound on the ground, then push it against the capsule ball.
What will happen?
The capsule ball emits a dazzling light, sucking the items like a high-performance girlfriend (Vacuum cleaner).
It seems that medicine grass item is not obstructed by the limit somehow.
As a result more than 100 medicine grass ended up in the capsule ball.
FGYAAAA!?! WHY! FOR WHAT REASON!?
By no means did I think to take away one of the few jobs as a baggage carrier.
The condescending attitude from a short while agopletely reversed itself.
Aphrodite seems to be considerably upset.
Hey, hey Souta. By the way, all my words from a short time ago were a joke, okay?
I understand. Its impossible for a sweet girl like D to take advantage of a persons weakness.
Towards my jokingly sarcastic remarks, Aphrodite bes teary eyed.
R,right. Its good if you understand. I feel impressed that Souta, without noticing, seems to have matured too.
Haha. If my growth stays at this rhythm, Ds work may disappear more and more.
To me speaking even more sarcasm, Aphrodite lowers herself and sits on my body.
I, Im shorry. I got carried away
I see. I understand.
Thats why, Souta. Please dont throw me aside Because Ill help seriously next time
Since I understand Dont be so clingy!
Aphrodites shock might be bigger than I thought.
After that.
It took a long time for Aphrodite to stop crying.
Chapter 18
The Girl that Sells Apples
This will be your reward of 66000 col for the quest.
Thank you very much.
On this day, there was an uproar in the adventure guild.
That was expected.
In just one day, the Medicinal Grassthat I have brought in easily exceeded a number of 100
Just out of curiosity, how are you able to gather some much? Could it be that Souta happen to know of a secret spot in the forest?
Fufufu. This is because of the talent I have as a adventurer. This is natural if you leave the job to me.
Lets act extra cool in front of the lovely Kuroe-chan.
Hey hey. What the hell? That rookie?
Oh I recalled. If I am not mistaken, he was the guy who brought in an outrageously beautiful girl when he came to register as an adventurer.
Seriously!? That topic where the guy who was wearing weird clothing!
Topics in regards to me is starting to circte among the other adventurers.
Hmm.
As expected, that might have been a little too conspicuous.
The n of using Medicinal Grass as a form of earnings will have to be restrained for the time being.
Well, no matter, since I am nning to get a different quest tomorrow, I guess there shouldnt be much problem.
While thinking of that, I left the adventurer guild.
Onii-san. Apple! Would you like to have an apple?
(TL: Onii-chan = Brother, or any stranger who is older than you, but not an Uncle yet.)
To return to the inn, I am walking on the streets of Saint Bell.
A girl called out to me.
That girl was opening a shop with a simple street booth, cing the apples on top of a slightly dirtied sheet.
I wonder if she is about 7 years old?
In modern Japan, she would, without doubt, be at the age of entering elementary school.
So in this world, young girls like her also have to work.
She doesnt seem to be well nourished, as it was a heart-aching scene.
Souta. I am hungry. Since we are here, how about bringing some apples back?
I wonder if Aphrodite wanted to do something after seeing the little girls appearance.
Thats true. Eeetto. Can I have 10 of them?
Th..Thank you very much! 10 of them, that will be 1500 col.
I handed over 1 silver coin and 5 iron coin, in exchange for the apples.
If there are any remaining apples after that, lets give them to the goblins as feed.
By the way, the currency value of this world are as follows:
Bronze coin 10 col
Iron coin 100 col
Silver coin 1 000 col
Gold coin 10 000 col
Though there is something above those called white gold, it seems that it is never circted in the market at all.
Aphrodite and I were both chewing the apple while walking on the streets of Saint Bell.
Anyway, in regards to the taste, they were extremely normal apples.
But.
After being summoned to the alternate world, I think its been a while since I have eaten anything sweet.
I found the apple delicious to the point of being moved after not eating one for a long time.
Hey. You there. .Stop your feet.
Bakuraja Ackerman
Race: Human
Age: 37
While walking in a really good mood, a sweaty overweight middle-aged man stands right in front of me.
Taking along what seems to be his bad-looking subordinates, the overweight man red at us.
Hey! Do you recognize the girl in this picture!?
What he took out from his bosom was a picture of a sexy voluptuous girl.
I immediately realized that the girl in the picture was the vampire girl, Caroline, who I enved recently in the forest.
No. Sorry. Though I have no idea, may I know what did she to?
If its Caroline, she is sleeping in the ball though?
I wont speak of it even if my mouth was being teared apart.
Since the circumstances dont seem to be normal, I think its best that I do not disclose information regarding Caroline.
You! You are being too haughty! Do you know who is this person!? He is themander of Saint Bells 4th biggest ve firm, Bakuraja Ackerman-sama.
I I see.
well, who is that?
In the first ce, themander of the 4th biggest firm.. That sounds like an awfully questionable position if you say me.
~Funn~. Know that your life is at its end if you made any more rudements! That girl in the picture is an item that we have purchased. In spite of that, it has escaped.
..
I see.
That means Caroline didnt want to be a ve and was escaping from that fate.
Then, in the midst of escaping, she fell from the cliff and got to her current situation.
I understand. If I receive any information, I will contact you.
After bowing my head, the whole mass of guys went off looking for the next witness by proceeding through the booths.
Whats that about? What an unpleasant feeling.
Yep. It feels like its going to be troublesome, so lets try not to have anything to do with it.
I thought about this after the situation, but I think I might have raised a g when I made that remark.
Hey you! Lining apples at this ce Do you have themerce permit that we issued!?
You crap! Get over here! I am going to spank you real good at my house.
The overweight man smiled vulgarly while seemingly ensnaring the girl that sells apple.
His right hand went grabbing the girls butt tightly.
Uhmm. Dont you think thats enough? Its childish against a kid, you know.
Ahhh. I am an idiot!
I have already decided not to be involved into it since I know its going to be troublesome..
By the time I realized, my body had already moved.
Chapter 19
A newpanion
W-what? You? Youre the adventurer from before?
The man became angry when I disturbed his sexual harassment of the girl.
The overweight, middle-aged mans face warped into an angry expression.
Adventurers appearance? You have something to say to me, yes?
O, onii-san
I look at the girl. She is looking towards me with a frightened look.
I have aint!
Its only permitted to lick a little girl in the 2-D world!
Because there are people like you, Japanese manga is regted.
It creates a chain of grief and sorrow.
Listen to what Im saying! Are you ignoring me-?!
The middle-aged man pulls the sword from his waist.
In an instant, I summon a Goblin Knight.
The Goblin Knight uses his whole body to protect me from the middle-aged man.
What. YouYou were a monster tamer?
Yeh, right.
Apparently the upation of monster tamer is notable in Adelheide.
However, the middle-aged man can move quite spritely in spite of his size.
The Goblin Knight is my best fighter currently, but hes going to take serious damage from the middle-aged man.
Im not afraid of you! Seize the adventurer! Youll be sorry a monster tamer tried to go against me!
Ha..! x3
Having heard the instructions, the middle-aged mans subordinates pull out their swords and rush towards me.
Goblins! Protect me!
I gradually summon the goblins; 2 goblin, 3 goblin, 4 goblin
What? x3
Even I would be frightened when there were so many enemies.
The men m on the brakes, stopping their approach.
I dont miss this chance.
I give orders for my Goblin Knights to attack.
I have the enemy outnumbered.
The Goblin Knights attack and the men grovel in response to the surprise attack.
Youve gone too far! Follow my instructions and withdraw the monsters! Otherwise, Ill cut this little girls neck.
O, onii-san
I was careless.
The mans subordinates distracted me and my judgement was impaired.
The fat, middle-aged man captured the apple-selling girl and has a proud air.
I understand. Ill listen. But I have one condition
Huh? A condition?
The mans face bes questioning.
In exchange take this guy for me
Hmm. Whats this?
Because I threw it in arge arc, I was able to catch him off guard very well.
The fat man catches the capsule ball that I threw in the air.
I caught it!
However, it was the trap I had set!
W-What!? This light!?
The fat man raised a cry just after.
The capsule ball which I threw emits a dazzling light and the fat mans body gets sucked in.
Result.
Now, what to do with the middle-aged man in my small capsule ball.
Hey! What is this ce!? Let me out! Get me out of here quickly! Dont me me for whatever happens!
The fat man knocked on the wall from the inside of the ball. His face bing deep-red from the exertion.
Phew
I survived a difficult situation this time somehow.
A fat, middle-aged man! Get!

Thevampire maid wakes up
Are you alright? Are you hurt?
.yes. Thank you onii-san.
The girl who was selling apples gave a polite bow as I asked.
I understood clearly this time.
MyAbsolute Control skill, is a dangerous thing depending on its usage as it can cause themon sense of the world to copse.
Fortunately. The people who were in the street when I summoned my goblin army seem to have run away.
It seems that the number of witnesses has been kept to a minimum.
Souta. How do you say.Im sorry I said something like that
Aphrodite looks down bashfully as she talks.
Today. You were a little. you were cool.
Ha, ha. Why, thanks.
It was hard to believe that such words came out of the mouth of Aphrodite.
There is no higher honour then to receive words of praise from a goddess.
Okay.
A case has beenpleted and I should go back to the inn.
It would be unwise to remain in this ce.
The hard work of my goblins meant I was able to make a lot more money than I expected from todays adventure.
Tonight I decide to choose an expensive inn that has an attached bathroom.
The innst night cost 7000 kol and this inn cost almost twice as much.
But.
I can wash the sweat off after a long absence from a bathroom.
When the body is in this stinking state, it is worth splurging.
Well.
Probably because I was resting my body in a ball for half a day.
The vampire maid, Carolina, who I met in a forestpletely healed the wounds.
Ah. Are you awake?
After a while lying on the bed in the inn, Carolina regains consciousness.
..Maou.sa..ma? (Rue: Maou-sama, the devil king.)
When Carolina sees my figure, she utters strange words.
Err. Have you mistaken me for somebody?
When I ask, Carolina suddenly seems to remember me.
I, Im sorry for this. My memory is confused. Where on earth am I?
It is the inn of Saint Bell here. You copsed in a forest so I carried you to this town.
Is that so. Thank you for helping me this time. How should I give my thanks? My name is Carolina. Carolina Burton. My friends call me Caro. Ahif you dont mind could you tell me your name?
Oh. My name is Kazehaya Souta.
Souta-samais it? Its vague but I remember that you helped me.
It was you who saved me when I had fallen from a cliff and was caught in the tree? Its strange. I was only slightly conscious but I remember your face clearly.
So. Thats good.
It seems I have been saved the trouble of an exnation.
And then.
After pondering on something for a while, Carolina begins to talk slowly.
ErrTherefore I may want to discuss it with Souta-sama; How may I repay Souta-samas kindness?
Return the favour?
Yes. When you say it that way, it sounds so brazen. I was brought to Saint Bell as a ve. Even if I leave here, there is nothing for me to return to. I would like to stay by Soutas side, to help Souta.
Im grateful but I do not have enough money to employ a maid.
Oh. Then its fine. Originally, I am not dissatisfied as long as Im getting minimum food and clothing.
If what Carolina says is true, hers is not a happy story.
I have a little confidence in battle. I think I could be useful to Mr. Souta if he took me on his adventure.
Carolinas words are probably truthful.
Her status as a woman was above average.
I know. There is no reason to refuse Karo.
Really!? Thank you very much! Master!
M-Master.!?
Yes. After all, this is suitable because Souta is my master from now on. .is something strange?
Its not strange! Not strange! By all means, call me master from now on!
How unusual.
Somehow, I seem to have be Carolinas master today.
I didnt think the day that a girl would call me master without paying her money would evere.
Chapter 21
The Forbidden meeting
The highlight up to here.
I somehow managed to be Carolinas master.
Master. If you want me to do anything, please order me. If its masters orders, Ill ept anything.
Carolina says so while bowing gracefully.
A-anything is okay?
Its natural. After being rescued by master, Ill serve with all my body and power wholeheartedly.
Carolina says words of thanks with a carefree smile.
Because it was too cute, my heart throbs unexpectedly.
Or perhaps should I say, thinking about my situation right now, it is exceedingly amazing right now.
At a close inspection, Carolina seems to be quite slim overall and what emerges The mans ideal of a body.
Its dangerous.
My heart is throbbing now that Ive be conscious of it.
Souta! I rented a bath earlier!
When I looked in the direction the voice, Aphrodite was there wearing a bathrobe.
Her appearance directly after a shower was incredibly sexy.
Out of a small gap in the bath towel Aphrodites voluptuous breasts shake.
-! Why is there a member of the gods family here!?
Carolina who saw the figure of Aphrodite had herplexion pale visibly.
Perhaps Karo, do you understand the true nature of this fellow?
Yeah. The gods and demons are inextricably linked. Because they are existences that are directly opposite each other. When they are close it can be sensed, although vague.
I see.
That reminds me, when Aphrodite saw Carolina, she did conclude that she was from the demons family.
Is that so. It cant be helped if its exposed. This girl here, is called Aphrodite and has various circumstances so she has to adventure with me.
Carolina who heard my words became even more shaken than before.
A-APHRODITE!? ARENT GODS THOSE WHO HAVE RISEN TO THE TOP RANK IN HEAVEN?! WHY IS ONE OF THE TWELVE GODS OF OLYMPUS ON THE GROUND!?
I didnt know.
I think I heard her name a lot in games but in this world, is Aphrodite also very famous?
Etto. There are various reasons for this.
Things have be moreplex.
If I think about it carefully, I have contracted both someone from the Gods family and the demons family who are like water and oil.
Ive decided to exin the details to Carolina.
Chapter 22
Hero or Maou
I have met an outrageous person.
In response to the various exnations Carolina was unable to hide her surprise.
Though there is also the meeting with the most supreme divines onnd, what shock Carolina even more is the fact that the divines that apany humans.
In response to the prediction of the Maous revival, she was informed by her fellow demons about the summoning of heroes from an alternate world.
Although.
No, to be urate, there was only one person in the past with a power simr to that.
Great Maou Ibris.
The existence whom dominated Adelheid 300 years ago and was feared.
Ibris is an existence Adelheid that has the skill of enving all monsters, and is surely being ced in the most absolute position.
I wonder why.
Perhaps this is, the boy called Kazehaya Souta who was summoned to the different world as a hero, is the reincarnation of the Maou?
The doubt which budded in Carolina gradually grew into conviction.
There are two reasons for this.
First; A prediction of the revival of the Maou in the near future that came from the mouth of a famous prophet.
With Ibris mighty powers, though his body might rot away there is no way his soul disappearedpletely.
In such a case, it would be normal for the reincarnation to take hundreds of years.
The second thing; the perception of Carolina who served the demon king for a long time.
She served at Ibris side closer than anyone else, she can understand simply because she loves him from the bottom of her heart.
There is no doubt.
The boy called Kazehaya Souta is the reincarnation of the demon king.
The person himself doesnt seem to be aware of it, but if the prophecy is reliable, before long he will awaken to the power of the Maou and dominate Adelheid.
Then my mission should be to help him with my utmost effort.
(But, it was a strange coincidence, wasnt it? To be able to meet you by chance in this way again)
Ibris who is stronger than everyone else is the subject of longing by Carolina.
(Fufu. To think that I I cant get this worked up.)
Carolina trembles in joy, being able to serve the demon king once more.
Chapter 23
Lets collect mushrooms in the marsh
The next day.
I came to the adventurers guild in order to find a quest to rece the medicinal grass collection which was my main one.
By the way,st night I had Carolina wait in a ball with Aphrodite.
Given her circumstances, it would be good to let things calm down before having her live mainly inside the ball when you think about it.
Oi oi. Look. A new quest is added.
It seems to have rained heavily at a marsh in Zumaria yesterday. Monsters has begun to spring up.
I have heard middle-aged adventurers talk about such a thing as they stand before the guild board.

The men are talking about the above 3 quests.
The adventurer rank required is G.
Seems like that said suddenly-added quest has somewhat equal payment to the existing ones inside the forest.
I cleared all the medicinal grass for that request earlier too, so theres no real reason for not epting this new request right?
Then 2 hourster.
I arrived at the damp ground of Zumaria to handle the quest I had just epted.
ording to the pamphlet I took from the guild, the demon appearing in this area seems to be light mash and two kinds of amoeba slugs.
When Ive confirmed that there was no human presence, I called Carolina out from the ball.
A-Amazing! I heard from you before, but Im really able to freely enter and exit the ball!
Suddenly called, Carolina eyes grew big with surprise.
the divine protection of <> which rules all families. It feels like too much power for a mere human to have.
Hm? Did you say something?
N-no! Its nothing!
When I asked it, I had the feeling that I was being deceived as Carolina waved her hand exaggeratedly.
Souta, look, look! A Monster Mushroom ising from over there!

(Numbness powder)
At Aphrodites fingertips, there was a Light Mash jumping up and down.
Caro! I want to see your fighting capability. Is it alright to leave this ce? Do not kill that monster but neutralize it, save it.
I understand. A monster of that level wouldnt be a problem, even with my bare hands.
Dering so, Carolina peered in the direction of the Light Mash.
The Light Mash was a mushroom shaped monster, with a full length of approximately 50 centimeters.
Since it appears to have be a gigantic mushroom, it didnt grow any feet.
The monster moved by hopping, like a pogo stick, and the atmosphere wasical.
Nokou!
When the Light Mash raises a strange voice, I begin to splurt out spores from the point of its head.
Nuooo!
What is it? That attack!?
If that attack is poisonous, its bad.
Was it a misjudgement to let Carolina fight this as her first opponent?
But.
Carolina was calm in contrast to my worries.
Suddenly, a strong wind arose from Carolinas feet.
This is.magic.!?
My prediction is right, this wind is attributed to [Wind Attribute Magic (intermediate)] disy by the status screen of Carolina.
The numbness powder which the Light Mash shot is being drowned out by the wind.
Immediately after.
Carolina jumped with superhuman strength, like a rabbit, andnds behind the Light Marsh in an instant.
Then.
Without wasting a moment, the Light Mash was sent flying by apact kick.
Umm. Was that okay?
Thats just enough! With this, even if I leave all the fighting to you, there would seem to be no problem at all
Due to the Carolinas effort, the Light Mash was at deaths door breathing weakly.
When its like this, I can surely put it into the capsule ball.

The forbidden Combination
Thetest swampnd search is for the collection of <.
ording to the pamphlet which I received from the guild, < seem to often inhabit particrly humid locations in the swampnd of Zumaria.
The same method as when I harvested <> before in a forest will probably be good.
So I decided to summon the goblin army, one after another.
Amazing! To be able to summon so many monsters at the same time!
Carolina sent a respectful look towards me, who managed to summon the goblin army without pause.
Well. I guess this amazing?
It cant be helped that it doesnt feel that amazing. I havent had anything or anyone topare it to.
Of course! It is said that the number of monsters which a demon trainer can contract depends on your level! It is said to be possible to employ 3 monsters simultaneously only at the top rank.
is that so
If it takes one person to summon 3 monsters at once, then I wonder how many people I count as..
Isnt it natural? After all, Souta contracted a God! Im the reason you dont have to work so much.
Sothats why you have a smug face.
By the way.
While we were chattering away, I decided to enter the work as the summoning of the goblin knights was over.
I intend to have Aphrodite and Carolina help with the collection of this <> too.
I decided to add five goblin knights and one wolf to each of them as they entered into work.
Go from under mymand and obey the orders of Aphrodite and Carolina. Protect those two like you would me, and if anything happens protect them with your lives
Gobu! x2
Gauuu! x 2
I want to leave two people mainly as a primary conduit to bridge me and the demons.
As for the search, if I let a monster make an expedition, a single order will be insufficient.
If it is possible to get Aphrodite and Carolina to give orders at the right time, wouldnt it make the search more efficient?
For that reason, we divide into 3.
Then.
After Approximately 10 minutes had passed since I started work.
The first Goblin Knight who started searching seems to have seeded in the collection of the first << medicinal food mushroom>>.
I came to this ce to collect <> but this time theres something more important Id like to see.

Where is this!?
Bakuraga appeared to be upset when he suddenly appeared in the outside world.
It would be terrible if Aphrodite and Carolina were to experience sexual harassment in the ball. Thats why I ordered Bakuraja to sleep in the ball until I permitted otherwise.
It will appear to Bakuraja that he was trapped in the ball only several minutes.
Alright.
How to dispose of this fellow?
There is no way for me to cancel the contract for now but leaving it this way is inconvenient.
There is a limit to the number of monsters I can employ.

ughter more than 10 people for pleasure.

This is because of it being necessary to ughter more than 10 people for pleasure to acquire the skill <>.
Assuming I get the means to cancel the contractter, when hes set free from the ball there might be further victims.
Since its like this, Id better prepare myself as well.
The middle-aged man, who was summoned among the wolves, looks like a samurai prepared tomit seppuku as he closes his eyes slowly.
Go. kill! You should murder him! I dont intend to survive miserably under a boys control!
..
Are you an orc surrounded by princess knights?
If anything, the middle-aged man resembles an orc
It goes without saying, but the fat old guy yelling [Kill him! Kill him!] isnt moe(cute) at all.
Dont worry. Youre a fish I didnt intend to catch.
I, a mere high school student was summoned into a different world.
I will be ovee with emotion if I murder him, a lot of guilt for taking a human life.
Hmph. In that case.youre letting me go? Sorry but I wont take mercy even from a kid like you!
No. Its different. I wont let you escape but I wont kill you. There is only way for this to be a WIN-WIN rtionship!
Dering as such, I open a status screen and slowly scroll through the listed skills.

Id notice a crisis happening to my own body.
Bakuraja changes his expression and shouts but it is already toote!
The body of Ossan will soon be drawn into the body of the wolf.
Just after that.
The wolfs body is wrapped in light and expands.
The newly born monster, a werewolf, emerges from the midst of the light.
Gau! Gau!
The werewolf was a monster with a human body and the head of a wolf, almost 2 meters tall.
The body was huge but the silvery, fluffy hair covering it meant it had a strangle lovely atmosphere.
It had changedpletely from the ossans hateful face before the transformation.
It has the look that seems to be popr with high school girls walking around Shibuya or Harajuku.
Alright! A werewolf. Shake!

I seeded in the acquisition of the monster with the best attack potential presently in an unexpected way.

It seems like splitting the work into 3 teams was right from the results.
The effectiveness of the hunt became a lot more better than usual.
The ce that I indicate will always have ¡®Medicinal Mushroom¡¯ to gather every interval.
¡°Master. This is the proof for the subjugation, ¡®Grip of the Light Mash¡¯.¡±
¡°Souta. We have also brought materials over!¡±
¡°Oh. Gather as much as you can.¡±
The fact that we even manage to harvest the rarely seen subjugation proof shows the effect of the new operation.
The goblin army is supposedly the monsters with high intelligence but tomand all of them while having multiple orders would result in a huge decrease in precision for each of them.
In other words, during the period of the order of ¡°Search of ¡®Medicinal Mushroom¡¯¡±, it¡¯s impossible to have them go on a feat of gathering materials from defeating monsters.
Because of Aphrodite and Carolina going over to update their order, we are getting the current results.
Numb powder Grade E
(Long range. Range attack. A skill that gives a specific target the numb status.)
¡°Since the gathering of materials is going smoothly, I decided to do some skill verification works this time.¡±
I have to try these things when I have the time.
Now! It might be toote when the effects are unknown at times.
While i was thinking that, I slowly summon Light Marsh.
¡°Nokoooo!¡±
Light Marsh is making a weird cry as usual.
For skills like this, effect can¡¯t be used if there are no targets in the vicinity.
Though it¡¯s a pitiful to do an experiment like this, I can¡¯t rece my stomach with my spine.
I summon Wolf opposite of Light Marsh.
¡°Woof! Woof!¡±
Afterpleting the preparation, Verification Start!
(Light Marsh¡. Numbing Powder!)
Without dy, I order Light Marsh to use the skill.
Immediately after that.
As if lowering its head in a bow, Light Marsh sprayed a grain-like substance from the top of its mushroom umbre.
It seems to be of a range of 2m.
It feels rather uneasy to use it as a ranged attack but the degree of the effect is immense..
Wolf Lv 1 Status (Numb)
Affected by the numbing powder skill, not only is the wolf unable to stand, it is rolling on the floor while showing signs of cramps from the body, piku piku.
Hou Hou.
The numbing powder skill seems to be a lot stronger than expected.
For me who throw capsule ball at monsters to enve them, thepatibility is specially good.
Let¡¯s make the future basic tactics to be throwing a capsule ball at the target monster after it¡¯s been debuffed.
After being satisfied from the skill verification work, I bend myself forward to rejoin the gathering of materials.
Chapter 26
Amoeba Slug
Alright. Wed better return today before sunset.
You truly are my master! Youve gathered so much material in just a single day
Ah. To tell you the truth, Im also surprised by this result.
In the first ce, it might have been a mistake to have let the goblins scatter and work so far away.
From this result, I think that the true value of the goblins is when they are gathered into a team.
However, how will I take this much material home? Its not possible to take it all at once even with 3 people to do the carrying.
Oh, its okay. No need to worry.
I throw a capsule ball and the big pile of <> under the tree bes stored in the ball.
A-amazing! How can you use a capsule ball in such a way . !?
No, its nothing much
Because Carolina is impressed by every fresh reaction, it doesnt raise my spirits.
On the other hand, if it came from our goddess..
FUGYAAAAAA!? SOMEONE HELP MEEEEEEEEEE-!
Speak of the devil..
There is no doubt that this is Aphrodites voice.

There was a giant slug monster there when I rushed towards the voice.
That isthe amoeba slug..!?
Its length is easily near 2 meters.
The silhouette looks just like the slugs on Earth but it has a semi-transparent, crystalline body.
Level 7.
This is the highest level monster Ive encountered so far.
Souta! .. Hy-Hyelp Hyelp myee
With her eyes bing teary, Aphrodite asks for help.
Her body has been trapped by various semi-transparent tentacles extending from the amoeba slug.
This monster! Slimy and gross.!
The monsters who I had sent as an escort seemed to be running around in utter confusion without knowing what to do with the monster attacking from the water.
Wait! I need help now!
I hurl a capsule ball immediately towards the huge Filthy Slime.
But, unexpected things happen the next moment.
The amoebas slug has repelled the capsule ball with a tentacle extending from inside its body.
At this moment, a weakness of the invincible capsule ball was revealed.
I didnt notice until now because until now I had not met a demon who was able <> the ball.
It hits it and is sent straight back,so I should probably do something else.
What should I do?
I think using the light marshs Numbness Powder at this range will be difficult. There is a possibility that it will miss.
Master. Please leave it to me.
Carolina calls out to me while I am puzzled.
is it okay? I think there is an enemy in the pond.
Not a problem. It is fully within my legs reach. By all means, help Aphrodite.
Ohits very encouraging!
Carolinas legs are certainly strong, she will be able to attack the amoeba slug.
If there is even a single blow, it should be an opportunity for me to get the amoeba slug.
It will be the best opportunity tond a capsule ball!
The next moment, after I was determined in my mind
the incident urred.
HI YAAH!
Suddenly, Aphrodite raises a pink scream. (Ru: Pink = hi)
What I thought it looked like was that the tentacles of the amoeba slug had begun to extend inside Aphrodites skirt.
Hey. Suddenly a strange voice rang out
H-he.. this monster is touching a strange ce.
I hesitate, Aphrodite is wriggling and writhing.
I wonder if I should interfere with this predation ?
The amoebas slug handles a tentacle skillfully and peels off Aphrodites clothes.
I cant permit you to do such a terrible thing to my friend.!
Good job!
What a fantastic situation! Nice decision. (To take off the clothes)
Master?
Im bad.
Although I said cool lines with my mouth, I started at Aphrodites figure.
Carolina was openly wearing a look of ill humour.
.tch.
Is it my imagination?
But I can clearly hear the tongue clicking sound from the direction of Carolina.
Then.
Carolina keeps shortening the distance from the amoeba slug gradually.
Im sorry. I have also been caught.!
She became the victim of a tentacle without resistance.
Hey.
Did you . not attack on purpose?
Kyaan!. Th-this tentacle.it is slimier than I thought~.
Carolina who received the same tentacle attack screams pink.
The amoebas slug peels clothes off Carolina in the same manner as before, revealing her underwear.
Souta. Please help me quickly!
Please master, please help me.!
As it turns out
the tentacle that had caught Carolina has bex.
The powerful opponent, amoeba slug, is easily caught by the second shot of the capsule ball.
Anyway, I had the good fortune to see something eye-pleasing.

Lets prepare the monsters equipment
This expedition was very profitable by itself.
The number of material brought back well surpasses 100.
Light marsh x 8
Amoebas slug x 2
I was unable to employ many monsters in Zumaria marsh as, unlike the goblins, they did not have the group behaviour.
However.
It was good that I was able to capture a second amoebas slug on the way home.
It might be a rare monster if on my one day expedition I only met two.
[The quest reward is 76000 Col]
thanks. Thank you very much.
You were amazing as usual! Since I began work more than 1 year ago, you are the first adventurer to have gathered so many raw materials!
The receptionist, Chloe-chan, looked at me with big eyes, surprised.
Ha ha ha. Its not a big deal.
While I suppress my heart from soaring, I provide a foppish smile.
By the way, do you want to have dinner together tonight?
Ah. You dont have to do that.
As I felt like it, I tried picking up a woman for the first time in this life And was splendidly rejectedpletely.
This fellow..is she not interested in me!?
I hadpletely misunderstood because they praised me like something as amazing.
Even if an unpopr guy goes into a different world, will he still be unpopr?
.its a tough world.
Due to cash received from selling therge amount of raw materials, I have a warm feeling in my chest.
I left the adventurers guild to visit the general store I was at previously.
Come. Wee to the officially recognised guild general store.
I enter the store and am greeted by an unfashionable, plump, middle-aged man.
So, Caro, what kind of weapon do you want?
Well, it is different from a weapon but if I could get some less constricting clothes. It is hard to move in these maid clothes.
I see. Well, That seems alright.
The purpose of this shopping is equipment replenishment.
So far, care about any budget has been abandoned .
As my ability is a monster tamer, I want the equipment on Aphrodite and Carolina to be as good as possible.
Also..I would be thankful if you would buy a change of underwearI have only the pair I put on.
Mhm. Shall I choose it carefully?
Carolina was in the forest a long time and she hasnt had the circumstances to change since meeting me.
Then, she has probably kept the same underwear on for around 3 days?
Why am I doing such a useless calction?
Ah. If thats the case, I want to buy underwear!
Didnt you just buy some yesterday?
This fellow obstinately didnt tell me what kind of underwear she wore.
Stupid Souta! To ask that is to have no delicacy! No matter how much underwear a girl has, it isnt enough!
.is that so?
I dont understand it well but I should probably leave it alone.
By the way, Adelheids underwear is almost the same design as modern day Japan.
Somehow.
After the manager of the general store heard such a story, and guessed.
It seems that rubber-like materials in Adeleheid that are easy to manufacture exist, butpared to the people of Earth, underwear culture has developed for a long time or something.
Ive got no problem with the fact that other world girls are the best, but when ites to underwear, Im more used to Earths design and so I like it more.
To me who likes beautiful girls panties three times more than food, it seems like the underwear situation in Adeleheid is somewhat convenient to me.
Alright.
While the women choose their underwear, shall I choose the weapon to make the Goblin Knights have?
Presently, the Goblin Knight has a club that has been carved from a tree.
Isnt it possible to increase their battle ability drastically by changing weapon?
It would be worth trying sufficiently.
Im sorry. Im looking for a weapon even beginners can handle, is there not something?
Hmm. Weapons. They are handled in our shop but I cannot rmend
Why is that?
There is a few little items but our shop is not a specialty store. It is not possible for us to perform maintenance on the weapon, so it is better for the beginner to go to a specialty store. There are many specialty shops that will give periodical maintenance for free.
.I see.
Apparently we can not arrange everything in the general store.
Shall I tell you the location of the weapon shop located in Saint Bell?
Thank you for your help.
Like that I heard from the manager Edgar-san about the location of specialty shops.
It is protective gear, not decorative, I have to purchase.
I decide to go in the general store and choose Carolinas equipment for a while.
Ranger suit ss E
(Clothes for ease of movement)
Leather boots ss F
(Strong boots. Small bonus to blow offensive attacks.)
Like that, I chose a suit of clothes for the purpose of expedition and a pair of boots to fulfill the request.
Souta-sama. Ummis it okay to buy me such expensive clothes?
Carolina who had entered the fitting room and changed clothes uttered a cry of bewilderment.
The price of the clothes called the Ranger Suit is 9000 Cols. In Japanese money, it was around 10,000 yen but the clothing wasparatively expensive to the rest in the shop.
I dont mind. You have worked hard and this is not that great an expense.
Thank you! Ill use it carefully!
And well, while I said that quite condescendingly, really this times matter was out of my own self-interest.
The Ranger Suit which I chose for Carolina was an attractive design, a mini-skirt + garter belt + knee-sockbo.
While it is my sense of style, I think this is the perfect article for Carolina, who gives off a cool air.
For Carolina who uses kicks as her main fighting style, as I thought having her wear a miniskirt is best.
It is a little short Souta. On earth, what kind of thing is this? Are Caros clothes more expensive than mine?
Well, that is the case. Ill give D another opportunity to buy equipment due to the different value.
Muu~. Absolutely! Its a promise!
There is still a slightly displeased air but
Aphrodite seems to have understood somehow.
Compared to the early days, Aphrodite has be a lot more obedient.
Chapter 28
Trantor: Yoshiro
The cksmith Girl
After buying the armor, the next thing would be to acquire weapons.
I decided to visit the closest store that Edgar-san told me.
Wait. Souta. Lets not go to that store.
. I also think that it would be better to search for another store.
That store, closest to the General store, gives a dismissal reaction to females from its outlook.
Composite Arms Store
The words on the tattered signboard were pretty much worn out to the level where you can barely read it.
It cant be helped. Lets find another shop, shall we? To begin with, we cant enter the store anyway since the shutter is down.
At the timing of when we gave up and was about to return.
Sheryl Oterrod(Need help with this)
Race Gnome
Gender Female
Age 13
Um Its been a while since I see the dazzling sunz.
(TL: Trying to act some sound effect to make her sound slightly different)
With the gara gara sounds, the stores shutter started opening.
What appear from inside the store was a girl of short build with a nearly 150 cm height.
If you are talking about a gnome in an RPG, it would be the Earth attribute Sprite, right?
I wonder if the gnomes race feature is also sharp-pointed ears like the elves?
Though covered in soot and oil, if you concentrate your gaze, you can actually see rather cute features.
A different type of beauty,pared to Aphrodite and Caroline.
Ah. Hi Hi. Customerz?
As she noticed me, she floated a friendly smile.
Could it be you are the one that manage this shop?
Thats rightz. What kind of weapons are you searching for today? Since I havepleted the work that have been keeping me busy, I can provide some service!
As the girl named Sheryls sightsid on Aphrodite and Caroline at my back, her eyes widened.
Hey! Adventurer-san! Are those girls Adventurer-sanspanion!?
Ah. Well, that does turns out to be the case.
Wah.. I am shocked. I have never seen such lovely people before. They are really beautiful girls, arent they!?
Sheryl was taking a semi-over reaction after seeing the appearance of Aphrodite and Caroline.
Yosh. I have decided. Souta. We shall buy weapons from this shop today!
Eh? But didnt you say you wanted to find some other shop just now?
I have already forgotten something so long in the past! To be astonished of my beauty at the beginning of our first meeting.. Isnt she a considerably promising child? Surely, I am sure that her skill as a cksmith is undoubtable.
Well, I dont think those two have any rtions with each other though.
Seriously She changed her mind so easily just from somepliments.
Likely due to the good mood from beingplimented, Aphrodite took my arm, and began entering the insides of the store.
Chapter 29
Trantors: Rumanshi, Light
TLC: Light, Fairy, Nymphriel
Rumanshi: I had a bit of fun with the shopkeepers ent, lol.
Lets try searching for a suitable weapon
The store that Sheryl managed, while its exterior was worn out, the interior was unexpectedly orderly.
Sword, Spear, Axe, Bow, and to top it all off, nunchacks
As one would expect of a specialist shop when ites to variety of weapons, the general stores just cant bepared with this.
Now then.
What on earth should I choose?
Having so many choices is unexpectedly making it harder to decide
Etto Izzz it pozzibl that adventurer-san isnt uzed to manny weaponz? Forz a beginner-zan I rmend zis area here.
She took mind to me who was gazing around at the articles restlessly.
Sheryl pointed to an area of the store with rtively reasonable weapons.
Etto. To tell you the truth, Ive never used a weapon at all
? Howz exactly iz thiz?
Rather than exining by mouth itd probably be better to show it.
I summoned a goblin knight from the capsule ball.
I want you tell me a weapon suitable for him.
Sheryl looks at the goblin knight with a difficult face and scratches her cheek.
U~mu. I see, adventurer-san waz a user of monsters, iznt he? However, thiz is troubling. Onezelf haznt the experience in choosing weaponz for a monster.
.. Is that the case? Hasnt any monster trainer visited besides me?
Nooz. The perzonz whoe to buy weaponz for monsters are rarely seenz. In the first ce, the weaponz that a demon can use are severely limited.
Is that so?
Indeed, in the past when I tried, only the goblin knights could be equipped with weapons.
I havee across goblins being used as abour force before at Saint bell, but the evolution Goblin Elites cannot be found anywhere at all.
It may be that it is too difficult to enve a strong demons like Goblin Knights that can handle weapons unless its through the demonbination skill.
For now, I want to try out all categories from start to end. So can you arrange the cheap weapons over here?
Roger! Since thats the case Ill be bringing various things okay!
Five minutester.
Bronze Sword / Grade: F / Cost: 6000 Kol
(Copper Sword preferred by the novice adventurer)
Bronze Lance / Grade: F / Cost: 6000 Kol
(Copper Spear preferred by the novice adventurer)
Bronze mace / Grade: F / Cost: 5000 Kol
(Copper Battle-cane preferred by the novice adventurer.)
(Nymph: Cane is a kind of staff/stick)
Round Shield / Grade: F / Cost: 3000 Kol
(Wooden shield, its light and easy to use.)
Sheryl chose suitable weapons from the shop and disyed them before me.
It seems that the bronze Grade F weapons are the ones which can be bought cheaply.
I let the goblen knight try and equip the various equipments as a trial.
The goblin knight who had a bronze sword in his right hand and a round shield in his left has looks appropriate for the name Knight.
Its presence ispletely different with the equipment! (Light: Hes intimidating desu)
If all the members of the goblin knights are fully equipped, there is no mistaking that a strongest knight corps will be formed.
By the way I do weapon maintenance free of charge! If the swords de ever turns dull, please bring it back to my shop. Ill service it for you!
I feel that the prices are reasonable anyways, and it doesnt matter much to me even if I choose this shop.
The me who made that decision/judgment, bought a single various weapons from the bronze series and three round shields.
Lets start with looking for good equipment together with Goblin Knight.
I am looking forward to tomorrows expedition.

Acquisition condition
More than 100 mana.
Employ/Enve a monster who uses the skill.
Speaking of it, isnt that thing more generally known as telepathy?
It is certain from the written exnation that it is considerably convenient skill.
If I am not mistaken from the written exnation stated there, its considerably a convenient skill.
I decide to try using the skill to contact Aphrodite and Carolina as a trial.
(Hey, hey. Right now Im in the middle of testing my new skill. I seem to have learned a telepathy skill, if you hear me, please respond in your mind.)
The moment after I use my skill contact.
Iprehend that the two bodies rxing on the bed react with a *Pikun*.
(Eh? No way? I am hearing Soutas words in my head?)
(Impressive! Its possible now to talk with master for 24 hours!)
Although they were surprised, Aphrodite and Carolina who received my messaged seemed impressed with my new skill.
Then.
I decide to continue inspecting the contact skill for a while.
How should I say Its as I expected.
At first impression the skill is convenient.
As an important note, in the end if its not via me then the Contact skill cant be used isnt.
In brief, I dont seem to be able to use it inbinations such as other monsters and Aphrodite or Carolina.
However.
Even considering that, theres no doubt that its a useful skill.
Especially as the skill contact is usable for beings inside the capsule ball.
From the point of view of the females in the ball, they have benefit of having the possibility of demanding things anytime they like
After the inspection of the contact skill was over, it is now time for thebination of monsters.
Due to me recklessly going on gathering missions, the things i have to do has piled up into a mountain pile.
I use Demon Combination and look for a pair whom I can evolve.
Then 10 minutester.
It seems there is only 1 possible demon evolution as follows.
Mad Marsh / ss: F
Encyclopedia # 732
Race: nt tribe
ss: D
Level 1

Attack Power: 10
Skill
Numbing powder, disorder powder
Evolution condition
Light Marsh x Amoeba Slug
Low ranked monster of the nt tribe.
Its strong point is its spore which makes the other party sexually excited.
The spore may be traded at a high price as it a material in an aphrodisiac.
The mad marsh seems to be a monster I can create by adding an Ameoba Slug to a Light Marsh.
A new skill Disorder powder was added to the entry.
Disorder powder / ss: D
(Long Distance Ranged attack. Skill which puts the other party into a sexually excited state.)
Uh-huh. I see.
Sexually excited state. Is it something like that?!
I think I need a quick inspection of this skill.
When the Mad Marsh was made using the Demon Combination skill, I decided to summon it into the room.
Noko~! Nokono~!
Mad marsh has a colour that is simr to Light marsh.
Other than the change in colour from yellow to pink, the difference in outer appearance cannot be seen.
If I have to state the difference, then is the mushroom umbre slightly bigger ?
Hey! Souta! You made a new monster again
Aphrodite who discovered the Mad Marsh which was summoned is approaching with great interest.
Still its convenient~. The demonbination skill. You can make a strong monster even if you only have this skill! In other words, the day when we can subdue the demon king and I can return to the heavens isnt too far way!
Aphrodite who came out from the bath with a bathrobe on, defenceless *Tsun Tsun*prod the mad marsh with her finger
To inspect the skills effect NOW IS THE PERFECT TIMING!
(Mad Marsh! Use Disorder Power!)
Just now, I noticed a serious fact.
In short, to say what significance it has.
Thebo of using Contact and disorder powder, the perfect crime of sexual harassment has been established.
The mad marsh who received my order spew out pink spores from its orange hat.
Cho!? What is this?! This powder?!
Nuo-! This pore..It came towards me..!
I was careless.
The Mad Marshes skill Disorder Powder seems to have a remarkablyrger attack range than numbness powder somehow or another.
The inside of the room has be filled with the pink spore.
As a result, I myself inhale some of the spore through my nose and mouth.
Huh? ..A little..My body is a little hot..
The first one to be abnormal was Aphrodite.
Aphrodite who received the dispersing spores at point nk range, gave *powapowa * an enchanted expression
..Souta. My bodys. Something is strange.
Aphrodite throws off the bathrobe she put on and reveals her underwear and figure.
Th-this is the effect of the Sexual excitement state!? (Ru: Yahooo!)
As for myself, my body is funny.
My body felt hot*Pokapoka* as though I had just drank a strong nourishment drink and Aphrodites body gradually looked like it became more and more erotic.
No.
Thinking calmly, Aphrodites erotic body is not the origin..
Please. Souta I can only hold on for a short while..
Aphrodite pushes my body down on the bed with her breath roughening.
Her face is so near that a sigh would touch.
Before long, Aphrodite slowly brings her face near my lips.
..What are you doing? Aphrodite-san
As I thought I heard a voice filled with killing intent, a huge amount of cold water poured onto Aphrodites head.
COLD!?
Did this make you wake up?
Ha~. The heck am I doing?
Aphrodite suddenly came to her sense due to the cold water and seeing me asks.
J-just a minute, Souta! Dont look at me like this!
Aphrodite who realized that she was straddling me in her underwear, jumped off from the bed and use her hands to cover her body.
This is wrong! How do say I was possessed by an evil spirit. Anyway, because Im something like Soutas possession, I do not like these sort of paltry things as well. Do not think in a weird way!
After bursting out those words, Aphrodite panicky dashes back into the bathroom.
As for Caroline who was spectating this scene all the while, she gave me a cold gaze.
(That female cat Making passes at my demon king! Kill. Kill Kill Kill Kill Kill.)
..Etto. That. Carolina-san?
Yes. What is it, Master?
(Not good. How thoughtless of me. I must control my feelings..)
Carolina looks back at me with an exceptional bi-shojou (beautiful girl) smile.
How extraordinary.
It appears somehow or another that through this contact skill, it seems like I had heard a part of Carolinas thoughts that was leaked out.
But even so, why did Carolina called me Demon king?
Etto. Well, now we know that cold water is effective against the skill of the mad marsh.
Yes. I know the countermeasure well as Mad Marshes would asionally appear in the vige I lived in previously.
I-is that so. Ill use it as a reference.
By the way Souta-sama. When inspecting a skill, couldnt you use me? Because Im different from Aphrodite, I wont run away even if Im ashamed.
In spite of using the contact skill.
Carolina seems to havee out after finding out I gave the order for the Mad Marsh to use its skill.
Ah. Ill think about it.
I wonder why.
If it was just a little while ago, it would be a line I would be jumping for joy at, but now I cant even rejoice obediently.
I who has be aware of Carolinas malicious true character after a while.
I spent the night being unable to fall asleep.
Chapter 31
A new request!?
The next day.
When I went to the adventurers guild, a mysterious crowd had formed around the bulletin board.
Wait a minute! An outrageous request has been posted.
I heard about it. A dragon has emerged within the forest.
You. Will you try epting it?
Is that a joke? Even if I could acquire arge fortune, I will still decline. My lifees first.
Dragon?
I push my way through the crowd in order to check the contents of the bulletin board.
Then, what was there.
Urgent Quest
Subjugation of the dragon bird. (Yian Kut Ku)
Required Rank: G
Sess condition: Subdue 1 cockatrice which has appeared in Gassur Forest.
Reward: 3,000,000 Kol
Repeat: Not possible.
The men are probably talking about the new request that was added Subjugation of the Dragon Bird.
Excuse me. It is about the the newly added dragon bird subjugation quest.. Could you tell me a little more about it.
Yes. The subjugation target this time is the demon called Cockatrice. It is an exceedingly dangerous meat eating dragon Its forte is breathing out red hot mes from its mouth.
I see. Understood.
Speaking of the Cockatrice, it gave me an image of a monster whose breath from its mouth will turn humans into stone.
From what they are saying, it seems that the Cockatrice of this world is limited to only breathing fire out its mouth and cant turn men to stone.
Nethertheless, this doesnt change the fact its a strong monster.
Now then.
What should I do now?
One way or another the risk is high, but the reward of 3,000,000 is certainly exceptional.
It may be worth taking the risk and challenging it.
Souta! Have you decided whether decide to receive this dragon subjugation quest or not?
Un.. Though its like that, I intend to put it on hold for the time being..
Ara? Why? The reward is 3,000,000, you know!? Its a chance to make a killing!
Usually in a situation like this, its a based on thew of equivalent exchange.. Would the reward be 3,00,000 kol if the cockatrice dragon subjugation request was only a little dangerous?
Aphrodite adopts a serious tone as she tries to persuade me with reproachful eyes.
A great statementing from a person who threw the capsule ball at the Goddess me Souta has changed in an unexpected way to be conservatively sound..
Leave it!
I am the type to raise my level plenty before advancing onto the next map in an RPG!
In this different world where you can die for real, taking an overly careful stance is perfect..
I think Masters judgement is wise. Speaking of the Cockatrice; if its just a single vige, it is monster notoriously known to burn it down easily. I guess that sort of battle capability isparable even to us demon tribes.
Hora. Even Carol has said so. Lets proceed conservatively.
Well, if thats the case then I dont particrly mind. But in that manner, the day that Souta defeats the Maou will be dragged further away.
Aphrodite who received my steadfast deration to the bitter end, gave out a small sigh.
Chapter 32
Trantor: Fairy
Settling the trouble in the different world
Painful! Just what am I doing?
Behave yourself! This chibi woman! (Ru: ;-; Wut)
Today, in order to earn my daily ie, as I walked towards Zumarias wend, for some reasons, I heard this rude conversation in the middle of the streets.
General Weapons Store Crimson des
When I looked towards the direction of the voice, it came from a shop that I recognised.
Sheryl,the girl who is running the weapon store in Saintbell Street is quarreling with a Mohican dude with bad looks.
Ora! Come out here quickly! Come to my firm and lets talk carefully over it.
.Uguu. I am against violence!
The Mohican dude forcibly grasped Cheryls hair and drag her away from the shop.
D and Carol please standby in the ball? It seems that something has be really troublesome
I understand~
Acknowledged
Once the girls returned back into the ball, I walked towards the Mohikan dude.
I am sorry. Is there something wrong?
HUUHHH? Who the hell are you?
So-Souta-san!?
Why in the zes does she know my name?
I have some doubts about it but thinking about it carefully, during the time I entered Sheryls shop to buy goods, I remembered that I made a membership card.
I am sorry but this isnt your problem. Outsiders should just stay back.
Even if the matter got escted, it will just make the matter worse.
I as much as possible try not worsen the other partys mood by trying to polite and finding a way out of this.
There is nothing much to be guilty/shady about it? Its just a job of collecting on debts, thats all. Incidentally, this is the IOU
I see. But isnt it difficult to prepare such arge sum of money?
Ahh. Therefore I had gave you an advice to dispose of this ragtag shop to prepare the money quickly
Th-This shop is the shop that my Master had left behind for me! I cannot just easily surrender this shop to other!
Also from the fact that she took over the shop at an age of 13, I thought she should have some kind of circumstances/reason but
On Sheryls side, something out of ordinary had urred.
.. And so. If you cannot prepare the money, it cant be helped. It has been decided that this girl will work as a ve to pay back the money.
It should be paid back in monthly installments! Why has it be stricter so the point that you must collect it now!
Shut up! Various matters have happened as well. I seriously do not want to do it as well. The high ssed ve who was nned to be sold to the high ss noble to receive a huge amount money has escaped and my groups quota has suddenly jumped Really, although its such a stupid timing where has Baguraja-sama gone to?
The Mohican dude unpleasantly gave a grumble.
I who heard the dudes words generally understood the reason for the trouble this time.
It appears somehow or another that the reward the guys shop should have received after selling Carolina has vanished into thin air. It seems like this loss ended being shifted onto Sheryl.
No matter how I think about it, it seems like its my responsibility.
Isnt that so?
Going back to the root of the problem, If I did not capture Carolina into the capsule ball, this trouble will not happened in the first ce.
Ano Although theres the debt Is it impossible for me to shoulder it and pay?
So-Souta-san!?
At my abrupt proposal, Sheryl opened her eyes wide in surprise.
..Ha. Do not make meugh. What can be expected from an adventurer with such poor and smelly equipment ?
Certainly with normal request, raising 3 000 000 coils within a short period of time is impossible.
However, there is only 1 method of doing it.
Haha! Dont talk big. What can we get by waiting? What do you have to make us able to trust you?
Well Well. Dont say that. It seems like you are being deceived.
I took out a gold coin from my pocket and ced it into the mohicans fist.
This is the advance payment, If I break the promise and run away, you can just have the gold coin.
When the dude received the bribe, his face immediately ckened and understood.
.Ha!. This is interesting. If you say it like that, I will try waiting for a while. However, no matter how much I wait, nothing can be changed.
.
The mohican dude who received the gold coin left Sheryls store in a good mood.
However.
For todays expedition, it seems that a change in destination is necessary.
Ill aim at Gassur forest To kill the dragon in order to get rich quick!

Trantor: Rumanshi

Godly eyes
Then.
After walking for an hour, we arrived at Gassur forest.
Its impossible! To subdue a cockatrice with this amount of peopleits impossible!
Sherylsplexed turned blue when I spoke about the method to raise 3,000,000 cols and advocated a dissenting opinion.
When speaking of the Cockatrice, its a monster famous amongst uz cksmithz! Because this dragon pozzezzes strong scales which are the materials used in high quality protective gear that the kingdomz knights wear. However! The Cockatrice iz originallya monster which even 10 skilled adventurerz cant fight against.
.you should have waited in town if you thought so.
Thats not what Im saying! Thiz, izz a problem of myzelf and my masterz. I couldz not show my face in front of my mazter if another person gotz involved and injured!
Hey. I thought it a while ago, but why is Sheryl managing a store by herself? You said master, but, where is he now?
If he just suddenly disappeared and pushed the stores debt to Sheryl, then this is not a too cruel story.
Thiz Being frank, onzelf doez not know either. Master waz a remarkable cksmith while alzo being a remarkable adventurer. Two yearz ago.. He went to subjugate demonic beingz and haz never returned.
So thats what happened
As further investigation seems like itd be like taking a snake out from a thicket, I stop.
She has her own circumstances.
I understand that Sheryl is worried, but its alright! I look like this but in fact, Im really strong! I will not lose to a dragon!
EttoHow do I say thisWill it really be alright? Saying thiz might be rude..but I dont really see it that way. (Nymph: Shes talking about MCs strength)
Guha-!
The numbers in my status seem pretty high looking at it like this, but as expected I dont seem to be too strong.
I am aware of it myself, so the next time a girl points it out I wont feel hurt.
Its reasonable for Sheryl-chan to say! When judging by appearance, Souta does not seen like the reliable type at all! However, you should feel relieved. Because the goddess of love and beauty Aphrodite is on Soutas side!
Aphrodite sticks out her chest and makes a hmph sound.
Aphrodite is One of the twelve gods of Olympus!? Nono, by no meanz could you meanz that. Onezelf may be a countryman, but thiz one would not fall for such an obvious lie!
I thought about it at the time with Carolina, but Aphrodites poprity in this world is truly an amazing thing.
Fu~n. If you cant believe it, Ill prove it. Let me see E~ I see. Your three sizes from the top are 86 58 83. Is Sheryl-chan the type to be enormous when she takes it off? Its a pretty nice body for your height.
Wh-. Whahaha!? Where did youz get thiz information!?
Fufufu. If I use the skill that only the divine can use [Godly eyes] then I can see through anything.
STOP ! I believe! I believe you! Dont zpeak about my own information in front of souta-zan anymore!
Sheryl began to use all her effort in an attempt to seal Aphrodites mouth with teary eyes.
Tsu~ka, you Wasnt it the case that you were under a cursewhen you came to the ground?
Fufufu. I certainly said that. However, did I say this? The capsule ball has a healing power which can heal the curse. To tell you the truth, the Godly eyes skill returned a while ago~
Gununu!
In addition to the three sizes, theGodly Eyesskill can even see the colour of the panties.
Such a thing is quite the enviable ability.
The Gods eyes skill has the feeling of being a strengthened version of Soutas Judgement eyes. If you want to make use of my skill then say Aphrodite-sama Please lend me your assistance while licking my shoes. Like that, I may think about it?
Kuso-!
Being truthful, Id like to kneel down in front of Aphrodite right now.
And Id like for her to tell me the colour of the panties of the beautiful girls walking around the town to no end.
However.
If something like that is requested, the mood of the group of surrounding women being ruined can be seen in the future.
Master. By the way, my panties are ck?
Due to the Gods Eyes skill being too enviable, she almost went mad with jealousy.
The motivated Carolinater on sneakily told the color of the panties.
Her affection managed to make me stay in line somehow.
Chapter 34
Trantors:Rumanshi, Rinkage, Osura
The blood of the wolf
By the way, Souta. Arent we splitting up for todays expedition?
Aa. Im not sure what kind of timing is required to encounter a cockatrice.
The expedition this time carries arge amount of riskpared to the previous ones.
Cockatrice, the demon that became our main objective is a formidable enemy that has a set reward of 3 mil Coll in just a single subjugation.
It is certainly more efficient to split up and search for it but as this is first time Sheryl will be participating thus this will be thest resort.
I summon three Goblins to serve the role as bodyguards.
Gobuu! Gobuuu! x3
My strongest fighting force at present is my D Rank Werewolf. This guy serves as myst resort! so I had thought of saving him for urgent situation like that.
I decided to equip 3 goblin knights with the equipment that I had just purchased.
Goblin Knight Lv 1 (Under employment)
Right Hand: Bronze Sword
Left Hand: Round Shield
Goblin Knight LV1 (Under employment)
Right Hand: Bronze Lance
Left Hand: Round Shield
Goblin Knight LV 1 (Under employment)
Right hand: Bronze Mace
Left hand: Round Shield
The goblin knights had a more reliable atmosphere now that I equipped them with a weapon and a shield.
Oo~. Seeing demons holding the weaponz which onezelf has made givez an odd feeling!
Sheryl, with an excited face, eagerly observed the goblin knights appearance.
Well then.
Since we went to a different area,
let s go ahead test the goblin knights fighting ability, while also searching for the cockatrice.
With that judgement I advanced through the animal trail where trees were growing thickly.
After walking for a short time, a monster encounter urred.
Gau~! Gau~!
The enemy numbers seven.
Though I am ustomed to fighting wolves, this is the first time there are so many.
Although normally Id go with the throw the capsule ball and capture it pattern without hesitation, but Ive already decided to use the goblin knights to try to defeat them for this time.
(Go! Goblin knights!)
When I use the contact skill to give them orders, the three goblin knights, with their individual weapons in hand, charge in.
It seems to have been the correct decision to have them carry weapons.
The goblin knights swing the weapons in their hands and continue kicking the wolves one after the other.
Okay. Thats enough. Now you can just stay back.
Gobuu! x3
It didnt take much time for the wolves heads to be smashed and turned into lumps of flesh.
If I were to say one thing Im curious of, it would be about the fact that, depending on the weapon I had them use, the amount of time before they can annihte the wolves varies greatly.
Inparison to the bronze sword and bronzence which took a long time to defeat the wolves, the goblin knight with the bronze mace could render a wolf incapacitated in just one or two hits.
I cant imagine that theres that much of a difference in the performance of each of the weapons.
Which would mean, its got something to do withpatibility?
GauGau..
Eh? So there was a survivor.
Im guessing that one of the lesspatible weapons couldnt finish it off.
One of the wolf that is already bleeding from the forehead, groaned.
Master, if it is alright..could you give one of the wolf that is still alive there to me?
I dont mind it but what will you be using him for?
We vampires have a disposition where we need to take in an animals blood periodically, or we wont be able to continue living. Out of all the animals, the fresh (lit. still-living) blood of wolf-species are especially high in nutritional value to us and a staple food.
I see. Then you can use the wolf here as you like.
Thank you very much, master.
Err, will you not be drinking it?
..No. I mean, it is embarrassing to be seen anyone when I am draining the blood.Id appreciate it if you could turn to the back for a while.
I-Is that so.
Carolina seemed to be fidgeting as she blushed.
Even though she doesnt mind it when she was seen getting attacked by the tentacles, she doesnt want to be watched when shes eating?..
I dont really understand Carolinas standard of embarrassment.
Anyway theres no helping it if Carolina has said it herself that she doesnt want to be seen.
Turning my back on the still-embarrassed Carolina, it happened then.
Master! Above!
Carolina suddenly let out an rmed, surprised cry.
When I look up as told, a dragon reaching three metres long was right in the midst of descending from the sky, aiming at the ground.
Chapter 35
The predation of the dragon bird.
The highlight up to here.
When I defeated some wolves in the forest, the cockatrice suddenly appeared.
Cockatrice Rank B LV24/30
Vitality: 328
Attack Power: 222
Magic Power: 415
Mana: 153
Skills
ording the the judgement eye skill, the enemy monsters rank is B!
When I confirmed the status, all the values were abnormally high.
The monsters Ive encountered up to now seem only like small fry whenparing to the cockatrice.
Guggyaaaaaaaaaaa!
The cockatrice opened its jaw widely and gave a loud roar.
Then, in the next moment.
It spat out a red hot breath from its mouth.
..shit.
I sensed danger, and immediately returned Carolina and Aphrodite to the ball and evade the attack of the opponent.
Fugiyaaaa!? What are you doing!?
Kurae-! A single blow will ensure your death!
If I use the ball, no matter how the status of the opponent is, it is irrelevant.
I hurl a ball at the cockatrice aiming to turn things around with a single shot.
But yet.
The Cockatrice used itsrge wing in order to repel the capsule ball which I through.
(Wait a minute! Souta! Dont overdo it!)
(Master. I think what youve done here is wise.)
The two people use to contact skill and advise me from within the ball.
No.
However.
Turning my back on this monster would be the opposite of escaping, rather its an action that would be throwing my life away.
The cockatrice and I continued our staring match.
I can start to attack again because the ball I threw has already returned to my hand, but if I miss then a fatal gap might appear.
And then a little time passes.
The cockatrice averted its eyes first.
The cockatrice suddenly dove to the ground, and flew away with the living wolf in its mouth.
Meanwhile, in only 2 seconds it was finished quickly. (Ru: Ugh.)
..I, I was saved.
It seems that somehow, the cockatrices aim from the beginning was the wolf which I had defeated.
But, this is troubling.
I cannot save Sheryl without defeating that monster, but unfortunately, the difference in battle potential is just too great.
Is there no way to shoot an arrow back at that guy?
I stared at the figure of the dragon bird which disappeared into the clouds while preparing a method of subjugation in my head.
Chapter 36
Trantor: Rumanshi
Helpers: Yoshiro, Osura
Task assignment
..This is bad. The food which was going to be given to Carolina has been stolen.
No. Dont mind it. Putting that aside, master, isnt there an injury somewhere? (Y: do you happen to be injured?)
Ah. I didnt get injured somehow.
If Im forced to speak about it, at the beginning when avoiding the me I got scratched, but a wound to this extent should heal even if I leave it alone.
No. From masters arm, I can smell the scent of flowing (lit: new) blood. Perhaps you did more than just grazed your left arm around here? If its alright, may I treat the wound?
I give up. Carolina can see through anything.
When I rolled up the sleeve of my shirt to show the wound, Carolina tore up a handkerchief in recement of a bandage and applied first aid treatment.
It isnt a big deal. For generations, vampires have been sensitive to the smell of blood.
I, who heard the words of Carolina, had an idea sh in my head.
Hey. If Carolina is sensitive to the smell of blood, is it not possible for her to trace the scent of the wolf which was stolen by the cockatrice just a little while ago?
..Thats so, isnt it? I remember the smellpletely, so I dont think its impossible. I think I will be able to smell fresh blood from a distance of even 200 meters away.
My biggest concern when taking this quest was how we would track down the cockatrice.
If I can get a clue on information of the targets location, I believe we can be closer towards the cockatrice subjugation, without doubt.
Thank you. It was the right decision to befriend Karo.
At this point in time, I had seeded in creating a rough strategy for defeating the cockatrice.
However.
In order for the this times strategy to work, another person is needed at any cost.
A~a. It would have been nice if only some goddess would have been as useful as Caro.
Haa!? Wait a minute, Souta! Those words right now are inexcusable!
Likely have been irritated from the tone of making fun of her.
Aphrodite rebutted while rocking both her ripe and drooping breasts.
I will work (random shit)! Ill prove it, that even I am helpful to Souta!
Okay. Though there is a job I want you to do.. Such dangerous work By no means can it be entrusted to a girl.
Fufun. Could you stop belittling me? Even if I lost all my powers bying down to the surface, I am a Goddess, you know? I can do anything if its for Souta!
Alright, youll really do anything? Can I take that as a promise?
Huh?
By the way.
I got Aphrodites consent and I was able to secure one of the necessary cards.
After the cockatrice is located, the preparations to defeat it will have been made.
Hey, Sheryl. There is something I want to ask you to make in a bit, is it okay to ask you?
Ah, yez. If there iz anything myzelf can do.
As I work out a n to defeat the cockatrice, I swear to take revenge on that hateful bird-dragon.
Chapter 37
Trantor:Rumanshi / Jason
TLC:Jason
Rumanshi: Ive received asacrificevolunteer as well!
First sacrifice.
Then.
After wandering around the forest for about two hours.
With the help of Carolinas special ability of smelling blood, we finally seeded in locating the ce where the cockatrice was.
The cockatrice seemed to have made a bed in a particrlyrge tree in Gassur Forest and is in the middle of resting right now.
Still.. The smell is terrible.
Various bodies of creatures, starting from a wolf, were skewered on the branch of therge tree where the cockatrice is resting.
Exposing them to the sunlight, I wonder if its nning to make dried meat?
It was quite the picture of hell.
Now that I think of it, there seems to be a bird called Shrike that has a simr trait.
. hey. Why do I have to face such an experience!?
Aphrodite screamed after realizing the dangerous situation she ced herself in.
Hey, hey! Didnt D say she would do anything?
Uuuu I certainly said it but.. I said it but.! I didnt hear about being ced as a decoy! There is something called limits, isnt there!
Right now.
Aphrodite is being crucified on a tree trunk near the tree where the cockatrice is resting.
By the way, this rope is a special product which Sheryl manufactured by using the vine of a nt.
I named it.. Operation Cockatrice Seduction!
I guaranteed victory with the n I had thought of this time.
Souta is a demon! The devil! In spite of the uselessly refreshing name Kazehaya Souta! He is nothing but a brutal person!
The name has nothing to do with it. Its just a name.
Well, dont say that. This is a task that only you, the goddess of beauty, can do.
Only I can do this task..!?
Thats right. If its an ordinary girl, isnt it impossible to tempt a monster? This is a task that only the goddess of beauty, Aphrodite, can do!
.!?
Persuaded by me, Aphrodite had an expression like she suddenly realized something.
Fufu. Fufufu. It cant be helped~. Mou~~. Because without me, Souta cant do anything~
Yeah, Im always being helped by D.
Naturally, it is all a lie.
I do not think that monster bird would understand the appeal of a womans body.
I cant say it in front of that person no matter what, but.
Because this fellow with her extraordinary vitality would not get easily get injured in the event of an ident, I felt it was most suitable to make her the decoy.
Master..normally seems like he wouldnt even hurt a bug, but sometimes he does surprisingly horrible things.
Skillfully deceiving the goddess withpliments and making her the scapegoatSouta-san is cruelHes a brute
Caroline and Cheryl, who saw through my thinking, inserted stinging tsukkomis.
Ku
Even if its me, wont I still feel guilty?
However.
Id like to give defeating the cockatrice the highest priority right now.
Therefore, I cant afford to choose the means.
If this operation goes well, afterwards lets buy clothes that Aphrodite likes.

Carrying Out the Strategy
Even though I prepared bait to lure out the cockatrice, this time is the deployment of the monsters.
Above all, the one that holds the most weight in the n this time is the Mad Marsh.
I prepared for the cockatrices attack and summoned my monsters one by one, and at the end called the Mad Marsh that was the key.
Noko~!
The Mad Marsh with the pink mushroom umbre let out a weird sound as it wriggled its body back and forth.
I had the Mad Marsh move in front of the tree the cockatrice was sleeping in.
(Mad MarshDisorder Powder!)
The unexpectedly long range of this skill was already tested.
The Disorder Power released by two Mad Marshes reached all the way to the cockatrice that was resting in the tree.
Gugyaaaaaaaasu!
Cocaktrice Rank: B Lv 24/30 Current status (Sexually Excited)
Alright!
The first phase of the strategy was a sess!
When I used Judgement Eyes, I was able to confirm that the cockatrices status became Sexually Excited.
(D. Its gone smoothly up to now! Ill count on you for the rest!)
(Un. OK!)
Having confirmed that the strategy went well, I gave the sign to the goddess who was tied up by vines.
Ufu~n. Cockatrice-cha~n! Come here and do nice things with me
After confirming my sign, Aphrodite took a sexy pose while unnaturally calling out.
The cockatrice that fell to its arousal flew low like it was crawling on the ground and approached Aphrodite.
However.
Gyaaaaa! Souta!! Quick Souta! Save me!!
Wheres the seduction from up until a while ago?
Having lost to the intensity of the approaching cockatrice, Aphrodite cried out while struggling with her arms and legs.
(Goblin Knights! Assemble into formation!)
I hurled instructions to the ten Goblin Knights who were deployed in advance and sealed the cockatrices movements.
I can think of two movement patterns for the cockatrice from here.
Gugooooooooooooooo!
The effectiveness of its arousal is terrifying!
The result is the second one.
The aroused cockatrice charged at the heavyweight Goblin Knights without slowing down at all.
The moment when the cockatrice collided with the Goblin Knights, the best chance arrived.
(Light MarshNumbing Powder!)
I gave an order to the Light Marshes who were deployed ahead of time and they fired their spores at the stopped cockatrice.
Gegegegege!
The cockatrice, which had inhaled a ton of spores, blew up a huge cloud of dust rolling around on the ground like a caterpir and moving its huge wings.
Ku. This guy!
Even though its movements were sealed with numbness, it was resisting violently.
If the other party recovers from numbness, itll be troublesome.
If it escapes to the air I wont have a way to beat the cockatrice next time.
I ordered the Goblin Knights to try and hold down the cockatrice.
Gugyaaaaasu!
But because it didnt stop moving, the number of monsters gradually increased and opposed it.
The result.
Around when I had sent 14 Goblin Knights, they somehow seeded in rendering it powerless.
After a little while, the cockatrice convulsed and unbelievably became docile.
I confirmed that the match was over and stroked my chest in relief.
Chapter 39
Trantor:Jason
At the ve Merchants
I want to talk about what happened after that.
When I returned with the cockatrices head as the proof of subjugation, there was a tremendous uproar at the Adventurers Guild.
This was a story that could be understand afterwards, but it seemed like the cockatrice I defeated was a female near her breeding season.
The evidence for that was therge egg in her nest.
I was a bit surprised that the cockatrice was aroused by Aphrodite, but if I think about it now I understand.
It had probably left the monsters that had be bait hanging in the branches in preparation for raising young.
Because it seemed that I would be able to sell the defeated cockatrices scales for arge sum, I passed the materials I stripped off to Sheryl.
Because she helped out with themission this time too, its appropriate to prepare properpensation.
Several days after subduing the cockatrice.
Having received the promised 3 million col from the Adventurers Guild, I went to the Bakuraja Company to pay off Sheryls debt.
Its no good. This small amount is definitely not sufficient, yknow?
After taking the bag with precisely 300 gold coins from me, the debt collector gave off a mean smile.
What are you talking about?
Rich adventurer-san~. Do you know what interest is? You cant maintain an old debt for a long time at the same amount.
I see. I know what interest is. By the way, about how much is remaining after that amount?
Hmm. Wait a bit. Ill calcte it now.
The Mohican man looked over the documents in his hands while making an expression like he was stifling a yawn.
Well, about 3 million col. If you can prepare just that amount, this talk of bing a ve can be forgotten.
I was sure listening up to there.
This man wasnt nning to ept the repayment of the debt from the beginning.
Because I prepared such arge sum as 3 million col in a short time, the other side misunderstood that I was the young master of some nice ce or something like that.
At any rate, he was definitely nning to wring out from me what he could.
How about it? Thats right. There are the results this time, so how about next I give you two weeks?
Dont joke around. Such a request
Ill pay.
The one who unexpectedly interrupted me was Sheryl, who had apanied me there.
Sheryl put a bag with money on the table with a loud thump.
Hey.
With this Im free! I humbly apologize for all the trouble until today.
Y-you!? How did you get this much money!?
Without paying attention to the flustered Mohican, Sheryl rose soundly from her seat.
Souta-san. Lets go.
Ye-yeah.
With a refreshing smile as if a demon just fell, Sheryl pulled my sleeve and we left the store.
Nevertheless, a big sum like 3 million coljust how did she prepare that?
I heard that the scales from the cockatrice only sold for about 300,000 col.
Wait up. Just now I was wrong! It was a joke! I corrected the calction and the interest is 5 million col! Therefore, with just this amount, lets restart the conversation about selling you as a ve!
The debt collector rushed to stand in front of the door and blocked our escape.
This bastardhow much of a brute is he!?
He got 3 million each from me and Sheryl, for a total of 6 million col, so wouldnt it be fine if he just withdrew obediently?
He doesnt seem to know when to give up.
No, thats wrong.
When looking at his impatience, its what you would see if he had alreadypleted the negotiations for Sheryl earlier.
If I assume that hes in a situation where he cant cancel the contract no matter how much money he gathers, then I can somewhat understand him.
Souta-san.
Its alright. Because Im very strong. Dont worry.
To Sheryl who looked at me uneasily and tugged my sleeve, I spoke encouragingly.
Different from earlier, this time I was probably able to clearlyfort her.
Sheryl silently nodded.
Step back! Brute!
Hah! Im not an idiot who withdraws when Im told to withdraw! You should just shut up and prepare money for me!
The debt collector pulled a dagger out from his breast and threatened us.
Itd be pointless to talk anymore.
Thats right.
There is a perfect monster to punish this man.
Go. Werewolf.
With all its might, the werewolf I summoned from inside the ball knocked the man standing in front of the door off his feet.
Guga!
The man who let out a bitter groan flew five meters. Blood was pouring from his face and his body was convulsing.
Ill warn you. Dont appear in front of us again a second time. Next time we meet Ill definitely crush your head, alright?
Obo. Obobo.
With blood frothing out of his mouth, he became teary-eyed and nodded.
In this situationhis long-awaited money will probably disappear into the doctors bill.
With this, after much trouble.
I was able to resolve the problems surrounding Sheryl and the girls.
Having been able to stop his subordinates violent acts, the werewolf (previously Bakuraja-san) was certainly crying in joy.

Epilogue ~ The 3rd Companion
I see. So in the end, you sold the shop, huh?
Yez. I was already thinking about it a little bit, so I just went and sold it.
Having left the ve traders, I was inquiring about the source of the 3 million col that Sheryl had prepared.
But is that alright? It was the precious shop your master had left you, right?
Yes. But, its ok. I was nning to get out of the shop once and search in earnest for my master. The way Ive been living, being forced to work, I havent gotten any clues with which to search for my master. I think that iz more important than being obsessed about my work.
Yeah. Thats a good thought, huh?
If Sheryls master was alive.
That person too probably wouldnt wish to see her bound to the shop and be unhappy.
And soSouta-zan. Thiz time, I earnestly have something I wish to ask, but. Pleasecould you let me be one of yourpanions? Sheryl said with her eyes burning determinedly.
Ummm. Bypanion, do you mean you want to travel with me?
Yez! Even though I wanted to travel, because the only thing I can do is make thingz. If Souta-zan would ept me as his personal cksmiththat would really help me.
.
There is nothing to feel guilty about!
My long-term goal in this world it to defeat the demon king who was predicted to revive at some point.
Sheryls master cut offmunication after going to subjugate demons.
In that case, she can probably find clues by travelling with me.
Wait. Souta. You arentthinking something wicked, are you?
Master. Are you nning to do something horrible even to her?
Aphrodite and Carolina, who noticed my ulterior motives, raised criticizing voices.
Its fine. Sheryl. If its that sort of thing, youre wee with us.
R-really!?
Uh-huh. But, there is one condition. Sheryl. Can you stand over there with your back turned for a bit?
Ummm. Like thiz?
Yeah. Like that. Its a good feeling.
I threw the capsule ball at Sheryls defenseless back.
Na!? What the heckis this!?
The capsule ball suddenly radiated a dazzling light and sucked up Sheryls body.
The result.
Before I knew it, Sheryls body hadpletely entered the capsule ball.
Wh-where is thiz!? L-let me out~!?
Confused by the sudden situation, Sheryl teared up and beat on the inner walls of the ball.
Having acquired the third beautiful girl, I
Speaking honestlythere will be a lot of worries living in a different world from now on.
Will I ever be able to safely return to Japan?
Before thatwill I be able to defeat the demon lord?
There is still a mountain of problems, but even if I worry about it theres nothing I can do.
For the time being, lets reflect upon the joy of being able to meet my thirdpanion.

The Morning of the Beginning
The Second Chapter Starts Today
One morning.
When I opened my eyes, there were three beautiful girls sleeping on the same bed.
.
While rubbing my drowsy eyes, I checked the state of each of those three.
Munyamunya. Soutastill eating?
First, the name of the beautiful girl snoring and hugging a dakimakura1near me was Aphrodite.
Aphrodite, with her extraordinary blonde-haired, blue-eyed figure, was the self-proimed goddess of beauty and had a wless appearance.
Even now it felt like my reason was going to fly away staring at her two breasts that were peeking out through the gap in her nightclothes and that were so big they were about to fall out.
Suu. MasterIm so happy. You have finally noticed your true identity.
Next, the name of the girl apologetically sleeping on the edge of the bed was Carolina Burton.
Carolina, who had silver hair and red eyes and who was slender and well-proportioned, gave off a bewitching appeal different from Aphrodites.
Carolina, who was born into the unique race of vampires, was surprising because, with this appearance, she was already over 300 years old.
Souta-zanthere is no good! Its embarrassing. As I thoughtSouta-zan is a brute.
And thest introduction.
The name of the girl with bad sleeping posture and who had fallen half off the bed was Sheryl OTelrod.
Before she met me, Sheryl was managing a weapons store, but due to unavoidable circumstances she is now travelling with me.
Sheryl, who had a short stature of 150 centimeters2, was endowed with the cuteness of a mascot, unlike the other two.
Alright.
There were various ces to tsukkomi, but let me just say this.
You guyswhat kinds of dreams are you all having!?
Sharing a bed with beautiful girls is supposed to be good, but because this room was originally rented for one person, I was unable to sleep well for various reasons.
Previously, the three of them had obediently stayed in the ball withoutint, but recently there were many times where they wanted to leave one way or another.
Muu.
In order to protect my pleasant sleep, I somehow have toe up with a countermeasure.
Lets try listening to their reasons once they wake up.
Eh~. Before we venture out today, I want to talk to you guys.
An hourter.
I peeled Aphrodite, who wouldnt wake up no matter how much time passed, off the bed, gathered the three of them, and began speaking formally.
What is it, so suddenly? Was it necessary to disturb the sleep of I, the goddess of beauty?
.
Because she was woken up forcibly, Aphrodite was clearly unhappy.
I prefer this to having my sleep disturbed, but.
Recently you guys seem to tantly hate being inside the ball butis there a reason?
.
When I asked them that, I felt like the three of them tantly averted their eyes.
ording to what Aphrodite said earlier.
Inside the ball is aplete environment unimaginable by Earthsmon sense where you dont get hungry or thirsty and where stress wont umte.
Why would they choose the cramped bed over such a pleasant environment?
Ive thought something was strange for a while now.
Th-that isthat! Certainly thefort inside the ball is good butall the same, Im tired of being restricted in what I can do.
I see. Youre tired of the inside of the ball, huh?
It cant be helped that I dont understand since Ive never been inside it, but since the person who has said so, it must be so.
Caro, do you have the same reason?
No. If I had to say, Ie out with the goal of monitoring if Aphrodite is going to attempt a yobai3with you, Master.
Haaaaaa!? Wait! Caro! Who is going to go after whom!?
Aphrodite, having received Carolinas remark, blushed furiously and denounced it.
You already have a previous offense, dont you? When you received the Mad Marshs Disorder Powderdont tell me you forgot?
Uu. C-certainly I feel like there was such a thing, but. That was more like an ident.
The Mad Marshs Disorder Powder, which was effective at inflicting a Sexually Excited status on the target, was effective at destroying the reason of living creatures.
Having been admonished by Carolina, Aphrodite withered like her authority earlier was a lie.
By the way, whats your reason, Sheryl?
Umm. Its not that I was bored, but when the other two were outside, I was lonely being the only one inside the ball.
I see. There are various reasons, huh.
In any case, I was able to identify the cause of the disturbance.
Having gotten to the bottom of things, it seems that Aphrodites boredom inside the ball was the beginning of everything.
In that case, I can only think of one way to resolve it!
It should be fine if I put things in the ball that can distract from boredom.
And so I listened to the requests the three girls had for supplies inside the ball.
Eh? Things I want to use inside the ball? Hmm. Well. I guess a high-ss, fluffy bed like the one I used when I was in heaven?
It doesnt matter to me what kind of good if its something I can receive from master. But, if I had to give a specific example, probably books? I think that if there were a library in the ball then everyone would be able to stave off boredom.
For me, definitely materials to make weapons! The moments when I process high-quality materials is a time of supreme bliz for me!
And so when I listened to the girls requests for items to bring into the ball, the result was as below.
Aphrodite A fluffy canopy bed
Carolina A library with books from anywhere and any time
Sheryl Ores that have the toughness and stickiness4necessary to make weapons
Ku.
They gave me requests with a considerably high difficulty.
Sheryl was especially awful.
What the heck are Ores that have toughness and stickiness ?
This already transcends the level of supplies!
But.
They are not things I couldnt gather if I received money from quests.
This doesnt mean that I have a problem that needs solved quickly.
Lets aim to acquire the things they requested in a short time.
I headed to the Adventurers Guild with a new determination.

A New Hunting Ground!?
Chloe Gryce

Congrattions! After considerationSouta-sans adventurer rank has been raised to F Rank!
When I arrived at the Adventurers Guild, the receptionist Chloe-chan congratted me.
By the way, Chloe-chan is a high-level beauty with a small body and shoulder-length ck hair.
Her cat ears on top of her head are too splendid!
Umm. Is that something to be happy about!
In the first ce, is F Rank something good?
Because there are eight adventurer ranks from S to G, I felt that one rank-up wasnt a big deal.
Of course! Honestly, Souta-sans leveling speed is exceptional even among the exceptions. They say it normally takes a novice adventurer one year to raise their rank to F!
It seems that the guild assessed Souta-sans service in the Cockatrice Subjugation Quest the other day.
Is that so?
Certainly, the cockatrice I fought before was a fierce enemy.

Because it was me, with the divine protection that can make any monster mypanion 100% of the time, I somehow did it, but.

Due to your adventurer rank rising, new quests that you can ept have been added! For the full details, please look at the guild board.
Understood.
Having received Chloe-chans exnation, I went to the board with jobs posted for F Rank adventurers.
Then after ten minutes.

Look!
These quests overflowing with romance!
These ores can all be collected at the Ares Mine area, which is a two-hour walk from Saint Bell.
Its hard to understand because the reward is gram unit price, but it seems to be quite favorable conditions.
To the say the least, the highest rank tinum ore is three times the price of the gold ore.
In other wordsits possible to get rich quick if I by some mistake obtain arge quantity of tinum ore.
And, well, even I dont expect things to go well to that extent.
Its be a stroke of luck if I could find the Ores that have the toughness and stickiness necessary to make weapons that Sheryl requested in this mine.
Having epted new quests, I lightly headed off to Ares Mine.

To the Mine
We promptly walked out of Saint Bell, and finally arrived at our destination.
This is Ares Mine, huh?
How do I say it, it seemed like cheese filled with holes.
There were countless entrances along the vertical slope of the mine.

Oh!
Isnt that the evolved form of the goblin, Goblin Elite, over there!?
I guess the goblin elites live on this rocky mountain.
Theyre precious materials forbinations, but lets ignore them since the ball wont reach if I throw it from here.
Ares Mine is an area where many miners oncemuted to from Saint Bell.
But I heard that the mining has been left to adventurers because recently the profits have been going down and the number of monsters appearing has increased.
As expected of Caro. Shes well-informed.
Thank you for those words of which I am unworthy. However, if it is regarding knowledge in this field, Sheryl-san should know it much better.
Thats right. Cause Sheryls a weapons dealer.
Since that point was raised, I looked to Sheryl, but somehow her body was trembling oddly.
Uoooooo! Its the mine after a long time! My blood iz boiling!
Suddenly Sheryl brandished the guild-issued pickaxe with a hum.
Hold on.
Being motivated is good, but no matter what, isnt her tension too high?
Ah. Right. Perhaps Sheryls race, the gnomes, really loves earth and stone?
Az expected of Souta-zan! Thats exactly it!
The knowledge I cultivated in games is useful.
It seems that my expectations were right on the mark.
We gnomes were originally called Spirits of the Earth. We eat the ores taken from ces like this. If tasty-looking ores are found, we head right over!
I-is that so?
No matter how much her appearance is that of a beautiful girl, the figure of her happily eating ore would be somewhat severe.
Lets pretend I didnt hear what she just said.
While thinking that, I headed inside the mine.
In the newly published GA Novel,

Being able to get this far is thanks to you, the readers.

Motivation Boost
Nuo! This isdarker than I thought.
Even though it was still the afternoon, the inside of the mine was darker than I thought it would be.
Because the entrance was right in front of my eyes it was a little better, but my vision got worse farther inside.
Ummwe did getnterns from the guild, right?
We had a set of two items that we received from the guild when we epted this quest, a pickaxe and a pocketntern.
Incidentally, in regards to these items, they were, as expected, not free.
One pickaxe was 5000 col and one pocketntern was 2000 col.
In other wordsat this point, adding up three people we already have 21,000 col in expenses.
Preparing tools for four people was a painful expense.
In particr, the pocketntern is an item the consumption of which is intense and requires recement often.
Master. Please be at ease.
When I took out a pocketntern from the ball, a ball of me flew out from Carolinas index finger.
Oh. It suddenly got brighter, huh?
Its a magic called shlight that lights up the darkness. This magic canst for 8 hours when you use it.
As expected of Carolina!
If we can use magic, we can keep down the consumption of the pocketnterns.
I want to say that it would have been good if she said something before I bought thenterns, butsaying that would be boorish.
You saved us. As I thought, Caro is reliable.
Thank you very much. I am unworthy of such words.
On the other hand, the one who isnt reliable is our goddess.
When I thought that she had been strangely obedient for a while, Aphrodite rushed ahead of the other members to collect the ores.
Fufufu. Souta! Look at this!
[emailprotected][1]Grade G
(Normal stone with nothing unusual)
Aphrodite, with a smug look on her face, was carrying arge amount of ore in her arms.
Look at this! you sayIsnt that just normal stone?
Na! Eh! Lies!? But this stoneeven though its this shiny and smooth!?
If you think its a lie, try using your Gods Eyes skill.
When I pointed that out, Aphrodite angrily threw the stones in her arms.
Na. It really is! Kuyouve got some nerve to trick this goddess, dont you!
No no no. Use your Gods Eyes skill from the beginning. Are you just going to waste such an incredibly convenient skill?
The Gods Eyes skill that only the gods can have seems to be even more effective than my Judgement Eyes.
Judgement [emailprotected] Grade B Active
(A skill that can see through the abilities of items and creatures that exist in Adelheid)
As a matter of fact, Im jealous.
If I made use of Aphrodites Gods Eyes skill, I could see clearly not just girls three sizes, but even the color of their underwear.
Uuu. Even if you say thatGods Eyes uses a lot of magical power so I cant just use it recklessly.
I-is that so?
If thats the situation, then Aphrodites power wont really be reliable during this quest.
In other words, well operate like normal.
We have no choice but to somehow do this job with the remaining three people and the monsters power.
Crude Iron [emailprotected] Grade G
(Ore that contains very little iron)
Oh. This stone is!
And then after walking for a little while, we discovered a seemingly valuable ore fallen by the roadside.
Hey. Sheryl. How is this stone?
Unfortunatelythere isnt anyone who buy thiz kind of scrap iron. In the first ce, there shouldnt be any valuable materials left in this ce.
Ugu!
Certainly, if she says that.
When I think about it calmly, this stone was probably given a low value by adventures who tossed it and went home.
But, if thats the case, isnt the chance of us being able to find ore hopeless? Since the valuable ores have probably been taken by the people who came before.
Yez. Thats why this ce haz such a vibethen well just have to dig it out ourselves!
Sheryl prefaced by saying so, then took the pickaxe in hand and brandished it towards the ground.
Copper [emailprotected] Grade F
(Ore with a lot of copper)
Iron [emailprotected] Grade F
(Stone with a lot of iron)
Ohh!
It came out! It came out!
The ore was buried surprisingly nearby, huh?
Amazing! How do you know where the ore is buried!?
Thiz isnt a big deal. Its because we gnomes eat ore. We can roughly understand where theyre buried by smell.
I didnt know that.
I guess when your favorite food is ore you can use such an ability.
Hey hey.
Perhaps this isHasnt our chance to get rich quick be much closer!?
H-hey. Sheryl. If thats the case, can you use that to show us around to the ces where a lot of ore wille out?
Yeah. Naturally I waz nning to do that, but. But! Whats wrong Souta-zan!? Scary! Your eyes are scary!
Is that so? Im the same as always, though?
Not at all! I feel like some distance suddenly got closerWhy so suddenly!?
Crap!
I was blinded by greed and my skinship became excessive.
Ive got to be careful.
If Im hated by Sheryl, then this operation will be totally wasted.
Hey. Caro. We arentthinking the same thing, are we?
What a coincidence. Just nowI was thinking about saying the same thing.
Hm?
What are you two whispering secretly about?
I wont let Sheryl-chan be the only one you think well of!
I wont let you monopolizeMasters affection!
I dont really understand why, but is this result alright?
When I had some skinship with Sheryl, I felt like mes of motivation lit in the other twos eyes.

S-souta-zan! The smell of ore izing from this room!
Then.
Sheryl walked a little bit and excitedly pointed at a rock wall.
Ohh! If you understand, try searching right away.
Just wait!
The one who stopped me from collecting ore with my pickaxe was Aphrodite.
Souta! I wonderif you wont leave one to me? Watch, Ihave confidence in my ability to mine.
Ohh! Seriously!?
You cant judge someone by their appearance!
Its reassuring to have someone who has done this before.
Yep. Even if I say how, when I yed Monster Hunter[1] with the other gods and we went hunting, Im the girl who collected ore single-handedly while everyone else fought the boss! I wont lose to Sheryl, who suddenly appeared!
.
So it was about a game.
Werent you just leeching off of the other yers!?
Well, the truth is I never had any expectations about Aphrodites work from the beginning.
Pay close attention to my work!
Aphrodite dered, sticking out her big chest, and brandished the pick axe with all her might.
GodAttaaaaaaaaack!
Wow!
So this is a goddesss power!
Each time Aphrodite swung the pick axe, her two breasts swayed greatly.
Speaking of that destructive power, its really appropriate for the name god!
Ah.
By the way, her mining technique was very much average.
Wai! Aphrodite-zan! Handling it so roughlywhat will we do if the stone gets damaged!?
Its bad?
Its decidedly bad! Please lend it to me!
Sheryl seized the pickaxe from Aphrodite and matter-of-factly began working.
As expected from Sheryl, the one who managed the weapons store, her hands were skillful.
Her mining speed was almost three times as much as Aphrodites.
Sheryl continued to carefully do a good job.
Kaha! Jobmy job is!
Aphrodite, on the other hand, sat down on the ground in the P.E. sitting position[2] and became downhearted.
Seriously, this girlher efforts are always fruitless.
The next moment, when I went to cheer her up.
The sound of a huge explosion resounded from inside the cave.
Dowaaaa! Carolina-san!? What are you doing!?
Digging in a small area with the tool has poor efficiency, right? So destroying it all here in one go with my magic is the right way to go?
Even zoI wish you would stop hitting the wall with fireballz!
As expected, shes quite firm when ites to her hobby.
Sheryl forcibly seized the pickaxe from Carolina too and silently resumed working alone.
Ku. This is the first I have had such a humiliation!
Uu. Why only meeee.
Aphrodite and Carolina, who both received a warning from Sheryl, got along (?) and lined up in the P.E. sitting position.
[1] The author actually wrote (mosohan) instead of (monhan), the abbreviated form of Monster Hunter, but searching for mosohan didnt yield any results, so Im assuming they meant monhan

VS Mud Puppet
Then.
After working hard for 3 hours.
Oh. Youve gathered quite a bit, huh.
In conclusion, Sheryls prediction seemed to be correct.
There was a mountain of iron and copper ore in front of my eyes.
There was also some rough crude iron and copper ore, which couldnt be sold, in the middle, but couldnt you say we had the best result?
Souta-san. Could you please leave a portion of the middle of the ore we got today with me?
Mm. Thats fine, but what will you use it for?
Ummm. I will use it to make arms for the goblins, as requested before.
You can do that!?
Yes. If it is just this ore. Only the minimum facilities are inside the ball.
Ah! If its that, it would be very wee!
This is a happy miscalction.
Recing the goblins equipment has been resolved with a suitable cost.
If she can make the arms with the ore we mined, we could have massive savings.
Huh? Come to think of it, I cant see D anywhere.
Aphrodite-san ignored Masters opinion and is running on her own. It seems she somehow wants to achieve something on her own.
Is that so. That certainly is like her, but.
I wonder why?
I have a really bad feeling.
Gyabaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Speak of the devil.
A voice I was familiar with resounded from inside the cave.

What the? This dj vu.
I looked towards that voice, and there was Aphrodite being attacked by multiple monsters.
The Mud Puppet was a monster that, like its name suggested, appeared to be a doll made of mud.
Worth mentioning is that it had stic arms.
Aphrodite was caught by the Mud Puppets strong arms and suspended in the air, thus falling into a situation where her skirt was flipped up and her underwear waspletely visible.
I wont allow it! Release mypanion right now!
Good job!
That mud dollhas given me a wonderful arrangement, hasnt it?
Master?
This is bad.
While I was saying a cool line, my gaze being fixed on Aphrodites underwear was probably discovered.
Dont look!
Can you not look at me with such eyes!?
Ive thought this for a while, but doesnt Carolina react too sensitively to my ulterior motives?
W-well then. Lets concentrate on the match!
At any rate, victory goes to the one who moves first.
Because no matter what kind of monster the opponent is, if I use the Ball then I can enve them no questions asked.
I materialized the Capsule Ball and threw it at the Mud Puppet that was restraining Aphrodite.
Gyogi!?
The Capsule Ball gave of a brilliant light and the Mud Puppet was sucked in.
Yosh!
Got the first one!
Aphrodite, having been released from her restraints, fell to the ground with her legs still spread wide open.
Fugya!?
Aphrodite screamed dully.
By the way, her skirt flipped up and her panties werepletely exposed.
This girl must really want to show me her panties.
Carolinas gaze is scary so I wish she would be more moderate.
Giooooo!?
They were probably on alert since their ally received a mysterious attack.
The remaining two Mud Puppets turned their backs and ran away into the cave.
Dont let them escape!
Carolina immediately called out.
I felt the temperature inside the cave suddenly drop.
I wondered what happened and looked around. Carolina had trapped the Mud Puppets by encasing the ground in ice.
Now then. Master. Please put an end to these insolent monsters.
.
As I thought, Carolina is amazing!
Carolina who is too skilled.
Aphrodite who is only skilled in showing her panties.
In the fight this time, the difference between their abilities really showed itself, huh?
While thinking that, I captured the two remaining Mud Puppets.

Presenting the Fruits of Battle
Having returned to the Adventurers Guild, I submitted the minerals we had gathered to the evaluation window.
Thises out to 36,000 col for your quest reward.
Oufu.
It didnt grow rtive to having the goblins help gather a lot of ore, huh.
Thanks. Thank you very much.
As expexted of Souta-san. Your momentum hasnt slowed down even after getting promoted to F Rank. At this rate youll be promoted to E Rank very soon!
.
I was praised like so by Chloe-chan, but I was dissatisfied with the results this time.
36,000 col in this world is at the level of 40,000 yen in Japan.
Of course, I think its enough for a single reward?
But, the four of us are risking our lives.
10,000 yen a day was not at all suitable.
U~n.
The reward this time being less than I had anticipated was, after all, probably because the price was lower for copper and iron ore.
Next time we should aim for the rare and expensive ores like gold and silver.
After I received the reward, it was time for monsterbinations.
During the trip this time, I captured five Mud Puppets.
The possiblebinations that evolve were confirmed on the way back from the mine.
I had already decided beforehand which monsters I would use the Monster Combination skill on once I was back at the inn.

Why?
Because the sentence Has the capability to evolve to a stronger monster bybining with monsters of the same name is written in the monsters window.

Hm?
The Golem too says Has the potential to evolve into a stronger monster bybining with monsters of the same name .
In other words, this isnt the final evolution?
During tomorrows trip, Ill capture more of the base monster, Mud Puppets, and aim forbining Golems.

Date with the Goddess (First Part)
The next day.
I woke up early and headed to the center of Saint Bell.
Why?
Because today we were going shopping for the sake of getting the Soft and Fluffy Canopy Bed that Aphrodite demanded.
(Hey. D. Arent you ready yet?)
(Not yet! Not yet, so! If you peek, Ill kill you!)
(Yes, yes.)
It seemed that Aphrodite was currently changing from her Adventurers Clothes into a Dancers Bewitching Dress.
Dancers Bewitching Dress Rank E
(Womens clothing with many decorations)
This item was something that Aphrodite had wanted for a while, so I gave it to her as a present with yesterdays quest reward.
It was Aphrodites desire to change into her best clothes for the shopping trip.
(Im ready now.)
I received her approval through the Contact skill and summoned Aphrodite.
H-how is it?
Aphrodite asked with a somewhat nervous voice.
Wearing the Dancers Bewitching Dress, Aphrodite became sexier at some point.
I had thought that wearing the dress, with its high exposure and pink[1]design, would be difficult to wear, but.
What if I said that shes the goddess of beauty even if she is useless?
That seemed like it would be pointless in front of Aphrodite.
How is it, you ask its not that different from normal.
Haa? Wh-what do you mean normal!?
Having not received the answer she expected, Aphrodite puffed her cheeks discontentedly.[2]
What are angry about all of a sudden? You being pretty and cute is your normal!
~~~~!
The moment after I stated an objective reality.
Aphrodites cheeks suddenly reddened very rapidly.
That was fairly well done. Should I give it 70 points? Considering that it was you, that was quite an effective pick-up line. Ill give you praise.
Because I am the goddess of beauty, this time it passed calmly, butwouldnt that have been dangerous if it was a normal girl?
Yes, yes. I got it, I got it. Tedious talks[3]are good so lets quickly go choose a bed.
It seemed like she would talk for a while, so I grabbed her hand and took her towards the store.
I didnt want to deal with her farce.
With the next trip, I was aiming to get rare minerals no matter what and get rich quick.
My hand is~~! My hand is~~~!!?
Aphrodite let out a mysterious shout, but shes always entric so I didnt pay it any mind.

Wee. Wee to the Guild-recognized Magic Tool Shop.
When we entered the store, a male employee greeted us.
What is this?
I feel like Ive seen a performer like this somewhere on TV.
A person whose front teeth characteristically stood out.
What are you looking for today?
Umm. We are looking for a bed. The softest, fluffiest one.
I see. A bed. This shops beds are assembled with first-ss goods that use Angel Cotton, taken from the rare branches of the World Tree. Please, this way.
.
I entered farther into the magic tool shop while being led by the salesman.
Hey. Lookthat.
Ah, that. That is very popr.
Strange.
Since earlier, there seemed to be a painful gaze from our surroundings.
AhDamn iiiit!
A young coupleshamelessly choosing a bed in broad daylight!
When looked at from nearby, this is totally a lovey-dovey couple!
Whats wrong, Souta? Your face suddenly became pale.
Shit!
Have you not noticed this embarrassing situation!?
Seriouslyjust for today, Im jealous of your thick-headedness skill.
This one here is our shops rmended, highest-quality bed. When you sleep on this bed that freely uses the precious Angel Cottonit feels just like youve gone to heaven.
The bed rmended by Sunelika-san was certainly brimming with a high-ss design.
Let me see.
Ive got nothing to lose by checking the price.
Wha! 120,000!?
No way no way uh-uh uh-uh snail![5]
No matter how I struggle, right now this is a high-ss good that I cant get.
Absolutely no way. Out of the question.
Hey.
Aphrodite felt the high-ss bed in question and casually turned her head.
Wh-where is there something you arent satisfied with?
Do I have to exin from the beginning? Certainly he said that this bed uses Angel Cotton, butording to my diagnosis, about 30 percent of it uses it.
The remaining 70 percent uses Achille Down, right? You cant really say that Achille Down is a bad material, but this shop is good at fraud, huh?
Gu. Gugunu.
Perhaps what she just saidwas perfectly on the mark?
Aphrodite SUGEEE!!
You really know the other worlds beds well!
I feel like if that passion were somewhere a little different, my adventurers would be a little easier, but.

Date with the Goddess (Latter Part)
This shops goods are no good at all. Im not happy that the stated materials are different from the actual ones.
It seemed that there was nothing in the shop that caught Aphrodites eye.
Is this the right time?
I let the clerk know that we had decided to leave.
Im sorry. There is nothing here that were interested in, so well just.
Cu-customer! Please wait a moment!
Panicked, Snelika-san detained us at the exit.
What is it? Is there still something? Were not really free, you know?
Eh. I apologize for taking up your time. However, you have not yet seen our shops rmended bed, which we specially sent away for.
Do you not understand yet? I have lost interestnot in the goods, but in this shop.
Aphrodite raising her voice up until now was rare.
She was probably angry at the man who was trying to scam her about her hobby (?), beds.
Hmm.
It was Sheryl who knew all about ores.
Our female members get quite passionate about their hobbies.
I-is that so? Please excuse me. I had thought that the bed I introduced you to would be perfect for a couple such as yourselves, but.
Haha! Too bad!
We are not lovers!
Foolish man, not even knowing that.
This sales pitch should have killed Aphrodites interest, but.
C-coupleyou say!? I-if you say that much, I guess I can look just a little bit.
She was incredibly interested!?
I dont understand why, but Aphrodite ate up the phrase perfect for a couple.
Ehh. To tell the truth, this time we have mixed into our rmended bed the spores of the Mad Marsh. With thiseven herbivorous men[1]will be the same! When they see a woman, theyll transform into unparalleled wolves that indiscriminately jump at women!
I-I see. It certainly seems like that would happen.
Yes. And for the couple that is distant from their night life, this bed will show a tremendous result. And if you act now, you can purchase it with a loan payable in 100 installments.
When I looked at the bed the clerk was timidly promotingthe price was a shocking 1,500,000 marks!
Guha! Wasnt that a joke!
If I got this bed, wouldnt I end up in debt hell instantly!?
Trickery! You aretricking us!
The clerks promotion of a shitty product was quite clear.
Customer. I am currently discussing with this youngdy, so would please remain silent?
Thats right! Shut up, Souta! I am having a serious discussion with this person!
Gu!
I didnt understand the trick, but he got Aphrodite onto his side.
If that was the case, I didnt have time to pick my method.
D. Come here.
I used the Absolute Control of a monster breeder and hugged Aphrodite tightly.
Furthermore, as passionately as I could.
I hugged the goddess soft body as if I was lusting after her insatiably.
~~~~!
I was able to hear my heart pounding.
Even though it was me, I did that.
Before Aphrodites soft body, my heart was pounding like it never had before in my life.
C-customer? What in the world?
Snelika-san was dumbfounded at this situation.
Thats that.
Anyone would have that reaction if a man and woman shared a steaming embrace right in front of them.
Thats not necessary! We are lovey-dovey even without borrowing the power of such a suspicious item!
That was an embarrassing thing to say, even if I say so myself, but it was the only way out that situation.
If the other side was going to misunderstand that we were a couple, then I would make use of that.
I-is that so? I apologize. I will wait for you to return to this store.
He said as if to make the figure of the couple unashamedly flirting in public get away.
With that, the talented clerk Snelika-san no longer detained us.
Hmm.
I wonder if that was a little careless?
Even if I said that there werent any other options, when I think back on it, I feel that my actions had a high risk.
From now on, if we have something to do, I dont think we could enter that shop.
Sorry! Aphrodite! Please just bear with not having a soft and fluffy canopy bed for a little while longer.
Sure.
Was she shocked at suddenly being embraced by me?
For a while after we left the shop, Aphrodite distractedly tottered along behind me.
So a mans bodywas that hard.
After this there will just be time until we head out on our trip.
Aphrodite was repeatedly mumbling something to herself.

Mine Revenge
After we finished shopping, it was time for our expedition.
Going without a break yesterday, I headed to Ares Mine.
Fuhahahaha!
All you ores! Wait for me!
Today for sure well make a lot of money!
Fu-fufu~n M~y name i~s Aphrodite Pr-pr-pretty! Super cute! The goddess who everyone looks a~t
The one who brought down my motivation was Aphrodite.
Guhee.
Why thathopeless song.
Thanks to her singing in the cave, it echoed horribly and hurt our ears.
Aphrodite-san. What is it? That odd song.
It was natural for Carolina to be amazed.
After shopping with me, Aphrodite has had this kind of tension the whole time since.
Did she hit her head somewhere?
Nee. Caro. Have youever felt the joy of being loved by a man?
Aphrodite, getting carried away, announced that bombshell.
Y-you.
Why would you such a major thing at this time!?
In realityI guess Carolina probably had a lover.
Maybe not now, but in the past she probably had many.
I cant imagine the surrounding men neglecting a beauty like Carolina.
I dont know. For me, Maou-sagohon! That person, I have always loved one-sidedly.
Oshaaaaa!
If the existence of Carolinas loved one was revealed with this, couldnt she get back on her feet in short order?
But, who is the man Carolina has continued to think of for 300 years!?
Im too envious!
Pupu! You dont know then! Caro, youre making a face like you have no luck with men.
.
Having been agitated by Aphrodite, Carolinas veins in her temple popped out.
Because the mood between the two of them became dangerous for some reason, I attempted to change the topic.
Naa. Sheryl. Theres something I was wondering about.
Yes. What is it?
Today I was thinking for rare ores instead of copper and iron. Isnt there a good method for that?
Hmm. Its not impossible, butit would be difficult.
Why is that?
Because there are many adventurers like you who search for rare ores! The gold and silver ores have likely been depleted by those who came to look for them before.
Certainlyit makes sense if you put it that way.
People like me who could store an unlimited number of items were one thing, but there was a limit to the number of ores that normal adventurers could bring home.
Thinking about it, it was only natural that the rare ores would be hunted preferentially.
Yeah, but wait. On the other handif we go to the center of the mine that other people dont approach, there is a possibility we can monopolize the rare ores, right?
Exactly! But, because the road will be that much more dangerous if we go to the centerthe risk of a disaster will increase as well.
I see. Its troublesome, huh.
For me who could infinitely store items in the ball, it probably made more sense to follow the pattern of gathering a huge amount of cheap ores and selling them.
Im not worried about that.
The one who butted into our conversation was Carolina.
The terrain of this mine has already beenpletely investigated ording to the report of my underlings. Master, I can guide you to the middle area that you desire to see.
A single bat had perched on the shoulder of Carolina, who was calmly informing us.
Perhaps, Caro, do you understand bats!?
Yes. Yesterday I thought that this might happen, and I asked the bats in this cave to report on the terrain.
Ohh!
As expected of our partys aceshes always capable.
And in contrast, theres Aphrodite.
Ugyaaaaaaa! What is that! This bat is!? Go over theeeerrrre!
She was in a panic from the bat fluttering around her body.
Hey. Caro. Youre not controlling that bat, right?
Correct. That bat attacking Aphrodite-san is entirely coincidental.
.
I felt like the timing of that coincidence was quite arbitrary, but.
I felt that it would bring unnecessary trouble to dig any further, and that it would be better to just stay quiet.
Chapter 51
Trantor:Jason
The Smell of Treasure
Carolinas support was sessful.
Our exploration of the mine continued to go well.
The appearance of Mud Puppets increased as we continued to the center.
This was a ce where normal adventurers would give up, but I had the one-hit Capsule Ball skill.
In particr, the Mud Puppets were essential for making Golems, so I was capturing them all without leaving even one behind.
S-souta-san! Stop!
When we had walked for a little while, Sheryl called out excitedly.
Hm. What is it, so suddenly?
Inside this wall is the smell of precious orez!
Wh-what!?
Furthermore, many of them! Its the first time I too have seen a ce with such an abundance of orez!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Has the timee for my dream to be fulfilled!?
I never thought that we would get results so quickly!
Fufufu. It seems my turn hase! Watch closely my mining technique!
The one who jumped at this moment faster than anyone else was Aphrodite.
Aphrodite took the pickaxe in hand and took a big swing at the wall.
GodAttaaack!
A sharp metallic sound echoed in the cavern.
But.
Even though she hit it with all her might, there wasnt even a scratch on the wall.
Gyaaaaaaaa! My handmy hand is nuuuuuumb!?
Having received an unexpected recoil, Aphrodite was writhing on the ground and her hand was inmed and swollen.
Master. It seems that this areahas be exceptionally hard. I believe it would be ill-advised to dig with something like a pickaxe.
Carolina announced while cing her hand on the wall Aphrodite had attacked.
I see.
Its natural when you think about it.
To say it another way, the ores that hadnt been mined by adventurers up until now were protected by this unique region that was unyielding to a pickaxe.
What should we do? I think my magic can damage it sufficiently.
No. Thats not necessary. Ill use this guy for this mining operation.
Fufufu.
I had a monster prepared just for this kind of manualbor.
Gugogugo.
The Golem? As expected of Master. Certainly, if its this monster, it can probably break through the wall.
Its total height was about 10 meters.[i]
That body was so huge it seemed as if it would go into the ceiling.
(Golem! Face this wall and punch!)
At mymand, the Golem very slowly raised its arm overhead.
The Golems punch, which carried its own weight, unmistakably hid the strongest power out of all my monsters.
Zugogogogon!
A thunderous sound resounded throughout the cave.
This is!?
I was at a loss for words when I looked into the hold the Golem made.
From here on outwe couldnt help but sense treasure.
Inside wasnt the rare ores that Sheryl had mentioned.
There was a hidden staircase that continued deep into the mine.
Its the release day of Other Worlds Monster Breeder!!
Kabocha-sans high-quality illustrations are amazing!
Please take care of me with the published version as well.
Chapter 52
Trantor:Jason
The Guardian of the Treasure
After discovering the secret staircase inside the wall, I returned the Golem to the ball and headed underground.
Master. Please watch your step.
Ah. Thanks.
Carolina, who had the best physical ability of our party, took the lead.
The staircase was made perhaps 100 years agoor maybe it was even more ancient than that.
The staircase, made of stone, seemed like it was going to crumble even now.
How fardoes this staircase go?
The smell of ore is rapidly getting closer. Well reach it soon.
Sheryl, who was walking behind me, answered while sniffing her nose.
After walking for a little bit, we arrived at an open space, just like Sheryl said.
Silver Ore @ Rank D
(Ore with a lot of silver)
Gold Ore @ Rank C
(Stone with a lot of gold)
tinum Ore @ Rank B
(Stone with a lot of tinum)
Ohhhh!
Immediately after, spread before our eyes was a mountain of precious ores on top of a box!
Im not mistaken. Thats actually tinum ore!
Sheryl announced excitedly, while creeping her tongue out towards the ores.
Amazing! If all the ore in this room is real, it wouldnt be worth less than 400 million col!
400 million!?
Hold on!
If I convert 400 million Adelheid col into Japanese yenthat would be worth 440 million yen!?[i]
What is this?
This was so far outside my sense of reality that I didnt really know how to react.
Gyaaaaaaaa! Wh-what is this!?
Suddenly Aphrodites scream sounded from inside the room.
A mysterious white mass was scattered at her feet.
These arehuman bones?
They were old and their shapes had crumbled, but part of the skull was still distinct.
It seems like the miners used this ce to store treasure hundreds of years ago.
How do you know that?
I will answer presumptuously. It is currently opened by the adventurers, butAres Mine used to be managed by the country.
Therefore, naturally, all the ores mined here are stored in the national treasury, butone miner probably embezzled some ores and hid them here.
I see.
Certainly, the bones were spread unnaturally on the ground.
Perhaps the person whose bones were lying around was the only one who knew about this rooms existence.
And maybe they were attacked by a monster while hiding the ores?
I could agree that this room was probably abandoned for a long time.
Yosh. Shall we collect the ores right away?
Well, even if I worried about things long past, there was nothing I could do about it.
Because the important thing is the fact that weve encountered a chance to get rich quick!
Right after I went to put the tinum ores in the ball.
My vision suddenly wavered.
Wh-what!?
With azugogogogo!sound, the ground split in two and gigantic stone rose up from the middle.
No, thats wrong.
The thing in front of my eyes was absolutely not a normal stone.

VS Iron Golem
Gugooooooooooo!
The first thing the Iron Golem did upon appearing in front of us was a let out an ear-shattering roar.
Master! Be careful! This monster seems to be angry at having its slumber disturbed!
Ah. Got it!
This hidden room, which was made to hide the embezzled ores, was probably a veryfortable ce for the golems slumber.
Even though we finally found the treasure, it seemed that we wouldnt be able to return with it easily.
Take this! One-hit KO!
However.
For me, this pinchwas a chance to capture a strong monster!
As long as I hit it with the Capsule Ball, it didnt matter how strong the opponent was.
What!?
Just now, the ball clearly hit it, right!?
Why couldnt it be captured!?
Gugoooooooooo!
I see. I understand!
It was blocked by the mud covering its body!
For many yearsno, for many decades, it has been sleeping in the ground.
The Iron Golems body has perfected a wonderful Mud Armor.
If this was a normal battle, you probably wouldnt even notice the Mud Armor that has no defensive capability.
But to me, for whom the essential point was throwing the ball and making contact, this was the most troublesome thing.
Next was the Iron Golems attack.
It swung down its human-sized fist at me.
Dowa!
Its movement wasnt too fast, but its power was incredible.
The ground I had been standing on was hollowed out as if a bomb fell on it.
Fufufu! This seems like a life-or-death situation. Leave it to me now!
Aphrodite gantly ran out in front of me, stuck out her chest, and stood in front of the Iron Golem.
Hey! Its dangerous, get down!
Theres no use worrying. Did you forget about my status? Even though my status fell when I came down to earth, my vitality alone is the same as it originally was!
If you say that, it makes sense!
If its Aphrodite, whose vitality exceeds 20,000, she could probably withstand the Iron Golems attacks.
Now! Come at me! Golem-chfugya!
The Iron Golem made use of itsrge body and squashed Aphrodite.
Fufufu. You did well! But in order to defeat me, the goddess of love and beauty, your body is too small.
A-amazing! She really is unhurt!
Sorry. Aphrodite!
Up until just now, I had thought you were totally ipetent.
At this momentIpletely revised my opinion of you!
Now! Caro!
Geezsomeone like you.
Following Aphrodites gaze, there was the figure of Carolina floating in the air with two wings sprouting from her back.
Water Storm!
After Carolina chanted the spell.
The Iron Golems body was covered in a mass of water.
I see! Youre washing away the mud with water!
Carolinas water magic didnt give any direct damage to the Iron Golem, but washing off the Mud Armor hid sufficient power.
Now! Master!
Alright! This time for sure!
I wasnt going to render Aphrodite and Carolinas support waste.
The second ball I threw splendidly hit the Iron Golems body.
It seemed that this time I sessfully captured the monster without a hitch.
The Capsule Ball let out a bright light and sucked in the Iron Golemsrge body.
Geezthis whole expedition was me getting saved by my allies.
And thus I sessfully returned with an incredibly strong monster.

Forest Experiment
I returned to the Adventurers Guild and promptly submitted the ores I had gathered today to the Guilds assessment window.
Since I couldnt take them directly out of the ball, I borrowed a cart and took them inside.
Oi oi. Whatis that?
Wait a moment. Loaded up over there issilver ore!? No, isnt there gold ore too!?
Hmm.
As expected, with just this much ore, it was impossible to avoid gathering attention.
I personally didnt want to do things that stood out, but in this case there was nothing I could do.
I apologize. Even though Souta-san brought these oreswe dont have a set purchase price for them.
2 hours after that.
Chloe-chan said something unexpected to me, who had been waiting at the reception counter.
Yes? Umm, that meansthese ores I brought arent worth even 1 col?
N-not at all! Rather, its the opposite. The ores that Souta-san brought are too expensive, so we couldnt decide on a good price to purchase them!
Ah.
It was a situation where I was worried about their decision, about whether to be happy or sad.
Like Sheryl said, the value of the ores that I brought was estimated at over 400 million col.
As I expected, it was impossible for the guild to suddenly pay out such a sum.
Thanks to Souta-san[1], our guilds assessment division has fallen into the biggest panic theyve ever had. Since tinum ore in particr is a rare item that is hard toe byit seems theyre worried that the economy may copse at this rate.
Guha!
So the ores I brought back had so much value!
I understand why the guild was in such an uproar.
As such, the guild would like a little more time for assessment. If it is alright with Souta-san, may we have more time?
How much more time would you need?
Hmm. Based on what I heard, we should be able to reach a conclusion within one week.
In that case, please go ahead.
If even an establishment like the guild fell into such a panicI couldnt imagine that there was a shop that could buy them at an appropriate price.
Its too bad that we couldnt get cash, but lets wait here patiently.
Having finished the procedures at the guild, I was in the forest outside of Saint Bell.
This forest was a ce I had had my eye on as a space tobine monsters and verify skills.
We ended up giving all the ores that we brought to the guilds assessment division, butI guess it was actually a good thing?
Yes. Gold and silver ores are not suited for weaponz. The ores I want are a bit different.
I see. Its difficult.
I had nned to get the tough and malleable ores necessary for creating weapons that Sheryl had requested during this expedition, but we didnt get anything good.
(SummonIron Golem)
And so today, I summoned the Iron Golem I just caught.
Ohh. It really is huge.
I was shocked by the Iron Golems size when I looked at it.
The Iron Golemsrge body, the head of which stuck out above the surrounding trees, was the highlight of the whole thing.
While I was at it, I finished my preparations by summoning two Golems that I had made bybining multiple Mud Puppets.
Souta. What are you doing with these summoned Golems?
Well. Just wait and see.

Date with Carolina (First Part)
The day after we got therge quantity of ore from the mine.
I got up early in the morning and went to Saint Bells town center.
Today I was going shopping with Carolina for the sake of finding a library with ancient books from the whole country, which she wanted.
(Caro. Are you ready?)
(Yes. I am ready at any time.)
Having received confirmation, I entered a back alley out of sight and summoned Carolina.
Ohh. For shopping too, its the usual maid outfit for you, huh?
Yes. Would it have been better if I changed my outfit like Aphrodite?
I was able to catch a glimpse of the rare uneasy Carolina, who was gripping the hem of her skirt.
No. I think Caro looks good with the usual maid outfit. It really suits youI like it. Your maid appearance.
!
Oy! Are you okay!?
Carolina seemed like she was going to aimlessly fall on the ground, so I quickly caught her.
I-I apologize. I was so happy at what you said MasterI was a little giddy.
I-I see. Be careful.
Just how much of that was true?
Carolina asionally made jokes like that, so it was hard to deal with her.
Sure, I saved her life, but even so it feels like she is excessively loyal.
Carolina was dangerous in the sense that it seemed like she would do anything I asked.
Caro, you take my words a little too seriously.
Is that so?
Yeah. I cant say it well, butfor example, if I said Show me your panties, you would probably actually show them to me.
Yes. If Master so desired, I would show you everything.
Carolina informed me briefly, and then, blushing, rolled up her skirt.
Ohhhhhh!
She was wearing stockings!
Her panties were white.
The contrast with the ck stockings was incredible.
Was this Arcadia?[1]
It was the aesthetic of white underwear from underneath a raised skirt.
If possible, I would like to obtain citizenship inside of a skirt.
Ah! What are you doing!?
I apologize. Did I show you something unsightly? I surely thought thatMaster desired to see inside my skirt, but.
No. Thats right, butthats not it!
I decidedthat I was happy about having seen Caros panties.
But.
There is the person whom Caro has had an unrequited love for for 300 years already.
Even if I got to see her panties as her lifes saviormy conscience was pained.
I do not understand wellwhat Master is thinking.
When I honestly conveyed my thoughts, Carolina had a dubious expression on her face.
Chapter 56
Date with Carolina (Conclusion)
Carolina and I went to the bookstore of Saint bell together.
Across the Adventurers guild and built at a ce opposed to the previously visited magic tool shop was this shop that seems to be the number onergest bookstore within Saint Bell.
Sex: Male
Age: 28
Hello there. Wee to the Guild Licensed Magic Bookstore. (TL: What was this tranted as before?)
When we set foot inside the store, a male shop assistant greet us.
The big front tooth protruding from his mouth was how this person was characterized.
Oh.
If I remember correctly.Ive seen him somewhere..
Excuse me.. Its an abrupt query. But is the shop assistant of the magic tool store possibly an acquaintance of yours?
Oh! Do you know my elder brother? Yes. Sunrika is my elder brother. We brothers both work as merchants.
I have a bad feeling.
The store clerk of the Magic Tool store Sunrika-san Its bad to say, but he was really untrustworthy.
I had a terrible experience that day as I was made to purchase a product at a price not much different from fraud.
Uhh. Ive heard that this store has taken in an unusual magic book
Hou You want a magic book.
When I spoke the words Magic Book, Iserika appears to be appraising my appearance.
Is this customer an adventurer? Im sorry but the magic books in the store have extraordinarily high prices Its not possible to show them tomon people.
I-is that the case?
Thinking about it a little, but it wont be possible if there were such circumstances.
If there was a rare magic book, I expected that Carolina may have been satisfied.
Human. To whom do you think are you opening your mouth to. dont get too familiar.
Hiiii!?
A dreadful thirst for blood after a seemingly prickling pain in the skin was felt and before anyone could notice, Carolina had already pointed a knife towards Iserika-sans neck.
Caro!? What in the world are you doing!?
This discourtesy.. This man said a rude thing to master, so I thought to cut off his tongue.
.
Carolina said it as though she felt it was only natural.
T-this,
Speaking seriously, Carolinas loyalty is at an abnormal level.
Caro. Withdraw.
Understood. If that is what master wishes
Thats unexpected!
Even if I were to make an unreasonable request, would she obedientlyply?
However, it has be unpleasant.
I know that Carolina holds excessive loyalty due to fact I saved her life. But I dont think I can get another person to understand with that exnation.
S-sorry. Our family maid recently has been experiencing chuuni disease.
.
U~~n.
Even I think making such an excuse is unreasonable?
Iserika-san was dumbfounded at first, but his face is gradually turning red.
Ugu-. How rude of a customer!
I-isnt it~.
This time it ispletely our fault.
Anybody would get angry if two strangers thrust at them with a knife.
I was originally to hand you over to the Kingdoms order of knights but There reputation of the store falls if its understood that violence urred. Get out. Ill overlook it if you promise never to step foot in this store again.
Leaving only those words, Iserika-san retired back into the inner parts of the store.
We only came to buy a book
Why did it be such a bloody development?
Being driven out from Iserika-sans store, we went to Saint Bells second biggest book store.
U~n. As expected of the second biggest store, the variety of books is remarkably decreased
The new store we visited, although it was cozy but could not bepared with Iserika-sans magic book store.
Theres no problem. Because quantity is not quality. I wont go to a store where an insolent fellow mocks master.
I see Then its fine. If there any good books, say so. I will buy them all together when i get the money
Understood.
.
Giving a short reply, Carolina turned her eyes to the books of the store and scanned wholeheartedly.
The contents are herbalism Medicinal Book and simr things which are hard for me to understand.
As Carolina returned the book in her hand to the store, she let out a sigh.
(Is this the degree to which a human writes about this books subject after all.? I did not expect much from the beginning yetIn these past 100 years humans standards of writing have declined here.)
Her hearts voice leaks how her dissatisfaction has piled up.
Since I acquired the contact skill, asionally I am able to catch the contracted persons hearts voice in this manner.
Are the books at this store unsatisfactory?
Ah! No! Such a thing!?
When I spoke, Carolina became flustered.
Say it honestly.
..I give up. Master can see through anything. Its certainly true that the level of books in this store is low.
Because our demon race is a long-lived one When the contents do not discuss a more technical section, I cannot be satisfied.
I understand. Ill look for a suitable book again at another opportunity. Lets go and visit other towns soon to look.
..No?! But?! To go that far for something like my hobby?
Nonono. What are you saying? Carolina has always taken care of me. This much effort is not a problem.
.Hau-
Hey! Are you alright?
Carolina unexpedly almost fell onto the ground, so I quickly caught her in my arms.
Im sorry. Masters words made me happy and I became dizzy For me, just those words are enough.
The expression of Carolina who was being supported by my body, seemed to be happy.
Chapter 57
Urgent Quest
With the crystal collection quest, it was good that we were able to make a quick dor but itll take a while to exchange it for money so until then well still need to earn money daily.
Due to such circumstances, I went to visit the adventurers guild.
Hey. An outrageous request hase.
.You. Will you receive it?
Is that a joke? Even if arge sum of money is acquired, Ill decline.
Approaching the adventurers guild, a puzzling crowd was before the bulletin board.
I wonder if its my imagination?
Wasnt there a simr feeling in the past?
I push through the crowd to try and confirm the contents of the bulletin board.
Then, there.
Urgent Quest
Subjugate the Wraith.
Required Ranking: G
Sess Condition: Subdue the Wraiththat appeared in Saintbells graveyard.
Reward: 10 millions cols
Repeatable: No
The topic of those men seems to have been the newly added request Subjugation of the Wraith.
The reward amount is an astonishing ten million col!
Thinking of the previous Cockatrice subjugation quest of 3 million col, its an abnormal reward.
Excuse me. Its about the newly added wraith subdual quest but.. Can you tell me about it in detail?
Yes. This times subjugation target, the wraith, is a so called demon and thus holds a high degree of danger.
We somehow received a report that a wraith settled down in Saintbells graveyard and thus we put out a subjugation request,
I see. I understand.
Wraith Wraith huh
ording to the knowledge Ive umted in games, its an image of a so-called boss-ss monster in the undead system.
Because the reward price is extremely overwhelming, it seems it will be very difficult to deal with.
Souta! Have you decided whether or not to receive the wraith extermination quest?
Huuuuuuh!? Why! Saying such a cowardly thing! Thepletion bonus is 10 million cols!? Isnt it a chance to get rich quick?!
Didnt you hear the story before? Risk and return is set like this. Even if we leave it for two weeks, well be richter on. Its necessary not to overdo it, isnt it?
Ee~. Certainly being said. You could say that though.
As the difficulty of the request is high, it will be better to strengthen my war potential carefully.
Master. Though its a presumptuous request.. Could you entrust everything to me?
The one who chimed in like that in the middle of this flow of the conversation was, surprisingly, Caroline.
please exin what you mean?
Okay. We demons, since being defeated by the humans, are tied to a rule of avoiding interference to the best of our ability.
If there are such circumstances, I want to respect Carolinas intentions.
The reason is because Im always being helped by Carolina.
Alright. I understand. If thats the case, Ill permit it
Its alright?
Ahh. But there is one condition. I cant let Carolina go to a dangerous ce alone. When you go the graveyard, Ill go with you as well.
Thank you very much. Master, this favour, one day Ill certainly.!!
Carolina, who had received my proposal, somehow her gaze became absentminded.
Chapter 58
Undead Extermination
It seems like the wraith which appears in Saintbells graveyard appears only during the time the sunsets.
Thats why we decided to leave for the ce after killing time in the inn until it was night.
So-Souta-san. Itz scary. I will go back after all.
Sheryls body, after she came behind me and grabbed my sleeve, seems to be shaking.
We have not reached the graveyard but she was already acting terribly scared.
Fufufu. Sheryl-chan is the type to be afraid of ghosts, huh?
Aphrodite-san isnt afraid?
Naturally. How many times to I have to say Im a goddess! If a ghost appears in front of me, Ill use the holy attribute which they are weak against and purify them!
Oooh~. As expected of Aphrodite-san! Its reassuring when you have one of the 12 gods of olympus as your friend!
Its good that Sheryls mood was lifted.
While making a sound with her breath, Aphrodite sticks out her big chest.
Ehhh. Sheryl-chan! Whatever happens Ill show how I protect you!
Ill depend on you! Honestly speaking az Im. bad with zcary things, Im zaved.
What.
Its bad, but the words of Aphrodite just then seem to have raised a g.
Saying such a thingwhen we reach the graveyard, youre not going to say as I though, Im scared after all!, right?
Haaaa!? Wait a minute, Souta! I cannot overlook those words right now!
Too close, too close!
As always, youre face is too close!
Dont you think you should be more aware of your level as a beautiful girl?
Why would a divine being like me be scared of something like an undead? I demand you withdraw what you said!
Is that so? My bad.
It might be due to my habits from my past life that I am doubting myrade.
Since the person herself is saying so, this time lets believe what Aphrodites saying.
Then thirty minutester.
A scene which didnt betray my expectations urred.
Wait a minute Sheryl-chan! A-arent you walking a bit too fast?
Uuu.. Aphrodite-san. Becauze I am scared too.. I want you to walk in the front.
My predictions were so urate that on the contrary, i was surprised.
Aphrodite who is walking behind is clinging to Sheryls back with no sign of leaving it.
As expected, using Sheryl as a shield isnt a good thing
Just a minute. Souta! Dont go by yourself! Are you thinking about leaving me?!
A~! I understand, so dont cling to me so much!
Soft.
The frightened Aphrodite was clinging so close to me that I got nervous in another way.
Just wait in the ball if youre scared. If your strength is necessary, Ill summon you.
Y-youre misunderstanding!? Im not scared! Its just if I enter the ball alone, Ill feel anxious by myself!
Uuu. In the caze of myzelf id rather. Being left in the ball alone would be zcary..
I, I see.
It seems like both of them have a reason not to return to the ball.
I feel that I need to follow Aphrodites example, if only for the fact that she is so unreasonably stubborn that she wont even try and admit to her faults after all this time.
Master. Be careful. There;s something in the thicket over there.
!?
I hear a rustle from the bush and grass when I looked in the direction which Carolina pointed at.
Then, immediately afterwards.
An unidentified creatures crossed towards us from the shade of the grass.

Hyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Go awaaaaaaaay! x2
Thank you for reacting as I expected!
At the sight of the unknown monster, Aphrodite and Sheryl screamed and nestled their bodies together.
As leaving them be is dangerous, lets put those two people back in the ball.
What this fellow?
Is it something like Blue me floating in the air if I tried to exin the creature in words?
It is a strange appearance that does not resemble any monsters that I have met until now.
Master! Attack iing!
Immediately after Carolinas warning.
The hitodama (human souls) floating in the air emit me balls approximately thirty centimetres in diameter all at once.
(Summon. Adamantite Golem!)
Without dy, I summoned the adamantite golem as a guard.
Hmm-?
The heck is this.. Whats happening?
Although the enemys attack was stopped by the adamantite golemsrge frame, [the] hitodama, despite that, continued to simply fire fireball after fireball.
Somehow, the picture of the dull smallfry enemies of action gameses to mind.
Fire Attribute Attack Magic | Rank A | Passive
(Skill which nullifies damage by fire.)
Even if the enemy attacks the adamantite golem, the hitodamas fire attribute skill will bepletely nullified.
it seems these monsters are the subordinates of the wraith, huh? The reason theyre not attacking us is probably.. The order they were given is something like remove any person who gets near you.
I see. Was there such a thing?
While the goblin corps Ive enved would surely follow any order I give, its not flexible at all.
Without using the right order, the actions would be stupid.
Master
Ah. I understand.
Fufufu.
Now is the time of best opportunity, when the opponent is unable to attack.
Ill make a huge haul!
.no. Wait a sec.
In the first ce, can the skill I hold Absolute Domination make it that I can enve a monster which is employed/enved by another person?
In the world of a game, its an act which is taboo (forbidden).
Take this! Knockout blow!
Well, rather than thinking about such a thing, trying to see the result will be quicker.
I decided to throw a capsule ball towards the hitodama (Human Soul) as a trial.
Inspecting the result.
Somehow or another, it seems I can enve them without a problem.
The capsule ball which made a contact judgement emits a dazzling light and then takes in the body of the hitodama (human soul)
Its a bitte to think it now but the ability of [Absolute Rule] is really a cheat

After I seeded in catching the hitodama, advanced into the graveyard carefully to look for the wraith.
I continue to capture the hitodama Ie across on the way expecting to use them as synthesising materials.
Kekeke. You bastard? You have defeated myselfs followers?
Hmm?
Wait a minute.
Didnt I just hear a girls voice!?
I hurriedly attempt to look around.
Strange.
I thought I definitely heard something, but there are only gravestones that are lined up which arent particrly suspicious.
Where are you looking? Myself is right here! Yuko is here.
I can hear the voice clearer this time than before.
Turning towards the direction of the voice, I immediately raised my eyes.
Woah!
It is flying!?

This is bad!
I can agree with the high reward that the guild has given.
The demon called a wraith that we were searching for seems to have a terribly highbat ability.
Take this! Making the first move leads to victory!
However.
Even if Im startled because of the opponents status, theres no problem.
Even if the opponent is a God, I have been given the ability to decide everything with the single throw of a ball.
mm.. What? The attack?
The moment after I threw the ball.
Something I didnt expect at all happened.
It went through it!?
P-perhaps, by any chancethis fellows insubstantial!?
I cannot get a contact judgement if there is no substance.
In other words, I cannot hit her with a capsule ball.
It-its over.
Since its like this, theres nothing I can do.
It seems that the demon Wraith Is the worst opponent for me.
Well then. Its myselfs turn to attack
The wraith looked down at me from above if you look carefully, she has attractive features and looks very young.
Its as if you could feel the refinement thates from her Demon heritage through her ringlet curls.
If we werent in this kind of situation, I would have loved to engage in pleasant conversation her!
Uuum. Calm down! If we discuss.. We can surely understand each other!
Poor Adventurer. Myself had abandoned the thing called feelings long in the past Yourbegging for your life, I am unable to respond.
Ugh-!
This wraith looks down on people as though they are garbage!
Farewell. Adventurer. Youll join the dead who walk around the bottom of hell!
The moment after the wraith dered as such.
My view was covered with mes.
Somehow or other, with over 1000 magic stat, receiving this attack does not look good.
Ah, dangerous.
As one would expect, this will kill you..
If a beautiful girl kills you, even if you say its a wraith, it will still end with satisfaction.
Immediately following me closing my eyes, having abandoned attachment to life.
One girl urgently ran before the mes.
Master. Please withdraw.

VS WRAITH 2
The me magic that the wraith sent out wraps around Carolinas body.
Her body is hot.
The temperature which was chilly just a moment ago has risen immediately.
What the heck was with Carolinas form just a bit ago?
Just before, she was wrapped in mes.
The status rose so much it could not bepared to what it was before.
Fufu. Yuuko. It appears you have raised your ability a little bit!
Carolina emerges from the me disys a smile whilst being unhurt.
No.
It seems as though it cant be said that she ispletely unhurt.
The Ranger Suit which I bought for Carolina has been burnt here and there The cloth covering her has decreased.
Ah, aaaah, aah..
What the heck is this?
As soon as Carolinas form could be seen by Yuuko, she began chattering, and herplexion turned pale.
You were saying I abandoned my feelings, just before But.. Were those words lies?
After encountering Carolina, Yuukos entire body seems to be expressing the feeling of fear.
H-head maid..! W-why are you in such a ce?
Eh? Head maid?
Perhaps, could Yuuko and Carolina be acquaintances?
Yuuko. Youve be remarkable. Indeed, never did I think the day woulde when you would confront me.
T-thats absurd! I have not in the slightest bit of hostility towards Carolina-sama-
Yuuko.
Yes.
Youre getting carried away?
T-this impoliteness, I apologise for it.
Having received Carolinas identity, Yuuko went down to the ground and prostrated herself at an incredible speed.
Yuuko. Dont apologise to me. Please turn to my master, Souta-sama.
Carolina warned Yuuko who has eyes the colour of despair.
Why..? Why is it that myself gets such treatment!? To lower ones head to a human Is it not the highest form of humiliation for a demon..! To begin with, myself only offered my loyalty to Iblis-sama
Yuuko.
Yes.
You dont need to ask unnecessary things. Would you like to be killed?
T-thats too much!
Carolina red at Yuuko who was tearing up.
Her expression seems as though she thinks she will seriously be killed in the next second.
A-adventurer! This time I apologise for unintentionally having a rude argument with an acquaintance of Carolina-sama.
Having be terrified and fearful, while she kneels and puts her head on the ground in dogeza, her body is shaking and slightly trembling.
My apologies. The cause of the disturbance seems to be my old work friend, somehow.
Is that so?
A colleague from the past..A colleague from the past..
Uuuuuh. Whats this?
Was there someone I knew who would raise demons I wonder.
Therefore, this is a suggestion Can you leave dealing with her to me? Wont the problem be solved if I persuade her to never again be bad to humans?
I understand, however Violent behaviour is no good?
Certainly.
Originally, the quest this time was for the subjugation of the Wraith; However, I cannot kill it if its a friend of Carolina.
Its the best to have Carolina settle herrades misconduct.
Yuuko.
Yes-
This misbehaviour Its going to be forgiven on the condition that you will never attack any more humans. This is thanks to the Souta-samas deep ocean of benevolence. Thank him.
As youmand~~ noja!
Though she may still be sprawled on the floor like that, Yuuko patted her chest in relief.
However, the fact that my master has forgiven you is different to me forgiving you.
Umm. What does that?
The crime for burning the important clothes which I received from my master is massive. Yuuko. Are you prepared?
Yuuko who received bloodlust from Carolina turned her back and flies into the sky.
Dont run away!
However.
Carolina with her wings out had a flying speed overwhelmingly fasterpared to Yuukos.
When Yuuko who escaped to the sky was caught quickly, Carolina pulls her back down to the ground.
Nevertheless, it is still strange.
A capsule ball went through Yuukos body as it was insubstantial, yet Carolinas offensive attacks seem to connect properly.
Perhaps it is because they are both that they are both demons that she can intervene physically?
Higgiiiiiiii! Carolina-sama Please be merciful..!
Yuuko implored her desperately, but Carolinas expression was expressionless without a hint of care.
Now then. Yuuko. Now you will suffer punishment for burning the important clothes which I received from my master.
When Carolina dered as such, she forcefully lowered the pants which Yuuko was wearing.
Yuuko who had had her pants lowered was showing her light blue panties, showed her pretty ass to us.
Now then. I will now hit your buttocks 100 times. Run away and.. Every time you resist, another 100 times will be added so engrave this in your heart, please.
Please Be merciful
ONE!
Hyuu~!
TWO!
Gyaaa~!
However.
Carolinas rear-end hitting continued until 100 times had been met ording to her deration.
Even so, what kind of person is Carolina?
Mental age asides, Yuukos status is a number usually not achievable you know?
Even still, Carolina who defeated her like wrestling a baby has abilities which are still unknown.
The incident this time has once again instilled in me a feeling that the mystery of Carolina is getting deeper and deepe

Fu~n. So, in the end, we let that wraith, Yuuko, escape?
Yeah. I wont be able to receivepensation from the guild, but the problem was resolved, so isnt fine?
On my way home.
I exined what happened this time to Aphrodite and Sheryl.
Now, Carolina. What iz your rtionship with the wraith, Yuuko?
Nice one! Sheryl!
She directly asked the question I really wanted to hear.
Actually, it was difficult to ask, since I had seen what happened myself.
I spoke with you Master, but Yuuko was my coworker where I worked long ago. I worked as a maid, and Yuuko took of the odd jobs at the end of the day.
Fu~n. I wondered what kind of demon it was, butthat girl, Yuuko, is not a big deal. Thest shift worker used by the maidsthere is no lower position amongst the low-level demons.
Nono!
You may not know because you didnt see it, but I cant believe that Yuukos status was as low-level of a demon as Aphrodite said.
Theres no way that Yuuko is weak.
That ce where Carolina worked must have been full of abnormally strong people.

There is no reason to not make thisbination!

The moment after I pressed the Yes button in the message.
The wolf and hitodama in front of me were wrapped in a pale light.
Immediately after that.
A red-furred fox appeared from the light.
Kon[2]! Ko~n!
Wh-what is this!?
Compared to the outward cool appearance of the wolf, the kitsunebi is the inner cute appearance.
A kitsunebi, huh? This is a good monster to get your hands on.
Is that so?
Yes. It is popr as a familiar demon because of its rare ability to use two types of magic as a low-level race of demon.
Oh
It was the right decision to evolve the wolf, after all.
It got Carolinas approval.
Uoooooooo! How cute! Its zo fluffy~!
Apparently, I wasnt the only one whose tension rose at the sight of this new monster.
Girls really do like cute animals, huh?
Sheryls appearance looking at the kitsunebi was the same as when she looked at her beloved ores.
Souta-zan! I wish for you to leave thiz childs care to me! If therez such a cute child there, thenI can wait in the ball for any length of time!
I got it. In that case, I ask you to take care of it, Sheryl.
Unlike a certain goddess, I can safely leave it to Sheryl.
It was pleasant feeling to watch her hugging the kitsunebi.
Dee? Are you sick? Youve been quiet for a while now.
B-but.I dont like it. Even though the prettiest and cutest in the world is Aphrodite-chan.
Youhow do youpete with animals?
As expected of the goddess of beauty.
Contrary to her appearance, her pride (?) is remarkable.
Now, shall Ibine the three remaining wolves?
There are three each left of the wolves and hitodamas needed to create a kitsunebi.
If I keep this up, Ill get my hands on four kitsunebi.

Wolf x hitodama (5% chance of rare evolution).
A medium-ranked monster of the Spirit Beast race.

Their fur is the highest quality material for trading.

What is thisossan[3]-like creature!?
If the kitsunebis appearance is tradionally cute, then the kedamalos is the so-called cute and ugly appearance.
Its body is excessively stout. And its whole body is covered in thick fur.
Unexpectedly, its eyes are excessively round and adorable, it really exhibits gap moe[4].
Rare evolution?
So theres also this kind of random element.
Arent there probably other monsters than the kedamalo that have rare evolutions?
Perhaps it just hasnt seeded until now, but there were other chances.
This monsteris not one I have seen before.
Eh. Even Caro doesnt know it?
Yeah. It is embarrassing, but. In over 300 years of living, this is the first time I have met this kind of monster. I dare say they are already extinctI believe it is a rare species that exists only in this world.
Is that so.
Well, now.
Whats up with this?
Its nice that I got a rare monster, but
Frankly, I dont know how to use this monster.
Its not blessed with the skills of the kitsunebi, nor do I think it can move quickly like the wolf.
It has a high vitality so I might be able to use it as a meat shield, butthe adamite golem is sufficient for the role of defense.
A-amazing! This springy texture and soft fur. Perhapsif its this child!?
Contrary to myself, whose tension lowered with this unexpected rare evolution, Aphrodites voice was excited.
H-hey. Souta! Couldnt you tell this child toy on the ground like its sleeping?
Sure. Thats fine, but.
What in the world are you thinking about?
After I ordered the kedamalo toy on the ground.
Aphrodite began rolling around on its stomach.
Th-this is it! This sticity! This is exactly what I have been searching forthe ideal bed!
With her cheeks loosening up slovenly, Aphrodite continued rolling on the kedamalos stomach.
Hey. Souta. I seriously have one wish, butis it alright?
Sure. What is it, so suddenly?
Can you leave this child to me in the ball? If its on top of this childs stomachI could sleep for thousands of years.
Umm. So with this, Ds request for a soft and fluffy heavenly bed has been cleared?
Of course! This childs stomach is a first-rate product that wont lose to any bedding in heaven! Hey, hey. Souta! This is my once-in-a-lifetime wish!
Well, I dont really mind.
Really!? As expected of Souta! You understand what Im saying!
Uh!
Geezshes really calcting.
When I gave permission, Aphrodite hugged my body tightly.
Is it really alright to use a living creature as a bed?
I still had this concern, but it was better than being tricked into buying something at that magic tool shop.
And thus I have cleared two out of three tasks in the Ball Facilities Expansion n.
[1]This is a fox fire or will-o-wisp. However, that doesnt make any sense, as youll read in a moment, so Im just going to leave it like this

After working onbinations, it was time to go to sleep.
Aphrodite, that girl, was totally absorbed in the kedamalo, so it seemed like I was finally able to use the bed all by myself.
I-Its not really lonely, you know?
It was regrettable that I would no longer have the opportunity to gaze upon her magnificent chest, but I was excited at the thought of being able to use that huge bed.
If I considered the state of my health if I continued to lose sleep for a while, this was a good thing.

Damn you, Aphrodite!
Why is she like thisIll only be able to do it at a time when its inconvenient for me.
Now then.
What to do now?
Now that I think about it, since its the first Im testing this skill, I should choose a monster that is safe.
Having decided that, I chose the name of the Mad Mush in the window screen.
If it was this guy with his Disorder Powder skill that causes arousalI might have just one chance to do erotic things.
Even if I cant take over its mind directly, that doesnt mean I should give up hope!
When my consciousness returnedwhat entered my sight was a grasnd that continued indefinitely.
Where is this?
I was justid out on my bed and was attempting to verify the skill, but.
Huh?
The surrounding bushes were extremely big, I felt like my line of sight was getting lower, but.
Noko! ?
And then I noticed the changes that had urred to my body.
So thats it!
Right nowmy soul is in the Mad Mushs body!?
In that case, perhaps this grasnd is!?
It seems thatI have somehow ended up inside the capsule ball that I could only ever view from the outside.
[1]This is one of those really hard to trante Japanese words, . It refers to the mind, spirit, soul, and heart in pretty much every figurative sense of the words. For example, its one of the words that together I tranted as mana, literally spirit power. Mind and spirit have different connotations, especially in a fantasy setting, but I thought soul was the closest to getting across the intended meaning, especially after the rest of the chapter
[2]After thinking about it, Im going to change these to Mush instead of Marsh. They resemble mushrooms, and in Japanese both mush and marsh would be . If I get around to it, Ill change the past chapters, but for now this will only be from here on out
Chapter 63
Tantor: Jason
Aphrodites Daily Life
The highlights so far.
The results of the soul maniption skill are that I have taken over the mind of the mad mush in the capsule ball.
Woah~.
So the inside of the ball has be like this, huh?
A wide grasnd spread out in front of my eyes.
What is itthis feeling?
Oddly settling, or healing?
It was the first time I had entered, but I felt that, if it was in this ball, I could spend thousands of hours.
Alright.
I finally made it, so lets take a look around at Aphrodite, Carolina, and Sheryls situations.
Ive been interested for a while now about what the three of them normally do inside the ball.
Munya munya. Soutano food yet~?
First is Aphrodite.
It seems that for her, whether she was in the ball or outside, what she did wouldnt change.
She was mumbling carefreely in her sleep atop the soft and fluffy kedamalos stomach.
Only 1 point.
Through the gaps in her pajamas, her two breasts that filled it to bursting were peeking out intermittently.
.
.
What? Perhaps this situation is a once in a lifetime opportunity?
No wonder.
Currently, my mind is in the body of the mad mush.
In this situation, Aphrodite wont be able to see through my ulterior motives, and if it gets found out, the entire crime can be charged to the mad mush.
In other wordsit is the setup for the perfect crime.
At no risk, I can satisfy myself with Aphrodites breasts; lucky!
Having decided that, I should strike while the iron is hot!
Wafuu!
However.
Something unexpected happened.
I decided to take a big leap, and at the moment I tried to jump at Aphrodites body.
All of a sudden the kedamalo send my body flying using itsrge body.
Nokooooooo!?
Fortunately I was in the ball where there was norge damage, but the mad mushs light body flew ten meters away.
Haha.
This was a surprise.
Perhaps that kedamalodid it see through my secret intentions as I approached?
After it sent me flying, the kedamalo also disyed its wariness.
Damn you, Aphrodite!
Againand againyou oppose my supremacy!
Fufufu.
This time is thanks to a subordinates fun y[1], huh?
Next time for sureIll make those two drooping ripe fruits mine and have you show them to me!
Having judged that achieving this mission was difficult due to an unexpected ambush, I headed off to see the situation of the next person while refusing to admit defeat.
Chapter 64
After confirming the status of Aphrodite, it is Carolinas turn.
By the way, what does Carolina do all day?
I get the picture of her drinking tea while she reads gracefully, but what will she really do?
Along with her usual mysterious behaviour, her privacy is wrapped in mystery.
Why is that?
Because its a little scary to make sure
However, well, its not like I cant do anything if I get hurt.
Its one chance in a thousand, so lets take a look.
[One hundred and one one hundred and two one hundred and three one hundred and four one hundred and five]
I could hear Carolinas voice quietly saying numbers after walking for a while.
When I extended my sight to the person who was there I was surprised by what I saw
[Fun. Have you been out yet?]
Before Carolina was the figure of a Goblin Knight who was practicing using his weapon.
I wonder if hes doing hard training.
The Goblin swinging his Iron Mace made by Sheryl looked tired as he was sweating.
[You cannot continue with this level of training you are not qualified to be a familiar of Souta-sama.]
Apparently, Carolina seems to be training the Goblin Knight.
I was wondering why the goblin levels were rising recently even though they had not defeated monsters the mystery has finally been solved.
Carolina is serious within the ball.
[You! Who said you could rest?]
[Gobu!?]
Carolina kicks a Goblin Knights foot with her own, wearing boots.
Oi, hey! Goblins!
If they are kicked by a beautiful girl dressed in a maid outfit its a reward!
Im getting impatient! Lets switch!
Its not impossible for me to use my Mental Maniption skill if I am already using it.
System Message.
(Please choose the target monster.)
Aphrodite
Carolina Barton
Sheryl O Telrod.
Werewolf Man
Adamita Golem
Kedamaro
Goblin Knight
Light Mash
Fire Fox
Mad Mash
I choose the Goblin Knight without dy, and I hope my spirit moves on.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next time my conscience returns my spirit had joined one of the Goblin knights.
[Go-Gobu!?]
What-what is this ce?
I dont know why, but my body is heavy, as though its being crushed.
My body was standing up, but it was feeling a wavering feeling.
[That one over there]
[Gobu?]
[ Who said you could rest your hands?]
There was no trace of the respect that she usually shows me.
Carolinas eyes looked down at mepletely as if she is seeing something disgusting.
[They will take responsibility as a group soon, Ill raise the gravity from 5 times to 10 times from now on as a punishment.]
The next moment Carolina snapped her finger.
The burden on my body doubled I wont resist crawling on the ground.
I see!
By the way, I heard it from Carolina earlier.
In the Capsule Ball time is slower and it seems that this is an environment where it is difficult to get results even after training.
She thinks its impossible to get results with regr training and probably improves the gravity load using magic.
[Gobu.!]
No, no, no.
Even so isnt it harder than it needs to be?
The training has already reached the torture level due to the increase in gravity load from 5 to 10 times.
I was casually crushed to the ground, but it seems that the other Goblins knights were too.
[So how long will you be sleeping?]
Carolina kicks an unforgivable kick to my face that was crawling across the floor.
[Gobuu~]
She trampled on my face with leather boots and I let a miserable voice escape.
Its one thing that as she swung her legs quickly toward me that was rolling on the floor From the skirt of maids clothing, Carolinas underwear appeared before my eyes.
Theyre ck.
Carolinas ck underwearbined with a garter belt was demonic!
From the view of Carolinas skirt as I crawled across the floor, there was a spectacle of erotic violence.
Id like to get a permanent residency under that skirt.
[Ku! Whats wrong with that ufortable look?]
The pleasure of seeing the panties of a beautiful girl in a maid suit while youre being despised!
Every time I was trampled under Carolinas feet, it seemed as if the sexual habit that did not spring from the depths of this body was going to do it.
[You Why were you staring at my body while blinking while ago!?]
And naturally, Carolina wasnt aware of me.
All the sins will be in the Goblin Knight.
Carolina was attractive with her usual and calm Master, but she also had another charm, the Carolina that now smashed my face on the floor and looked at me like rubbish.
Overwhelming good fortune!
I could die right here!!
[ I have doubts, really are you a Goblin Knight?]
[Gobu!?]
This is bad.
Carolina was pointing at me, looking sceptical at me, that I wasnt listening to what she was saying even though she was kicking me.
Until recently I had to be loving her underwear, but now I was lifting her skirt exposing my observation.
[Where youre looking from, youre human I feel the same atmosphere as a human male.]
[..]
Carolina had already half realized that I had entered Goblin Knights body.
Im so sorry!
In that case, bad luck!
Ive got enough reward from Carolina and its time to leave this in this point.
I soon decide to switch to the next demon using the Mental Maniption skill.
Chapter 65
TL: Aria Red
Editor: Rumanshi
When I regained consciousness, my soul was already inside the firefoxs body.
With their fluffy fur, the firefox has an appearance that would certainly be popr amongst the high school girls walking around Shibuya and Harajuku.
Im an idiot!
Why didnt choose the firefox sooner!
When I think about it again, I kinda feel bad for the monster whom I possessed for taking the me earlier.
Anyone would feel on guard if there was a humanoid monster looking up their skirt while breathing heavily.
HOWEVER!
The n this time should be wless.
With this undeniably cute appearance, Im sure that no girls would be wary of me.
Cuteness is justice!
In the end, looks prevail!
After thinking so, I started looking for Cielle using the firefoxs body with an ulterior motive in mind.
This is!
After walking for a short while I arrived at the hut that Cielle lives in.
This was the hut that Cielle made by using the materials that she had on hand that she brought inside the ball.
Inside of it was a pretty well-made facility, and this was where all the equipment for the goblins were made.
When I look at it up close, it is amazing after all.
So she was able to build something this well-made inside the ball.
Her engineering skills are really praiseworthy.
Hmm? Aint it Kotarou!
Cielle appeared not long after.
It appears that my name is Kotarou.
By any chance, did she name each of the Firefoxes one by one?
She was probably doing some work just now.
Cielle appeared before me wearing a tank top and a pair of shorts, looking very casual.
SHIT!
Thats so hot!
I cant endure this!
I want to push her down right now!
Whats wrong, Kotarou? Your breathing sounds pretty rough today.
Ccalm down.
Im still a virgin all this time because I keep losing myposure like this
There should be more chance to do erotic stuff.
And I will make sure that today is the day!
Hey, Kotarou! Come in!
Kon! Kon!
It appears that Cielle wanted me toe inside.
I ended up being carried into the bed inside the hut.
What a good chance!
After losing all self-control, my firefox body jumped into Cielles oppai lolis body.
Hmm. Kotarou! It tickles!
Kon! Kon!
Ththis is paradise!
Burying my head in her chest, it felt like I was in heaven.
However, humans are sinful creatures.
Even though I should have been satisfied having buried my face in her chest!
Thirsting for more, I entered the gap in her clothes.
Wa!? Kotarou! What are you
As one would expect, Cielle became bewildered at my action.
The inside of her clothes felt very humid.
She probably had to be near the furnace in order to make the equipment.
Cielle was sweating like waterfalls.
BUTThat makes it even better!
I spun my tongue around and started licking every sweat on her body.
!
Cielle let out a seductive moan every time I licked her.
Does that mean that Cielle is not really against this?
She was bewildered at first, but after a while, she epted my tongue without resistance and even seemed to be enjoying the pleasure.
KoKotarou
And then, how long had I been licking her body for, I wonder.
Cielle was no longer able to bear the intense heat sweeping through her body and started undressing of her own ord.
Oooooooooo!
So this how a girls body really looks like!
I had no idea!
It looks different to the pictures I saw on the inte!
I cant bear this any longer. Kotaroe here, quick
I was shocked.
No matter how cute firefoxes were, no would usually take it this far.
Dont tell me, is Cielle actuallysecretly a sexual deviant?
Excuse me.
Suddenly, a familiar voice resounded in the hut.
Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Whats wrong, Cielle. You look very flustered.
Whats with the timing?
Cielle hid her body using the futon and responded to the sudden intruder.
Err, What are you doing here, Carolina? You doing some sort of errand?
Im not. Its not really an errand, but theres something thats been bothering me for a while now
Shit!
Carolinacant you just leave quickly
I want to start getting licky lickity with Cielles body until my tongue dries up!
So basically from some time ago.I can feel masters presence.
Na! How did she find out!
Lets think about this calmly.
Judging from her wordings, she doesnt seem to have any definite proofs as of yet.
Whwhat do you mean? Soutas presence inside the barent you just overthinking it?
No. I can clearly sense masters presence from this hut. If you reached my level, youd be able to sense his presence by the smell of his soul.
Thats scary!
How does a soul even smell!
Its really troubling how at times, the things that Carolina does are just way beyond myprehension.
I still cant believe this, after all. Souta is a monster tamer. How would he even get inside the ball? He couldnt have possibly thrown the ball at himself, could he?
I am also of the same opinionbut, he might have some kind of skill as a monster tamer that allows him to enter the ball.
Yeah. That doesnt sound imusiblebut we cant be sure without asking the person himself. I think its better if we ask him directly tomorrow!
You have a good point.
Ah, that was close.
Having heard Cielles reply, Carolina reluctantly agreed to her suggestion.
Ill have to excuse myself now.
Carolina bowed politely and started heading towards the entrance.
Cielle took a long breath, thinking that she had managed to avoid arousing suspicion.
Immediately after that,
though, Let me give you onest advice. Using monsters tofort yourself is fine and all, but its better to keep a reasonable limit.
Having been pointed out by Carolina, Cielles body burned up.
Yeah.
As expected of Carolina.
She can see through everything.
I have to be careful
If I made just one mistakemy sexual harassment would be exposed, I would be treated scornfully.
With her being wary of my presence inside the ball, I better refrain from doing any pranks using soul maniption for a while.
Chapter 66
[Hey. Theres a rumor that the Wraith was defeated.]
[I dont believe you Arent you getting older?]
(NT: I dont know if you guys got it. He says that because he thinks his partner heard badly because hes getting older.)
The next day.
As I walked in front of the adventurers guild, I could hear what the adventurers were gossiping about.
To be more precise, it was thanks to Carolina that we defeated the wraith.
Somehow, the rumor that it was defeated had spread.
It was a little surprising.
Since it was only yesterday when I received Wraiths subjugation Quest.
I wonder how fast is the speed at which this sort of thing spreads?
Maybe it was exaggerated that I told Chloe-chan I dont think that Reis is going to do any more bad things.
[Hey. Youre Kazehaya Souta, right? I have something Id like to ask you, just for a moment, do you mind?]
Gard Westberg
Gender: Man
Age: 22
This man showed up in front of me from somewhere.
[Im sorry, but Who are you?]
[Oh, sorry. My name is Gard Westberg, and I grew up in a family of virtuous and venerable heroes.]
[Eh? Heroes?]
[Fumu. From this point I think I have to exin myself. My ancestor had brilliant adventures in the struggle for the subjugation of Demon Lord Iblis 300 years ago. Since then, the Westberg family has been recognized as a family of heroes by the country.
But unfortunately, the world is a set of rights and obligations. The people who born in the Westberg house will have a power many times stronger to resist the Demon Lord who is said to revive soon]
[]
Wow
This guy he started talking about something like that so abruptly.
I have a sense of shame for this tall, slim ikemen*.
(NT: Handsome guy)
[So What does a hero need from me?]
[Fumu. I have heard that Souta-kun is a powerful person who defeated the Wraith. Id like you to help me in my longing wish for Kill the Demon Lord.]
[Demon Lord you say!?]
[Yes. And? If youre interested, I cant tell you the details here, but lets meet at this tavern tonight.]
[]
Gard, who proimed himself a hero, walked away from me as soon as he told me that.
Good.
What should I do?
The Demon Lord was the target from the beginning when I was summoned to this world.
By defeating the Demon Lord, Aphrodite could safely return to the celestial world and I could earn the right to return to the contemporary Japan.
I have an unexpected opportunity, but for the moment I decide to consult thedies on the ball.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since I suddenly received Hero Gards request to Subdue the Demon Lord I decided to go back to the inn and talk to the 3 girls.
[I refuse! No, no, no! Absolutely not!]
Exining the circumstances, I am surprised that Aphrodite is the first to refuse.
[N? Why do you object? You said you wanted me to defeat the Demon Lord forever to you return to the heaven.]
[U~ thats]
Aphrodite when pressed by me she was frustrated.
[May I ask you why? Souta would just go back to his old world, right?]
[Yes. Well I wonder if thats it?]
I didnt think about it that well around here.
ording to the story of Aphrodite, when I defeat the Demon King and return to Japan, my skills will not disappear.
Originally, my goal in this world was to bring a beautiful girl I would have gotten with a Capsule Ball to Earth.
When I decide to return to my original world will Sheryl and Carolinae with me?
Thinking that its troubling somehow.
[Then all the more reason I refuse! Whats wrong with you, Souta!? Isnt this the time when you should be chicken as usual? Its not toote to defeat the Demon Lord, even after save a certain amount of strenght!]
[U~. Well, it may actually be so.]
Perhaps Aphrodite does not want to return to the Celestial World?
Did you like the Kedamaro bed that much?
Just think of Aphrodite who likes to sleep more than three times a day.
[Lets hear Sheryls opinion.]
[I cant believe it all of a sudden, but I think it would be really bad if the Demon Lord isnt defeated once he revives. I think there would be people who would be saved only if he were quickly defeated.]
[ I see. Well, I can understand that kind of thinking too.]
No matter how powerful the Demon Lord is, he will probably be captured no doubt if you throw a Capsule Ball at him.
Considering the simple victory rate, I may have to defeat the Demon Lord on behalf of humanity.
[What do you think, Carolina?]
[I think that thinking about it is useless. The existence of the demon Lord they speak of ispletely false.]
[Eh? Really?]
They were unexpected words that came out of Carolina, the first one I would trust.
From what she said, it seems she knew the location of the real demon lord.
[Why do youe to that conclusion?]
[Uh, thats for]
Because of my pressure, Carolina turns her eyes away.
[ Im sorry. Ipletely exaggerated. It may be false, but I think its okay if its just asking for information.]
[I understand. If Carolina agrees then thats fine.]
That makes two for and one against.
Its settled.
As Carolina said, if the risk is high, I just have to refuse. There wont be any particr problem if its just going to listen.
There is no yer who doesnt care about the final boss information.
We have the approval of the members, so tomorrow Ill go with Gard and gather information about the Demon Lord.
Chapter 67
[Hey. I thought youd nevere.]
That night.
When I went to the designated tavern, Gard was there with a refreshing Ikemen smile.
Apparently, this was a tavern for the rest of all SaintBells adventurers.
When I stepped inside the building, a manly smell seemed toe out of it.
[Excuse me. To tell you the truth, I havent yet decided to take the job]
[I see. Ill hear the story of why for the moment. Im going to order a drink, do you have any requests?]
[No. In particr]
[Cantinero, the house special drink for him!]
The next moment Gard snaps his fingers.
An employee with a Kaiser beard shows up from behind the counter and brings me a drink.
Wow!
Are there really people who call other people just by snap their fingers!?
Is the first time I see it in real life.
[ well, then lets move on to the request. Have you ever heard of a demon who has settled in this city?]
[No. This is the first time Ive heard it.]
[ In fact, there are rumors that hes settled in the east residence of SaintBell. The guilds are secretly investigating high-ranking adventurers there is no exception and thatsing back.]
[What about the Devil Lord?]
Something smells bad.
First of all, from the image of the Devil Lord I have, it is like someone sitting on the top floor of a magnificent tower built between space and time.
follow a ordinary thought wouldnt stay in the residence of a city.
[ Although I cant determine that, I think the odds are good enough. The predictions of the Demon Lords rebirth are famous stories. What I want to ask you would be the subjugation of the demon who settled in the East residence.]
[.]
Its an unbelievable story!
But if youd said it in the first ce, we could have saved time.
[Im sorry. I cant trust that story to be]
[Ill pay the reward. If I put 30 million col in your hands?]
[30 million!?]
I-Is not too much reward?
30 million col from Adelheid is equivalent to 33 million yen in modern Japan.
[Oh, since Im a person born into a family of venerable heroes, its easy for me to make that kind of money.]
I didnt know that.
Did the heros descendants lead such an affluent life?
On careful thought, the conditions offered by Gard seem to be convenient.
Why is that so?
From what I have heard from Gards story, the creatures who settled in the city residence did not feel like the Demon Lord at all.
If you consider it, if you can get 30 million Col just for defeating a fake demon king, it will unquestionably be a request.
Immediately afterpleting the money fever in a mine search, it is best to have more assets.
[I understand. I dont know if I can defeat him, but Ill do my best.]
[Really!? What a joy! Let us fight together to protect the peace of the world!]
When I responded to the deal, a refreshing ikemen smile floated on Gards face.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 hourter.
Gard, who decided to leave Souta at the tavern, was walking in some ruins waiting for hisrades.
These ruins were a hideout of a group of demon hunters called the TheFeastofRoses used for meetings.
[Kuhaha, apparently it seems to have worked well.]
In the hideout, Gard was talking to his partners about the tavern.
They were ouws hired by Gard. These were powerful people who didnt mind killing others if necessary.
[But the boss also has a terrible personality, trying to get for himself the fishermens profits.]
[Fufu. Thats a story I wont tire of telling.]
Supposedly, a contract was signed that said, If you defeat the demon who lives in the mansion, you will be given 30 million col but Gards intentions were different.
Gard intended to take credit when Souta and the Demon were fighting and would have weakened.
If the opponent was a stronger demon, he should abandon Souta and flee.
Using adventurers attracted by money to use them as bait was routine for the Gard group.
[I dont like it. Even if its a imitation of the demon lord, even if its a demon or something, Ill take it down with a single shot.]
Who unloaded his annoyance in the group that was animated was the outstanding member of TheFeastofRoses Domon.
Domon had a delicate sword technique, that swording out of his gigantic body that was 2 meters high, and he had been supporting Gard since the groups begin.
[Domon, dont worry. Ive bought your abilities, but is this the way we do all our jobs?]
Gard pours sake into Domons empty ss to ease his mood.
Gards family that bore the blood of the hero was in a position where arge grant was taken from the country every time they made an achievement in the subjugation of demons.
However.
In the past, the descendants of the house of the hero who possessed an invincible glory, with the passage of time would be normal people.
Gards family managed to maintain their current position by gathering thugs under the name of the Hero and hunting demons.
300 yearster, the heros family waspletely corrupted.
The Iing ie in the country was proportional to the level of threat from evil demons.
In particr, they emphasized the existence of the Demon Lord because it was possible for them to extend the story and earn more ie from the country.
[Son, lets celebrate sess with the demon king business and get a drink!]
Gard, who was convinced of the sess of the strategy, emptied his ss with his good humor friends.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
( I see, so thats what happened.)
In the meantime.
Carolina, who was seeing the state of Gard with bat eyes, had a blue vein on her forehead.
It was a story from the past about the existence of the demon lord who reigned over Adellheid and was feared in the past.
Now hecked such prestige, even there were those who used his name as a tool to make money.
(That indignation, to use the name of the Maou-sama for such vulgar purposes.)
Carolina, who had listened to Gards conversation, was burning with killer intent.
Chapter 68
The next day.
I epted the request of Gard, a member of the heros family, and was walking into the rumored mansion.
[There!]
The mansion on the outskirts of the city was thergest in Saint Bell just counting the site area.
[ are you reallying in? If the real enemy is the Demon Lord Souta would be sent to fly with a blow]
[Uu~.. Somehow in my mind it sounds terrible.]
After arriving at the mansion, Aphrodite and Sheryl werepletely frightened.
Un.
Being dragged in by both of them, Im starting to get worried too.
Maybe the real demon lord lives here?
The mansion seemed to have a surprising aura enough to make you embrace the anxiety.
[Dont worry. I am convinced that the sign of magical power I feel from this mansion is not from the Maou-sama].
[ is that so?]
[Yes, I feel the strong smell of one of my brothers inside. Certainly, it seems that a demon of high rank lives in his own way I will let the master take care of him.]
[.]
Ive been thinking about it for a while youve got me a little overrated.
I think carolina is not stressed even if her opponent is a demon, but it would be better if i paid more attention than ever.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When we entered the mansion of the problem, the cold air was felt in the skin.
It probably hasnt been used for a long time.
The hallway was covered with dust, and a spiders web stretched over the ceiling.
As I came in the daytime, the light filled it and i had a good perspective, but I would bepletely terrified if I had to visit it at night.
[Apparently the owner of this mansion is a hopeless antiques maniac.]
[Really?]
[Yes. The vase over there, the vase ced in the other window, are valuable. If you take them to the guild, theyd be bought for a reasonable price.]
[.]
Oi, Oi.
Theres no way they would have left such expensive objects, is there?!
The mystery of the mansion only goes deeper.
[ What is that!?]
Did you find anything interesting? Carolina starts running down the hallway of the mansion after she pointed.
What Carolina had run into was a bookcase.
[ how surprising. All the old books on this bookshelf are first-degree objects.]
[In the level that can meet on the Books on all ages and countries that Caro needed?]
[Yes. It looks like if were even on the ball, I wont be bored for a while.]
[]
What will I do?
Its not like theres no method of to throw a Capsule Ball and capturing the entire bookshelf.
No, do you think about that after seeing a little more?
To avoid getting into troubleter, it would not be toote to do so after collecting information about the mansion.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Apparently, this mansion seems to be wider than I thought.
Even just searching on the first floor feels like it took me about 30 minutes.
Repeating this on the 2nd and 3rd floor obviously takes away the desire to continue.
It was right after I tried to finish the first floor trying to climb up the stairs to the second floor.
[Master, please be careful. I feel signs of the enemy from behind this hallway.]
[. like a demon for example?]
[No, its probably something simr.]
When we walked for a while, countless fellows came out from the front.
Ghoul | Grade E | LV 15/15
Vitality: 118
Strength: 82
Magic Power: 15
Mana: 10
Skills
None
Guee~
Is there such a monster?
Just seeing it makes me want to hit him.
The Ghoul carried a disgusting physiological sensation as if a decayed human body had be a monster, thats how it was.
Thats a total of three.
I could an smell like rotten eggsing out of the monsters bodies even from a distance.
[U its a terrifying monster Souta! Attack him quickly.]
[I know.]
No matter how much the other part is grotesque in appearance.
On our side we have the Capsule Ball that gives victory from an attack.
It was the moment I was trying to throw the capsule ball with my arms.
[Wait, Souta! Are you out of your mind?]
I was stopped by aphrodite on the edge.
[ Whats bothering you?]
[You know, I didnt want to say something like that the inside of the ball is not just for me, but its a space where Caro and Sheryl live. And to put in such an unpleasant monster What kind of sensitivity do you have?! I cant let you!]
Oi, Oi.
Theres no way I can ept that kind of personal reasoning!
Although I was prompted by the moment, I mean, I didnt even take her feelings into ount.
Id shake my head if you told me to live with a Ghoul under the same roof.
Its useless.
This time I will fight in an ordinary way to respect the opinion of Aphrodite.
The three Ghouls are approaching us at the same time.
Nuu.
What is this?
Probably the quickest way is to summon the Adamitas Golem and crush them with his palms.
But I dont want to see as much as the ghoul getting crushed to pieces.
Im probably thinking of a trauma thates to me in my dreams.
[Souta-san. I wonder if zuch thing has been prepared!]
While my head was aching, Sheryl pulled out of nowhere a stick with cloth wrapped in circles.
[Is that?]
Crimson Magic Sword | Grade A
(Magic sword made of Adamite ore. Allows mid-range attacks by shock waves to put the users magical power inside.)
[Thats the weapon I forged! After receiving the adamite ore from souta-san.. it is a piece that took its time in making!]
So what Sheryl reach to me was a magic sword made of adamite ore that we got from the other day.
No, no, no.
Thats not what I want to hear
Why are you giving it to me right now!?
[Good, Souta-san! I want you to kill those ghouls with this magic sword I made!]
[]
Sheryls eyes gleamed with the belief that I would fight and they dont hesitate.
Eh!?
Why do I have to fight like this!?
I definitely dont want to do this.
How sad is it to have to fight a close battle with such a grotesque monster as opponent?
[Thats a good idea! Souta always lets the others fight in every battle it would be good if from time to time you fight.]
Why is it?
It seems that what sheve said has a strong argument, but I do not want to do so just because she say so.
[Its an honor to be able to see the Masters heroic appearance!]
Wait a second.
I was hoping she would say,Theres no need to bother Master with an opponent of this level, or something.
Why are your eyes getting shiny!?
Damn it!
You you want to see me fight so much?
[Oooooooooooooo~!]
It cannot be impossible to fulfill to expectations like a man if you tell him until now.
While I was into it, out of despair, I took the magic sword and pushed myself into the group of ghouls.
Chapter 69
After another 30 minutes.
We have explored inside the mansion following Carolina, finally reaching our destination.
[Theres no mistake, looks like theres an enemy on the other side.]
[Hmm, this is the Bosss room.]
[]
Im internally tired, because I did something I wasnt used to.
The power of the magic sword made by Sheryl was so incredible?
Fortunately, I had no trouble in the battle against the Ghouls
The damage to my spirit wasrge.
Although the battle is over, the sticky fluid that stuck to my clothes does not go away.
Now I m. Really furious.
I wonder why I had to meet with such an unpleasant monster.
Damn it!
This is all the fault of the demon who settled in the mansion!
I wont forgive him!
Were going to eliminate the enemy to vent my anger.
[Good!]
It was right after I opened the bedroom door that I made a new decision.
Yuuuko
Sex: Female
Age: 521
Surprising!
Suddenly, a beautiful girl jumped out of my sight with her hairbed in two long curls.
Is that my imagination?
This person Looks like Ive met her somewhere before.
The girl seems, somehow, to be changing her clothes.
[Wow! What am I looking at? Hahaha.]
Hearing that girls childish voice, it finally came to me like a pin.
No doubt about it.
This girl is Yuuko, the wraith that was in Saint Bells cemetery.
Unlike the earlier Magic Mode that I had before, suddenly changed to myHuman Mode*
(*This refers to the loss of the determination and anger I had before)
I mean what happened?
What is the exnation for the development of this fortunate events?
The atmosphere there was a few moments ago was destroyed.
[Well, youre here! Why are you here for? Hurry up and say it!]
Yuuuko, who I had seen in his underwear, turned his face red like a boiled squid.
[Theres something I wanted to ask you Are you ashamed, Yuuko?]
[]
When I asked her, Yuuko extends her arms to the sky and takes a posture of superiority.
[Of course I dont Im different from you, human its because Ive lived for over 300 years. Emotions are irrational things, and I abandoned them up a long time ago.]
[If so, is it possible for a man to see you naked? Isnt that a problem?. Wouldnt you be ashamed?]
[Ugh]
Did I just hit a painful ce? Yuuko seems to choke on her words.
[Of course! Of course I dont feel anything if a man sees me naked!]
Halfway through the sentence, Yuuko covered herself using her arms.
I am convinced that now, the wraith called Yuuko, seems to have the mentality of a high school student.
I understand that.
I understand very well.
When I was a high schooler student, I had times when I thought Im not ashamed.
Still What luck.
With a sense of satisfaction, I was able to see with permission his appearance in his underwear.
[What to do? Originally this is Yuukos house I was just changing my clothes in my room.]
[]
Yuuko responds with an ufortable look, even in her underwear.
Hmph.
It seems that the truth behind the false demon we were request to subjugate is beginning to appear.
[Hey Souta Whats this? What is that?]
[Zouta-san Do you know thiz girl?]
Aphrodite and Sheryl, who were in the sphere when I was searching the cemetery, seem not to understand the situation.
I decided to listen to Yuukos circumstances as I tried to exin everything to both of them.
Chapter 70
[I was originally living in a vige to the east of Saint Bell the hateful Demon Hunterscame causing trouble and destroyed my home Because of that I was forced to live here.]
[]
Demon hunters.
It is a group that attacks demons for mary purposes.
The demons, with the hatred they have against the human race and its immense magical power, are ced in a position where they have great rewards for their subjugation.
Because of the circumstances, demons tend to attack humans many times.
If I think about it, the hero Gard who gave me the application can also be part of the Demon Hunters.
[And then I found this mansion as my new residence. Apparently they havent been able to find a new buyer for this ce since the death of their former owner.]
So this mansion is it for sale in some store?
By the way, it looks like Yuuko was wandering around the cemetery to find materials to create new familiars.
The race of the Wraiths is capable of creating Hitodamas, Ghouls, etc. from human corpses.
[What about the adventurers who invaded the mansion? Havent they hurt you?]
[Kukuku. Those who are unreachable will never get a scratch. Although Im giving them some traumas with the Ghouls so they donte back again.]
[]
Now I have no reason to me Yuuko.
But what will we do?
It may be easy to drive her out of the mansion if I ask Carolina to Its a bad idea.
Its not good either to leave Yuuko as she is.
It seems that among the adventurers its famous that demons settle in this mansion, and it is not umon for them to hunt demons. At some point they will end up being a threat to Yuuko.
[This is luck! Ive been thinking about what kind of demon had settled here I couldnt imagine it was a brat!]
A voice said in the darkness.
When I looked at the person who spoke, the figure of a brilliant Ikemen with a weapon and a refreshing smile.
[Gard-san why are you here?]
When I asked, Gard pulls the sword out of its holster and startsughing.
[Haha, you havent noticed yet? You were being used as a disposable piece to defeat the demon!
In fact, I thought the demon would kill you when you two started fighting. But the situation changed! You must not fear even if your enemy is a demon, because she is only a child! Today were going to hunt the demon TheFeastofRoses will defeat you!]
[]
He went so far as to say that dialogue even in a refreshing way.
I see.
I wonder why I was fooled by a guy like that.
I was ashamed to see the refreshing smile of the person who cheated on me.
[Master, let me finish this scum, Ill take care of them in 10 seconds if you let me.]
[ No, no.]
For anyone but me, Carolina is a cold person.
If I leave it to her, Im sure she have a big chance to kill Gard.
I dont want to do anything like stealing a persons life, even if its a bad guy.
Cause all Im aiming for is a win-win world that can make me happy.
[Summon Goblin Knight.]
The demon I chose is the Goblin Knight.
It would be better if Gards opponent were one of the demons Not too strong and not too weak that I have in my group.
Although I feel I can beat him in a moment if I use the Adamitas Golem, but I still feeling that is an excessive fighting force.
[Well Id heard rumors It was true you used demons.]
Hahaha! You could have defeated the Wraith using such a weak upation!]
Oi, oi, oi, oi.
You can make a very good g.
After all, it seems that the upation called Monster Tamer is considered lost in Adellheid.
This is the result that I gained a great amount of experience due to the protection of Aphrodite called Absolute Control that I acquired by chance.
Ive heard that normal monster tamers can only use up to 3 demons.
[Then Id like to give you a demonstration, my dear Souta-kun, of a group of soldiers whove been training for 10 years against a Goblin on your side, do you think it can win somehow?]
[Who said its just one Goblin?]
Lets see.
Let me surprise you by showing my strength.
Thats what I thought. Ill summon more Goblin Knights from the Capsule Ball.
The total number is 15.
A body of Goblins equipped with special weapons made by Sheryl seems pretty cool if you looked at them from my perspective.
[Are you stupid?! What the hell? This amount is!]
Thank you! That was the reaction I expected!
Its reasonable for Gard to be surprised.
[ Well, theres no problem! Even if my numbers are lower, the other side is still Goblins! Theres no reason to fear them!]
[Oh!!!]
The mercenaries raised their morale by Gards words, immediately attacking Goblins corps.
[Goobu! Goobu Go!]
However.
It seems that the Goblin Knights fighting abilities was higher than he had anticipated.
Is this the result of Carolinas hard training?
Gards mercenaries could only retreat to my troops advance.
Hmm?
There is no doubt who is dominant in this battle, but If you look closely, theres a ce where Goblin knights are being pushed back.
[Gard-san! Please, retreat yourself! We can win this battle! Domon will make sure of it!]
Domon Bardocash
Gender: Male
Age: 35
When I looked at the area where the problem was There was a stout man* who was about 2 meters high.
(TN: The word used here is Osan, which means Big Uncle or Big Person, as in Highschool DxD, Issei calls Tannin Osan because of her big size and age.)
Chapter 71
[Domon is great! Hes the only one we can trust!]
[Haha!]
The diator named Domon was the one who raised their morale, pushing the Goblin Knights one after another.
[Huhaha! Great! Domon, jump around that timorous bastards neck!]
[Understood! The pact that bound my fangs with Gard-sama I will make you understand it with your own body.]
It seems that these two have established a rtionship of trust that cannot be built overnight.
Wow.
This Osan* is really strong.
It is truly amazing the fine skill he has with the sword, something you cant even imagine because of the enormous body he has.
(TN: Ive decided to leave it at that, it means old man or big man.)
I can only think that he is serving to the wrong person.
What attracted this Osan with a good face to Gard?
[Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!]
One man roar echoed in the room, my Goblin army was breaking up its formation.
The man who crosses the center is naturally Domon.
[They have no excuse for taking so long with a single human. If they return to the sphere, it looks like Ill have to train the Goblins from the begining.]
Carolina, who was watching the battle develop, was in a very bad mood.
Damn it! Say something, Goblins!
I envy them.
Even if they lose the battle, they will be able to receive a reward from Carolina!
(TN: Souta masochist XD)
[Summon Werewolf]
I didnt expect our enemy to bring down the Goblin Knights.
I summoned the Wereworlf, who has a greater fighting ability than the Goblin Knight.
[Do you even have a Werewolf?]
[Gow! Gow!]
Domons skillful sword and Werewolfs powerful w technique shed, spreading sparks around them.
Originally, this demon named Werewolf was created using as material a fat Osan who had a ve firm in Saint Bell.
Now its taking ce a dream fight here, fat Osan VS handsome Osan.
[ Well Gard-san, what should I do with the garbage that cheated me?]
[ Damn it! Damn it!]
Domon is being held at bay in his battle against the Werewolf and he cannot defend Gard.
So I pull out from its holster the Magic Crimson Sword that Sheryl made.
With my current state, I will not be left behind in a direct battle with Gard.
[Who are you!?]
When I shorten the distance with the girls, Gard steps back with fear.
[I told you, my name is Kazehaya Souta, Im the best adventurer.]
[Dont talk nonsense! I am a descendant of the hero!. I see I know! You Youre the demon lord!]
[]
I guess hes confused by fear.
Suddenly, Gard withdraws his suspicion when he sees that I dont understand what hes saying.
Come on.
Why do they call me demon lord if I was summoned as a hero?
This misunderstanding is strange at this point.
[Huh This person Isnt it too much arrogance for such a small fish?]
I guess I was surprised by thement out of ce at Gards.
Immediately after Gard called me [Demon King], I felt Carolina somehow made a smile.
(TN: Lets remember that Carolina think that Souta is the reincarnation of the demon lord)
[Gard-sama, lets retreat!]
Domon takes the Gards hands, whos still petrified in his ce.
Oh, wow.
Did this Osan seed in defeating the Werewolf?
Fortunately, none of them lost their lives, but many monsters were injured after being defeated by Osan Domon.
[Damn it! Kazehaya Souta Ill remember this! Ill take revenge!]
Gard, who was involuntarily stopped by Domon, who then lifted him up with the help of his partners.
Hehe.
Dont think Ill let you run away that easy.
Before you run away, Ill take revenge on the man who tricked me.
Ill show you the real hell!
(Mad Mash! Disorder Powder!)
There is only one exit in the room, so it was easy to predict which escape route they would take.
I gave the order to the two Mad Mashes I had ced in advance.
[[Nokoko!]
Both Mad Mash, who received my order, shoot pink particles from the umbre on their heads.
(NT: Evil D:)
Gard Westburg
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Status: Aroused
[What?. Suddenly my body is hot]
Mission aplished!
Gard who received the Disorder Powder from Mad Mash was breathing heavily.
[Kazehaya Souta What did you do to me?! What did you do to me?!]
[Look around, I think youll understand.]
[]
Before Gards eyes, there was an infernal image that would make anyone want to cover their eyes.
[Ive really Ive loved you for a while!]
[Why are you?! Gard, these feelings!]
[ Im a man, right?]
The mercenaries apanying Gard made their clothes fly and put one body on top of the other.
It is exactly like the name of the group. The feast of roses begins.
(TN: Here refers that Bara, which means pink, is also a way of calling homosexual erotic mangas starring muscr men)
[Youre a demon! Make it stop I cant resist to see! You bastard! Why did this end up like this?]
Gard desperately tried to stop his subordinates, but he realized it was useless.
There are individual differences in the effects of Disorder Powder, so I have also experienced the horror of this condition.
[I like you, Gard. Ive been waiting for three years]
[ What do you say?]
Suddenly, the audacious confession of a subordinate of Gards made him give a loud scream.
[Im serious! Looking at the intrepid face of Gard-sama my heart is moved and quickened.]
[Stop it, Domon!. think it, were men, dont we? This is absolutely wrong!]
Gard, who was hand-to-hand with Domon, had a pale face.
[It doesnt matter! I can no longer contain my feelings.]
Was Gard who noticed his desperate situation, but it was toote.
Gard was pushed down as Domon hugged him, whose height is at least 2 meters.
[No, no Ah Somebody! Help Please, somebody help me!]
A dirty scream echoes in the mansion.
Yeah.
With this, Domon-san would be connected to his unrequited love, while Gard would be able to reflect on his own actions.
I guess this is a happy ending with a win-win situation.
[Have you calcted everything up to this point?]
[Zouta-zan iz a demon. Definitely a guy I dont want az enemy.]
Aphrodite and Sheryl, who witnessed the way these men loved each other with violence, were surprised.
Chapter 72
Then.
I betrayed the traitorous hero, Gard Westberg. Now I have to think about what were gonna do.
[Kukuku. I think its the funniest and most interesting thing Ive seen in a long time.]
Yuuko, who witnessed all this, was smiling in a good mood.
[You were called Kazehaya Souta? That was very bright for a human. I must praise you.]
[Oh, thank you!]
As usual, she looks at me from above
Honestly, I feel happy thinking he praised me.
[Yuuko Are you speaking rudely to our Lord?]
[Waaaaaa! Im so sorry! Im so sorry!]
Yuuuko, whose ears were pulled by Carolina, was screaming as she cried.
Well.
Whats going on now?
What worries me now is Yuuko, shes what worries me.
It would be too bad to leave her as she is.
Who will be the next one to attack her?. One day a really strong demon hunter might show up.
It is also ufortable for the people of the city that demons live near them.
[Eh Yuuko You Dont you want to leave this mansion?]
[Whats going on so suddenly?]
[It seems that it is already known among the adventurers that you are here Isnt it dangerous to be inside the mansion? Isnt it better to move soon?]
[ Its foolish, even if I leave this mansion, the same thing would happen because demons will always be the target of humans.]
Shes got a good point.
As long as there are people like Gard, no matter how much she moves, shell never have a peaceful life.
Its obvious if you think about it.
[Actually I know of a perfect ce for you Yuuko. Its absolutely safe, besides beingfortable and bigger than this mansion]
(TN: Hereses, the awaited moment)
[Wow that sounds interesting.]
Looks like she wasnt so attached to this ce.
If you find a much safer ce, it seems that Yuuko wont think twice about moving her base.
[I can tell you that such a ce does not exist. Youre triying to tell a girl who has lived for over 500 years that there is such an ideal ce If so, I want you to show me.]
[Believe me, dont worry, Yuuko. Could you stand there a little bit? Ill show you the ce Im talking about very soon.]
[Hmmm. Is this okay?]
[Oh Yes, its very good there.]
I immediately throw the Capsule Ball into Yuukos unprotected back.
Even if I cant hit her when I threw her out earlier, it seems possible to touch her when she gets a human appearance.*
(NT: Remember that it was changing when Souta came in So shes practically vulnerable.)
[What? What is this? Whats this? What is this thing?]
The Capsule Ball suddenly shines brightly,pletely absorbing Yuukos body.
It works!
[[[]]]
Three people, Aphrodite, Carolina and Sheryl, watched my actions with warm eyes. Did you expect this to happen?
With this, everything is settled.
City dwellers dont have to be afraid of a demon living near them, and Yuuko has a new home.
Besides, I can add a new candidate to my harem, I dontin.
This is the Win-Win ending that would make every man happy.
[Let me out! Do it already, human! This is an insult to me!]
I felt that Yuuko was protesting inside the ball, hitting the wall hard, but I decided to ignore it.
A beautiful ghost girl captured!
Chapter 73
I think Ill tell you about this.
The traitorous hero. It was a while after the battle against Gard Westburg ended.
Thinking about a lot of things I decided to buy the residence where Yuuko lived.
Because of rumors that Yuuko attacked the demon hunters several times, gossip that The demons have taken over this mansion ran easily, causing the propertys value to drop quite a bit.
Hehe.
When I was listening to Yuukos story I thought,Why not?.
It was a nice miscalction that everything worked out this way.
ording to Carolina, the value of this mansion appears to be more than 5 billion kol, but the price at which we bought it was about a tenth of that amount.
Where did we get that money from?
Of course, the reward we received from the Mineral Collection Quest.
I used 90% of the assets in this case, but I think it was worth buying.
[ Hey! Why does a goddess have to clean?]
[Ze Ha Thiz corridor Iz long, too long.]
Right now.
We were cleaning the residence hall, as it had not been used for a long time.
Aphrodite and Sheryl were doing Zoukin Gaken* in the hallway, getting to rest at halfway.
(TN: Zoukin Gake, thats the way you look at wood floor cleaning in animes, where they run down with a rag in the hands of.)
[I absolutely agree with you, why should the power of a demon be used by a human being?]
Keep working
[Gouuuu. Youre an abusive demon. Ill remember it!]
When I say the rightmand, Yuuko reluctantly resumes the cleanliness I gave her.
Yuuuko, who can fly freely through the sky, has the job of removing the cobwebs that formed on the roof.
(TN: You have four beautiful girls and you make them clean? Dude, you have problems. . -.)
[[[Gobuuu! Gobuuuu!]]]
By the way, we also have the help of some demons for the house cleaning job.
Of course, not only the body of Goblins I have, but also the familiar Ghouls of Yuuko are supporting us.
When I met them, I smelled a rotten egg, but that smell only seems to be emitted by the Ghoul when they are alert.
In essence, they look like skunks.
[ Master, is it really okay for me to have such a valuable book?]
[Yes. If I leave it in the mansion, it would be wasted.]
Carolina has the job of picking out books to take to the inside of the ball.
Oh.
Its true.
Several of the things they wanted were in the mansion, including the books that Carolina wanted.
Actually, thats one of the reasons I decided to buy it.
Well, there was a feeling of guilt about locking the girls inside the ball, and I thought theyd want a big house.
In addition, if we have such a mansion, it is not necessary to move into the forest to verify skills, and I can also create a training camp for demons.
In this way, I managed toplete the three tasks that were in the expansion n of the sphere.
The next morning after cleaning up the residence hall.
Er How did this happen?
When I opened my eyes, there were three beautiful girls sleeping in the same bed as me.
[Munyamunya Souta Is that rice?]
[Master, youve realized the truth]
[Kotaro No, I dont want you to lick that ce]
Three people were on top of my body, even though I was told that this would never happen again.
I can feel my heart racing.
Let me go! Let me go!
You cant sleep when these beautiful girls are hugging you!
Why is that?
The equipment that the three of you requested should have been enough to stay on the ball, and instead my private room is being invaded
Looks like my life hasnt changed, even though Ive expanded the equipment inside the ball.
Chapter 74
Third Volume Starting!
[Its so great to have your own room after all!]
How many months have passed since I was summoned in this world?
Some day.
I had ate my dinner and I wasying on the bed.
This mansion was purchased with the money obtained in the ore collection quest from some days ago.
Yuuko the wraith spread some bad rumors about this ce.
We were able to purchase this mansion approximatly one tenth of its market price, because of its reputation about that the demons was settled there.
By the way, my actual state is the next one.

Thanks to Yuuko, the cute wraith girl, Iveobtained a lot of experience.
I noticed it in the same moment, but when I level up, its limited mostly when I use monster and Aphrodite.
Im d to be able to strength me in an efficient way, but is a bit disappointment dont be able to do it a serious way.
[Sou~~~~~uuuuuta!]
Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice.
Uho.
Are you what the heck are you doing here?
When I looked to the one who spoke, a beautiful girl in a bath towel came running toward me.
Her name is Aphrodite.
Aphrodite is blonde with blue eyes and has an outstanding style that can only have the self-proimed goddess of beauty, having an impable appearance.
In the heaven world, Aphrodite was the one who worked on sending humans to other worlds, but now, after some things, she is apanion whoe to adventures with us.
[Clench that teeths~~~~~~~!]
I dont know the circumstances, but Aphrodite looks pretty angry.
She tries to hit me with all her strengths.
[Yop.]
It was easy dodge Aphrodites strike, thanks status differences.
This goddess has her statistics lowered because the effect of curse that obtain the gods who descends to thend.
[Dodge!]
When I dodge her strike, Aphrodite hit hard her fist on the ground.
Nice job!
I can see a good angle.
Lets keep that her cute bath towel was turned, showing her ass a bit as a secret.
[Uhh? Why did you dodge it?!]
While Aphrodite adjust her loose towel again, she shows me teary eyes.
[To avoid the girls strikes Souta youre the worst!]
[Yeah, I was bad. Ill ask you what is happening hey, fix your mood.]
I cant even exin why Id apologize.
I felt that I understood her mind, as the man who apanied her but I was wrong.
[Dont say that to me! I know that was Souta who stolen it. I know!]
[What I stole?]
[My underwear! My underwear! Souta stole it while I was taking a bath, didnt you?]
[Wait, Ive not stolen anything!]
[You liar! There are only girls in this ce, you apart. Who else could take it?]
[Im serious, you can swear to God Ive only been lying in my room.]
[You swear to god Which its me. Then it must be truth.]
[]
By persistently persuading her, Aphrodite finally seemed to calm down.
Indeed, theyre all girls, except me, the ones who lives in this ce.
So I understand that they doubt me the first time underwear disappears abruptly.
[Oh, lets talk about this with the others, maybe they know something.]
[ Well, Im not really sure about Souta being the culprit, doesnt he? If its so, would you forgive me?]
Would you forgive me if Im honest?
I say it again; this goddess is too dumb in some ways.
Well, thats something about her that I cant hate.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Its because of that that Im looking for the culprit of the theft of Ds underwear, so please tell me if you known something that can be usefull.]
Then.
To bring the light about incidents truth, Ive gathered the girls in my room, having a gathering.
[Eh, was not Zouta-san who had been stealing our underwear?]
The name of the girl who make that question is Sheryl OTelrod. Sheryl has a small body of about 150 centimeters, and the cuteness of a pet.
[Hold a minute, Sheryl was also attacked by the underwear thief?]
[ Yes. Has been urring since we are living in this mansion.]
[Why dont you said that before?]
[ The truth is, I have my own reasons to fault Souta-san. From my point of view, he is the most suspicious.]
[]
What?
Apparently, it looks after I took advantage by Sheryls vulnerability, Im seen like a devil forcing her to do erotic things.
[Master, to tell truth, it happened to me some times.]
Carolina Burton is the name of the girl who report the theft after Sheryls.
Suspended silver hair is Carolinas style, with red eyes and a magical essence different from that of Aphrodite.
Carolina was born as a special race called Vampire, you would be surprised if you know that despite her appearance her age excesses the 300 years old.
[You too, Caro!?]
[Yes I thought it was the Master who was been giving them a good use, I let it pass because of that now that I know that the thief is someone else, my bloodlust is increasing.]
[]
What?
Apparently, Carolina see this as an annoyance due the thief is someone who get in sneaking on the night.
[You know, I cant think of anyone than Master doing this.]
Thats the wraith Yuuko who look at me like a scum, as ever.
This girl with her hair rolled up is positioned below Carolina, working as a servant in the mansion.
[Yeah, yeah, no matter what you think, you can only think of Souta as guilty.]
[In the Zouta-sans case the way he behaves iz terrible.]
[Master, if its you who steal my underwear, Ill never look down on you. Ill give you all of them if you want to.]
Apparently, my persuasion doesnt have any effect on them.
Damn it!
These girls are synchronized whith each other They treat me like an animal!
[Im certainly interested in erotic things! I wont deny that, but I never could be an cute underwear thief if I do something lewd Ill be louder and worthy!]
[[[[Ah.]]]]
The four girls who listened my words had a strangely convinced face.
That was good.
It seems the doubt has been cleared up.
Anyway isnt bad that they were convinced with that?
These four girls how did they see me?
Its been a long time, hasnt it?
I dont know how much time this is going to be up, but is something.
Im still having grammar errors, but if you help me pointing them, I would be happy to read you. Plus, this time Im going to be careful with the trantions, to avoid past errors.
I know I said I never would be here again, but meh Here I am.
Anyway, thanks for read.
Chapter 75
That night.
I was working on the trap preparation to repel the underwear thief.
[Hey, why do you are taking them of me?!]
Right now.
Aphrodite was trying to stay away her panties from the monster known as firefox I just summoned.
Indeed, it was soon to summon a goblin knight, so I used the foxes who could smell any intruder.
Its strange that just been out, the foxes try to take off the girls panties whatever.
[Leave it, this is to catch the underwear thief. Be patient.]
[Wow I understand that but, why my panties?! Werent any other girl avable?!]
[There is no other girl so beautiful as D, then its not reasonable to think that the criminal could want to steal preferably the pretty underwears of a girl like you?]
[Eh? What?]
Oh.
Thats very effective.
I noticed recently that Aphrodite is not very used to me praising her appearance, its a small habit from the self-proimed goddess of beauty.
Asking her something, if you praise her appearance, the sess rate will increase.
[Please, D! I can only trust a person so great as you! Help me get the underwear back!]
When I looked her, I notice because of her expressions that she was in a very high spirit.
[Heh It cant be helped, I have the need to cooperate if you ask me that way.]
Thanks for give me the expected answer!
If you raise her ego a bit, shell say yes to most things.
This goddess is truly dumb.
Aphrodite said: Its very embarrassing, please turn back. She order me, putting the newly removed underwear on the right ce.
This conclude the preparations.
[ Do you really think that you can capture the underwear thief using thiz trap?]
In contrast to the simple-thinking goddess, Sheryl is quite cautious.
[I dont think Itd a problem, most likely the culprit is one of the ghouls working at the mansion.]
[How can you be zo zure?]
I decided give Sheryl an exnation about my reasons.
There is just one reason due I think the guilty is a ghoul.
And that reason is because theyre been guarding the mansion the whole time.
Originally, this property belonged to Yuuko, and was guarded by her guardians so that no suspicious person could approach her.
Although it can be sessful once or twice, also it can be said that is impossible for an invader toe into the mansion usually.
Then, its reasonably to think that is an internal crime from someone who could be freely wandering around the mansion.
[Indeed the culprit zhould be someone grotezque without doubt the probability iz very high.]
Sheryl, who listened my words, shook her head and epted my reasoning.
Regard Yuukos words, ghouls havent sexual desire, but his nature seems to be strongly rooted in memories of when they were alive.
[But then, it doesnt have to use newly used underwear Why not look for newly purchased underwear?]
[Haa you just dont understand a mans hearth]
To men, newly purchased underwear is just a cloth.
The true underwears value will only appear after a beautiful girl wear it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Then.
We were watching the room during near two hours.
Suddenly, a small figure entered the room.
Cap Rat | Grade G | 1/5
Vitality: 15
Strength: 5
Magic Power: 5
Mana: 1
Skills:
None
[Whats that? Is that a skillet lid?]
Objects length is near of 15 centimeters.
The creature had a big head. It appearance is the same as a cartoon character.
For some reason, the creature in front of me had a skillet lid on its head.
[Iz that a cap rat?]
[Do you know what is that thing?]
[Yez cap rats are monzter settled mostly on abandoned houzes. Theyre almozt harmless, but they have a habit of alwayz carrying something on their heads.]
[I see, so it was that.]
This may not be the first time shes seen wild monsters in the town.
The cap rat entered the room, wandering around.
Its stops finally in front Aphrodites panties.
[Hey no way!]
I see. I understand now!
Now I was able to identify the true guilty in this incident.
The cap rat removes the lid from its head, recing it with the panties that we left there before.
[A pervert!?]
I cant stop myself crying unwilling.
The figure of a big rat carrying panties on its head was something surrealistic.
[Zouta-san! Lets caught it quickly!
[Understood!]
After we were crimes witness, we opened the window and entered the first floors room.
[Go, Capsule Ball!]
I threw a capsule ball, which can beat the cap rat in one blow.
However, there was a problem.
The cap rat is smaller and faster than other monster.
Ive threw balls several times from the beginning, but none of them shows any sign of even being able to hit it.
[Shit! This rat is too fast!]
[Zouta-san! The cap rat is running to the outside!]
[Youre not going to scape!]
Maybe this was myst chance.
I throw the ball toward the rat who tries to scape trough the windows.
Good, perfect pitch!
The ball I threw hit straight the rats head scaping from a straight line.
[Good!]
However.
Something sudden happened.
Some way, the cap rat continue to run toward the back of the garden not captured by the ball I threw.
[ Huh? Didnt the strike hit it?]
[Oh. Indeed, I guess that happened.]
What the heck is happening?
Dont mind if its a god nor a demon.
My Capsule ball has the effect to capture 100% at times when hits.
It was the first time a monster cant be caught although the ball doesnt hit.
[ Thats right! This is it!]
When I looked the ball, I understood everything.
In other words, the ball thrown had hit the object above the cap rats head.
I could confirm that the light blue panties that Aphrodite had worn before were now inside the ball.
[Zouta-san, you should return that underwear to Aphrodite-san!]
[Sheryl, forgot all what you saw, understood?]
[Thats zomething bad! Is the same thing than the cap rat!]
[Indeed it could be that always have been a real underwear thief in my heart.]
[Er okey]
I was originally subjected to unfair treatment when Aphrodite was in the bath towel.
Id be nice if could have thispensation.
(TN: Fair enough, I think.)
Anyway, I can only say one thing.
Goddess panties get!
Chapter 76
Chloe Grice
Race: Cait Sith
Age: 18
[Congrattions! After a careful deliberation Souta-sans adventurer rank has been promoted to D!]
When we arrive to the guild, the receptionist Chloe said that words.
Receptionist Chloe is a beautiful high-rank girl with a small body and semi-long ck hair.
From the upper part of her head, that cat-ears of her looks so cute.
[Eh? that is something good to me, isnt?]
Not too much time ago I was F rank, so probably Im a little better now, but Im still feeling that I havent progressed anything.
There are eight ranks from S to G, been D still lowparing it with the others.
[Naturally! Ive been doing this job for a long time, but Ive never saw someone to be promoted two ranks at once.
As guild, they seems to have appreciated Souta-sans sessful in ore collection quests.]
[Is that so?]
Its a good thing my adventurer rank rises anyway.
As my rank increases, the types of quest we can choose will increase ordingly.
As Chloes words, adventurers ranked from D to B seems to be at most popr medium ranked.
Indeed, you could say if you have a steady pace, you can reach the medium rank in a few months after bing an adventurer.
[These are the new quest that you can request, I organized and put them in a file.]
[Wow, its very thick, isnt?]
[Sorry, but this time you can request two at once, because its a hard time to organize the documents.]
When I received the file from Chloe, I sat on the guild bench, determined to look for the days work.
Well, well.
What should I choose?
I still having enough money from the ore collecting quest, so that doesnt mind me.
I dont want to rush to elevate my adventurer rank.
As Im an impatient one, this time Ill choose some job 100% as hobby.
~~~~~~~~~~~
[ Hey, Souta! What kind of quest did you choose at the end?]
[I thought of several, but today I chose going to the Ryuzoku Range[1]]
[Ryuzoku Range! Iz not that a dangerous ce where appears dragon races monzters?]
Sheryl, who listened my idea, let out a voice which seems to be about crying.
[Theyre dangerous?]
[Naturally! Dragon race have abat power that may be the strongezt among all monster! Have you forgotten the fight against the cockatrice?]
[I remember, thats why I thought Itd worth to go.]
The cockatrice we have met before was certainly a strong foe beyond expectations.
I didnt feelfortable, as the breath of mes shooting from his mouth was quite intense.
Heheh.
But I have the ability that my chance of capture is 100% of capturing any monster I throw a Capsule Ball at.
Battling against dragons could be dangerous, but the stronger is the enemy, the greater the reward.
[This is wrong! Youre not acting like Souta. Youre almost always a chicken that doesnt go to the next map unless youve leveled up your team like an RPG!]
[ I must be agreeing with Aphrodite-san. Why the change in your usual behavior, Master?]
Ive certainly been progressing in quest in a careful way rather than a little more recklessly. Im stepping bit by bit the brigde instead of You cant make an omelette without breaking eggs.
Its logical that these two girls ask themselves about the change.
[A dragon is a mans romance! Ill be free to handle the great dragon as I wish! My heart started to warm just imaging it!]
If its possible, Id like to tame a real dragon, not a weird one like cockatrice.
Even if you say dragon, theres several kinds.
Personally, I prefer a Western-style lizard design rather than an Oriental snake type.
A lot of heads. With a lot of heads would be pretty neat, because it would impose a frightening atmosphere.
[[[..]]]
Maybe my exnation impressed them?
Three beautiful girls was watching me like they were seeing a freak.
[1]Flying Dragons Range.
Chapter 77
Then.
I decided for todays expedition wed walking in the opposite direction to our destination.
[Whats wrong, Souta-san? This isnt the way to Ryuzoku range.]
[Yeah, I know it. Were going to catch a dragon, but Im thinking of get prepare ourselves properly.]
ording to the guide received from the guild, theres a lot of Fire Magic specialized monsters, including dragons, in the Ryuzoku range.
I think Im a trained yer.
Theres no reason to neglect security measures, since we know the enemy. We must rece our equipment with strong equipment against said magic of that attribute.
Guild-Authorized General Store.
That I thought, so I decided to go to the general store I visited before.
Edgar Marton
Sex: Male
Age: 31
[Wee. Wee to the Official Guild General Store.]
When I entered the store, a fashionable, small height, middle-age man appeared, greeting to me.
ording the information that chloe gave me.
Guild General Store can be called like a store where you can find everything, since gather goods of any kind, useful for adventurers.
[Customer-sama, what kind of product are you looking for today?]
[Er, do you have any armor thats resistant to fire attacks?]
[Sure, of course! Wait a minute.]
After while for a bit, Edgar-san took a big box from the back of the store.]
Fire Fairy Clothes | Grade D
(Clothing that has received the blessing of a fire fairy, with excellent fire resistance.)
What was inside the box, was lightly different to the attribute armor that Ive imagined.
[Oh, these Fire Fairy Clothes are really effective?]
[Of course. This is a guild authorized general store, you can be sure that is not a trick to deceive customers.]
[.]
Edgar-sans attitude likes me.
My eyes of judgment back up his words, so theres no way hell fool me.
But.
I have just one thing to say.
Why the fabric of this clothes is so little?
Regard design is the same than a Bikini back on my world.
If skin is so exposed, is probably that the risk burn injury is likely to increase rather than decrease.
(TN: Just RPG games logic.)
[Hey Caro, do you think that this gear is truly effective?]
[Yes. Its true that gives a insecurity felt from its appearance, but the most important is that you are receiving a Fire Fairys blessing. The risk of being deceived by a bastard is lower in this guild authorized general store.]
I see.
Is this bikini same than an armor?
The Defensive Power in the world of games in not determined by the fabric-covered area.
In some cases, the protection of bikini armor equipment may be better than a sturdy armor.
[Wow! They have a lot of nice clothes! Hey Souta! Can I take some of these clothes?]
[I want to buy one of theze by all means! My work as ckzmith is dangerous due burn injuries. These clothes will make the work go fazter!]
Aphrodite and Sheryl, which were looking at the various designs of Fire Fairy Clothes that were in the box, had their eyes shining with excitement.
Alright.
Is it okay, even if the girls dont mind it?
Incidentally, the high degree of exposure of the Clothes against fire is only in the designs for women, while that for men was verymon.
I still feel a little strange about all this, but as long as it works, I dont think we should worry.
Chapter 78
Hiryuu Range
We finally arrived at our destination: Hiryuu Range
Since it would have taken us about half a day to get there from Saint Bell, we decided to use a Turtle Car, which is a carriage pulled by Rock Turtles instead of horses, so we could get there faster.
I think they were able to reach a speed of about 25 miles per hour.
The trip was less bumpy than I had imagined, and was indeed quite pleasant.
But its only problem was its cost.
The fare was a shocking 5,000 Col.
A round trip would cost us a whopping 10,000 Col.
The driver would only be able to wait for us for one day while we were out there exploring.
Given the risk of being attacked by monsters before reaching our destination, we wouldnt be able to do business without conceding that much.
With that in mind, this wouldnt pay off unless we managed to take a cool dragon back home with us no matter what it takes
Ooh! So this is the Hiryuu Range?
White smoke wasing out of the exposed rock at the top of the mountain.
By the way, this part of the Hiryuu Range apparently has an active volcano that erupts every 10 years or so.
I have never seen such a vigorous volcano when I was in Japan, so I was naturally filled with excitement.
Uhh~. I tried changing into the Fire Fairy Clothes, but how do I look?
Ah Um, lets see I guess it really suits you?
Pff haha! What? Whats with that kind of answer? I wonder if my charming body is too stimting for you, Souta
Crap!
The fact that its not really a problem makes it even more frustrating!
Aphrodite already had a bombshell of a body, so much that it can make any man lose their mind, but it seemed like those Fire Fairy Clothes she was wearing were making it even worse or better.
No matter how you look at it, I was in no shape to be climbing any volcanoes.
Her huge breasts were already too much to handle under normal circumstances, but they were so highlighted by the new clothes that I felt like I was going to lose it.
Thank you so much for the new armor! Ill make sure to put it to good use.
Uhhh Now that I look at it Im a bit embarrassed to show this to you, Souta
When I summoned Carolina and Cielle from the ball, the two of them had already changed into the Fire Fairy Clothes.
Both of them were wearing jackets and trousers in order to avoid showing too much skin, but yeah. Definitely too sexy for just adventuring.
Come on, Souta! Lets go! Now that I think about it, Ive never seen a dragon before. Im looking forward to seeing what it looks like!
Yeah, lets go.
Aphrodite started climbing the mountain, and I followed right behind her tender butt.
Easy, easy now.
There was no time to be charmed with the three of them.
After all, if we didnt return by sunset, the Turtle Car would charge us a cancetion fee and we would have to return to the city on foot.
So we had a time limit toplete this mission due to our means of transportation.
Chapter 79
[I got tired Souta Lets stop for a while.]
[Oh, I think we can rest.]
Apparently, weve already seen part of the Ryuzoku Mountain area.
Although I was nning to walk quite a bit, when I see the peak from where we are, the distance weve traveled is about 1/5 of the mountain.
No matter how much I think about it, its impossible to explore everything in one day.
It seems that it will be better to bring camping supplies for the next time youe.
[Master, the food is ready.]
[Thank you, Caro.]
After a while, Carolina spread a nket on the ground and made tea.
Weve been walking since morning, so I can feel that the sandwiches made by Carolina taste much more delicious.
It was right after we started to get the feeling of being on a pic, when it happened.
[Why is that rock falling over here?]
Magma Rock | Grade G | NV 4/5
Vitality: 2
Strength: 8
Magic: 33
Mana: 2
Skills:
Fire Magic (Beginner)
At first, I thought there was a rockslide, but it seems thats not all.
Its a face!
Looking closely, theres something that looks like a face on the rock surface!
It was a rock monster, about 12 inches in diameter, that was suddenly rolling towards us.
[Souta-san, we should go!]
The one who shouted was Sheryl, the mineral maniac, who first supported this excursion.
Its strange.
If youre a mineral lover, I think this is a scene where youd like to see the monster as close as possible.
[Is something wrong?]
[Its a Magma Rock, its a dangerous monster, its better to leave as soon as possible.]
[Wait a minute, is that Magma Rock such a strong monster?]
Theres only one enemy.
And from what I can see, his stats are below the Lizardman.
His body seems to be small, and he doesnt seem to be a monster thats particrly threatening.
[No. Their fighting ability is not much, but Magma Rock has a habit of exploding if it feels threatened.]
[A suicide bomber?!]
[Exactly, and its quite painful! Adventurers who approach them thinking they can beat them easily, end up getting seriously injured.]
[]
Ouch.
Such a monster with a self-destructive skill No doubt, its a ssic in the world of RPG games, as its a widely used element.
Its hard to use if its on your side, but its much more annoying when you have it as an enemy.
Its a sad existence that brings with it the fate of bing a hated person in any game it appears.
[Wait a minute! We dont have to run away.]
You What the hell are you doing?
Im trying to run away while holding a sandwich.
Aphrodite remained quite calm, sittingfortably in the path of the Magma Rock.
[The rock that can be extracted from the body of Magma Rock is light and strong! It also has the property of always being kept at a constant temperature. Ive heard that it can even be used in ce of cushion As a napping enthusiast, I cant pass up this opportunity.]
Unbelievable, Aphrodite!
Your attitude right now is really amazing.
Id like to learn about your behavior today.
[Suko!]
The Magma Rock attack began by being close to her.
The Magma Rock leans towards Aphrodite, trying to give her a little bit of a tackle.
However.
Despite the speed that Magma Rocks body had, it seems that it did not damage Aphroditesrge breasts, shaking them with only a poyopoy sound.
[Ha! It doesnt hurt at all. Souta is being too fearful.]
A breast shield really something to fear.
With Aphroditesrge breasts, is it possible to easily evade such lower level monster attacks?
[Well, since Im catching you, let Souta get you in the ball as soon as possible.]
[ Ah]
Girls sometimes theyre weird, but they do a good job!
Aphrodite hugged her body tightly to the Magma Rock to seal her movements.
Its simply stands still, as if it was already resigned to this.
I guess now I must capture him.
[ Is it about to explode?! Release the Magma Rock carefully!]
However.
My thoughts were clouded by Sheryls scream.
What?!
So far, itsve felt the dangers of Aphrodites body?
Suddenly, the body of the Magma Rock gradually changed to a dark red color.
[Kyaaaaaaa! Here, take it Souta! Get it!]
And the worst thing happened.
What was this goddess thinking of throwing Magma Rock at me?!
[Waaaaaaaaaa!]
Is this goddess an idiot or what?
I grabbed him as fast as I could but what do you want me to do now?
Even if I tried to catch him with the Capsule Ball, I have both hands full and its impossible to throw it.
However, I cant let go of the Magma Rock.
It has an aura around it that looks like it could explode as soon as it receives a stimulus.
Oh, this is it.
Impletely dead.
Even grade G monsters can kill you I should have anticipated that.
Aah.
At least I wouldve liked to have graduated from virgin
Since I was summoned to a different world, although I had some opportunities, it ended up bing a life of remorse in various ways.
[Sukooooo!]
With a shout, the Magma Rock begins its suicide attack.
I see.
So, its true that when youre about to die everything looks very slow.
As I predicted, I could see the exact moment the temperature of Magma Rock rose suddenly, as well as the moment it broke into hundreds of pieces.
[ Master, arent you hurt?]
What are you saying?
Huh? Whats this all about?
As I felt the air around me get cold, the Magma Rock in my arms was locked in an ice dome, deformed by the explosion.
[You mean you did this, Caro?]
[Yes, at the time of the explosion I used magic to lock up the body of the Magma Rock, so it seems theres no danger anymore.]
[]
Carolina is great!
If Im in trouble, I can trust her to save me from any trouble.
I havent felt as happy living as I do now.
[Sorry, sorry, I didnt expect it to blow up just by holding it.]
[Its certainly a funny thing. When did Magma Rock feel danger?]
I know now.
Magma Rock just before it exploded had a satisfied expression on its face.
Maybe It was because Aphrodites breasts are too big, and the Magma Rock was being choked to death by them. Suffocate between a womans breasts is one of the causes of death that any man longs for.
Chapter 80
About an hour has passed since the battle with Magma Rock.
As before, we continued to climb the mountain without finding a dragon.
[Souta-san, if we dont return soon the turtle vehicle will be gone.]
[I know.]
Although going down will be easier than going up, the time we can use to explore is very short, even if we take that into consideration.
Shit
Aphrodite seems happy to get the fragments of Magma Rock, but Im not happy at all.
It is too ufortable for me that the only thing I managed to capture was Lizardmen, even though they are quite a lot.
Nothing.
Theres nothing else?
Right now, it doesnt have to be a dragon.
If I get a good catch thats worth the trip, I could descend right back home.
[What is that?]
When I was considering that.
We could see some buildings made of wood in the middle of the mountain.
Is it a resting ce for adventurers? I thought about it, but it seems quite strange.
The hut had a strange shape that would make you think: A witch lives there?
[Oooooh! This is amazing!]
Sheryl, who suddenly raised her voice, started running towards the hut.
[Did you see anything, Sheryl?]
[This hut is amazing! Everything in it is a craft made by a series of advanced techniques! Its bad to have it on this mountain! It feels like the spirit of the craftsmen is slowly dying!]
[Oh, I see.]
Is that bad?
Sheryl, who had her eyes glowing, looked as excited as she did at the mineral collecting quest.
Sheryl, who was very much into her hobby, entered the hut without thinking.
[It looks like the door is open Hey Souta, lets take a break, I feel very tired.]
[Yes, I was thinking the same thing Weve walked quite a bit; I feel my feet could go numb.]
Then, lets take a short break at the hut and then continue on our way.
Weve found a rather strange hut, but everyone seems to be happy and this ce looks quite peaceful.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Wow, this is amazing]
When we entered the hut, a pile of empty bottles that filled the floor jumped into my field of vision.
[A couch! Theres a couch! Fuu~ Its really fluffy! With this, I can survive]
[]
I still think its strange.
Theres evidence that someone lived in this hut until recently.
If so, who was it? Why?
I wonder if they really live here, in such a remote ce.
[ Dont move, Im a demon hunter.]
Shortly after I had that doubt.
A womans voice echoed across the room.
Rikku Gerbert
Race: Gnome
Age: 23
When I looked at the person who spoke, there was a woman wearing a hood.
She looked at us with a knife in Carolinas neck.
[Caro?!]
I cant believe it.
No way Carolina can be in that situation!
No, did she just say shes a Demon Hunter?
Why would she discover Carolinas identity?
I thought only gods like Aphrodite could discover the human disguise that Caroline wore.
[Other human beings, why?! Why are you working with demons if youre humans?]
The hooded woman asks angrily.
To be exact, a goddess is with us too, but Ill keep quiet as that would make things much more confusing.
[That voice Is that you, teacher?]
[She-Sheryl! Why are you here?]
The woman named Rikku saw Sheryl, showing a surprised expression, removed her hood.
Teacher?!
Now that I remember, Ive heard of her before.
Sheryls teacher is a great cksmith and adventurer, and it was said that she disappeared two years ago when she was on her way to a demon subjugation quest.
Originally, Sheryl began to apany us on our journey as a purpose to find her teacher.
[ Ill exin everything right now, so why you dont let go of our partner for a moment?]
[]
When I tried to persuade Rikku, she reluctantly sheathed her knife.
Good, good.
Where should I start from?
Of course, I thought of not telling her all the things that have happened, but its still risky for her to think Im lying to her. So, I decided to exin what happened to this day in an honest way.
Chapter 81
[Oh, all that happened?]
I decided to exin to Rikku several things that happened to us.
Of course, I cant tell her everything, so I told some lies.
First of all, I dont know anyone but Aphrodite, of course since I was summoned to this world.
[Souta-kun, first I must say thank you. Thank you for saving Sheryl. She wasnt supposed to do something like that while I was away from Saint Bell]
[No. We both benefit from having saved her, so its okay.]
Originally, Sheryl and I met when ve traders were collecting her parents debts.
Rikku-san seemed sad, thinking she was responsible for Sheryl falling into such a dilemma.
[ Thats why you are been apanied by a monster, Carolina, who was trapped in Bakurajas shop.]
[Thats right, Caro isnt an evil demon like you think, Rikku-san!]
[Hmm Ive certainly heard very bad rumors about Bakuraja, your brave behavior ismendable.]
It was good.
Persuading her with my words, it seems that Rikku-san has believed what I said.
It seems I was able to hide what I wanted properly.
But soon after I calmed my heart down.
[But its a shame no matter what the circumstances, I cant let a demon go.]
[What?!]
Rikku-san pulled a twin sword from his waist and jumped towards Carolina.
Carolina, who was surprised, quickly took up a fighting position, repelling Rikku-san.
[Wow! Unlike before, you have a great speed of reaction! But your friends made me back off earlier anyway!]
[Rikku-san Why?]
[Souta-kun, youremitting a misunderstanding, there are no good demons in this world, shes just deceiving on you!]
[]
No!
Rikku-san is wrong.
I do not believe Carolina is an evil demon.
If Carolina was really an evil demon, she would have killed me for using her before.
[Now I know! Because of the way you fight Youre a veteran demon of the Demon Lords army! Right?]
[Caro is not like Rikku-san thinks!]
A veteran demon of the Demon Lords army?
Thats not true!
The gentle Caroline I know couldnt cooperate with an organization as terrible as the Demon Lords army.
Im sure Rikku-san is in a misunderstanding.
[Master, please stay back. Theres no point in saying that to someone who hates demons.]
[ I understand.]
Im going to trust Carolina as far as I can.
Thats why I decided to keep quiet to watch the two of them fight.
[Hmm, its a pretty strong attack for a human.]
I also noticed what Carolina said.
Rikku-san skillfully maniptes the two swords she has, even if youpare her to another human.
I who got a goddess and gained a lot of experience, my speed statistics could be on par with Rikku-san.
[Kuu. Reduce!]
[A good move, I must pay my respects to you so I will fight seriously]
She stated immediately after Carolina attacked.
A pair of bat wings grew on her back, while tworge fangs poked out of her mouth.
Vampire | S Grade | LV 173
Vitality 1732
Strength 1240
Magic 1520
Mana 1428
Skills
Fire Magic (Advanced), Wind Magic (Advanced), Water Magic (Advanced)
Dark Magic (Advanced), Light Magic (Intermediate)
What was in front of me was someone who has abandoned his human form: Carolina has be a vampire.
In conclusion, the fierce fight between those two people will be really serious.
Carolinas fist, which was in vampire mode, hit Rikkus side.
[Gutsu!]
Apparently, Carolinas punch that exceeds 1000 in strength seems to have an unimaginable power.
[R-Rikku-san?]
Its too much!
Did she die from a blow?!
Rikku-san, who was attacked by Carolina, seemed to be in a daze, as well as having blooding out of her mouth.
[Dont worry, I extended my hand at the moment of impact so as not to kill her.]
[Well, thats okay, I think thats good.]
[But If you leave her as she is, she will lose her life in less than an hour because of the bleeding.]
[Thats not good at all!]
Carolina doesnt care at all about people other than me.
[Hey, Caro, can you use your magic to heal Rikku-sans wound?]
[Please, I must find out what she has! Certainly, my teacher is someone amazing But for her to hate demons so much, there must be something happened!]
[I understand. I will take immediate action.]
I assumed that she had predicted this situation.
When I convinced Carolina, she worked on Rikku-sans treatment quickly. That way, we decided to wait for Rikku-sans wound to heal.
Chapter 82
[Hmmm]
So.
It took about 10 minutes or so.
After her wound was closed, Rikku-san was slowly opening his eyes.
[Well it seems I was defeated, and its quiteughable to have received medical treatment from your demonpanion.]
Rikku-san, who was aware that she had been treated by Caroline, was showing a distressed smile.
[Uhm Can I ask you what happened?]
[Huh? What do you mean?]
[Why does Rikku-san hate demons? I heard from Sheryll that you didnt have such hostility towards them before, right?]
[Yeah Thats no longer true, let me tell you a story.]
So, I received from Rikku-san several stories about demons.
[On a certain day, an adventurer from the city of Saint Bell waspleting his mission, chasing a certain demon. Iter learned that that demons name was Dragon Empress Kururu. It seems that she was the former division chief of the Demon Lords army.]
[ Eh?]
Is it my idea?
Carolinas expression changed quite a bit when she heard Kururus name.
[Kururu was the worst demon. Shee created famines, set small towns on fire and devoured people, killing everyone she saw. I was part of one of the six teams of Grade A adventurers, who went to the mission of subjugation of Kururu It was unexpectedly fun. We all were getting along very well. We were sharing adventures from the moment the mission started We were joking together.]
This is really shocking.
Rikku-sans voice trembled as her exnation went on.
[Kururu no longer exists, but the remains of her demon army are scattered all over the world, tormenting humans, so I decided to act as a Demon Hunter to clear the grief of mypanions. It was at the same time that I left the town of Saint Bell and separated from Sheryl. I know it was bad for Sheryl, I think that was my worst decision ever. I just left the town without telling anyone.]
[Was it like that?]
I didnt know.
If there are good people who are rted to the Demon Lord army like Carolina and Yuuko, there must also be abominable beings.
If a friend important to me had been killed, I could have taken the same steps as Rikku-san.
(NT: Nowhere in the trantion does it specifically say that someone dies, but from Rikkus reaction, you can tell).
[ Then why is Rikku-san in the Ryuzoku Mountain range? Is there something rted to the Demon Hunters in the area?]
[Thats right, I heard that people from the Ryuo Onna Kururu group came here, going in and out of the Ryuzoku mountain range, so Im building a base in various parts of the mountain and chasing their whereabouts. Thats it.]
[!]
I see.
What she told us is connected to this.
Sheryl was impressed with the design of the hut because it was made by her teacher.
[Master, I understand theres a lot to hear, but its time to go down the mountain range.]
[Wow! So fast?]
This could have been dangerous!
Ipletely forgot about the time.
Theres currently a driver waiting for us at the foot of the mountain in his turtle car.
If we left him there, spending more than half a day, he would return to the town of Saint Bell and leave us here.
[Rikku-san, I wille here again very soon.]
[ I see, you have a turtle car waiting down there, so please take this with you.]
ss A | Instant Death Ring
(Ring that prevents deadly damage, its effect is activated once a day)
Then Rikku-san handed it to me, it was the first time Id seen a Grade A item.
[This is!]
[Going on an adventure is a dangerous thing, could you give it to Sheryl? It was a payment from the guild for fighting the enemy army Its a really expensive piece of equipment, but Im not interested in it right now.]
I see.
Rikku-san is thinking of her disciple.
Certainly, Sheryls condition is the lowest among us.
With this equipment, we could reduce the risk of great harm to her.
[Im nning to stay in the Ryuzoku mountain range for about six months, will you tell me if you hear any information about the Dragon Empress?]
[Okay, Ill be back to inform you if I hear anything.]
I dont know if it was a good choice toe to the Ryuzoku Mountain Range. I didnt get to meet the dragon I was expecting, but I think I got some unexpected things out of this expedition.
Chapter 83
[Fuh~ Im exhausted.]
After many things, I finally returned to the mansion.
Even though we rushed down the mountain, we were a littlete in terms of the time set and were given a surcharge.
Im d he finally let us ride to go back, but from next time Ill have to figure out how not to spend so much money.

The only monsters I have this time are these four Lizardmen.
I havent been able to get the dragon I want, but What would be the result ofbining them?
I selected Lizardman as the base monster, and then I selected Lizardman as the material.
So what wille of this?

The status of the Lizard Lancer was disyed on the screen.
As there are limitations on the amount of demons I can use, the synthesizable monsters must be synthesized two at a time.
Theres no reason not to synthesize them!
At the next moment, when I pressed Yes in the system message.
The two Lizardman were enveloped in light, finally creating a new monster.
[Kupo~!]
(He created a moguri)
Um Did they really evolve?
The new monster that appeared before me was looking at the two Lizardman with curiosity.
No.
The color of its skin differs slightly when you look closely.
Its eyes were strangely pretty even though they were lost and kept tearing up.
Its a freaking annoying feeling, its like watching a 2P demon, which is just a variation of the 1P with another color.
Hehe.
Well, I wont worry about the Lizard Lancers for now.
What Im looking forward to isbine two Lizard Lancers
ording to the general exnation, Lizard Lancer seems to be able to evolve.
Maybe Maybe I can get a cool dragon.

Growing wings on the Lizardmans body may be the final step of my dream of having a dragon.
Theres no reason not to try it!
The next moment I pressed Yes on the system message.
The two Lizards Lancer were enveloped in a strong light,bining into a new monster.
[Kupo~!]
Damn it!
I never thought this woulde out!
The Lizard Wings appearance doesnt feel any different from the Lizardmans.
Only the two wings that grew on his back are really wonderful, but theres really no other point that shows his evolution.
Did the design manager have a lot of work to do?
If this were a game, I would really think that the person in charge of this was tired.
Damn it.
I couldnt reach my goal despite going to the Ryuzoku Mountain Range. Apparently, the road to get a dragon will still be very long.
Chapter 84
After I finished the synthesis, it was time for dinner.
When I arrived at the mansion a little sweaty, I decided to join the others in the living room.
[Hey, Caro! Whats going on?]
Aphrodites angry cries echoed down the hall.
[Im hungry, but I cant be satisfied with just this.]
Aphrodites argument was actually correct.
Carolina always prepared pretty delicious dishes, but todays dish was mostly leftovers from yesterday and had less vor.
Although Aphrodite had nothing toin about, since she spent all day sleeping on the ball.
[Actually, Id like to know why todays dinner seems a bit sparse.]
[ Im sorry, Im sorry about that, but its hard to make time with all my homework.]
Carolina is not doing anything wrong if you think about it.
The truth is quite terrible that Carolina, who is working with us on our adventures, returns to the mansion and has to work.
This is wrong.
If this continues, the burden will exceed Carolina.
If Carolina gets overworked, our group will surely be destroyed.
[Hey, why dont you give the kitchen job to Yuuko?]
[Well, thats because]
[It would be quite difficult, because a maids apprentice like Yuuko wasnt even allowed into the kitchen before.]
Is that the case?
In the ce where they worked before, Carolina was the service manager, while Yuuko seemed just to work in the organization.
Even so, not even being able to enter the kitchen They really were in a very hard ce of work.
[What about Sheryl?]
[Sorry, but Even though I can do cksmithing work, Im not really good at housework.]
[Is that so?]
I guess I expected that.
A person who has always been in a closed environment, focused on his own hobby, doesnt have the image of someone who is good at domestic affairs.
[No one in this group, besides Carolina, can cook.]
This is a serious matter.
How can this be?
[Wait a bit, Souta! Why didnt you ask me? Dont you think I could be a good cook?]
[Have you cooked before?]
[Naturally not! The goddess of beauty doesnt need skills such as cooking!]
[Yeah, thats why I didnt ask you.]
Thank you for such an obvious answer!
Ignoring Aphrodite for the moment, we proceeded with the discussion.
[So why dont we hire someone?]
They mean a housekeeper.
Fortunately, we have over 10 million in money thanks to the mineral collection quest.
We have enough money for this; maybe we can hire someone to do the housework.
[It could be a risk for us. There are many things we have to keep secret and inviting strangers could cause everything toe out.]
[ Certainly Its difficult to find reliable people.]
[How about buying a ve?]
[Huh?]
Huh? What? Whats wrong?
Do I hear a bad idea?
Please give it up immediately!
[It can be surprisingly useful, plus there would be no risk of our information leaking out.]
[Surely, if its a ve, well be able to reduce the risk. And if they can help with the cleanup, it would be a great help to me.]
I cant find a reason to object.
Why didnt I think of that before?
Buying a ve in this different world might be a good idea!
My goal in this world is to get beautiful girls of different races and take them to my world.
If I use the ve system well, it must be a shortcut to achieve my goal. After hearing Yuukos idea about buying ves, I spent the whole night with a strong sense of excitement.
Chapter 85
The next day.
I headed to the town of Saint Bell to achieve my goal of getting a beautiful ve girl.
[ So why did youe with me?]
Next to me was the beautiful figure of Aphrodite wearing clothes to go out.
For our ve, I want to carefully and meticulously choose a girl that matches my fantasy.
I convinced the other members that (I wanted to go alone) not to interfere.
For some reason, Aphrodite just didnt walk away from me with stubbornness.
[Its normal to me toe! Youre going to a ve shop alone I can feel the danger.]
[Why? Maybe youre worried someone will attack me? Dont worry about that, you cane back.]
[Dont you think youre misunderstanding? Of course, I wouldnt worry about that!]
[So, what are you worried about?]
When I ask her, somehow Aphrodite turns her face away.
[Whatever happens, Ill get a beautiful ve and do something erotic to her, Isnt that what Souta thinks?]
[Wow! But thats not all.]
[Are you aiming at a ve harem with 100 beautiful girls? Let me tell you something I absolutely cannot ept that such a thing happens in front of my eyes!]
[]
Even if I deny it with my mouth, youve really read my mind.
This goddess Why will she bepetent only when its inconvenient for me?
[Oh, Souta, arent the funds youre about to use the ones we all get by working with the sweat of our brow?]
[I know, but I can find one person who can do the housework by myself.]
[I wonder if its true, I wont let you be influenced by personal desires in this!]
Damn it.
I feel like Ive just been beaten up
Its gonna be harder and harder to do what I want on my own.
So, whatever happens Ill find a pretty ve who knows how to do all kinds of housework.
Aphrodite wont be able to do anything if I make a harem out of pretty ves who can do all the housework.
[Hey Did you hear? What theyre saying now about Bakurajas business.]
[Oh, I know, it seems the business performance has been growing considerably since its founder disappeared.]
[A rumor has it that the new leader has changed a lot, hes quite a hard worker.]
[Its a good shop, I wish my shop had the status of Bakurajas business.]
Talking around the city.
The conversation of two people who seem to be merchants came to my attention.
Bakurajas business is was apany that had problems with us before.
A man named Bakuraja Ackerman, who was quite unpleasant, was transformed into a Werewolf with my ability tobine demons, and now he is working for me.
[. Now that I think about it, Bakurajas business was ve trading.]
I decided to visit Bakurajas business today, since its just what we were looking for. I wonder what happened to his business after the boss went away I was quite curious to find out what happened.
Chapter 86
Wh-What is this?!
So, after 30 minutes.
When I finally entered the Bakuraja ve Trading House building, there was a spectacr scene in front of me.
Casino.
Its a casino.
There was an entertaining gaming center, which could only be described as a casino,ing into our view, although we should only have entered the ve paradise.
Poker, bingo, slots, roulette etc.
All those popr games were in this casino.
Amazing! Wonderful! I had always wanted to y in a casino at least once!
That said Aphrodite as her eyes glowed and sparkled.
I remembered something she said earlier.
The heavenly world where Aphrodite lived seemed to be a ce where there was not much to entertain and it was much more boringpared to this world.
So, um, I dont understand Aphrodites feelings of worship towards the casino.
This is strange. If its a ve-trading house Why is there a casino here?
All right. Hey, Souta! Get the money out quick! Im ying in the casino today!
If if I dont stand firm
Aphrodite seems to havepletely forgotten the purpose of todays visit.
Certainly you werent you the one who said before that we shouldnt spend on whims?
Well, well. Customer-sama, is this your first time in the store?
Rust Trizalti
Gender: Male
Age: 84
When I turned to the voice that spoke, there was apletely handsome man.
Huh? 84 years old?!
What does this mean?
He looks like a teenager or a twenty-year-old, but
He looks like a human, so he belongs to a long-lived race?
Umm, you are?
Excuse me. My name is Rust. I own this casino and the Bakuraja ve Trading House.
I see.
This guy is the new owner that was rumored?
It is said that the presentation of the Bakuraja ve Trading House was different since the change of ownership, but is this the only reason?
You see, Ive heard that you can buy ves in this shop
Of course, you can. All the female staff working in this store are products. If the customer-sama wins a game, he can buy her favorite ve girl she sees.
Hm. Eh!?
When I look closer, I see sings with prices of 1 million tokens and 3 million tokens hanging from the necks of girls in bunny suits.
This means that all these beautifuldies in bunny suits can you take them all home?!
Guha!
This is a dream that has gone beyond.
Do you get tokens when you win at games?
Oh, you know it well. Our casino system has been quite popr with our wealthiest customers. We are now number one in sales among the ve trading houses in Saint Bell.
Finally, the dotse together.
The reason Bakuraja Trading House has improved is here.
The spirit of the casino is alive, and it seems to be more lucrative helping sales, being better than selling the ves in the normal way.
In other words this could be the same as the gacha gaming type.
Tokens can be purchased at our counter. Now then, customer-sama, please enjoy our store fully.
The man named Rust is leaving us after telling us that.
Souta, that man just now was a demon like Caro.
A demon?! Why is there a demon here?!
I dont know! Dont ask me!
That reason convinced me why his appearance didnt match his age.
Why is there a demon working as a casino owner?
Why would that be?
In this world there must be other good demons like Carolina.
Just because the other side is a demon, its not good to judge them for it.
I dont want to be the only unhappy person here even though theres a demon that works his ass off. Thinking about that, I decided to y in the casino to get the ves I wanted.
Chapter 87
Why why dont I win
2 hourster.
I spent a lot of money at the casino, now I was sitting on a couch in shock.
The amount spent was 500,000 Kol.
One million Kol, one we had free rein to spend, was divided between me and Aphrodite.
If we converted 500,000 Kol from this world to modern Japan, it would be 600,000 yen.
My heart was flooded with guilt when I realized I spent 600,000 yen in just 2 hours.
Its definitely weird they might be operating remotely somewhere
The game in which I suffered a crushing defeat was poker.
Thinking about what happened, it couldnt have been bad luck.
In fact, at first winning was quite simple, and there were times when the money increased in an interesting way.
However.
The second half of the game was when it got horrible and I bet a lot of money.
Souta~a sorry I lost it~!
After some time, Aphrodite appears with a face full of tears and a runny nose that stains her face.
Its probably from the impact of losing in the games.
Aphrodite looks at me and buries her face in my chest.
Hey, hey.
My clothes arent tissues.
D you too
hic. I-Im sorry.
Its okay. I just spent mine. Still, theres 10 million Kol left in the ball.
My decision to only spend 1 million Kol on the casino, which was for daily expenses, was the right one.
Aphrodite and I split that money in two and spent it on the casino.
We will go back to work. Once we get back, we have to apologize to Caro, okay?
Maybe that was a bad way tofort her?
When I told Aphrodite, she buried her face even harder in my chest.
Im sorry, Souta. For spending it
Now. I spent it too. Lets go together and apologize to Caro
The savings you had on the ball, I spent them all!
Sorry, what?
The next moment I tried to withdraw the funds that were supposed to be in the ball
I had a serious difort.
Nothing!
Theres nothing!
Theres none of the savings that were supposed to be there on the ball
Could it be that when you came back to the ball, it was because you were taking money other than your own?
.. Yes.
What were you thinking?!
I-I was going to lose the 500,000 kol if I didnt! Its just I couldnt have looked anyone in the face if I didnt.
Shes a its always a bad g to try to get back the money you lost at the casino, in the same casino.
I cant do anything but feel sorry for Aphrodite because Im saddened by her miserable face. Theres an air of bitterness flowing between us.
Chapter 88
The story so far.
Aphrodite and I lost a total of over 10 million kol in the course of one day.
Although Aphrodite is 95% me for our bankruptcy its no use crying over spilt milk.
Our chain is different, but the sins are the same.
He-Hey, Souta. What What are you nning to do to me in a ce like this?!
Right now.
I was with Aphrodite in a bathroom that held more than two people.
Can-can this be some kind of punishment for spending my money in the casino? Isnt this some kind of perverted thing?!
Huh?
Souta, evil! Demon! Pervert! Taking advantage of a girls weakness, venting your libido in a bathroom Souta, youre the worst!
Youre wrong. Please be quiet for a moment.
For Gods sake she thinks of me as a monkey in mating season or something.
Theres no way I could think of anything like that in a situation like this.
D, cant you imagine? Theres something strange about the games in this casino. I have a feeling theyre rigged.
After I lost, I was watching other peoples games
I got simr results.
Compared to when you bet a lot of money, the winning percentage when its higher is reduced.
It certainly feels that way now that you say it
If what I think is right, theyre cheating. And we lost our money because of them.
Yes! That was it!
When I asked for agree, Aphrodite shook her head with a loud tone,
Ah. So thats why Im going to expose their fraud. D, youre gonna watch my back. If anything goes wrong, youll let me know with the Contact skill.
So thats why I summoned a monster called Firefox, which is about 30 inches long.
If its with a small body like this, its bound to go through the venttion into the employee lounge.
Hey, Souta. What are you doing?
Didnt I tell you? Using the ability Soul Maniption, I can enter the souls of the monsters.
Since when!?
Soul Maniption | Grade B | Active
(Skill to possess enved monsters.)
The skill Soul Maniption is very versatile, but there is one disadvantage, and that is that when it is in use, the body is left in an unprotected state.
So, I thought that Aphrodite could take care of my body this time.
Well. Ill use the skill, so Ill get you the rest.
The next moment I entered the body of the Firefox.
Following the pattern, my body loses all its strength and falls towards Aphrodite.
Ah~. Wait, Souta! Eeeeh!?
Aphrodite threw herself at my body but let out a voice of shame.
(Then, Im leaving. Dont do perverted things to my body just because Im not there).
(O-O-Of course not, you fool!)
I wonder if that joke was too much.
Hearing my words, Aphrodites face turned red as a tomato.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So.
I did a thorough search with the body of the Firefox.
Its strange, isnt it?
I dont think Id ever want to go into such a filthy ce if I was in my own body, but when Im in someone elses that Ive borrowed, I can get into the room.
Hahaha. Exactly I cant stopughing.
Oh. That big-breasted blonde beauty, huh. That look I wonder if shes some kind of nobledy or something.
After I walked around for a while, I heard a mans voice down.
Big-breasted blonde beauty?
I wonder if theyre talking about Aphrodite.
Still are the customers whoe to the casino all fools?
Totally. They couldnt even imagine that were using illusion magic of dark magic to change the pattern of the cards to our liking.
!?
It is unexpected that the evidence that they were cheating came to light so quickly.
Illusion Magic
Is there such a magic within the magic of darkness?
If the dealer is able to change the pattern of cards to his liking, then it is a situation where the casino never loses.
I wont spare them!
Ill give them back double
You guys what are you whispering about?
R-Rust-sama!
As I watched from inside the casino roof, the man named Rust, the owner of the casino, appeared.
What happened to the blonde girl? Did you have trouble squeezing everything out of her?
Here, take a look at this! Just like that, we got 10 million kol from her. This is all thanks to the illusion magic that Rust-sama taught us.
Thats not what I want to hear. What happened to the girl?
Huh? When she lost she left the table with watery eyes Could be that buha!?
Hey, hey.
What the hells going on?
Thats what I was thinking when Rust started smashing his fist into the employees faces.
Dont I always tell you? We have to get women into debt to use them as products in the store. Just by looking at her appearance and with a few tricks, we can sell her to some noble pervert and get to 30 million kol from him.
Guh Rust-sama please forgive us
Thats why you guys are scum! Im losing possible money just because youre ipetent! What are you going to do now?!
This is terrible.
The employees are crying as they seek forgiveness, but they were only beaten until their faces swelled up.
Apparently, I misunderstood something.
These employees are not without sin, but the root of all evil is this demon called Rust.
Scum! Thats why I hate mix myself with these inferior humans!
Guha
The employees who were kicked to the curb had now rolled onto the floor until they were unconscious.
Im furious.
Not only is it that people are being cheated out of their money, but I cannot contain my anger at the words of Rust, who only sees humans as garbage.
This is different from good demons like Carolina and Yuuko.
Rust is one of those evil demons, just as Rikku-san said. Knowing the truth of the matter, I swore an oath of vengeance against the Bakuraja ve Trading House.
Chapter 89
A few dayster.
I visited the casino to get my money back.
I see. It certainly feels like someone of my raceing from the building, albeit a little weak.
Really?
Yes. However, I am unable to detect any trace from the other side. Perhaps the casino owner is considered a low-ranking demon, so much so that I am unable to sense it.
This time I brought in a powerful helper Carolina, to even the score.
We got 20 million kol from selling antiques from the mansion.
It was difficult to find a shop that could handle such an amount in a single auction, and it became a rumored effort throughout the region.
Excuse me. Id like to y poker.
As you wish. Is this your first time ying poker?
No. Im clear on the exnation of the rules since this is my second time.
This bastard
Dont you remember that a few days ago you stole half a million kol from me?
There are many people whoe and go every day who must make a fuss, so its natural to forget the faces.
By the way, whats the maximum bet amount for this game?
The maximum amount is not particrly decided. Please show us what you wish to bet.
Is that so? Then this
At the moment I say that, I pull a shiny gold coin out of a pre-prepared bag.
The amount two hundred pieces.
Thats the calction when I change all the 20 million Kol into coins.
Hey! Look at that!
Are you crazy? That kid how much does he n to bet on a game!?
So far, its going as I predicted.
Customers who smell an unprecedentedly great game are gathering around the table.
Cu-Customer-sama. Just to be sure, once the game starts, it will be impossible to cancel.
Of course. Im clear on that.
I understand. Then lets start the game.
Apparently, weve passed through the first barrier.
At worst, I was prepared to be rejected.
Maybe the croupier has his own skill the original illusion magic in which he has absolute confidence.
Ill deal the cards.
I take a look at the cards delivered by the croupier.
From the right, One of Spades, Three of Hearts, Seven of Diamonds, Four of Clubs and Six of Spades.
This is terrible.
Stay cool and calm.
Do you switch cards?
Please.
Change 4 cards. Leaving the 1 of swords, I check the swapped cards.
The next one I dont change.
I couldnt even make two pairs on my own.
I could be convinced that this was a game of chance, if this had happened only once or twice.
But since it happened the same way even when I came before, now I have doubts.
When I look into the croupiers eyes, I let out a Lets do it, with a feeling of relief.
No matter how much I think about it, I can only conclude that he will use illusion magic.
I really want to know if hes going to cheat again.
Royal Flush.
The next moment my cards were disyed.
The customers in the vicinity began to cheer up.
l-Impossible! Something like this is not possible!
Stay calm until the end.
The croupiers face was pale.
But thats nothing more than reasonable.
ording to the rules of the casino, in case you draw a royal flush, the amount to be returned is 1000 times its value.
I estimate Ill get a total of 2 billion tokens.
You bastard you cheated! Say it! What trick did you use it!?
The croupiers voice echoed in the casino.
Its easy to understand once you know how it goes.
If the other party uses illusion magic to cheat, you can do the same.
Since theres an expert dark magic user here.
I asked Carolina to use the same Illusion Magic that the dealer used to rig the cards and draw royal flush.
Oh? What do you base it on to say that I cheat?
Th-Thats
As I thought, he cheats.
The fact that he can say I cheated just by looking at my cards is proof that theyre cheating too.
Okay.
I wont forgive the fact that theyre cheating.
Im ready to show no mercy
Whats going on? Whats happening?!
The bloodsucking owner who heard themotion came here.
R-Rust-sama! Hiii, please forgive me!
The croupier, who realized his own mistake, was frightened by the abnormality of the situation.
No wonder.
I suppose its because of the trauma caused by the blows in his face a few days ago.
Rust looked at the croupier like he was trash, giving a refreshing smile.
Customer-sama. Here, please. Now, Id like to talk to you about your victory.
Well, well.
Whats going to happen?
Although I would like to have the money taken from me returned immediately and even use him of cheating, I have not expected he to ept my victory without a fight.
Im not just going to take the money and force my way out. Thats why I decided to go with Rust and talk with him for the time being.
Chapter 90
Is this a rest area for employees or something?
The ce I came to with Rust guiding me was a dirty room.
Now, that was a big win. Let me congratte you first.
Sure Thank you.
His face has a smile, but he expresses the opposite with his eyes.
Rust seems to really hate me.
So, wheres the money?
Oh, yeah, right. Id forgotten. But Id like to give you something else first, before I hand over the money.
!?
I felt things were getting dangerous, so I moved to avoid an attack.
Rust attacked me with a sharp knife.
Wow, looks like Ill have to do it now.
His speed is high, since hes a demon.
Because I caught a goddess, my speed is also high. But if I had been an ordinary adventurer, I probably couldnt have avoided it and he would have killed me with just that one blow.
What are you supposed to do?
Hahaha. I would never give my money to a dirty human like you! Oh, boy Im gonna have to do some extra work. Well, I guess its worth it but Id rather you just died and handed me the money!
His hand came very quickly!
His legs are not slow either!
Get rid of that bug! Ill let you see how!
Yes, sir.
When Rust gave the signal, men with angry faces began to enter the room like an avnche.
There are five of them in all.
They approached to surround me and smiled confidently.
Summon Goblin Knight!
I dont feel like being merciful to them.
I summoned Goblin Knights one after another from the capsule ball and had them round up the thugs instead.
What-whats going on?! Howe these monsters?!
The men look scared.
No wonder.
Generally speaking, its known that the maximum number of beasts a monster tamer could summon is three.
And here I am summoning over 10 monsters. I think Im some kind of heretic.
Guha!
Geho!
Buha!
The Goblin Knights with their weapons soon put the thugs out of action.
By equipping them with the Iron Maces and Circr Shields made by Ciel*, the fighting power of the goblins increased dramatically.
(If Im not mistaken, this should be Sheryls real name.)
Tch. Its no use. If it was possible, I didnt want to have to use this form.
When Rust whispers that, some bat wings grew out of his back.
Vampire II | Grade S | Level 23

Rust abandoned his human form to be a vampire.
Hmm?
His statistics arent so strong as they seem.
When ites to numbers, its only a tenth of Carolinas power.
Is her demon ability so minimal?
What do you say, human? Wuahahaha! Im sure youre terrified of my true form!
Well, thats a hard question.
I usually see more impressive demons, but if youre asking me if Im surprised, yes, I am.
Whats wrong? Huhuhu. Are you so scared you cant even talk?
Rust, whopletely misunderstood the situation, began to get carried away.
Well, well. I didnt think this was going to be so pathetic. Lets get it over with quickly.
Summon Adamite Golem!

As Rust approaches, I use Adamites Golem to intercept him.
Gaa!
How much does it affect strength in closebat?
Adamites Golem crushed Rust against a wall like a simple mosquito.
Da damn who the hell are you?
Rust, who was quite damaged, asked, pouring out blood from his mouth.
Kazehaya Souta. Just a simple adventurer.
Dont-Dont give me that nonsense! What kind of adventurer is capable of opposing a demon?!
Rust spat out saliva as he screamed in exasperation.
Well, well, well.
I didnt expect this turn of events.
Id really like to y angry with him.
So, you bastard how dare you try to take my money in such a dirty way? Now Im really angry.
When Rust fell to the ground, I grabbed him by the neck and looked at him threateningly.
Youre gonna give me the money now, right?
Hiii!
He must have realized by now that the situation is not in his favor at all.
Giving the order to advance to Adamites Golem with the ability to Contact, Rust retreats by dragging his butt along the ground.
W-Wait! We can talk about it! I can give you the finest virgin ve in this whole ce! So, listen to me, okay?!
I dont want to. Such a thing will not stop my anger.
What more do you want?! What kind of ve do you want me to give you?!
I want you to be a ve!
I threw a capsule ball at the vampire.
When it came into contact with Rusts body, the capsule ball sucked him in.
Result: Right now, Rusts body waspletely inside the little capsule ball.
Shit! Wh-Where am I?! I want out! Let me out!
Rust was hitting the ball from the inside with tears in his eyes.
Maybe this guy is a crybaby?
The vampire inside the ball seems to be a pessimist, too.
Anyway, now I can say this line: ve Trader got!
Chapter 91
(TN: Hope at least 3 chapters today.)
I left the casino and went back to the mansion.
Of course, I didnt forget to get my money back.
The 20 million kol used now and the 10 million kol stolen from usst time at the ve Trade Company.
The casino was a great ce, since we could get the ve we wanted without even paying a coin.
Huh? What am I doing here?!
Oh, youre finally awake?
When I got back to the mansion, I decided to take the vampire out of the ball.
By the way, after I forced Rust to tell me where the vault was, I gave him the order To sleep docile and obediently without making a fuss.
So, for Rust, he could only stay locked and quiet inside the ball.
S-Stop! Dont kill me!
Rust looked at my face as he put his hands together in prayer.
Hey, hey.
Thats rough.
Do I look like a murderer or something?
Its gonna be fun to make fun of him a little bit.
Too bad. Have you forgotten what I can do?
Hii! I understand! Ill do anything, no matter what! But please dont kill me!
Hm anything?
I intended to put Rust to work doing housework around the house.
This may have saved us some trouble.
Well, I see. If thats the way its going to be, then I intend to forgive you.
Really?!
Sure. From now on, youll have a new body to work with.
A new body?
I opened the skill screen, where I selected the Demon Combination skill, ignoring Rusts question.

After reading the message, I chose Rust without hesitation.

Now it was time to choose the material, which I decided on a Mad Mash.
I had been fooling around a little bit with the patterns before, and I learned that Carolina (a Vampire) plus a Mad Mash created a Subus.

Their powerful dark magic ces them among the most powerful demons.
Ohoho!
So, were finally in the presence of a subus?
Subus.
Its a monster who embodies all the desire of the men of the world.
Subi have the image of a woman dressed erotically in the games of my world.
A sinful monster who seduces men with her captivating body and vigorous libido.
I have longed for this moment, to meet a subus, ever since I obtained my profession in this world.
I thank you. Thanks to you I can now make my dreame true.
W-Wait! What what are you going to do?!
Can he sense the danger?
Rust screamed in panic, but its toote.
Its my chance!
What-whats going on?!
The next moment, I pressed the yes button.
Rust began to emit a dazzling glow.
Eventually, his height of almost 1.8 meters, was quickly reduced.
His waist narrowed, and his butt and breasts got bigger.
What finally appeared was a subus (a beautiful girl) with a sexy body.
I-Idiooooot! What-what am I supposed to do with this body?! Rust noticed that his gender had changed and he screamed.
Chapter 92
Gulp.
I swallowed saliva when I first saw the subus.
Such big breasts.
Theyre probably almost as big as Aphrodites.
Was he that attractive before?
Rusts appearance is still good, even now that his body is that of a woman.
Even with the clothes now too big for him, it makes her look prettier.
How cruel this is too cruel really.
Now hes devastated knowing his gender has changed.
Rust muttered something as he fell t on his face to the ground.
Umm.
Maybe I went too far?
But, nevertheless.
This is something he brought on himself.
As some anime hero would say: If you kill someone, its because youre ready to die too.
In that sense, Rust was the one who wanted to kill me, so now he has no right toin.
When I think Im giving him a second life as a beautiful girl, I start to feel guilty.
Hey, Rust. Serious question will you let me touch your breasts?
What?
Congrattions, by the way. As you must know by now, youre a beautiful girl.
Are you stupid or what?
No, no. Im serious. When you be a girl, youre able to touch your breasts all day! Im jealous!
Ku, Im going to kill you!
Didnt my words of encouragement help?
Rust raised his fists and tried to hit me.
Impossible! Why cant I hit you?!
But, still.
Right before his fist hit my face, Rusts motion stopped.
You didnt know? Enved monsters cannot attack their masters for any reason.
What-what the hell hahaha.
He must have realized the disadvantage he is at.
Rust fell to his knees in defeat.
Master, will you let us take care of her?
(TN: Hes already a woman, so hes a she (?))
What did that woman say?
After hearing all thismotion, it was Caro and Yuuko demons that came.
I dont mind but what are you nning to do?
I understand the masters intention, however, as she is not suitable to be one of your ves. Therefore, we want to make her a first-ss ve.
Of course I think maids style would suit her
So its a yes?
Never!
Yuuko threw her hand at Rust as she looked down at her.
Her body was small, but her strength was just the opposite.
Rust, who was now a beauty, was sent flying nearly six feet away.
How rude! Dont you know the vampire master Carolina?! Low-ranking demons like you shouldnt even talk!
That Carolina!?
So Carolina is famous in the vampire society?
The look on Rusts face changed immediately when she heard Carolinas name.
I-Its a lie, right? Carolina is a hero among vampires! But to think that shes serving a human
Rust right?
Yes, maam.
The next time you insult Souta-sama, I will tear out your tonguepletely.. so that your mouth can never make another sound.
S-So scaary!
When Carolina gets angry, she can be really scary.
I-I have no doubt! This strength can only belong to Carolina-sama! To think that I can serve a master vampire how lucky I am!
Whats going on here?
Carolinas great bloodthirst seems to have moved Rust to tears, for when she received it, she was brought to her knees.
I learned thister, but apparently demons have a habit of subduing those who are stronger.
So, for Rust, serving Carolina must have been like being in heaven.
Thats nice. For now, it seems that Rust is willing to work in our home. So, lets get the room ready right away
No, master. Theres no need for that.
There should be a servants room left by the previous owner of this mansion. That will be enough for her.
I see. Well, then Ill leave you to take care of it, Caro.
Lets see, then.
My goal is to create the perfect harem in this other world and then take it home.
However, while it is easy to say that I will do it, the decision of whether or not Rust is a good candidate for is something that cannot be taken lightly.
In the end, only those people who are women in body and soul will be able to join in!
This is how a real harem will really feel.
Chapter 93
After getting the subus without any problems, I decided to go back to the room and check my status screen.

Acquisition Conditions
Create an S-range or higher monster.
To have 2000 or more mana
A new skill was added to the Skills section.
Hoho.
It seems that the acquisition condition this time has been obtained by transform Rust from vampire to subus.
Whichever way you look at it, this skill is terribly versatile.
Why you ask?
With this ability, I can be stronger and stronger depending on the monster I enve.
Lets see.
I was summoned to a world of magic and swords.
First of all, lets borrow Rusts Dark Magic (Advanced) skill.
Know me as the Master of Darkness!
A man born in darkness who can control it!
System Message
(You cannot borrow this skill.)
Damn! Ive anticipated this anyway!
The bnce of this world would probably be broken if I were to use magic as freely as monsters.
Unfortunately, Ill have to give up on that.
Suction | Grade B | Active
(Short-range Single blow. Absorbs mens sexual desire.)
Aphrodisiac | Grade B | Active
(Short range, single attack. Ability to increase the libido in the target)
Then I saw two other skills that Rust has.
Is it something like the Dust of Disorder from the Mad Mash?
However, while the grade of Dust of Disorder was D, the grade of these two skills is B!
The effect must be really amazing.
So, I decided to take out a Goblin Knight to test the skill.
Gobu! Gobu!
I chose the Goblin Knight for a reason.
It is said that a Goblin Knight would be about 40 human years old if we converted his life time, and that means 4 decades of umted sexual desire.
Well, here Ie, Goblin Knight!
Gobu!
After I used the Suction skill, a catastrophe urred.
Amazing!
Wha-what is this?!
My body is hot.
The energy flowing from the Goblin Knight is visible.
Wait a minute.
You guys charged with all this libido inside the ball?!
Im sorry.
Goblin Knights.
I, as a man, should have noticed the suffering of the Goblin Knights.
In the future, it seems best to eliminate the Goblins libido with this Suction skill from time to time.
Apparently, this was another job Rust would take on.
Haa haa its over right?
I know my body.
Ipletely absorbed the Goblin Knights libido and was now full of a certain emotion.
This is not good.
Anyone is fine if I dont find someone to satisfy this desire
My sex drive seems to be going crazy.
Wha-whats going on, Souta-san? Your face is red.
Walking here at a leisurely pace, I discovered a possible target.
The busty loli body of Ciel looks even more sensual than usual since she has just taken a bath.
(TN: I dont know which breasts hes talking about, in the whole novel theyve said she has them, but in the illustrations shes just a normal loli).
Ciel, youe at the right time. I must tell you something important, could youe to my room?
Um, I dont mind, but is it okay if I dry my hair first? If I dont do it quickly, it tends to get all messy.
This girl what is she talking about?
I dont want to talk about hair right now.
The important thing now is to get rid of all this sex drive.
Wait, Souta-san! Whats gotten into you?! Your face is scaring me!
Say no more! Lets go to my room!
Eeeeeeeh!?
Im sorry, but theres no time to chat right now.
Kidnapping, abduction?
No problem!
10 minutester.
Ciels voice echoed nonstop.
Muha!
Thats a good skill.
I enjoyed Ciels body to the fullest using the Aphrodisiac skill.
Chapter 94
The next morning.
When I went into the living room as usual, I was met by an astonishing sight.
Unbelievable! Whats going on?
The breakfast lined up on the table in the room looked like what youd expect from a luxury hotel buffet.
Ham and eggs, omelet, roast beef, sd, yogurt and freshly baked bread, etc.
There was lined up a menu of Western food that would make you salivate just to look at it.
Fufu. How about it, Souta? All this was made by Rust-chan.
Really?
Why is Aphrodite who has that smiling face?
It would be a pain to make a punch line, so Ill keep it to myself for now.
Rust is amazing, Souta-san! Youve found an amazing person! Not only she does cook, but she can also do the chores. Isnt she the pinnacle of female power!?
Hahaha
And I only captured Rust because I was curious to see a subus.
The truth is that I nned to learn to cook little by little, but I feel that with this I was able to save myself a lot of work.
Hmm. Theres nothing humans can do that demons cant. For me, cooking is as simple as breathing.
When I turned to the speaker, I saw the figure of Rust as a maid.
Rust, who had transformed into a girl with a bombshell body, waspletely dressed in a short maid uniform.
What a surprise. Rust is a good cook.
A beautiful girl whos good at cooking and has a nice body too.
In addition, she has skills to improve the nightlife.
So maybe Rust is my dream woman?
Do-Dont be getting any weird ideas, Kazehaya Souta. I would never cook for you. This food was made for Carolina-sama, who I love!
Wow!
On top of all that, shes tsundere!?
This is bad.
It seems that a certain tendency that shouldnt be in me is about to appear.
Rust, how many times do I have to say it for you to understand?
Ca-Carolina-sama!?
Looking back at the bloodthirst, Carolina had a terrifying expression on her face.
Didnt I say that? Please watch the way you refer to your master. Both you and Yuuko, why cant you understand such a simplemand?
B-But Carolina-sama, we are proud demons! Even you, who are said to be Iblis-samas right-hand, theres no need to be so humble with a human
Who told you you could make excuses!
The next moment that Carolinas shout resonated.
Gobaaa!
Rusts spectacr body was sent flying and crashed into one of the walls of the mansion.
An incredibly fast strike that even your eyes couldnt see!
Even I didnt get a good look at it.
Im so sorry. ve education will take some more time. Could you please keep waiting?
Su-Sure.
Carolina is terribly intimidating every time she gets angry.
For the moment, it seems that cooking conditions have improved bing Rust ourpanion. So, Ill let Carolina do the rest.
Chapter 95
After eating it was time to go to work.
As I returned to my room and changed my clothes, I began to think about todays expedition.
Ummm.
Where should I go?
In the Hiryu Mountain Range* I didnt know what to do.
(Name changed, Hiryu is the original. I dont understand why Makoto had changed it to Ryuzoku)
Not only did I wander around for a long time, but sadly I couldnt find the dragon I was looking for either.
Well, at the moment theres nowhere else.
Kazehaya, can Ie in?
While I was thinking, a voice sounded from outside the room.
The one that came into my room was the beautiful subus Rust.
Did something happen?
I heard it from Carolina-sama, so youre going out on an subjugation quest?
Ah, thats right, but
If you dont know where to go Id like to go to the Hiryu Mountain Range.
What happened so suddenly?
May I ask why?
No, you cant. This is something that not even Carolina-sama knows. Not to mention that a human can knows.
Hey, hey.
Is that a way to ask someone for favors?
I can barely forgive her because of the fact that she looks like a beautiful girl, but if shed had her former man form, Id have been pretty upset.
I understand. I can see its something that cant be said out of the blue. Going to the Hiryu Mountain Range isplicated, so Id better do it another day.
Ah, hey wait a minute!
After I treated her so casually, Rust grabbed my shoulder and stared at me.
Too close!
Youre a voluptuous subus please be a little more conscious!
She still hasnt assimted that shes a woman now.
If something happens, you can tell me. Its the only way Ill see if I feel like going to the Hiryu Mountain Range.
Gunu. Th-Thats not gonna happen. Id rather take the secret to my grave!
Hmm.
At first, youd just think she was a blockhead, but it looks like shes not going to change his mind about this.
Why is she going to such lengths to keep it a secret anyway? Im a little curious.
Then you leave me no choice. Ill use my spell to make you more honest. Tell me everything youre hiding.
So, I decided to use my Absolute Control.
Rust may not know it, but a Monster Tamer can make the summoned monster do anything they wants.
The reason I want to go to the Hiryu Mountain Range is because I want to meet the Dragon Empress Kururu.
What!
What the hell did she say?!
The Dragon Empress Kururu.
One of the worst demons known to have taken a great amount of human lives, she was even one of the Demon Kingsmanders.
Everything I know of her I have learned before from Rikku-san, the master of Ciel.
Shit! Yo-You bastard! What did you do to me!? My mouth my mouth moved by itself!?
Whatever. Just keep talking. Why must you meet Kururu?
Because I was originally a servant of Kururu-sama. Under her orders, I started working as the owner of the casino and handed over the proceeds to her. This time, however, things have changed, as from now on I will be working under Carolina-sama. Apologizing to Kururu-sama is justmon sense.
I understand. So thats what happens.
Im surprised Rust worked under Kururu.
However, this connects the events in many ways.
I used to wonder why Rust, a demon, worked at the casino.
By the way, why did you decide to serve Carolina? More so knowing that youd betray Kururu by doing so.
I had no idea.
Was Carolina really that important among the demons?
However, given Carolinas exploits so far, I dont think its strange.
I always wondered if it was really okay to work under Kururu-sama. But honestly, I had something I couldnt respect her for.
This matches the information Rikku-san had given me.
It seemed that Kururu was known for her cruelty even in demon hunting parties.
Hey. Theres one thing that keeps bothering me, do you think Kururu will want to forgive you for cutting ties with her and finding a new master?
Ugh. I have my doubts about that, too. Kururu-sama is a strict person who wont tolerate even the slightest mistake if Im lucky, at best I might get half killed at worst, Ill be killed.
Of course, she would.
From what Ive heard, this woman, Kururu, seems to be an atrocious and proud demon.
I do not believe that one of her subordinates, who betrayed her, wille out unscathed.
Why would you want to go to such a dangerous ce?
If thats the case, Kururu-sama will never forgive me. She will follow me to the end of the world and try to kill me. If that would happen, there is a chance that Carolina-sama is in danger. So, this is a problem I have to solve alone.
I see.
Is that so?
Rust.
Im reevaluating my opinion of you.
Even if she were to die, she doesnt want to bother Carolina.
I thought she was just a fool but shes really quite a man!
Although its a bit strange to say that a beauty like her is quite a man.
All right, all right. If thats the case, well go to the Hiryu Range today.
!? Are you sure!?
When I agreed, for a moment a beautys smile blossomed on Rusts face.
Oh, yes. But there is one condition.
Condition?
Youll go with me all the way to Kururusir and I wont let you leave my side.
Are you sure you want to do this? Kururu-sama wont let me return unharmed. If you go with me, youll be in great danger, right?
Make no mistake. Im not going to do it for you. I just cant stand the idea that someones going to break the things that belong to me.
Ka-Kazehaya!
After listening to me, Rusts cold heart was deeply moved and her eyes became teary with emotion.
What will it be? This atmosphere
It wouldnt be so bad if Rust was really a beautiful girl
Dont be silly! Shes a man!
Her tits are a ten and his big ass is fluffy but shes still mentally a man.
Its problematic that a twisted sexuality seems to spring up in me after Rust has be apanion.
Chapter 96
After listening to Rusts opinion, I decided to ride the Turtle Car in order to reach the Hiryu Mountain Range.
The price of the Turtle Car was still high, but we could not afford to take so much time to think about it.
If you can avoidbat, then thats fine, but if you dont take enough measures, you may find yourself in one of the biggest predicaments of all time today.
I want to believe that I will be okay because I have a group of people I can count on, but the thought of what is toe makes my hands sweat.
I see. So, the master is now going to face Kururu.
If you want to know about demons, what better than to ask other demons.
With that in mind, I decided to exin to Carolina what had happened so far.
Maybe you know something about Kururu?
Yeah. We were always together we both worked in the same ce. But her bad behavior caused her problems, so much so that she was fired. Kururus unpredictable behavior used to bring out the best in me.
I didnt know
Im getting a better sense of the story.
So, I guess there was a time when Kururu tried to work seriously, too.
However, after she was fired from her job, her heart was corrupted, and she joined an evil organization known as the Demon Lords Army.
So, in your eyes, is Kururu strong?
Yes. In terms of fighting ability, its the best among demons. Im probably no match for Kururu right now.
!?
Its a joke, right?!
Even in our group, Carolinas status is peerless to others.
To be stronger than Carolina, how inted is Kururus status?!
This is not good.
Should we turn back now?
..
No.
I must calm down.
No matter how strong the opponent is.
I have the Capsule Ball skill that allows me to have a 100% chance of capturing my opponent.
Even if its the worst battle, we have a good chance of winning if I can throw the ball to her while Carolina gets her attention.
Fortunately, she doesnt know about my capabilities.
If you get into a fight, throwing the ball in a surprise move wouldnt be a particr problem.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile, we arrived at the Hiryu Mountain Range.
In my field of vision there was a huge mountain that extended like a heavenly impulse, just as it had been when I came here before.
Kazehaya, Kururusir is over here. Follow me.
Hey, but, thats
The destination to which our guide, Rust, was heading waspletely off the climbing route by a secondary route.
Isnt it just the wild animals that pass through this ce?
It was barely wide enough for a human to pass through and I could see the tall grass poking my skin.
Kururu-sama dislikes ufortable trips more than anything else. She wouldnt set up air on a mountaintop or anything.
After a short walk, Rust pushed a pendant he had on his chest against a lumpy rock wall.
Th-This is?
So, what do you think?
Thendscape, which until now looked like a simple rock wall, changed quickly, and finally arge cave appeared.
This pendant has the effect of temporarily lifting Kururu-samas illusion magic. Its a special item she only gives to people she trusts.
I see.
In other words, in principle, its simr to the casino poker scam.
No wonder Rikku-san couldnt find Kururusir.
Master. From here, please walk as close to me as possible.
Whats going on all of a sudden?
You never know what kind of trick Kururu will use. I just want to be able to respond quickly in case something goes wrong.
Ok. Well, I guess one cant help but be cautious.
When I answered, Carolina squeezed my hand tightly.
Thats strange.
I had been anxious until a few moments ago, but when Carolina held my hand, I felt my heart calm.
Chapter 97
Dungeon.
Its a dungeon.
Inside the cave that Rust had taken me, was a scene that could only be described as such.
Wow. Theres so much magma exposed there
I thought it was too hot, and it was the magma that had formed a pond.
This brings back memories.
In the game worlds, if you step on the magma floor, you lose HP, but now that I think about it, it seems like an unreal scenario.
I think, if you step on magma, losing HP would be the least of your worries.
This way, Kazehaya-san. Kururu-sama is over there, behind that door.
Su-Sure.
This time, we cannot move withrge numbers of people because the level of danger is so different.
Thats why we were acting like a team of Carolina, Rust, and me.
I wonder why, though.
Somehow, I miss that silly side of Aphrodite, the one that interrupts the viciously serious atmosphere.
Master! Up there!
Hey!
Smander | Grade C | LV 25/25

Magic: 215
Mana: 153
Skills:
Fire Breath
What the!
That monster is!
When I looked in the direction Carolina had pointed, I saw a huge lizard monster almost 15-feet long.
Gushaaaaaaahhhhh!
The smander is glued to the ceiling above the doors, but it also makes strange noises to intimidate us.
I see.
Apparently, we have to defeat the Smander to open the door.
I understand. This dragon is a monster prepared by Kururu to attack us.
No. Youre wrong, Kazehaya. This smanders name is Stephanie, and shes Kururu-samas pet.
A pet?
Thats right. Stephanie loves me so much shed never hurt me. Needless to say, Ive been the one feeding her for over a year. I hope youll be relieved.
Is it really okay?
No matter how you think about it, she doesnt seem to have any favoritism towards us
You dont seem very convinced.
Yeah, because it looks like shes gonna attack us any minute, doesnt it?
Chitchi. Surely, by nature, Stephanie would never let an intruder through, yet she is a smart girl. Once she recognizes the smell, she does no harm to the person shes dealing with.
!?
I see.
Thats a relief as if I believed it!
The reason for Rusts im that it would be okay was because she would remember her smell?!
Surely, if it had been the previous Rust, it wouldnt have been attacked by the Smander.
But, nevertheless.
Since she has her gender changed and took the form of a beautiful girl, doesnt that mean her smell has changed too?
I cant be wrong!
Theres no way a mans body and a beautiful Subus girls body can smell the same!
It was right after I felt ufortable.
Recklessly, Rust approaches the Smander.
Now, now. Stephanie. Come y with me. Were on your side.
Ah, Rust, you idiot!
If you approach like that, Im sure
Gushaaaaaaahhhhh!
Oww! Its hot! Its hot, its hot, its hot! Why? Why are you doing this, Stephanie?!
Thats why I said you to stay away!
Rust was lying on the floor in a daze when he was hit by the Smanders breath attack.
Its not good to leave Rust, whose status is not high, like this.
Now that her guidance work is done, lets get her back in the ball.
Caro, can you get up there and knock the smander down?
Yeah. I mean, its not impossible, but
Thats weird.
If it had been as usual, Carolina would have said I understand and acted immediately, but this time, the response seemed to be somewhat forced.
The amount of time I can fight with all my might after using my transformation is limited to about 10 minutes a day. If I use it here, the battle with Kururu will be harder.
I see
I didnt know that.
Carolinas transformed mode was unbeatable, but there was a demerit with it, too, wasnt there?
Spending MPs on a random enemy before a battle with the boss is a trap for novice yers.
Then you leave me no choice, take this!
Nokoo!
So, the monster I summoned was the Mad Mash.
The Mad Mash with its Dust of Disorder that puts the opponent in heat will be able to attract the Smander that is stuck to the ceiling.
Noko!
The Dust of Disorder released by the Mad Mash umbre is directed at the smander.
Gushaaaaaaahhhhh!
But, nevertheless.
The Fire breath released from the smanders mouth burns off the Dust of Disorder.
Nokooooooooooooooooo!
Mad Maaaash!?
The Mad Mash rushes back to the ball after a fiery Smander attack.
Oh, that was close.
Can that breath of fire reach that far?
Thanks to that, I was able to get out of range, but Im worried about the damage Mad Mash might have received.
Eagerly, I checked its condition.

Now then, the healing effect of the Capsule Ball will naturally make him feel more energetic.
Sigh~.
Im really happy that Mad Mash is okay.
We cant afford to lose Mad Mash yet.
Since this guy has the Dust of Disorder skill, you can do several things inbination with Borrowing Skill.
..
Okay, I know what to do!
Ive alreadye up with an idea to defeat Smander.
Thank you, Mad Mash.
Thanks to you, I feel Ive made a breakthrough.
Caro, stay there and catch me!
what?
Originally, I would have liked to exin a little more, but I dont have time for that now.
You never know when the next Fire Breath wille.
I summoned Adamite Golem from inside the ball and decided to ride on his palm.
Lets goooo!
I use my Contact skill to send an order, and Adamite Golem throws my body with his big arm.
I have be a human cannon, and the distance between me and smander is getting shorter.
Gushaaaaaaahhhhh!
Oops.
Of course, it wont let me get that close, will it?
Smander opened its mouth wide and expelled a scorching breath.
Master!?
Hahaha.
Carolina seems to be worried, but so far, its within my expectations.
Fire Attribute Attack Immunity | Grade A | Passive
(An Skills that cancels out fire damage).
I temporarily borrowed the Fire Attribute Attack Immunity skill from Adamite Golem with Borrowing Skill!
Whoa!
Really, it doesnt burn!
I dont feel any change being in the fire.
I pass through the fire breath and throw the Capsule Ball.
I guess Smander didnt think Ide out of the fire unscathed.
Smanders huge body was wonderfully absorbed by the small capsule ball.
(Gaaaaaaaahhh! So-something came in!)
(How scary! Its gigantic!)
Immediately afterwards.
The cries of Aphrodite and Ciel were heard from inside the ball.
Certainly, if a smander appeared in front of you suddenly, you would be scared too.
I will exin the situationter.
Uh-oh. Thank you, Caro.
As expected, Carolina!
The worry of having done this was the great fall damage, but thanks to Carolinas response, we were able to bring it down to a minimum.
This way its a little embarrassing since its like being carried like a princess
( I dont know. I wonder if its just my imagination. Lately it seems the Master looks more and more like him)
As I was being held, I could hear Carolinas voice filtering out of her mind.
Wait a second.
Who the hell do you mean by him?
As usual, Carolina makes some significant statements.
This kind of thing seems a little dumb if pursued too deeply.
I took the Ball with Smander inside and headed straight for the door.

It has the potential to evolve into a flying dragon by increasing its level.
Chapter 98
To~ think~ it~ was~ you~, Carolina!
Kururu Cagnac
Sex: Female
Age: 378
When I opened the door, I found a huge woman, almost two meters tall, in the great hall at the back.
Her face, which was as swollen as a Daifuku, deviated quite a bit from the word beautiful for a Dragon Empress.
What about this monster!
Shes really in human mode, not in the form of demon, right?
The disparity in appearance with Carolina, who also belongs to the demon race, is tremendous.
Souta-kun how did you get here!
Rikku-san!?
What the hell does this mean?
Beside the Dragon Empress stood the figure of Rikku-san, who had been crucified at a stake with her entire body wounded.
Ha. That woman over there. I caught her sneaking around, so I caught her and now Im in the middle of an interrogation.
Whats up with that?
I cant believe Rikku-san was in trouble just because I took Rust!
This is what happened when you dared to go against Kururu.
Souta-kun! Theres no time to lose! Get out of here! Kururu is no match for a mere adventurer!
Huhuhu. I wont let you do that~. There are a lot of things I need to ask you too.
The next moment Kururu snapped his fingers.
With a thud, the door began to close.
I expected this, but it seems that Kururu was not going to let me go so easily.
You are the Monster Tamer who captured Carolina Do you know where my Rust is?
I dont think theres much to discuss here.
There isnt, right?
I dont think theres any hope for a peaceful resolution, no matter how hard we try now.
Oh, yes. I know where you can find him.
Really!? Tell me where!
She heard my answer and jumped up after gulping while screaming violently.
Come on I need an answer, and I need it now! Im not very picky. Depending on your answer, Ill at least let you choose the least painful way to die.
Oh, yes. Wait a minute, Ill get him out.
Uh take him out?
That man is on my ball right now.
It will be quicker to let people see these things with their own eyes than to exin them.
Thats why I decided to summon Rust from inside the ball and show it to Kururu.
E-E-Excuse me, Kururu-sama.
As expected from Rust!
He doesnt lose his temper!
Summoned in front of Kururu, Rust was shaking like a newborn fawn.
What are you saying? Who is this? She looks like a maid. Dont use my name so lightly!
Its me, Rust. For certain reasons, Im a woman now, but Im definitely Rust Trizarti.
~~~!?
A shocking revtion has now been revealed!
Kururu turned red with anger when she realized that her favorite subordinate had changed sex.
Hey, sorcerer! I dont know what the hell this is all about! Why is my cute little Rust-chan now a bitch who seems to want to flirt with men?!
It was for personal reasons. But now your subordinate will work for me as a beautiful Subus girl!
Dont-Dont be kidding me!
She probably invoked the power of Demonization.
Enraged, Kururus body expanded, and her already great length became even more enormous.

Ugh!
What the hell is going on with that status?
With the exception of Aphrodite, this is the first time Ive seen anyone with a status over 3,000.
In general, it is likely to be slightly above Carolina status in demonic form.
In any case, there is no doubt that she is an outstanding enemy.
If I were to describe the appearance of the monster called Zumeu in one sentence, Giant Lizard Man would be appropriate.
However, there is not as much beauty in those eyes as in those of a Lizard Man.
Her gaze was as sharp as that of a carnivorous beast.
Sorcerer, did you know?
Kururu smiles as she opens her jaw like an alligator.
The thing I love most in this world is handsome guys and the thing I hate most is young girls!
An exasperated Kururu kicked the ground hard and lunged at me.
Chapter 99
Ugh.
Shes very powerful when you see her up close.
This intimidating feeling wouldnt be something that could be produced by size alone.
The aura of a powerful being, ording to her numbers, oozed from Kururus entire body.
Master! Ill take care of this!

I looked in the direction of the voice and saw Carolina, who was in vampire mode, ready for battle.
Looking at it again, Carolinas status is still great.
But, nevertheless.
Our current opponent is still formidable.
Guh!
When ites to simple hand-to-handbat, the value of strength may be the most important factor.
Carolina received Kururus huge fist, which caused her body to be lifted into the air in a big way.
Huhuhu~. I knew youde back after all, Carolina!
Kururus expression was tinged with joy as she struck Carolina.
Perhaps Kururu was expecting a battle with Carolina?
I thought enough.
(Im going to take the attacks from Kururu for a while. Master, you must find an opening and throw the ball).
(Understood!)
This is the strategy.
Use my Contact skill to keep in touch with Carolina, and gradually get away of Kururus sight.
Weak! Youre getting weak, Carolina!
After all, Kururus fighting ability is out of the ordinary.
I couldnt believe it until I saw it with my own eyes, but, Carolina, fighting with Kururu, seemedpletely overwhelmed.
Three hundred years ago I was no match for you. But not now! You, who weakened yourself by mixing with humans, and I, who didnt give up my pride as a demon! Thats the difference between winning and losing, isnt it?
Ku!
This is bad! Carolina cant resist anymore!
The truth is, it was better to keep a little more of her attention.
But we dont have that luxury anymore!
(Come oooooon!)
Its the perfect time to take her by surprise.
The Capsule Ball, which was thrownpletely by surprise, should have hit Kururus body at that moment.
What?!
But, nevertheless.
At that moment, when I was sure of our victory, something surprising happened.
Thats a wind armor?
The strong wind blowing around Kururus body made my ball bounce mercilessly.
Huhuhu. Youre an idiot! Ive heard from my men that your balls have magical powers! Ill rescue Stephanieter!
!
She She got me!
The purpose of having the smander in the hideout was to discern my fighting style?
Think.
How do I get the Ball to Kururu?
From the looks of it wind armor seems to be constantly activated even after the ball is thrown.
In other words, its not the kind of thing that you can make your way through by surprise.
..
Or could it be that shes just stuffed inside?
No matter how much I think about it or how hard I try I cant think of a strategy to ovee this problem.
Its been like this since I got my first monster Aphrodite.
In the past, my capsule ball skill has be a must against better opponents due to its surprise factor.
But, nevertheless.
This skill has the disadvantage that it can be easily countered once the opponent knows how it works.
When I realized the fatal weakness of the capsule ball, I went into a state of despair.
Chapter 100
So.
This became a one-sided game.
Ha. Yes, that face! Thats the face of despair I wanted to see on you!
Kaha!
Every time Kururu threw a fist, Carolina looked distressed.
Ma Master
Kururus strength is absolute, and she did not give Carolina the opportunity to reach her.
Meanwhile, the capsule ball, which was our lifeline, has beenpletely incapacitated by the wind armor.
I threw the ball a couple of times after that, but she didnt even pay attention to it.
Kazehaya, you bastard! What the hell are you doing?!
She must have been frustrated with me because I couldnt do anything to her.
Rust grabbed me by the chest, revealing her anger.
Carolina-sama is in trouble! Hurry up and think of something to win this!
Im already doing it. But this time, were screwed. I cant think of anything that can beat Kururu.
Firstly, the basic specifications are too different.
Its hard to make a move if the overwhelmingly superior opponent can read your hand.
Tsk. You werent what I expected, Kazehaya. Ill have to do it myself!
Hey, hey.
Think about your status!
Theres not a single positive thing thats going toe out of ordinary the Rust meddling in a battle of such great proportions.
You idiot, dont do it!
I dont care. There are some things a man must do even if it means risking his life!
I got there just in time to stop Rust from grabbing him before he charged forward.
And bam!
The sh of an idea in the back of my mind.
Now I get it.
Risking your life?
I may have found a way out of this desperate situation.
Thank you, Rust. Thanks to you, I now know how to deal with Kururu.
It was a simple thing to do if you think about it.
The enemy is an overwhelmingly superior opponent to begin with.
First of all, it was a mistake to try to do something about it in a direct way.
Just dont let me out of your sight, Rust.
I summoned the Adamite Golem, with the aim of turning tables the situation.
Whoa!
This is the first time Ive taken control of the Adamite Golems body through Soul Maniption, but Im surprised his eyes are higher than I thought they would be.
Da-Damn Kazehaya! How do you sleep now?! Whos going to help Carolina-sama if you fall asleep?!
Rust seemed to panic when he saw me suddenly unconscious.
I can exin the situation with my Contact skill, but right now, Im wasting every second I have.
(Ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!)
I take control of Adamite Golem and charge towards Kururu with all my might.
Ha, a golem? What can such a weak monster do?
In fact, under normal circumstances, Adamite Golem could definitely not oppose Kururu.
But, nevertheless.
Even if it cant win in terms of status, its still ahead of her in terms of body size.
Even if it cannot do any harm, if it tackles her with its full weight, it should at least be able to move Kururus body.
What the
Hahaha.
My goal wasnt to hurt her with a tackle.
It was to plunge Kururu with my own body into the magma with a suicide attack.
Tsk. Bastard let me go!
When I dove into the magma as I was clutching Kururus body, I could hear a Juu and the sound of her body burning.
Wow.
Thats what the inside of magma looked like, right?
You cant see anything in the sea of red fire.
But its okay.
Anyway, for now, I just must concentrate on not letting go the person in front of me.
Gaaaaaaaaahhhh!
After a while, Kururus screams were heard.
Well, I guess I was right.
Fire Attack Immunity | Grade A | Passive
(Immunity from fire attacks.)
If it is an Adamite Golem with the Fire Attacks Immunity skill, it can move freely even if it is inside the magma.
But, however.
Our status difference was reversed by changing the field!
Wha-What nonsense. I, who was going to be the Demon Lord to be here now
It was impossible to watch Kururus expression because she was in the magma.
However, it was easy to read the feelings of surprise and despair in her words.
Soul Maniption Skill release!
To tell you the truth, I would have liked to taste the feel of the Subus chest, but of course I dont have time for that now.
With my feet on the ground, I rushed to the side of the magma and put Adamite Golem back on the ball.
That was close.
If it had stayed with Kururu even a little longer, it would have been too far away to put Adamite Golem back on the ball.
Kazehaya, good job!
Master!
They were probably relieved to be no longer in a battle that would have cost them their lives.
Carolina and Rust embraced my body tightly.
Hahahaha.
Just being able to feel this feeling in my chest was worth the effort.
Vampire and Subus.
The long and fierce battle came to an end then the two maids kept me trapped between their breasts.
Chapter 101
Ill tell you what happened next.
Apparently, Rikku-san was not the only Demon Hunter who was captured by Kururu.
After sessfully defeating the Dragon Empress Kururu, we decided to search herir and free the captured Demon Hunters.
Souta-kun, Ill have to thank you for thister. If you dont mind, would you tell me where you live?
Rikku-san and I had a lot to discuss, but she wanted to investigate Kururus hideout in detail, so we had to split up immediately.
Of course, for Rikku-san, the demon hunter, Kururus hideout could be a treasure, but for me, it is as uninteresting as apleted dungeon.
Most of all, I am tired now.
I was eager to return to the mansion as soon as possible andy down to rest.
So, I decided to leave their research to Rikku-san and return home early.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
After returning to the house, it was time for the usual demonbination.
Hey, Sota. Dont be pretentious, just tell me!
Did you get anything from the Hiryu Range? Souta-sans expression is more confident than usual.
I had gathered the three-usual people: Aphrodite, Carolina and Ciel in the garden as an invitation to see something interesting.
So, I summoned the Winged Lizard and the Smander with all my might.
Kupo.
Gushaaaaaaaaaa.
How pitiful! If we look closely, theyre both pitiful monsters.
The Winged Lizard ispletely the same as the Lizard Man in appearance, although it has respectable wings.
Despite being a respectable dragon in appearance, the Smander has no wings.
They both looked a little out of ce with my ideal dragon.
What would happen if I mixed these two monsters?
To tell you the truth, Ive been waiting for it in secret ever since I got the Smander in Kururusir.

A monster that is of a medium race of the dragon race.
It boasts the greatest fighting ability of any dragon of the same rank.

In the world of video games, wyvern is a monster that is synonymous with the orthodox dragon.
t is the most popr dragon in the UK and many organizations have the illustration of a Wyvern on their logos.
No~.
My heart jumped when I saw the name of the Wyvern on the Turtle Car on the way home.
This happiness is too much not to share with others!
It was for this reason that Aphrodite and the others were gathered in the garden.
Just one move away from happening.
The next moment I chose yes.
The two monsters were wrapped in a light that eventually became more intense.
Huooooooo!
Wooooow! Thats great!
Thats it!
This is what Ive been waiting for all along!
The dragon that emerged from the light looked exactly like a real dragon.
Whoooa! Thats great! A real dragon!
An ancient dragon Wyvern? To be able to possess a high-ranking dragon as expected from the master!
Mm-hmm.
After all, itsmon for both men and women to get excited when they see a live dragon.
From now on, you can call me Souta the Dragon Master!
Emm, this is what Souta said he wanted to show? I honestly dont understand the difference between this and the Lizard Man.
There was only one person who came out with a vague answer, but Ill let it go.
Aphrodite.
I dont mean to be rude, but I think you need to learn a little more about the male mind, dont you?
Nice to meet you, Wyvern.
Hooooooooooooooooooooo!
Thus, I got the dragon I had longed for through an unexpected method.
[1]For some reason, the author decided to change Rusts name from Trizarty to Coldrat. I have no idea why.
Chapter 102
Souta-kun, to be honest, I dont know how to thank you.
A few dayster.
Rikku-san, who hadpleted her mission to investigate Kururus hideout, had arrived at my home as promised.
This is the money we made selling items from Kururus hideout. I want you to take it.
Hey, all this?
Then Rikku-san offered me a sack that felt heavy.
At least, I estimated that there was about 100 million kol.
The sack I received from Rikku-san was filled with arge amount of tinum coins.
Oh, yes. It was actually going to be more money. Its a pity that Kururus subordinates managed to take some valuables. Im sorry I failed to stop them.
So thats what happened.
Was it a mistake to leave the research of Kururus hideout to Rikku-san alone?
If there were so many treasures hidden in their, perhaps I should have joined in.
Oh, yes. It is true.
I learnedter that there were many underlings waiting in Kururusir.
Thank Goodness that Kururu, who was obsessed with her unfinished business with Carolina, didnt ask for help from her men.
If Kururus subordinates had attacked as an army, I am sure we would not have had a chance.
However, it is hard to believe that her subordinates would have been able to collect the valuable goods and leave the ce.
I guess this is also due to Kururus bad behavior on a daily basis.
Carolina-san, right? Im so sorry! Ive been so rude to you.
.
Right after she gave me my reward.
Rikku-san bowed deeply to Carolina.
Apparently, I was wrong. In the past, I have unterally assumed that demons are evil and never stopped to look more closely. But when I saw that you did not withdraw from the battle with Kururu to protect Souta-kun, I decided to change my mind. There are several types of demons. This time, I realized that the act of attacking people with a prejudiced image is the real evil.
I see. Im d you could understand how wonderful the master is.
Is it right to judge that this could be a reconciliation?
In that sense, Carolina is basically inexpressive, so its hard to know what shes thinking.
Come to think of it, defeating Kururu was Rikku-sans wish, wasnt it? What are you going to do now?
Royal Capital. So, the royal capital
From what Ive heard, the Royal Capital Wonderk is located east of the Hiryu Mountain Range, far to the east.
Id like to go there at least once, but it takes half a day, even if I use a Turtle Car, and thats what bothers me.
Ciel, youve always wanted to go to the Royal Capital, right? Will you apany me on my journey?
Eh. Ehhhhhhhhhh!?
Ciel let out a disconcerted voice when suddenly she was asked to speak.
Tha-Thats ho-how do I say it
Ciel staggered at Rikku-sans suggestion.
Wait a moment.
Ciel is an indispensable cksmith in our group.
Even if my opponent is Rikku-san, I will not allow her to take her!
Haha. Its a joke. I know youre already in love.
What? Whos in love with who?
Souta-kun, take good care of Ciel for me.
Wai- Huh?!? Maaaster!?
In the end, that was thest thing she said, and Rikku-san disappeared from our sight.
I feel like she dropped a big bomb at the end but Ill stop digging so deep.
Chapter 103
Its the height of summer in Adelheid, this alternative world.
The cicadas on the trees in the garden sing so much that it bes annoying
I, Kazehaya Sota, was lying like a dead man on the edge of the well-ventted house.
Its hot.
Its too hot.
Damn it! Its times like this that I hate alternate worlds!
For a gamer like me, this environment is unbearable.
In thest battle against the Dragon Empress Kururu, we got 100 million col, which is a lot of money.
But no matter how much money it is, in this world, you cant even install an air conditioner in the room.
Sou~ta~. How long are you going to keep onzing around? If this goes on, defeating the Demon Lord will only be possible in dreams~.
If you say it like that you just make it seem impossible.
The name of the beautiful girl rolling beside me is Aphrodite.
Aphrodite, with blonde hair and blue eyes, has a wless appearance, although she is a self-proimed goddess of beauty.
To borrow an old-fashioned expression, its kind of brazen.
Such a beautiful girl is lying in light clothes.
Normally, I would have been turned on, but
Anyway, it was too hot right now for that.
Master, is your back okay?
The name of the beautiful girl who knelt down and called me respectfully was Carolina.
Carolina, with her silver hair, red eyes and slim figure, exudes a charm that is different from that of Aphrodite.
As expected from a cold beauty.
Even in the scorching heat, Carolina kept her style.
Water Storm.
Next thing I know, my backs turned.
I heard a familiar magic spell.
A wind containing tiny grains of ice began to blow from the Carolina palm.
Oh, great!
Thats great, Carolina!
Ive~co~me~back~to~life~
Seriously, its getting cold!
The grains of ice bump and tingle a bit, which is a bit ufortable, but its quite bearable.
Im d youre happy. I trained myself to control the intensity of the magic, and I was right to do so.
Hey! Souta, thats cheating! Let me do that too!
The range of Carolinas magic is only the size of a human.
Aphrodite feels the fresh breeze and clings to my body, making it reach only her.
Ehehe, ehehe. How cool~
Youzy goddess! Wind thief!
Mugyuuuuuu.
The wind only reaches Aphrodite as she presses her soft body against me.
Normally, I would have been excited, but
Anyway, it was too hot right now for that.
Im sorry.
I guess I embellished the story a little.
To tell you the truth, Im a little better now, but cooling my body is still a priority right now.
Im going to expand the scope of magic a little bit. The difficulty with this technique is that it requires a lot of concentration and cant be continued for very long
Carolina exined apologizing, deftly extending the reach of the cool breeze for two people.
Ah~.
It feels good~.
As usual, Carolina is toopetent.
I wish I could get a certain goddess to be even one tenth as talented as Caroline.
Caro, I want you to be with me always.
What you should have in this other world is apetent maid.
If Carolina is here, I feel I can spend the summer in this other world without air conditioning.
~~~!
Then something unexinable happened.
Somehow, Carolinasplexion became red as a tomato, and a gust of wind blew so hard that my body was involuntarily blown away.
Guhaaa!
Fugya!
Ouch, ouch!
What in the world?
Ice pebbles, which had grown to the size of a baseball, attacked me and Aphrodite.
I-Im so sorry! This magic requires very delicate control. I was so happy with the Masters statement, my concentration identally faded.
Emm
I wonder where there was such an element for her to getting like that in my statement.
Carolina, who had failed in her magic, had a look of despair on her face, as if the world was going to be destroyed tomorrow.
I-I was prepared for this to happen, Master. Use this knife to cut my throat!
How did ite to this?!
Carolina being so loyal makes me happy, but sometimes she gets out of control in a strange way.
If its so hot, why not go to the beach?
The name of the girl who looks in our direction and made such a suggestion is Ciel OTelrod.
Ciel, with a small build of five feet, has the beauty of a pet.
Right now.
Im in the process of having Ciel make a certain tool for me.
Ciel, now, what?
Uh, yes. That is why the sea. On a hot day like this, you have to take a quick bath, dont you think?
Why didnt I realize how simple this was?
The idea of going to the beach because its so hot was never thought of by a non-traditional person like me in the first ce. Yeah.
So far Ive wondered, how do you lock yourself in an air-conditioned room on a hot day? What was I thinking?
Why is that?
Theres nothing fun about going to the beach by yourself.
But, nevertheless.
Its different since I was summoned to the other world!
Now there are lots of pretty girls who could go to the beach with me!
Surrounded by pretty girls in swimsuits, the beach must be absolutely fun.
Yes! Tomorrow well go to the beach! This is the month of summer improvement!
Thats it!
Thats one thing I was wrong about.
Sure, theres a lot to hate about summer, but its not just a lousy season.
Im sure its a lot of fun to see girls in swimsuits and then see more girls in swimsuits!
Chapter 104
First of all, let me say that Im not gay.
Im a straight guy who likes pretty girls in general.
Thats what I really want you to believe.
Kuu I came as I promised, Kazehaya Souta.
The sun was setting and the temperature in the room was dropping a bit now that it waster.
I called the maid from the servants room to my room.
The name of the beautiful girl with the short skirt and plump thighs is Rust Trizarti.
She is the beautiful Subus girl who changed sex from a man to a woman, for a variety of reasons.
Hey, Rust. Youre wearingthat, arent you?
!
Rusts cheeks blushed as she feebly shook her ass back and forth.
Well, I guess well find out. Take your clothes off piece by piece.
A Monster Tamer has the ability to give an absolutemand to an enved demon.
At mymand, Rust slowly takes off her maids clothes that shes wearing, albeit with shame.
Damn it What the hell is this?! This underwear is!
Rust screamed.
The underwear I ordered her to wear has an embarrassing design that makes you want to congratte yourself, saying I found something good.
Her breasts were such that only the nipples were barely covered, and her ass was almost exposed.
Youre a goddamn hothead! Even though mentally Im a man, you dont care who as long as they have a womans body!
No, no.
Youre a subus, so dont call me a hothead.
Youre even reproaching me in that lewd outfit.
Dont get the wrong idea. This is just a punishment to rehabilitate you.
Rust often talks to others in a disrespectful tone of voice.
Yeah.
This is not meant to be erotic in any way.
Being a man in the first ce, it would be humiliating for Rust to wear erotic underwear.
Rust, who ran a fraudulent casino and swindled many people out of their money, is a big sinner who should have been imprisoned under normal circumstances.
Thats why I encourage Rust to rehabilitate herself by punishing her in this way.
Therefore, this is not in the erotic sense. Not at all.
Okay, enough chitchat. I wonder if you can rub my shoulders while youre like this.
Rust grinds her teeth in frustration as I give my new order.
Wow!
Rusts massages are pretty good!
Ive been thinking about it for a long time, Rust is a versatile, home-skilled girl.
From now on, Ill call her and have her massage my shoulders from time to time.
Hey, hey. Rust.
Hm? Now what do you want?
Th-This girl!
Dont tell me she hasnt noticed!
Thats right.
Only recently did her body be a womans body thanks to my Demon Combination skill, so she probably hasnt assimted the distance between her and the opposite sex.
However, even so, I am aware of it and her tits are pressing against my back, this is embarrassing!
No.
Im not a homosexual, so I cant be nervous at all.
If anything, I dont like heroines with tsundere attributes.
I dont want to say anything about other peoples inclinations, but Im a little worried about the future as far as tsunderes are concerned.
(TN: I feel you, bro.)
(Shit. Kazehaya Souta One day Im going to return this humiliation to you a hundred-fold!)
While Im making all kinds of excuses in my head.
Rust, who was rubbing my shoulders from behind, was dering her resentment mentally thanks to my Contact skill.
Chapter 105
The next morning.
I decided to stop by the Adventurers Guild before heading out to sea where I had nned to go.
Why?
Just going to the beach is no different than going to y.
If youre going to the sea, it would be efficient to take on rted missions.
Hahaha.
Sessful men are often able to bnce work and y.
Oh, yeah. Its true.

I havent raised my level in thest while, so its a happy harvest.
What kind of demons will we find on todays expedition?
Now that I have more money and better stats, Im going to enjoy my work as much as I can.

Chloe Grice
Race: Cait Sith
Age: 18
Um a quest to subjugate sea monsters. One moment, please.
When I arrived at the guild, Chloe, the receptionist, was there to greet me as always.
Chloe, the receptionist, is a beautiful high-ss girl with a small body and semi-long ck hair.
The cat earsing out of the top of her head are too dazzling.
Oh, its a bit risky, but there were quests like this!
Emergency Quest
Defeat the giant squid
Required Grade: G
Condition of Sess: Defeat a Kraken that appears on the coast of Ss
Reward: 15,000,000 col
Repetition: Not possible
Chloe pulled a request form from her file.
The required grade is G.
Same as before to defeat the cockatrice.
Apparently, the Emergency Quest is prepared to allow any adventurer to participate.
15 million col? Is this monster, the Kraken, really that strong?
The most lucrative mission Ive ever done was 3 million Col.
If you consider that even the B-Grade cockatrice was 3 million, the Kraken can be a strong S-Grade opponent.
Certainly, the Kraken is a strong opponent. However, I believe its fighting ability itself is on par with the cockatrice Souta-san defeated earlier.
So whats this reward for?
The established reward amount is five times the amount of the samebat ability.
Theres more to it than meets the eye.
The adventurers who have headed out to defeat the Kraken on the Ss Coast have been hit by a typhoon from time to time, and it has been disastrous. I was told it was such that they could only think that someone was manipting the weather. As a result, no one wanted toplete the quest anymore, so the amount of reward increased.
I see.
If you think about it, this quest to subjugate the Kraken could be very tasty.
Because it is, isnt it?
Ive seen a lot of magic since I came to this world, but the skill to manipte the weather is impossible even with Carolinas magic.
If my prediction is correct, it is only the result of widespread rumors, and people around me fear it.
Chapter 106
I epted a quest from the guild and decided to return to the mansion instead of going directly to the sea.
Not forgetting to buy a swimsuit at the tool store when I did.
I decided to keep each one of them in the ball, as I selected the swimsuits at the request of the girls and to my own taste.
Oh, Souta-san! Ive been waiting for you!
Ciel, is the sample articleplete?
Its ready! As you can see, it fits the size of the Wyverns body perfectly!
Thats right. What was the article I asked Ciel to do a while back? It was the stirrups that were needed to ride the dragon.
Woooooooow!
Whoooo! This is so cool!
The orthodox dragon, the Wyvern, using the stirrups looked even more dignified than before.
Its every mans dream to ride a dragon and go on an adventure!
Theres only one problem. Because of the wyverns body size, only two people will be able to ride it. So, the rest will have to stay on the ball until we reach the sea.
Yes.
So that happens.
As expected, riding with everyone would be a great burden to the wyvern.
Its hard to decide who to put on his back.
By the way, I have a question, who wants to ride the wyvern first?
I could feel the bodies of the three girls twitching.
The atmosphere felt more tense than anything else.
Oh~.
I guess the girls want to ride dragons too.
Good job, wyvern!
Here~! Me, me, me! Im the goddess of beauty, and I think I deserve to be first in line!
I would like to apply for the job, even if its presumptuous. My ability to fly will be useful if you ever think of riding a dragon safely.
I want to ride it too! The stirrups I made this time are just prototypes, so Id like to see how theyre really used and adjust them.
Hmm-hmm.
Other than Aphrodite, there seems to be a legitimate reason for the other two to be in the back.
If youre thinking about safety, carolina.
If you want to improve your stirrups, you should choose Ciel.
Okay, okay, okay.
The question is, who to choose?
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Five minutester.
I put the girls back on the ball and decided to ride on the back of the wyvern with Aphrodite.
Huhu. Well done, Souta! You know, its pretty obvious you were going to pick me first!
I wonder if she was so happy to have been chosen over the others.
Aphrodite, who had sat in the back, was in a better mood than ever.
By~ the~ way~! I wonder why Souta chose me as his first choice.
Aphrodites bright eyes hurt.
I cant.
I cant tell just because she has big boobs, or because theyd be getting pushed on my back when we rode the dragon.
Ahahaha. I dont know. Theres no particrly deep reason. Really.
Mmm~. There has to be at least one reason for that, right? Be honest with me. Cmon, cmon!
Theyre really big tits, arent they? Seriously.
Theyve been moving from here to there on my back and we havent even taken off!
All right! Come on, wyvern!
Woooow!
I give the signal, and the wyvern ps its wings and takes off.
This is great! This is amazing, Souta!
Ye-yeah. Great
Every time the body of the wyvern moved, the sensation of Aphrodites chest ran down my back.
An overwhelming pleasure!
I suppose the feeling of ascension into the heavens refers to such a situation.
Aphrodites breasts, which were incrediblyrge, were subjected to the vibrations of take-off, and their destructive power knew no limit.
In terms of male romance, I feel that the breasts pressing against my back have as much potential as riding a dragon.
The Novel will be updated first on this website. Come back and
