Chapter 26: 26

New week report and lunch date

***---***

 

After breakfast on fire day of the new week, I immediately headed to the guild.

 

This is to tell Donovan-san about the series of events that happened on the weekend and the rescue operation using the actual battle in the Devil's Forest.

 

The guild is closed on rest days except in emergencies.

 

This morning as it was the beginning of the week, it was more crowded than usual in front of the bulletin board where the requests were posted.

 

While a bearded old man and a muscular man scrutinize the requests while hitting their shoulders and elbows, the appearance of Ridner and the others is appearing and disappearing this morning.

 

Yeah, that might be a kind of discipline, and it looks fun just by looking at it.

 

At the wall outside the crowd, there is Muell-san, a cat-eared angel, Gilik, a dog who doesn't have to be there, and Manon, a handsome girl.

 

Uh ... Manon is tilting her head a little and waving at me a little.

 

Isn't it okay to take her home? Is it no good? Hey, isn't it?

 

"Good morning, Muell-san, Gilik-san, Manon."

 

"Good morning, Kent."

 

"Snort ..."

 

"Good morning, Kent, how are you feeling?"

 

Hmm ... I wonder if he's ever going to say hello, this mutt.

 

Compared to that, Manon cares about my physical condition, so it's okay to take her home, right? Is it no good? Why not?

 

"Kent, was something wrong? No way ..."

 

"Hmm, I won't apologize because it was during training."

 

"No, I was a little tired and anemic, and it has nothing to do with that case, and I'll get back at you soon, so you don't have to apologize."

 

"This Chibisuke ... Isn't he courageous ..."

 

"I have something to do with Donovan-san for a bit. Would you like to go with me?"

 

"This ... I don't think I'll go ..."

 

I glared back from below to meet Gilik's gaze as he glared down at me.

 

"Jeez, fighting so early in the morning, Gilik and Kent, behave!"

 

Hyah-Hmm, so early in the week, Muell-san already scolded me!

 

"Hmm, it's not a fight, I'm just disciplining this Chibisuke who doesn't know what he's doing."

 

"If I'm going to be disciplined, I hope it's not by you."

 

"First of all ..."

 

"What is it ... ?"

 

"Jeez ... hey Gilik, let's go find a request, Manon and Kent see you later."

 

"Y, yes ... un, understood."

 

Ah ... Muell-san, the cat-eared angel, pulled Gilik and went to the bulletin board.

 

Hmm ... The light pink tail is swaying.

 

Isn't it fluffy? I can just rub my cheeks all day long, right?

 

"Kent ... where are you looking?"

 

"Uhi, no, no, I wonder what kind of work Muell-san and Gilik-san will do ..."

 

"I think it's a gathering job."

 

"Is it collecting medicinal herbs?"

 

"Yeah, Muell-san wants to be a pharmacist."

 

"Oh, right, she said that ..."

 

"Wasn't Kent just looking at Muell-san's chest and not listening?"

 

"Well, that's not the case ... I just forgot."

 

That's right, I'm just gazing at her tail.

 

"Is that right ... By the way, don't you have business with Donovan-san?"

 

"Oh, that's right, I have to hurry ..."

 

Today is the beginning of the week, so it's a day when there is a beginner's class.

 

Donovan-san is probably a lecturer, so I have to hurry.

 

When I went to the counter, Donovan-san had just come out of the back.

 

"Good morning, Donovan-san."

 

"Oh, Kent, good morning, I can't practice because I have a class today."

 

"Yes, I'm sorry when you're busy, but I have something to say about the 'matter we were talking about' ..."

 

"Hmm ... follow me."

 

"Yes."

 

I told Manon to wait a moment and headed to the drawing room on the second floor with Donovan-san.

 

"What happened, what happened?"

 

"Yes, actually ..."

 

When I talked about Funayama, Donovan-san's expression grew angry.

 

"You've got to be kidding me ..."

 

"Yes ..."

 

Donovan-san's fist, clenched tightly, and looks like a weapon that could kill a person with a single blow.

 

Donovan-san expressed distress when I continued by saying that Camilla's purpose was to compensate for the decrease in cultivated land due to desertification by cultivating the Devil's Forest.

 

Camilla's purpose is probably a sign of conflict that can only be dealt with by invading Volzard.

 

So, I talked about rescue operations using the actual battles in the Devil's Forest.

 

"I see, you will use the place that comes out from the other side ... it's not bad."

 

A fearless smile returned to Donovan-san's face.

 

"So what time will this happen?"

 

"I don't know yet, but maybe it'll happen unexpectedly soon."

 

"Well, then we need to be ready to receive them."

 

"Yes, I'm coming through the forest, so it's better to contact the garrison, right?"

 

"Well, I can do that much. By the way, are you sure you can remove the slave bracelets?"

 

"Yes, I'm going to smear the removed bracelet with monster blood and throw it away."

 

"Huh, okay, if possible, be prepared to change clothes, tear off the clothes they were wearing, smear them with blood, and throw them away too."

 

"Oh, that's right, I'll do that."

 

For changing clothes, I'll move everything left in the boarding house to the shadow storage.

 

I also had women's clothes, so I should be able to do something about it.

 

"Okay, Kent, let me know as soon as the date of the operation is decided. Is it okay to accept them like with you?"

 

"Yes, it's fine, thank you."

 

When I returned to the first floor after parting from Donovan-san, who was waiting for his instructor's work, the hustle and bustle of the morning was completley over, and Manon, who seemed to be bored, stood by the wall alone.

 

Her sloppy expression became brighter as soon as she saw me.

 

Isn't it good already? This isn't a misunderstanding? But wait, it's possible that it's not just a romantic feeling, but just friendship ... which one? I don't know ...

 

"Oh, I made you wait, Manon."

 

"Yeah, have you finished talking to Donovan-san?"

 

"Yeah, he got angry because I couldn't manage my physical condition ..."

 

"It's true, Kent always overdoes it, even this morning you were poking at Gilik-san ..."

 

"Because if I don't say that much, he won't really do it when we practice."

 

"Well, Kent is the only one in our generation to say that."

 

"Is that so?"

 

"Yes, Gilik-san has the ability to dive alone in the dungeon."

 

"That's right ... Then, if I can beat Gilik-san, can I dive into the dungeon?"

 

When I said that, Manon stared at me from the front.

 

Eh, Manon-chan, aren't you too close? Do you really want to kiss?

 

"Does Kent really want to beat Gilik?"

 

"Yeah, that's my immediate goal."

 

"Huh, your immediate goal ... do you really want to be stronger?"

 

"Because Gilik-san isn't the strongest in Volzard, is he?"

 

"That's right ... I usually don't think that way."

 

"Why? Manon is a girl, so you don't have to think about it, but I think it's normal for a man to try."

 

But if you think about it, I wouldn't have thought that I would want to beat Gilik when I was in Japan.

 

Even Funayama, who is weaker than Gilik, I didn't think I would win or go against him.

 

Huh? Maybe I'm becoming more warlike due to the influence of the evil skeleton?

 

"But, Kent was judged useless, right?"

 

"Well, uh ... yeah, that's right, why?"

 

"Gilik-san is a knight type and has a high rate of physical strengthening."

 

"Hmm ... that's right."

 

"That's why it seems that it's still lacking in stability, but it's rumored that he can instantly strengthen his body by about five times."

 

"Ah ... I see ..."

 

Certainly, I heard from Reinhardt that the rate and duration of enhancement was important.

 

Five times was about the top.

 

"So it's hard to say, but I think it's difficult for Kent to win."

 

"Hmm ... yeah ... but I'm just getting started and I got a hit in before this."

 

"Yeah, that was cool! No matter how careless he was, it's amazing against Gilik-san."

 

"Well, right? But after that, I was beaten up ..."

 

Well, the girl told me that I looked cool, maybe it's the first time since I've been born, it's a little embarrassing, but you can say more, Manon-chan.

 

I'm the type who grows by being complimented.

 

"But Kent is amazing, you're getting stronger and stronger, you're rushing towards Gilik-san, and I'm scared and my legs are shaking."

 

"Ah, that was like I had my blood rush to my head, I was angry with Donovan-san, Mufufufu ..."

 

"By the way, Kent is talking to Donovan-san without hesitation."

 

"Well, because Donovan-san is tough, but kind."

 

"That's right ... he's powerful ..."

 

"Well, maybe I'm getting used to it?"

 

Maybe it's because I've been watching Reinhardt's rampaging for a while, but I feel like I'm getting more and more immune.

 

"Oh, by the way, is Manon a knight type? Or a mage type?"

 

"I'm a mage type, so I'm a little worried if I can finish the knight class."

 

I don't know about the contents of the classes on wind day and soil day, but if it is a condition to win against three people, it is certainly quite difficult.

 

Moreover, I feel that with the physical strength of Manon, a girl, it's tough.

 

By the way, I feel that there weren't many women in the combat training.

 

"Hey, Manon, is it rare for a girl to be an adventurer?"

"Hmm ... it seems that it's not so rare in other cities, but it may be rare in Volzard."

 

"It that because the Devil's Forest is near?"

 

"Yeah, there are monsters in the forests of other cities, but it seems that you rarely encounter powerful monsters, but it's not uncommon for ogres to appear in the forests near Volzard."

 

"Oh? Ogres and rock ogres are different, right?"

 

"Kent ... You learned it in the first class, did you forget it?"

 

"Well ... oh, yeah, yeah, I learned, I learned, that's right."

 

"Kent, you don't remember ..."

 

"Well, that's not the case, I learned that ogres and rock ogres are different, I remember properly."

 

Isn't it? It's a different thing because it has a different name, isn't it?

 

"Rock ogres are considered to be a superior species of ogres, and I don't know how they change, but they seem to be the same ogres ... you didn't remember, right?"

 

"Uh ... I'm sorry, I forgot."

 

"I can't help it anymore, Kent ... did you learn a little at school?"

 

No, Manon-chan, there are no ogres, rock ogres, or even goblins in our world ... I can't say that.

 

"I didn't learn much at school because there weren't many monsters in the place where I lived."

 

"Ah, that's right, hey, what kind of country did Kent live in?"

 

"Well, the country I lived in?"

 

"Yeah, I've never been out of Volzard, so I'm interested in talking about other countries."

 

"Hmm ... my country ..."

 

You can't just talk about Japan.

 

There's no magic, but you can fly in the sky, go far on the bullet train, and talk to the other side of the planet on the Internet ... it's hard to believe.

 

"I lived in an island country surrounded by the sea."

 

"Hey ... what kind of island is it?"

 

"Well, even if you say an island, it's a fairly large island, and it's an island made up of many volcanoes."

 

"A volcano is it, doesn't that erupt? I learned it at school."

 

"Yeah, once every few decades, or once every hundreds of years."

 

"Is that so? It's not always erupting ..."

 

"That's right, because an eruption can cause great damage, such as volcanic ash and lava."

 

"That's right ... a volcano ... I want to see ..."

 

"I want to show you, but I don't know how to go home ..."

 

"Well, if you save money, you can go home, right?"

 

"Yeah, it feels like I'm drifting on a boat, so how can I get home ..."

 

"Hmm, hmm, that's right Kent, you can't go home ..."

 

Oh, why is it Manon looks happy that I can't go home?

 

"Then Kent has been in Volzard all the time, right?"

 

"Hmm ... I wonder ... I wonder if I should go to other cities in Landshelt ..."

 

"That's right ..."

 

Hmm? It seems that Manon is a bit sad, oh, do you want me to invite you?

 

"At that time, will Manon go with me?"

 

"Eh? Ehhhhh ... with me ...?"

 

"Yeah, but I don't know what time it will be, and I don't know if I can go."

 

"Muu ..."

 

Hmm? I invited her, but the reaction seems strange, but why?

 

"Don't you really want to go with Muell-san despite saying that?"

 

"Eh? Muell-san? With Muell-san, it seems that Gilik-san will come with ..."

 

"That's right, it's decided that you have to defeat Gilik-san."

 

"Well, you can have him carry the luggage, though."

 

"Ehhhhh ... You're not really thinking about that, right?"

 

"Well, even if I was to invite Muell-san, I couldn't go to another city with just having started to work and not having any savings."

 

"That's right, it's impossible right now."

 

"Yeah, I have a lot of work to do, so I'm not going to leave Volzard for the time being."

 

"Oh, yeah ... that's right, not so suddenly ... my heart's not ready yet ..."

 

"Hmm? Did you say something, Manon?"

 

"uh, yeah, nothing, this story ... yeah, nothing."

 

My classmates probably want to go back to Japan right away, but honestly I don't really want to go back.

 

I think it would be more fun to live here by making the most of cheat abilities, rather than returning to Japan and being treated as a joke.

 

I wonder if I can help everyone to return to Japan and stay in Volzard ...

 

I wonder how many years I can stay in a boarding house ... I wonder if I can buy a house because there are so many magic stones.

 

How much does it cost to pay taxes? How much do you spend on a home in the first place?

 

"Kent ... Kent, Kent!"

 

"Yhya! What, what, Manon."

 

"You didn't hear me again, what about your job today?"

 

"Oh ... I was talking and forgot."

 

"It's already lunchtime."

 

"Guha ... I'm off today too ... I'm sorry, Manon."

 

"Well, no, I was so absorbed in talking that it wasn't just Kent's fault."

 

"I'll apologize with lunch, do you know any delicious restaurant?"

 

"Well, that's bad, I'll pay for myself."

 

"It's okay, it's okay, I had some extra income ..."

 

"Is that right? Then how about a pasta shop nearby?"

 

"Yeah, let's go there."

 

I've already got a lot of rock ogre magic stones, but I haven't sold them yet, but my pockets are warm.

 

A rock ogre magic stone costs more thna 20,000 Helts, even if it is being estimated cheaply.

 

That means that you can pay the boarding house for more than half a year with just one.

 

There are more than 200 of them, so there is no need to work hard at all.

 

However, this magic stone will be paid to Klaus-san as an acceptance fee when my classmates come to Volzard.

 

Manon's recommended pasta shop was a little further from the guild towards the Devil's Forest.

 

It seems that it is so popular that there is a line at noon, but it's still a little early so I could sit down without waiting.

 

Hmm? Isn't it a bit like a date to have lunch with a girl?

 

Oh, is this a lunch date? Is it a bit like being a normie?

 

"Welcome! Oh, Manon."

 

"Hello, Minuet, I'm here again."

 

"The counter is fine ... oh?"

 

"Today, I'm with my friend ..."

 

"Hey ... it's rare."

 

The pasta shop clerk with greenish hair in a ponytail seems to be Manon's friend.

 

"Hmm ... so you're Kent ... hmm ..."

 

"Ni, nice to meet you ..."

 

What do you think it's a bad insect by the side of Manon?

 

Somehow, I'm being stared at with reproachful eyes.

 

"Hey, hey, Minuet, where should we sit?"

 

"Ah, yeah, please take this seat."

 

Manon's face is bright red for some reason, but I wonder if it's embarrassing to think that she and I are friends.

 

I was shown the menu, but I wasn't sure, so I decided to ask Manon for a recommendation.

 

"What is Manon's recommendation?"

 

"Um ... I think this 'salted meat and cream fresh pasta' is good."

 

"Then, I'll have that."

 

"M, me too ..."

 

"Thank you, salt cream raw, for two!"

 

Minuet had an expression that seemed to want to ask Manon something, but it seems that there is no time to talk slowly since other customers started to enter.

 

Even so, she sometimes casts a smirk at me.

 

Every time Manon turns bright red ... Yeah, I'm sorry I'm not handsome.

 

You don't like an unreliable looking person like me because you think I'm her boyfriend.

 

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, 'Salted meat and cream fresh pasta', En, joy, your, meal ..."

 

Yeah, it smells really good, but I'm worried about the slow intonation, I hope our relationship isn't misunderstood.

 

Hmm? Should it be misunderstood? Which one? Hmm ... Would you like the pasta before it gets cold?

 

In this world, if you don't make a loud noise, it seems OK to slurp pasta.

 

Manon dexterously wound up the slightly wide pasta with a fork, carried it to her small cherry-colored mouth, and slurped the part that squeezed out.

 

Yeah, it's so cute that you can eat three cups of rice while watching Manon eat her food.

 

"Kent, what's wrong? Don't you like it?"

 

"Well, yeah, that's not the case, it's delicious."

 

I was surprised and tried it in a hurry, oh, it's a taste that might become a habit.

 

The salted meat seems to be smoked and has a fluffy smoked aroma, which goes well with the rich cream sauce.

 

The richness of the cream is well-balanced with spices, and it does not interfere with the rich taste, yet it has a refreshing aftertaste.

 

Raw pasta is a little wide, and the exquisitely boiled pasta creates a crisp edge.

 

If you entwine a wide pasta with plenty of sauce and eat it with salted meat, ah ... this strange harmony is unbearable.

 

"Mugumugu ... gokkun, thank you for the feast."

 

"Eh ... Kent, are you tasting and eating it properly?"

 

"Well, of course, it was really good."

 

"Oh yeah ... that's fine, but wait a minute."

 

"Oh, you don't have to hurry, eat slowly."

 

"Kent, would you like seconds?"

 

"Yeah, but it's starting to get crowded, so I'll come again."

 

"Oh, that's true, I'll hurry up too ..."

 

Yeah, Manon, who is eating quickly, is small animal-like and cute, and I feel relieved when I see it.

 

I was grinning when I saw Minuet observing Manon.

 

What kind of relationship do you think it is?

 

When I left the shop, Minuet whispered something in Manon's ear and she squealed.

 

Yeah, girls are good.
