Chapter 130: CH 130

「Argh, S#!%! I’m sleepy! 」

「Lack of sleep? 」

「You’re not sleepy, Jean? 」

「I slept plenty enough. 」

I don’t stay up late now compared to when I was in Japan. Besides, not sure if it’s because of the lifestyle I had after being thrown on the island, but I’m fine sleeping outdoors.

「I also feel slightly the same. Perhaps there’s a sleep-related spirit nearby. 」

Is that it!?

「Even the monsters that normally don’t sleep that much are affected. 」

It’s just as Shiva said. The monsters around us were swaying. We have to slay them right now, though.

「Huh? 」

Hmm, considering the situation, maybe 【Mental Resistance】is doing its job?

I swung 『Zanzenken』while mulling that over. As time went by, more rats started crouching without the intent to attack, and nothing came out even if we went near the bug holes.

「Oh, daifuku. 」

「Daifuku? 」

Everyone turned their gazes on the spot I was staring at.

Two huge white things sat on the ground. They looked quite soft.

「A human… and a cat? 」

The cat’s overcoat is white, but upon closer look, it’s undercoat is ash. Maybe that’s the reason why I saw it as a daifuku.

「The cat appears to be a spirit. 」

「So this guy’s the reason, huh. But why are they here? 」

「Want me to wake them up? 」

If I still had my stick with me then I could’ve poked them.

We decided to deal with the monsters first. They looked like they were sleeping, so we annihilated every single one of them. Not sure whether the task is too easy, but Dinosso looked really sleepy.

We checked the Daifukus again after we secured our safety. I turned off 『Light 』just as a precaution.

「Hello~ Can you hear us? 」

Shiva raised her lantern and called out, but no response.

I took out enough lanterns for each of us, and everyone was holding theirs up.

「Ugh… 」Dinosso.

「…The sleepiness has become more potent. 」Butler.

「Are we too loud? 」Shiva.

Dinosso softly approached, but he stopped before reaching the Daifukus.

「Can’t go any further. 」

He tapped on the air — looks like there’s an invisible wall here. The cat opened its eye a slit to glance at Dinosso before yawning.

I silently took a wooden box out, then peeked at the cat and roughly compared its size with the small box.

It must’ve piqued the cat’s interest when I opened the lid and set it down. It sluggishly got up and entered the box. It perfectly fit inside, as if proving that cats do have fluid bodies.

I gently covered the box.

「… 」

The trio stared at me.

「What to do now? 」

「No, dunno, even if you ask me. 」

「Perhaps it must have been better if we came up with a plan first before capturing it? 」

「Oh dear. 」

Hey, that box isn’t sealed or anything, so it’s not like I captured it. Look at that tail hanging out of the box, that’s proof, see.

I just wanted to try putting the cat in.

「Hmmm! 」

The other daifuku moved.

The daifuku stretched wide after raising its body. Ah, the hood came off and blackish, purple hair spilled out.

「Girl? 」

「Good morning. Are you the ones who got Whyle? 」

Goodness, I can’t remove that daifuku impression from my mind. Let’s make some later when we’re home.

「If you mean that white spirit cat, then it’s inside this box. 」

Dinosso pointed to the box by my feet with his thumb.

「Oh, what a surprise, even though he didn’t want to get away from me before… 」

「May we know who you are, and what are you doing here? 」

Shiva asked.

She might look cute, but she had been sleeping in the midst of swarming monsters suspected of overpopulation. None of us tried to approach this unidentified little girl.

「I’m Sara…. I wanted to sleep, but it’s too noisy outside. I couldn’t help it, I was way too sleepy, so Whyle took me here. Whyle put up protective barriers, so it was possible for someone like me to come here…. I was half-asleep, though. 」

「You said it was noisy outside. Isn’t it noisy here? 」

「Whyle’s barrier is almost totally soundproof. As for ‘noisy’, I’m referring to a person named Roza-sama. She wanted to borrow Whyle’s barrier. 」

So she even tried to scout around here, huh. And quite persistent at that.

「I’m perfectly happy if I have three meals a day, can sleep in until late in the morning, have naps, and sleep the whole night. Based on what she said, I won’t get that, so I turned her down. 」

「You’re just sleeping most of the time, huh? 」

Dinosso quipped.

「Indeed. I can only stay awake for about two hours a day, and even then I’m still sleepy. I only felt truly awake now, when Whyle left me. 」

How should I put this — sounds like a lifestyle that’s difficult for anyone except little princesses who don’t have to lift a finger to do anything.

「Fortunately, I’m blessed with beauty and a great figure, and I’m also confident in my skin. My goal is to work as a mistress or a lover who doesn’t have to get out of bed. 」

Hm?

「What a lass, spouting terrible things with that smile. 」

Dinosso.

Oh, so I didn’t mishear her, huh.

「How about getting a job related to that protective barrier? 」

「When Whyle sleeps, nobody else can stay inside the barrier other than me. I also told Roza-sama that we’re useless, but it seems I was too sleepy to relay it properly. 」

Sara replied to Butler’s query.

「Perhaps she wanted to use that ‘sleepiness’? 」

「No matter which one it is, I don’t have any desire to go with her. Based on that person’s proposal, she’s planning to drag me around. 」

I don’t want to get out of my bed ~ said Sara.

「Oh, by the way, I apologize for my rudeness, but do you have anything to eat, perchance? 」

Sara furrowed her pretty eyebrows while asking us, looking troubled.
