51 Episode 51 "Extra Part 3" Rita's Wishes and "Summoning Slave" (Part 1) ".txt

I'm off, master.

Yeah. So take care of Aine's protection, Rita.

Master (Nagi) held out his hand, so Rita bowed her head lightly, as usual.

A rustle, a tickle.

Gentle fingers touch Rita's golden beast ears.

As Nagi stroked her ears, Rita felt lucky to be born a beastman.

She naturally wags her tail, which is embarrassing, but she can't stop herself. It's just an instinct.

The collar Nagi gave me became a part of me before I knew it, and I can't remember a time when I didn't have it.

I can feel Nagi's face near me. I can feel his breath.

I want to smooch, I want to rub, I want you to stroke me.

I want you to come to my side more ...... more.

'I don't think the Order of Divine Life knows who we are, but be careful. Rita, Aine.

Hmm. What are you talking about, Nagi?

But Rita is a shy tease.

That's why I put aside the feelings that are about to overflow and stretch my chest as much as I can.

I'm the strongest in the party when it comes to close combat. I don't want you to underestimate me. It's not a match for the Knights of Divine Life, you know.

I told you to stay out of trouble.

He jumped at Nagi, who laughed bitterly, and suppressed the desire to smooch him, and instead, his world's ritual of 'yes tach' - sputter!

Rita and her fellow slave, Aine, went out to gather information (plus shopping).

Aine eeeeeeeeeee. What should I do?

Mm-hm. Yes, yes.

As soon as the house is out of sight, Rita cries to Aine as she walks next to her.

Aine, the 'big sister' of the party, squinted her sleepy eyes and gently stroked Rita's hair.

'Oh, you know what, Aine. Didn't Nagi get another slave (Dorui), right?

Is this about Mr. Rafilia?

Yeah. A very pretty girl.

Aine talked to me for a bit, and I think she's a good kid, right?

Yeah, yeah. But you know what?

You don't have to worry about it! The more slaves you have, the more you'll be able to take care of Rita-san.

I know that. ......

I know. It's Nagi.

I heard that Raphilia was suffering from a mysterious lock skill. I know because Rita had something similar installed on her once. The pain caused by the cursed-like skill, and the happiness when Nagi saved her from it.

I feel for Raphilia, and I know that only Nagi could have saved her.

Besides, Rafilia has a lot of respect for Rita. 'So the dark hero was the master and the golden beast was Rita-sama! I have to admit, I didn't understand what you meant by that.

I mean, I know what it means. But... but... but...

Listen, Aine. I failed to engage my soul with Nagi. ......

Really?

"After I had Nagi do some things for me with the Fast Rebuild [Quick Structure], I almost got my 'soul promise' by accident, but the ritual was incomplete and didn't work out. But the ritual was incomplete and it didn't ...... work. I was so close.

I see. Rita, you've been working hard.

Aine smiled at that.

Her eyes are always calm and unfazed by most things. That's why I accidentally ask her for advice on many things. Aine seems to be happy about it. She says she's everyone's big sister.

Rita is sometimes amazed at the sheer inclusiveness of the difference.

Aine would not be fazed by the fact that she has a child, let alone a party member.

It's a good thing that you're not a member of this group.

Aine asked me this question as if it was a matter of course... so Rita couldn't help but feel

I'd love to go to ...................

I said it.

...... I said it.

I said ............ ahhhhhhh.

Ohhhhhhhh!

It's all right. It's just a very natural feeling.

It's a very good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

The best way to do that is to have Rita-san and Cecil-san become friends with Nah-kun, who is a breakthrough.

Aine?

It's a good idea. It's a good idea to ask Natsuko at the right time, and then you can ask Natsuko to help you.

Huh?

Rita tilted her head.

'I don't think I've seen Aine turn red in a long time.

'I'm sorry. Aine wants to make a 'soul pact' with Nagi too, right?

So that's in order, so it can wait. Right now, it's about Rita and Nei-kun's 'soul agreement'.

Yeah, ...... right.

Aine has a great idea.

Really?

You should practice a lot so that you can say to Nay-kun, "I want to make a promise to you.

Practice: ............

Yeah, I think you might be right.

Rita is a shy tinkerer.

Except when she's rebuilding and her body and mind are all fluffy, she doesn't usually communicate her feelings honestly.

It's very important to have a "soul engagement". I don't want to make a mistake this time.

That's why I need to make sure that I can ask Nagi to do it right.

Okay, Aine. I'll keep practicing!

'Then do as Aine says?　"Nagi-sama, I love you.

"'Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.

'Let me be something that will always be close to your soul.'

"'Let me stay with your balls and your ...... stuff all the time.

"When you are reborn, please let me be your big sister, Nei-kun.

"'Reincarnated, but Naykun's' ...... is that, Aine?

Yeah. We'll be together forever. Everything about you, Aine, is for your benefit. That's why it's okay. Please take Aine for Cecil and Rita's baby, please go to .......

'Aine, Aine!　I am not Nagi!　Close your eyes and stop coming at me!

Huh?

Aine finally opened her eyes when they were close enough to catch each other's breath.

'I'm sorry ............. I've been practicing too much.

What kind of training do you usually do, Aine?

It's a good idea to have a good time with them.

I mean, it's important to practice so that it comes out naturally.

...... I see.

Rita sighed involuntarily.

As expected of Aine, amazing persuasive power. She is the former guild master apprentice of the "Common People's Guild" and is everyone's "big sister". I can't believe you're thinking about Rita so seriously.

Rita clenched her fists.

Yeah ...... good luck with that. This time, it's a natural progression to make a 'soul promise' with Nagi.

I'm sure you'll find that even Aine has been so supportive.

You're going to be able to find out what's going to be the best way for you to get the most out of your time with the company, and you're going to be able to find out what's going to be the best way for you to get the most out of your time with the company, and you're going to be able to find out what's going to be the best out of your time with the company.

While we are talking about such things, Rita and Aine are approaching the main street of the town.

The purpose of today is to gather information while looking around the morning market.

The analysis and judgment of the information is left to Rita and Aine.

Nagi said that he wanted us to listen to the rumors about the town and discuss them together to determine if the information was necessary or not. That's your master. He trusts us. I love you.

So Rita starts to walk with her beast ears flapping, following behind Aine diagonally.

The streets are filled with people. But I can't see the "Knights of Divine Life".

It's a morning market full of shoppers. If you wear a mask, you will stand out.

But that also means that if you don't wear a mask, you don't know who the members are. If you're wandering around with a bare face, you won't know that the person is the 'Order of Divine Life'.

The clue is Rita's sense of smell. Sliding into them, Rita remembers the scent she felt when she charged at them. One more contact and she would know.

'...... It's too big of a crowd for that. I feel dizzy ......

Don't get separated from me, Miss Rita.

Maybe it's because the festival is near. It's early in the morning, but there are many stalls lining the main street.

Seafood, fruit, handicrafts, clothes, and more.

Ilgafa is a trading post where the roads of the land and the sea meet. Goods would come in from the sea, and one by one, carriages would leave for the interior.

Even now, at the outskirts of the main street, caravans of merchants are preparing their carriages. They'll be transporting their goods to the royal capital and Metekal now.

'Oh, by the way, Leticia-sama, you're going back to Metekal soon: ......

Rita suddenly remembered.

While they were mulling over the Elder Slime themselves, Leticia had asked a merchant with ties to the Viscount family to make arrangements to accompany the caravan. She should have woken up early this morning and had a meeting at the merchant's place.

When I spoke to him this morning, he said, "There are more slaves now, too. I don't like to be left out, so if this is not the case, I'll just go with the flow - no, no, it's nothing.

"I have to repay you, Letitia, some day.

Don't worry. We'll see each other again soon.

Aine nodded vigorously as we walked down the main street.

Then, as if she was used to it, she spoke to the stall holders. While bargaining for fruit, the conversation turned into a story about the "Divine Order of Life" tactfully. This area of the conversation was excellent.

''- Is that so?　Did the Order of the Masked Order only come out recently?

I'm not sure. It's a very good idea to be able to have a look at a few of the things you've been looking for. It's not the kind of person that ordinary people like us can ask for a job, though.

The shop lady said as she held out the red fruit.

Aine casually held up two fingers and insisted on discounting it a bit more. While accepting the additional fruit from the bitterly smiling auntie, she asks more questions

'If you joined the guild on unbeatable terms, are you good at it?　Then I can see why they pay so well.

Yeah. I hear it's pretty quick anyway. But I hear it's a bit rough.

Rough stuff is bad. That kind of thing gets people to complain.

It's what the gentry want. I can't complain about that. I'm sure he does his job well. But rumor has it he's too powerful to cause any unnecessary damage. He's wearing a mask that conceals his face, so we don't know who he is or where he is. The girls had better not say anything careless, either.

Thank you, Auntie. Auntie.

After listening to the story, and by the way, discounting the price of the fruit full of juice by 30%, Aine left the stall.

As expected of Aine ......, Rita sighed involuntarily.

This kind of bargaining power is just like a party sister. I honestly respect them.

But Aine made a face as if it was nothing, and said to Rita, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make your life easier.

...... The Knights of Divine Life is like a party of awesome adventurers.

Aine whispered in a whisper so that no one else could hear.

'They're wearing masks, so no one knows who they are. We don't even seem to know how many of them there are.

Maybe we can identify him by his voice.

Rita nodded back to Aine.

'I heard you shouting at him a lot. I'll never forget that voice.''

'You met them, Rita. Were they nasty people?

It was really weird. He was picking on Rafilia a lot.

That's not a good idea.

Nagi said, 'Ahpakmenjen', but just remembering ...... makes me sick.

But Nai-kun just blew it out of the water.

Of course it is. There's no way I'm a match for the Nagi.

Nai-kun is strong and cool.

Even when I was being attacked by the Leviathan, you came running to me.

It's nice. Ine doesn't see you fighting.

Oh, ...... sorry.

No, it's okay. It's okay. We're going to be together for a long time now, so you'll have your chance.

Right. Also, Aine is in charge of waking Nagi up tomorrow!

Are you sure?　Aine's a big sister.

Don't be so modest. It's an important role. Oh, by the way, Nagi was yesterday. ......

You?　Ditto's Ditto's ......

............

............

............

............

Before I knew it, we were talking about Nagi.

Huh?　Huh?

Rita held her forehead.

Rita and Aine's job was to shop and gather information. And analyzing that information.

And yet the topic of conversation has changed to your master. Strangely smooth, the flow of Rita and Aine's work. Or a brilliant coordination technique.

Rita and Aine can't help but look at each other and nod to each other.

I shouldn't. I can't fulfill my role like this. You have to get a grip.

Rita and Aine start to walk again.

The street is filled with the voices of vendors and customers haggling over their wares.

There are various stalls, but every shop is always decorated with a picture figure or doll of the "Sea Dragon Kerkator". The prosperity of this Irgapha is due to the blessing of the sea dragon. You can hear stories like that, and there is a lot of talk about the festival.

No one would think that the priestess of the festival and Nagi have an appointment to meet in the afternoon. My master is amazing, ehem - Rita can't help but puff out her chest.

After walking around the morning market for a while, the shopping is over and Rita and Aine start asking questions for the second time.

The place is a fish shop. One of the information they got while walking was that the fishermen are well versed in gossip.

Rita uses her sense of smell to determine if the fish is fresh or not, and Aine starts shopping at a stall that looks good.

When she has bargained down the price moderately, she casually moved on to gathering information.

''──Heh, is the ritual of the Sea Dragon festival held at the end of the peninsula?''

It's a good thing that there's a dungeon there. It was created when a sea dragon priestess and a brave man made a "spirit link" and only the chosen ones can enter it. ......

The locals have a lot on their minds, don't they?

Yeah, that's right. My fishermen have seen an evil creature around the peninsula. I've heard that the lord's regulars have gathered nearby, so that's probably true. But that area is not easy to move around with a lot of people. ......

Don't worry. I'm sure the maiden will take care of it.

Well, yeah. Come on, girls, let's have some fun on the festival day. I hear even slaves get a day off for the festival.

'Yes. But I'm happier with my master.

After a quick stain on her cheeks, Aine put the fish she'd bought in her basket and moved away from the stall.

Rita put her face close to the basket and used her beastly sense of smell to check the freshness of the fish.

Yup. It's okay. Probably just landed. Nagi should be able to enjoy it from now on.

...... So, Aine, what did you think of what you just said?

...... The appearance of a demon at the location of the festive rituals might have something to do with Mr. Iris.

'...... It's not easy for little Iris, either. You're still so tiny.

...... I don't think there's a shortage of troops with the financial resources of the Ilgafa Lords family: ......

Even ...... said it was a hard place for regular soldiers to deploy.

I think I've got a request for the Adventurers' Guild.

'But Nagi hasn't signed up for the guild over here yet, has she?

'It's hard to do when I have to deal with the Order of Divine Life.

I'm glad you gave me the information on the fisherman.

I'm putting these fish to good use.

'I think Nagi likes to eat fish. I remember meeting her in a village that was famous for its fish.

He said he lived in an island country with lots of fish.

'Nagi's hometown, huh? I'd like to see it, even just once. I'd like to breathe the same air as Nagi.

Aine feels the same way. Nah-kun doesn't seem to like his hometown, but I want to thank you for bringing Nah-kun into the world.

'Yeah. It's the place that raised the nagi.

And the new home will be made by Aine and her friends, right?

"Good point, Aine. Yeah, I know. You're right. We have to make Nagi happy.

Rita: "Rita: ......

Aine: ......

Facing each other, gingerly, they held each other's hands.

'Let's do our best.' 'I'll do my best,'

"For me... (Aine) For our master!

............

............

............

............

How come we're talking about Nagi (Nah-kun) again?

Rita held her head in her hands.

Something's wrong. Something is wrong.

We're just talking normally, but before I knew it, she started talking about Nagi.

I wasn't consciously aware of it. It was unconsciousness.

I couldn't help but blush. Why?

...... Why do I always think about Nagi all the time? ......

If you look at the clothing stalls, you can say, "What kind of clothes would you wear to tell me I look good? If you look at the ornaments shop, you'll see what it feels like to wear a matching ring, if you look at the meat stall, you'll see that Nagi likes wild boar meat. What are you thinking in the morning?

My master is too amazing. He doesn't even use the coercive power of the ring, and yet he's completely tied up his slave. This isn't fair. But Rita doesn't like it. She doesn't hate it, which makes it even more unfair.

'Could it be that Nagi has a hidden skill ......?

It's the one!

I'm not sure I'll be able to find the right one.

I'm not going to be able to get it right. I've got a new skill, 'Slave Summoning (Samoning Slave) Lv 1'.

...... That's it!

During breakfast, Nagi told us all about it.

When she and her new companion, Rafilia, rebuilt the "Skill Structure", the skill that was created was "Slave Summoning Level 1". Apparently, it's something that summons a slave under a master-slave contract, no questions asked.

When Nagi uses this skill, the slaves will know where he is. Then the slave has to rush to Nagi's place by Ichimoku.

But don't worry, I won't use it except in an emergency. 'I promise,' he said.

'We think about Nagi so much because of ......

It must be because Nay-kun is using 'Slave Summoning Lv 1' to call Aine and the others.

Aine!

Mr. Rita!

I can't stay this way.

Rita took the shopping cart from Aine and put it in her mouth. Then she carried Aine's body on her back. It's heavier than Cecil's, but not enough to interfere with Rita's movements. Nagi is calling me. It must be. Because both Rita and Aine can't help but be curious about Nagi.

What they are doing now, what kind of food they want to have today, how they feel about the two of them.

In other words, this must be Nagi using 'Slave Summoning Lv 1'.

''Let's go, Aine. Hold on tight!

You can go ahead. Go on, Miss Rita!

With Aine on her back, Rita starts running at full speed.

Weaving through the crowds, through the main street--

Nagi...

Pushing open the door of the house, Rita braked on the front porch. She spun around three times in a momentum-shortened spin.

Holding Aine back as she nearly blew up, Rita looked around.

She entered through the front door, at the bottom of the stairs.

Cecil and Rafilia were sitting there.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this. I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.

They were looking up at the second floor and turned at the same time.

Cecil is clinging to the stair railing and Raphilia has her cheekbones on the steps.

'...... What are you doing, both of you?'

Rita couldn't help but ask as she handed Aine the shopping cart.

They're both staring upstairs where Nagi is, like puppies waiting for their master to return.

'Listen, Rita-san,'

Cecil looked curiously serious.

I was just cleaning up with Rafilia-san.

But it's hard to concentrate.

Cecil and Raphilia looked at each other, and then, as if they were breathing together

I can't help but wonder about Nagi-sama (Master) upstairs!

I declared such a thing to Rita.

'Go to ...................'

A cold sweat ran down Rita's forehead.

I wonder. It was like the same thing had happened somewhere else.

'Heh, not, Rita!　We're serious!

Cecil puffs out his cheeks and comes over to Rita.

'You worked late last night as well, so I was wondering if you were tired. I would like to make you a cup of tea, but I don't want to bother you. Is there anything I can do to help you?

...... Cecil,

I'm always looking for something to do, but I don't know what I can do. I'm always looking for what I can do, but I don't know what I can do and I'm ...... hazy. It's a mystery. I don't know how I can care so much about Nagi-sama just by living in the house with her. ......

Cecil held his chest sadly.

Rita couldn't help but choke on her words.

I understand that feeling. I understand it very well. I know, but wait a minute, Cecil-chan!

But Cecil decided to hold Rafilia's hand next to her and...

'So, after discussing it with Mr. Rafilia: ......

I've come to the conclusion that it's because of your master's skills, sir.

Mmm, Cecil and Rafilia raise their linked hands.

''That's right!　I think the reason we think so much about Nagi-sama is because she calls us by 'slave summoning LV1': ...... What do you think, Rita-san?

I'd like to hear from you, too, Rita, if you have any suggestions.

Cecil and Rafilia, two fellow slaves, reacted too earnestly to Rita's reaction.

........................... .............................. .............................. ............... eh.

He wiped the sweat off his forehead and took a deep breath.

'Um. Um, you know.

Calm your mind. You're going to look at yourself from before, and you're going to turn bright red.

.................. I think you both need to chill out...

Turn to the side and put yourself on the shelf for now.

Rita replied, holding her wagging tail behind her back with her hand.
