63 4-5 Back auction confidence

After everyone finished eating, they decided to take a break and rest in the living room.

After the meal, Oligor, the lord, left the mansion while being led away by the butler.

On the way back, he shouted, 'I don't want to work from this time onwards!' but I think it was punishment for skipping out during the day.

'Oh no, I'm surprised. Beef tongue wasn't eaten in this world and I thought it wouldn't be good, but it was excellent.

'Right!　I knew Hayato would understand.

Yes, of course. From now on, if I see one in the market, I'm going to buy it too.

Yeah, yeah. Look at the look on their faces, all that quizzical stuff. They think we're freaks, you know?

All the ladies in the front looked disgusted when they saw us talking about beef tongue.

Except for White, who is lounging on my lap and has a delicious alliance with the beef tongue.

No, you guys are unbelievable. How can you eat a cow's tongue like that?

Mee has a bit of a hard time with the cow's tongue, too.

"Wanderers don't eat well.

'No, no, no. You guys usually eat caterpillars, right?　Because to me, that's more incredible. It's a bug, bug.

Because it's delicious.

I like it too. Hey, Shiloh!

Hmmm. The beef tongue is delicious. It's even better with Negin.

White's a good guy.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Here?　You want to be here?

It's said that the cat people don't like it when you care too much about them, but White-san is okay with it, isn't he?

'I'm petting you with love!　Don't you want to pet Mee or something?

'Well...'

When Hayato and Mi met, Mi's eyes started to shine, but Hayato looked away.

Seeing this, Mi opened her mouth wide with a bang.

'Hmmm, okay Mee. It's an imitation of White. Get on Hayato's lap!

"!　I understood. Tou!

Yeah, yeah?

In two words, Mee jumped over the desk and curled up to look up at Hayato as she landed on his lap.

''Mi, Mi-san?''

Don't you like Mi, Hayato-sama?

'No, it's not!　I like Mee because, well ... I like her.

Then go ahead and stroke it. Look at this delighted look on White's face!

'Aww......... The Lord's petting is supreme......... Unshakable.

But, but.... touching a woman's body...

You see, Mee's got the look in her eyes that you've been waiting for.

Hayato-sama....

Okay. Now......

Hayato patted Mi's head with a fearful hand.

It's not a good idea to be so touchy-feely or not so touchy-feely. It's not a good idea to put any effort into it, but be careful and loving!

Yes. Okay?

Hayato's eyes became compassionate and gentle, and Mi's cat ears fell down in a swoop, making it easier to pet him.

Mi's eyes were closed and she looked happy, as if she was in paradise.

Perhaps relieved to see that face, Hayato's hands are becoming much more relaxed and able to pet her after the initial fearfulness.

'Lesson 2! The base of the tail.

Hmmm. Lord, I'm weak there.

When you stroke this spot, White's tail reacts with a pinprick and grows straighter.

Trivia, but when a cat is extending its tail, that's when it's happy.

''Well ... around here, I guess.

Hmmmm..... Hmmm, Hayato-sama........ It feels good.

'Ha, yes. Is that about as strong as you want it to be?

'Yes. More stroking, please.

Yeah, yeah. Don't ever be rough with them. Remember, it's only in the spirit of being allowed to pet them!

'Ha, yes. It feels good to be stroking them, doesn't it?

'Right?　Do you understand?　I'm happy with this....

Excuse me, master?　It's about time....

'Well, wait a minute. I'm trying to teach Hayato a lesson by petting a cat.

No, it's a bit public...

When I look around, I see that it's mainly Letty who's been disappointed.

''Ha, Hayato?''

"...Haha!　This is different!　I just stroked it as Itzuki-san suggested.

"Hayato-sama!　It felt soooo good. Can you stroke me again?

Mee!　You, dear. If you want me to pet you that much, I'll pet you and you'll have to be patient!

'No!　I want Hayato-sama!

Hmm.

"Why don't you try being petted, little girl?

Huh?

'Mr. Itsuki!　She's a human race.

So what?　White, switch to Wendy.

Hi.

I'll pet you again later.

Hmm. Promise.

"Okay, okay. Promise, promise.

I jumped down with a whimper and Wendy was next to put her head in my lap.

Unfortunately, the couch is too small for her, so half her body is now sitting on the ground.

'Alright,'

Master.......... It feels good.

'I feel good too. Mostly my legs.

Crushed to a pulp and with an overwhelming thickness!

It changes in many ways with just a little movement, and that is truly the mystery of the human body!

It's just skinny-dipping at best.

'Yes. Master loves to be skinny dipping.

'But it's embarrassing...'

Look, Hayato, I've got a lecture to give you. I need to give you a lecture.

What do you mean?

'It's a mistake not to do anything because it's important. If it's important, you have to say what you want to do while taking into account what they want, too.

It's not good for a man to be an a**h*le who doesn't do anything because he's afraid of being hated.

You can't force it, but you also need to be a little forceful.

Oh, you are....

What?

'It's nothing...'

By the looks of it, you still haven't touched it.

It's a waste.

Or perhaps you are too lazy.

If Hayato asks for it, these kids wouldn't refuse it.

Now, are you going to stay at the inn?　Do you want to stay at home if you haven't already?　I've got two rooms available.

I've just bought 4 new beds for the rooms on the first floor.

Well, we don't have a place to stay, is that all right?

"Oh, I'm sure you'll want to take a bath, won't you, Miss Letty and the rest of the girls?

You know, I think you guys got in first, don't you?

Well. Get the girls in there.

Well. So I'll take you up on your offer then.

'Well, Wendy, get the bath ready for him. I'll be in the next room when you get up there, so you can cool off there.

In the meantime, let's make money through alchemy and accessories for Hayato and the others.

''Very well. I'll get you some new soap and towels.

Oh, that's why I'm asking. Then Hayato, let's go to the alchemy room. Tell me what kind of accessories you want.

Oh, um. Yes. It's nice to meet you.

When I arrived in the alchemy room, Hayato spread out a variety of materials from his magic bag on the table.

Among them were ores that I had never seen before, so I reassured myself that I would be able to make something good.

In the end, I didn't have any special orders, and since Hayato said he would leave it to me, I would take him up on his offer and do whatever I wanted with it.

But are you sure you want to do this?　You can have the rest of it.

''Yes. I can't use it even if I had it, and I hope Itsuki-san will find it useful anyway.

I have no choice but to motivate myself.

Let's make the best product with the best materials, shall we?

We have plenty of high-grade ore.

"Well, for now, let's just change all these things to ingots.

I took out orichalcone ore.

It's an ore that you often hear about in games and so on.

Basically, they are expensive or materials for the most powerful weapons, but Hayato brought a lot of them.

By the way, how much is this one?

Let's see ... 300,000 to 500,000 Nol?

"....you do that much before refining....

It was more high-grade than I expected.

It would be better to make armor and weapons than to make accessories with these........

''If you're a blacksmith, it'll be the state blacksmith who can handle this level. We can't just ask them to do it because the country is holding them...''

Oh, come on. You're a hero. Can't you do a little bit of that?

''As I said before, there are many weirdos......... The more skilled a person is, the weirder they are....

It's difficult........

Well, from now on, I'll do the smelting myself........

I'm not a weirdo, you know.

It's a good idea. It's just the two of us, so I'm going to ask them.

Yes. What is it?

Are you a virgin?

'Boo hoo!　Nah, nah.....

'No, it's not like I'm new to women, or that I'm holding back from touching them.

'Well...'

I was wondering if maybe you haven't messed with those kids.

I'm used to being able to start a conversation with Hayato while working.

But even so, when doing precision work, I concentrate so much that my word count decreases and I can't understand what is being said.

''Well, you see...yes.

'I see. I thought that was unnecessary. You don't like them, do you?

'No, no, no, no!　We all love it!

Can't you pick just one?

'I mean, well.... If we get into a relationship like that among our friends, it could get strained...

Oh. I get it. Why don't you make a harem out of it?

What?　Isn't that a bad idea?　That's the way it's going at Itzuki-san's place, but.......

Really?　Ah, but we're slaves........ Would it change again if we were friends?

Well, I guess...

But you do have a s*x drive, don't you?

'That's of course...'

Isn't it getting harder every day?

....

Why don't you just tell me?　I like everybody!　So I want to do it with everyone! And...

Doesn't that sound kinky...?

Hmmm ... well, yeah. Imagine that guy in the arms of another man, whoever that is.

Eh....

I think this works best.

There is not enough of a sense of urgency for the type of men who don't have the courage to do this.

If a woman is attractive enough to make Hayato fall in love with her, it doesn't mean that someone else won't like her.

You don't like it?

'Yes I hated it very much...'

So you can have them all for yourself. You won't regret it.

Aren't you going to be attracted to it?

I don't think they're the kind of girls who would pull that kind of trigger.

The Ring of the Guardians' Oath: Great defensive power, great offensive power, great psychic pollution resistance, resistance to mental pollution, state-related anomalies, magic power increases based on the degree of intimacy between them.

Nice work.

I tried to make it like two halves of one, with the wedding ring in mind, but again, it seems that your abilities increase with intimacy.

You see, one is Hayato's, and the other is for someone else. You can give the other one to someone else.

'Oh, yes. Thank you.......... Four abilities and an additional ability, you've made another great one........

I've got the right stuff. Now, I'll make you three more.

It's not three, or rather, it's six because I'm going to make them all two pairs.

Anyway, I'd like it to be in the form of a gift from Hayato to everyone.

But if we make them all the same and Hayato equips 4 of them, will they be duplicated?

And then both the defense and attack power are increased by 4 times?

I don't think the big one is quadruple....

Well, there's still a lot of material to work with, so let's try some things out while making it a pair!
