Chapter 212: High Item Pouch

TDADP chapter 212: High Item Pouch

As usual, Joseph was lying on the sofa in the living room of Yuu's mansion. In front of him, Yuu and Agafon´s group talked about their impressions of exploring the labyrinth.

「How was your exploration of 『Golgo Labyrinth』?」

Despite not being told by Yuu, Agafon´s group lined up side by side. Joseph is looking at their figures which reminds him of the time when he belonged to the army of the Derim Empire somewhere while picking in his nose.

「Unfortunately, the tenth, twenty-third, and thirtieth-floor bosses weren't there, and there weren't any monsters we had any trouble with」

Agafon reports on behalf of everyone. Although Agafon said that they didn't have much trouble, in fact, they carefully searched the labyrinth and Flavia was in charge of detecting the approach of monsters and unlocking treasure chests and when there were many monsters, they invited them to a narrow passage etc. The search was so stable that no one could imagine that they are new rookie adventurers.

「Don't be elated with that. You may have been able to explore without any particular danger because you had previously obtained information about the labyrinth and the inhabiting monsters from the adventurer's guild. And the balance of the party was good. The vanguards are Agafon, Otope, Yam, scout is Flavia, shield is Monique and the guard is Akane, especially Otope was already dealing with monsters of the B ranked labyrinth 『Decayed Kingdom Enrio』and Akane is already a third rank magic user, because her attack magic above the rank of Beibu, who can use white magic and grant magic, so it would be strange to mess up with this'」

「Wait! I can use black magic up to the 3rd rank, but I can use spirit magic up to the 4th rank and fairy magic up to the 5th rank!」

「Ah, that's amazing」

Yuu throws in appropriate words to the conversation accurately, but Akane dyed her cheeks red and was shy as she says 「We, Well」. Agafon is struck by Flavia´s and Monique´s elbows who lined up on the left and right of him and Akane poking on Agafon´s head. Agafon takes a few deep breaths, saying, 「I, I understand, don't poke」.

「A, Emm, Leader. After we explored through 『Golgo Labyrinth』, we would like to go to C-rank 『Bewitching Tree Garden Labyrinth』」

「Did you forget what Master told you earlier?」

Marifa stares at Agafon. Agafon felt his whole body getting goosebumps, but Flavia and the others press the elbow against the grim as they say they won't lose. It was Agafon who was frightened by those selfish friends without knowing his feelings and the real-intentioned Marifa.

「Well, I know you think 『Golgo Labyrinth』 wasn't as difficult as you thought. But you’ve only explored it a few times and haven’t defeated the Labyrinth boss. After exploring a little more, we can talk again about above labyrinths」

When Yuu said so, Agafon was depressed enough to notice it by his appearance.

「Don't be so depressed. It’s not a substitute, but I’ll give you something as celebration」

Agafon´s group smile when they find out that they can get something from Yuu.

「Master, I'm against it. With these biting louses, there is no qualification to have Master's item pouch」

The smiles on Agafon´s party's faces are getting wider.

「I would have made an item pouch if you said you want it. I think you already know it because Russ spoiled it, but I will give you an item pouch as a celebration for becoming an adventurer」

「I, I'm proud to get an item pouch from Master! And this――Namari, what are you laughing at!」

「Russ is jealous of Agafon and the others! Yay! Jealous person～!」

「What!? Namari, wait!」

「Nooo」

Russ chases after Namari with an emotional exposure, and likely Namari had hit the mark. Yuu throws out the noisy people and gives handmade item pouches to Agafon´s party.

「Th, Thank you very much! Ah, I have a bear embroidery」

「Mine is a fish!」

「I, I have a pig!」

「Hu, Huuh. Mine is embroidered with a floral pattern. It's good, isn't it? I'll give you a compliment」

Yuu had made cute embroidery on the item pouches of the youngsters Agafon, Flavia, Beibu and Akane but not for the remaining Monique, Yam and Otope.

「It's perfect for children like you guys, isn't it?」

「What is it, Monique, you said something?」

「Leader, I would also be happy with a cute embroidery」

(I would be happy with a rabbit)

(I want a cool wolf embroidery)

Otope and Yam envy Agafon and the others in their minds. Moreover――

「Master, then I wanted you to add a bird embroidery. Please」

「What the hell, Tin. The pockets sewn on your maid outfit, are the item pouches I made. Don’t complain because the performance doesn’t change」

「Tin, how do you speak to Master」

「Even older sister said that the item pouch from Lena's shoulder was cute because it had a flower embroidery on it」

「Ti, Tin, what are you saying! Master, it’s different!」

Lena, who was sitting on the sofa opposite to Joseph and reading a book, stood up and walked to Marifa.

「......Do you want this?」

Lena takes an item pouch out of her robe and raises it to show off to Marifa.

「I didn't say that」

「......Isn't it cute?」

「Le, Lena! What are you...?!」

「I want it. Lena-chan, please give it to me!」

「......No, this is what I got from Yuu」

「Let me have it a little」

「......Not good」

「Lena-chan's stingy. Please」

「Lena, Tin, the story is not over yet」

Marifa chases the two as Tin chases after Lena. It becomes noisy at a dash though it was a living room which is not narrow at all.

「Good grief. Why are you rampaging in the Master's residence?」

If no one says something, Agafon´s party will continue to look at the item pouches they got from Yuu.

「You won't know how much Master's self-made item pouches are worth, you biting louses」

「Why are saying biting louses this, biting louses that all the time, I'm a brown bear. Flavia, how much is a regular item pouch?」

「Well, I think Monique knows it because I haven't been to a magic tool store yet」

「Well, the cheapest 6th grade item pouch will be between 120-140,000 Madoka」

「1, 120!? Tsk! Are item porches so much worth?」

[EN: I believe the 120 here is an abbreviation of 120,000 Madoka not just 120 Madoka]

「Then, how much will the item pouch made by Odono-sama be?」

「That’s about twice or three times higher?」

「I don't think so. It'll be ten times the amount」

Agafon, who is surprised at the price of the item pouch, is about to drop the item pouch that he just got. Beside him, Otope, Yam, and Beibu were predicting prices.

「Million Madoka」

Agafon really drops the item pouch by Russ´s words. He hurries up and picks it up, but when he saw Russ's face, he asked him unintentionally.

「This item pouch costs a million Madoka!?」

「If you go to the auction in the right place, you'll start with a minimum of one million Madoka. I don't even know what the winning bid would be. Do you understand? It is too much for biting louses like you to have. At any rate, Master gave it to you. I won't say anything more than that, but don't let Master be disappointed by doing anything that you lose」

Agafon felt that the item pouch that he had been touching timidly was suddenly heavier.

「Russ, don't scare them that much. Don't worry too much, because I don't really care. The material and the processing are what I did, and it doesn't cost any money. Look, how long have you been stuck? Hurry up and go to the labyrinth! Don't come back until the item pouch is full of ingredients and treasure」

「Ye, Yes! Hey, let's go!」

When Agafon called out, he and the others rushed to the labyrinth.

「Joseph, I'm going out, so if you stay at home, you can drink alcohol in the basement and snacks were prepared in advance and put on the shelf」

「Oh, I understand」

After Joseph responds properly, he falls asleep on the sofa.

「Odono-sama, where are you going?」

「Today I ’m going to see the orphanage」

「Th, Then today」

「Study is off」

「「Hooray!」」

For some reason, Nina was pleased with Namari. Joseph jumps off the couch after and sees off Yuu and the others going to the orphanage.

「Huh. Will, you train where Master is not watching?」

「Don't mess with Yuu」

This Kori――man. It is not sloppy in front of Yuu's watching, but in his absence, Joseph keeps secretly training. When Russ asked why he was doing such a thing, the gorilla said, 「It's not cool」.
