58 Chapter 3-13: The Great Catch

I'm coming to the heart of the slam right now. The time will be about to change the date. Even if it's the center, it's on the roof of the building.

I don't know why you're here, Marquis, but more than that, I couldn't stand the fact that there's a woman who just met in the same room, because... I'll tell you without misunderstanding, I'm normal. Never a homosexual. It's just that I've never stayed in a room with a woman (except my family), including in my previous life.

That's why he left the room early and was slamming his time. Oh, I'm doing my job right.

But I think you've had a valuable experience getting here.

Trying to get out of the room before I got here, I noticed a few strange men outside, besides the marquis keeper's knight, watching over me.

So I went back to my room once as if nothing had happened, and now Slalin swallowed me... weird way of expressing it, but the point is, I had it put in a dimension bag in Slalin's body, and it was lost in the dark night and I went outside, and I got out of Slalin away from my room and headed for Slalin.

Currently, Slalin is in my bag and resting, I coordinate my whole body with black, worn clothes and cover my face with something like a black turban, disguised as if at first glance I (Tenma) didn't know. Jeanne and Aura are sleeping in the room, so Siroumar and Solomon are waiting in the room in case... but this outfit is pretty hard! Occasionally, I magically cool my temperature, but still can't wipe the sweat I've been wearing, I want to finish it quickly and take a bath.

In the meantime, I decided to use my exploration to find Gary's place. Fortunately, Gary and I are familiar with each other, so he catches on to exploration if you remember.

Surprisingly, Gary was right around the corner... right around the corner, or in the building I'm in right now.

I feel a little slapped, but it's good to work faster, so I decided to do an internal reconnaissance.

This building is four stories long, and the exterior is worn out, and if even a big earthquake comes, it's gonna collapse, right? Something like that. First I looked inside, there were four people near the entrance to the ground floor section and two people on the stairs, two people on the second floor in the hallway, three people in the hallway with Gary on the third floor, two people in the hallway with Gary and three others, two people in the hallway and three people in the room directly below on the fourth floor, for a total of twenty-two + Gary.

There's gonna be me and Marquis watching this other thing, so there's gonna be about three dozen of them in all.

In the meantime, we decided to start taking action.

First, like when I leave the room, Slalin swallows me and breaks into the room directly below me.

Breaking into the room to find out what was going on, the three of them were apparently liquoring as the kidnappers' bosses.

So just get your arms out of the slurrin, tie a line in this room, make sure the sound doesn't leak, and then...

"Stan"

Reinforced the three of them with thunder magic, making them immobile. So I go out of Slalin and roll the three of them around with rope. After that, I left it in my dimension bag and went inside the slurrin again.

Next he broke into Gary's room and tied the line in the same way, then matched the first three to the same eyes.

Gary was monkey tossed over tied with rope, but when he looked at me, he said something about a moga, so I tried to shift the monkey toy.

"This is what I saw because of you! What are you gonna do!

or something, so Gary had it grown up in Stan just like the kidnapper.

Then it was easy after that. If you leave the room dignified and repeat it like powerlessness in stans before other kidnappers make a scene, tie it up and leave it, powerlessness in stans again, the kidnapping was almost solved in less than an hour of things.

Later, I put the kidnappers rolling on the floor in their bags and took all the weapons, jewelry and other golden-eyed items that were in the room and left the kidnapper's gym behind... From the side, what I'm doing looks terrible, but it's considered a legitimate act to be a criminal opponent like this one, so it's a loss if I don't take it home.

On his way home, he tied up the guys who were watching my room and the guys who were watching the marquises and knights near the guild, packed them in a bag and went into the guild.

"Marquis, it's over."

If you go inside, tell the Marquis that at the opening, and get Gary out of the bag.

Gary was still passing out, but then he gave it to me as he thought he would wake up naturally.

"Oh, oh, Lord Tenma...... thank you. Despite all the inconvenience so far, I really appreciate you rescuing Gary"

Even such an idiot son must mean an important son to the Marquis, and so on, I remembered something fuzzy.

"With that said, what's the reward for this one?

It was the first thing I had to meet, but there was a lot going on this time, so I completely forgot (mainly about Jeanne and the others). Well, if you get stuck, don't hand over the kidnapper and let him go somewhere... I even think I can help indirectly if I'm going after Gary again.

"That's what I'm talking about, including the reward and all the scratches, and I'll give you half a million G of it that I collected as ransom and a metal plate with the Seal of the Marquis of Sammons. Not as good as the Duke of Sanga's, but our family is also a senior aristocrat with a lot of power. Sometimes it helps something if you have it."

I think I was licking this marquis a little bit. Receiving a reward that includes all the grudges will allow Gary to be made in this city so far, and if you don't, you will be affixed a rettel that the little guy in the vessel who refused the Marquis' apology unimpeded. Then there may be obstacles to the adventurer family business in the future.

Probably that much thought. What's more, if you stay connected to me here, it will also be possible to side with the presence of the Dragon (Solomon) in the event of anything.

Whether you're thinking about it or not, you better take this reward. However,

"Excessive reward, thank you. Let's just water each other up until now. However, if your son is going after Solomon again or hands on my people, I will strike some kind of hand at this one."

Let me stab the nail firmly.

The Marquis seemed to understand the meaning of my words properly and smiled bitterly in its face.

"Oh, yeah, yeah. I almost forgot."

And, acting slightly exaggerated, I got all the kidnappers out of the bag. Thirty-one of them, after all, were four on the lookout for me and five for the Marquis.

To the boulder, he didn't think he'd catch this many kidnappers alive, and the Marquis and the knights, that and the remaining guild officials, were as round their eyes as they were funny.

"I'll take care of these guys' punishment. Once we caught all the kidnappers, maybe there were a few of them I didn't know about."

I pulled the Marquises up my ass, surprised to say so, and I went to my room.

When I got back to my room...... everyone was asleep...... naturally, I guess I could come and pick you up as much as Shiloumal? Is it selfish to think that...

I decided to take a bath outside first. I really want to take a bath, but I put up with it because I feel like I'm running out of time to sleep when I get in now.

The shilowmall was warming my bunk. Well, even when I tried to sleep, I didn't retreat from the top of the futon as hard as I could!

In the meantime, Shiloumal decided to fall asleep, retreating as best he could.

When I woke up in the morning, Jeanne and Aura were already awake, Aura was in the kitchen and Jeanne was sitting on her bed.

"Good morning. Dear Tenma,"

"... good morning"

Regardless of Aura, I don't know if Jeanne has fully woken up yet, or if she hasn't recognized me as Lord, but (probably both) it was a bit of a bumpy greeting.

Aura seemed to be in pretty good shape and was cooking breakfast in the kitchen.

"Please wait at the table as breakfast is almost ready"

Aura recommended me to get to the table, but I forgot the key thing.

Good morning, both of you.

The two of you returned my greeting, good morning, um, words (the former being Aura and the latter Jeanne).

"Thank you for waiting"

That being said, what Aura served was a leftover stew, a potage flavored with grated potatoes and consomme-style soup, and a salad in lightly broiled bread.

But no matter how much you put on the table, it's only for one person. Asking Aura about it,

"Slaves can't eat with their husbands."

That's what happened. I didn't like to eat alone while Aura stood behind me, so at first she asked me to eat just like me, but Aura refused so hard that in the end, on top of the waste of time, I was not a nobleman, I ordered her to eat at the same time at the same table as possible.

That was it, and Aura finally broke it for me, so I decided to wait a little while before the three of us ate.

I noticed during the meal that they only had the same dirty clothes as yesterday.

That's why I decided to go buy clothes and essentials for both of us, but unfortunately I was just wondering where in Seigen there was something for women.

So I decided to have a strong helper. That's Amy!... rather than say that the closest person I know to a woman (a girl) in this town was Amy...

When I went to ask Amy to do that,

"Okay. In my knowledge, I'll show you a cheap, quality store!

And I was strained. However, Amy had a rare guest... Leena and Menace.

When asked why she was there, the adventure was off today, so I came to love Yi Cheng-chan, Leena said, and Menace said it was that amulet.

Leena was angry at Menace's words, but Leena was trying to walk with her as much as possible because there was something natural about it... which was kind of a convincing answer.

Anyway, they're both coming with me, so I tried to go to Amy's recommended store.

"Tenma... are you going to look for these kids' underwear with you?

and Menace told me, so I only gave out the money and declined...... by the way, the money was taken 50,000 g including five meals etc...... honestly, I don't know the market for women's clothes etc, but I think it's obviously too much.

"Women cost more than men!

And Menace pushed me off, and I honestly gave it to him. But suddenly I had time, so I decided to work on creating my protective gear and take a trip to the secret base of the dungeon.

The first thing we need to do is work on the armor. Mithrill and silver ingots on the ingredients, and Anaconda leather. First, I'm going to cut Anaconda's leather off big enough to cover it from my hand to around my elbow, creating a shape.

The hand part is shaped like a half-finger glove and is temporarily stitched to determine its size. I think it's a little tight. I adjust it to the extent and stitch it together. It feels like layering the outer part of the arm and attaching the armor to it.

The metal part at the heart, with reference to Adamantin's armor, is made smaller overall so that I can easily use it, and the decorative part is shredded. I plan to make it feel like a wedge in the wrist area with misrills.

In fact the planned form has been previously made of iron prototype. I can use both, but the size is smaller than my arm, so I need to rework it.

Originally, when I finished building the Mithril stuff, I planned to cast it down, but put it on hold because it might be the right size for Jeanne and Aura.

As the shape is easy to recirculate, it is generally rounded, and the back of the hand makes it easier for the fingers to move, so as to protect it with a misthrill around the root of the finger, the arm part was made by combining several parts.

I didn't go so far as to work out the parts for one arm for today, so I decided to stop once and spend a small amount of time collecting silver.

After about half an hour of collecting, I took about 2 kg of silver, so I decided to solidify it, ingot it, store it in my bag, and think about what it would be used for.

When I went outside, noon was only a long time ago, and now it would be about three o'clock or so, when I headed to my room because it was time for Jeanne and the others to come back, Amy and Leena were waiting outside.

He seemed to be waiting for me to come home, and his face was nibbling.

"Tenma, come in ~ su!

The door of the room opened to match Leena's slightly missing voice.

Make sure Amy pushes you on the back, and when you get inside, there's...

"... which one?

A strange beautiful girl... not... but Jeanne and Aura, who became so beautiful that they could see each other differently... by the way, my remarks were devoured by Amy, who was all sanctioned, elbow-busted to my flank.

By then, the two of them had become beautiful... I had heard that the woman would turn into a woman, but I never spoke to her.

They are both lightly cut after cleansing their hair, which was rough, and Jeanne fastens it with a floral square cameo-like barretta, bundled with beautiful white hair that was all the way up to the middle of her back. The outfit was a light water coloured piece and the skirt was about the length of the front part around the knee, but there was even a calf at the back. He had a white shawl on his shoulder, stopping him with his chest.

Aura's had short hair in a hair color that felt like dark blonde hair, but the first thing I notice is:

"Maid clothes?

That outfit. That's not something I often see in cosplay (though I don't know if there's a thing in this world) either, it's a made-up outfit that feels classic... well, it has frills on aprons etc...

"Doesn't it suit you?

That's what Aura asks, but she's obviously used to wearing it.

"No, it suits you... I could have bought you regular clothes, not work clothes..."

To my whining, Aura,

"This is the everyday outfit for me!

And I strained my chest...... about D?

"Doctor?"

In Amy's words, my consciousness restarts for a moment. They all didn't seem to notice my gaze... No, Menace did. I'm going to do a gesture of stirring up liquor with my hands...... ok, let's go to the stop fee next time.

Finishing negotiations with eye contact scares Amy,

"So, it's the money I kept...... sorry! I used it all!

Put your hands together in front of your face, Amy apologizing. But I told him not to care because that was supposed to be the case.

"Mr. Menace and the others shopped too, so it was a little short"

And because of the relief caused by not being mad at me, I spilled something that I shouldn't have listened to.

"What did you just say?

The words are directed at Amy, but her body and eyes were directed at Leena and Menace.

At the end of the line of sight were two people trying to get out of the window.

"Shall we wait..."

I immediately grabbed the back collar and pulled it over. As I sat them right, Amy also spontaneously tried to sit right, so I stopped pushing them and gave them the treats they had in their bags and sent them home.

"Now, both of you... if you have any excuses, let's hear it..."

To my words, Leena raised her hand.

"Mr. Menace instigated me!

and quickly sold his buddies (Menace). Naturally Menace panicked and tried to block Leena's mouth,

"It's a waste of extra time because it's a luxury of tenma anyway, he said!

And I felt like I wasn't bad, so when I looked at Menace,

"... you see, there's a price to pay..."

It was, so I got paralyzed for a while.

As we watched how it went, Leena was subtly headed to the door, so we had it in the same eyes as Menace.

The two people who were paralyzed were in the way, so I decided to let Shiloumal hold the stuff that wrote the requirements on the note and ask them to look for Jin and the others and pick it up.

Leave those two alone, and I'll talk to Jeanne and the others about what's coming.

The point is, we dive into the dungeon, so can we fight? That is.

The two answers to that are:

"I can use light, fire, water and earth magic, and weapons can use a little if they are swords and mace"

"I am fire and water magic, swords, spears, bows and minimal martial arts"

The former is Jeanne and the latter is Aura. I know Jeanne can use magic because I saw it the first time I met her, but I was surprised she could use Aura as well. But when I heard the story, there weren't many types of magic between the two of them, and they could use simple healing magic, but the magic that restores highly effective magic and state anomalies didn't give them a chance to learn.

The talent of the two is not bad. But I can't even say it's good. Whether it's going to stretch or not, it's Jeanne's curse (Virgin) that bothers me. Wonder why she has three goddess blessings, such as a curse.

I wish the gods would advise me at times like this...

In the meantime, do you want me to start doing a lot of things tomorrow?

I need to gear up before that, but I don't think this will be a problem if I get it all bought up before I go to the dungeon tomorrow...... I'm going to gear it up for practice anyway, so let's just pick a minimum performance thing.

When I told you about it, there was a nervousness running down their faces.

"Well, you'll be fine. Tomorrow we'll just practice without demons."

In the unlikely event, when I told him to rest assured that I would protect him, the tension seemed to be largely relieved.

After that, I tried to get ready for an early dinner.

"That's the role of the maid!

and Aura took the job...... it's good because Aura's food is delicious, but until now (even when I worked with Lily and the others) I've always cooked, so it felt strange.

The food that came out was pretty good.

After dinner, I wanted to take a bath in the boulder today, so I let the carriage out of the room and put a barrel in the carriage and hot water.

Around the area where the barrel was placed, I have devised tiles over the board and made drains, so I don't think the floorboard will rot.

I ordered Jeanne and the others to go in first, taught them how to use it and gave them soap and towels...... of course, I wouldn't imitate peeking!... It was just a detour to watch a woman bathe sweetly... too long... it took me more than an hour and a half to loose until my turn came... but the bath felt good...

I plan to go to the dungeon early tomorrow, so I decided to go to bed a lot earlier than usual.

By the way, I got another bed the same size today, so I wouldn't sleep on the floor, and I made a simple compartment between the two beds (roped up on top and made the cloth look like a curtain), which would reduce the mental strain.

When I opened my eyes, the white space was wide open again.

"Again..."

I wonder who's coming this time for the third time, and when I get my hands on trying to wake up my body...

"Ahem."

A glossy voice was heard along with a fuzzy soft and elastic response.

"Whew!"

When I let go of my hand in surprise, there was a goddess of love asleep.

"Tenma... you're so bold..."

I tried to hug you with that, so I hung the head of the goddess.

"Go!

The chops were lightly drizzled.

The goddess said, "Oh, man, that doesn't look like it at all."

In the meantime, when you ask for the requirements,

"You know, Jeanne, the curse can be easily broken."

That is. Apparently Jeanne's curse in the first place had the effect of inhibiting her own growth or lowering the luck of those around her, and Jeanne seemed less damaging because she was born with a curse, but at the same time had the title of Virgin.

"What's the way to do that?

My question, while the goddess nibbles,

"That... is to make Tenma drink her body fluids!

and said it in such a way that I was expecting something,

"I mean, even blood works for you."

And so I said, what a boring looking face.

"You're right... it's boring!

and became a fluke. But when you ask me why it works like that on my body fluids,

"That's because Tenma has more than one God's protection, and Jeanne and I are close in age and of different genders."

Apparently, that's why. The point is that a curse has negative properties, and God's protection has positive properties.

For this reason, they can neutralize the negative by giving them the opposite of the curse.

However, there are a number of conditions. It is said that the cursed person and the body are of different gender, that the age is near (approximately ± 5 years is most effective), and that the body fluid-giving person has multiple divine protections.

Furthermore, the curse cannot be eliminated only once, so it is necessary to give the body fluids again and again.

In the first place, when asked what a curse is, it seems that it occurs because of the precipitation of magic in this world and so on, and not many people can survive to the age of Jeanne.

She also forcefully connected me to my dream this time, so she only has this space for a few more minutes, so I decided to ask her one last question.

"Have you been connecting this space a lot lately?

When I heard, the goddess laughed,

"You're using the Genesis God to the point of dying, and you're connecting it forcefully!

And he smiled... Poor God of Genesis... I felt sorry for him for the first time...

After that, for some reason, it was held by the goddess of love until this space disappeared.
