Chapter 238: New Learning

A place slightly far from the house in the garden.

I had made a bench and a table there and Dianeia and the rest sat there and drank the tea Sakura had provided.

「So going back to the defensive needs…your place hasn’t taught her that yet Dianeia?」

「Yeah, for us we focus on attack first of all. Our priority is getting practical experience with different attacks. After all our witch corps is usually behind defensive walls casting attack magic….as a result Nagini-dono’s growth became like this. I’m really sorry about that.」

Dianeia said regretfully, but Nagini raised her body from laying on the bench.

「No…it’s not your fault Dianeia-san…I’m more ashamed of myself instead….」

「So you can finally get back up?」

「Thanks to you. Sorry for causing you troubles…..」

「Don’t worry about it after all this.」

「Do you want some tea too Nagini-chan?」

「Ah, ussu…….thank you very much Sakura-san…ahh…it’s so cold and nice ssu….」

She took a sip of the tea and let out a satisfied sigh. For now it looks like she was doing alright, I turned to look at Hesty.

「So, how do we teach her defense Hesty?」

I thought the knowledgeable Hesty-sensei would have some idea of what we should do next but…

「n~, rather than, learning magic defense from the, Prussia witches and knights, it’d be faster to learn from adventurers…」

It seems my assumption was correct.

Hesty easily gave us some sound advice.

「Is there really that much difference between adventurers, knights, and witches?」

「Of course. They primarily begin by focusing on magic defense, because they need to journey into, lands with very powerful magic. Even you saw, how well they defended their bodies against magic, when you went in the dungeon with them right Dianeia?」

Hesty asked and Dianeia thought for a bit before slowly nodding.

「I suppose you’re right. For example the Shining Heads barely had any kind of stagnation from the thick magical power…they moved efficiently and quickly…thanks to that our mission could succeed.」

「That’s how it is. So, adventurers make sure they, can move at any time by, learning defensive techniques. So if we want, Nagini to learn that, then we should probably have her learn, from them.」

「As expected of Hesty-sensei. Thanks for the good suggestion.」

After hearing her explanation I felt there was plenty of merit in the suggestion.

We would just have to find the right adventurers for the task…

「Dianeia…you did say those Shining Head guys are quite excellent right?」

They came to mind because she had brought it up and I knew them personally.

「Umu, in all honesty they’re probably in the top five adventurer groups in this country.」

「I see……then talking to them and asking them to teach should be the fastest option.」

Hesty and Dianeia nodded in agreement.

「Certainly those baldies, were able to enter your garden, without too much difficulty.」

「Umu, they’re pretty trustworthy so I think it’d be alright to give them this task.」

The two of them gave their stamp of approval. I thought they were pretty rough but good guys. Talking to them they didn’t seem like bad guys…

「Okay then, we just need to find where they are. They’re probably in the bar right? We can slowly talk over the job while we eat.」

「n? Yeah they were in the bar, but not anymore. Recently they took up the job of watching over the dungeon on the plains. They should be around there or at one of those Bunny places nearby.」

「……they’re in the Bunny Shop now? Is that really okay? It’s more of a nighttime place…」

It was still bright outside.

「Umu…well during the day they pretty much operate like a regular restaurant so it’s a good place to take a break.」

「Ahh…I guess it did have something like Cafe in its name.」

Then it should be an alright place to hang out. I could imagine those muscular adventurers acting all deredere with the Combat Rabbits while they’re on duty…

「Umm Master Daichi…Dianeia-san…what is the Bunny shop? What’s the difference between a day shop and a night shop?」

Nagini interrupted and asked innocently.

I was a bit stumped on how to answer.

I could see her pure gaze as she asked…it looked like she was childish in a different way than Hesty.

「Hey Hesty…is it alright to tell Nagini about the Rabbit’s shop?」

「Eh? What do you mean?」

「Well…umm I can’t really tell you Dragon Kings’ ages based on your appearances you know? So I was wondering if I could just explain it…how old is she even?」

「Ahh……certainly it’s been a few decades since Nagini was born…but I think it’s best, if you don’t explain now. Right now, her focus is getting stronger…sexual education doesn’t really, have anything to do, with that.」

「I see. So not right now.」

After our consultation I turned around and said to Nagini,

「…okay Nagini. There’s no real difference so don’t worry about it.」

「Wh-what is it~!? It’s unfair that you get to keep the secret all to yourselves ssu~!」

「Un, I’ll tell you later. So, the Shining Heads are out by the Rabbit’s shop near the plains?」

I dodged Nagini’s curious gaze and asked Dianeia. She smiled wryly.

「That’s right. They might even be at a streetside stall near there. Recently small side street shops have opened selling tools and magical items and such…」

「Huh? So that’s how it turned out?」

「Yeah thanks to what you did out there it’s become much more lively.」

「The ones who developed the area were those rabbits though….be that as it may we can head over since we know where they are.」

We had already come to an agreement so the faster we moved the sooner it would be solved.

I thought as I finished my tea and looked at Nagini.

「You think you can move Nagini?」

「Ussu! No problem ssu. I’m feeling better and better as I drink this tea!」

She had recovered perfectly. You’d never imagined that she had been so groggy just a short while ago.

It was some amazing recovery power…but I think the tea had something to do with it.

「Hmm? Sakura isn’t this just normal tea?」

「Yes it is normal tea. However, the water I used was from our underground reservoir so it should have various effects. It’s because of that that Nagini-chan is feeling better.」

「Oh? I didn’t know that the tea I’ve been drinking had such effects.」

I’d just been swigging it down without a care. I said and Hesty suddenly shook.

「……that’s how he keeps, slowly and unknowingly getting stronger….」

「Mm, it looks like his growth, won’t stop, Daichi-dono will grow further…..」

I hadn’t thought that the tea I drank every day had such an effect. However, it wasn’t really a problem so I should just set it aside and focus on Nagini.

Just like we had said before Nagini was doing fine and looked like she’d be able to move around.

「Okay let’s go then Nagini.」

「Ussu, I’ll follow!」

「Okay Sakura, we’ll be heading out.」

「Okay, come back safe. I’ll have dinner ready by the time you come back~」

And so we headed off to the plains between the forest and the twon.

We wondered if they would teach Nagini…

And I was looking forward to finding out what they could teach.
