Kujonin Chapter 9

Kujonin

—

Up until noon, I was interrogated by Camilla about things like; I was a person from another world, that my Alchemy and Arithmetic was maxed, that currently my Magic Circle Studies had reached Level 5, that Irene wasn't my lover, and if I would refuse the special service on the date.

"Right then. It's become a problematic situation."

"Sorry. It's because we said all sorts of unnecessary things."

"Seriously. You guys are my slaves, so why would you say things that put me at a disadvantage? Listen, I only want to live unrushed, honestly, quietly, and leisurely. But. Even. Though. That's. What. I. Want!"

Sera dogeza'd; her vigor was as if she'd lick my shoes.

" " OK!" "

"Dammit-! To be frank when it comes to this point p.i.s.ses me off!"
So saying, I began my preparations.

Since Camilla had found out about it already, without the need to hide it, I raised my Magic Circle Studies to Level 10. There are 16 leftover Skill Points.

Furthermore, Magic Circles consume less magic power than magic in general; I found that, even if it's big magics, without using much magic power they can be activated.

Once Magic Circle Studies was maxed, the Magic Tool Manufacturing Skill dimly appeared.

For some reason, Craftship has already reached Level 5.

Without hesitation I raised Craftship to Level 10 and subsequently raised Magic Tool Manufacturing to Level 10 too. I have 1 Skill Point left over.
At this point it feels extremely bad to do things half way.

Using the help of the two slaves, I gathered large amounts of honey and thread.

With that thread, I embroidered my coverall with magic circles, raising its defensive powers by leaps and bounds.

Just like that, I carried the pot over to the mansion on the very edge of the western part of town and put it in front of the gate.

I drew a magic circle on every one of the 8's stomachs.

The vespahornets that woke up returned to the hive.

I confirmed that all 8 of them exploded by the Detection Skill and by sound.

However, a wind magic circle was drawn to enclose the plot so that the vespahornets that tried to fly out of the mansion's plot of land had their wings shredded, were thrown upwards, and in about a few seconds came crashing to the ground.

That day, since I had nothing else to do in particular, it's just wating for the fire to go out, I returned and went to sleep.

The next day, when I went to the burned out mansion, the brick-made outer part was still standing firmly.

Together with Sera and Balzack, we went around pulling out the rear stinger as subjugation proofs from the vespahornets' corpses.

The 3rd floor had collapsed, so the 2nd floor became open.

Within her stomach are white eggs, but there's still heat in them.

Anyway, we collected everything that could be used or turned into money and headed towards the Guild.

Reporting to the receptionist Irene, I had her take charge of the subjugation proofs and eggs.

At the mansion, since there was also the bones of the people who were the vespahornets' victims, with just what we did before we gave them a burial service, she said.
Because souls that have lost their place to be can turn into monsters, I heard.

When we were all done with counting the money and handing things over, outside the window the day had completely become dark.

When we returned to Elf's Pharmacy, when I checked my Adventurer's Card in my room, I confirmed that I had risen to Level 65.

I took off my coverall and put it on a hanger, hanging it up in the closet.

I muttered that to myself.

Sera said.

"Yes, your Level has risen to 65. Would you like me to tell you your Status?"

"OK!"

"However, frankly speaking, I don't think anyone other than Naoki-sama would think of this kind of method, and I believe that the people who would then think that they could do it would be few."

"It's true. A, should I attend to you today?"

"Understood."

Using Cleanup on Sera and myself, we slipped into our beds.

"Thank you very much."

"Good night. Naoki-sama."
Like this, the days full of labor ended.

In the morning, when I had woken up, Sera and Balzack were talking about something with the door in between them.

"Good Morning. Sorry, did I wake you?"

I asked while rubbing my eyes.

"Naoki-sama, it's like this. I and Sera were asked to help by the Guild. Regarding that mansion from before, in order to match the remains with the bereaved families, I, who has a dog's nose, and Sera, who possesses the Appraisal Skill are in demand. How does that appeal to you? It's a story where if Naoki-sama does not give his permission we cannot take it, however…"

"Is it okay?"

"Understood. Then excuse us."

"Wait a minute, take some money with you. You'll be troubled without enough for lunch, right? Here, is 5 gold coins enough"

"Naoki-sama, I can't take that much."

""Thank you very much.""
The two of them bowed their heads very deeply and left for the mansion.

After yawning largely, I went down the stairs and told Camilla that today I would watch the shop.

Her 800 year old appearance jumping made me worried, but she immediately returned to her own room and came out with a "Best regards!" in her 20 year old form.

Sorry for the delays. There was a bit of a situation… Back on track now. Vending Machine/Rotation 2 coming out next. >
