TLN Note: Iâm starting to enjoy translating level 1 guy more and more, please give me more of these slice of life/comedy chapters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Are? Isnât that you, Margaret?]Â (Ryouta)
After heading out of Plumbumâs room for the day, I encountered a familiar face.
Gold and fluffy hair tied together neatly with a red ribbon, and wearing a pure white dress which suits her figure.
And a huge white ribbon was around her waist, holding onto the sheath of the sword, while the sword that she was holding dealt the final blow of the monster.
The leader of the Margaret family, and also a sub branch to our Ryouta Family.
[Ryouta-sama!]Â (Margaret)
Finally noticing me, she instantly faced my direction, and showed me a gorgeous expression.
And as usual, the four knights were there protecting their Princess.
If Iâm not mistaken, their names wereââ Rat, Social, Pray, and Builder.
âŠâŠ. But as to who they actually are, I have only passed the stage of knowing their names only.
The only thing they ever mentioned were, [Iâll always be by the Princessâs shadow and protect her].
[Itâs been awhile!]Â (Margaret)
[It has. So youâve came to Plumbum as well huh.]Â (Ryouta)
[Yeah, Iâve heard about the rumours. Thus, Iâd always wanted to come here at least once.]Â (Margaret)
[Rumours? What kind of rumour would interest Margaret to come all the way here?]Â (Ryouta)
Since this dungeon has recently been reformed and reincarnated to say the least, so not many people would have any knowledge about this place.
So I wondered why Princess Margaret, the idol of all adventurers would come to a place like this instead of just selling her air box.
The only thing that Plumbum has areââ Milk.
[Thatâs becauseââ]Â (Margaret)
[Princess, the next monster has appeared.]
[I apologize, itâs almost time.]Â (Margaret)
[Please deal the final blow Princess.]
One of the knightsââ Which of the four names I do not know, and acts as the leader of the knights bowed his head down.
[Please wait a moment Ryouta-sama.]Â (Margaret)
[Do what you have to do.]Â (Ryouta)
I wondered what it was, as Margaret headed to the next monster.
The strategy for fighting is as systematic as always.
The first four knights would attack and weaken the monster first.
And they have managed to do that perfectly every time.
Even though they were attacking at a fierce manner, but the moment it felt like the monster was about to be defeated, they would instantly stop their attack.
Then, Margaret would step in and swing the sword.
Although her abilities are All F, but to make up for that, she has her Drop at All A, which is where this method/strategy was born.
After defeating the monster, the item dropped.
It wasnât milk, but Bromide, Ryo-sama.
[Yay! I finally got it!]Â (Margaret)
[ [ [ [ Congratulations, Princess.] ] ] ]
Margaret was extremely happy as she picked up the Bromide.
Whereas the four knights were stationed equally, while bowing their heads.
[Ah, so that was your motive.]Â (Ryouta)
[Yes, thatâs right.]Â (Margaret)
No wonder she came all the way here.
[Youâre not going to use it?]Â (Ryouta)
[How could I ! Itâs absurd to be using it right now !]Â (Margaret)
Itâs kinda weird that she isnât using it now.
[Yes! Letâs continue then. Rat, Social, Play, and Builder.]Â (Margaret)
[If you would excuse us, Ryouta-samaâŠ..] (Margaret)
[Aah donât mind, it was my fault for disturbing you. Letâs meet up again next time.]Â (Ryouta)
I then bid Margaret farewell.
[Seriously, why wouldnât she use it?]Â (Ryouta)
[There seems to be a trend of not using it.]
Suddenly, someone spoke to me from beside, which shocked me.
Wondering who it was, I turned and looked, and it was Dale.
[Why would they not use it?]Â (Ryouta)
[Recently, someone discovered that there was something special when various adventurers usedâ- Summoned Ryouta-sama.] (Dale)
Itâs Ryo-sama though. Was what I wanted to retort, but I decided to keep it in heart.
Itâs seriously embarrassing to have that shoujo manga-esque ikemen related to me.
Thatâs why the girls gave him another name, Ryo-sama.
[ââ-So when they used it, it would aim at the closest monster and defeat them, then it would disappear, am I right? But if thereâs no monster, and it doesnât attack, then it would just stand there motionless.] (Dale)
[Heh, so thatâs how it is.]Â (Ryouta)
[And making use of that, various adventurers have made it for security purposes.] (Dale)
Since Ryo-sama isnât an item, but the Bromide itself is the item.
Other monsters are hatched from items, but Ryo-sama doesnât.
And if you can use it as a bodyguard, if there are any sneak attacks from monsters, it can come in handy to protect said adventurers.
[Hence why Bromide has been selling quite well recently.] (Dale)
[I see, so Margaret is using it like that as well.]Â (Ryouta)
Using the gate, I went back to my mansion.
This time my destination is to Ryouta Village to collect the Speed Up Bullet.
Was what I thought when I heard conversations.
[You do not have to thank me. I even got my reward as well.]Â (Celeste)
[Yes, thank you very much.]
I heard my friends chatting about slightly away from here.
Since it was very familiar, I could immediately identify who it was.
Being interested in what they were talking about, I went out of the Transportation Room, and went to where they were.
Heading behind the mansion, I could see Elza at the <Swallowâs Repayment> room.
I somehow missed Celeste as she left just a few minutes ago, so only Elza was left there.
Then suddenly, a huge abundance of drops were transferred.
They were mountains of flowers.
Itâs probably from Emily.
Elza, without any delay, started counting the amount with her calculator, and jotting down the amount.
Itâs rare to see Elza working, since Iâm always out and all.
I wonder what she does at a regular basis?
Starting to become more and more curious, I waited for abit and started observing her.
[Uwa! Wait Celeste. Youâre still here?]Â (Ryouta)
Celeste suddenly popped up from behind me.
[Yeah, but anyways Ryouta-san, I want you to help me with something.]Â (Celeste)
[Sure, what is it?]Â (Ryouta)
[Come with me.]Â (Celeste)Â (TLN: Okay)
Not knowing what she wanted, I just followed behind her.
[Itâs a samuraiâs mercyâŠ. No, an after service perhaps.] (Celeste) (TLN Note: It roughly translates to the benefits that a samurai gives to those who are weaker than themselves. Youâll understand after reading further.)
[Whatâs the matter Celeste, speaking to yourself.]Â (Ryouta)
[No itâs nothing. Now then, letâs go~]Â (Celeste)
After Ryouta and Celeste left, the Swallowâs Repayment office.
Elza, who doesnât know that she was being observed, had finished counting all the flowers, is now taking out the item that she received from Celeste.
The most popular/ hottest product in the market.
[Ryouta-sanâŠ.] (Elza) (TLN: I KNEW IT!)
Elza used the Bromide with her cheeks dyed red.
And Ryo-sama was summoned.
After it being summoned, it stood there quietly as they were no monsters.
Elza looks at Ryo-sama and smiles even more embarrassingly.
She gently let Ryo-sama, then sitting next to it.
Being alone, Elza places Ryo-samaâs head on her lap, and admiring it.
This was only a small percentage of what Ryo-sama was being used asâŠâŠ..
