Story 10.5: Party Formation Secret stories Part 3

Morning of the next day, Monica came to our house. Since Remillia mama has work again for today so for a meanwhile, I was magnificently able to go out in the premise of me playing outside.

Yesterday, since the Kobolt Leader subjugation request of Wendy’s has been achieved, our rank went up from Ｇ to Ｆ. Our schedule for today is handling easy monster subjugation requests of the Ｆ rank. Since we would be able to clear request with Ｅ rank, then I’m alright if it our rank goes up if it’s possible though.

「Shishou-sama, it’s wonderful that you were admitted by your mother! Nhhsho! Did you become more heavy?」

「Nothing changed from yesterday though……in other words, don’t you already need to not carry me?」

「No, this is also a part of my training. Even right now, I’m having a feeling like my body is getting stronger bit by bit……I-IT CAME, DE ARIMASU!」

◆Log◆

・《Wendy》’s 「Physique」 has risen!

（I see……so they’re also conscious at the moment when their physique shall rise）

I stared at her with admiration like a teacher. When she keeps on calling me Shishou-sama, I couldn’t help myself from getting it over my head a bit.

「Ah……Shi-, Shishou-sama. Monica-san seems to be calling us de arimasu」

Monica Nee-chan was in the place wherein she has gone out of the guild and was called by a party. It was the party that gave a sarcastic answer to Wendy yesterday.

「Hey you, though you just accepted an Ｆ rank request, which party are you with? If it’s alright with you, then why not join us and let us do it together. We don’t have a bow user in our party ya know」

「I’m sorry that I can’t meet your expectations. I’m already part of another party」

「Huh? Then why did you come to the guild alone today? If you say that you have comrades, then if you don’t show them then that reason wouldn’t be valid ya know?」

（……Well, well it can’t be helped that they’d be a bit irritated like that. But, for them to lay a hand on MY Monica Nee-chan……wait that’s wrong, 『MY』 would be a bit too much）

Since the purpose of those two guys were obvious, I would have overlooked them since they were just small fries but the string of my patience is twitching bit by bit. If I would say it then I’m fuming in anger right now. Though that’s an obsolete word from my past life but can I make it popular in this world too? But, I should leave that matter for later.

「If it’s my companions then they’re waiting over there. I’m back, Wendy, Hiroto」 (TLN: The urge to put “Kept you waiting, huh?” in this line is strong!)

(EDN: For those who don’t know the phrase that our fairy said is this)

「That girl, she was that yesterday……well what do you know, you were really able to raise you rank to F huh」

「It seems that you really want to enter our party so you desperately raised your rank huh. Well then, you and that bow user can both enter……」

「Hey you group of Onii-san, I’m also here too」

(TLN: These guys are finished. . . . . If they have MILF tier mothers then they better surrender them. . . . . Hell hath no fury like the wrath of NTR Baby Meister scorned)

Only at such times like this am I able to talk comparatively. For me to keep being quiet while being looked down upon in front of Wendy and Monica-san then I won’t be able to call myself a human male. When a man like me is still a 1 year old, it can be also called as a saint’s child.

「Ah……? What is this small kid. Whose kid is this? For you guys to take a baby while adventuring, are you really taking this seriously?」

「It is different. This child is our Leader……Comparing to you guys, he is more greatly reliable」

「Hey hey, aren’t you blowing off the wrong hole? For you to say that this kid is reliable then you two getting up to rank Ｆ is just pure dumb luck, Wahahahahahaha!」

「You should apologize while it’s still early, since Jester and Fyuugo became Ｆ rank was already a year ago now」

（……For them to still be an Ｆ rank for a year, how mush have they not grown. These fellows might be weaklings……）

While I was disregarding their insults, I activated my 「Charisma」 that was at Off――and thus, I peaked at the status of those 3 people, and I decided that those 3 weren’t even worthy of being looked at except for the remaining woman. Both the 2 guys are level ５, and their weapon skills are at a degree of level １０, and their HP weren’t that high. Their levels were enough for me to be their enemy alone.

However, one of them――who had a long floating like hair, which can be said to be a beautiful woman aside from her suspicious impression.

（Monster User……the success rate of training would go up in which it is a job that can make monsters into your companion. This is a skill that I really want to take）

Though it was evident that the woman named Hilmelda-san’s strength is really higher than those 2 and since she evaluated Jester and Fyuugo highly so it seems like she wasn’t aware of the fact that she was the strongest of their party. This thing also happens sometimes, when even if the female member is stronger in case of the numerical value and her physique is only good so she thinks that men are stronger than her.

「Fufufu…… Little boy, what is the problem for you to look at me like that so intently. Though I don’t hate kids but I won’t side with you even if you look at me like that」

「Yo-you’re wrong. I was not looking at you Onee-san」

「Oh, is that so? Maybe it is just my misunderstanding. I’m really sorry alright」

「Hilmelda, don’t take care of that kid like that. Sigh, you really are a moody woman」

「What is it, are you now aware of yourself being a baby that stinks of milk? Wahahaha, this kid is a masterpiece」

（Then comparing to you guys, I’m the one that this girl is interested in）

(TLN: REKT)

While I wasn’t worrying about what those men are saying, I was thinking about other things in my mind.

That woman named Hilmelda-san however seems to be not a bad person. Though she praised her companion but for them to still be F rank even when 1 year has passed so it’s very doubtful that if they would be able to get to Ｄ rank. To such a talented person, though I didn’t want to leave her buried like this……Well, it’s up to the individual on who they would party up with.

「Anyways, since we are already a party so please invite another person」

「Hmmm……don’t regret this later on alright」

When Monica Nee-chan said it clearly, Jester threw a dialog that seemed like a villain’s dialog. Though I was a bit annoyed but there’s no use if I got angry.

「If you 2 enter our party then there won’t be any danger and you’d be able to earn some money too」

「Fyuugo, shouldn’t you leave it at that already? Well, you are not ill-humored either. If you went up to Ｆ rank then you’ll be our rivals that will take the same request like us, then shall we admit your ability」

「Well I’ll accept that. We’re in a hurry too so we’ll be taking our leave now」

（Muuuu, such a regrettable talented person. Though I wanted to scout her……）

(TLN: Stop lying to yourself since you just want to suck her breasts)

Since Monica-san’s impression for those 3 is bad now, so it became pretty difficult……Though I also have a choice of charming Hilmelda-san but that would make me feel like I’m pillaging someone. If I did that then those 2 men’s pride would completely collapse. If I did that then it would be too cruel for me.

While thinking so, the previously masked person came out from the guild. She wore a Blazer like clothes that a Sorceress would often wear and moreover above it is a mantle that she has on. This woman who indeed had a mysterious figure has called unto us and not Jester and his friends.

「Yow, so we meet again. I’m sorry for all of you for getting caught up with that since they’re not so much bad like that」

「Don’t butt in on us, Nameless. Did you forget your favor for being picked up by us?」

「Since you just got a bit able to use some techniques then are you getting a bit arrogant huh」

「I’m sorry, I wasn’t really……I’m sorry for my way of talking right now」

「You two, since she became a valuable war potential so don’t be too severe on her」

Though Jester and Fyuugo were abusing the woman who they call 『Nameless』 with words but after I glanced at her mask, I did not overlook her body’s lower part――in other words, it’s just like what I was thinking.

（Is this the thing called someone’s nose that extends……while talking about it in a naughty way, why am I getting DereDere. That’s the most useless pattern）

(TLN: Someone’s nose that extends = Hana no shita ga nobiru = Your Ultra horny face)

Nameless is hiding her eyes with her mask & though I could only see her mouth but she had a fair skin complexion and her lips are quite unexplainably amorous so I can imagine from her refreshingly cool voice that she’s quite a beautiful woman. Though she chose quite slender clothes and yet it can be perceived that she has a fairly big chest while her foot that expands from her knee length skirts shuts a bit moderately and her tights equipment really suited her. Since she was tall with a small face, the difference between her and those two guys could be seen when they’re lined up.

……wait, this is like I’m also evaluating her. Even if you say that no one would be overcautious when the other party is a child but it would be impolite if I didn’t stop now.

「Sigh, I hope that you understand your standpoint now. Since were having a hard time being the vanguard then you’d be unwounded」

「Yeah, I’ll acknowledge that. I’ll always be indebted to you all」

「Tha-that’s why, you should join us in drinking tonight. Every time you refuse our invitation, Hilmelda always says that she’s lonely to be the only girl there」

「Oh……Though I haven’t said something like that. I also don’t join you two that frequently too」

「Gu……We-well that’s so too……」

(TLN: Tch. . . . . She’s Hirotos prey! Take yar hands away from her)

I could already understand the interpersonal relationship of their party by just looking at them for a bit. Though those two guys are wooing those ladies, the ladies at the end, just sees them as party members.

「I-it’s for the celebration after our promotion duty to become Ｅ rank you know. It would be strange if we 4 people weren’t complete on that right?」

「Well I’m reluctant if that’s the case. Then I’ll also join too……How about you?」

「My humble self is……it is so. After passing the promotion test then……」

(TLN: She’s using Shousei when talking about herself. . . used when talking to people of equal stature to you but it’s old)

「Oh, OOHH!……did you finally become interested. Well Fyuugo, isn’t that good」

「Ah, yeah……For that matter, should I make a reservation in a restaurant? The sake served in the bar of the guild is limited……kuku」

（Well that looks like an evil smile……By no means do I think of it but are they thinking of something bad……?）

(TLN: Obviously)

Will that party receive a promotion test hereafter……How would that be in the case that it’s a monster subjugation request. Though I think that it would be difficult if those 2 were their vanguards with their abilities.

Jester, Fyuugo, and Hilmelda headed over to the forest. Before joining them, Nameless walked to us.

「I sincerely apologize. If you had an unpleasant time with them then please accept my humble self’s apology」

「Nah……Though I thought about it while looking, you’re a bit troubled too. Do you have a reason to not go out of that party?」

「W-well let’s leave me from the time that I wanted to join them but this might be strange for me to say – de arimasu…… but the eyes of those guys when they look at women felt very perverted – nano de arimasu. Perversion is bad – de arimasu!」

(TLN: Uhm Wendy-chan, Can you please tell that to the demonic breast milk sucker yar holding on to?)

(EDN: Dude, it’s better to call him a Breast Sucking Incubus)

The remark of Wendy（１３）who blushed from the deed done by a 1 year old, was that act not perverted, while I admired myself. Since it’s not bad if it’s not perverted then I won’t hold back anymore when I ask for it another time. Wait, it seems like I’m making a defiant attitude……well it’s true though.

「I do not think that they see my humble self as a female though. Well my humble self has no concern for men as of the present either and since I have no time to think about those things then I’m reluctant that it would become strange」

「Well, though it would be alright if you say it like that…… but are you really alright? Even if you say that it’s for uniting of a party but to join those guys to drink Sake……」

It looks like Monica Nee-chan is really worried about Nameless. However Nameless showed us a smile that looked like we had nothing to worry about.

「Well my humble self is strong against Sake too. Even if they tried to kill my humble self but they would fail at that since my humble self won’t be drugged. Thanks for worrying about my humble self」

「Tha-that’s amazing – de arimasu ne……if it’s sake then I once mistakenly drunk one but it was so bitter for my mouth to handle」

「Ahaha, Wendy seems to be weak against it huh, obviously. You shouldn’t get accustomed to it however since its more fun to be able to just drink to some degree. It’s also fun to drink with women too」

「Until Hiroto can be allowed to drink, until he becomes an adult, would take him １４ years huh – de arimasu ne……」

「Hm……Though I’ve been thinking about this for a while. Isn’t this such a lovely child. Are you guys playing with him?」

(TLN: Okay guys *Wears shades and jacket* Time to Skill Grind)

◆Log◆

・「Charisma」 has been invoked!　《Nameless》’s hermit mask’s effect has nullified Charisma.

(TLN: . . . . . tch, another hard one huh?)

(EDN:………..tsk, another gal that will fall head over heels in love!? Like Fillianess-san(Saint Knight) that wears a circlet that ward off Hiroto’s charm then after bypassing the circlet she fall head over heels in love to Hiroto that she’ll give her whole body and soul?! OMG!)

（Nullification huh……Is it the effect of her equipment?　The Hermit’s mask……I haven’t heard anything about it）

Nameless-san approached me. Since there was a thin cut in the eye part of the mask so it seems like that is where she could see her surroundings. She really is a beauty when she’s near you as I thought so……if only I could look a bit more from underneath then I might be able to see her face.

Since the log displays her name as 《Nameless》 however then it really isn’t her nickname which means that the real name of this woman is Nameless. Will there be such a thing?

「……His eyes are clear. Even though he’s still a child but I can feel a profound prudence on him」 (TLN: This sounds like a Xianxia novel. . . . . YUN CHE!?!. . . nah)

「Ah……Y-yeah. I, understand the things that adults say」

「Is that so……Fumu. If that is so, then my humble self should be paying attention to you huh……」

「Eh……?」

「Ah, It is nothing. My humble self have said something weird huh so please forget what my humble self has just said」

(TLN: Fumu is the sound those japs make when they accept some kind of fact or something)

Nameless patted my head. Though I could only see the smile on her mouth but I noticed that some Rouge is applied on her lips. Though cosmetics can’t be easily obtained in this world but it seems like she has obtained it from somewhere.

(TLN: The raw used Rouge so I’ll use it too.

Rouge = a red powder or cream used as a cosmetic for coloring the cheeks or lips. )

「Alright, if my humble self would return safely then it would be possible for us to meet again. If I honestly say it, my humble self’s party isn’t that strong. They are in a hurry to raise their ranks too……though I was thinking that there was still hope with Hilmelda but my humble self shall decide to go out of their party if they still won’t get stronger」

「Hmm……Nameless-san, you? Well, I don’t know if your name is truly Nameless」

「No, it’s alright if you just call my humble self Nameless. I cannot introduce my humble self’s name. Such a restriction is put unto my humble self」

「Limitation……huh – de arimasu ka?」

「I think that there is such a thing and it is alright if you overlook it. If you guys exceed Ｅ rank and aim for the Ｄ rank then……at that time, would you allow my humble self to join your ranks?」

「Yes, I don’t mind. If we would have a magic user then our party would be balanced」

(TLN: Of course yar welcome Ma- oops kekekeke)

(EDN: Of course yar welcome Madam ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) )

（So Nameless is saying that she’ll join us if our party’s rank shall go up huh……）

(TLN: Rank up party -> Get Sorceress and Monster User -> Skill Grind -> Pokemon catcher Magician Hiroto!)

(EDN: GET OUT OF HIS WAY! SUCKLING TANK HIROTO IS COMING!)

Though we just ranked up to Ｆ but our battles wasn’t that hard. It is from Ｄ rank that the difficult things would start and since Ｅ rank is also a beginner level. If I wanted to then it would be possible for us to accept the rank raising quest now.

However, it’s not like I’ll accept that request since it’s good for our convenience――is what I thought though.

「This is an unexpected meeting however. Since the request that can be taken from Ｆ rank is low then we shall also accept the rank raising request to Ｅ rank too. Perhaps, weren’t they expecting a competition between us?」

（NICE, Monica Nee-chan……!）

(TLN: Nice Monica. . . Let’s show them the true power of the Breasts Rapist)

For Monica Nee-chan, she wanted to accept the promotion request if it was possible. Since we still have room for improvement since the last battle with the Kobolt Leader back then, then I can already see the possibility of raising our rank to Ｅ.

「Muu……I understand. The subjugation request of 3 Kobolt Leaders……We also have the same request as them. With this kind of subjugation request then the winners would be the ones faster huh……」

「That is still ahead though were also ahead too. Well, since we won’t complain even if we were forestalled then please don’t worry about it」

「In case……is because you think that our possibility to win is low huh. What is your name, milady?」

「I’m Monica and this is Wendy. And then this adorable child is our Leader……Hiroto」

「……Leader……this, small baby boy……?」

She’s surprised as I expected……Monica-san took the role of holding me and I felt sad that her chest was covered in her Sarashi. Please let me feel it, is what I wanted to say to her.

(TLN: This ERO baby. . . you truly are my Hero)

Nameless smiled again while she looked at me. Then she messed up my hair while stroking it and then she also rubbed my cheeks while she pinched it too until she also caressed my ears.

「Fuu……Na-Nameless Onee-chan, what’s wrong? Is there something on my face?」

「I-I don’t think so……Are you now interested in Hiroto? I’m not giving him top you though」

「No, it’s nothing. it’s nothing, is what my humble self should say. For some reason or another, I just felt a bit happy」

「Waa～……I-is that, the thing that they call love at first sight – de arimasu ka? If that is so, then I would have to recognize you as my rival」

「Fufufu, Oh dear, my humble self don’t really mind receiving your rivalry. When my humble self looks at Hiroto-kun like this then my humble self get the feeling like wouldn’t it be good to make a child too. Though my humble self didn’t think that my humble self would be having that way of thinking too」

「Then shouldn’t you stop giving those other guys a chance for you to become their other party?」

「My humble self can say that is natural since they truly don’t have any idea on how to get women. Though I’ve always refused their courteous invitations up to the present. I’m actually troubled that they still haven’t gotten a clue on what I meant」

If that is so, then how about just joining our party right now――is what I thought though.

But it seems like it has already been decided that Nameless shall join them in their quest right now. She might also have an obligation of being with them up till now.

「Alright, let’s pray for safety each other. Good luck, is what I should say huh」

(TLN: She said Good luck in ENGLISH)

Nameless walked away with that last message of her. Good luck……for her to say that word in this different world, so does that mean that it’s normal?……Nah, since there are skill and items that are written in English so I can’t say that that is impossible.

「Gudla? Wendy, what’s that?」

「Maybe it means that good fortune is what the other party wishes is what I think it means – de arimasu」

「I-I also think that it is so……we should also go now since our target might get taken from us」

「As long as we find it then we would certainly defeat that Kobolt Leader. When I was also hunting with my father, we also knocked those guys down with traps」

(TLN: TRAPS are dangerous!)

(EDN: TRAPS! TRAPS! TRAPS! EVERYWHERE IN THE NET! Wait……….are we talking about that kind of “trap” or the other kind of “trap”? Uwehhhhhhh)

Now that she says it……I was thinking that Monica-san is very reliable but how strong is she actually?

Though only Monica-san’s physique is low but her weapon skill can even rival the knight member Marle-san ability wise. In case of this then the Kobolt Leader won’t even be able to be our enemy and the party a while ago won’t even have a step ahead of us. They didn’t mind us since they saw us as a weak party and I understood that they didn’t plan on having any trouble against us.

「Hmm? What’s wrong Hiroto for you to look at me like that with your eyes like they’re shining like stars which wasn’t like that a while ago. If you make your eyes big like that then you’re turning into a too cute child」

「Y-yeah……I was just thinking of how awesome Monica Nee-chan is」

「Since Monica is reliable then Shishou-sama can be at ease. However, for me, Shishou-sama is the strongest in the whole world!」

「Ha-Hawawawa……I’m not anything like that. Monica Nee-chan, my best regards from today onward」

「If you straight up say that to me then I’ll be embarrassed. It’s alright if you don’t worry about it since I’m also doing what I want to do」

Monica-san says so while she carries me with a beautiful smile. I’ve really been kept alive thanks to everyone’s maternity…… I had a very deep gratitude towards everyone.

「Uh-uhm……Monica-san, holding Shishou-sama is my role」

「Lifting up and hugging Hiroto like this makes you feel like melting on his softness huh. I’ve always liked his face for a long time now」

「That is……that is certainly true – de arimasu. I’m sure that Shishou-saama’s mother is truly happy since she’s able to hug such a cute child like this every day」

(TLN: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . )

(EDN:*Screaming Internally*)

Would it be fine if I’m an unsociable baby is the first thing that I was severely worried about. Though mother calls me cute at the present――but once I grow older then their interaction to me as a baby would be gone.

It is necessary for me to polish my charm as a person. That is one of my targets since it’s also an important condition in establishing a guild.

◇◆◇

We who have entered the forest have been recognized as an enemy and have continuously defeated rabbits and goblins while proceeding our way forward.

As to what extent can I fight, is what I shown to the half convinced Monica Nee-chan first of all.

「Even though it’s just a toy Axe but it’s unrelated now. If I wields it like this then……」

「……Hiroto, that’s dangerous!」

「Monica Nee-chan, it’s alright!」

(TLN: Dammit I see Wendy as Haruna from Kancolle. . . . HARUNA WA DAIJOBU DESU)

(EDN: One of the kanmusu that everyone adore so much……..Let’s give a round of applause to Touyama Nao(Chitoge’s VA from Nisekoi))

◆Log◆

・《Goblin Ａ》 attacks!

・You were unaffected by the attack.

Since there is a damage reduction with physique then a goblin’s attack isn’t effective against me. Even if an enemy attacks me but it won’t absolutely hit me.

Even though a １ year old is quick but to exchange attacks with a goblin, it seems like I’ll be needing to move in an evasive manner――however since the attack of a goblin averts the trajectory without permission then their attacks that should have hits me shall miss. Though I don’t understand what kind of mechanism it is but it seems like skill points greatly interferes with this world’s laws of physics.

And so while I have this Axe, I raised it while aiming at the goblin and invoked my skill. Then my body moves on its own and my axe enters a regulated trajectory mysteriously to deal an effective damage.

「……!」

◆Log◆

・You have fired off 「Wood Chop」!

・《Goblin Ａ》 received ４１damage!　《Goblin Ａ》 has been defeated.

「Giiii!」

Though the goblin tried to defend with its dagger but it still received straight onward my attack, was blown off and turned into specks of light then disappeared. The sound effect at this time seems to have a feeling like it’s changed from when it was on the game.

However this world is real and not a game. The sensation of killing the goblin still lingered on my hands――though, it was killed automatically by my skill.

「The goblin’s attack didn’t hit……and for him to defeat it in one attack. Even though I can’t believe it but I have to believe it since I saw it with my own eyes……Hiroto, did you receive axe lesson from Ricardo-san?」

「Y-yeah……though I just mimicked while looking」

(TLN: One Attack Baby. . . I wonder if 1 year old Hiroto has hair or is he bald as expected?)

(EDN: Anytime soon he’s cyborg disciple will come out……. I think)

I’m certain that my Axe mastery rised by living together with papa. When I pairied up with Wendy to a party, I left the party of papa. Since there is no influence in family relationships then I want you to overlook me from there.

「If you show me this, then I’ll have to admit Hiroto and Wendy huh……」

「Yes……Even right now, I’m still not able to forget what happened at that time. I was in danger from fighting against the Kobolts but Shishou-sama gallantly came to my rescue……」

「Uhh, Wendy, that story is embarrassing so please stop」

「For you to be saved by a 1 year old then it would be normally be embarrassing……is what I wanted to say. I have already understood Hiroto’s ability. If you and Wendy attracts the attention of the enemy then I will be able to aim at them. Our party would be able to coordinate safely」

「Yes, thanks Monica Nee-chan. Alright then, let’s search for the Kobolt Leader faster then……」

「――Kyaaaaaaaaa!」

At that moment, a shriek resounded across the whole forest. Apparently, it is the raised voice of Hilmelda-san.

「……It looks like something happened……let’s hurry up, you two!」

I took the initiative and begun to rush to the direction of the voice――and, of all the things that we could see, we passed by 2 men running for their lives.

「Thi-this isn’t a joke, I didn’t hear anything about that monster!」

「Even of all the Kobolt Leaders, wasn’t that an even more dangerous one……Dammit SHIT!」

The ones who were complaining while escaping were Jester and Fyuugo――there’s no need to guess it since those 2 obviously left the other two women and ran away for themselves.

「Those guys don’t have any guts……I’ll just tell Brewers-san so they will criticize that party!」

「Let’s have that for later, I’m worried for Nameless-san and Hilmelda……Tha-that’s dangerous……!」

「tch……Hiroto, Wendy, open up a line for shooting!」

On the tip of our view is an open place in the forest where the appearance of a Kobolt Leader that was much bigger than the one I fought yesterday. The sorceress that was in our presence――which was Nameless is now about to get hit it by its club.

「Guruuuuuu!」

「――『Flame』!」

Nameless chanted and shot out a spell――that was an attack spell which was a basic for a sorceress, it changes its power depending on the level which is called 『Fireball』.

◆Log◆

・《Nameless》 chanted 「Fireball」!

・《Kobolt Leader Ａ》 received ５４ damage!

（The durability of the Kobolt Leader is over １５０……it’s still far before it becomes a finishing attack. And the attacks aren’t getting canceled……!）

「The person named Nameless, stand down!」

◆Log◆

・《Monica》 used Long Range Shot!

・《Kobolt Leader Ａ》 received ４８ damage!　Its attack has been canceled!

「Gaaaaa!」

It received Monica Nee-chan’s arrow from its middle forehead so the Kobolt Leader finally flinched and its attack got canceled.

The approach of the Kobolt Leader has been released, and Nameless who was just the only one attacking and Hilmelda who couldn’t do anything but look finally took her whip that was equipped on her waist and shook it.

「Those guys, for them to leave me and run away……I’ll never forgive them……!」

◆Log◆

・《Hilmelda》 attacks!

・《 Kobolt Leader Ａ》 received ２３ damage!

（We still can’t finish him up huh……If that is so then I’ll……!）

While continuing the chant and earlier than the 2nd shot, I went into the bust of the Kobolt Leader. I could hear the surprised voice of Nameless――but all explanations comes after this.

「――Seyaaaaaa!」

◆Log◆

・You have shot out 「Wood Chop」!

・《Kobolt Leader Ａ》 has received ４２ damage!　《Kobolt Leader Ａ》 has been defeated.

・Your level went up!　You have obtained ３ skill points.

・《Wendy》’s level went up!　She has obtained ３ skill points.

「Ga……Garuuuuu……」

At the chest of the Kobolt Leader, I charged with my small axe. And when the Kobolt Leader dropped its club, it started to disappear while standing.

「Such an unthinkable party member……In the case of Kobolt Leaders, they might be an easy fight for Ｅ ranks」

「Kuu……Well, in my previous fight……the vanguards would receive its attacks with their shields and with the fireball of Nameless then we would be able to stop it at a long distance……that was the strategy that we were going with but those guys……tch」

Since it was bigger than the Kobolt Leader previously then they wouldn’t be able to defeat it with the same pattern so did they panic and ran away……Though I’m not sure but it’s unforgivable for the Vanguard and rear guard to just leave and run away. Hilmelda-san was deeply disappointed too as she severely bit her lips.

「You should draw out your mind faster you know – de arimasu yo……Shishou-sama, what should we do -de arimasu ka, we have 2 more kobolt leaders to hunt……」

「Since the Leaders don’t crowd with each other then there is still time before they come here! If everyone attacks then we can beat them!」

「……Hiroto-kun, where have you heard the traits of the Kobolt Leader……?」

Though Nameless was surprised but I couldn’t explain it to her. The Kobolt Leader’s traits too and its HP too is a knowledge from the previous world.

Since 1 year has passed since I’ve been reincarnated, my knowledge has also weakened too. I noticed that I needed to write it down and paid attention to the second Kobolt Leader. If I didn’t knock it down at once then its kobolt followers would go here when they here its cries.

「The same a little while ago, we shall beat them all together. Nameless-san and Hilmelda-san, would you lend us a hand?」

「You do not need to say it. My humble self has already been planning on doing that」

「I have no choice huh……for us to join force in clearing this quest. I can’t say that our own party’s strength was enough to raise our ranks to Ｅ though」

「That ain’t true – de arimasu yo. We all beat that Kobolt leader with the power of you two too – de arimasu !」

Yes, if Wendy also attacked a while ago then the frequency to which damage can be dealt would go up――the danger of missing to finish off an enemy vanish. If we certainly drive an attack then we’ll absolutely win……!

「Let’s go, everyone……!」

『UNDERSTOOD!』

I have received their answer and I and Wendy started up a raid. Though the Kobolt leader has an old war wound, it aimed at us and swung an atrocious rusty Nata like weapon――I with my small body incited the attack of the enemy, evaded it and made a chance attack.

「Now -de arimasu……Waaaaaa!」

「Don’t move, I’ll shoot!　Though I’ll shoot even if you move!」

「『Flame』!」

「HouuHohoho!　This mangy mutt, come here and lick my shoes!」

(TLN: Summon my Editor KickMyNose-san! This nee-san wants you to lick her shoes it seems. . . maybe she’ll also stomp you and whip you too xD )

(EDN: MY BODY IS READY FOR PAIN! But I want to lick her foot after her bath ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) )

Though it was alright for us to gang up on the enemy but Hilmelda-san……she becomes like this character when she’s given a weapon. Sarasa-san is also a whip user but maybe their usage of it is different.

(TLN: Insert Le Plutia from hyperdimension nep)

(EDN: My inner M is tingling dammit)

◇◆◇

「――Yaaaaah!」

・《Wendy》 released 「Mow Down」!

・《Kobolt Leader Ｃ》 received ３３ damage!　《 Kobolt Leader Ｃ》 has been defeated!

・《Wendy》’s level went up!　She has obtained ３ skill points.

・《Wendy》’s 「Sword Mastery」 skill has risen!

・Your 「Axe Mastery」 skill has risen!

・Monica’s 「Bow Mastery 」 skill has risen!

・Nameless’s 「Magic Attainments」 skill has risen!

・Hilmelda’s 「Whip Mastery」 skill has risen!

At the moment when Wendy dealt the finishing blow to the last Kobolt Leader, a large quantity of level ups from the log has flowed. This wonderful feeling hasn’t changed even when I went to a different world.

「Haaa, Haaa……Tho-though I’ve already dealt the final blow……I can’t move anymore……」

「Are you alright? Though it looked like basic techniques but you’ve considerably used it in rapid succession……」

「Wendy, I have a mana potion. Since the magic grass was taken home yesterday, I made some at home too」

「Is that true – de arimasu ka? I’m really grateful, Shishou-sama……Puhaa, I’ve been revived – de arimasu～……」

It was possible for us to defeat those Kobolt Leaders when we fought it by all of us 5. Wendy also raised her level favorably and the day where she’ll master a new skill won’t be too far.

「Would Nameless-san want to drink too? Since you’ve used many magic spells then you’d be tired obviously」

「……Yeah. Let my humble self pay the price of that, since my humble self has money too」

「No need for that, it is unnecessary for me. Since it’s because of Nameless-san’s magic that we all survived」

Though Nameless quietly listened to what I said but when she took the potion I took out, she stared at it for a bit and released the cap to drink it up. I could see her white neck as it made the sound of *Koku* while drinking it down.

◆Log◆

・《Nameless》 drank the mana potion.

・《Nameless》 has recovered ５０ mana points!

Though the amount of recovery of the mana potion is ２０ at the lowest, the amount of recovery increases according to user’s maximum mana so it recovers by the highest of ３０％ of the maximum mana. Which means that below the decimal point is rounded off then her maximum mana would be １６８ points. Which also means her Magic attainments is １２ points.

Though magic users don’t usually have high levels but they have abilities which is a bit stronger than the adventurers in this town. Of course since Magic attainments １２ is at an opening level of the game for this town of course.

「Fuu……My humble self have recovered. Is this also the making of Hiroto-kun?」

「Yeah. Since I know how to make it」

「……I see. You don’t only know how to use an axe but also know about monster’s traits while also knowing how to make potions. Though my humble self couldn’t believe that such a small kid like you were the party leader but it was all my humble self’s misunderstanding. For my humble self to judge a person by their appearance is what I decided to not do in my heart and mind……my humble self should start reflecting on this matter」

「That child……Well, oh dear, though it was dangerous but he has some qualities huh. Unlike the men in our party, I can see more potential in you than them」

(EDN: We all know that, we got a badass baby here)

From Hilemlda-san came a sudden evaluation. However, it isn’t a good policy for me to show my fighting appearance to many spectators. I’m glad that those 2 guys ran away.

「I’m not so good at attacking so much. I would originally let my monsters do the fighting though……but if it’s possible for me to use humans as a meat shield is what I thought about. Well, the result is as you can see. With those two scaredy cat guys which are now useless」

「Me-meat shields – de arimasu ka……though it’s a very strange word but isn’t that a bit awful」

「If you don’t think about that then how are we going to unite this party later ahead? Since those guys looks like they’re useless now……and their fickleness when females join their party too」

Wendy and Monica Nee-chan gave an unpleasant but wholesome advice. Hilmelda didn’t object but just whiffing smile without strength.

「I tried to live my life in an easy way huh. Even if I train your monster hard but if they die then I’ll have to start over again. If that’s the case then I just had to train men and use them would be more of an effective way is what I thought but using humans isn’t really better. Unlike you guys」

「It’s not the fact of using or not using……You know, I’ll just tell you since you don’t look like you have any common sense. Other people aren’t your pawns?」

「A-and with that, I also felt like those guys a while ago are a bit reliable too」

「Yeah, well. I didn’t have a hard time in raising my rank to Ｆ. Though I was ascertaining on those men’s limits but it seems that it has been clear now. Ahh, Isn’t there a stronger man in this world?」

（Well, since person believes that she’s a bit strong herself then I can’t say that she’s a leech……In case of what I felt from today then she won’t be able to join a good party. Monster users would be useless if they don’t train monsters）

Though she has an attitude problem but I also had a lot of those in my former guild and there were also fun people who wanted to get stronger. Though it was more of that they haven’t change their way of thinking but the influences of my companions of the guild is what they receive and they learn the joy of training and start to change their play-style. Some people would also change their class while raising it and report it in the chat. Nurturing your own character is the enjoyment of a game and that is where it all starts.

Though this person doesn’t have any enthusiasm as an adventurer――but it’s like, can I not make a chance for her. While I was thinking about that, Hilmelda-san came near to me. She crouches down and looked at me intently……Wha-what is this. It’s not like it feels like she’s staring at me.

「From Jester and Fyuugo, looks like I can use this little boy more. How about it? Would you want to play with me?」

「Shi-Shishou-sama is not playing around, he is serious in being an adventurer!」

「You’re doing what you want huh, really now……Hiroto is our companion. He’s not a thing that you can use」

She didn’t worry about Monica-san and Wendy getting mad and Hilmelda-san just looked at me. She had a fair white skin and purplish eyes that was not in my front. Though her hanging like eyes make her look like a docile woman but she herself was a wicked woman is what it felt like. Her loosely web like hair was of the same color as her eyes and though it was a vivid color of the different world but I could not sense the feeling of incompatibility.

（……Ho-however……Though I checked it a while ago, she had an amazing amount of maternity）

Being a woman who has a maternity of ３８ wasn’t very high as the ones I’ve previously seen but if I had to guess then her cup would be from Ｄ～Ｅ. Though she was wearing a cloth shirt beneath her leather armor but the part of her chest was considerably made widely.

The skill of monster users isn’t really needed since Negotiation technique has exchange. Though I wanted her monster language skill――but with this relationship then reaching １０ points of that skill would be difficult. My party members might also be intimidated if I plainly used my charm. I cannot suckle though I want to suckle, I’m about to put away the food that has been presented unto me again.

「Well, that is so. For me to release this child with a promising future because of my convenience then it would be an insect’s good story huh. Well then, this talk is already over」

「Y-you quickly gave up huh -de arimasu ne……you have no chance in catching him – de arimasu」

「You’ve said it well. Thereupon, what would you do now Nameless? Though I will come off for today now」

「My humble self will just overlook them for my gratitude towards them from the past. Since they have also fulfilled their roles as a party from the past」

「Hmm……you’re so faithful. Though you’re a bit uninterested. Associating with me until the end will ensure you that it will not give you any trouble in the future now. However, giving those guys their share of the rewards of the quest wouldn’t be appropriate」

「The ones who didn’t do their jobs won’t be given huh……well, since we had a joint struggle then how about sharing for ７:３?」

（Monica Nee-chan, she’s firmly good at handling the talks with money……she’s really reliable. I would be the one who should be excelling in negotiation techniques, usually）

With Negotiation technique １００, I could also use Monica Nee-chan’s knowledge at the present which could make us equals. Hilmelda doesn’t complain and Nameless also agreed.

However……they will be drinking Sake with those 2 guys and they will part ways as the end. Though there wasn’t such a happening like that in the game but we would have an overnight in the guild house and just chat random stupid stuff all night.

I’m somehow worried about them however……Though I could say that Jester and Fyuugo are bad and I feel like I can’t say any praises to their characters. If their female party members tell them that they wanted to disband but will they obediently accept that.

「Though my humble self thinks that ３ is still too big. If the lady didn’t shoot her arrow then my humble self would have been hit by the club. Though my humble self thinks that my humble self wouldn’t die but my humble self would have taken a serious wound. Since they and my humble self were free and we didn’t have a lot of income then it became a vital question if we would receive a request or not」

「Since I could not say that I’ve also contributed a bit much then I’m also alright……and after that. That little boy over there is the Leader mm I right? Though you’re still too small」

「Yeah, I am the Leader……Wha-wa, what is it?」

Hilmelda san lifted me unto her arms. Since it was too spontaneous then I couldn’t prepare myself from it.

「It can’t be helped that I’m worried over such a strong little boy. It would be alright if I just trained a nearby monster and make it into this little boy’s guardian beast. Well, the monsters that I can train are still limited to some kinds though」

「Tra-train monsters……? Can such a thing be done?」

「If Hiroto says that he wants to then I won’t stop him but……Hilmelda, you’re not thinking of anything funny are you」

「This is just a normal reward from me and doesn’t concern both of our sides. Since you’ve also helped us then I won’t do anything bad. Since this little boy is so cute then there’s also a thing called giving him something special……so how is it? I think that a rabbit can be easily raised by you」

Though it is easy to raise it but the rabbit family ain’t for combat so much. As Hilmelda said herself, if the monster that is being trained receives enough damage then they will also die and reviving them would be impossible. In other words, I would like to hope for a guardian beast that has a high defense and vitality power.

（However, the monster user skill is 『Easy Training』……Negotiation technique’s ９５ points skill 『Subordination』is much more advanced skill than that）

The monsters that could be obtained with simple training skill was only low leveled monsters in the game. Since Monster users would obtain Subordination skill when they reach ５０ skill points which would hasten the training of a monster and though it also has a skill of temporarily making monster nearby to become their subordinate for 1 hour but since I already have the Subordination skill then I wouldn’t need to obtain Hilmelda’s trained monster.

If she says that this is just a reward then I wanted something else――I’m too obedient to my desires. When Hilmelda-san goes to the capital city however then the possibility for me to meet other monster users in this town would be low.

（A once in a life time encounter……With people who I just met that has a job that I’ve seen for the first time, thought I would like to ask if it was possible……!）

In my baby’s age where I thought that it can’t be helped that people get charmed by me and then I became quite aggressive. If I failed to negotiate here however, 「What the hell is this perverted baby」 might be said unto me. That would give me a large damage so if I don’t carefully do this then…….

「Uh, Uhm……Hilmelda-san. I wanted to talk to you a bit with just the two of us……」

「Huh? I don’t really mind though……is it alright? Those 2 Onee-chan of yours are really staring at us with scary eyes」

「I-I wasn’t looking at you with those kinds of eyes……Though it is alright if you go for a little bit but I’ll never forgive you if you tease Hiroto a bit too much」

「Shishou-sama, see you soon – de arimasu! I shall be collecting the evidence that we defeated the Kobolt Leaders -de arimasu」

「My humble self shall also help. Though I’m also anxious about Hiroto-kun too but he might also have something planned」

Having obtained everyone’s permission, I entered the forest with Hilmelda. While she gazes at the surrounding scenery around us, she came to me without saying anything.

（The sound of flowing water can be heard near here……was this place near the river last time. Nah, let’s leave that aside……）

「Little boy, what’s wrong? If you wanted to have a monster then we might be able to catch some over there」

「Y-yeah……I wanted to keep this a secret from everyone though but I can do it by myself too」

「What did you just say……?」

Hilmelda-san opened her eyes widely. She thought that she was the only one who could use monsters.

In front of us at that time, a single monster appeared――a slime. It size looks like if finally became an adult and it had a water like jelly appearance. Though there is a possibility that it would shoot out a dissolving jelly when we get near its range but since it wasn’t prepared for a fight then it bounced of away from us at random.

「Be careful alright since slimes can melt weapons. It can also melt you small Axe, little boy」

「Okay, I’m fine. Look over there Hilmelda-san」

「Though it doesn’t look like it doesn’t have the will to attack us but it looks like you’re worried about it. Don’t strangely stimulate it okay」

Hilmelda-san who has the 『Demon Language』 skill understood the intention of the slime. While I was remembering the procedures of making the 『Subordination』 skill to succeed, I tried it for once.

◆Log◆

・ You have activated your 「Charm」 skill.

・「Charm」 has been invoked!　《Slime》has failed in its resistance and has entered in the state of charmed.

The slime trembled I think while its color changed to yellow and it became pink. Hilmelda-san who was looking at that opened her eyes widely and swallowed her voice.

「Wha-what happened……? The slime seems to have entered into a friendly state……No, it changed its color to show its goodwill for us. Even monster users can’t do this without doing many conditions……」

「Uh, uhm……Since I don’t hate slimes then maybe the slime thought of that too」

「For you to make contact with a monster through your mind……a person who possessed that talent also exists is what my teacher once said. You little boy is one of those people huh……Even if I see it with my own eyes but it’s still unbelievable」

The pink slime came to my direction and wanted to get spoiled by me. Okay, though it looks like jelly but looking at it like this makes it look really cute which doesn’t seem to be so. Since this slime shall be my Guardian beast #1.

◆Dialog◆

・ It is possible for 「Subordination」 skill to be used for the target 《Slime》 . Will you use it?　ＹＥＳ／ＮＯ

「Since you’re a good kid then would you like to be my friend?」

「Kyui Kyui!」

(TLN: This is where the legend of the Axe Knight and it’s Tentacle Slime’s conquest has started!)

◆Log◆

・《Slime》 has become your Guardian beast!

・Would you like to name it yourself?　ＹＥＳ／ＮＯ

（So a name can be automatically given huh……If that is so then its original name should be fine）

I selected the 「ＮＯ」 option in my mind. Though I’ve named many of the monsters I’ve tamed in my past life with Chuunibyou like names so I’ll just leave it to this world’s sense since it’s my first one.

(TLN: Chuunibyou = http://www. urbandictionary. com/define. php?term=Chuunibyou)

◆Log◆

・《Slime》’s name has been modified into 「Josephine」.

・《Josephine》 awaits your command. Will you order her something?　ＹＥＳ／ＮＯ

(TLN: Jo-Josephine Joestar?. . . GENDERBENT JOJOOOOOO)

(EDN: DA FAQ? A slime doing Jojo poses? DA FAQ again.)

（Josephine……I-I see. It was a female huh）

(TLN: I want her to become like Suu from Monmusu Nichijou hehe)

(EDN: Probably on level 50+ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Anything is possible in Hiroto’s current world)

When one automatically gives a name to monsters in Eternal Magia then it would change its name according to its gender. Though it doesn’t have any difference in sex with slimes yet but its race would change once it has been nurtured then changing its sex will occur.

「……With your age, I can’t believe that you have finished the training to become a monster user. Have you read some kind of book or something?」

「Nah, I didn’t read any book」

I could naturally do it once I was born, is a cheat that I can display but I didn’t declare it at that time. Though Hilmelda observes the slime that was with me and she seemed to understand something and breathed a bit deeply.

「You have done something that I’ve been trying to do for how so many years so easily. Even if I speak empty words but that fact is very great already. I already want to join your party and want to see you grow」

◆Log◆

・「Charisma」 has been invoked!　《Hilmelda》 has become attentive to you.

・「Charm」 has been invoked!　《Hilmelda》 failed in resistance and has entered the state of charmed.

（N-no, it’s not so……nah, well it’s also alright though what the hell am I saying）

「……Though I’m thinking of what am I actually saying. Even those girls also burn with strong jealousy for such a small child like you……I think that this is very strange. Though that’s from a while ago」

「Eh……Uh, Uhm……」

I suddenly came to question my action. Since the thing a while ago is different from the thing right now. For Hilmelda-san to understand the feelings of Wendy and Monica Nee-chan which means that…….

「You small child shouldn’t be too much cute like this & I’m sure of it. You should still be in your house with you mother but……you’re here now fighting with monsters huh. I can now understand their feeling of worrying about you. It would be too presumptuous of me to worry about you……Ahh, was that a little bit of a difficult word for you……」

If you’re talking about being presumptuous then would that even pass through me? I couldn’t imagine the Hilmelda-san from a while ago would say those words.

The effect of Charisma in addition has altered Hilmelda-san’s recognition towards me. It really seems to be like magic so as long as my charm shows this kind of effect then she would become very obedient with no exception.

「……I already told you that I desire to present to you a reward for saving me. If you’re able to make a monster into your companion by yourself then I’ll give you little boy something else. You can tell me anything, so tell me anything you want」

Though this was the woman who didn’t even admitted my existence a while ago but now her cheeks have faintly changed its color and her interest for me couldn’t be hidden in her eyes as she looked at me. Even though this is the effect of the skill but don’t misunderstand me――Since I’m considerably a simple guy.

「Uh, uhm……Ah……Hilmelda-san’s……」

「Say it to me closer. With that small voice of yours, I won’t be able to hear it……Come on, I’ll be able to hear it if it’s like this」

Hilmelda lifted me up to her arms and urged me to speak it to her ears. Though I couldn’t understand when I looked at it from afar but she had a small earring on her ear in the shape of the moon.

◆Log◆

・《Hilmelda》 waits for your instruction. Shall you order her something?　ＹＥＳ／ＮＯ

「……I-I, with Hilmelda-san’s, b-br……」

「It’s alright, even if you don’t hurry like that. Since you’re so small then it’s already amazing that you can talk with adults like this」

Hilmelda-san patted my back to settle me down. Her voice was very gentle, like she didn’t feel any precaution of what an outrageous thing that I shall be asking her later on.

For me to say something that I want with my own words was different from looking after a baby. I have a feeling inside of me of wanting to do that exactly and I put it out to the table.

「……I, want your……breast milk……」

It was a small voice. I didn’t think that it would be strange for her attitude to suddenly change.

Though she couldn’t say NO when she’s in this state of charmed but it’s not impossible. My heart throbbed faster as I wanted to run away but my face was hot and I couldn’t do anything. With my small body, my blood seemed to some around while I’m getting embarrassed.

Hilmelda-san crouched down while still carrying me on her arms and puts me down below for a moment. What kind of face does she have right now and though I was a bit scared of looking up――but ahead of that, a hand has rested on my head and started to pat it.

「Though I’m not your mother but is it alright?」

「Y-yes……once is alright for me……」

「If you’re hungry then I could buy other delicious stuff too. For you to say that you want my breast milk……Though I’m not sure if it would come out or not. Though you have an innocent face but you’re actually very naughty」

「I-I’m sorry……」

「……However, why is it really like this. These kinds of things……I haven’t thought of doing these things. But when you say that you want it then I start to think that it would be fine. I still don’t have a baby of my own, you know……?」

Her last words, was she denoting that she didn’t have a specific special one for herself, is what I thought.

She removed the tool that was holding her leather armor and her bountiful chest that was wrapped in the cloth shirt underneath her armor shook like it has finally escaped from being choked up which looked to me as it was like it was getting bigger. She pulled down her collar widely and what befell to my eyes was a thick white valley and I saw the place where that previous color changed to a different color,

「Shishou-sama, We have finished collecting the things that the demon has dropped – de arimasu!」

（She probably knew what was happening! It’s not like I’m really disappointed about this!）

The speed of her reaction at times like this shows that Hilmelda-san can rival Monica Nee-chan. She was slowly going to show her breasts to me but she immediately wrapped up her breasts with a sound of *ZING*, placed the tool on her leather armor, carried me like nothing happened & looked at Wendy with a smile.

「Thank you for your work today. I wanted to talk with him a bit more but it looks like that won’t do huh?」

「Ahahaha……Since Monica-san started to clicking her tongue a while ago but even if she could still wait but another minute is her limit」

「I-if that is so then there’s no helping it. Let us be off, Small boy」

「Y-yeah……」

(EDN:………….Cockblock)

(TLN: Dang it)

Though Wendy and Monica Nee-chan won’t come to hate me for it but them becoming sulky would be disastrous. If I restricted that and Hilmelda had a happy face while looking at me at that time then it felt to me like I grasped one of her weaknesses.

（Well, oh dear, suckling is already unnecessary for me. And even if I didn’t get the skill but since I have a skill of my own then a new skill can be taken with another way. It’s not like I’m really disappointed about this）

「Ah……Shi-Shishou-sama? Perhaps, are you hungry – de arimasu ka……?」

「Ah, uh, no. It’s nothing」

「Is that so……? That’s regretful – de arimasu ne. I’m actually fine with anytime that Shishou-sama wants it since my physical condition has been flawlessly straightened and did you know that I added vegetables to my eating habits now -de arimasu yo……?」

「Uh, uhm……Then shall I ask it of you next time」

「Is that true – de arimasu ka? If that is so then I want you to come to the inn that I’m staying at -de arimasu」

「Fufu……It’s wonderful if the relationships of everyone in the party is good. Maybe I should show a bit of interest in the members of my party. Of course, I’m talking about the next party that I’ll be joining」

With Hilmelda-san today, it seems like she has hardened her decision to leave her party now. If we have a chance to meet again someday and if she would be much stronger than her right now then she might have firmly nurtured monsters at that time.

（Oh, that’s right……I forgot about Josephine. It would be bad if I don’t order her to hide herself）

◆Log◆

・《Josephine》 turned down in the vicinity

If I put her like this then Josephine can always come to my side anytime if I summon her. Even besides that, she’ll also come when other people are nowhere of sight. Since the favorability of a tamed monster is high and since we just met a while ago then she’s a bit attached to me as her master.

Refusing Wendy’s proposal is really wasteful however……is what I thought. Though I’m being carried by her but when we join up with Monica Nee-chan then she handed me over to her. The fixed position in my party apparently was in the arms of Monica Nee-chan.
