Chapter 185 \nChapter 185 – Let's Stay at an Expensive Inn\n
The hope Kazane mentioned to Aikis was, of course, the Accumulator. And the other party to contact was Yuuko-nee. Kazane immediately wrote an email and sent it to Yuuko-nee, and the reply came back in less than an hour.
Simply explained, the content of the reply was that there was no problem with using an Accumulator for the weapon requested from Aikis, but she would like to send a capable person from Minshiana to make it a co-production. Also, if there was no problem with that condition, she would send in that capable person with the Flying Dragon Service tomorrow.
The Accumulator had a simple structure, so the manufacturing method would probably be known immediately after it showed up on the market anyway, but the method for producing the Muscle Clay was being monopolized by Minshiana and Tsuvara. Moreover, they could see how Aikis would handle the Accumulator with her techniques, so the merits likely outweighed the demerits.
Kazane was still at the workshop when she received the email, and after confirming with Aikis, she immediately sent OK as her reply. Since work on Naoki's exclusive weapon would start after that capable person arrived, he and Kazane decided to return to the hotel they had checked into earlier that day.
It was already evening. Kazane and Naoki decided to join their companions at the hotel's first floor restaurant.
◎ Dolmu City, Ordonal Hotel
「The Flying Dragon Service is convenient, isn't it.」
While eating dinner, Kazane brought up the topic of Yuuko-nee's email, and the discussion continued on to the Flying Dragon Service. The Dragon Knight contracted Benzel replied to Kazane.
「But there aren't very many tamed flying dragons. Since the price is ridiculously high and the ride isn't very comfortable for someone not accustomed to it, it isn't used to carry people very often.」
Kazane replied「That makes sense」after Benzel spoke. Then she cut her Hyvern beef fillet steak and carried it to her mouth. The current Kazane could probably chew rocks with her『Sturdier Teeth』Skill, but that Skill really wasn't necessary now, since it was so tender it was almost like she could drink it.
「Nevertheless, as expected from a hotel recommended by Benzel-san.」
「No no, the most important thing is that you're pleased. Well, I can't help but boast, though.」
The Ordonal Hotel was a first class hotel in Dolmu City, and it seemed it was a purveyor to the gourmet Benzel. By the way, although dragon meat could also be eaten at this hotel, in anticipation of the dragon steak from Nora in two days she purposely chose a non-dragon based meal. Even so, the flavor seemed to melt on her tongue. Kazane and the others had continuously eaten delicious things since coming to this world, but there was nothing to criticize about this dinner.
But Emily had made a very sour face when they decided to stay at this hotel. She was originally the person in charge of the funds in Naoki's party. The quality and price of this hotel was so different from their usual lodging that she said it wasn't a place they should stay at. Jinrai chided her by saying「You've joined a higher ranking party, so there's no choice but to get used to it,」and she reluctantly agreed.\n
As a matter of fact, at the present time the White Party's highest ranking adventurer was only rank B, but judging from their recent accomplishments they were as active as a rank A or S party. There was no problem with their rank. Their income was also correspondingly high.
In addition, there was the matter with the horse thief in Crimiona City and the attempted pillage of the Rainbow Heart. Furthermore, Dolmu City was the Mecca of Dragon Steak. If someone were to hear about the Black Rock Dragon meat, they might try to steal some or try to coerce them into selling it. As long as they continued leaving behind achievements, such problems would continue to follow them, and security required money.
「Uu, I never thought money would fly away like this once I joined this party.」
Emily felt like she was doing something wrong as she looked at the lavish meal in front of her.
「Get used to it. You'll probably have a headache when you stay at the Cottage as well.」
While she was confused by Naoki's words, Emily timidly started to eat. By the way, Lyle was heartily eating while saying「Good! Sooo good!」without particularly caring about that situation. It could be considered a good expression of the difference in their personalities.
Jinrai had a hard time expressing exactly how he felt about this situation with his grandchildren, but he felt content as he watched them. Half a year ago, he never would have thought a person like him, who continued fighting without thinking about his family, would be travelling together with his grandchildren like this.
(

 but, it's not bad)
Jinrai thought. Although he was somewhat rejuvenated, he almost certainly had fewer remaining years than his grandchildren, or at least he should hope so. And he was thinking he should do as much as he could to make up for what he hadn't done up until now. In other words, a full measure of hellish special training was now decided. Was it because he imagined that his grandchildren might die before him?
「She said she was sending someone, but I wonder who it will be?」
After Yumika's question, Kazane tilted her head and said「Who knows?」
「I don't know if it will be someone we know or not; it could be a normal military researcher.」
Yumika replied「Is that so?」after Kazane's response.
「Certainly, it doesn't have to be an acquaintance.」
「That's right. AhăƒŒthat reminds me, Yuuko-nee had a troublesome story for me.」
「A troublesome story?」
Louise showed interest after those words. She loved troublesome stories. \n「Yeah. I met a Golem user from Tuure Kingdom at Blue Rifon Fort. Apparently Muscle Clay is considered a national treasure of the Tuure Kingdom.」
「Ah, if I remember right, that kingdom treats Golem magic as something sacred, right?」
「So I asked if there was any action concerning that, right?」
「And, and?」
「And it seems something like『There is suspicion that our country's secret technology was leaked, so we want to confirm the manufacturing method』came from Tuure.」
「Isn't that a lie?」
Yumika replied with a look of amazement. That came from Kazane's game knowledge.
「Well, that's right. So it seems Yuuko-nee replied『Then I want you to tell me your secret technology so I can check and add it to our secret technology』. Now she's waiting for their response.」
「It's like a children's quarrel.」
Naoki was also amazed.
「Well, when there aren't friendly relations, that's the way it is. It's a rather superior degree of harassment. Even if they correspond like adults, they only find fault with each other, so it ends up being a childlike correspondence.」
Scathing words flew from Louise.
「But smart guys diligently work behind the scenes while doing such stupid things, so you absolutely have to be careful.」
Louise advised. Kazane replied「I know.」
「Yuuko-nee also said to contact her immediately if anything happens. It seems she'll do something to more or less restrain them.」
「If it's that person, it should be fine.」\n\nOccupation: Magic Swordswoman
