Otoko Nara Ikkokuichijou no Aruji o Mezasa Nakya, ne? Chapter 154

Since Mila started from greetings I'll say it after I give my name as well.

"Ah, that is, as a matter of fact today we teleported from the 3rd floor. I heard the method from Lilus so I already know it."

After hearing my remarks Mila looked to the side at Miduchi and,

"For you to call Lilus-sama without honorifics.. I won't say anything to you, but do you approve of that?"

and she confirmed not with me but Miduchi. Come to think of it she was a {Demi-God}.

"There's a reason for it and her majesty has approved of him as well. There's no problem."

"Ho~ n!? For a {Demi-God} to have recognized you them self! Doesn't that make you quite the person! Let's see..Ho? N, you have two Unique Abilities I see..But I don't think it's to the point that Lilus would recognize over..Well it's fine though. Since you brought plenty of fish today as well. It doesn't particularly matter."

and said with a complacent smile on her face.

She should be the best choice from my party.

................

We spent almost an entire day and had them teach us quite a bit of magic. We took several short breaks along the way but each time we discussed it so that the details Mila and Karl teach us don't overlap. When I was taught the spell {Regenerate} by Mila, I had a bit of hopes that I could fix the cuts on Miduchi's face. Since Miduchi's magic special skill levels are low she can't learn any spells that are too advanced but even then there's a lot of spells that I don't know so it's extremely useful.

This time Miduchi focused on learning spells that require a comparatively low level of magic but are still useful like, {Find.Trap}, {Detect.Snare}, {Perceive.Pitfall}, {Detect.Charm}, {Detect.Lie}, {Detect Life}, {Dispel.Illusion}, and {Dispel.Magic}.

I focused around learning magics that require a comparatively high level of magic skill levels like {Recovery}, Metal Glassification {Glass Steel}, {Suggestion}, {Charm.Person}, {Charm.Plants}, Disgust {Repulsion}, {Mass.Invisibility}, and Stupefaction {Fever.Mind}.

I stopped Miduchi several times along the way before she ran out of mana but I went without breaks. Incidentally just in case I tried confirming if there was a spell like {Identification}, but she hadn't heard of it. I somehow had predicted it but after all it seems impossible to reproduce Unique Abilities with spells, even if it's possible there's no mistake it's considerably difficult. That's great.

We were also saved by the fact that Karl gets right to the point when Mila is around. Honestly speaking, if Karl was on his usual rhythm I think the number of spells Miduchi learned to use wouldn't even have been half of what she did. As a matter of fact I had prepared myself for that. Since it was a pleasant miscalculation that I was able to talk normally with Mila as well my prejudice of the fairy race has just changed to prejudice of Karl him self.

"Fu~ I'm tired for doing things seriously for the first time in a while.."

Mila grumbled a bit while sighting but I really feel like lowering my head to her. I didn't think that she would really use this many different spell in front of me. After all the only thanks I brought was dried fish. Something like the good luck of being taught spells just for bringing along dried fish, it almost never happens. Not to mention I'm having her use the spells on me so it's big that I can actually feel the effects of them.

"Mila-san. Thank you very much. I'm grateful from the bottom of my heart."

I lowered my head while feeling it was only natural and said my thanks.

"Hn? It doesn't particularly matter. Since I haven't seen a person's face other than the fairy race these past 100 years or so. Furthermore if that's a big-shot that can call a {Demi-God}-sama without honorifics then there's no way I can't at least listen to their request for a day or so. In the first place, the one that came previously..What did they say it was again..compared to that one human male, you have almost nothing at all and seemed like you'd have quite a bit of trouble. Putting it frankly it's close to pity."

I was pitied...Though that's fine.

"In the first place unless it's someone with a firm sense of objective then this isn't a place that is so easy to come. It's not as if there's no possibility at all of wandering in here jsut by chance but since it's something like once in countless decades it's almost fine to say it's impossible. Even if it was someone who just wandered in then they'll probably try to harm us as well. The moment they try to execute it we all swarm and kill them though. As long as they're willing to bring some gifts along from the second time on then it's fine to do a bit of something."

Thank god I only thought it..I was about to die there.

"Ooooo~!! I see now!!'

Miduchi let out a deeply impressed and surprised voice as if she understood. What is it, really~

Don't joke around with me now!!

If you treat them preciously then they'll last a number of years.

Furthermore you even crushed them under the heel!

"Hey now..you.."

I'm sure that right now a vein is sticking on my temple and the capillaries in my eyes have burst.

What used to be a boot flew from Miduchi's legs and landed with a po~n, before falling over on the ground.

Ah?

Eh? It rains? Here.

"So that just now was the spell {Predict.Weather}..She used that with the incantation just now."

Mila explained it for me. After all that was a spell? Moreover {Predict.Weather} you say? I reflexively looked up at the ceiling. There's a shining stone ceiling about 100m above. Is the rain that's going to fall from there not well water?

"Hey..you.."

"No~ since it wasn't going well I tried investigating the incantation and~ laughed..What are you angry over?"

"Those boots..are huh?"

If I look closely they look similar but they're different. Ah, those are the cheap ones that she was originally wearing..I'm relieved.

"Ah, these? Karl taught me it. It seems it's best to use something as a catalyst when using the spell {Predict.Weather}. It seems normally you use something like a bonfire or a grass boat floating on water but it was too difficult for me to get the image of predicting the weather based on the way the grass boat sinks so I ended up cutting my previous boots. It's not like I have any wooden clogs after all."

"What? What are you saying? What language is that?"

Hohou~ so that's how it was. This old man was done in good by that one. Ah, let's just ignore the winged insect. But, why did she bring along her old boots?

"No, umm. Since we went to the trouble of making some new boots, I thought of debuting them when we're all entering the dungeon together.."

So the ones she didn't wear this time were the new ones. Sorry for misunderstanding.

After that, I remembered I had one thing I wanted to try asking Mila about.

"Mila-san. Do you know any spells that can be used to process dirt or rocks and take out the metals?"

"Hn? There's one called {Transmute.Rock.To.Mud} but can't you use the lower rank magic of that? Don't you know {Quagmire}?"

"I know that one. However, {Quagmire} is a magic that can only change a portion of the ground to mud?"

It was a bit strange.

"Umu, since {Quagmire} is a spell that was made by restricting the functionality and simplifying {Transmute.Rock.To.Mad} after all. If it's {Transmute.Rock.To.Mud} then there's no restriction that you can only turn the ground into mud. You can change rocks and ores into mud as well. It's fine if you just change rock or dirt with a lot of metal minerals included in it to mud. Since it also includes water created with water magic inside of it, if you use the void magic selection to sort the water out at the same time you can easily crystallize single metals and take them out. If you use transformation at the same time then you can freely take it out the shape you want as well."

That's it!

"Oh~ is that so. Then would you please teach me that spell {Transmute.Rock.To.Mad}!"

I asked with the momentum of doing a dogeza. If you say it's necessary it's even fine if I give you one arm or leg. I've already learned {Regenerate} after all.

"I don't mind teaching it to you but.."

"Ha"

"It's already impossible today. My mana won't last. We'll do it next time."

"..I understand. Definitely next time...I'll bring along a lot of even better fish."

It was so disappointing that I couldn't help it. There's no way I can force her after all.

Mila looked at me like that with a lonely face.

"Everyone says that but what number is Al that's actually made it here multiple times...There's only been a single handful of them up until now. I'll wait without holding my hopes up."

"It's fine for you to hold your hopes high. I'll definitely come again."

I grinned with a smile while saying.

"Hmph, do as you please.."

I felt like Mila smiled back behind her long hair.

I left behind the remaining fish and magic stones and then Miduchi and returned to the town of Baldukk in the middle of the night. We vacated out of our temporary inn and returned to "Boil Manor". After one more day of slow rest, we're entering the dungeon again. Just watch, I'll show you we can clear the 6th floor this month.

Authors Note: (Translator: some notes on the difference between {Charm.Person} and Kuro's {Charm},  the spell {Detect.Charm} can't detect Kuro's {Charm} only the spell {Charm.Person} or similar spells. Also Kuro's {Charm} makes them listen to whatever he says but {Charm.Person} only gives the target a good impression like turning them in the level of good friends. They'll still reject things if you say something unreasonable, not to mention the duration is super short.)
