That day was different from usual.
When the clock struck nine in the morning, Tatsuro finally woke up.
However, the sun, which should have been up by now, was nowhere to be seen, and there was a large moon in the sky.
(Is this what you call a polar night ……)
As the consciousness finally became clearer, he remembered that today was the weekend light day.
And since he knows that this is a normal day in this world and not an abnormal one, he wakes up Ai with his life magic without any fuss.
“…..hhmm…mm? It’s still night. ……gguu”
”Don’t ‘guu’ on me. Wake up, Ai, today is the day the sun doesn’t rise.”
”Eh~that can’t be ………… true.”
So she finally remembered the otherworldly situation and slowly raised her body.
“Good morning, Tatsuro”
”Good morning, Ai.” Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novel✦fire.net
So, with a wake-up call and a light kiss, they began their activities.
”First of all, we have to make a reservation at the expensive inn, right?”
”Yes. Then we’ll do some shopping and go to the lake.”
”Are we going to the lake on foot? Or are you going in that flying thing?”
When Ai looked up at him with a somewhat expectant gaze, Tatsuro smiled and said it was easy to understand.
”We’re going to do that from the middle point on.”
”From the middle? Why can’t we start from the beginning?”
”It’s not that we can’t, it’s just that our first priority is to secure the SP.
Lately, I have not been able to use the Level Eater because we have been under the scrutiny of people on escort missions, and I want to earn some money along the way.”
”That being said, SP earning has been a bit sluggish lately. If we fly, we might not run into any demons, so let’s do at the middle.”
Ai seemed to be convinced, so when Tatsuro was about to get out his clothes for the day, Ai asked him to wait.
”Instead of that, wear those expensive clothes I picked out for you.”
”We’re not staying here today, but we’re going to a fancy inn.
It would be unpleasant if you dressed like an ordinary adventurer and were not taken seriously.”
”Oh. I wonder if that ever happens.”
”Even if they don’t, there’s no harm in wearing it.”
Tatsuro thought, but she had a point. He picked up an expensive outfit that looked like something a young aristocrat would wear, not something he had worn recently, and changed into it.
Ai also wore a gorgeous embroidered one-piece dress, as she had declared, and she could have been described as a young lady of some kind.
”How do I look, Tatsuro?”
”No, …… How to say… it’s beautiful.”
”I-Is that so? Fufu -Tatsuro’s cool too!”
Thanks to the fact that both of them had a good appearance, they were able to wear any kind of clothes, but this one was an unusual fit.
To the casual observer, they could have been mistaken for noblemen or similarly high-ranking individuals.
”I’m done getting dressed and packing. Let’s go.”
So they went downstairs in their clothes, had breakfast while the innkeeper and his wife rolled their eyes as they returned the key, and went out into the moonlit town in high spirits.
”It’s strange that it’s morning and the moon is out.”
”That’s right. It’s a phenomenon that would never happen in Japan.”
Then, they stepped into a secluded area on the opposite side of the main gate, which they had never been to before.
Tatsuro could see that the houses lined up one after another and the people passing by were dressed in a higher grade of clothing.
{“There’s a lot of mansions around here.”}
{“I guess it’s a high-end residential area.”}
{“If I could travel back and forth between Japan and this world, I’d like to sell off some more of my golden crystals and build a mansion somewhere and live in comfort.”}
{“That sounds like fun too.”}
It was not the kind of place to talk aloud, so the two of them turned right at the end of the road, talking in telepathy and envisioning a comfortable life together.
At the end of the road, three high-class lodgings appeared in an area as large as the mansions they had seen so far.
”It’s huge! This is very promising.”
After checking once more to make sure that the information he had received from Leela was correct, Tatsuro spoke to the two men in armor standing in front of the gate of the mansion.
”I’d like to make a reservation at the inn here, where should I go?”
”–Eh? Oh reservations huh?”
If that’s the case, you’ll find the reception desk in the building over there, just to the right of here.”
”I understand. Shall we go?”
The man in the armor tilted his head as he watched the two walk away.
This is because he felt that it would be strange for them to go to the trouble of making a reservation themselves, when they could leave it to their servants. ……
Tatsuro and Ai walked into the reception building without noticing anything in particular.
When they entered, they were greeted by a fluffy carpeted floor, and soon the woman standing at the reception desk came neatly towards them.
“Customer, may I help you with something?”
”Yes, I’d like to make a reservation for a room, is that possible here?”
“Reservation? Yes, we accept reservations here.
I’ll be with you in a moment. Please relax on the sofa over there.”
After being told that, they sat down on the plush sofa as the woman urged and waited, and the woman who had just arrived arrived really quickly.
After showing their IDs, they were asked a number of questions, such as how many days and for how long they would be staying, when they would be eating, if there was anything they couldn’t eat, if they would need to make their beds, etc. After patiently answering all these questions, they finally succeeded in getting a reservation.
For the time being, they decided on seven days and six nights, from the day after tomorrow, the day of fire, to the day of thunder, when the fur processing would be finished, and then to the day of ice, with more time to spare.
The price was 350,000 Sis per room per night, a price they would never have been able to afford in Japan, but they were sure to receive the rest of the money from the sale of the golden crystal the day after tomorrow, so there was no problem at all.
”The day after tomorrow, on April 2nd, if you bring this plate to me, I will give you the key, so please don’t lose it.”
”I understand.” {“The day after tomorrow is April 2nd, which means today is the last day of the month, March 24th.”}
{“It’s March here, how weird is that? That means that the day we came to this world–“}
{“In this world, March 18th, the day of the tree.”}
The two of them, who had unexpectedly gotten the information about the date, talked about it in telepathy and left the place with the receptionist seeing them off.
They then went into the department store to get what they needed, and then headed for the Adventurer’s Guild.
If there was a request they could handle on the way to Lentetius Salt Lake, they would take it.
They held up their guild cards to the white plaque hanging on the wall near the entrance to see if there were any good requests.
”Oh, there’s a good one.”
”The sixth one from the top and the eighth one.”
”Uh, this one, I think.
What’s that …… Defeat at least five demons that appear along the roads around the town, this can be any kind of demon.
And another one is…… a bag of sasara grass that grows around the lake.
Yeah, I think we can do both of these while we’re at it.”
”Right, let’s get on with it.”
So the both of them took the request forms one by one, converted them from the system and took them to the reception desk. Leela was not there, so they left the Adventurer’s Guild to have someone else accept them.
Then they went to the square where there were many food stalls to satisfy their hunger, although they couldn’t tell from the appearance of the surroundings, because the clock was pointing to noon.
At last, they left the town.
”It took us longer than expected.”
”I guess so. So let’s get cracking!”
So they walked along the cobblestones and got a total of (17) SP from the three Immomu’s they found along the way before defeating them.
And after walking for a while, hoping to kill two more, six more of the same demons appeared.
It was a strange creature, one meter in size, with large, narrow eyes, a red mouth that looked like it was smiling in the shape of a crescent moon, and a square head with five octopus legs without suckers.
All at once, the creature made a high-pitched screeching sound as it slithered toward them, its five legs sliding across the ground like a snake.
”There’s something strange again!”
”It looks like a Martian character, doesn’t it?”
While saying these things to each other, they prepare to intercept.
First of all, Tatsuro took out his wand and used a mixture of wind and fire magic to create three two-meter high tornadoes of flames that hit the Martians and scorched them.
In the meantime, Ai held her greatsword and spear to the right and left in preparation for close combat.
””””””IIEE IEE IEEE “”””””
”They are m*******t?”
”What an uneducational demon! Do not listen to Ai.”
”EEEH!? How old am I in Tatsuro’s mind?”
It sounded like it wanted to be scorched by a tornado of fire, and Tatsuro shuddered to think that some demons had that kind of taste… but needless to say, it was just that kind of cry.
”In any case, if we defeat that thing, we can accomplish one request. Let’s keep our eyes open.”
“Un I can smell some kind of squid. I wonder if I can eat them.
”If you eat them, you will get hurt, so don’t.”
”Am I a little girl!”
In spite of her complaints, Ai approached the charred Martian (temporary), then instantly clothed her greatsword with energy and cleaved it in a horizontal line.
《Skill: Swordsmanship Lv. 3 has been acquired》
The two creatures fell down with their heads cut off from their legs, screaming with delight.
That was all well and good, but the problem came after that.
The moment the demons were defeated, the greatsword in Ai’s hand was cracked in a mesh-like pattern and fell to pieces.
The Martian (temporary) tried to attack Ai while she was surprised by it. However, they were immediately pierced by the spear in Ai’s left hand and killed at the same time.
《Skill: Spear Technique Lv.4》.
When Tatsuro saw the two spears piercing the ground at the same time, he knew that he would be wiped out before he could use the Level Eater, so he began to focus on the enemy in front of him.
”Ai, please step back for a moment.”
Once she was back, he manipulated three tornadoes of flame to surround the remaining two.
If they tried to escape through the gap, he would move the tornadoes to block them, and succeeded in sewing them in place.
Next, Tatsuro activates his “Level Eater” and hits one of the captured creatures with the black ball.
Skills: 《Swallow Lv.3》, 《Increase Tentacle Strength Lv.1》, 《Slime Lv. 4》
( Slime is the highest level. …… )
He realized that he was a demon that liked to play in a special way, and although he didn’t want to use it as his food, he told himself that he was taking it to go home.
Skills：《Swallow Lv.0》《Increase Tentacle Strength Lv. 0》《Slime Lv. 0》
（Okay, next monster.)
Skills：《Swallow Lv.1》《Increase Tentacle Strength Lv.1》《Slime Lv. 6》
(So why is Slime the highest?!
Moreover, this guy has only one more Lv. 1 than the other, why are you so high level!
Are you stupid, hey are you stupid!?)
Skills：《Swallow Lv.0》《Increase Tentacle Strength Lv.0》《Slime Lv. 0》
After enduring the mental attack in this way, Tatsuro gained SP (40) here.
