《The Start of Elixir Hunting》
Now then, will there be a natural elixir here just like what Mr. World Eye said?
I might had passed by it when I was taking a stroll.
“Does Sorglos’ master (ご主人) know about this forest?”
I nodded to Lucille’s question.
Well, yeah. It’s a forest where I sometimes go while taking a break from paperwork.
I used to be completely secluded at the guild, but since the incident with Laladi, I’ve been able to go out occasionally, though not often.
Huh…? I feel like I don’t have that much freedom…or is it just my imagination?
That’s right. This forest is the same location as the flower bed where Laladi and I used for walking exercise.
Are the orc corpses that were killed by Yuuto and the others still lying around?
Let’s not pass through there.
Well, enough of that…. Hey, Lucille. Why are you calling me Sorglos’ master?
Isn’t it fine to just call me Master (マスター)?
(TN: Lucille said Sorglos’ ‘Master’ (ご主人) which can also be translated to ‘Husband’)
“Eh? I mean, you haven’t told me your name…. I was thinking of calling you Master like Sorglos does, but for me, my Master is Apollo. Not to mention, Sorglos calls you “Aruji-sama (Master)” too, so that’s why.”
“Lucille……! I’m surprised you can say something adorable…!!!”
“Uwah! Don’t hug me!”
In front of me, Apollo hugged Lucille with tears in his eyes.
Lucille was twisting his body in disgust, but he doesn’t seem to be able to escape the grasp.
I’m glad to see that they are on good terms.
…no wait, leaving that aside, we’re still talking about my nickname.
How should I say… Isn’t that the kind of name that other people shouldn’t hear?
Besides, it would be disrespectful to Sorglos, too….
“No no, in my opinion, this is fine. Rather, it’s perfect! (It’s nice to once again feel that I’m Master’s property!)”
Although I could only see her eyes due to her ninja costume, Sorglos seemed to have a nice smile on her face.
I-Is that so? Normal people usually wouldn’t like that, though….
Well, if Sorglos herself is okay with it, then I guess it’s fine….
“Nevertheless, Sorglos’ master knows this forest, huh? Then, I guess you can show us the way.”
Saying so, Apollo then put his hand on my shoulder-…, and Sorglos slapped it away.
Eeh…?
Apollo blinked in surprise… Aaah! I see! So, Sorglos is just more patient than the rest of the girls!
It would be a shame if something like this broke the good vibe we’ve been working on together.
I hastily squeeze out a few words.
I don’t mind showing you around, but I don’t know where the elixir is.
And since I don’t visit here that often, I’m sure there are still many places that I don’t know.
“I see….”
Heroro let out a sigh of his genuine disappointment. Forgive me.
“No no, there’s nothing for you to worry about, Master. It’s Heroro-dono’s fault who suddenly let out a sigh.”
“What did you say!?”
“No, this time is your fault, Heroro.”
“Yup.”
“Ugh….”
Sorglos, who naturally read my mind, slid in close to comfort me.
Heroro was offended by her words, but he was also told by his fellow guild members, which made him go silent.
Haha…somehow, the atmosphere is getting a bit bad, isn’t it…?
But thank you, Sorglos.
“Now then, how about we focus on places that Sorglos-san’s master doesn’t know about?”
“I was thinking the same thing!”
“Mufufu~….”
Lucille cheerfully raised his hand in response to Rieg’s suggestion.
By the way, the last one was Sorglos’ voice who is being patted on the head by me.
Lucille said so, but…is that true?
Leaving aside the credibility of his words for now…, I thought Rieg’s suggestion was very rational.
I have yet to see anything that looks like an elixir in this forest until now.
That means, it exists in an untouched area instead on my usual walking route.
Though, it’s just a story…that is, if I believe Mr. World Eye’s information.
“Alright! Let’s find the elixir quickly.”
Saying so, Lucille plunged off into the forest alone.
Will he be okay?
“Haha! You guys may not know it, but that guy is surprisingly good even though he looks like a brat, you know?”
Apollo proudly brags about Lucille, but….
Let’s try being malicious for a bit.
All of you may not know it, but orcs had appeared here before. More than one, even.
It won’t be a big deal if it’s just one orc, but wouldn’t it be a bit troublesome if it’s more than one?
Also, there were ogres appeared near this forest, you see? There were several of them, too.
They’re not natural disasters like dragons, but I think they’re pretty powerful.
If he came across one by himself, will he be able to handle it?
And to add to that, didn’t all of you ask us to explore this place because it’s a difficult place to explore on your own?
Is it possible, that you don’t need us?
When I told them so, Apollo and the others’ faces instantly turned blue.
“Wait a minute, Lucille! This place is extremely dangerous!”
“Well, I don’t think there’s really a need to panic that much if it’s just orcs and ogres, though….”
“Please don’t lump us in with you guys! Let alone ogres, orcs are also categorized as a quite powerful monster!”
Sorglos and me looked at each other and tilted our heads after Rieg’s remarks.
That’s a lie.
I understand if it’s ogres, but orcs…?
I mean, it’s a monster that I can even take down.
Compared to Sorglos, who can actively fight them, I still look a lot weaker than her.
They hurriedly chased after Lucille, who had left us and gone into the forest ahead of everyone.
We were left alone, me and Sorglos.
“Ooh, this is an unexpected opportunity. I’m alone with Master…in the dark forest, a man and a kunoichi….”
Nothing is going to happen, okay?
I clearly said so to Sorglos, who was looking up at me with a very expectant look in her eyes.
There’s no way I’m going to touch the girls that I treat as my daughters.
I’ve already extinguished my libido beforehand so there’s no problem at all.
Now then, let’s also start finding the natural elixir for Lucica.
“Muu…roger. (It’s a relief that he’s impregnable even for the other bitches as well, but…. Should I prepare a powerful aphrodisiac in time? No, I still have time. There’s a chance that we might not be able to find the elixir today. Rather, I don’t want it to be found. Because if we do, I’ll be relieved from my current position and have to return to “Yelquchira” HQ. That’s why, I will enjoy this blissful moment that I rarely have!)”
I could only watch in wonder at Sorglos who was looking down and mumbling something.
