Chapter 4 - 1 Underground Auction – Second advent of Lord

 Several days after being summoned by the lord, the city was celebrating the fact that the lord's illness had been cured.

As for me, I was enjoying the festival with everyone who had become slaves... but instead of spending time with the city's scariest people, I was sitting on the terrace having tea with them in an elegant manner.

To those who have a grudge against me for them, please don't come and attack me just today.


“Too bad. You failed to become a lord” (Itsuki)

“It's all right. You think I'm kinda like people who can be a lord. Unless one is a masochist, one can't go around working for the people.” (Darwin)

“Indeed. If you were working diligently for someone else, it would be so funny” (Itsuki)

“Huh. Nice try, kid. So, exactly how did you get it” (Darwin)

“I don't know” (Itsuki)


No matter what I explain of it, you won't believe the story that I happened to make an elixir.

And I have a bad feeling that something bad is going to happen if Darwin finds out about it.


“I'm interested in it too. But if you had it from the beginning, wouldn't it be strange to put it out at the time with Wendy?” (Yashisu)

“So, you can now make the elixir?” (Reinrich)

“I wouldn't say that, though. I'm just saying that there must be something special out there that we don't know about” (Yashisu)

“There is nothing to see here. Reinrich already checked my guild card. Do you want me to take a look at it again?” (Itsuki)

“Oh. Quite confident are you, kid. Let me see what you got” (Darwin)

“Okay, ok. Look, if there's nothing else, you should be convinced. <Guild card open>” (Itsuki)

“Hey, hey, hey, hey. What the hell. Wasn't space magic supposed to be a fragment of myth?” (Darwin)

“Ah......” (Itsuki)


Eh, damn. I was so distracted by the elixir that I forgot there was space magic!


“Well, well...? Is the skill of the "? ? ?" unique to the drifter? Maybe this has something to do with it?” (Yashisu)

“Not really. Unfortunately, this is an entirely different skill. <Pocket money>” (Itsuki)


Five gold coins suddenly fell from the sky and settled into my palm.


“Ha, five coins of each worth 100,000 Nord are falling out of the sky. So, how long will it take to get it back on?” (Yashisu)

“It's once a day. I wish I could use it more than once” (Itsuki)

“No, that's enough. Half a million a day, and that's still at level 3, right? I wonder how many gold coins you'll get when you reach Lv 9” (Yashisu)

“I'm curious about the origin......... Is it transferred from somewhere or is it created from nothing........” (Darwin)

“Forget about that, it's about the elixir. You guys seem to have forgotten the purpose” (Itsuki)

“Oh, that's right. Hmm. Oh, the alchemy level is already 9? That's quite fast” (Darwin)

“Huh, it took for me 10 years to reach that” (Reinrich)

“The drifter's growth rate is very fast. Even so, it's very fast” (Darwin)

“Isn't it because Reinrich was able to teach me effectively?” (Itsuki)

“If so, it's too early. Usually it's level 3 in one year, level 5 in two years, level 6 in three years, level 7 in six years, 8 in seven years, and 9 in ten years. It's because he's like this upon having talent like Rainrich-sama” (Reinrich)


Hmm. If that's the case, isn't level 9 in a few months rather than a year too fast?

This is strange. I didn't select the ability to increase my experience.


“There's no other skills that stand out more than that. Space magic ... I'd love to hear more about that too, but I don't think it has anything to do with elixir” (Darwin)

“Exactly! I've been wondering about that too!” (Oligor)


Bang! Then, the one who vigorously opened the door of the terrace was the Lord of the talk.

Beside her, Wendy was concerned about the glass door that had been opened in a rush.


“No, no, no, no. You shouldn't come to a place like this since the Lord's festival of reawakening is going on in town right now” (Darwin)

“What is it? Are you saying I'm bothering you, Onii-chan? We're so close to each other, it's horrible” (Oligor)

“Hey, you don't have to sit on my lap” (Itsuki)


Oh, come on.

Shiro's mouth is open in a square shape and shocked!

I'm telling you not to come over here because I have something important to talk about right now.


“You've come a long way, Masochist Lord” (Darwin)

“Don't call me a masochist lord. I just want all the people in this town to be happy” (Oligor)

“Yes, yes. So, I wonder why are you on his lap” (Darwin)

“That's because there is no seat for me. And I'm a little girl, so this seat is just fine for me. Oh, those sweets are delicious” (Oligor)

“You know, being lolicon is a disease” (Darwin)

“Wait a minute, she' s 4△ years old and still I am a lolicon?” (Itsuki)

“The problem is looks, whether she's 40 or 60, if she looks like a kid, then you're a lolicon” (Darwin)

“No way..... She's a lot older than me...” (Itsuki)

“Fufu. Do you have a pulse somewhere around not denying it? Onii-chan” (Oligor)


It feels weird to be called "Onii-chan" by an older woman.

But, well, if I didn't know her age, I wouldn't feel bad about it.

I do had a elder sister, but I didn't have a younger sister.

I can't tell how many times I've wished I had younger siblings.

If I didn't know her age, she'd be like a cute little sister....


Forty-something years old, sitting on my lap, holding one of my treats with both hands........


“Hmm? Do you want some, Onii-chan?” (Oligor)

“No, you can eat it” (Itsuki)

“Really? Yay” (Oligor)


Ah-Ahh. Don't let the candy scraps fall off.

It's all on my lap, you know.


“Oh, I just dropped it” (Oligor)

“No, you don't have to eat the ones you drop” (Itsuki)

“No, I can''t. If a person wastes food, they're going to lose their eyes” (Oligor)


That's what my grandma used to tell me!

Moreover, it's about rice.

Would you not poke me when you are on my lap?

I think groping is different!


“It's kind of like a good sibling relationship to me. As someone who's known Oligor for a long time, it's complicated” (Yashisu)

“Right” (Darwin)

“What. The four of you have known each other for a long time” (Itsuki)

“That's right! We used to get into mischief and Reinrich was always upset with us” (Yashisu)

“You guys were always mischievous kids” (Oligor)

“Besides, these guys are older than me and they're just running away from me. So, I set a trap at their feet and made me follow them” (Yashisu)

“I knew it was you all along!” (Darwin)

“Of course. There's no way I'm going to be allowed to blame everything on me and laugh at me from afar” (Yashisu)


Huh. These four guys have known each other for a long time.

I wonder what kind of mischief does Yashisu, Darwin and Oligor playing Reinrich.

Moreover, the opponent is, Reinrich, are they stupid?


“So, what are you doing here for?” (Darwin)

“Hmm? I only came over here because I saw everyone from over there, you know?” (Oligor)

“Really....” (Yashisu)


Oh, there's a butler outside the gate looking up at us.


“Wendy, take Butler-san in” (Itsuki)

“Oh, and tell him he can go home for the day. I'll be here for the rest of the day” (Oligor)

“Ah, I understand” (Wendy)

“No, this is your comeback celebration, right? I believe you got to go” (Itsuki)

“People just want to make some noise. The merchants just want to sell stuff in bulk for a reason and the folks just want an excuse to have a drink at noon” (Oligor)


You don't have to be so honest about the reality of the situation.

Even if it's only a formality, they still celebrate your comeback.


“And I drank too much. When I walked around town, I would run up to them and get drink again. I just got well, and this time I'll die from overdrinking” (Oligor)

“You don't look drunk enough for that” (Itsuki)

“Mm. I'm drunk. Look here, look, look” (Oligor)


She repeatedly bounces up and down on my knees, but it was painful when my leg muscles were stimulated in a sitting position.


“If you keep struggling, I'll put you down” (Itsuki)

“Eh...... Do you not like my ass?” (Oligor)

“No, it's just painful and...” (Itsuki)

“Hey, just because I'm tired of watching you guys flirt with each other, can we go back to that?” (Darwin)

“Oh, that's right, that's right. We got off track” (Oligor)

“Yeah, it's your fault. And what can space magic do?” (Darwin)


Dammit, he remembers.

Even though we've gone off topic for so long, you brought it back.

I quickly turn my palm upwards and offer it to Darwin.


“What meaning of that hand” (Darwin)

“How much are you gonna pay?” (Itsuki)

“Okay, let's sell this information to the Mage's Guild!” (Darwin)

“I'm sorry, I overstepped my bounds! Please, I beg you, I'll bow to you, but seriously, shut up” (Itsuki)


When I bowed my head, Oligor turned her mouth to me and waited for me, but I bowed my head several times while avoiding her.

Then Darwin held out his hand as I did.


“How ... how much it is. Say it” (Itsuki)

“I'm just kidding. Come on. I'll keep quiet so tell me about it” (Darwin)

“That's right. I'll give you the money so how about you talk to me and me alone?” (Yashisu)

“Hey, Yashisu, that's not fair” (Darwin)

“We get to hear about the magic of the legendary class? How could I not be interested? Oh, of course, I won't talk to Darwin-san” (Yashisu)

“No, it's fine. Yup, that's okay. Seriously, I would tell the Mage Guild if you could just keep quiet about it......” (Itsuki)

“I'm curious about that too” (Reinrich)


Even Rainrich got into it.

I thought you were silent but you were planning to casually listen in.

Dammit.


“Well, it's still level 3, so it's not a big deal” (Itsuki)

“It's fine so keep saying” (Darwin)

“Well, level one is a skill called <Inhalation (Input)>, which is, simply put, a replacement for the magic bag” (Itsuki)

“Hoh. How much capacity does it have?” (Yashisu)

“I wonder how much.... But it can store pretty much all in one place, so it's more than a magic bag (small) in one place. It's like it's divided into numbers 0-19” (Itsuki)

“That's nice. That's a skill that a merchant would want it to extent drooling over” (Darwin)

“Yeah. Especially if it's a peddler” (Yashisu)


Ah. Like, you don't have to put your stuff on the carriage, and you don't have to worry about thieves attacking you if you don't have a big load.

Should I become a merchant? I thought it was a good idea, but it's dangerous out there, so no.


“And then what? What about level 2?” (Darwin)

“It's a skill called <Discharge (output)>. This one is hard to explain, but well, can you understand it by the skill of being able to discharge with the force left when you put it with Input?” (Itsuki)

“Hmm. For example, if an arrow is shot at you, if you put it into the magic space with <inhalation (input)>, can you shoot back with the remaining force?” (Yashisu)

“I haven't tried it, but I think it's probably possible. I haven't used it much. I only thought it was just that the amount of magic space increased as the level went up” (Itsuki)

“Hey, I wonder what would happen if they did that with a flail or some other weapon that looked like it was chained together” (Darwin)

“I don't know. Maybe human bodies and other creatures can go in there too, unlike the magic bag, but I'm too scared to try it” (Itsuki)


I really don't know what's going to happen.

I wonder if only the tip will disappear.

Or will it be seen as the same item and store all inside.

Well, I'll give it a try when I get a chance.

I don't plan to try the creature, though, because I don't want the gross results.


“Somehow, the word "legend" doesn't sound quite right” (Darwin)

“I don't know if I can tell you that. It's a skill that I originally just wanted to use as a magic bag. I've been thinking that it would be nice to have some sort of teleportation, so I decided on this one” (Itsuki)

“Hmm. So, what's in level 3?” (Darwin)

“It's hard to explain this one too... hmmm” (Itsuki)


After troubling myself to think about it, I activate <Invisible Prison (Invisible Jail)> to make my teacup look like it's floating in the air


“What's that. Can you make things float?” (Yashisu)

“No, let's just say I create a transparent box. A prison, a coffin... a defensive wall?” (Itsuki)

“I don't know if you're saying me in a questioning way.... Anyway, I wonder if it's useful for defense, it's useful” (Yashisu)

“Right, by the way” (Darwin)


Carrying Oligor on my lap, and sitting on top of <Invisible Prison (Invisible Jail)>, she looks like she sat up in the air.


“It is possible to get on it” (Itsuki)

“Oh. This's kinda weird sensation” (Oligor)

“Be careful, Oligor. He's a pervert. He'll see your skirt from underneath” (Darwin)

“Hey, wait a minute. Since when did that happen” (Itsuki)

“Hey, wait a minute. You announced to your slaves that this wasn't the case. As I recall, you like” (Darwin)

“Hold on, Darwin. No more than that” (Itsuki)

“As expected of a customer........ I can't help but wonder if I should sell you more slaves” (Yashisu)

“It's okay.... I didn't do anything weird......” (Itsuki)

I didn't, did I?

Yeah. They don't mind. I'm sure they're fine.


“What? If you want to see what's in my skirt, you can tell me and I'll show you” (Oligor)

“Unfortunately, the scale is lacking. At least come back to me with big boobs” (Itsuki)

“Muukie! I think it's discrimination to say something about a lack of race!” (Oligor)

“You are a picky pervert” (Darwin)

“You are an advanced pervert” (Yashisu)

“You guys should not bully my disciple too much. I mean, what if people start talking about my apprentice as a pervert” (Reinrich)


Reinrich-sama!? You may have helped me, but you think I'm a pervert!


“Look, I think it's time for us to go home” (Yashisu)

“Yes, I do. I still have work to do” (Reinrich)

“It was about time for me to see the jeweler, too. Yeah, don't worry, I'll let Dharma know about the renovation” (Darwin)

“It's like nothing happened........ Damn. You're teasing me” (Itsuki)


Adults!

That's why the adults are!


“Oh, isn't Oligor going home?” (Itsuki)

“No, I haven't done with the original intent yet” (Oligor)

“You've come here for a reason......” (Itsuki)

“Eh, did you forget? You promised me to go into a private room alone with you” (Oligor)

“......” (Darwin) (Yashisu) (Reinrich)

“...calm down a little bit, don't you think?” (Itsuki)

“See you” (Darwin)

“I guess I should go home” (Reinrich)

“Excuse me. Take your time” (Yashisu)

“Wait, please don't go home! Hey, Loli, what the hell are you doing? Hey, talk to me! Listen to me!” (Itsuki)


At least let me explain that I'm not a lolicon!

I don't want to be left with the wrong idea!


“...don't you think it's rude to call people lolita. All right, I'll show off my charms in the privacy room” (Oligor)

“No, now is not the time to talk about that! Hey, you and your guy should explain it to them! Please, lord-sama!” (Itsuki)


Oh, wait, they're seriously leaving!

No, I didn't, I just thought she was really just a kid at that time!

I thought I just had to play with the kids. Ahuh Ahhhhh!


My soul's cry didn't get through, and the three of them left unceremoniously.
