Chapter 143: Magical Whistle Candy
I went out to the dungeon early in the morning and took the teleportation portal to Luganda.
This has beco my routine these days.
I receive reports from the aide Nakaram-san, replenish the goods in the shop, have a chat with the town’s inhabitants, and then return ho.
Today I was going to do the sa and return to the Royal Capital, when rle and Mira approached.
[How unusual, are you off work?]
[Unnn, I have a favor to ask you, Yuusuke-san.]
rle brought her mouth to my ear.
[Can we use the teleportation portal? We want to visit our parents’ house for the first ti in a while.]
I’ve told the existence of the portal to rle and a few other people whom I trust.
From what I heard, rle and Mira wanted to give the money they earned to their parents.
The postal system in this world isn’t reliable, so it’s safer to give it to them directly.
Both of them are my oldest friends in this world, and they were my comrades who joined in the war without even considering the danger to their lives.
At that ti, Michelle, rle, Mira, Regal, and Garm directly volunteered to help ……
I was so happy that I cried.
Marco had been exiled, but he said he would go with even if he was arrested.
Well, it was a blessing in disguise that he was officially allowed to participate in the war, and that his military rits allowed him to erase his past cris.
As thanks, I gave Pri Minister Essel, who was helping out behind the scenes, a new type of Mani 4WD.
And so, it was no big deal for to bring rle and Mira to the Royal Capital.
[Alright. If that’s the case, let’s leave right away.]
[While we’re at it, show us your mansion in the Royal Capital.]
[Mansion? I just have my usual stand-alone house over there though.]
[Huh? Yuusuke-san is already a Count. Why is your house so shabby?]
[Oi, don’t call my place shabby, that’s just rude. Besides, it’s just the right size for .]
[Ehhh, here I thought I’m gonna see a gorgeous room.]
[Now, now, that’s just like Yuusuke-san, isn’t it?]
With Mira diating on this matter, we set out together.
When I ca back from the Royal Capital’s Dungeon, I saw a bunch of kids hanging out in the storefront even though it was still early afternoon.
Thinking about it again, today’s a rest day for school.
I guess so children with free ti on their hands had co to check if the store was open yet.
[Ah, Yahagi-san is back!]
Kurtz, a regular custor, was the first to spot .
[Hey, Kurtz. Yesterday was your first day of practicals, wasn’t it? How did it go?]
[Well, we sohow managed. Thanks to the dagashi, we got through a lot of situations.]
Kurtz also defeated a Sli and a Giant Spider.
Neither of those is a strong monster, but it doesn’t change the fact that facing them is dangerous.
I could see a sense of confidence in the faces of Kurtz’s group after completing their first battle.
[By the way, Yahagi-san, who are these people? Are they Yahagi-san’s girlfriends?]
At those words, , rle, and Mira imdiately turned pale.
[Don’t thoughtlessly say things like that!]
[Do you want to die!?]
[Do you not care even if the Royal Capital gets blown up!?]
[All three of you are vehently denying it!? Why do you press on this matter that much?]
rle explained with a serious expression on her face.
[What do you think will happen if Michelle-san hears about this?]
[Ah, that’s right, the Curse Witch lives here!]
It seems that the information that Michelle lives here is slowly spreading among the children.
[I already have Michelle, so there’s no way these two are my girlfriends. rle and Mira are active adventurers and regulars of Dagashi Yahagi.]
[In other words, they’re our Senpais. We are in your care!]
Hearing they’re adventurers must have made them feel a sense of camaraderie.
Kurtz’s group bowed their heads.
[By the way, what’s the matter? Did you all co here to buy so snacks?]
Kurtz wagged his finger at that.
[That’s not it, Yahagi-san. We’re here to prepare for our exploration.]
[Exploration, your practicals should have ended already, right?]
[Hehehe, look at this!]
Kurtz, Gort, and Kikka all held up a small tal plate in front of .
[What’s that? Adventurer Academy Proficiency Assessnt Certificate: D Rank: Up to 1st Underground Floor.]
[It’s a certificate of academic excellence! With this, we can go into the dungeon.]
People don’t really need permission from the governnt to enter the dungeon.
This seems to be so kind of guideline that the school gives to its students.
[There are only a few groups in the sa grade that got this. We’re among the few who acquired it.]
[That’s great. And now, you’re preparing for your next exploration?]
[Rather than next exploration, we’re actually about to head out after this.]
[You’re going to the dungeon after this?]
Kurtz’s group was apparently heading to the dungeon to train and get so extra money.
[S- Senpai! What kind of snacks does Senpai buy?]
Kurtz asked Mira.
He looked like he just mustered the courage to talk with the beautiful lady he’s crushing on next door.
[What would I buy? Let’s see…… If you’re hunting on the 1st Underground Floor, I’d say the basic snacks like 10-rim gum…… and then, so magical whistle candy.]
[Magic Whistle Candy?]
Product na: Magic Whistle Candy
Description: A candy with a hole in the center. When one puts it to their mouth and blows on it, it makes a sound that lures monsters. Cos with a free toy.
Price: 60 rims
[Heehhh…… So this kind of dagashi exists huh.]
[It’s very useful in the 1st Underground Floor because there are only a few monsters there.]
Its maximum effective range is about 200 ters, so it’s quite convenient.
[However, if you’re not careful, you can get surrounded.]
[I see.]
[Other than that though, not only can it be used to call monsters, but also to lure them into traps.]
It would be beneficial for Kurtz’s group to hear advice directly from an active adventurer.
The three were listening intently to Mira and rle’s advice.
Looking at them like this, Mira and rle sure have grown.
[By the way, what will happen if we blow the magical whistle candy here? Will the monsters co out of the dungeon.]
[As expected, there’s no way that’s gonna happen. Not like I’ve tried it before though.]
[Then, I’ll give it a try.]
Kurtz quickly popped the magical whistle candy he had purchased into his mouth and blew in it.
Thereupon, the door in the back opened.
[Yuusuke, you called?]
It was Michelle who ca out.
[Ugyehh, the Curse Witch!?]
Oi! Ah, no, that’s certainly her title but……
Well, Kurtz and the others are quite scared of Michelle, who has left behind many legends.
Even though she was so cute……
[This is bad…… I just blew it a bit and the Last Boss appeared. If I use sothing like this in the dungeon……]
Seeing Kurtz’s group trembling from fright, rle cald them down.
[Don’t worry, there’s nothing as dreadful as her in the dungeon.]
Seems like rle’s got the sa opinion as them.
[What about ?]
Michelle looked around.
[It’s nothing. I was just explaining to everyone again that Michelle is my fiancee.]
Michelle imdiately smiled.
[Is that so? Everyone please take your ti and enjoy your shopping. I’m going to go back to making lunch. rle and Mira, you co eat with us too.]
Humming a tune, Michelle withdrew to the back.
[Fuuu…… The world’s equilibrium has been saved yet again……]
You’re overreacting, rle.
Anyhow, paying close attention to the back of my ho, Kurtz and the others quickly finished their shopping.
[We’re off to the dungeon then!]
[Don’t let your guard down over there, okay?]
[We know that!]
Gort and Kikka nodded to us.
[Don’t worry, we know what we should do.]
[I’m with them, so I won’t let them do anything dangerous.]
Kurtz is bold, Gort is calm, and Kikka is cautious, the three of them make a balanced combination.
[Be careful.]
I walked them off to the storefront.
