Chapter 150: Chocolate Egg (Part 1)
The search for Amani Herbs continued.
Thanks to the dicine Michelle makes, Titti’s condition has apparently turned stable.
However, the side effects of the Spell Fusion haven’t been fundantally cured.
It seems that her physical condition has been good recently, as she went back to working as a healer, but she still can’t do without dicine in her daily life.
Michelle herself doesn’t know how long it will take for her to fully recover.
In addition to the students, the mbers of Team Harukaze also ca to the Royal Capital’s Dungeon today.
Of course, the students were told about the teleportation portal.
According to official records, rle and her team have co here through the land route.
[I’m sorry for troubling you as always. I’ll do my best today as well.]
Marco bowed apologetically.
[You don’t have to be so uptight. Let’s do our best and get a lot of Amani Herbs.]
I’m also grateful that Titti is working hard in Luganda as a healer.
It’s good to live by helping each other out.
When Gort intercepted the enemy’s attack, Kurtz and Kikka’s swords sliced through the monster’s torso.
The enemy was a Dungeon Maimai, a monster classified as a powerful monster on the 1st Underground Floor.
There were two Dungeon Maimais, but Carmine held the other one back with Earth Magic.
[You guys over there done yet? I’m almost at my limit here.]
[Ou, this one’s all taken care of. I’m on my way!]
Kurtz’ voice overlapped with Gort’s arrow.
The arrow, made more powerful by Kikka’s Wind Magic, pierced the shell of the Dungeon Maimai.
[This ends this!]
Kurtz’ sword strikes right into the monster’s head, and the Dungeon Maimai disappears in a puff of smoke.
[Kurtz and the others are getting stronger.]
There’s a world of difference compared to that ti when they just did their practicals.
Even from the perspective of an active adventurer like rle, it seems that their abilities are worthy of recognition.
[I think they’re good enough to go to the 2nd Underground Floor.]
[Is that true, rle-san?]
[Unnn, if you just make sure not to let your guard down, you guys should be fine. Shall we head on to the 2nd Underground Floor today?]
[I want to go!]
The four of them responded in unison.
[Is it gonna be alright?]
I was worried, but the four mbers of Team Harukaze gave their assurances.
[With their current equipnt and ability, they’ll be fine. Besides, we’re here with them.]
rle’s team isn’t just a bunch of rookies anymore.
Mira and Regal are the main hitter, while rle and Marco excel in attack and defense.
Team Harukaze is now the top team in Luganda.
[If that’s what you guys are saying, I’ll believe you. Let’s stop by the onsen on the way.]
Kurtz’ team cheered at my suggestion.
Subjugating monsters and collecting Amani Herbs, we made our way to the 2nd Underground Floor.
Kurtz and his team were undaunted on the 2nd Underground Floor, aggressively defeating monsters.
[The onsen is just up ahead. Once you enter the area, monsters will stop spawning, so you don’t have to worry.]
[We’re finally reaching the rumored Yahagi Onsen huh.]
Kurtz emotionally nods.
[I’ve never been to the onsen before.]
[ neither.]
It seems like reaching the onsen has beco so sort of first foal for dungeon rookies.
When the four of them arrived at the open plaza before the onsen, they looked around nervously.
[Amazing…… We’ve finally made it to the Yahagi Onsen.]
[Yeah, it feels like we’ve finally stepped into the entryway as adventurers.]
Kurtz and Gort joyfully cheered with their arms around each other’s shoulders.
[Let’s take a bath soon. I can’t wait anymore.]
[Sa here.]
Carmine and Kikka seed fidgety as they looked at the entrance of the onsen.
[I’ll show you around then. Co on in.
Mira leads them into the won’s bath.
Watching their backs as they departed, Kurtz muttered.
[How envious. They get to bathe with Mira-san……]
[I understand how you feel, but don’t you dare peek at them, okay?]
[I- I know that!]
anwhile, Kurtz and Gort were brought to the onsen by Marco and the other dudes.
I’d also like to have a bath myself, but that doesn’t seem possible.
[Yahagi-san, it’s been a while. I’m glad to see you here. I wanted to have an after-bath ramune.]
[Yahagi-san, the water pistol for massages is broken.]
With so many familiar faces around, it doesn’t seem like I’d have enough ti to have a leisurely soak in the onsen.
[Alright, I’ll open up my shop soon.]
It seed like things were going to be busy, but I was happy to see the face of my old friends happy.
The girls finally ca out of the bath.
It was rle who first spotted my new products.
She has always been a sucker for new things.
[What’s this? Chocolate Eggs?]
[As expected of rle. It’s actually a new product that just ca out.]
Product na: Chocolate Eggs (Familiars)
Description: Egg-shaped chocolate containing familiars. The person who opens it will be able to have the familiar inside under their employnt.
Price: 300 rims
[Familiars, well, doesn’t that sound like fun? Give ten!]
I admonished rle, who imdiately opted to go whaling.
[I’m saying this now, but it’s no use trying to get 10 familiars.]
[Why?]
[Each person can only have one familiar.]
The old familiar will disappear when you open a new one.
[The heck is with that? I thought of making things lively with a large number of familiars……]
[Don’t say that. In exchange for that limit, the familiars communicate with their masters and grow together with them.]
[Heehh…… I’ll go and buy one then.]
rle took out one of the many chocolate eggs.
[I feel like this one is calling out to . Now then, let’s see what’s gonna co up…….]
Everyone also seed curious too, peering at rle’s hand.
rle peels off the aluminum foil and the egg-shaped chocolate cos out.
[How do I do this……]
[There’s a trick to breaking a chocolate egg cleanly. Carmine, can you use your magic to cool the chocolate?]
Carmine is a prodigy of magic.
She isn’t good at lee combat, but she can use magic of all four major attributes and also has a deep knowledge of Dark Magic.
As soon as I asked her, she chilled the chocolate egg.
[Good, good, that’s cold enough. rle, see that vertical line on the egg?]
[Yeah, this one, right?]
[Right, right. You hold the top and bottom parts of the egg and slide them alternately along that vertical groove.]
When she did as I told her, there was a pleasant crack and the chocolate egg split in two.
Inside the chocolate egg is a red plastic capsule.
[It’s so small! Is that familiar really gonna be inside this?]
[They should be. Open it, and you’ll imdiately see.]
[Unnn……]
Gulping, rle carefully opened the capsule.
Out ca a small puppy.
[Uwahhh…… I- It’s so cute……]
A small Shiba Inu, smaller than even a mashiba, sat in the palm of rle’s hand.
It’s about the size of a stuffed toy you can get in a small crane ga.
It looks up at rle with dull eyes, before its lips ford into a smile.
It seed as if it was saying “Ehehe, please take care of ”.
[I’ve never seen a dog like this before.]
[It resembles an endemic species of dog from my hotown.]
[You were from a place called Japan, right?]
[Yeah. It’s like a dog called Shiba Inu.]
[Shiba Inu huh. In that case, I’ll na him Shiba.]
Perhaps having understood her words, when rle said this, Shiba wagged his curled tail.
[I see, Shiba likes his na too.]
[Wan!]
The capsule Shiba was in also contained a small explanation booklet.
Dog
Animal-type Familiar
Familiar with extrely high loyalty. Useful in hunting when grown up.
[I wonder if such a small guy can really help in hunting?]
[Perhaps, wouldn’t it grow bigger as you act together?]
[I see, then I’ll take Shiba with into the dungeon from now on.]
rle was fascinated by Shiba, gently stroking the Shiba on the palm of her hand with her fingertips.
Seeing this, the other mbers and children moved quickly.
[Yahagi-san, I’d like one of those chocolate eggs!]
[I’ll have one too!]
[ too!]
I had a feeling of a new hit product coming.
