“Amazing! This should be enough to feed the entire Angel Race for a whole day!”
Milina, who was apparently in charge of the library reception back in the village and held a position similar to the Adventurer Guild here, was surprised as she worked with the fifty or so angels she had brought along, dismantling the meal on the potato field.
“Milina, will this be enough?”
“For one day, it will be.”
“No, I was asking about manpower.”
“Leave the speed and efficiency to us! But we’d be happy if you could help.”
“Then I’ll use my summoned creatures… Anju, continue with Iwamoto. Helen, handle the succubi.”
Ah, she looked this way!
“Deles, what are you doing?”
“Uh, I’m teaching Iwamoto the nicknames of each succubus.”
“Hmm, indeed, just shouting out their attributes was enough this time, but that is a necessary task.”
(I can’t say it… I absolutely can’t say I was just doing it to kill time!!)
“Iwamoto, did you remember?”
“Yes, sir. We have Bani-chan, Shiranui-chan, En-chan, Jin-chan;”
“Poi-chan, Gotchan, El-chan or Dora-chan, and finally, the newly evolved Daku-chan.”
The succubi nodded in agreement.
“Iwamoto, can you transport the meat?”
“If you would just carve it.”
“The succubi will cooperate with the angels to cut and extract the materials.”
This is how we’re doing a task that should normally be left to the Adventurer Guild. It’s surprising how enthusiastic the angels are. Is it because it’s their food? Or did we even negotiate that? They’d be disappointed if they knew I was taking all the meat.
(Besides, I’m just watching with Clarice and Nastasia!)
“Deles, what will you do?”
“Uh, Clarice…”
“Someone needs to be here in case of an accident during the work. I wouldn’t feel safe with just the Goddess Succubus.”
Yeah, Gotchan might get crushed by the fallen meat.
“Then Nastasia… Hmm, why don’t you and I go see Deles’s family home?”
“Huh? Is that okay?”
“Just a brief visit. Deles is still hiding inside me, after all.”
“W-wait a minute, of all days…”
“Deles, is there a problem?”
Of all the days, today is, no, it’s definitely…
“Today is, uh, Ric’s birthday.”
“What! Then she might be back.”
“I don’t know about that, but the very act of me returning to my family home on her birthday…”
Yeah, even if I don’t meet her, if someone from my family finds out…
“You mean the messaging?”
“Yes. Even if I’m not found, if Nina or Nastasia are seen, and then later we go to pay our respects, the fact that I investigated my family home on Ric’s birthday…”
It feels like I might be overthinking it.
“…Very well. This is a matter of Deles’s feelings. Nastasia.”
“Yes!”
“As the leader, I will go and speak to the various Adventurer Guilds in the Empire about recent matters. However, I would like Nastasia, who was also a Hero for the Empire, to accompany me. Will you come?”
Ah, Nastasia looked at me!
“There will be future discussions, so please go.”
“Um, Master Deles–”
“I don’t want to stand out too much.”
“Hmm, that was the promise from the start. Nastasia, remember that too.”
“…Understood.”
If that’s the case, I’ll be the only one with free time.
“Deles, you will wait in the Angel Race village. Rest in the Chief’s bedroom.”
“Eh? Is that okay?!”
“Of course. If you’d like, you can even relax in the hot springs.”
Just as I was wondering if it was okay, Anju and Iwamoto arrived.
“We’ll send you! Here we go!”
With teleportation, I was instantly in the bedroom.
It’s a reasonable distance, but it seems I could have gone even without a Teleport Scroll.
“Good niiight!”
With that mysterious phrase, they disappeared with Iwamoto.
They must have returned to the work site. Alright, time to rest.
(Speaking of which, the aerial dungeon… who was wearing the Fairy Ring again???)
First, I’ll go to the toilet.
“Kya?!”
“Ah, Themely and Cottonne!”
They were still here.
“We are guarding this place.”
“We’re borrowing this place too! Leave the cleaning to us!”
I see. Then I wonder who is guarding the mansion in Lurs Village below.
“Ah, do you know? Someone defeated the boss in the aerial dungeon.”
“We heard. The story is all the angels are talking about.”
“It’s amazing! We’ll definitely get to eat delicious dragon meat.”
Not the time for this conversation.
“Well then, I’m going to the toilet and then I’ll rest.”
“Understood.”
“Have a good rest!”
…The toilets in the Angel Race village also had hot springs for sewage.
(Fuu, I guess I’ll lie down for a bit.)
I returned to the bedroom and locked the door… huh?
(The bed, the futon is incredibly lumpy!!!)
And white feathers are sticking out too!!
“Um, are there two of you in here?”
Themely and Cottonne popped their heads out!!
“Please, this is part of the special futon for Master Deles to rest on.”
“Come on in! It’s a premium, living-feather bed for about one person!”
“N-no, but…”
Ah, they’re both making a hole in the bed.
It’s like a tunnel made of feathers… Ah, if I go in there, I…
“You must be tired. We’ll heal you.”
“Hurry up! Ah, you want water? I’ll give it to you mouth-to-mouth.”
(Ninah must have sent me here on purpose, knowing this!!)
Unable to resist, I was swept along…
(It’s Ric’s birthday, exactly why I need to forget! Yes, let’s do this.)
