Isekai ni Kita Boku wa Kiyoubinbode Subaya-sa Tayorina Tabi o Suru

Master Rachel

And so I, Asagi Kamiyashiro, went out into the city in my new clothes. Of course, I finished paying for them first. As I had brought my own materials, it ended up costing five hundred and thirty gold pieces. Dragon materials were difficult to work with, apparently. I didnt know much about tailoring. According to Miss Amarilith, it would cost eight hundred pieces of gold to buy a completed set. That was a lotand it was mine. I couldnt help but be reminded of the time when I wore clothes I got from Russel, along with old leather armor. I chased goblins around looking like that.

We were still walking in the craftsmen district. And we were definitely drawing attention. After all, I was walking around in wind dragon materials. It was not usual, to say the least.

UhI dont like this

It was too much for a boring convenience store clerk. I didnt like being stared at. Thats why I worked at night, when there were fewer people around

It will be much worse during the tournament. You might as well get used to it.

Thats true

I knew how to prepare myself for the worst. Ive gone through trials and tribulations in all sorts of places. I could get used to it. And then I wouldnt mind as much.

So, what should we do?

You do realize that it is night time?

Right. It was already 7 oclock in the evening. Thats weird We had gone to Solitude first thing in the morning, and now that wed left, its night

Huh

While it was tiring, you are now quite presentable, Asagi.

Daniela gave me a thumbs up. I had acted as their dress-up doll for quite a while. Put on this, take off that Eventually, they didnt even bother to send me to the dressing room.

Thinking back on it made the stares I was getting now seem like nothing. Yes, this wasnt half as embarrassing.

Well, lets go and eat then.

I would like fish tonight.

Oh? Thats unusual. Maybe it will suddenly snow tomorrow too.

Shut up. There are times when even I can enjoy the tender texture of fish.

We joked together as we headed towards the dining hall we had discovered during the week.

It was widely popular and known for having an impressive number of items on its menu. They would serve fish there. As I also felt like fish today, it seemed like a good time to enjoy a nice drink and slowly poke our plates. We werent in a hurry.

The day after lots of fish and drinking. I had come alone to the back alley that was the entrance to Rachels room. I usually had Daniela open the entrance, but she had a bad hangover and didnt seem up to the task this time. But it opened anyway, proving that I was able to do it as well.

So

I wonder if she is here

Hey. Rachel?

Hmm!? Asagi!? Wa-wait!

Eh?

What was it? It was good that she was here, but I hoped she wasnt too busy. Still, I had time to wait. And so I did.

Sorryto keep you waiting.

Thats an understatement you bastard. Its been two hours!

I had considered just leaving. I had also considered just going in. But I never did any of those things and ended up sitting in the alley.

Ah! You were taking a bath!

It was clear, since her hair looked damp and the scent of soap was in the air.

Well, why shouldnt I!

Look, I know that time stands still herebut thats still too long!

SHUT UP!! And never mind that!! Come inside!!

She hit the window frame hard. Why the hell was she getting angry now I sighed and pulled myself through the windowand then stopped.

Uh, youre here? Lehaty?

Oh, yes Uh, hello

Lehaty always seemed very quiet and reserved when she wasnt transformed into a wolf. Still, at least she could greet me properly now.

Soyes. Lehaty and I are living together now

Oh You should have told us. We could have visited.

Hmph. No one wants the likes of you as a guest!

I pushed Rachel away as she folded her arms and snorted. Then I sat down at the table on the opposite side of Lehaty.

Its been a while. Whats happened to you since then? Did you ever get to go to the hot spring?

Ohyes It was very nice

That was good. It was a hot spring island I wanted to go there myself.

But, uhas for living there

You couldnt?

Yes.

She looked down awkwardly. Rachel then wrapped her arms around her.

Hey, Asagi. How dare you torment my Lehaty!

Since when was she yours

Th-thatoh, I dont know how to say it

What?

Both of them looked a little embarrassed.

Well regardless, it was all thanks to you So we should tell him Shouldnt we, Lehaty?

YesMaster Rachel.

Id prefer it if you didnt call me that

It was all very surprising, but it made sense once Rachel explained it to me.

Apparently, beastkin used gestures as part of their courtship. One of them was what I saw as surrender pose which is when you exposed your stomach.

And when Daniela and I had brought Lehaty and Rachel together, Lehaty had done this pose in front of Rachel.

It was love at first sight

Lehaty breathed dreamily.

ReallyI must be going senile.

Rachel admitted that she had no will to resist.

In other words, Lehaty had confessed to Rachel, and Rachel had accepted her.

Uh, right. Well, congratulations, I guess.

I wasnt sure what I else I could say. Nothing needed to be said Wait, thats not why I was here.

So, why have you invaded our nest?

Dont be so grumpy Anyway, I got some new clothes. And they are made of wind dragon materials.

Oh. Thats quite rare.

And so I explained to them how we had acquired them. Besides, the reason for all of this was that Legs of the God Wolf had wrecked my old trousers.

I dont want anything like that to happen again. So, could you add an Unbreakable enchantment?

Ugh. How troublesome.

Rachel rested lazily on the tatami floor.

Please. I dont want to ruin my equipment again.

Just dont use the skill and it wont happen.

Look. It was because I became your thrall that I was able to defeat the Loup-garou. I have to use that skill. But I dont want it to break my stuff.

But Asagi, do you really understand what it would mean? To make your gear unbreakable?

What?

Mean? It meant my pants wouldnt tear apart

It means that it is ultimate protection.

Rachel sat up and looked at me seriously.

Ultimate protection

Yes. You would call it a cheat. And it is. You had nothing at first, but you worked hard and experienced much to get here. Would you throw that all away?

That did make me think. When I had first come here. My arrival in town In Fhiraldo, it had been Russel and Maris and the Chief who helped me become stronger.

Then I met Gardo and Ness and became an Adventurer. Then I met Daniela.

Thanks. Yeah, youre right. They shouldnt be unbreakable.

Hmm. I thought so.

Alright, but can you tell how to use the skill properly?

It wasnt the Asagi Kamiyashiro way to rely on enchantments and skip the hard work. At least it hadnt been my style since I acquired Jack of all Trades, Master of None.

I sat down and faced Rachel and pleaded with her.

Hmph. You are my thrall And perhaps I shouldnt have thrown you out before teaching you properly.

Uh, then!

Stop looking so happy about it! It wont be easy, you know!?

I couldnt help it. I was very happy.

Thank you, Master!

Hmph

She snorted and looked away. But her ears had clearly reddened. Lehaty and I saw this and laughed.
