33 Art. 33. New Friends




 The town of Dexter was in an uproar.
 A soldier who was watching the surroundings from a watchtower spotted a huge demon coming from the Wejus River.

"After the Great Demon Forest Demon, it's now a huge demon?

 Trow, the head of the Adventurers' Guild, climbs the ramparts, swearing.
 Then he's startled by a giant figure coming toward him from across the street.

What the hell?

 It was a squid.
 A gigantic squid with ten legs was coming toward us!

What do we do now, guild master?

 The soldiers nearby looked very upset and asked Trow for orders.
 You'll be able to see that you're not the only one who has been fighting these monsters every year during the breeding season, but you can't fight against an unexpectedly large body.

Go get Lasse from Monster's Delivery! And those of you who are unavailable, take refuge in his office, the dwellers in waiting! Hurry up and do it!

"Li, I understand!

 Thus, unknown to him, Lasse had an important role to play in deciding the future of the town.

 This is the beginning of the story.

That's .......

 Lasse and Letty were summoned to Trow and saw the demon from the observation platform.
 Although the demon is slow, it's sure to come closer to you.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out something about this monster, Lasse, that's the monster in question.

 While the trolls were listening with extremely serious faces, Lasse secretly felt awkward, like a child whose mischief had been exposed.

"Oh, that monster,

Oh, what do you know about it?

Hey, Lasse, it's .......

 Letty whispered in Lasse's ear.
 Lasse also knew perfectly well what Letty meant.

(d*mn, that was hard to answer.)

 But I must tell you. If you don't tell them, they'll know anyway.

"That's .......

"I have found you, my Lord!

 But before Lasse can answer, a loud voice interrupts.

"What?

 Suddenly the loud voice causes Trow and the others to look around.
 Then their eyes wandered over to the figure of a squid, waving his hand in the air.

"......

 Trows look at Lasse.

Our Squire.

 Thus, the attack of the giant squid that shook the town of Dexi quietly came to an end.

 This was the end of the story.

 When he returned to the ranch, Lasse had found a number of new demons gathering around him.

"Long time no see, my lord.

Yeah, I'm just relieved to see you're here. Kraken, and everyone else.

 Starting with the Kraken, the giant squid demon, there was a beautiful octopus underneath, a half-fisherman with a fish head and dorsal fins and ear fins, a beautiful 6th class dog underneath, and a beast with a whale-like body and a dog's head.

 Residents of the town also watched Lasse and his friends from afar, curious about the new demon.
 Perhaps they've grown accustomed to Lasse's presence, since they haven't run away.

Lord!

 And then a woman in the shape of a fish with her lower body split in two halves jumped into the rise.

"Oh. Thank you to meet you!

 The woman's voice is very lustrous, and the people around her who hear her voice have a debauched look on their faces.

Oh, it's been a long time since the Sirens have been here.

Yes, I longed to see the Lord so much that I wiped my pillow with tears every night.

"Oh my God, I couldn't help but be urged to hurry up and hurry up.

 The giant squid moves its tentacles with gestures of exasperation.
 At first glance, it appears to be a perfect squid, but its oddly human-like movements give a comical impression.

But even so, I won't make you feel lonely anymore, Lord! I will be at your side from tonight!

 The Siren declares in a lusty voice, rubbing her cheek against Lasse.

There is no need for that.

 But someone pulled the Sirens away forcibly from behind.

"We're here for you, master.

That's right!

 Standing there were Lamia, Dryad, and Harpy.
 Furthermore, the demons that were there before had already been evacuated because they did not want to get involved in the woman's battle.

"Oh, it's you. Thank you for serving as Lasse's deputy caretaker. From now on, I'll take over as your caretaker.

 In a lustrous and confident voice the Sirens declare.
 It sounds so beautiful that the lamia and the harpy feel dizzy.
 Some of the people around them were even crushed by the beautiful voice.

It's not fair to put magic on your voice!

"Oh, this is my basic ability, so it's the same as the Harpy's ability to fly with her wings.

 The Sirens brushed aside Lamia's protests.

"A technicality. You could make your voice impervious to magic.

 The dryad glares coldly at the sirens.
 The dryad, a demon and a near-spiritual being, was resistant to the magical voice of the sirens. That's why she was the only one who was safe.



Well, well, so much for fighting. You've come a long way, so you should get some rest first. I'll show you your new home.

"Well, I'm afraid the Lord himself is showing you around!

 The Siren happily wraps her arms around Lasse's arms.
 Then the Sirens' ample breasts fill Lasse's arms.
 A soft touch is pressed against his arm, and you can feel the Sirens' magic breath on your ear.

Let's go, then.

 But Lasse is nowhere to be seen. He easily withstood a deadly two-platoon attack that corrupted the Siren's man.

Ah, as expected of our Lord. My voice is so easily withstood.

 The Siren is a demon who deceives people with her songs.
 To her, the existence of Lasse, who cannot understand her songs, is the equivalent of a muscular, beautiful man or a brilliant man full of intelligence.

 She is the equivalent of a muscular, beautiful, intelligent genius.

"We've come full circle on the grounds. Basically, you can do what you want within the fence, as long as you don't bother the other demons.

 After following the new demons, Lasse gives them only one last warning.

"There's not enough water.

 And a sullen voice came from the giant demon Kraken.
 Many other giant monsters also call out for a watering hole.

"Hmmm, so you certainly need a big watering hole for you guys.

 Many of the demons that came after them were aquatic demons.
 They couldn't live without water by their nature.

Well, we should buy some new land nearby and draw water from the river. You can read all about it at ......

"Live in the nearby river. Call me when your watering hole is ready.

 With that, the Kraken carries many demons on its body.

Fighting humans is forbidden except in self-defense, so be careful!

 Lasse instructs him not to cause conflicts with the surrounding residents, just in case.

I know. But I don't know a lizardman.

"Lizardman?

 Lasse is baffled by the sudden mention of Lizardman's name.

"There shouldn't be any lizardmen around here.

But when we were heading upstream to this town, there were a lot of lizardmen in the river. And they were surprised by the Kraken, and they attacked us.

 The Siren adds to Kraken's words.

'I think the lizardman was a swamp-dwelling creature: ......

 At the report of the Sirens, Lasse had a hunch that a new disturbance was brewing.
