After encountering the airship, we continued our air travel without incident that night.

　Perhaps because they had entered an unexplored area near the village of Oita Dragon, there were no more human settlements in this area, and they finally decided to make their first camping trip.

Good!　I don't care if it's like this!

　In front of the simple dwelling made of primordial magic soil, I let out a satisfied breath with a huff.

　The result is a slightly larger square building made of stone.

　It's a tofu house in the MyCraft sense, but inside there's a living room, a bedroom, a fountain toilet, a fireplace, a kitchen, a table and a chair, and all the necessary equipment for a residence.
　Since the walls and ceiling were built in one piece, there are no seams, so there is no draughts of air coming in from any direction other than the doorways. Thermal protection is reasonably good.

　For the light, a DP lantern is hung on the hooks on the ceiling, and the bedding is also DP's bedding, a set of bedding that is prepared for going out.
　The light of the lantern is tasteful and I like it well.

　By the way, I made the bath outside to make it an open-air bath.
　I want to relax and enjoy the scenery.

　No one would come in this unexplored area anyway. And the demons won't have to worry about it at all if Lephi is around.

　It would be a luxury tent for a night.
　No, it's not a tent...more like a hut or a pension.

　Huhuh, I've made many small house-like structures for the little girls to play with, so now this one is as easy to make as breathing.

I'm very handy ...... I can't imitate your use of primitive magic in this area.

"Hahahahaha, you see. This is the demon king's secret technique.

...... Speaking of which, Yuki. It's a good thing that you are a demon king, but when you make a set of children's make-believe games, it's a magician's trick! That's a bit of a stretch, don't you think?

What do you mean? Because he's a demon king, he knows how to satisfy even little girls perfectly.

"...... Well, if it's okay with you, that's fine with me.

　It's not just a matter of how much time you have left on the clock.

It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on it.

Hmm, isn't it?

....... . similar.

　It's not so much that you're not aware of it, but that you're doubtful.

　Lately, En is becoming more and more expressive in her emotions.
　It's a good thing that you're growing up to be a child who can express yourself in such a way.

Come on, guys, let's go inside and have some dinner. What do you want to eat?

"Dumplings

"...... Ramen

Ooh, let's have an aramen set. What do you want to taste?

Aaa ...... I'm going to have to get some tonkotsu.

"...... miso

Okay. I think I'll have the pork chop too.

　As I enter the hut with the two of them, I take out the pre-cooked food from the item box and place it on the table in the hut.
　The freshly made noodles in the item box immediately begin to emit a fragrant aroma, stimulating your hunger.

　After taking out the dumplings, a set of spices and chopsticks as Leffy requested, the two of you help them prepare the food and are soon ready for dinner.

Let's eat!　Thank you.

"Mm, I'll take it.

"...... Thank you.

　Holding hands together, we picked up our chopsticks.

Mmmm, it's super tasty to say the least. Leila's cooking skills are becoming a masterclass: ......

　This ramen, including the soup, was almost entirely made by Leila.
　After feeding her the DP catalog ramen a few times, she has completely memorized the ingredients used in the soup and has even learned to make her own modified version.

　I have all the necessary spices as long as the DP catalog is available, so it's not an impossible task: ...... Maybe Leila has a better sense of taste than others.
　I'm sure that her taste buds, combined with her keen sense of observation and insight, are what allows her to make such a delicious dish.

　After taking a bite, she would say, "Oh, I'd like to add a little more acidity," or "I think it would be better to add a pinch of salt to taste," and she would turn a dish that Liu had failed to make into something delicious, just like a professional.

　It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.

I'm sure you'll be able to find the best way to get the best out of it.

"...... Leila sister is strong.

"Mm . Leila is strong. She's just, like, strong.

I know exactly what you're going to say.

　Because none of our people are up to Leila.
　Leila's backbone theory. I would like to advocate it.

...... char siu, hot and juicy!

"En is still a meat lover. Here, the dumplings are good too.

....... Dumplings are good too.

　Huffing and puffing very hard, but happily advancing the chopsticks. Just looking at it soothes the spirit.

"Haha, I'll give you a piece of my chashu.

Mm, it's no use. You can have a piece of me. You will taste it, won't you?

"...... wow, meat festival. Thanks, Lord, sister.



　It's not a good time to be in the field.

　And so we spent a comfortable night, not so much like a camp.


　　　* * * *


　A strong wind blows.

Ugh, it's cold ...... something, it's getting colder all at once.

　Until yesterday, it hadn't felt particularly cold, just a little cooler than in the Magical Forest, but today it's usually chilly around here.

　It's a little far away, so it looks like a haze, but there are probably some snow clouds in the distance, so the temperature must actually be low.

　It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.

Then we're only a short distance away from the dragon's village. It's basically cold around there, as opposed to the forest of the magical world. It snows a lot.

"You're from a snow country?

That's one way to put it. --Yuki, if it's cold, why don't you just create a warm wind with magic and let it surround you. See, the magic you always use to dry your hair. You can use it. I have already done so.

"Mm, the hairdryer magic. I hadn't thought of that.

　You're going to be able to find out if you're going to be able to get a good deal more information about this.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most out of your time with the help of a good friend.

　Oh ...... warm. 　
　It's great, it's warm like spring weather all at once.

　If you wear a hair dryer all over your body, it's like an air conditioner.
　Okay, let's call it air conditioner magic. It's the magic of always receiving warm air on your body to keep you dry.

　You have to be careful not to get sick. ......

I have to be careful not to get sick.

Oh, I didn't know that the body of a dragon is resistant to temperature changes.

I know. You can feel the temperature high and low, but you don't freeze in the cold or get burned by the heat. Once, when a nearby mountain erupted and I got caught in a lava flow, it was so hot that I got sick of it.

"...... You know what, Refi. I think normal organisms would die if they were hit by a lava flow.

Well, except for me and the old dragons, all of them screamed and ran away, so that must have been a fatal wound to an ordinary dragon.

　Oh, thank God.
　It's just a funny old dragon species.

You can find out more about this at ...... and you can see that my wife is so dependable that it makes me cry.

Kaka, aren't you crying for joy?　--But, Yuki, I see it.

　I turn my head to where Leffi is pointing.

　When I strained my eyes and looked into the distance, I saw ...... two mountain ranges that are high enough to pierce the clouds and a deep, deep gorge between them.

　It is a huge canyon that looks like an organism's gagging bass.

That's ......

Hmm. My birthplace - the village of the dragon.
