22-Departure and first field researcher



 I'm ready.

 It is painful and heartbreaking, but if you don't eat the meal, you will be ashamed of yourself. Besides, we can't keep them waiting, we can't make them anxious.

 From now on, I have a heart of hospitality and a good attitude. I'm not going to be the only one who has a lot of experience in this field.

 And in the evening, I completed what Midea asked me to do.

 But her heart creaks.
 My conscience screams.

 If it were an erotic game, this might be the development I was waiting for. But in reality, I'm not happy about it at all. In fact, after that, I couldn't stop crying when I thought about my actions and those kids.


The next morning

 We left for the village and it's about time we arrived.

"Ryota. How long are you going to stay in the bathroom, leaving the driving to Madoha? You're all on top of the car, so it's still fine, but when you get to the village, you're going to have to kick it! If you don't do what we discussed, those kids are in trouble, okay?

..........

 I'm not done changing my mind yet. Just give me a second to get my mind off of it, I'll kick it off when I get there.


The village again

'Oh! We've been waiting for you, Ryota-dono.

 We had a good welcome from the chief, but the money and goods have come back and the refugees are very happy. The three of you are also being treated with great care.



'I cannot resist the temptation of these young and beautiful girls. They deserve to be rewarded for their devotion.

"Ryota-sama is surprisingly fond of you, too, don't you think Mutsugoro is sweet and clever? I admire it.

 You think the chief gets it already?
 It's too wide open!
 And I don't want to be a part of it! 
 Don't sound like an erotic father!

 It's too much privacy just because it's in the countryside. I guess I'll be considered a "chromosome demon" in this village, but Mutsugen is a copy of Window Flowers, and I'm really sorry for the girls who were with me.

Haha, not really... but it was a heavenly night that they endured the pain for the sake of everyone. I was also touched by that thought, so that's 20%. Please do not treat them poorly and make sure they are rewarded.

I don't suppose there's any need to put a nail in the coffin, is there? But Ryota-dono's request, we'll make sure of it.

 Do you think you can draw a line?

 You could really use some help, couldn't you?
 Make them happy, okay?
 Otherwise, I won't be rewarded.


Return to the village.

 I will be leaving soon, but I gathered Simon's bones in an urn first and buried them near the watchtower rock with Midia and built a grave.

 I'm also going to give the three daughters as an example, and the preserved food I got in the trade to them as a no-no. Many of the refugees have had their homes burned down and don't even have food. If they share their food, they will be more grateful. It wouldn't be surprising if they had a car full of food taken from the bandits.

 And all the errands in the settlement were done.

''Is it really okay for Midia to leave with you? The people in the village are grateful. Will you return when you become a demon exterminator?

It sure looks that way. I have Dryad's blood in me and I'm afraid I'm just trying to seduce a man, you know, because I have Dryad's blood in me and the girls are very wary of me. And now that my father is gone, and I'm an adult...

 Don't do that kind of thing in this settlement, though it's not exactly a superstition.


I'm ready to leave.

 It seems that a hunter from another village will soon be groomed, so Midia went to give Simon's bow to him to celebrate. I exchanged farm tools and salt with the chief, and all the preserved food went to the girls. The reward for the village is 20%, but the reward that the slavers had prepared for the bandits was a good amount of money and a sufficient harvest.

Midea, the lynching of the head of the slavers and bandits is about to begin. I don't want to see it, so we're leaving, okay?

''Got it, it's too bad it's going to be interesting from now on. If Ryota doesn't like it, I guess I don't have a choice...

 

 When we leave, everyone in the village waves us off.

 Since the goddesses were a disaster from the very beginning, they asked the Seven Lucky Gods to help them get lucky. I had to pay my own money for the donations....

 Still, let's hope it's a better trip next time, mediated directly by the Goddess.
