Now I'm happy to be perched on white. Fluffy is good, but so are paw pads!　White has soft pink paw pads, probably to keep his feet off the ground.

　I noticed this before I called up Red Plum. Did I just use [life magic]?　And. This inn has a small shrine in the garden. I was puzzled as to the criteria Ukon and the others used for selecting an inn, but it occurred to me that they chose a place where there was a shrine and where they could make charms. --He seemed to avoid the largest inns, but I suspect that this is because they are the main lodgings used by nobles, and their faces are hidden from the public.

I thought about stopping them, but they seemed to be enjoying themselves, so I didn't. They should be happy to have company since they have been on their own for so long, but they do not want to mingle with the mistiffs on the island. Black, too, chose not to go to the island.

　Mistyf are by nature quiet creatures who do not like change and do not interact with the outside world. Both Black and White may consider themselves different from other Mysphets because of their experience in the battle. Both of them must be glad to have found a kindred spirit. The fluffy confrontation tickles me a little and sometimes hurts. I wonder why they choose to be small instead of doing it outside.

Sometimes I try to hold the clothes where black or white is, enjoying the coming poke in the nose, but then I go back to my original goal. If I am an Ox, the autumn leaves will come before I can call out the red plum blossoms.

At the sound of Red Plum's voice, Black and White appear. Their fur is ruffled and their heads are so warm that steam is rising from their heads. White gives a sharp rebuke to the older-looking Black, and moves to his shoulder. White is hotter than Black.

He strokes the head of the sniffling White and ruffles his fur. The touch is as wonderful as ever!　I was thinking, "I'm not sure how to do this," when Red Plum silently adjusted my collar. It seems to be said that a disorderly dress is a disorderly heart.

While Red Plum reads a book, he works hard on calligraphy in the name of raising the level of <>. I am relieved to know that I have purchased a large amount of paper, but I feel a little uncomfortable because I can only write in block style. White compliments me, but I don't like my handwriting. I would like to be able to write in cursive or, if I want, in seal script, which would at least cover up my ordinary handwriting. Well, I would kill myself if I were handed a document in the real world with cursive handwriting that I cannot read.

　However, if the characters written in <> can be easily read, it would be easy for the enemy to predict our actions, and I would like to do something about it. It seems to me that it doesn't matter whether the characters are broken or hieroglyphic, as long as the person who made them can read them. Let's have some fun with trial and error.

I have [Detect Warding], but I haven't taken it yet because I don't want to waste skill points. I can manage!　I thought I should take it, but it seems that I should take it quietly. ...... I'll get it next time when I get higher level. I don't want to lose my skill points now, because I might want some unknown skill again. I should have gone to the arena to earn skill points!

　Today's dinner was fried Fusoebi and yam isobe. Grated yam is mixed with white soup stock until it becomes fluffy, and the prawns are wrapped in nori (seaweed) with a thin layer of potato starch to prevent them from shrinking and deep-fried. In this world, deep frying is easy and wonderful. Eat it fluffy and crispy with dashi soy sauce.

"If you raise the level, some things may be possible, if only temporarily. However, it is those who are misled by "inclination" who are named "man" or "male," from old men to young children. There is no guarantee that even I, now that I have become a man of ceremony, will not be deceived if I face it head-on. A drunkard of low spirit may certainly be deceived. Many other people will try to break through the warding.

"The people of Fuso are of the female lineage for fear of the influence of the tipping point. Women are always in charge, especially at inns where people tend to be unprotected, and those who have contact with guests are almost always women. The head of a family of high rank is also often a woman. If a man is in charge, he is surrounded by women so that he can cope with the situation if the country falls into a crisis.

Beniume covered his mouth with his scepter and said to the sake-drinker, while Sakon jumped in with his hand on the hilt of his sword and his koikuchi (mouth) cut off.

　It was a bit chaotic because Sakaton, Koume, myself and Sakon were talking together. At any rate, Sakon put down his sword, told Amane that the commotion was not an enemy attack, and settled down to listen to what he had to say. I am impressed that Amane was aware of the situation and did not leave Ukon's side. The reason why Sakon did not jump in without a moment's hesitation when Saketon came to him must be because he was in contact with Amane first. Ukon is the one to protect me, and I am just an extra.
