13-Summon Ester




Hmmm... hmmm... it's delicious.

Well, that's good to hear.

Are you sure you don't want me to eat my food today?

'Oh, you're welcome. You can have another drink. You've done your job, now eat up.

'Are you sure! Wow!

 She's wearing a silvery white helmet and looks happy with her hamburger.
 The next day after the bombing, I was feeding Noll lunch. I asked her what she'd like in return, and she said she'd like some food from the mess.
 He said he'd rather have food than more clothes or ornaments or anything girly like that. He said he didn't want orc meat, but if it came from food, that was fine.
 I'm going to make sure I sort out the items from the mess at a later date. There's too many to do without taking the time to do it.

''Am........So, when do you call the girl who left yesterday?

Hmmm, I don't know what to do.

 I'm torn, I'm very torn on whether to give that guy a go.
 If we're talking about a performance rating, he's one of the better URs. Looks pretty good too. But considering his personality, I'm not sure if we'll actually be able to communicate with him.

'You are a mage, right? If you're willing to fight with me, that's quite reassuring.

'Hmmm, I guess so...'

 Esther's job title is Mage. She's an awesome guy who can use fire, water, wind, earth, dark, light, and even support magic.
 I'm sure he's someone I'd love to have in my party.

I'm sure you're right. I'm sure you'll be able to find out.

 We're still at the inn now. If I call you here, you'll be seen. If you let her out in her room, the innkeepers might have some strange questions about when she entered.
 So I decided to go outside and summon her.



Oh, so this is how I've been called up too. I'm jealous that I was properly summoned on the ground.

I'm really sorry for what happened then.

 We moved out of the city and came to an unpopular place.
 There, I took out my phone and selected Esther's summoning stone from the items section. The summoning cost was shown as 22. That's pretty close to it.
 Do you want to use it? I tapped on it and the screen of my phone began to glow and light flooded out.

''Hmm........''

 The light took on the form of a person and one girl appeared in front of me. She looked younger than Noor.
 Gray hair that stretched to her shoulders. Part of it is worn up two-side-up, which is adorable. She's wearing a gray shoulder-length dress and a mini-skirt with a more open front of the waistband around it.
 She is also shorter than Noor and carries a staff with a disproportionate length of red jewels on it.

'Your brother is my master?'

'Yes. I'm Heihachi Okura.

"I am Noor Fanya, knight in shining armor.

 After a bit, I opened my eyes and me and the crimson eyes met. They're a little fishy and strong. Then he narrows his eyes and smiles and asks me if I'm the master.
 I don't know, it's supposed to be a very cute smile, but it gives me a thrill for a moment.

'Hmm, yeah.'

 Estelle muttered and smiled.
 And now she introduces herself - she didn't start. She just looks at us while smiling and laughing the whole time. The air of the place is frozen.

No, introduce yourself!

'Because you know, don't you? Then it's okay.

 She tilts her head and frowns as if in trouble.
 I just had a momentary urge to be myself. I know, I know, but let's do this kind of thing, shall we? Even the Noll next to you is frozen in place, mumbling, Oh..........

 His appearance is juvenile, but his tone of voice is mature and unpredictable, and he was a popular character in GC. I love her.
 But it's hard to talk to her in person. It's hard to talk to her, but it's hard to talk to her in person.

No, I mean, there's a certain amount of promises to be made, right?

Because it's too much work. So, what does your brother want with me? And I wish you would stop using that tone of voice because it's weird.

 He puffs out his cheeks and makes an angry gesture.
 And my tone of voice........creepy! It's the first time we've met, so I'm trying to be polite, but what's up with all of these guys being creepy?

''Ki, weird.........''

I agree with you on that.

 Noll shakes his head yes and agrees with that. I kind of felt very annoyed when Noll said that, so I kept my cheeks stretched out.

'Oh well. Estelle, come party with us.

Why?

 My mind went blank for a moment at the unexpected reply.
 What? Why? I didn't think you would ask me why. Normally, they would just help me out.

I'm not going to be able to get it right.

Why do you speak in such a reverent manner, sir?

 d*mn, if you want to laugh, you can laugh. I spoke in a polite tone again without thinking.

Hmmm, yes. I don't want to be an adventurer, but it's okay, because you look like fun.

 She turns away and puts a finger to her cheek and pretends to be distressed. The action smells like an act.
 It's a good thing that she's cooperating with me, because it looks fun.

I'm glad to hear that. How did you know I was going to be an adventurer?

You said it first, didn't you? He said you get some knowledge and memory of the summoner. So she should have known that from the beginning. In the first place, it's impossible for us to refuse to accompany Okura-dono, though...

 Noll explained in a dumbfounded way.
 Come to think of it, I seem to remember him saying something like that. So you're saying that Esther knew what she was doing? I don't know how much I've known but I'm scared.
 But I would never refuse. Is it because I am a summoner?

'Hmm, I'm not sure. Nice to meet you anyway, brother.

 He greeted me with a meaningful smile.
 Oh no, what is this girl. I'm still scared.



Welcome home. How's it going over there?

 After the summons, we were back at the inn. I'm tired of hunting for messes, so I'm not going to hunt for a while.
 When we entered the inn, we were greeted by the lady of the inn who always works at the reception desk.

'This is my daughter who started partying with me today, I'm thinking of renting two rooms, do you have any rooms available?'

 I'll put Esther in front of you and introduce her. Are you okay with that? I thought, but she bowed honestly and greeted me. Good, he's more honest than I thought?
 I've finished saying hello and I'm going to rent a room as soon as possible. Noll and I were two, so I was renting one room, but it's already two women.
 With this one, I'll just put them in the same room and I'll be fine with a single room. It's going to be hard for two women and a man to share a room, me.

'Yes. Well, in that case--

 The innkeeper woman quickly chooses a room and tries to reply. But it was interrupted in the middle.

'Oh, I'll be fine, rooming with you,'

I don't mind being myself.

 What the hell are these people thinking? We have the money to spare, we don't have to all stick together.

No, you're down to two women, so you get to stay here by yourself. I'll stay here by myself.

It's not fair! I can't believe I'm staying in one room all by myself!

Yes, it is. I think that's very unfair.

 I don't know what you're talking about for a minute. What do you mean, it's not fair, what's going on? Estelle is laughing and taking advantage of the flight with a funny smile.
 It's worse than having a man and a woman staying in a room together. I don't care about Noll because he's a disappointment and I can't see his face, but please don't Estelle.
 



















































































































































"That's not what I'm talking about I'll take three rooms and--

Hey, sis. Doesn't this inn have rooms for three?

 If you think that's cheating, why don't you just rent three rooms? That's what I thought, and I was going to say let's rent a room.
 But Estelle interrupts me.

"There are only two beds, but we have a room where one of them is a big bed.

So can we just sit there?

 The woman explained and Esther agreed. We need to tell her to change it now.
 But am I really going to let this opportunity pass? You share a room with two beautiful girls. And I can hear the demonic whispers. A big bed means that Noll and Esther will be sleeping in the same bed. I want to see it, I want to see it pretty badly.
 And I'm also curious to see what kind of conversation the two of them have... no, no, no. This is the place to tell Esther to be bizzare and make her correct it.

'Hey! What's the point--

Oh, no, it's okay. Besides, you don't mind it, do you? Or ... you don't like it?

No, I mean, I don't mind...

 She's short and asks me with a superior look. Oh no, this is bad. What a destructive force. Stop it, it works on me.
 In the end I couldn't say it back and just agreed.

''Huh, you're right. ........I was wondering if you should let me out--you're going to make me regret it plenty.

 I borrowed the keys and headed to my room. On the way there, Esther was muttering something, but I didn't hear the rest of it.
 But is it my imagination that I felt a tremendous shiver down my spine?
