24 2-8 Wendy's determination in the commercial city of Ainshale




After the three of them left, I managed to finish my meal and look out the window, which was now completely dark.
I was conscious of the fact that the two of them were out gathering materials on a night like this, and I reminded myself to thank them again.
Then, with a slap on both cheeks with my recovering hand, I motivate myself.

But still, an idea.
When I looked at my inventory of materials with spatial magic, there was almost nothing left.
Not to mention the steel ore that I had barely touched, even the silver ore that I will be using most in the future is gone.
What was left was.
Massive amounts of poisonous plants.
A little bit of moonflower
A little bit of jade.
Small amount of colored glass
Rose quartz brooch
2 magic guide plates
Vibrating spheres: 2 pieces
and the only thing that comes out of the smelting process is the large amount of stone that comes out of the smelting process.

There isn't anything fragile enough to be considered a sight to behold.
Poison Body Grass is used to make an antidote, but unfortunately, there are few enemies around this town that need poison removal, and the demand for it isn't that high, so the Adventurer's Guild will have a large stock of it.

And then there's the Moonlight Grass.
Seeing how few of them there are to begin with, they must be valuable in their own right.
But I don't know what it's used for, as it's just a thinly shining plant.

Gekko-so Plants that grow in the light of the moon. It is mysterious and very beautiful.'

So who's subjective? What's the use of that?
I'm looking for a use for the moonflower while fiddling with the stone with my arm that hasn't been lifted yet.
A stone...... Stones, huh?
Like a moonstone with a moonflower and a stone? What the heck!

Moonlight Stone A stone that emits a faint light. The light becomes stronger when the magic is poured into it.

And..........
In my hand is a stone that emits a light.
It looks completely stone, but it's emitting a faint light.
So anything is possible now? Is alchemy anything at all!
Then I can't use it as it is, or at least I want to eliminate the texture of the stone.
I'm going to combine it with colored glass transparency.

Moonlight Glass A transparent glass that glows faintly. When you pour your magic power into it, the light becomes stronger.

The faintly glowing glass is complete.
HAHAHA-! So it's already there. Alchemy can be anything you want it to be!
A glass that glows with magic. You could roll it up into a little ball.
That's it. That's a miniature bulb.

That's why..... So what?
There's a light source in this room, too! It's too late!
I wonder if I can find anything....

What I saw was the rose quartz brooch I just bought today.
Come to think of it, I just let you go along for the shopping, but it was fun.
It was cute to see him trying his best to eat in a hurry....

When I poured my magic power into the vibrating sphere, it vibrated gently with a buzzing sound.
I can't call it a high speed vibration, can I?
Maybe it can be a wake-up call or something. No, I'm not sure.

I took the magic guide plate apart and placed it on the table.
This is said to have different effects on the surface and the back side, and can be used to pull back and pull apart.
As a test, I poured my magic power on the surface and brought it closer to the top of the table. Then, the objects on the surface of the table would move closer and the ones on the back of the table would move away.
Come to think of it, when I was a student, we used to play with magnets in class.

Huh....what are they doing now? Wendy-san.
While playing with the magic guide board with the clickety-clack, I kept thinking of Wendy.


    -Wendy SIDE-.


I was alone in the room I had been given.

'I'm coming in. May I come in?
Come in.

It's the voice of Master Yashis.

'How are you?'
...There is no good reason. Why, why did you say those things?
Did you have a good time that day?
... yes. It was a very, very productive time.

Master Yashis seems to have strayed from the story.
He didn't answer anything I asked him that day either.

'I see. I'm glad to hear it.'
It's not good. Please tell me why you would say such a thing as a match between that man and Lord Dardaril.
'There's a reason for that. I am sorry that I took advantage of you, but you can rest assured that things will still fall into place for the better.
'I can only assume that Master Yashis is so blinded by money that he's thinking of selling me to Master Dardaril.

I am a special slave.
I have the right to choose my partner, but it seems like you're trying to convince me that it's a win-win situation.

'Hahaha. Hahaha, that's not true. You wish for happiness and you are the one to make it come true. And you're not the kind of person to cruelly abandon your clients.
That's.... But 80 million knolls in a week is hardly...
You don't think he can get them?
'I wouldn't say that.... But I'm sure this is a mixture of my hopes...
'Hope......... I'm sure he'll make something happen for me too.

Yashis laughing happily.
A man who is serious about his work and believes only in money and himself.
A scary man who wouldn't dare to mess with his slaves, but wouldn't hesitate to send his criminal slaves to a harsh environment without mercy.
Normally a stern and demanding man, you may have never seen this man smile so happily.

''Once again, it's okay. It will be good for both you and I. I'm sure it will be good for both of us. I'm sure.
'Huh.... I don't know anymore. I have no intention of becoming Dardaril-sama's even if that person loses, you know.

Yashis smiled at that and left the room.
The pale light coming in through the window reminded me of that gentleman's face.
He patted me on the head. He told me it was okay.
I want to believe his words, but as a practical matter, the wall of 80 million Nol is endlessly large.

Even if Yashis-sama likes me and I'm a disciple of Rainrich-sama, I'm not sure I'll be able to cross this wall.
That person had two other beautiful people in his life, and I doubt that he would actually care about me.
That person has a purpose. To that purpose, antagonizing the kid in charge of the West Region would certainly be a long way off.
I don't want to be that person's slow down.
I don't want to do that, ever.
When I'm alone, I only think about bad things.
Still, when I think back to those happy days, I'm happy, but I'm also sad that I'll never be able to make that happen again, so I naturally cry.

When we first met, I didn't know why Master Yashis was able to meet me face to face.
That person who came to enslave two beautiful women.
I thought they were no different from the vulgar people as usual, but apparently there was a reason for it.
He was an unusually likeable man, who might be a gentle man since he wouldn't force two such beautiful women to be his subservient slaves.

The next day we met, I was still in bed when I was awakened by the sound of Master Yashis' hurried footsteps.

'Wendy?' Wendy, are you awake? No, you must get up. Please get ready to go outside now. I'll prepare your clothing here, so if you want to bathe in the hot water, I don't mind, so please be quick about it!

After saying that much, Yashis went to the dressing room with a hurried gait.
I'm sure it's not just a matter of time before I bathe in the hot water and change into the clothes that Master Yashis has prepared for me.

I'd like to entertain a certain someone. Oh, it would be better if we did not have breakfast. The person you are entertaining will be known to you when you get to the central plaza, and since he seemed tired, please give him some peace of mind.

I headed to the central square, feeling slightly uncomfortable with the spirited Yashis.
Who in the world could it be? I don't think it could be Dardaril-sama, though I didn't think it could be him, but when I headed to the still sparsely populated central square, a man was taking a meal on a bench.

''Ah........''

That person was the one before this one, and I noticed that the sauce had gotten on my mouth before I realized it.
That person was meditating and tasting what he was eating, so he gently wiped the sauce off his eyes and sat down next to me.
There was something cute about the way he was surprised as he thanked her, and it was endearing how he didn't even notice that he had the sauce on like a child.
Love at first sight? I don't believe in such things.
But I wonder why. It made me feel very safe to be near this man.

I was told that men would appreciate a knee pillow, so I offered it, but when he refused, I felt a little sad.
I would have loved to have had a knee pillow.
What would the master look like?
He said he'd love to have the next opportunity to do it, so I had a trivial thought to look forward to that moment.

The kind person who worried that I hadn't just woken up.
I'm a little embarrassed now that I recall how stubbornly I told him I was fine.
And a master who doesn't know any common sense about slaves.
It is only in the mercantile house that you can give a slave a meal with no hands on it.
When I give them an ah-ha, the sight of them crunching and eating is also cute.
I was frankly embarrassed that they had seen me eating.
I ate as quickly as I could, but I choked on my food and the kind master who shared a canteen of fruit wine with me.

I got up and went to put my arms around him, but he moved away from me.
As he tried to move away from me, I sniffed the scent of herbs in disgust.
When I crossed my arms, he looked embarrassed and embarrassed, his cheeks loosening in embarrassment and happiness.
I knew I had large breasts, but I'd never imitated pressing my arms against them like this before, so I enjoyed that reaction, and I hugged her again and again because I was kind of happy and happy myself.
I hugged him many times because I was so happy and happy.
He said he was so happy that he felt like crying. I pressed against him again and again, enjoying his reaction, if he was that happy.
I felt like a lover, I thought I was unworthy of being a slave, but looking at Master, I decided to cherish the happiness I had now.

When I went to the clothing store, he asked me to pick out some clothes, so I tried my best to find some clothes that would suit me.
As I was searching, I found more and more clothes, this and that.
I was a bit disgusted by the fact that the master was happily chatting with a female clerk, and I interrupted him even though we were in the middle of a conversation.
But he bought four of the clothes I had chosen and he liked one of them and wore it as it was.

Next, we headed to the tool shop. All the while, of course, we walked arm-in-arm with each other.
Why does this man feel so safe, unlike the others?
I wondered why he was able to treat his slaves so normally.
When I asked him if he might be, he answered honestly that he was a 'drifter'.
I heard that "drifters" have great power and that there are many people who abuse them, but I believe that the master is not like those people.
The people who come to buy me are people with money.
Money is also power.
If you have power, you can change people.
Unconsciously, they begin to see others as above or below them.
Then they think that if they are slaves, they can do whatever they want.
There were many nobles who looked at my breasts with vulgar eyes.
Master Yashis didn't want to sell me to such a person, and although I was only allowed to see a few people, it still didn't change.
But this guy seemed different.

'I want to live a peaceful life without working for the rest of my life,' said the master, laughing and talking about his dream.
I thought it was a luxury, but I wanted to help him achieve his dream.
I saw the master and the two stars in the quiet place, and I fantasized about snuggling with him.
I wanted to be a part of the master's future.

"I want to be with this man.

For the first time in my life, I was confused by the emotions I was feeling, but I felt a warmth in my heart.

Afterwards, we headed to the tool shop together, and I had a lot of fun with Master as he tried to waste money on weird things, and we ate and drank tea while watching street art, and we talked and laughed about trivial things, and I heard a lot about him. It was a great time.


But he assured me that he was my master.
When he squeezed me and hugged me, it was a little painfully strong, but it felt good and happy, and I fell in love with the idea that I could be so happy so many times a day.

I was surprised when Master Yashis showed up and said he was going to win, but I was more worried about my master.
The other party was the son of that ruthless Western Region Supervisor.
What if master was in danger?
I definitely don't want that to happen.
That's why I knew I had to stop him.

He patted me on the head and said, "It's okay.
'I'll take it,' he said with a man's face.

His words made me happy, and his hand was warm as he stroked me.
I couldn't say anything else.

So. I had to believe.
He told me that my master said it would be okay, so I shouldn't cry.
I'll trust him. I'll believe it.
I will be her master's slave.
