Maybe I was asleep.
I should have been asleep, but I felt a strong blow to my head and when I woke up, I saw Rainrich's face smiling.

''You have a good status. The alchemy room isn't the kind of place to buy a spring, though.'
You're wrong!
Oh, yeah? So is it fair to say that you're ready to win?
Hmm, yeah, I got it.
That's fast. You still have until the deadline. Well, it's good for me, too. You and your cat can stay here until your competition day, but from now on, your two adventurers will have to sleep in the inn.

Yeah, it's nice to know that White and I are allowed to use this place, but convenience...?
Is he thinking something else? Scary.

Also, don't go out there alone until Yassis comes back.
Hmm?　Why?
If you want to die, go ahead. Go ahead. I'll make some money that way. But you don't want to die, do you?

That's what I'm saying, that's the total villain, Leinrich.

"Okay, okay. I'll be right here. Thanks for the advice.
Hm, it's not like that. Now that you're up, go get some work done. You're 20 years too young to be coasting.
I'm not sure if I'm awake, or if I've just been woken up, but...
'Don't talk back. Ahhhh, I couldn't do anything about the house, though.
'Really, Reinrich!　You're God!
Yes. I am God!　If you understand, work like you're told. If you think you're going to get a house for free, you're wrong!

Whoa, whoa, whoa. If that's the case, it's a different story.
I'm a master at motivating people.
Well, it's another morning of smelting!
I feel like I'm working more than I did in my old world.
But in this world, you make more money for what you work.
No service overtime, no rush to work, that's just heaven on earth!

Aina, Sorte, and Shiloh were still asleep, but let's get started.
White was clinging to me when I got up and it was hard to pull him off.
Aina and Sorte were curled up away from my arm pillows before I knew it, but maybe they weren't comfortable.
I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do about it.

For now, let's just make a vibrator out of the materials we have now to pay off our debt to Yashis.
It seems like it would be better to make a wide variety of them, including sizes and shapes, so let's have some fun while we do it.
I'm already used to making 10 of them, and the ratio of the mixture that was so complicated is now easy to do.
I have about 20 empty magic stones left, so let's make 20 of them.
20 of them would be 1 million nol. Including the magic power, it's 1,020,000 Nol.
That's quite a lot of money if you think about it in a normal sense.
But I'm sure Yashis would sell them to a nobleman, so there's no problem.

I already completed one while thinking about it.
I poured the magic into the magical stone and confirmed it would start up.
It looks like it's going to be okay. It looks like it's going to be okay.
It's vibrating at high speed, and it doesn't get hot or anything.
It's good to know that it's going to sell for 50,000 nolls for sure.
Let's keep making them!

It was at that moment when he finished making the 15th one.

''My alchemy skill level is now 8.　I've learned a new forgery (multi-copy).''

Oh.........it's up.
I knew it was going up fast........
I've sensed this, but I don't think this rate of rise is common.
Is there some kind of drifter's correction?
But it doesn't come with a cheat ability to increase experience.
I'm sure there was such a thing in the skills given by the goddess, but I don't think I have it.

Well, that's okay.
It's only beneficial for me if my level goes up quickly, and I won't have to worry about relying on it too much to die prematurely.
We'll appraise it for now, and that's what we'll do.

Alchemy Lv8 Forgery (multi-copy)
　　　　Degrades and replicates the performance of a specified object.
　　　　Material is automatically consumed]

I'm not sure if it's a problem for me to specify.
I've been thinking about it for a while now, but I've been wondering, if it's a "specified item" and "materials are automatic," can it be smelted in the magical space?
I'm going to try it out first when I think of it.

I expand the magic space with many empty spaces.
I'm not going to be able to get it right, but I'm going to be able to get it right.
I'm going to put the vibrator that I just finished in number 2 and put the materials in number 3.
Then I activated the forgery (multi-copy).
The materials are automatically consumed from number 3, and the finished product goes to number 4.

The completed vibrator is taken out and appraised.

Vibrator A tool for masseuse.　Uses vary from person to person. Producer: Kazuki Oshimiya.

I poured more magic power into it and checked the vibration frequency, and it was no different from the one I usually make in terms of physical experience.
I knew it.
It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're talking about when it comes to a brooch or a necklace that has a positive value.
Because those things are up or down in performance depending on the workmanship, the performance will be reduced in forgeries.
But I thought it was unreasonable to say that, for example, if you replicate a shovel, the power to dig a hole is reduced.
If I duplicated the plate, there was no way that the amount of the plate could be reduced.
Then what about the vibrator?
There was a fear that the frequency could go down, but it didn't go down because it wasn't a positive value of 'frequency'.

There was a possibility that the size could be reduced, but then it would just be a matter of making the specified object bigger.
This would be the perfect skill for me, being a monomaniac!
Of course, you need to pour magic power into the finished product, but the time can be greatly reduced.
The disadvantage of this would be the amount of MP consumption.
Even so, it consumes about 1.2 times more MP than duplicating one by hand.
It's a bit of a problem when you're duplicating an accessory, but it's a perfect skill for duplicating the vibrators in this case.

Efficiency!
Put the items you've finished making into the magic bag and make all 4 remaining items.
It's going to take a lot of MP, but we'll have a break afterwards anyway, and we have some magic potions, so don't worry about it.
After this, we'll need to earn some money to get ahead of them.
Since we have two slaves in the middle of no home, there is no better way to have money.
I'm sure Rainerich has some ideas, but when you think about the time when you failed to rely on that all the time, it's still good to have a good amount of money on hand.

In terms of efficiency alone, it would be better to mass-produce vibrators as soon as the materials arrive and distribute them to Yashis.
Hand formation is a bad idea that uses more energy than MP.
Of course I'll continue to make accessories, but my priority is still the vibrators.
That way, you can go into town while earning money.

Hmm........Lord. I'm hungry.

White heaved and stuck to my back.
He seemed to have woken up. Still, is he demanding food?
I put my hands behind my back and put White on my lap.

You'll have to wait a bit longer. I'm working now.
Work?　I didn't do anything, okay?
Um, well, it'll be over really soon.
I'm hungry.

He stood up a little bit to climb up on me, and he bit my ear softly.
Are you that hungry?

I understand. Can I go back to my stall?
Hm. I like it. I like meat.
'Then I'm sorry, but can you get some for the group?　The money would be enough for an extra 100,000 Nol.

It would be enough, no matter how much White would eat.

'Anything?'
Just don't take mine as a bug. You can do whatever you want with the rest of them.

Some of the stalls were selling bugs.
I would never eat them, even if they were good.
You can call me an aphrodisiac, but absolutely, positively, I won't.

Okay. I'm out.
Don't rush. Just don't come home without it. We'll all eat together.
Okay.

This guy was going to eat it........
But being an honest White, once he tells you, he'll take it home and eat it.
He's a good boy, after all. He's a good boy.
But since I'm hungry, I'm sure he'll be back in a hurry.
You can't blame her for that, since she's probably still at an age where she's more interested in eating than in being s*xy.


Aina and Sorte had just finished washing their faces in the waterworks in the alchemy room when White returned.
I said I'd explain to him when he woke up yesterday, so I decided to give him a brief explanation about White while we ate our meals.

I bought White yesterday. I was smelting in Yashis' shop until morning. I was tired, so I went to bed. That's all.

Communicate concisely and clearly.
It could not be a clearer explanation than this.
It is an indisputable fact.
Now, how will they react?

You know what? That supposed to convince you?

Sorte's eyebrows twitched, apparently angry.

'What more do you want me to do?'
'So tell me why you were sleeping with him and why you bought this baby!
Oh, yeah. The reason. Hmm, the reason we were sleeping together was because I was sleepy and I wasn't originally going to buy White, but I thought it was okay since I missed him.

Oh, is that an explanation?

'Excuse me, my lord. My lord needs money now, doesn't he?
Of course. I need a house, too, and it's not even close to being enough.
'Then maybe we shouldn't be making any extra purchases now?

It was true, but I'm sure it was only too late or too early to buy White.

'Hmmm, White saved me from the ragpicker yesterday. I can't have the two of you with me all the time, so I needed it if I had to.
'Huh!　Were you attacked yesterday?　Where?
It's right there. Right after the crash yesterday. Then White saved me.
"Hm. White is the Lord's pike. He helps the Lord in his time of need. He's not a bad dog.
You are a crappy dog!　It's not my fault I couldn't get out yesterday because of this guy to begin with!

They don't get along.
I mean, White is bitter, right?
Not a dog and monkey, but a cat and dog.

"Oh, my Lord. I'll return this to you. I asked Solte to use it, and he seemed to feel good about it.

If you only listen to the words, it's pretty bad.
I glanced at Sorte and he swung a bone he was holding and threw it at me.
I'm sure you'll be able to catch it and save me.

Thank you, White.
Hm. A bone would be good for the dog. Maybe you should have a bone instead of a spear.
"I know this cat is trying to pick a fight.　Okay, I'll buy it!
"Sorte. They're kids. And don't get up while you're eating. It'll get dusty.
'Gululu. Don't be right now!　What will you do with this inexorable anger!
"Dogs. You have to be patient. I tried to resist snacking on it on the way home earlier, too.
Don't do that with me!

Oh, are they close?
It's hard for others to see that you're so close to each other that you're fighting with each other.

'Well, anyway. White will be guarding me around, so I'm sorry, but I'm going to ask you two to concentrate on gathering material.
It's all well and good, but if you're on your own, are you going to send her to sleep in the alchemy room with you?
I've got permission from Reinrich, for example. Just until the end of the game.
Will you be sleeping with me?
'Sleep. White is better off with the Lord.
Pervert!
No!

White is like a child.
I think it's too much to treat him like a pervert just for sleeping with someone like that.

"Hey, my lord.

Aina spoke with an uneasy look on her face, her fists clenched in front of her chest and her eyebrows raised in a figure eight.

'Does my lord not like, well, big-breasted women?'
No, I love it.
Yeah, right. That's all right then. I get along well with Sorte, and I thought the lord didn't like the likes of me.
'Don't be silly. I prefer a more feminine shape.

It's only natural. Solte and Shiro are no different from each other in my eyes.
Solte may be older, but she's also smaller and more childlike in stature.
I'm a little older, but still childlike.
I just have to add that I have no problem with small breasts and a small ass.
I don't know, it's like I like meat and vegetables.
Just because I like one of them doesn't mean I don't like the other one.
I don't mind liking them both!

But anyone who says they don't care either way.
You can't. Not either, not both.
That guy doesn't have a lot of pockets, he doesn't have enough respect!

They touched their own breasts and crossed their gazes to each other's chest.

'What...'
White is still growing. He'll grow into a boner. But....
I don't give a shit!　It doesn't matter, my breasts!
Don't be pushy. You can't compete on a chopping block.
'Gululu!　It's not a chopping block!　I've got some!
It's the difference between one and two. I'll go out there if I have to. I'll take care of that poor dog.
'Ohhhh!　I won't tolerate you being a kid!

I guess we're not getting along.
I must have misjudged that.
Now, let's stop the fight between the two of you.

Aina. Stop them.
Me?　It would stop if my lord told me!

Hahaha. Don't push it.
But you can't stop him, can you?

White. If we fight, no dinner.
Love. I don't!
Hey!
Food is important. More than dogs.
I'm not a dog, I told you!　Oh, God!　What am I supposed to take this anger out on!
Good. All right, well, good luck with your source material. I needed some good ore, so you'll do just fine.

Thumbs up here. Thumbs up and a wink.

'Noooooooo!　All right!　Come on, Aina!　Thanks for the treat!
Oh, yeah. So long, my lord. This is the ore from last time.
Oh, thank God. I'm almost out of supplies.
I'm going to be on my way, then. 'Solte, wait a minute!　Hey!

Aina runs out of the alchemy room after Sorte.

'Well,'
Well?
I'm going to go back to sleep.
Hmm. White's going to bed.

I was sleepy because I was woken up halfway through.
I have some MP recovery, and I'll sleep until those two come back.
Thus coasting until they returned, I enjoyed the slumber, not imagining that when I woke up, I would find myself curled up like a frontworm, with the best smiling Sorte in front of me, and I enjoyed the slumber.
