The Bloody Crab's habitat is said to be the wilderness south of the steer mine where we defeated the Mithril Golem.
　We've transitioned to the mine at the 'gate' and we have no choice but to go south on foot from here.

''It's not far enough to go by 'garden'. Let's go running.
'What? Yikes!

　I picked up Yumina with both hands and held her to my side. This is exactly what the princess is carrying. She starts running lightly.

Gravity.

　I reduce my weight and Yumina's weight to about half. If we got it too close to zero, we were too light and we were going to fall uncontrollably.

'Accel Boost.'

　He also used acceleration magic and body enhancement to create explosive speed. You can't feel any resistance or even a headwind even though you are running at this speed. It's the effect of the magical barrier of Axel. I thought it was somewhat like a sensory game. You're supposed to be running at breakneck speed, but you feel like you're in a different world.
　It's that kind of sensation, so Yumina in her arms was also watching the flowing scenery without being frightened by the speed.
　After a short run, the wilderness came into view. He stopped for a moment and let Yumina down.

'Search. The Bloody Club. Within a three kilometer radius.''
...completed the search. There's one to the southwest of here. Display.

　A map of the area is displayed on video in front of you. So that's where we are, and the crab is here. It's about a kilometer away.

'Fuyu-san, I just heard Sheska's voice...'
Hmm? Yeah, I'm using it for this guy's voice. Maybe it's obvious, but that guy's voice is mechanical and lacking in emotion. It's like he's not distracting me.

　He takes the phone out of his pocket and explains to Yumina.
　I pick Yumina up again and run in the direction of the crab. Soon, I see a large crab with a red shell, two pairs of four large scissors and four pairs of eight legs as well.
　It's big. It looks like it's about the size of a dump truck. Its carapace was blood-red with its rugged and rock-like protrusions. It looked like a king crab transformed into a vicious form. But the four scissors are unusually large, unlike the king crab's. It would be the end of the world if it was caught between the shears. The upper half and the lower half of the body would have to part.
　The Bloody Crab spotted us and turned his body to stand in front of us. He's buzzing and foaming at the mouth, but wasn't that a sign that the crabs that live in the water are suffering from lack of oxygen? Well, it's a trap to think that the common sense of the world over there is acceptable here. It's funny that crabs are in the wilderness, and it's not even close. If you don't switch those things, your life is in danger.
　I put down my Yumina and hold my weapon. Putting Brunhild into blade mode, Yumina pulls the Colt M1860 Army from her waist. As it is, she shoots out a series of paralyzing bullets towards the crab, but it couldn't crush the shell, and the effect of "Paralyze" didn't seem to have much effect. It seems that the magic resistance is strong. Probably it's hard for magic to work as well. It's only a target for red-ranked defeats.

'Earth Tangle, Earth Curse, Earth Bind.

　The soil underneath the Bloody Crab's feet tangled around each leg with the spell Yumina cast, slowing them down. It seems to work to some extent if the magic isn't directly targeted.

'Axel.'

　Without missing the opportunity, I use acceleration magic and in one fell swoop, leaping over the crab's head and descending onto its lumpy back. This magic I'm going to use now is also a magic that can be applied directly to the target, but it will probably be fine. I crouch down and touch my hand to the crab's back to activate the magic.

'Gravity.

　Gulp! And the crab bent its legs and crashed to the ground. I jumped down from my back and looked at the crab that had slowed down its movements.
　Hmm, once you activate Gravity, you can disarm or increase it as you wish.

''What did you do?''
'This guy's own weight has been magically multiplied many times over. His body is too heavy for him to move.

　Even though he was dragging his heavy body, he managed to add more magic power and weight to the Bloody Crab, which was trying to attack us. The scissors I was lifting fell to the ground and stopped moving. I think they've added a considerable amount of weight to it, but there's not a single crack in the carapace.

''...Fuyao-san, this crab is already dead, isn't it?''
What?

　Come to think of it, the bubbles that were buzzing out have long since disappeared. Strange bodily fluids were seeping out of every part of his body. Apparently, my internal organs couldn't bear the weight.
　'Gravity' to be released. The Bloody Crab didn't twitch. I went up to it and tapped it with my brunnhild, but there was no response. It seems to be just a corpse.

'It cleared up pretty easily, didn't it?

　Yumina looked up at the crab as she tucked the gun into the holster on her hip.

'The nice thing about this magic is that once you activate it, you can manipulate its weight at a distance.

　With a jerk, he picked up several pebbles on the ground and threw them in front of him after applying 'gravity'. Each one weighs over a hundred pounds before it hits the ground. Then a depression was created in the ground with a bump, and the pebbles I threw shattered.

''It's........amazing magic.''
'You might even be able to shatter Frase with this. The drawback is that it doesn't activate unless you make contact with it, but that might be solved by using this.

　I take my phone out of my pocket. I had once rounded up a bunch of bandits with 'Paralyze', which is activated only when you make contact with them. Maybe I could do the same thing with 'Gravity'. I stabbed the Brunhild in my hand into the ground.

'Search. Brunhild. Target locked. "Gravity... um, weighted double activation.
Target locked. Target locked. Activate Gravity.

　I pick up the Brunhild in front of me. It's heavier than usual. It seems to be working. The experiment was a success. This will be quite a weapon. I've heard that magic that can counteract the effects of magic exists in this world, so it's probably not a panacea.
　I deactivate Gravity and place Brunhild on my hip.

I have to bring this crab back for now.
''The killing part is a pair of scissors, but the guild will buy the rest of them as well. Do you want to sell everything?
'Hmmm, I think I'll keep one leg. I'll give it to Claire for her to take home. It's crab casserole today.
That's good.

　Once I stored it in the "Storage", I used the "Gate" to return to the guild in King's Landing at once.
　When I handed the lady at the reception desk the parts to be defeated, she rolled her eyes at me for being so quick, but she agreed with me when I explained the 'Gate' to her. In the meantime, these personal abilities in the guild are obligated to be kept secret by the staff. In other words, there's no need to worry about them being revealed. Although there might be some people who are suspicious of it.
　I take the Bloody Club I brought back from "storage" in the guild's courtyard and have it assessed. I stripped one of the legs off properly.
　The carapace, meat, and everything else was worth quite a bit of money. I get paid at the counter, along with the reward for defeating it. As usual, a stamp is stamped on the guild card with a pompompompom.

'With these points, Yumina-sama's guild rank has increased. Congratulations.''

　Yumina received the red guild card and smiled happily.

''So now you all have the same rank.

　Oh, I knew I was worried about one person being different. Oh, well. I feel like I'm out of the loop.
　Well, now all I have to do is go to Leafreth's bookstore and buy some more books. Hmmm, I've got more money than I thought I'd have, so I'll get some more books. ...in that direction. It's our business to have customers. Fortunately? I've got a very knowledgeable man in front of me.

"Uh, receptionist.
Oh, my name's Prim. What's that?

　I told him I was going to buy the book I just mentioned and asked him if he could pick up a similar book in a similar genre if it was okay with him.

'What? Does that mean you're getting that book in stock!
As long as they've got it in stock. The money was made on this latest round, so we're good to go.
Wait, wait a minute!

　As soon as she said that, she went to the same female guild staff member, talked about something, and wrote it down. Then she talks to another female staff member in the same way and writes it down again. After repeating this process for several people, she even spoke to a few female adventurers who seemed to be acquaintances of hers before coming back to me. Hey, business is slowing down.....

''Hey, everyone said they're all going to the 'Moon Reading' tomorrow if these come in! Please consider this!
'....Haha.......I will consider it positively.......'

I took the note that was handed to me and looked up to see glittering eyes from most of the women in the guild. Glitter? I don't feel like I'm giggling....　
　I left the guild and returned to the mansion for a while. I was about to head to the bookstore after sending Yumina off, but at the right time? Linse was having a meal on the terrace, so I also showed her the notes Prim-san had written for me.

''...You're going to buy all these, right?''
If you can get it in stock, that is.

　Linse took out a pen from her pocket and squeaked and added a few titles to some notes. ''Don't add more, don't add more.

''...You should definitely buy this one. The last volume just came out, so if you miss out on buying it, it will take you a while to get them all. It's a book that will be fought over when it arrives in the Monthly Reader.

　...Really? I'm not sure, but well, if Linse-san says so, then it must be so.
　At any rate, I thanked her and took the note and skimmed through the titles.

The Order of the Roses, all 15 volumes.
The Butler's Secret, all five volumes.
The Fallen Prince, Oath of Obedience, Volume 8
The Boy in the Cage, all six volumes.
The Sweet and Dangerous Embrace, 12 volumes.
The Burning Nocturne, The Two Who Cannot Return, vol. 5
Sweet Traps and Sorcerers, all 12 volumes.
The Immoral Groom, all 17 volumes.
The Rose-colored Magical, all 9 volumes.
The Master is Watching, 18 volumes.

　........can we really get it in? The titles that are lined up are breaking my heart. But it's not a situation where I can say that they won't be in stock now...
　Do you want to segregate these genres into a separate area to separate them from the other books? It's like a curtain, so you can't see the inside of the store, and you should put a sign that says "No one under 18 years old".... Then it's just like the adult section of a video rental store. Hmmm... I don't want to worry about this kind of thing.
　Well, it's not like I'm encouraging crime, or that I'm still healthy. .........healthy?
　I opened the "gate" to the Leaf Lease and transitioned, seriously considering giving the owner's position to Linse while moping and worrying about it.
