Chapter 737 – Ep.735 Demon Continent
“Action or inaction?”
[ … ]
For the first time, Rita nodded instead of answering my question.
“I’m asking just in case. “It’s not like someone attacked you or anything, right?”
[I think it would have been easier to talk about if that was the reason. ]
From that one answer, I was able to easily infer why the monks working in the inner castle were incapacitated.
[So, it looks like we have to go back to Naejeong to take care of things. ]
“Okay. OK.”
There are guards guarding the outer castle gate and monsters roaming around the outside of the castle. She said she felt like she had to go back and even asked for my understanding, because the case wouldn’t be resolved unless she went in person.
‘Well, I roughly expected it to turn out like this.’
Rita, who had her face close to my ear, stepped back, and I also got up from the sofa.
“Do I need to go urgently?”
[It’s not that bad, so let’s walk comfortably. ]
“Okay, then.”
I said to Rita, trying to pat the heads of Kuriri and Kuroro, who were still kneeling on the floor and looking up at me, but then withdrew her hand.
“Please explain that I need to change seats.”
[ Yes. ]
Immediately after that, a conversation that I still couldn’t understand continued for a moment, and we left the room and walked back to the inner room.
**
[I will resolve the matter as quickly as possible and return. ]
Rita, who had walked me through her inner gate and into the pavilion, turned around and ran out of the pavilion before I could reply.
‘Well, I wouldn’t have used it openly in a place like a hallway.’
Until you pass through the inner gate, isn’t the inside of the palace a sea of water? … Well, I’ve imagined something like that, but it seems like goodness exists for them as well.
‘The real problem is…’
I slowly turned my head and looked at Kuriri and Kuroro who were quietly standing behind me.
No matter how many times I look at it, it has mysterious blue skin and vertically slit pupils like those of a reptile. And a pair of horns growing on both sides of the head.
“Would you like to follow me?”
“Huh!!”
“… !!”
The one whose eyes were slightly sharp, the one who had just answered was Lili, and the one who nodded a little timidly was Roro.
Fortunately, the two, who looked alike but had a slightly different vibe, followed me diligently.
So I took them with me and stopped at the 9th floor.
It wouldn’t have mattered if I brought it in on the 10th floor, but Siran really disliked having the body odor of an unfamiliar woman in the bedroom, so it was natural for me to think of Siran rather than the girls standing behind her.
And like the bedroom, this was also an area where dreamers did not visit unless it was Rita.
‘Well, it’s a worthy place.’
A portrait of the third sister and statues modeled after her are hung on the walls and in the hallways.
In fact, it was a place that even the parties concerned did not pay much attention to, and since magic engravings were engraved on not only the paintings but also the statues and decorations, management itself was unnecessary.
‘This should be enough.’
It’s a location where you can see the stairs directly in front, so if someone comes, they’ll be able to notice right away.
Of course, there is nothing we can do about someone like Ravel.
“Shall we sit down?”
“… ?”
“…”
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Roro, looking relatively timid, whispered something into Lily’s ear.
Slurp.
When Roro fell, the two knelt on the soft, soft carpeted floor.
I also had no interest in standing and talking, so I sat down with my butt in front of them. However.
“Omg!!”
“… !!”
When I sat down, they both looked surprised and suddenly bowed their heads, which were still intact.
‘… Surely, that’s okay?’
Rita said that the reason they didn’t sit on the sofa with me a little while ago was because they recognized me as a higher being.
If so, that may be the same reason why the women who were kneeling just as before bowed their heads as soon as I sat down on the floor and were at eye level.
‘It’s been a while since I’ve done some lower body exercises.’
In the current situation where proper communication is difficult, I did not have the confidence to properly tell him not to do so, so I chose to get up again.
A glance.
Is it because I heard the sound of clothes rubbing against each other as I got up?
I could see Kuriri turning her head and squinting at me.
Clap clap──!!
It seemed like he would literally jump out of his seat when I told him to get up, so I tried to get his attention by clapping his hands.
“”… ?””
It was more effective than expected.
The two of them raised their heads in surprise, saw that I had woken up, and then stood up again while secretly observing my gaze.
“Kuriri.”
“… ?!”
When she pointed with her finger and called her name, Kuriri, who was pointed out by her, kept blinking her eyes with a shocked look on her face.
Next, I called Kuroro’s name, who was secretly looking at me expectantly.
“Kuroro.”
“Yes, that’s right. “It’s me, Kuroro.”
“Me too!! Kuriri!!”
Kuriri follows Kuroro introducing himself and energetically announces his name.
‘Roro seems to know more words than Lili.’
Although he was timid, the calm atmosphere seemed suitable for conversation if he put it in a good way.
‘The problem is how much you can understand…’
To put it a bit extreme, an opportunity to get rid of Rita as naturally as today may never come again.
So it was necessary to make the most of today’s opportunity.
‘… I hope we can communicate well.’
**
“Uh, sorry!!”
“We… Fool…”
Kuriri is struggling with her arms and doesn’t know what to do, and Kuroro is looking at them while spitting out words that seem to blame themselves.
As you can see from these two’s reactions, I am very frustrated right now.
‘Who would have thought that what I’ve shown so far would have been the maximum? …’
It means literally.
The common languages they knew were all very basic.
I’m hungry, eat, I’m full, I’m sick, please help me, get up, sit down… Well, basic things like this.
‘… What could be your fault?’
I tried to talk for about an hour, but I was only briefly disappointed by the result of all the communication errors.
I walked up to the two, who were very depressed because of me, and patted their heads, being careful not to touch their horns.
“Ah, uh…”
“Punishment… ?”
“No no.”
Corporal punishment.
I don’t know if I said it with the correct meaning in mind.
“Consolation. It’s okay. It’s okay. It’s okay. Ah.”
“Yes… !!”
“… Are you okay.”
As if she liked my touch, Kuriri didn’t nod her head and just made a loud noise, and Kuroro also kept his head still and just answered.
‘What… Still, it’s cute.’
Each time they patted their heads like some kind of large dog, their faces gradually relaxed.
As expected, I have no choice but to teach them how to speak, with Rita interpreting for them.
When I first formed a relationship with the girls in her canyon city, I planned to teach them the common language of the continent just for fun. However, after arriving at the capital, Lady Ravel’s attitude of hiding something and the suspicious atmosphere of the city kept bothering me.
So, despite being outsiders, I thought I would ask my two followers to look into the atmosphere of the city and hear a little about what they know about things outside the capital…
‘I didn’t know we couldn’t communicate this much.’
The very moment when I was just smiling and stroking the cute two’s heads while waiting for Rita to return.
A memory that had been buried deep in my mind flashed! It occurred to me.
A new convenience feature unlocked upon promotion to Deputy Manager.
But with a surcharge.
‘No, now is not the time to discuss such things.’
The existence of a contribution store, where necessary items are posted according to the situation of the dispatched employee as a formal letter, came to mind.
I stopped stroking the two people’s heads and quickly called up the system window.
And I clicked on the [Contribution Exchange] Located right next to the ★Donation★ item that I had been ignoring until now.

Looking at these products again, the prices are ridiculous.
However, considering the performance, the price was understandable.
‘My contribution now is 5,000.’
It was the total amount of my contribution, such as the skin obtained from Petrmira and Nuit in the Kingdom of Goldias and the blood obtained by donating unknown black lumps.
First, I looked at the products carefully again.
‘Honestly, I don’t need anything except the testicles.’
I put my finger on the update button to confirm that it was okay to replace the product once.
Renewal available for free only once, not once a day.
After that, there is a scary button that deducts 10 contributions at a time.
I can make up for the lack of contribution by begging seniors for things to donate, so I hope it comes out as a valid hit…
‘Please interpret, interpret, interpret!! ‘Sis!!’
I prayed earnestly to Sith and pressed update.
