185 Episode 185 "Dungeon and Newcomer Training Strategy Meeting" by Master, Cheat Wife, and Best Friend (+ Saint).txt (2/2)

The image on the screen was a ...... disk-shaped, silver plate.

Delilira: 'This is what Delilira made when she was a saint, to help people who were under a curse. This silver disc has a purification technique built into it.

The saint said.

Delilira: 'When you enter the cursed place, you should activate this silver disc. That way, you can suppress the effects of the curse for a while ...... for about three months. You'll be able to bring anyone who's undergone 'rookie training' back to their senses.'

Nagi: 'Thank you. Saint.

Delilira: 'Don't worry about it. It was originally Mr. Delilira who brought you guys into this.'

The spirit saint shrugged her shoulders.

Delilira: 'I don't like to leave it to others. But with you guys, I don't have to worry. We'll make sure you're paid accordingly, please. In the name of Saint Delilirah, the defender of this land.

Nagi Laetitia: ”'Got it!'

”Koto, koto.

Delilira: 'Oh. It's Golem-kun: ...... hmmm, hmmm'

The saint is nodding over the communication (Cecil says).

Delilira: 'I heard that little Sonia the mermaid is awake. I'll go talk to her. I'll keep you posted.'

And so we finished our correspondence.

...... Phew.

Bringing my attention back to reality, I relax in a chair in the living room.

On the chair on the other side of the table, Aine, Leticia, Raphilia and Cutlass are sitting on the other side of the table.

The contents of my conversation with the saint should have been conveyed to everyone via Aine.

Let's just talk about it and come up with a concrete plan.

Our objective is to investigate the Demon Dragon Dungeon.

If there are residual influences, like a curse, I want to purify it with the power of a saint.

It would be a problem if the 'rookie training' went out of control any further. The people involved in the training are also messing with the port city of Ilgafa. We have our own home there. We don't want to be interrupted in our peaceful life.

Besides, the lord is also Iris's father, and the new lord, Royeld, is a good boy.

...... If you want to 'train' separately, you can go ahead and do it on your own. But I'd like to get the mermaids back to their homes .......

'In this world of black labour, I think it's good that there's a race of people who just play and sing.

Yes, that's right. The mermaid should definitely be returned to her home.

That's what I'm talking about, Master. I know what I'm doing!

I agree with you ...... and so does Fi Fi, Fihn.

It's .............

Aine and Raphilia, Cutlass and Leticia are also nodding.

They're all very kind, after all. It's like they feel sorry for the mermaid.

...... All of them together, though, are somewhat red-cheeked.

”Holy shit!　Lord. I have a complaint!

And just as I was thinking, Reggie jumped out of the magic sword.

He shook his red twin-tails and jumped onto my lap.

'Why!　I'm in detention!　I am your beloved sword!　It is mentally distressing to be left behind when the Lord is bent on a dangerous battle!

'It can't be helped. Leggy in the spirit body gets affected by the curse.

If you have a physical body, you can lift the curse of the land by stimulating that side. I heard that the slave of the merchant who fought us also recovered a little bit after a good night's sleep.

But for people like Delilira and Reggie, who don't have a body, it's very difficult to lift the curse once their minds are attacked. That's because they can't give stimulation to their bodies.

Delilira-san doesn't have a physical body, and Reggie's body is an alter ego made of magic power, so to speak.

I can't take Reggie with me because I don't know if I can stimulate the sword itself to recover──and I don't know if I can do that. This time, I have to take an ordinary sword with me.

”You're like my family too, so how can I take you to a place where you're going to be cursed──in other words, sick?

...... I'm weak when you say that, but ......

You'll be there with Letitia and the others, backing us up. Please.

I stroked Reggie's forehead.

Leggy's cheeks puffed out on my lap for a while, but...

That's just the way it is.

Do you understand?

Then reinforce it so that it can back up my Lord and me.

Reggie looked me straight in the eye and said, ”You see, you installed the 'dressing aid' on me before, right?

'See, you installed the 'dressing aid' on me before, didn't you?　I want you to change that to 'Chii and Sukiru'.

Okay.

I said, and patted Reggie's head.

Indeed, it's about time for Leggy to strengthen it, right? I've gotten used to 'rebuilding' magic items.

'Raphilia-san, since you've got more skills, why don't you try 'rebuilding' them too?

Aine said.

'It might be more useful if we enhanced that 'protective color cloak'.

...... I see.

Strengthening Reggie and Raphilia, huh?

Then I'd have to use 'Ability Reconstruction 《Skill Structure》' in succession. Maybe I'll be able to level up. I haven't leveled up recently.

'...... I see you have that method.

I remembered the 'Ability Crossing (Skill Crossing)' that I used before.

That was a skill that increased when my 'Ability Rebuilding' level was raised, a skill that was used up. Using that, me, Cecil and Rita combined to create a huge magic of purification.

According to the saint, those who possess the Divine Power have the ability to resist curses.

And the ”Sacred Power” can also be used to lift the curse.

If you are able to awaken to the 'Crossing of Ability' once again, you may be able to cleanse the 'Newcomer Training' scene at once.

「「「「「 I see. ！！！！」」」」」

When I said that, everyone clapped their hands.

That's what I'm talking about. It's amazing.

In that case, I'll give you some backup skills.

Now, to help you work up a sweat, Fynn and I are going to prepare a bath.

I'm excited.

Hmm. Let's see it!　Elf girl!

That's why it was unanimous.

I don't know if the Crossing of Powers will ever wake up, but let's do what we can for now.

I've been to a certain place near the resort.

How many 'quasi-braves' have you made?

In one of the rooms, the man said.

'I'm on a tight schedule. Report quickly.'

'There are three success stories of 'rookie training'. Two of them, I think it's safe to say, are 'second only to the brave.'

''Totally, real summoners are hard to use and unbeatable. The guild's fee for using them has also increased. Either way, we should get some new people to help us out.

Oh, come on.

By the way, how's the search for the mermaid's abode going?

...... since the mermaids outside have stopped singing.

”The 'cleansing song' works on the ship - to my room? Didn't I tell you I'd build you a mansion with a pool?　You know, sub-humans have no idea of the value of things.

Sooner or later... you'll be thanking God for His mercy.

''I'm sure that's true. I'm sure the royal family will appreciate it if we produce many ”quasi-brave” people. Now──that's why we're beginning to be linked to the royal family through our evaluations.

The evaluation...

What's the matter with you?

No.

The hooded shadow shook his head.

''In any case, I have sworn my allegiance to you. By Wabe, to you, the one who will eventually defeat the Demon King, you...

Eventually, the sound of the waves drowned out the conversation between the two men, who began to whisper.

Spirited calls could be heard in the distance. The man nodded in satisfaction.

It's only now that we get through this, and we'll get stronger. It's obvious.

............

The shadow of the hood does not answer.

Eventually, the wind picks up and begins to slowly rock the boat, which is anchored offshore.

'...... that happens a lot. If we get through this, we'll be stronger.

While saying the same words as before, the man tilts his glass.

The ”trainees” crammed into the ship - in his subjective view - with plenty of compassion.
