Magic Gems Gourmet

The carriage carrying Ain and the others arrived in the woods near Wang Du, the destination, in about a few dozen minutes.

The weather was nice and the sky was clear today and the forest air was pleasant.

"We're here, Master Ain."

"Be careful. Come on in."

Have Chris take my hand. Ain't getting out of the carriage.

That's how Ain saw a beautiful forest with beautiful greenery and a bird's voice.

"It's a beautiful place. I don't think there's a demon."

"It's a beautiful place, but there are still demons. There are no demons at risk, but remember to remain vigilant."

Taking Chris' advice, Ein pulls himself together, too.

Because we don't know what's going to happen any more than it is where demons appear.

"Then I will lead the way, so please keep Ein going. Lord Chris, I'll leave you behind."

"Understood."

As Lloyd was to lead the way, Ain was to walk behind it. From the Ishtarika people who know about Lloyd and Chris, nothing could have been more reliable.

"By the way, Mr. Lloyd. What demons come out of this forest?

"Right. It's the Forest Rat, the Greater Egg, the Green Slime, and so on that often emerge."

I wasn't sure what kind of demon it was when I heard the name, but Chris supplemented the information to Ain.

Apparently Forestrat is a rat about 80 cm and prefers to act alone to collective action.

Greater eels seem to come in sizes greater than 1m, but are dull in motion and less aggressive. Just be wary, like when you chop an onion, it sprays a poison that makes you cry.

Green slime is a green slime as per the letters. Covered and smothered by an enemy perceived presence. Because your body isn't just big enough, you can scratch it with your hands and get out even if it gets covered, and the position of the demon stone and nucleus is clear and visible, so if you attack there, you can take it down lightly.

"Sounds safe and good for the first war."

Ein is basically a character he doesn't force. Opportunities like this one therefore feel just the right balance for him.

"If Ein is the knight of the castle, he has grown until he can already fight firmly. So even if it were us, we wouldn't be able to help. Of course, if it's a dangerous situation, I'll protect you."

"Thank you. You can fight with confidence."

"Ugh, yeah...... Master Lloyd. Apparently, it's not enough."

"Honestly, I was expecting some. At the point where you can do it with the knights..."

Two people looking at Ain from a little behind Ain in battle. What was in his eyes was Ein's appearance, which did not include the great eels or the Forest Rats.

When I first confronted Forestrat, there was something about how I was going to attack him.

Of course he looked worried about the first hand as well, even when dealing with the great eel.

It feels like you're already dealing with these demons with a patterned attack and not with them.

"All right, that's it. Yeah, the rats and the eels are gettin 'things. That's a hassle."

Yes, what Ein is saying was one of Ein's pleasures, the thoughts of the demon stones.

Rats and eels were honestly disgusting. Nevertheless, only the green slime seemed to be in Ain's mouth as well.

"Melon soda? I wonder. I can't wait to see why it's slime to melon, and soda, but well, it doesn't taste bad."

Ain't been happy with the taste I've felt in a long time. Can't you do too much melon soda from green slime? Though I thought about it, I wanted to enjoy this flavor first.

"There were a lot of flavors from Demon Stone over luxury, but the green slime is different. Isn't it fancy because it's slime?

By analogy, a child's favorite melon soda with colorants that could have been drunk in a family-like store.

It tasted like a so-called sweetener, and this sense of junk made Ein comfortable.

"Ha ha! Dear Ein, apparently you're not getting enough."

"Mm-hmm. I knew it felt different because I'm not your human opponent. Weaknesses are different, and you can't say they're similar when it comes to behavior."

"I guess. Because they will feel a danger to their lives and either defeat Ein or try to escape."

"Yep. So I'm learning a lot. Unlike training at the castle, the opponent's life is at stake, so even here, the response has changed."

It was easy to understand the aim of the weak demons or the demons Ein has fought for today.

Rats are bound to jump at Ain's neck, and when it comes to the big boar, they just sprinkle mild poison and try to escape on the tree.

And the green slime, though it was the fastest and most dangerous of these three types of demons, only came with an attack that covered me, so I should have attacked the demon stones and nuclei for that time.

"Sounds like the tactics were already in place."

As Chris says, Ain had already completed his own way of dealing with it.

It was never difficult because it was simple demons of movement.

"But I'm glad I'm as strong as this today. Don't get hurt. It's a good experience."

"That was more than anything. Let's go somewhere a little stronger next time."

"Please. You can count on both of us to make me feel safe."

Ein looks at the green slime that was nearby, saying so.

I was about to go home, but at the end of the day I was thinking about trying out some moves.

That's how Ein took out Katima's specially made nails.

"Oh, dear Ein, that's..."

"I thought I'd use this in practice too because it's a corner. Should I stop?

"No problem. Even if I were you, I'd like to see you actually use it."

Then I said I was glad, and from the root of that nail in my hand, I emerged an arm like a black tentacle.

"Well, this is the dark straw of the example"

"Even though it looks like this, it's straw, isn't it, Ain't it..."

Something tells me Chris is unhappy with the naming, but as Ein, on the contrary, he was unhappy with it.

All right, I'm thinking even if I had one of these awesome straws.

Ver.2 is currently under development and discussions continue between Katima and Ain on its direction as well.

"Okay. Eh... no!

The "dark straw" stretched out with a hanging voice pierced the body of the green slime, right next to the demonic stone.

And while breaking down toxins for humans, the action of absorption causes the contents of that demonic stone to be sucked.

"You've never seen a skill like this... I see, like a glowing bubble is the vitality or magic of a demon stone"

Green Slime tried to escape with a light tremor at the same time as the dark straw pierced him, but the pierced damage also caused him to stop moving immediately and just get sucked.

"I knew this move was a little scary, Dear Ein..."

"Really? Although it does look black and intimidating."

"No, it's more like you're smoking a demon stone."

It was quite noisy to see the black tentacles poking out of the boy's hand and sucking the contents out of the falling demon.

"Well, you can't deny it's intimidating. But isn't it a good thing that there are powerful moves, Lord Chris?"

"Yeah, well, that's great. You're right. It's best if Ein gets stronger."

The demon stone I smoked using the dark straw still felt like it was graded somewhere better than taking it out and smoking it.

It has been some time since I came to the woods, and as a result, Ain's hunting went well. Sometimes the sun was already setting. Ain't they talking about going back to the castle?

"Dear Ein, by the way. Was there any movement on the status?

"Looks like I changed if I was smoking some green slime. Apparently, the magic was really just a little bit higher."

I wasn't expecting any fluctuations in status until the hunt started. But as I continued to smoke the green slime, I confirmed the increase in the magic power of something that was trace.

"That's just hard. Thinking about it, it would still be best if you sucked on some weak demons' demon stones before Durahan's demon stones."

"Mr. Chris is right, but you have no choice anymore. If I have the skills I really want, I will manage to have a lot of demon stones for that demon."

"That seems to be the only way."

As Chris said, if you smoked weak demons before absorbing Durahan's demon stones, even demons like Green Slime, you would have had a lot of skills now. I can't help thinking about it that way, but now I couldn't help it.

"Then let's go back to the carriage, Master Ain."

"Okay. Thanks to both of us, we had a good hunt. Thank you."

Yes, Ain thanked me and replied that Lloyd and Chris were very sorry as they smiled.

"Speaking of which, Master Ain. It's a dark straw, but the nails used in it were pretty good."

Lloyd remembered about the dark straw. Katima's special claw for the dark straw, which was a strong offensive from Lloyd's point of view.

"That's true. Dear Katima, I'm talking about something special, but what the hell is it used for?"

"Do you want to know?

Ain't got a little laugh and want to hear it.

Lloyd, who was interested, replied to that, of course.

"The nails of the dragon species are plated with misrils. Katima said she forgot what a dragon it was."

"Oh, yeah, it was made of such expensive materials..."

Of course as Chris, I can't hide my surprises.

Even if it's just a dragon claw, it still has a fair amount of forehead for what is pinky. I was also surprised at the use of having misrills plated more than that.

"Mithrills will be applied to skills like absorption, which seek conductivity. I'm just surprised to hear of the dragon claws, but I didn't know you'd even have a misrill."

Mithril was an expensive material even in Ishtarika.

So much quality and strength that if you make it in gear, it's a thing for life, and the price is for life.

If you're making a thin sword like Rapier with an overall misrill, it's not uncommon to reach 10 million Gs with just the material.

In the case of Ain's nails this time, although the amount of misrills is not surprising in terms of raw materials for plating. Still, both Lloyd and Chris were shocked by the combination of dragon claws and misrills.

"Ask for romance! and Katima made it for me. Honestly, I'm sorry because it's a good amount of money, including demon stones..."

"Well, Master Katima, that's my hobby and I live, isn't it, Lord Lloyd?

"Ugh, that's right, Master Ain. And since Ein arrived, Katima has always seemed to enjoy herself, as much as she would be happy to be us."

"It would be helpful if you could say that. You're here all the time."

While I was explaining my nails, I even got to the carriage where the knight waited.

Finally, Ain thanked me again, and today's hunt is over. Given the results of today's hunt, Ain was a success because he had a good experience without injury.

"Lord Amur. Ishtarika's ship has arrived."

In the Duchy of Euro, a large Ishtarika ship finally arrived. That number is two.

Although the ship was smaller than Princess Olivia's, it was nevertheless bigger and more powerful than any other ship held by Euro.

"Okay. I'll try to pick you up too."

There should have been no disrespect in welcoming guests from Ishtarika.

That is why Lord Amur was to welcome the Ishtarikas directly.

Those coming from Ishtarika are also clerks to make final confirmations about the transaction, etc. Another fact-finding team to examine the guard knights and sea crystals. Many personnel have been mobilized.

As far as the civilians are concerned, the superiors have also been mobilized in Ishtarika.

"But when you get here, it really boils down to you. I don't think we can officially do business with Ishtarika."

"Mm-hmm. I can't say much about it, but I'm getting more realistic, too."

Two ships moored by the castle inhabited by Lord Amur.

I saw the intimidation and the building of the ship, and I understood the strength of Ishtarika.

"What's going on with Grand Duke Augusto?"

"Ha. We'll be there in a few days. When you arrive, you will meet Ishtarika and transfer to the ship."

"Okay, so it doesn't look like there's any special problem."

The Grand Duke of Augusto was slowly but on his way to Ishtarika.

"Lord Amur! The Ishtarikas are coming down, hurry up!

"Oh, okay!

Let's start by treating our guests from Ishtarika politely.

We have to end this deal with no problems, I thought so Lord Amur hurried to pick up the Ishtalika mission.
