High School Hack and Slash Chapter 72 Part 2
「Wahhahaha! This is the golden field said in legend!」
Mai, who is in a strange state of tension, is rolling around on top of the gold coins.
I’d like her to redo it after putting on a blue gown or something.
「I think you’re getting too excited.」
「Rather, are we seriously going to bring these back to the above ground? If we’re not careful, the gold market price might collapse, though….」
「I suppose they also have antique value to them. Selling them might prove to be a challenge, though.」
At the very least, I think the means of liquidating them at the academy are nonexistent.
I wonder how much sen it would be worth if we put it up for trade in the purchasing department.
「This golden and shiny sword is too dull~.」
「However, gold may be soft, but its conductivity for magical energy is great, you know.」
「Accessories are a poor taste.」
「Like some nouveau riche.」
This group seems to not have much interest in treasure.
Well, it is not an item that can be used for dungeon conquest, so for the time being, why don’t we just bring it back and distribute it afterwards?
「I am a little lost for words-meow. It’s the first time I’ve seen such a rare item in the dungeon-meow.」
「… The Legend of Buried Treasure …」
「I guess I’ve heard of it. If I remember it correctly, I believe it was a『Lore (Legend)』 type raid quest? It’s said that they found a sen-ryo-bako(1000 ryo box) in the『Origin of the Kiun Castle』.」
「You can’t eat gold…. Nomnom.」
Doggy-senpai, stuffing her cheeks with teriyaki salamander, seems the least interested.
Her engle’s coefficient seems to be high, so I think stuffing her wallet is also important, though.
Well, once again, after finishing the dungeon conquest, we return to the base and hold a loot settling assembly.
The countdown in the Interface has resumed, so if the display is correct, it would be time to log out tomorrow morning.
I get the feeling that Interface-san annoyingly asked me for confirmation in the middle of the night, but I was asleep, so I don’t have much recollection of it.
I don’t quite get it, but I’m sure nothing can go wrong if I leave it to Yuki-chan.
Come to think of it, she wished for a refrigerator, so I think I’ll buy her one at the appliance store on Student Street as a thank you.
There seems to be those huge ice rooms, but she seems to want a small one that can be put in the room.
「By the way, do you know what happened to the Senryo Box at that time?」
「Apparently it was traded at the academy. Though, the raiders who conquered it were most likely paid in sen….」
The academy local currency, 『Sen』, naturally cannot be used outside of the academy.
If you stay on as a temporary teacher even after graduating, I guess it would be a different story, but….
The ownerships of the items produced in the dungeon, which is part of the academy’s facilities, are basically said to be on the academy.
As a matter of fact, they are owned by the respective students, but they are not allowed to be taken outside the academy.
「Senpai senpai, there’s something I’d like to talk to you about, but… Care to talk it over there?」
「Is this a trickery-meow?」
「My oh my.」
Seiichi, with an unscrupulous faint smile on his face, goes and moves to a table in the corner, taking along Black Honey’s vice president and the others.
I hear him saying something about a special magic bag such and such, but let’s pray that he doesn’t get his tongue pulled out by Lord Yama.
「Looks like we ought to try having a gold coin bath.」
「Right, right.」
「Gold, gold, glitter, glitter.」
Some of the Black Honey members are hitting it off with Mai and are also enjoying themselves.
I wonder if women like shiny things after all.
「Tetsu-kun, you’re not well. You should eat some meat.」
「… Yes.」
Tetsuro-senpai, who has been listless as if he has been dried out since this morning, remains plopped down on the table, withered.
I hope he gets a good night’s rest tonight.
◇ ◇ ◇
It was a grand party.
A totally meat festival.
As expected, given the amount of meat we secured, the plan was to use up the meat kinds that couldn’t be cured.
For better or worse, we were intending to stuff them all into my Item Box and bring them back, but if too much time passes, even monster meat will normally go bad.
Even if we share it with everyone in Asagi-sou, it’s unknown if we can process it all.
Well, not only to be eaten as ingredients, but they can also be fermented and used as organic fertilizer, so said Akehi-senpai.
She’s the type of Senpai who doesn’t know moderation, so I get the feeling that she’ll grow some crazy monster tomatoes.
Looking at the sky from the rooftop of the main building tower, there spreads a white night with a starry sky, no different from when we logged in.
I have a feeling that we’ve been in this world for a considerably long period of time, but once tomorrow comes, I guess we’ll be back to our usual academy life.
There were some close calls, but I think it was a good battle.
The creepy Doll-kun, who has been here from the beginning as a preceding visitor, is sitting on the jagged wall and swinging around its feet.
I’m a little curious, but just what in the world is this Doll-kun, I wonder.
I’ve often seen him walking around the interception base as he pleases and being held in the arms of Pattsun-senpai, but he doesn’t seem to be her possession or anything.
According to Pattsun-senpai, the design is so cute that she seems to want one of her own.
Just in case, I checked with Mikan-senpai and the others, but they said they had no recollection of making such a homunculus or golem.
Doll-kun waves his hand as if to say, 「Don’t mind it」.
Well, it does have a name, but I don’t care as long as it’s harmless just as a Null MOB.
「Hmm….」
Looking down, it’s not that I don’t feel that Shizuka and the others are looking for me, but I would like to say that I am by no means running away from them, but rather, I am just looking for a change of pace.
That’s why, there’s no hidden meaning in me ending up jumping with a start at the footsteps echoing from behind me.
「In standard time, good evening, I presume?」
The one who comes up on the rooftop is not a pursuer, but Lady Guy-senpai.
Remains floating a gentle smile on his face, he stands next to me.
「Looks like you’ve saved Asura-chan this time as well, huh. Thank you.」
「No, the same to you.」
We have also been saved by Lady Guy-senpai.
It was exactly him putting up his body and hindering the goddess during our encounter with her that had earned us time to get back on our feet.
「Mind if I ask you one question? What do you think of Asura-chan?」
Hmm, Doggy-senpai is a so to speak decisive battle weapon.
In normal battles, she seems to have low fuel efficiency and quickly ends up becoming all withered, but in boss battles, she’s the type that eats everything up with her overwhelming power.
Her personality is brazen, and she is a glutton who can’t read the air.
But she’s not unlikeable.
She is such a lovable Doggy-san.
「… I see. At least you don’t hate her, right. Then, can I ask you to take Asura-chan in as one of your comrades, I wonder?」
Another considerably philosophical talk it is.
He’s telling me to take Doggy-senpai, the president of Black Honey club, into Adept Orders, I wonder if that’s what it means.
The strategy of exiling Doggy-senpai and usurping the club by making himself the club president.
「That’s not it. I mean I’m asking to you put Asura-chan under your patronage as well.」
「I don’t understand what that means, though.」
「Let’s see… Touma-kun, do you have any idea of the term『Seven Sins』, I wonder?」
I wonder if it’s the name of a band popular among the trendy youths.
