Chapter 178 – Unfolding Revenge [Continuation]

Also, the thing hanging around its neck like a muffler, is also a fairy’s body, and should an ordinary human look at it, rather than finding it strange, they will probably be consumed by its evil, unable to move an inch.

「『With this, that makes it the thirtieth body……, these batch too, using the fairy seed the 『XX Devourer』 skill also seems to be added nicely』」

The one who murmured so cheerfully, was a slime that seemed to have reduced about two-fold in size.

It went into the clothes that were scattered on the ground, and it once again took the appearance of a human and continued murmuring.

「『Now then, I wonder how many more bodies I can make』」

『『『『『GoegegebyobyoiAa……』』』』』

The newly born monsters continued to leave while causing tremors on the ground.

The monster watching their backs, looking at that spectacle as he laughs, even though he had already transformed his appearance, he looked even more of a monster.

☆

That day just as I expected, the guild master visited again even faster than he had stipulated.

『Is the party of adventurer Kaito-dono present here? I heard that they were staying in this inn……』

「……I see you’re finally here」

As I was fiddling with the junk I got from town on the bed of the inn where the light of the rising sun shines through, I heard such a voice coming from downstairs.

They were words that I had been eagerly waiting to hear.

『Such an uncouth bumpkin, why don’t you first of all announce from where you hail』

『Oh, please pardon me. I am a messenger from the guild. We have matters to discuss with your guests, so could I trouble you to please deliver the message so they could follow me back to the guild?』

『I see, if there is such a guest in our inn, I will be sure to deliver the message』

The voice of the old man from the inn that I could hear coming from downstairs, puts me in an even brighter mood.

An inn that properly protects customer’s information is utterly deserving of trust. And so I thought, that no matter what happens, I would like to make it so that this inn doesn’t get dragged into the mess.

I knew about the fact that the guild would send a messenger in today through the investigation net cast by Surakichi & Chuusuke.

Which is why today, since morning, everyone have been standing by in this room, doing as they please.

「A whole week huh, they really kept us waiting longer than I thought」

I had thought that it wouldn’t be strange if they sent word within three days.

If the guild master is a royalty liaison for discussions, then this situation can only be Leon’s handiwork.

I could already tell just from the fact that he was travelling alone to train as a warrior, but despite being a prince, he acts too hastily and recklessly. Considering the contents of the conversation with the guild master, I had thought that I would be summoned immediately but…….

(Then again, if I were to consider the preparations for the revenge, and the relaxation of Mai and Yuuto, then I guess it is just in time huh……)

They have been working hard in gathering information, and in preparation for the revenge in cooperation with Surakichi and Chuusuke.

The period was extended unexpectedly, but because of that, we took out sweet time to carefully work on the preparation, and both Mai and Yuuto too were likely able to let out some steam.

Since they came to this world, they have been deeply concentrating on their training with little to no rest, but I am glad that the two of them were able to take a little breather.

While Yuuto was active going downtown to visit bookstores, or enter into the dungeon to train at the shallow* floors of the dungeon, Mai on the other hand, never tried to even leave the inn, and stayed glued to my side, which was a little worrying.

I tried to observe for some signs of homesickness, but since there was nothing I could do if that were to be the case, so I tried to bear with some level of selfishness. Maybe because of that, she seems to be in a good mood recently so I guess all is well.

While they on the other hand were able to get lots of rest, I was dead tired of waiting though.

「If dear brother so wishes, this lovely sister of yours doesn’t mind if dear brother still wants to continue our debauched life a little while longer you know」

「Uh thanks, but no thanks, even now I think we have rested for far too long」

I expressed my grief towards Mai who said such with a playfulness.

This is weird, originally, it used to be Mai who remonstrate me about being languid though.

「Ahaha, but isn’t it fine. If things go as planned, then after this it will be even more difficult to take time to leisurely relax like this right」

And lastly, Yuuto intervened just like that, then came a knock on the door.

『Is anyone in, just now I was asked to pass on a message』

I tossed all the scattered junks I was messing around with into the round bag.

In the same way, Mai returned the Herbology* book she borrowed from Yuuto, and Yuuto as well, closed what appears to be a fairy tale book that he was reading. (TLN: Study of Herbal medicine)

「Alright, shall we go then, it is the continuation of the preparation」

When we got to the guild, we were immediately asked into a special room.

The person who was already waiting in the room, was just as I expected.

「Oh, I am so glad you are here, why don’t you take a seat over there first」

One was a seemingly good-natured old man who laughs nicely.

「……」

And the other, was a man who had a presence more than that of the apparent owner of the room.

「…………Ooh, I see」

A man with the head of a lion and a tough muscular build, Leon.
