As declared, Reefa came to the inn looking after me with a large package.
To a sudden guest, Mr. Merck gave his permission, bewildered, but Reefa, on the other hand, was surprised enough to raise her voice to the low cost of lodging in the inn that Mr. Merck had spoken of.
Mr. Merck was worried, "Should we wind up as rent, not as accommodation anymore," but put that down without asking.
Though I've become an adventurer, I need to work with all the gear and food.
"Besides, it's the next room..."
"Neighbor, I can calm down too"
I'm Aroma or something.
Mr. Merck said you were free to choose your room, but I didn't think you'd open the next room straight up and throw in your stuff when you found out about my room.
"This inn is cheap, the rice is delicious. Besides, if it's next door, we can meet, we can talk. Perfect"
"There's really no gap. That's very sensible."
"Huh, right?"
Schiff's convinced me in a weird direction...
What you're in is a familiar dining room. Reefa, who has finished carrying her luggage, mouths the tea that Mr. Merck has made for her.
"Kite, where's Lyla?"
"Oh, she said she's coming to ask for a demon crusade this morning"
"Because she seems quite capable. I'm sure the requests are more challenging than ours."
"But we're talking about Rank Silver."
Speaking of which, adventurers are sequenced by something called rank.
The sequence is divided into bronze silver gold blacks, where runaway adventurers like me and Reefa, or people who never get a dangerous request, are "Rank Bronze".
'Rank Silver' is what the Alliance requests to deal with ferocious demons and requests to escort dignitaries.
'Rank Gold' will be involved in more dangerous demons on it, requests involving royalty and important figures
On top of gold, they say 'Rank Black' is the highest position, but there are few in that sequence across the continent, and besides, they haven't even published their names, so they're recognized as just having that rank.
"Does Reefa want to rise to the top rank?"
"Yeah. Because if you go up there, you can fight that strong demon. But I'm told Silver will be up in no time."
"Really?"
"Rather, silver and bronze appear to be, technically, of the same rank. People who don't need to go up there do their job safely in bronze, and those who want to make money and go up there go up to silver."
So, if you can just put it in silver, you mean you can be.
"In the meantime, I have to do my request now"
"Right. I think we'll start with that."
I just got my goal, and I'll carry the cup in my mouth, too.
I'm surprised there's such a thing as tea in different worlds, but it's interesting because its taste is subtly different.
No, even though I didn't drink so much in the original world.
"Speaking of which, I don't know what Kate can do"
"... oh, I didn't explain it either"
I don't know if we were floating around being adventurers with each other or simply forgetting, but I thought it was a strange story to realize this now.
Again, we made a request together.
"I didn't know much about your magic either, and now is a good time to explain it to each other."
"Then you should try it in the back yard of the inn. Lord Merck's going to be pissed off if we do it here."
Nodding at Schiff's suggestion, me and Reefa, who took their seats, move to the back yard of the inn.
The backyard isn't that big, but there's just enough room to practice alone, so it's a great place to practice yourself.
When I move there, I ask Lime to turn me into a stick first.
"I'll explain first. As you may know, my battles will be fought with the help of Schiff and Lime and the demon."
"My supporting magic, support with lime deformation, and kite herself fighting with an enhanced body is fundamental"
"I knew you weren't like a regular Tamer. What can you do with Schiff's assisted magic?"
Shiv, who turned into a hat and moved to my head, answers Reefa's question.
"It's three things: flesh strengthening, flaming, electric shock granting."
"Can I do it too?"
"It's possible, but it won't be as effective as Kite's, and there's only one subject that can be enhanced, per supportive magic,"
"What do you mean, not as good as Kate?"
"Hmm, a little speculation comes in, but this has to do with kite's lineage - pure demon magic. Magic is restored via my Supporting Magic, and interference with him triggers his own magic and reacts, increasing the effectiveness of Supporting Magic to more than double."
……?
"Which means that Kate's magic works too well with supportive magic via me using his magic"
"... I see. I know. You know what, yeah."
Oh, you definitely don't get this.
I can't help it because I only understand about half of it.
"And Lyme can change that body quickly by sucking on my magic."
"Cu!"
Lyme, who sucked my magic, turns into a long sword.
"Like when you fight Rick, you can move like a creature and let them attack you, or you can stretch like a rope"
"In addition, it is possible to increase Attack by granting Flame and Thunder Strike to Lime"
And Schiff wraps the flame around his long sword.
Fire powder flies from the burning sword and heat is transmitted through the air.
Although my abilities as they stand were like this, Reefa confirmed it with a subtle look on her face as she put her finger on her chin.
"Somehow, Kite is nothing like Tamer we know. Ordinary Tamer feels like letting the user demon fight and give instructions, so Kite is kind of weird"
"Change..."
The way you say it.
He's deviating from the general Tamer. I have a sense of consciousness.
"I'll teach you my magic next time."
"Oh."
"My pedigree is a shadow. They can mediate shadows and do things..."
That's kind of a vague way of putting it.
Schiff also wondered, tilting his neck as he returned from his hat to the black cat.
"Don't you understand yourself?"
"Magic has recently begun to practice, so I can only manipulate the movement to the shadows I have seen and my shadows"
With that said, Reefa turns her gaze to the shadow of a tree planted in her backyard.
As the shadow at her feet swayed, her body was sucked into the shadows as she fell to the water.
In the next moment, he appeared from the shade of a tree.
"Like this. We should be able to do a lot more, but not now."
"Short-range metastasis via shadow? Unlike Kite, who goes in and attacks, he can be used as a handkerchief."
"The way you put it, I sound like a brain muscle."
Is that out of sight?
"And in the meantime, you've figured out that both Kite and Reefa can use each other's magic."
"This makes it easier to collaborate and stuff."
And I was outspoken.
I don't know, should I think more about fighting?
When I think about that to Schiff, who looks at me with a flicker, I feel something like a gaze from somewhere.
This is the gaze of a small animal……!
"Mm?"
When I turn my body towards the person I feel, I notice a white dog peeking this way from around the entrance to the backyard.
No, is that a dog? Shiba Dog...? I feel sharp in the face for it.
"Huh!?"
"Ah."
White dog with my eyes? frightened and surprised, he pulled his head in and escaped from the spot.
A familiar feeling in the world you were in, that you could get away with being scared.
Laughter creeps up unexpectedly at the experience I've long forgotten.
"K, F, Fhahahaha......"
"Ka, kite, what's wrong all of a sudden!?"
"Wow, laughing, crying...!?"
After all, my animal hates my physique, which seems to be alive and well in this world.
This is what I did, even though I was heartbeating that I might be able to play with dogs in different worlds.
"I made up my mind. Next, use the dog demon to become a demon."
"I have no idea how you got to that decision!?"
Swearing so hard in my heart, I dreamed of a day when I would touch a dog in this world.
