I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~

Episode 158: Dragonfly Glasses Are Luxury Glasses

The day after I finished a crusade that seemed heavy for an adventurer under intermediate class. I came to the Adventurers Guild today to get a procurement request. My partner is Wu, as usual, and the reception is Tamara, as usual.

"Bug eyeballs?

When I asked Tamara what to get, she said it was the eye of a giant insect monster in the forest.

When asked what they used it for, they polished it and made it into eyeglass lenses. I see. Technically in this world, I thought the lenses weren't made of glass, but they were monster materials.

"Even a crystal with a high degree of transparency isn't big enough, and it's hard to be heavy."

"Hmm. Is that okay with the big spider's eyes?

"Hmm, the eyes of a big spider, are they a little small? It would be better if it were bigger."

I'm afraid that's not going to work. Big spiders can be hunted while they're hunting pigs, and I thought it would be easy to gather a lot of them at once because they're crowded. Well, it's about the size of a mid-sized dog, even if it's a big spider. My head is about that size, so I only have one eye about the size of a marble. That's right, can't you use it for glasses? What about a microscope?

If you're okay with the crystal, I hope John makes it worse. Instead of lens size, we can make single crystals that are house-sized.

But I often go to the big forest, but I've never seen a giant bug like that. Even around John, there are a few large ants and batters. That means we're living in deeper ground than we've ever been. I'm sorry to say, but I don't think this city's adventurers can get to such a dangerous area. I wonder why I've done this before.

"There used to be a lot of them in the Dark Forest. Say," Oochlogneyama ", from the end of the wings to the end, it was a dragonfly monster that was bigger than the human reached out both hands. Also known as" Goblin Eater, "he used to fly with a goblin on his feet."

A dragonfly monster. Sure, there were big dragonflies on ancient Earth, so it's no wonder you're in this world. It's a fantasy. It's also a fantasy where the bait is goblin. Eating the meat of a goblin that refuses even slimes is quite beneficial. I regret being gone.

"But she was weak to smoke and fainted as soon as she smoked. So I was overwhelmed by the glasses material, and about twenty years ago, I finally disappeared from the dark woods."

Oh, is it extinction by overfishing? It's like a leopard bat. Wherever and whenever we go, we may do the same thing.

I can't take care of Goblins because they're gone and they're harming themselves. This is what you deserve.

But would it be an endangered species, even if it survived the forest? It's unlikely that we can overtake them. Instead, it seems like we need to protect it. Once we know the ecology, let John create the environment and try artificial reproduction. Hopefully, glasses will be supplied regularly. It's a dragonfly glasses ranch.

We need to fully explore the Great Forest. No, we need to investigate. We need to talk to everybody.

"Well! I've already finished my vacation and started working alone!?"

"What is it, it smells like water. I could have helped Atai and the others carry their luggage."

"Honma. Uchi, I don't have a job all the time."

You know what? I got angry when I went back to the Mansion and asked everyone to help me. Speaking of which, I may not have said I had my day off back. Hunting in the dark woods was thought to be a normal walk. Actually, it didn't change anything except the type and quantity of prey. I don't remember forgetting to report, contact, and consult.

It seems that I don't have a job because my child servants work hard for me.

Cleaning up dishes, washing clothes and taking care of Pee are the children's tasks, but besides taking care of Pee, it was also Christella's work a while ago. They will still be in charge of all of them during the adventure, but they will work with the children while they are in the Mansion. Luca and Samantha are the main cooks, but everyone else is sharing, so the work is done quickly. I mean, it's a break at the corner, so take a break. What do you work for?

"Oh, everyday life is not a job. It's only natural to do things around you by yourself. I just love taking care of Mr. Beat. Ufufu"

"Take a good rest, Atashi! Plenty of naps!

"... we're all about the same as usual."

Unuu, housework is also a fine job. In the previous life, wives often heard the complain that "wives get angry if they don't understand how difficult housewives are." Because it is true in Heisei Japan, where there were convenient appliances, it should be more difficult in this world without them. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

And, Argna, you always sleep, so work as long as everyone is resting. [M] Oh, we all work without rest, so you sleep as usual. It's hard.

Well, that's until today. If you've had enough rest, you'll have to work from tomorrow!

In the case of ordinary adventurers, going to the big forest is important enough to prepare for death. Because powerful monsters wander around. In addition, huge trees block the view, and sticking out roots, branches, shrubs, and weeds limit scaffolding and make fighting monsters difficult. Even if you are well prepared, there is no guarantee that you will be able to go home alive. It's such a sorcery, for ordinary adventurers.

"At this height, I'll be fine. It's going to touch the tip of the tree."

"Oh no, this is another stunning view! Trees, trees, trees as far as you can see! It's like a green sea! I know what you mean by" tree sea "!

"Sasatsuji, are you sailing now? There's no clouds, there's a good wind. The voyage is going well."

"Umiyah, but I can't fish in a tree sea. Let's go to the real sea or the lake."

"... maybe a great ape can fish?

"Oh, it's dangerous to get out of there like that. We've brewed tea, so let's wait here until we arrive. Mr. Beat, would you like some soybean tea? There are also potato cookies."

Drive, no, cruise if you mean the sea. I am not nervous at all.

We are now flying south over the Great Forest in a carriage (...). Since the Dragon Cry Mountains have grown considerably, it may be time to cross the middle of the big forest. He has already stepped into a land without a trace. Well, if you're stepping in, you haven't stepped in, have you? Japanese is difficult.

I bought the carriage in Dolton. Large enough to have a little room for all of us and our luggage. I have about ten tons of truck carriers. Originally, they pulled six heads, but there's no horse because I use my magic to move them. Square beams circle around the top, and hang a leather cover enclosed on the outside of the carrier to become a roof over the rain dew. Each part of the body is reinforced with iron plates and is a bit rugged but sturdy.

On previous expeditions to Nolan and Jarkin, the ships that were stolen from the pirates were very useful. I was able to travel with plenty of loot and food. Perhaps the best loot was that ship. But this is a land trip, so I can't take a boat. There's no place to park. So I bought a carriage. When I think about walking in the woods carrying my luggage, it doesn't hurt this much. Well, if you can fly magically, the amount of luggage is fine.

As a matter of fact, the best reason to buy a carriage is to secure a place to sleep. My magic is all I need to move around, but magic disappears when I sleep, so I need a tent for my luggage. It's nice to have more luggage, but I'm a little worried about putting tents on the ground and sleeping in the dark. Not necessarily without poisonous worms, snakes, and monsters coming from the ground. In that regard, the carriage carrier is far from the ground, and safety can be ensured by surrounding each carriage in a flat plane when needed. It's a must for convenience and safety.

Normally, however, you can't take a carriage into the woods. There's no way. It's the only way I can float and fly. Really convenient, my flat magic.

"So where are you headed, Mr. Beat?

It's a river with a lot of water or a little bit of a swamp by the water.

"Fish kaya!?"

Answering Christella's question, Argna quickly followed my remarks. You only talk about fish these days, don't you? Did you enjoy your trip to the sea that much?

"Well, there will be fish, but the purpose is dragonflies. That's the larvae, to be exact."

"Dragonfly larvae... I'm ashamed not to know about dragonfly larvae. What kind of creature are you?

"I don't know either. I wasn't in the ocean."

And Atai.

"Oh, me too."

"... taro?

Well, surprisingly, we don't know about dragonfly larvae or goats. Well, she's a girl. You weren't interested in insects, were you?

"I know you! They're living in the water! A rival for the clams, eating small fish!

Oh, did Argna know? But I knew it was fish. I mean, rivals... let them eat like little fish. No, if it's a giant dragonfly larvae, the fish you eat would be quite the size. You might call it a rival.

"Yes, it doesn't matter whether it's a rival or not, Argna is right. Parents may find it hard to fly around, so they're looking for a child whose whereabouts are predictable. There will be parents nearby."

"I see! That's very knowledgeable, Mr. Beat!

Shut up, the dragonflies in this world are not necessarily perverted from the goats in the same way. But if they look the same, they should have some ecological similarities. There will be no big surprise.

Searching by the water is done with cameras floating in the air. Since the range that can be confirmed at once is not so wide, I am searching while shooting while moving. A map has been created and there are two birds per stone. My world map is expanding steadily.

Whoa, southwest to the swamp? Found the Fountain?! Was it the spring with the fairies in the swamp with the river children? No, where the stream ends, where it starts in the swamp, is the fountain? Well, either way. There aren't likely to be any rivers flowing out, so let's make it a swamp. I don't know the depth, but the area is quite large. With this, I think I can live with a giant dragonfly goat.

So, shall we start the investigation as soon as possible?
