I Shall Survive Using Potions!

Break up with everyone in the Hunter's Guild and act alone.

So, the first thing to do is to seize the inn.

If I'm late and I can't get a good place to stay and sleep with junior hunters or something, I won't be able to put my eyes to it.

Well, I told everyone that the women can stay with peace of mind, so if they can hold the room before it's full, there's no problem.

I was scared to believe unconditionally in the common sense of hunters regarding the safety of women, so I checked with the merchant and took the back, so I was relieved.

Of course, I can't stay in a luxury inn where there is a bath by a saintly lady and a witch in the wild who is supposed to be clean and poor, so it is a reasonable accommodation.

Sweat and waste are stored in an item box, so you don't have to take a bath.

Rayko taught me how to do this.

Why can't I think of a newcomer, Reiko, even though I've been using it for a long time!

... well, because I'm Japanese, no matter how clean my body and clothes are, I take a bath when I put them in...

This is not the first time I've stopped in town.

The activity as a wild witch is performed in small villages, rest spaces on streets, orphanages outside of towns, and in large towns, people pretend to be ordinary people, so it's their first time in town as a witch.

Usually, I changed into regular clothes before entering the town, but this time I didn't have time to change with the merchants and escort hunters, and I didn't intend to change from now on due to my convenience (...).

Until now, I stopped in town for sightseeing, eating local food, buying souvenirs for everyone, sleeping in a decent bed, and other activities unrelated to my activities as a wild witch.

When you work in a big town, your stay will be extended, and you'll see temple officials, aristocrats, and hunters trying to heal their injuries for free.

No, I'm trying to sell my name, but it's a strategy that has brought a reputation to Jiwajiwa and the King's City, not to be surrounded by regional cities and eaten.

Therefore, we are only doing short-term activities in small villages, roads, or out-of-town orphanages, and we are immediately leaving the scene. Hit-and-away, huh?

I won't stop by the Hunter Guild or the temple-related facilities, so unless I stumble upon people elsewhere, I have almost no fear of finding out who I am as a wild witch.

Besides, even if you meet me as a shrine maiden, you have a strong impression of the shrine maiden's clothes. Even if you look at me in your personal clothes, you will not be able to connect with me as a shrine maiden in your head. Even if you do a little bit of lowering, your impression will change a lot...

No, it would be perfect if you made it completely different by disguising your face (face change), but you don't have to hide your identity that much. There's nothing wrong with Edith stopping by town, and it's unnatural not to stop by town at all.

So, it would be nice to leave the town before something strange comes along, even though the identity is found out occasionally.

But now, she's still in her usual sorceress clothes, and like when she's acting as a wild sorcerer, she's stretching her spine and walking majestically with her face up.

... if you've ever seen me as a wild witch before, you'll know at a glance.

Also, even if no one has ever met me as a wild shrine maiden Edith, if I don't get close to a shrine maiden that I haven't seen in this town, and if I don't act as a shrine maiden in this town, it will be easy to connect with the "Wild Shrine Maiden Edith touring small villages and orphanages" that seems to be spreading rumors already.

And the reason why I entered the town this time in shrine maiden clothes.

... yes, of course, to intercept.

It seems that they will almost certainly send in a second attack squad, an attack from the master who employs those soldiers...

To do that, we need a lot of preparation.



"... are you inviting me?"

Yes, absolutely, my Lord.

Yeah, you're here.

It's from the lords who rule this town and several surrounding villages.

Those merchants and escorts will be touching me around, and it seems that my name is selling as a "mysterious wild witch."

And although I usually do charitable activities such as cooking out in orphanages and poor villages, sometimes there are rumors that I exercise my modest healing power as Goddess's mercy (...) to the injured and sick...

That's why I thought you were coming, an invitation from a local nobleman here or a shopkeeper.

The power of healing is not my power, but just to mediate everyone's wishes with the goddess, and the effect is not much different from that of a good doctor or pharmacist.

... to the point that it's not worth the trouble to get me...

However, although it is possible to do the same amount of treatment by other means, the name-value effect of "Goddess's help" and "Goddess's miracle" is great...

When it comes to the story that the illness was cured after receiving the blessing of the goddess, the daughter of the king over there becomes the "goddess blessed, protected by the goddess, loved, and the daughter of the king" rather than the "daughter who has managed to cure the illness" when treated by a doctor or pharmacist.

... that's right, I don't want you to be a doctor or a pharmacist, but a goddess.

Besides, I could ask the goddess not only to heal my injuries and illnesses, but also to give up...

The merchants and the guards didn't shut up.

So you think it's good for me, and you've spoken everywhere about me coming to this town.

About my past activities, about being abducted by some nobleman or rich man, and about preventing and protecting them...

It will help me protect myself, and it will be an advertisement that we have protected the Apostle of the Goddess, so I think that there is no problem in spreading the story.

In fact, that's true.

And maybe the local aristocrats here thought they could protect me from the people who planned the abduction.

For the aristocrats here, it would be beneficial to get to know me, and on the contrary, if I were attacked and abducted in my own territory, it would be a bit of a mistake...

Freelance philanthropists get a lot easier when they sell their names. It makes it easier to collect donations, and many people are more welcoming, accepting, and willing to help in new places.

And for those who, like me, are thinking about making connections to the upper (...), it's very grateful.

Normally, such people would run for a name by advertising more explicitly, but we try not to do too much of that.

We just need to be able to connect with the top (...) and some powerful people (...).

I don't want to be gathered in the presence of phenomena.

Now I'm selling my name to make a connection to the other side (...).

Well, even after the connection is made, we will continue the activity of bringing the general public to our side, but it is only a one-way service.

No, I want to help people who live in this world.

But you want to start with the people around you and gradually spread it around.

You can't just scatter the power of miracles indefinitely.

Such transient things that rely on personal abilities are not good for people.

I'm counting on it, and if it suddenly gets lost, what are you going to do...?

Anyway, I decided to accept the Lord's invitation.

The date and time is this evening.

... you're inviting me to dinner.

The wild witch of the wanderer, I wonder if she's eating something busy. Did she come to grab her stomach bag?
