Isekai Tensei no Boukensha

Chapter 17-8 Chris, Pinch

"Amur attracts his enemies without getting too far ahead!Jeanne and Aura are watching out for each other with a slingshot!If the enemy pulls Amur out, swap it with a spear to intercept!

I've been with Jeanne for a long time today.The place is a forest a short distance from King's Landing.Recently, the number of goblins has increased, so Jeanne and Aura have been working together to see how Primera works together.In the battle, Amur kicked all the goblins, so Jeanne and Aura never had a chance to swing their spears.

"Primera, I'm not as embarrassed as a goblin!

"This is training in case of an accident.I don't think Amur is going to take a step backwards against the Goblins, but there may be another herd coming in from another direction.For that time, you have to have the habit of moving quickly. "

It is Primera who is in command now, and we are following the instructions so that the three of them can move.You don't think Amur is underestimated, but you feel that Primera has taken it seriously as a result of speaking lightly in the usual way.

After that, Jeanne and Aura took over the command in the order of Amur, Jeanne and Aura, but it turned out that Jeanne and Aura still couldn't do it.Incidentally, Amur was able to give instructions properly, but the force push was noticeable, so a weak opponent like Goblin would be able to defeat him faster than Primera, but I felt like I would receive a painful counterattack if I could stop the momentum.In contrast, Primera was accustomed to giving instructions simply by leading troops to the boulder, and was relieved to see that it was too cautious but stable at all times.

"After all, there is a difference between experience and personality.Amur is not bad, but there is a danger due to lack of experience.Well, that's what most adventurers do. "

For me, for Grandpa, many adventurers who used to work in solos are not used to giving instructions or being given them.If this is a long adventurer partying like the Sword of Dawn, it's different, but if it's a party of leaders who aren't accustomed to giving instructions like Olasion, it's going to be a lot more powerful.

"In Olasion, there are three people who can turn the tide of war upside down.In that sense, pushing is probably the best way to fight... but if you get too familiar with it, it's Jeanne and Aura who will be sacrificed. "

As Primera, she wanted to reform the consciousness of three people who liked to push hard in order to reduce such risks.As for one of the three, it was a very painful story.

"I don't see any goblins anymore, so why don't we take a break and eat?

After a few rounds of command training, there was no sign of the Goblins around.Today's plan was to gather in the woods after a request for Goblin crusade with training, so it was a break and a late lunch around here.

"What do you want to do about the next gathering?I think it's okay for each of us to move freely, but I think it's okay for a few of us to consolidate and aim for big things?

When asked how Primera would move, Amur and Aura were aiming for something big and Jeanne wanted something that could be used for dinner.Grandpa and Primera were both fine, and it was like I was going to decide what to do.However,

"I have a personal request, so I'm going to give you priority."

That's why I wanted to act alone.

"Who sent you a personal request?

"The Duke of Sanga asked me for Truffle.I eat with my mother-in-law, so I was told I wanted a small number. "

Most of the people I could personally ask for were my grandfather's acquaintances, so they didn't say it was particularly confidential, so I revealed my client's name.

When I heard the client, Primera and the others were convinced that they were "good couples," but Grandpa was the only one

"I see... Truffle says it has an 'aphrodisiac effect' and 'epic effect'."

I was convinced for a different reason.

"Father....."

The one who responded most to Grandpa's murmuring was still Primera, hiding her face with her hands without even saying that she was ashamed.

"Primera, my ears are bright red... oh!

Amur made fun of Primera, who hid his face, but Jeanne immediately hit him in the head.

"Primera, what Grandpa is saying is that there is a theory that you are (...) and you are (...)."

There is talk of using female pigs when searching for truffles, and it is said that the reason is that the truffle scent resembles the smell of pheromones in male pigs, but the reason is not well known in this world.However, there is a story that Truffle has an exciting effect because the female pig was useful when looking for Truffle and the pig was excited at that time.

"Well, when it comes to powerful effects, maybe it's because Truffle helps make the body stronger."

So I explained to Primera that what Grandpa is saying is not a lie, but it does not apply to the Duke who is looking for ingredients.Well, even if there was a meaning behind 'as a ingredient', it was only speculation, and there was no need to tell.

"Well, I've never eaten truffles."

"That's true.Mr. Tenma seems to have picked it up several times... but I've never been lined up at the table. "

Aura agreed to Amur's words.But...

"No, they've both eaten before."

"" Eh!

Not only Amur and Aura, but Jeanne also looked surprised.

"Well, I probably didn't know because I didn't use it as it was, but I just mixed it with butter."

They made something called truffle butter and served toast and pasta with it.

"Speaking of which, have you ever had a simple but delicious pasta?

"I don't remember!

"Likewise!... why didn't you give me something more understandable?

Jeanne seemed to have an idea, but Amur and Aura didn't seem to remember it at all.And when it comes to Aura's questions,

"Simply because I don't know any other way of cooking.Truffle butter is easy and easy to use, so I made it... but it doesn't matter if I thought I'd buy another delicious dish for the money I sold it for instead of trying it out. "

and replied. So everyone was convinced, but I actually tried to cook with truffles, but because it was amateur searching food, I couldn't make it very delicious, so there was the backdrop that I gave up and sold it away.Perhaps you should have talked to Albert, Cain, or Eina before you sold them out, but the strange strength of being a substitute that didn't suit ordinary people won.

"If you can get more than you give to the Duke of Sanga, why don't you ask someone how to cook it?"

That's why I went looking for Truffle, making everyone expect it.....

"I didn't find much...."

I was able to get enough to give to the Duke, but it wasn't enough for us to eat ourselves.

"It's just small, so why don't you mix it with butter?"

It's a lot smaller, but if you use truffle butter, you might be able to make enough pasta for the number of people, so I asked if you'd like to serve it for dinner soon.

"Mr. Tenma, I think it would be better if you gave Truffle to your father before you let him out.Otherwise, oniisama will come to play. "

With Primera's advice, I decided to make butter after returning today and make pasta at noon tomorrow.Deliver Truffles to the Duke of Sanga after eating pasta.

That's how I decided to go back to the Mansion and make truffle butter.

"Mr. Tempura, are you hiding something delicious?

Chris came to play.I hid the truffles and thought I'd make pasta after Chris left, but Amur and Aura's suspicious behavior quickly revealed the truffles' existence.

And at lunch the next day,

"Mmm, delicious!

"It smells good!

Amur and Aura admired the flavour when they made pasta with the long-awaited truffle butter.However,

The smell is too light.

"Well, it contains bacon and other mushrooms, so I can't help feeling weak."

"Sure, maybe the scent is weaker than when you ate it before?

Chris and Primera were highly regarded.Jeanne said it was not as good as before.

"There were fewer truffles mixed with butter, and the fragrance was probably immature because it was all small."

"Whatever it is, it should be delicious."

Amur and Aura, who admired the overall low rating, were about to have a subtle atmosphere, but in Grandpa's words, they reworked and demanded a replacement.Well, I couldn't prepare the pasta because the amount of truffle butter was small... Instead, I gave the pasta that was made the same way with regular butter, and it had the same reaction as the pasta with truffle butter.

"Oh! You brought more than you planned.Thank you! "

In the afternoon, I went with Primera to deliver Truffle, who had been asked by the Duke of Sanga.As for the size, it only doesn't reach 50 grams, but since there are 200 grams in total, there will be enough to enjoy with your mother-in-law... I don't know how much to spend on a meal, but it should be avoided that it's not enough.

"Mr. Tempura, I'm talking about the reward... before that, may I have a moment?

The Duke of Sanga, worried about Primera next to me, pulled me a little further away from the scene.

"I feel a little cold when Primera looks at me... don't you know why?

The Duke said, "Don't you know?He asked me, but he looked at me with the eyes that he would know for sure.

"Actually, when I went to get Truffles...."

The Duke looked ashamed of what happened in that forest.Meaning:

"Are you really aiming for the effect of...?

It was an unavoidable reaction.

"No, well... you can't help but expect a little, right?But it's not a lie to say you like Truffle. "

"I see. I'll make a proper mistake with Primera later."

I was convinced that I had a good relationship and decided to mislead Primera appropriately.Well, if you tell me the truth and it gets weird, I don't know how to react.

Well then, here's the price.Please do it again. "

The Duke of Sanga dropped me off and Primera and I left the Duke's Mansion, but Primera wasn't in a very good mood.

"Primera, why don't you and I have a cup of tea somewhere?

In the meantime, I decided to fix Primera's mood and stop by a shop where I could slowly get rid of her, as I promised the Duke.

"That's not what the Duke of Sanga asked Truffle to do.If it works in the first place, kids can't eat it, right?Besides, it wouldn't be good to serve it at a restaurant where an unspecified number of people eat at the same time or at a party attended by an unmarried aristocrat. "

If it really works as an aphrodisiac, there should be some kind of regulation, so I don't think it will be distributed where ordinary people can buy it.

"Well, when it comes to powerful effects, Truffle is said to help make the body stronger, so it can be said to work in the sense of being healthy."

Even if energy is increased as a result of health, it is a secondary effect and not a direct effect of Truffle.Well, the explanation was superfluous, so I didn't tell Primera.

"Really, it looks like it was my mistake... embarrassing..."

I'm not completely mistaken, but it would be better if you said so, so I'm sorry for Primera, but I didn't deny it.

"Well, Grandpa said something that Primera misunderstood, and I can't help thinking it was the right time.Instead, you're going back to Gungjo City the day after tomorrow, right?

"Yes, I plan to stay for ten days to take over the liaison team and share information.I think it's going to be about 20 days. "

Successfully deflected, Primera raised her face and answered my question.

"Then why don't you take a look at Kelly's Knight Golem armor later?I walk a little, but recently I've had a lot of opportunities to use it in the woods and grasslands, so I don't want anything to happen during my mission, so before I go to Gungjo City, I'll have an expert look to see if anything went wrong. "

If you are in the store now, you will walk for nearly an hour, but I am not very concerned because it is about the distance to walk by request, work, etc.Well, it feels like a light date... when you express it like that, you become conscious and a little embarrassed... but after a few months, you'll be a couple, so maybe you shouldn't be so embarrassed.

I wonder if that thought was conveyed to Primera, but my face became a little red.Well, so do I.

"Funn, huh... that's why I came here with lots of sunshine on my date.Let me show you... even if they stab me in the back later. "

Kelly said, "I'm not!"while saying that... behind it, the female dwarves of the employees were all pointing at Kelly, laughing silently.

"I have to be careful not to show Kelly my back.Instead, check the Percival armor. "

It is dangerous to prolong this story, so I decided to cut it up early and start talking about work.Primera thought the same thing, but immediately three Knight Golems appeared from the dimension bag.

"Hmm... the surface scratches aren't noticeable, and you don't have to worry about them because they're all small.As for the inside... I don't know if I can't get it off the boulder. "

That's why I decided to take off my armor and investigate.It is safer to have the same Knight Golem do this than to have powerful dwarves help us, so we have to have two people support other than the target Golem.

"Yeah... I don't see any particularly noticeable scratches.If this is the case, there will be no problem with the usual care.Nevertheless, they are now able to make fine movements smoothly.I want an assistant like this. "

I think you want a golem that moves as much as this, but I ignored it as usual and pretended not to hear it.Incidentally, this exchange has happened several times before, and Aura

"If you want so many assistants, you just have to make a boyfriend...."

And when she leaked... Aura was taken to the back of the workshop by Kelly, who looked ordinary, and didn't come back until the next morning.

After they had seen the armor and weapons of the Knight Golem, they decided to walk back to the Mansion.It would be easier to catch a carriage or get riden out, but Primera suggested that we walk home because we still have time until dinner.

That said, there are fewer slow walks around King's Landing here.

"I've grown on the contrary.Recently, I had a lot of opportunities to go shopping with Jeanne and Amur. "

Primera often does wind shopping with Jeanne and the chances of walking around the city have increased, but I have been busy with dungeon strategy until recently, so even if I shop, I often go directly to the store of interest, and basically ride a riden or use a carriage when going to the castle or the Duke of Sanga, so I may be walking around the city the best in the last few months.

As a result of such a long walk and overlapping dates, I kept stopping at the spot I saw along the road.

"Tempura, Primera, it's late!

I was so late for dinner that Amur was mad at me for waiting for us to come back.

"Wow... are you dating Amur today to make up for that?

"No! Use your Alliance to register for the tournament!Primera has a little errand for the Duke, so she asked me to come with Amur first and meet her later!

"Hmm, it's not a date!It's not a date, but it's close to a date!By the way, I have Primera's permission!

Tomorrow is the day Primera leaves for the city of Gungjo, so today we all decided to go around King's Landing… Shortly before going out, Primera said she had something to pick up at the Duke's house, Jeanne and Aura said they hadn't dried their laundry, and they first asked me and Amur to go to one of their destinations, the Adventurers Guild.

Perhaps it was arranged beforehand between Primera and the others... because I'm Jean, I understand some circumstances and have made fun of me as a joke, but if I see someone who doesn't know anything about those circumstances and only knows that I'm engaged to Primera, I'll look like a bastard who's been cheating since before I got married.I wanted you to think about that area.

"So, Jean... is it personal clothes, but are you shopping with your wives?

It is possible that I am on duty in civilian clothes, but it doesn't look like that when I saw it, so I asked if it was my usual family service.

"No, it's just... you asked me to shop, right?

It was very suspicious.

"Tenma... Jean must have been kicked out by his wife for cheating.You must be wandering the city without guessing where you're going.I should lend you the corner of our cabin. "

"There's a room in the room, right?I mean, I'm not cheating, and... I'm not being chased!

"It's true they kicked you out."

"I should lend you a corner of the cabin....."

"No, that's enough...."

I invited Jean, who looked tired, to a coffee shop nearby to learn more.As a result,

"This is Jean-Jacques Bauer of the Guards.Let me register for the Martial Arts Individual Battle. "

Jean also decided to compete in the individual game of the tournament.Incidentally, the reason Jean was kicked out of the house is because he was unable to attend his daughter's class visit yesterday due to her sudden work.She told her wife that she had no choice because it was a sudden job, but her mood didn't get better. Jean and I met Amur where she was wandering at her discretion before she started crying.And when Jean said, "Why did you decide to go to a personal fight?"

"Definitely hit the temper," he said, "Dad, it's cool!Let me tell you something!

And as a result of being put on Amur.If you show me your coolness, I know the reason your daughter will review it.....

"Mr. Jean, the tournament is nearly two months away, but what are you going to do until then?

I think it would also be effective to show you a good place at the tournament, but before you do that, you should be able to fix your daughter's mood and get back home.

"... temper, what do you think I should do?

"No, even if I ask....."

"You know what to do when Luna and Chris bend their navel, don't you?

I thought... even if they gave me an analogy, I decided to teach them how to do it all the time.It's a

"Most of the time, they'll be able to do something with the sweets and the meal, and if that doesn't work out, Maria-san or Eina will help."

"Well then, that won't be very helpful...."

In addition, it is possible to completely ignore or kick out if it gets annoying (in Luna's case, it gets bigger if you feel the signs of being kicked out), so it may not be very helpful, as Jean said.Just...

"Still, if you apologize with the sweets, it should work!

I think if you buy whatever your daughter likes and apologize sincerely, you'll forgive me a little... honestly, I don't know what will happen.However, if we do nothing over the next two months of the tournament, there is a high probability that we will go in the wrong direction.That said, Jean was firmly vowed to take the sweets home and apologize.

After that, Primera and the others came up with a plan.....

"Well then, please, Tempura!

I decided to help Jean make sweets.I'm an instructor.

"I don't like Jean's apron! It's the most interesting painting I've seen lately!

And in addition to Primera, who used to be a taster, Chris can only smell interesting smells.

Jean is preparing to concentrate on making sweets, or he's totally ignoring Chris and teaching Jeanne... but sometimes his eyes get sharp, so all his anger is going to explode after he's done making sweets.

"Well... that's normal."

"This is the first time I've done this!

The sweets (cookies) made by Jean were both acceptable and unavoidable.Jeanne, who helped Jean with her delicate face, managed to cheer her up.

"Jean-san, if that's the case, you can put this on and eat."

I didn't have time to recreate cookies, so I thought of Jean's cookies as a way to make them tasty by putting jam on.

"This is strawberry, this is apple, and this is mikan jam.You can take this with you. "

"Sorry, temper. Thank you, thank you."

Bringing three vials of jam, Jean respectfully lowered his head and accepted them.Chris, who saw Jean,

"Ah! Jean-san is the only one!Tenma, give it to me too!

and approached.Then,

"What? Jean-san, it's a bit painful...."

Soon after, Jean, who was taking off his apron, grabbed his back collar and floated in the air.

"Chris... being here means we're done with the paperwork, right?I don't know, but you can't just throw it out on the way to play, can you?

It is Chris's fault that Jean was unable to attend her daughter's class visit.Anyway, it seems that Jean was summoned suddenly because Chris, who was in charge, completely forgot the documents that had to be submitted to the Treasury Board yesterday afternoon.In addition to that, it seems that Jean's vacation was delayed because he found several other documents that he was about to submit and was helped.It should be noted that the documents that were helped yesterday were not submitted in time for the noon deadline, and Jean was angry at Ms. Zain for saying that she was Chris's boss.

"I told you to bring me the documents I still have... I'll check them when I'm done... Where are they?

"No, um... I stopped by Jean's house before I came here.But I left it with my wife because Jean wasn't there. "

Chris was grabbed by the back collar and said, "I wish I'd forgotten..."In response to Chris, Jean:

"Whatever my family is, what are you thinking of giving the outsider the Neighborhood Guard information?!

I was cut... or should I say, I was cut.

"Chris, you're fired!

Amur clapped his hands as he watched Chris, but what Chris did could be described as an information leak, so I think it is very likely.

"Amur is right!You idiot! I'll be right back!

Jean was trying to drag Chris out of the cafeteria... but I decided to take them to Jean's house because they would definitely be faster to get home in our carriage.

In the carriage on his way home, Chris was so mad at Jean that he was crying.Jean's wife kept it in the vault so that no one could touch it when she found out that Chris had brought the Guard documents.That won't make it worse.Well, Jean, who secured the documents, took Chris to the royal castle in my carriage, reported to Din, and preached with Din and Maria until late at night. The next day, Maria was in a mood for lack of sleep. The king, Lyle, and Luna were scared to spend the day.By the way, the penalties imposed on Chris were a one-month holiday and a three-month salary cut.

It was a scattered holiday because of Chris, but the anger of Jean's daughter who saw her struggle subsided, and the sweets she brought home would save her mood.

Just while you're eating Jean's cookie with the jam I gave you,

"It's better without cookies."

Jean heard his daughter murmuring.Sometimes I could see Jean baking cookies in the kitchen of the guards' quarters.
