About an hour after hunting for the first time, something hit the back of Seiki who was about to move next.

`` Oh !? ''

"Soraboshi. Let's take a break."

"Um ... no, I can still go."

"Let's take a break?"

"…………Yes"

Haruki shrinks in the gaze of a smiling lotus like Hannya.

Perhaps because she fell down while hunting yesterday, it seems that Seiki had lost all trust from the lotus in controlling the hunting time.

Maybe the impact was magic?

Rainy day friendly fire.

Sudden exercise is fearful.

Power is minimal. There were no injuries or pains only with the impact.

But the magic is scary.

Fire Lotus is more.

Seiki leaves her back on the wall and sits down.

Spawned a skill board at a position where she could not see and touched the screen.

From the fire lotus, it should only look like writing on the ground.

It may seem a little messed up, but it's fine if you don't even notice the skill board.

Haruki Soraboshi (27) Gender: Male

Skill points: 3

Rating: Kenjin

-Vitality

Stamina 0 → 1

-Muscle strength

Strength 1

-Agility

Instant power 1

Dexterity 1

Arms mastery

Light clothing 0

So far, Seiki has been hunting at a fairly high pace.

Thanks to that, one stamina has risen.

However, despite this desperate hunting, none of his previously raised skills have risen.

Not only that, but the attack was just right, but the light clothing remained at zero.

One or two weeks after starting to use the skill board.

I don't think that Seiki will rise soon.

However, it feels a little hard to climb.

Initially, the strength of the skill level that Haruki imagined is, for example, for a one-handed sword-

0 = beginner

1 = a little used to

2 = Kendo first dan

............

5 = Professional / expert

............

10 = God

It was like this.

However, with this idea, Haruki, who can beat Silver Wolf, is inferior to Kendo first dan.

Of course, there are surprising factors, but it doesn't seem right.

Skill evaluation will be more demanding than imagined.

You can understand the technical skill level because MAX is 10, but since the meat system skill is MAX30, I want you to go a little faster.

While thinking about such things, Seiki opens the tree with intuition, specialty.

Therefore,

「――Tsu !?」

Haruki almost involuntarily screams.

-Special

Growth acceleration 3

Tame 0 @ NEW

... that?

Did you bring him in !?

Other than that.

The terms of the acquisition are so clear and indisputable.

You can imagine the contents just by reading the name, but check the explanation just in case.

Tame 0 (Tame monsters, depending on each other) MAX5

Seiki relied on potatoes that could be taken from the rare, and the rare would die without the light.

……So that's it.

Certainly what Seiki did is a name.

I was trying to get a monster without knowing it.

What is a plant-based rather than animal-based theme?

I also want to know what a shadow is ...

Seiki holds his head.

"Is it like a druid or an elf?"

I feel a little bit cool when I change my mind.

… Even though, the plant theme has a faint shadow no matter how you interpret it.

I wish a little darker monster was better.

Yes, but given the name, Seiki decided to take care of Rare.

I'm not going to throw it away, and I'll treat her like Aiko once she's familiar with the planter.

I can't do potatoes, but ...

Today's result is 276 Silver Wolf.

Despite taking a break, I was able to beat more than yesterday.

Perhaps a major factor was that Seiki did not fall. I want to put it on 300 bodies tomorrow.

When she went to the store to sell the ingredients, Akane asked for forgiveness while crying.

Yeah, a really good day.

"Um, Sky Star. Would you like to eat the wolf meat that you hunted today?

"Oh, sorry. I'm busy today."

With a light apology, Seiki returned home with a thrilling step.

Looking at the situation, the lotus inflated his cheek.

Since the end of Stampede?

Seiki is no longer willing to cook rice.

In the past, though, he had cooked food without even asking for it ...

"... maybe !?"

An unpleasant imagination appears in my mind, and my back freezes.

(Maybe Soraboshi has made her !?)

But, Lotus has no way of checking it directly.

What kind of face do you ask, "Does Sky Star have her?"

Such a horrible thing can never be said!

If you ask `` Do you have her '' and say `` Yes, there are people you are dating '', you will fall down!!

Thinking of what to do, Lotus has come up with a strategy and puts it into action immediately.

With that strategy, you should be able to lower the chance of doing heavy damage a bit.

*

Returning home, Rare was withering.

`` Rare !? ''

What happened?

In such a cruel reality, Haruki's eyes get wet.

Rush in a hurry, Haruki touches rare leaves.

The rare leaves were wrinkled as if the water had drained.

"What the hell, why ..."

Did you notice in the voice of Seiki, Leah turned the tip of the leaf toward the soil while Rare stood.

"…………water?"

Rare nodded.

Certainly, the soil, which should have been wet in the morning, is now dry.

It is early summer now.

The temperature is not high yet, but the sun is gradually getting stronger.

Planters have a low maximum water content. So the sunlight that had entered the room easily evaporated the moisture in the soil.

Oops.

I hadn't turned my head so far.

Haruki hurriedly took the water bottle he had used for adventure from his bag and poured the water inside on the soil.

It must have come back to life.

He lifted his body slowly as Leah took a deep breath.

When the water had penetrated to every corner of the leaf, he hit the radiant cheeks many times.

"I'm sorry. Be careful now. I'm really sorry."

Absolutely! And Lea turned their arms crossed.

...... It was dangerous.

I was terrified when I thought I would have lost the rare from the side I decided to take care of.

Seiki pumped the water from the well, poured it into a tub and placed it by the planter.

Put a lightweight cup in it and show it rare.

"Now my throat ... but when the soil dries, lift it up and refill it with water."

Indeed, Lea nodded slowly.

With this, it doesn't fall down because it's too dry.

"Do you have anything you want? I don't know what Rea eats."

Well, Lea pointed at her bag with leaves, twisting her body.

"A potato stone?"

She shakes, and Rea shakes her body.

Point the direction of the garage with leaves and move your body greatly.

"Hmmmm. Do you want something like a potato stone found in the dungeon?"

Leah nodded.

Although the level of rare body language is high, I felt that more intentions would be communicated based on that.

What you can understand so far is the emergence of the tamed skill.

But at level 0 this is.

You may be able to hear your voice once you cancel.

"Yes. Rare, you have some fertilizer you haven't used yet, why not try it?"

Well.

Rare is not very reluctant.

It is painful that the fertilizer that you paid for (was quite expensive) was wasted.

Seiki took out the bag, showed it to Rare, and started the presentation.

*

After breaking up with Seiki, the lotus invaded Seiki's house.

Maybe Seiki is living with her.

But you cannot ask it verbally.

Then the story is easy.

Just look at it secretly.

That's bad.

But that's less damage.

He wanted to avoid the collapse of his own spirit.

The lotus that came up with it does not stop.

Take off your shoes and walk on the floor.

Something was heard from the upper floor.

It's Seiki's voice.

Gently climb the stairs and arrive in front of the room where you can hear Seiki.

Once, a deep breath.

Whatever happens, I must not be distraught.

Give up without disturbing and leave silently as it is ...

Turen never listens to the door.

But

"Hey, no? 』

「―― !?」

"It's just a little. Good idea? 』

"~~~~~ !!!!"

In response to the words I heard, the lotus was not upset.

*

"No, no, no sky star!"

Just as Seiki was holding the fertilizer, the lotus came in with his face bright red.

dangerous.

found!

What should I do!

Haruki panicked.

"that?"

"Hmm?"

Yelled like this!

I was prepared, but for some reason, the lotus glowed.

What happened?

I can't read the heart of the lotus.

Leah kills herself next to Seiki, who can do nothing while holding fertilizer.

What is this woman? When.

With the thickest stem facing the lotus-.

"Wait! Pea, she's my team member. Don't attack."

In a hurry, Haruki broke in.

It was probably still in the soil. The stem clearly showed potato swelling.

A few seconds later, the potatoes were being fired.

I wouldn't have hurt because of wrinkles, but ...

"Soroshi, what is rare?"

"Oh, that's the name of this girl."

"Is it a monster?"

"Yeah……"

"What !? Why is there a monster here?"

"Well, calm down, right?"

When the fire lotus is disturbed, Rea will be killed, so please calm down.

When Seiki calmed down, the lotus took a deep breath and sat on the floor.

"Let's hear an excuse? Either way, it's the death penalty anyway. "

"And why are demons here?"

"Actually, I brought it out of the dungeon--"

"brought!?"

"If you plant here, it will take root."

"Why did you plant!"

"No, because the lotus said something like" If you grow potatoes. "

"I said normal potatoes, not demons!"

Huh?

I thought that I couldn't harvest the demon potatoes and I was depressed.

"... I understand why."

I don't know at all, but a lotus opens her mouth.

"But this is a monster? What do you do if you get attacked?"

"It's okay to be attacked."

"I guess you might be hit by falling asleep!"

"Yeah. But it's okay. Planting here has rarely killed Leah."

"Is the killing power gone?"

"Yeah, sorry rare, get out."

That said, Rea dumped the potatoes a bit wildly.

span! And the potato hit the palm strongly.

But it doesn't hurt at all.

"This way, if I get out of the dungeon, the potatoes will wrinkle."

Rare can't damage Seiki.

At best, it turns green at best.

"Hmm"

A lotus passed through the wrinkled potatoes and snarls over and over again after checking its feel.

There is a wrinkle between the eyebrows, but mysterious light shines on my eyes.

...... Apparently, the feeling of Fuyofuyo seemed to like it.

"I understand that it has no killing power, but it's a monster? Isn't it an enemy of humanity?"

"Yeah, but rare ..."

"Let's pull it out now!"

"Wait wait!"

Seiki suppresses the shoulders of the lotus that is about to rise.

should not. My eyes are fixed ...

Behind Seiki, Leah, who thought she would be pulled out, warps her body, saying, "Try it if you can."

Don't provoke here.

"Rare is definitely a monster, but a good monster."

"I don't see that in my eyes?"

"Do the potato stems look like evil demons?"

"Mum ... I don't have it, but it's a monster."

`` Fire lotus ''

Seiki stares straight into her eyes, grabbing the shoulders of the lotus.

Then the lotus eyes were slightly upset. Slightly reddish on the white cheeks.

、, wrinkled potatoes hit directly on the back of Seiki.

Hey rare ... Don't be sideways now.

I stared and said, "Hmm! Said Rea.

"Devils can become human enemies and friends, like wolves and dogs, depending on how they are"

"but……"

"So what's the difference between the adventurers and demons on the first floor of Chikaho?"

“…………”

When Haruki pointed out, the lotus closed his mouth with a bitter face.

On the 1st and 2nd floors of Chikaho, adventurers flock to demons and lynch at the same time as pop.

The monsters that have just springed haven't killed someone important, such as a relative or lover.

Individuals may be guilty, but seeds are guilty.

However, they are killed like their parents' enemies.

He died and was beaten many times. Carved. Crushed.

"Which is a monster?"

Any adventurer who sees it for the first time will think so.

I also thought Seiki.

I must have thought of Lotus.

"Of course, I don't mean to leave the monsters alone. Thing.

Rare is definitely a friend. Even if you turn your back, you will not attack. If you're an enemy, you should definitely be attacking, right? "

"... A potato hit the sky star's back, right?"

Sharp!

Haruki's face was strengthened by the suggestion of a slightly contradictory fire lotus.

"Don't worry. It's just an expression of affection!"

Once deceived, the potato hit the back again.

That's a little painful this time?

Looking at her sideways, she said, "That's not it! Rare was nervous like 』

Seiki suddenly blew out in that state.

interesting.

Really funny.

"How about the lotus. Do you think this is hostile?"

"It seems unlikely, but what? I feel like I should not tolerate it in a rival sense."

rival?

Seiki tilts her head.

… Oh, because Rea is a long-range attack.

"It's okay. Fire lotus is a wizard, Rea is a potato physical attack, and Rea still skips potatoes, but it's not a new potato body.

"Yeah ... but that doesn't mean ... it's okay, because the worst situation seems to have been avoided."

worst……?

The fire lotus expelled on purpose.

It is not clear what she was worried about.

But anyway, Seiki had Fire Lotus miss her folly.
