Rice for Enoch’s Second Expeditionary Unit

The first day is spent overnight in a big city.

There was an inn where the phantom beast could stay properly and he welcomed me with pleasure.

The night will be free to move.

It was a vibrant city with lots of nightclubs lined up. The captain warns me not to take my wings off.

Do you want to have dinner in the dining room or do you want to go shopping at the nightclub? If I'm lost, I can speak to Lieutenant Berley.

"Lislis, health guard, speaking of which, what happened to the Demon Stick? I haven't seen it lately."

"Ahhh, that might consume a lot of magic, so I'm stopping using it."

Demon stick gras. In exchange for magic, a strange weapon that can create the food I collect.

By using magic, if a runoff occurs, I'm in trouble. Therefore, the Demon Stick Gras is sealed. I am currently using it as a laundry drying stick.

"Was it? But you'd better have something to gain"

"It's for protection."

"Oh, yeah"

Apparently there was a store in the nightclub that sold some weapons.

"Let's go buy some now"

"Are you sure?

"Oh."

Because of the crowd, Amelia and Stella leave a message. I hear Leezelotte will take care of the two of us.

Urgas said he would eat slowly in the dining room. Even though you're young, what you're saying is daunting.

Looks like Mr. Gal is having a tea party with Sura. What a cute thing to do. I wanted to join. Tell him to invite me to the next meeting.

I hear the captain and Zara are busy writing reports.

That's why the two of us, me and Lieutenant Berley, are going out to the nightclub.

"Wow!"

Throughout the city, yellow-glowing lights hung in various places.

"It's beautiful."

"Look, Lislis, the health guard. The identity of the light..."

"Eh!

I'm surprised to see the lights Lieutenant Berley pointed at.

There was a worm inside with a glowing butt.

"That's called photofluorescence."

"Heh heh!"

My passing uncle told me.

Anything, they're glowing bugs that live in the area, and they're going to catch them in the woods.

You think you're going to give them grasshoppers that contain magic and take care of them?

"If you want it, I'll sell it to the other store."

"Thank you"

When I asked about the price, it was quite high. She seems to have a hard time taking care of it, although she wants it because it's beautiful.

"Oops!

I was walking watching the lights on the photofluorescent, and I hit an aunt who walked in from the front. I apologize. Apparently, they were doing extra things for each other. I have to walk right forward.

Squirrel, get your hands on me.

Because of the danger, Lieutenant Berley held my hand.

I decided to be sweet with your words without being able to say anything because I treated you like a child with all my might, but I just bumped into people earlier.

"Ah, weapons store, there was"

"Looks like it."

I've never seen a weapons store nightclub before. There are a wide array of swords, bows, daggers, etc.

Lieutenant Berley spoke to his uncle at the weapons store.

"Welcome!"

"May I see your weapon for protection?

What my uncle the weapons dealer took in his hand was a stick as long as the Demon Stick Gras.

Take it and shake it gently.

"Hey, Lislis, how's the health guard?

"Uh-huh."

I feel a little too light. Hitting with this is not going to give you any shock.

Looking at the store merchandise, I noticed a weapon with a red tag on it.

"Oh, that's nice!

It was a weapon about half a metre long, with a fist-large ball of iron protruded by a togette at the tip.

"Lady, is this it?

"Yes!"

This weapon is proy stellar - it seems in ancient language to mean 'star of dawn'.

It's really starry and cute!

But it's pretty heavy. But if I hit him with this, he's gonna be able to do a lot of damage.

The price is half a silver coin and not that high as a weapon.

The mould is old, so they've been selling it for a long time.

"Affordable and the name matches Stella, so I'll make this one"

"Are you all right? Don't you want to be heavy?

"I'll work out! Excuse me, this."

"Maido!

I think I made some good shopping.

Besides, he gave me a bag where I could carry a weapon. Now, I'll try it on.

"Good. Hey!

"Squirrel, are you okay?

"Yeah, I'm fine."

I have the power, so it won't be a problem when it comes to carrying.

It will then be dinner time. I bought a food called pork noodles. The price is as low as one cup of copper coin.

Sit and eat in the outdoor seats that were available around the nightclub.

"Ugh! Oh, yum!

I was hungry, so warm noodles seemed to stain my body.

It had a great value for money with soft-boiled pork braised in horns, and the sweet and spicy sauce involved a tufted noodle and it was very delicious!

It also took a lot of medication, and the crisp flavor enhanced the sweet sauce taste.

Oh, how come, nightclub meals are cheap and tasty?

The sweetness after the meal bought candy tangles of fruit. Shop the Rieselotte, Stella, and Amelia items from Bally.

I could buy weapons, the dinner was delicious, and it was a very satisfying nightclub stroll. All I can say is thank you to Lieutenant Berley for hanging out with me.

◇ ◇ ◇

The expedition still continues.

The journey to the mountainous area where Ciel Icecoletta is located went well.

Unlike regular expeditions, it's great to be able to stay in the inn at night.

It's huge and luxurious because it's a licensed hotel for phantom beasts.

I can take a bath every day, and I wish I was on a mission like this every time.

Day five. Almost to your destination.

Horses were single-riding ahead of the carriage.

In this way, we are leading the carriage for a reason.

On the way to the mountains, there are streets full of demons. If everyone was in the carriage, the counterattack would be delayed. So they're taking turns escorting the carriage.

The escort is only available to those who can carry out the combatant's avant-garde.

I mean, they say the captain, deputy captain berley, mr. zara, mr. gal while they replace him.

Me and Urgas, Liezelotte will be waiting in the carriage.

Mr. Zara and Deputy Berley were now serving as escorts.

Mr. Zara is crossing the horse and Deputy Berley is riding Amelia.

Inside the old streets, it was going with a gutter, but slowly slowed down and the carriage stopped.

What the hell is going on?

The captain looked out the window and spoke to Deputy Berley outside.

"Hey, what's up?

It was Amelia and Stella who came before Lieutenant Berley.

"Que, que que!

"Kwwww."

"Huh?"

The captain didn't know what Amelia and Stella complained about and was listening back.

"Que! Que ~!"

"Kwwww!"

"Hey, Lislis, interpret!

"Yes, sir."

I looked out the window and asked what was going on.

Then, something amazing was discovered.

"Uh, there's a strange creature a little further away, and they're attacked by demons,"

"A strange creature is a phantom beast!?

Push away the captain, Leezelotte has asked, but he says he won't know until we get closer to the details.

"It sounds like a place off the street. What do you want to do?

If we keep going, we won't encounter demons or strange animals.

Apparently Amelia found it flying in the sky.

Captain, make your decision.

"That's hard."

If you're going to help, it's off-duty work. If someone gets hurt badly in the face of a demon, the captain will be blamed more than the upper management.

Although it is painful to pretend not to see it, I cannot complain that I want to help.

We are knights. You can't move your emotions first.

The captain has his arms together and his eyes closed, wrinkling between his eyebrows.

Everyone was waiting for the captain's decision.

Push, open your eyes. In the captain's eyes, there was no stray.

"Berry."

"Yes."

"What do you want?

"I will obey the captain"

The captain looks at the others in turn. Everyone just snorted cocklessly about whether they were of the same opinion as Lieutenant Berley.

"The phantom beasts, spirits and fairies have been on strange edges, helping us. This time too, it must be on the edge of something."

- That means the captain seems to be going to help strange creatures.

The captain asks Amelia for details of the location. I interpreted and told him.

"They went south through the woods on the side of the street. Amelia seems to be leading us from the sky."

"Okay."

Amelia leads us from the sky, and we walk on the ground to the scene.

"All hands, prepare for battle!

The carriage is parked on the side of the street, and the crew go down and grab their weapons.

I also had a new short cane I bought yesterday - Proy Stella.

Urgas notices it visibly.

"Squirrel, what's wrong with the health guard, his weapon?

"In the city I stopped by on day one, I went shopping with Deputy Berley!

"Oh, is that Proy Stella? You're in the mood."

"Of course!

Don't tell me you were barebacking last night and you're having muscle aches.

"Let's go!

It takes more orders than a captain.

It was the start of a strange biological rescue mission.
