Rice for Enoch’s Second Expeditionary Unit
Mysterious Ruins Part IX
"Zara ~ ~, there's an ice cream shop! Let's eat!
"Fine."
Mel is choosing ice cream alongside Zlari with her eyes shining.
"Which one should I... There are too many types to choose from."
"Why don't you eat it in bunk layers?
"No! If you eat a lot of ice cream, you'll break your stomach."
"Then ask Mel for two things she likes and eat them together."
"Yeah, but"
"Me too, all kinds look delicious, I'm worried"
"Really? Then sweeten to your words."
Mel seems to have chosen the forest apple flavor and the summer apple flavor.
"Yes! Mr. Zara, ahhh"
Mel smiles with a sparkling smile and gives me a spoonful of ice cream.
What a happy moment.
(... child... child with... child of man)
"Oh, my God, you're so loud. It's a good place right now."
(I'm talking to my heart right now. You're gonna get frostbite like this, son of a man)
"Huh?"
With that word, I wake up from a dream. Around is a world of ice that shines like crystals.
It's going to freeze to see, but it's not cold at all.
I looked around, but no one was there.
I seem to have been flown to a strange place by myself.
Second, I notice it here.
Around me, falling on ice, a red glowing magic formation was unfolding.
"Ko, what's this?
(It's the magic team I deployed. If you sleep anywhere but here, you'll be dead in three seconds)
"Yes, you were. Oh, thank you."
(Uhm)
"Um, besides me, wasn't there anyone here?
(No, it's just you. suppose there were others, they must have been flown to other hierarchies)
Mel and the others are in other hierarchies.
Is it okay? I'm worried.
(There are demons here too, don't get distracted)
"Yes."
Who are the talking beings? I've looked around, but no one.
In the meantime, I decided to explore it.
"I am, Art. I'm a Knight of the Expedition. And you?"
You can't teach names to beings you don't know very well. Or so, they helped me, so I'll just name my family name.
(I'm a fire lizard. No name)
"Fire lizards, of phantom beasts?
(Well, don't be classified as such)
"How do you know what you're saying to me?
The phantom beast is basic, and can only converse with a very small part of the contractor. Merle's ability to talk to Amelia and Stella is a rare example.
(Oh, no, well, me and you are on a temporary contract right now)
"What?
On the one hand, I've never heard of signing a contract from the phantom beast side.
Probably because there was no example from the phantom beast side of seeking relationships with humans, though they could.
"So, how did you get a temporary contract or something?
(That's it, that's it. Because if you sleep in this, you're sure to die)
"I appreciate that, but I needed to sign a contract?
If you help people, you can do it without a contract.
(You're pretty sharp)
"As a compliment, I'll take it. So, why did you sign the contract?
(Well, that's... now)
"Here?"
(It's been ice pickled and I can't move. help me)
"You're not the one who's going to get frostbite"
(Ugh..................!
"How did that happen?
The fire lizard started talking about herself, crying.
(I have a wife, I have five kids, and I'm doing well at work)
"Oh, I'm not a happy man"
(I thought so, too. Until recently)
Anything, his wife has suddenly gotten cold lately and seems angry.
(I don't know why I'm angry, but I think it's because I get paid less, and I get even more in a bad mood. If you're worried about what to do, accidentally ice pickle it)
"Oh."
It was as if your wife's anger embodied it.
By the way, fire lizards seem to be working to regulate the amount of ice here that keeps increasing infinitely.
In it, he said, the ice called crystallization got caught up in the power of auto-generation, and became ice pickled.
(I wonder why he's so upset every day, but I can't find the answer)
"You really don't know?
(I don't know)
There is only one reason why a woman who is married and has children is upset.
"You, you're leaving the house to your wife, aren't you?
(Huh? Oh, yeah)
"That's it."
(What, what the hell?
"You know, chores are tough. cook meals, wash laundry, wash dishes, clean, go shopping."
Not just what I just gave you, but unnamed chores exist like mountains.
Though I can do the clueless, I'm sure the wife of the fire lizard is in a way that I can't do that. So when you're upset.
"Housewives, too, are a fine profession. When you convert a job to a salary, it's hardly the same as the people who go out and work."
I guess you take such hard work for granted that this fire lizard is done by your wife.
"Even though it's tough, what happens if a child joins us? You must be in pain."
So did my daughter-in-law sisters. I was moaning that a child was born and that there was no freedom. My husband is an easy-going thing, he comes home, strips and scatters his clothes, demands dinner, and takes a slow bath by himself.
Crying at night complains, "I have trouble having tomorrow's work," and I don't change my amusement either.
One of my radical sisters said, "You're the king!" and he was spilling his stupidity that he wanted to kick it off his back.
But well, that's a one-sided statement on the part of the woman.
Even the working male side is in trouble.
I have to work late every night, swing by my boss's mood, and hang out with drinks I don't even want to go to.
However, it should be remembered that couples are those who earn a living and those who support their families, and are not established without each other's cooperation.
"It's not that which is great or bad, but that the important thing is that we understand and respect each other. Besides, parenting is something that couples do regardless of their work, right? You're losing it."
(Wah, wah!! Oh, me, my God!!
Finally, I think I realized my mistake.
From now on, you'll be able to live with your wife hand in hand.
"Reflected?
(I did. No, I did)
"Good."
(Um, so, because it's icy)
"Yeah. You should go help. But can the ice melt on me?
Leezelotte may have been fit, but she's not here.
(I'll instruct you how to melt the ice, just come)
"Okay."
I can't be here all the time. First, we have to move on.
Stand up, get the battle axe. I'm alone, so I have to be on constant alert.
A little further, we encounter demons.
"Chuy chuy!!
Blue furrows are attacked by a monster - the Ice Rat (Aichu) - who has grown an ice-cold (rough) from his back. It's about a metre in size and it's pretty quick.
(This guy's gonna fly the ice-column)
"Thanks"
It's easy to move, thanks to the fire lizard's combat aid.
Avoid flying ice columns and beat flying ice rats with battle axes.
I broke both ways into a gap that was losing my mind.
(You look sweet, but don't be shy)
"I'm not relenting to demons."
(Oh, well)
Ice rats seem to be favorites of children of fire lizards. You think you're going to eat raw meat that stays half thawed?
(The children are delighted that it is sharp and delicious. My wife's, the meat thaws are exquisite)
"Yes."
I guess fire lizards love family stuff.
If I'd listened, I'd know.
So I was unnecessarily sad about my differences with your wife.
Please, I want you to make up for it.
We fight the demons repeatedly and finally get to the deepest point.
There was an ice-covered fire lizard. In about five metres of ice, the fire lizard was delivered like a specimen.
"That sounds pretty cool."
(Please don't. Quick, I want it out)
"What am I supposed to do?
(Help me so I can use magic. all you have to do is cast a spell)
"Well, you can do that, too."
(Oh. With the maximum firepower of the provisional contract, have it melted)
"So, what's the spell?
Miracle Bomber Shooting Star.
"What, say it again?
(Miracle Bomber Shooting Star)
……
Miracle Bomber Shooting Star.
"...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
(That's not true! Holy spell!
"I hate to say it, it"
(If I don't tell you, I won't be able to go home and take care of my children!
"Yes, I did."
Because of this, I am motivated by parenthood. I need to help you.
"I'm coming."
Anyway, there are only fire lizards here.
So I screamed half-baked.
"Miracle Bomber Shooting Star!!
I knew it. It's a spell.
At the same time that I thought so, a magic formation emerges and a star-shaped flame arises.
One after the other, it hit the ice of the fire lizard and melted away.
"Oh, thank God!
"Good for you."
"Thank you. I thought you couldn't do it anymore."
Now the problem is solved.
He then asks me to tell him about the presence of the metastatic formations at their deepest depths.
This seems to be a convenient way to fly to a place or opponent you can imagine.
I also heard the allekore of the ruins here, but I wasn't sure. For now, we have to rendezvous with everyone.
Finally, the fire lizard has thanked him as he seemed to stink.
"Thank you, a lot."
"No. Faster than that, get him home"
'Right. Oh, can I break my tentative contract?
"Yes."
"Before I do, I'll give you my share of power."
"What power?
"Miracle Magic, Keep Miracle Bomber Shooting Stars Available Anytime"
"Oh, that's fine, that's fine."
Don't be shy.
"Because I don't use it"
'You're being modest. Thank you, take it.'
"Hey!
Pattins and sounds. I'm sure the temporary contract has expired. That's all I want to think.
"Gyu!"
The fire lizard rang out to say "Goodbye," and jumped into the transfer formation with his hands up.
Can you make up with your wife?
I was hoping it would work out.
