Strongest Onmyouji's Isekai Adventure ~ The Monsters are too weak compared to my Youkai Servant's~
Lesson 43: The Strongest Yin and Yang Master, in a hurry
And the next day.
……
……
Me and Amu stand side by side in a painting of a school lined with stalls.
"Er... what about Efa?
"'Amu, I'm sorry, there's something I can't take off...'"
……
"Hey, hey, cheer up!
Say like Amu panicked.
"Because it's okay! I'm sure it's nothing. Ha, you said something extra..."
Amu holds the temple.
"Already. If you care so much, why don't you ask him directly next time?
"Er..."
I'm reluctant.
"I don't know if you're blaming me for that... I don't really want to bind you..."
"Tough guy. I don't think Efa would like to hear so much from you."
"Really?
"I might rather be happy"
"Why?"
"Why...... ha. Well, fine."
And Amu takes my hand.
"Look, I'm coming. You said you were gonna enjoy the school festival today, right? For now, forget it. Okay?"
"Oh, oh... okay"
****
Then I just said I enjoyed the festival.
"I'll give it to you today, so you can buy whatever you want."
"Be luxurious. We had extraordinary income."
"That's me, too. Don't hesitate."
"No, no, I did."
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Though there was such a rub.
Many stalls serve interesting spectacles and rare foods, and I also forgot that I was troubled after a while.
Maybe next time I'll talk to Efa directly and ask.
That's how I feel about my relationship with my disciples.
"Oh, Mr. Lamplog. And Mr. Amu."
"Dr. Cullen?
Looking in the direction of his voice, there was a figure of Dr. Cullen behind a stall selling trinkets.
He's hooded in a black robe, and he looks like a magician of dark attributes indeed when he sees it this way.
Dr. Cullen smiles.
"Are you two on a date?
"Yeah, that's the place...... ghhh"
"Chi, no. Yo."
Amu, slightly blushed, rushes to deny it.
I ask, holding on to my little flank. [M]
"Shh, is the teacher the store number?
"Yes, because it's a club store where I'm an advisor"
Eyes on the assortment.
The accessories sold are apparently fabric talismans (amulets).
"Heh. Is it a grant-based sorcery club or something?
"No, it's a handicraft club though"
"Oh, that way..."
Gawa.
"What do you say, one. It's especially popular with adventurers because they often take on the edge."
"Hmm......"
I'm going to look at the assortment in the way Amu was a little interested.
He was a teacher who watched for a while, but suddenly turned to me like he remembered something.
"Mr. Lamplog. Um... you didn't make Mr. Eefa do anything weird, did you?
"Huh?"
"You guys were so close, I don't think so..."
I ask my teacher back in confusion.
"Um, I can't see the story."
"Actually... I saw Mr. Efa walking with some male students in a section with an abandoned research building today. I don't know if you know, but the neighborhood also had stores for suspicious pharmacists, alchemists, and women who were taking guests in the city at night..."
The teacher continues.
"My husband tells me that more than half of street hookers are slaves who are made to do one of the daytime jobs. So I didn't think...... after all, it seems different to see how it goes. I hope the teacher saw it wrong..."
Me and Amu face each other.
Then I asked my teacher back to question me.
"Oh, uh, when was that?
****
The parcels lined up in the abandoned research building are still much less populated than on Main Street.
"I'll look that way."
"Oh, oh."
Watch Amu run sideways, exploring all the sights of the ceremonial God.
I've done this many times since earlier, but I don't see Efa. The fact that you can't find it from a bird 's-eye perspective means you're either in the shadow of a blind spot or you're in a building.
Turn all the extra crows into rats, plus the human rats drawn from the phase are added to unleash them into the building lined up.
Whether you can find it in this......
"Efa... what are you thinking"
I don't even think I'm really imitating a street whore, but there's a chance I'm caught up in something out of the ordinary.
At the side of the road, an outdoor shop was seen spreading rugs here and there.
What should I do? Should I ask someone if they didn't see the blonde student...?
"What are you in such a hurry for? Saika."
Yuki says over his head.
"Wasn't she raised to be a collaborator of Seika?
"... yes"
"Then you can leave it alone."
Yuki says.
"With as much power as that girl, you should no longer be in any danger to yourself. Even if you are somewhat in danger from playing with fire, it is your own fault. Instead, if Seika forgives you later with a forgiving heart, you will be a more submissive pawn with a sense of burden."
Yuki is also right.
But...
"Idiot, can you break it off that easily? You've decided to worry. It's too late after the fire."
……
After a moment of silence, Yuki laughs small over her head.
"Hehe."
"What the fuck?"
"No. I thought you were Seika. Seika was sweet to her disciples, even in her previous life."
"Really?
"That's right. If the apprentice was a little ill, he would rub his mind, and if he was neglected, he would buy everything, so he was often treated as an elderly apprentice."
Hmm, that seems to have happened too......
"Because you don't expect anyone, you don't trust them, and yet you only spare what you give. After all, cunning at Seika..."
"No, I don't care about that right now."
We need to find Efa.
"If, there boy"
Two, a voice was heard from an old man who was expanding the dewstore.
Turning to me, the old man, with his white beard, says a smile.
"Wouldn't you like to see it?
I approached the outdoor shop whispering. [M]
The rug is lined with minerals.
Apparently an alchemist, or metallurgist's shop.
Hmm? Could this shade be, like, ash heavy stone? That's unusual. If you put ultraviolet light on it with a yang chi, it would be clear...,
"That's not why I'm doing this right now. Um, the shopkeeper. Didn't you see a dull blonde student around here a while ago?
The old man keeps his mouth shut with a smile.
Hey, say something...
"Seika! Found it?"
Amu rushes from across the road.
Looks like they haven't even found Amu.
"No, that's..."
"What are you selling oil here? Grandpa, give me one of these."
So Amu takes away the minerals I had.
And offering a little more than the word, Amu went on to say.
"I don't need fishing. Hey, didn't you see that fluffy blonde girl around here?
"Oh, then I saw you and some of your boys go into the other building."
I lose my word to the old man who answers instantly. [M]
... uh, with that being said, the way you deal with a merchandise sale was like this in previous life.
I also forgot that I was traveling because it was a long time ago.
"Bad, Amu. Me..."
"Just..."
The old man goes on to say.
"It was a long time ago that I saw it... until I knew what was being done in it. Ho ho ho."
……
"Hi. Here we go, Seika."
"Oh, oh."
I rush on to Amu, I rush on.
Eventually I arrived at the abandoned research building where Grandpa told me to stop.
Thinking about what to do, Amu tries to get inside for nothing.
"Oh, come on."
"What. Are you scared? Are you aware?
"Because..."
"You're gonna find Efa, right? Come quickly."
Amu pulls me and I step into the research building.
a long hallway. It has a structure with numerous rooms to the left and right of it.
In the deepest room in the hallway, there were some signs of people.
I can hear the noise and slight chatter.
If Efa is here.
"Seika."
……
"Hey, Seika"
"What?
"This..."
What Amu was pointing to was a small piece of sticker fastened to the corner of the door.
"Probability Event Research Club/Results Presentation Venue"
"This."
However, it should have been a casino cover-up......
Me and Amu, silently push the door open.
As soon as I did, the noise jumped into my ears.
The sound of the dice swinging.
The sound of money being emitted.
The sound of the glass being tapped to the table.
Guest anger or laughter.
Same noise in the casino I heard in the back of the tavern one day.
Or it was an example of a hidden casino right here!
"Efa?"
Amu shrugs next door.
Looking at the end of his gaze, there was a cat-haired blonde familiar with the table in the back.
There are a bunch of boys near there standing around to stiffen up...... those outfits, are you kiddos from the Knights of School?
When Efa notices us, she rises from her seat in surprise.
"What, Amu? Seika-kun too? Why are you here..."
"Efa, what are you doing here..."
When I try to walk over to Efa, the Knights of the School break in between.
"Whoa, whoa. How many husbands won't let you get in the way?
"This is just this kid's fight. Why don't you shut up and watch?"
"Yes, they do!" "Pull in!
I understand.
Oh, you mean that.
Speaking of which, it wasn't a rare M.O. in previous life, such as turning a cramped woman into a debt pickle and a hand cage.
If you're going to live cunningly, you should clean up this place well too...,
Again, thank you, it doesn't suit my personality.
In the first place, I tried my best to be unreasonable and I wanted to screw over and seek strength.
"... hey, those guys"
I open the door to the human rattle that I had made invisible.
"Apologize to me and Chivalry in Hell"
"Call-to-...
"Oh, sorry, Seika-kun! Just give me a minute!
To Efa's voice, I hurriedly closed the door. Hairy giant spider legs pull in with only the tip visible.
Eh......
"... aren't you forced to?
"Oh, no. 'Cause I'm just betting on my own money."
"This, all Efa chips?
Amu, who was coming nearby, asks.
Efa nods.
"Yes, I am."
"Oh, this is it all?
There was a fair amount of chips on the table.
Did you earn this yourself because you haven't given Efa the money you redeemed the prize yet...
The game here seems to be People or Dragons.
Apparently, it's the last of the mountain bills, and later only turns.
And the chips, too, were all put on the bet frame.
"Is this all betting on the draw!?
"Ugh, yeah."
"Efa, are you insane? It rarely happens."
Even Amu, who said it was a hit or off or a half, is looking worried.
If the draw hits, the stakes are multiplied tenfold, but the odds are one in thirty-six.
"It's gonna be okay."
But Efa stares with certainty at the bills of the table.
"'Cause this is both water seven"
With a slightly trembling hand the dealer turns the table bill.
The bill for 'Man' is seven of the water.
And the 'dragon' bill too - seven of the water.
It's a draw.
As soon as I did, the cheer boiled.
The Knights of the School are delighted to hug each other, and the guests who were watching at the edge are also applauding and whistling.
Everyone was flattering Efa.
Efa receives those praises, seemingly illuminating a little.
Me and Amu watched the sight without knowing it.
