"This is a curse."

We hurried back to the village, and we got a black burn. We hurried Raftalia to get a therapist to look at us.

"And it's a pretty powerful kind. There's such a powerful curse on the carcass of a mountain dragon?

"Uh... no... the"

Can I honestly answer that I put it on, I'm stuck with words?

"Yes, with this kind of burn if I accidentally get dragon rot..."

He smiles as he sends his gaze to me that Raftaria keeps it to himself.

"Can't you do something about it? I'll pay you whatever you want."

Even Raftaria is a girl. It would be noticeable and troublesome to have marks like these black moles.

"I can't..."

The therapist returns to the room being prepared and brings a bottle with a clear liquid.

"Because it's pretty powerful. Can it be cured immediately..."

"What's that?

"It's holy water. The best way to curse is to remove it with holy power..."

"Right."

Does the wound that occurs with the shield of anger dwell until the effect of the curse that makes the wound heal worse?

That one is very dangerous.

There is no distinction between enemy allies, and there is a counter effect that even involves allies.

I have to think about it and use it.

Moreover, looking at the tree of shields, there was no progress at all in the liberation process.

It was for a short time, but I can't let that shield go. I learned something like that hunch.

"Let the holy water stain the bandages..."

The therapist wraps a bandage stained with holy water around a place with a black mole of raftaria.

"I'm sorry it's a simple thing right now. If you can, use the powerful holy water made in a church in a big town."

"How soon will it heal?

"Honestly...... it's a pretty strong curse. Whether it is easy to eradicate… when dragons are applied…"

The truth is I did it... is it a curse powerful enough to snort that the dragon did it?

"That's right. How soon can we get the pills?

"For once, I did just a little bit. Saints, please, to those who suffer from disease."

"Oh."

I left Raftalia in the therapist's room, and I walked into the building holding the sick.

That's the medicine my job made.

They are eradicating diseases that could not be treated.

I'm horrified to see the sick people whose sleep has quieted down.

... I want strength enough not to have to rely on such a shield.

My own weakness is cursed, including the meaning of saving someone from disease.

Even Filo, it's good because he was okay, but sooner or later the time may come when he won't be okay.

My head turned white on the life I would lose in front of me.

Many times I think. This is not the world of games.

When you die, no one will come back to life.

I think with my eyes on the graveyard behind the quarantine facility.

Because I've been betrayed and deceived - I want to protect you from losing someone who believes in me.

He returned to the therapist's room and spoke to Raftalia, who was wrapped around his body with a bandage.

"I'm sorry"

"It's okay."

"But..."

"I was more afraid that Master Naofumi would go somewhere far."

"Huh?"

"That power takes Master Naofumi somewhere far away. That's what I feel. So if you can stop Master Naofumi, these marks are cheap."

The look on Raftaria's face, who laughed so hard, pierces my heart.

Absolutely, we have to protect it. You can't lose a shield like that. I made a firm decision.

"Is Raftalia okay with the disease or something?

"For once... you're okay"

"Stay close when you have your next pill. And prevention."

"Yes."

Thus we slept in the village that day.

The next day we worked hard to eradicate the plague.

He asked if he could help the therapist with his job, formulated medication ingredients, and the work was finished earlier than planned. I thought I'd teach you, but now I feel like I'm getting in the way.

I hope that there will be no more people suffering from the disease and the village will be at peace.

"Where are we going to do business next? Ask your therapist how to make medicine."

Raftarian holy water is the top priority, but I also want to know how to make the top medicines.

"That Master Naofumi? Isn't it time for a wave?

Huh?

Raftalia tells me to return it to me.

Speaking of which, I was.

Hurry to open wave arrival predictions.

We only have three and a half days left!

"Oh no! We've only got three days and a little bit left!

Not enough preparation for a lot of things.

"Firo, hurry up to Castle Town!

"Rika-yi!

"That saint... take this..."

That's what the village chief gave me. A bag with gold.

"Saint, it's the money you want. Please give it to me."

Speaking of which, you didn't know who I was this time.

"Oh......"

I receive bags of gold and count how much is in them.

... and I put it back in another bag about half of it.

"Huh?"

"I'm not the only one with power. It is also the modus operandi of a therapist in this village. Give it to him."

"Ha ha..."

Yes, it would have been dangerous if that therapist hadn't been here this time. It would have been the limit because I alone would have curtailed the progression of the disease.

In that sense, the meritorious man is him.

"Bye."

"Oh, thank you!

The villagers dropped us off at the rally.

After this, if they find out who I am, will they look nasty?

It's a complicated feeling to think about.

That's in the corner of my head, and now I have to hurry and get ready. Can you no longer care how the carriage is doing!

We hurried to Castle Town.

Rumors broke out that I saw a wagon blasting at a tremendous speed that day...

On that road.

There's something wrong with you.

"Hmm?"

Face out of the carriage.

Wild philoreal a showed up!

Wild philoreal b showed up!

Wild philoreal c showed up!

"" "Gua!?

The philoreals look at Phyllo and give him a startling look!

Filorial A, B and C escaped with a stunned look on their faces!

"What was that?

I didn't expect to run away at the same time as I encountered it......

Something like a rare monster with good experience and money.

Well, you wouldn't want such a high level of experience where you defeated Philorial.

Well, I guess he ran away surprised to witness the Philological Queen or something. Or maybe he's around here.

"It looks like some delicious bird. I think every time I'm too different than when people keep it."

"That's your kind."

Watch out for Phyllo, who nods his tongue. Doesn't he look like food to you for anything?

I'm afraid I'm going to eat with you easily.

"If we go after him now, we'll be finished."

"... don't"

Is it too late?

He's not nervous at all.

Speaking of which, I hadn't seen the LV after the dragon zombie battle.

Me, LV38.

Raftalia LV40

Phyllo LV40

Star... star?

"Hey, there's a star in your LV, you know what it is?

I have a terrible feeling about it. What is it?

"Come on......"

"Phyllo, I don't know"

Ugh... let's see some help.

... I don't know.

Maybe it's on there, but I can't find it at the star.

I finally arrived in Castle Town within that day.

"So, Dad, I need you to sell me weapons and protective equipment in case of a wave."

Something I saw a long time ago. My father at the weapons store put his hand between his eyebrows and thought about it.

"Anne, at all times, don't come all of a sudden"

"Business is a series of sudden events, don't you think?

"Well, yes. What's the budget amount?

"Right."

Don. Don. Put a little income on my dad's standing counter for the past month. Four large gold bags, please.

"How many silver coins were there, this is all I have"

"Anne, count it right! How much rough money did you make, Anne!

"Ha ha, it's the fruit of the trade"

"Not at all... does Anne even have a hobby to surprise you?

"Unfortunately not."

"Well, then count how much there is"

"Ooh."

My father and I, and I counted the contents of the gold bag in Raftalia.

"Speaking of which, miss, did you even get hurt?

My father points to the bandage-wrapped raftaria as he counts the gold.

"Yeah, I was under a powerful curse for a powerful demon attack before this."

I don't think, stop counting and face Raftaria.

"Oh, a curse - that would be a pain in the ass. He's in therapy."

"Yeah, I'm thinking of buying some holy water at the church after this."

"I see."

Did you deceive me...... No, you don't think I put a curse on you or anything?

Hmm.

"Can I ask for a metal carriage or something?

"Anne, really, don't ask me for anything."

"Can't you?

"Well... I'm used to working with metal."

I saw a lot of quantity, but also a lot of copper coins, which, when converted into silver coins, are surprisingly low.

"It's worth 70 gold coins! You made a hell of a lot of money, Anne."

I have a sense of business talent.

I'm complacent that I might have business talent myself.

I think he was doing something like a merchant of death.

"After that, there's all the gear you took from the bandits."

I give instructions to Phyllo, who was looking at the store's products as a jerk, to bring them from the worn carriage that was stopping in front of the store.

"I'll take this out too"

"Anne, you're doing it wide."

"So, how much gear will you sell me just for this?

"Well... your daughter's weapons and protective gear, so, I hope I'm going to sell Anne's protective gear"

Think of it as if the father of an arms dealer said it was emotional.

"Thank you for turning our shop down, but it's time to go to another store, right?

"What do you mean?

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

"Hmm..."

It's not an unthinkable story. Those guys have information on the game, so it's very likely they know where they're selling gear that's more assortment and performance than their father's store.

As the best performing store in Castle Town is my father's... is it another country?

"Suppose you know what I mean?

"If you get to the neighborhood, you might be selling something better than my place."

"It's enough for my father's shop to hang on to the possibility of grabbing a cloud like that."

"Ann..."

"Worst case scenario, you just have to ask your father to build weapons and protective equipment. Feels like I saw it...... you have good arms, don't you?

"Ouch! When I was younger, I was an Oriental apprentice."

"That's why. I'm asking my father for efficiency and everything that he says."

"Anne. Okay, I get it. I have to answer Anne's expectations, too."

The arms dealer's father rode out of the counter and looked at the merchandise in his shop.

"Well...... I guess the magic advanced silver swordside would be within reasonable range of your lady's weapon. Blood clean coated, of course."

Instruct the equivalent of ten gold coins and divide them. Of course, it's ten pieces mixed with a takedown.

"The next magical silver armor with magic defense processing would be within reasonable range."

"Magic defense machining?

"It's a process that absorbs the wearer's magic and increases its defense."

"I see."

I want Raftaria's gear to focus on when I see the possibility that I'm going to get hurt if I can't protect it.

My father moves the equivalent of ten pieces again. That's pretty expensive.

But......

"Hey, can I hang more money and make it a good piece of gear?

"What are you going to do with the metal carriage and the lady's treatment costs, Ann? Later, there will be impotence in gear that doesn't match itself."

"You know what?"

"And the equipment we have in stock is the limit around here."

"Oh, you know what?"

If you are better equipped for someone who is easy to handle even in my father's shop, then I am convinced.

"Don't be bespoke from here on out. Then it'll take a little while."

"Don't bother with that. They're gonna have waves in the next three days, so can we make it?

"You can't make it when you think about sourcing ingredients"

... So is that.

"I've brought quite a few different materials, but they're all missing."

"Well... I thought I could use the skin of a rotten dragon or something..."

"That's the problem, what about Anne?

"What do you want me to do?

"In Ann's case, you can lighten the heavy gear with airwake processing and sell it, but you can also make new gear with the materials you bring."

"Which, by the way, performs better?

"It's a ton, I'd recommend making it because it's highly scalable."

"Hmm... Speaking of which, would you have performed better if you had given a bone to the barbarian armor"

"Oh, I was going to recommend that. The bones of the chimera and the dragon are amazing. After that, replace the skin of the rotten dragon... decorate the core of the rotten dragon in the center of your armor and it will be perfect."

The core of a rotten dragon is definitely an array of Filo souvenirs... It's going to be good gear.

"Heh... then ask for it"

"Every time! Bone grant costs as an omelet, processing costs and material substitutes"

That's what my dad says. He moves five gold coins and takes the material behind the counter.

"Leave the barbarian armor that Anne's equipped with."

"Okay."

I went to the dressing room, got dressed and put barbarian armor on the counter.

"You look like a villager."

"Shut up."

Birds can't help but have a bad mouth.

"Hey, what about Firo?

"You have a carriage."

I had a meeting with my father and he ordered a metal carriage. This came on pretty high.

I had ten gold coins.

Well, that got me pretty fucked up, too.

"Yeah, I want you to look like my little Raftarian sister."

"No."

"I want it, I want it!

I got pretty upset with the bird squeezing the waste.

"Fair enough, Anne. Why don't you buy the bird lady some gear, too?

"But..."

Koitsu, I don't know, just my bare hands or my legs are beyond Raftalia's offensive power.

That's too much for you.

"Anything?

"Mm-hmm. Bird ladies usually fight like demons, don't they?

"Oh."

"Then it would be outside my jurisdiction. I don't know if I can get it ready, but it's better to buy it from a demon dealer."

"Demon Merchant..."

That nasty grin brings me back. In my imagination, that gentleman says welcome or something.

"Do you want to introduce me?

"No, I can guess"

Suppose I go see him for once?

"Well, yeah... come back in two days, I'll have Anne's gear by then"

"Okay.... right. Hey, Dad."

"What?

"I got a star next to the LV, you know what?

"Oh? Did Anne and the others reach the realm of class ups?"

"Class up?

"Anne, don't you know. By" class up, "I mean breaking the limits of growth. Beyond that, you can increase your LV even more, and when you class up, you can get a lot more power."

What?!?

I mean, are you an array, a transfer where you say in a game or something, or a passing ritual guy around there?

Can't you be strong if you don't class up?

"Originally, I can't do a class up without a nationally recognized knight, a magician, and some later adventurers. Anne's a brave man, so you've got enough credit, right?

Think of this the other way around and don't snort even though the bandits were weaker than you think. LV40 at best. He manages by force, hanging the shackles that untrustworthy adventurers and villagers cannot be classed up.

Why can't people who don't trust their country do a class up...

"I set my direction when I class up, but I've been worried about it too... I guess it's all open to all possibilities when I reach the stars"

"... where can I class up?

"Anne, have you ever been there? You can do it with the Dragon's Hourglass."

Can you do that over there? If you think about it carefully, it did look noble, it was a strictly managed facility.

... maybe I could see all the other brave guys over there... for reasons of class up?

How many LVs are there?

I'm just getting frustrated.

"Then I'll go"

If you can do it, you should let it go.

We're going after the weapons store and rushing to the hourglass of the dragon engraving...

The carriage reached its limit, so I left it behind the weapons store.

Under the influence of this, Phyllo is human.

"What's going on?

"No..."

Every day, I feel like I'm supposed to see it in my inn, but it's becoming some unusual structure.

He's been around a lot lately with birds.

That would be the reason.

"Speaking of which, I'd say class-ups expand the possibilities, but what is it?

"I want to class up as Naofumi thinks."

"... stop that. Raftalia, you decide your own possibilities."

When it was a game I used to play, there was a class change where you could choose between the route of light and the route of darkness, but this should be left to the person to decide.

"When the waves are over and I'm back in the original world, be the one who thinks I can live without you."

"Uh... will Master Naofumi be leaving?

"Oh."

I have no attachment to this world. There are delicate, thankful people, but if they save the world, they will be rewarded.

If so, I don't know what it means to stay in such an uncomfortable world.

"Aren't you going to take me?

"Where to?

What are you talking about? Even when a child like Raftaria comes to my world, he can only be seen with strange eyes.

"Firo wants to carry it. Where are you going?

"I can't go with Filo..."

"Really?

"Fair enough. What kind of class up does Filo want?

"Uh - Philo wants to be able to spit out poison"

…………

Out of the question. What are you talking about? This bird.

Is that it, or has Philo had a weird longing lately because he's been fighting monsters who use poison all the time?

With bioplants and dragon zombies?

"I've already thrown up."

In the sense of a poisonous tongue.

"Really!?

Huh. Shut your mouth. Feelo exhales.

"You're not answering, are you?

"Because that's not what I meant. Let's go anyway."

We bounced our hearts off our expectations for class up and headed to the Hourglass of Dragon Engraving.
