Using Gacha to Increase My Companions and to Create the Strongest Girls’ Army Corps

After encountering Mr. Dolph's escorted carriage, an adventurer, we continued our journey for a few days, and we finally arrived in the King's Capital.

To enter the city before dusk, stop the carriage in front of the Adventurers' Association and say goodbye to Mr. Ardell Bell and the others.

"Okura-san, thank you for escorting me this time."

"No, thank you for nominating me this time."

I receive a certificate from Mr. Ardell Bell, who stepped out of the carriage, to accomplish the request.

This time we didn't have a particular fight, and it was easy to finish the request for an escort.

It would be great if I could always finish the request like this.

"My daughter seemed to have a lot of fun because of you guys. I can't say anytime, but if I get a chance, I'd be glad to have you visit me at the main mansion."

Saying so with Mr. Ardell Bell, he gave me a piece of paper with something written in detail from his nostalgia.

If you look at the paper you received, it's a map of the King's Capital.

There is a part with red circles written on it. Maybe the location of Mr. Ardell Bell's house?

"Oh, thank you! When I get the chance, I will definitely ask!

I didn't know you could invite me to the main residence.

Rather than being so trusted with this request for escort... thanks to Estelle getting along with Annelie.

Seeing those people there, Annelie was swelling her cheeks and frowning dissatisfied as she hugged Estelle.

"Mm, I can't believe I said goodbye to Estelle here."

Apparently it's a shame to break up, he doesn't want to leave.

Estelle smiled and spoke to Annelie like that.

"You don't have a choice. I'll go see Annelie if I have time, so cheer up."

"True! I promise!

"Hehe, I promise."

When Estelle made her promise as she stroked Annelie's head, she stopped holding on to whether she was satisfied or not.

You're getting used to it, and Estelle's getting held up and not getting disturbed.

"Annelie, it's time to leave, so get in the carriage."

"Ah... yes. I'm sorry to hear that, but this time you're saying goodbye here. Estelle, I'll see you later!

Yeah, I'll see you around.

Finally, she squeezed Estelle's one hand with both hands, before Annelie got in the carriage.

And when Mr. Egon leaves the carriage, Annelie looks at me through the back window and waves.

Estelle also waved back, which lasted until she could no longer see the carriage.

"Phew, you've finally finished your escort request."

"That's right. I'm glad this is over."

Along the way, I didn't have to have any particular problems, except that there was an accident with a carriage escorted by other adventurers.

Those people and the treatment and the carriage were safe, so in a few days you will arrive in the Wang capital.

Well, we have to do something for ourselves.

Let's get home and all that later and finish the escort request first.

Keep going inside...... no, before that.

"I'm going to report to the Adventurers Association before I go home, but does Sisha go home first?

"What, are you sure!

"Yeah, I'll just report it. Go home and show Luna your face."

I just moved my body with Sowa and I want to go home as soon as possible! and Sisha was complaining with her body.

If you just want to report it to the association, I can do it alone, and I'll get you home a little sooner.

Luna must be feeling lonely too...... sleeping.

"I can't believe you pay such attention, that's Osakura! You're a man! This, this!

"Don't poke me with your elbows!

You were so happy, Sisha stuck with her elbow with her tungtung.

... You usually say he's not manly, but he's only in good shape at times like this.

●

Only Sissha returned to her home, and me, Nor and Estelle went inside the association.

Then the voice of a woman heard a long time ago echoed within the association.

"Ah! Mr. Ogura!

Looks like the receptionist, Widge, saw us over the counter and screamed.

He is angry at me for being lightly slapped by another receptionist who was right around the corner.

"Ugh... it's been a while. You're back."

"Yes, I got a request from Quelles to escort me back"

"It's been a really long time."

Turning to the receptionist, Widge was a little grumpy because of her anger.

I've been back once to meet Dius and the others, but then it's been a while since I've been working in Quelles.

I knew the Association receptionist wouldn't make it without this guy.

"Sister, you look as good as ever."

"Because it's my handle to be healthy.... Uh, would you like to report the request today?

"Ah, yes."

Where Widge regained her composure, she submitted a certificate of the request for escort she had just received from Mr. Ardelbell.

Have them look right through you and receive the same 600,000 G as they go as rewards.

Only six gold coins, but I feel better when I receive my reward.

After receiving it, Widge called out even more......

"I heard. Yikes. Otakura-san and Quelles are also active... Ah"

Raise your voice on the way, put your hand on your mouth, damn it! The behavior is stopped with the expression.

"What's wrong?

"When Mr. Ogura and the others came, they told me to let the president of the association know! Please wait a moment!

"Eh."

After making a gesture of restraint in the palm of his hand asking him to wait, Widge left the counter and ran to the second floor of the association.

That haste...... and is it also a report that the president of the association tells you to let him know?

"... we had a problem."

"Though I'm not supposed to be doing anything in particular"

"Aren't you talking about the black demon stone?"

"Oh, speaking of which, you said the receptionist at Quelles reported it."

I wasn't in King's Capital, and I didn't do what they call me in Quelles.

If you have any idea, I wonder if it's the Demonic Light Stone from the example you had me look into scattered in Quelles.

A little while later, Widge came back as she made another dota noise.

"Sorry to keep you waiting! The president of the association wants to talk to you, so may I have some time!

"Yes, I don't mind."

We were escorted straight to Mr. Christoph's room by Widge.

"Hey, I'm sorry I called you in."

"No problem. Long time no see."

I was to sit on the couch in the same face-to-face fashion as last time and talk to Mr. Christoph.

"I was surprised to hear about your work at Quelles. I've crusaded two Grandis for everything."

"Ah, yes. I ran into him when I was hunting. We crusaded because it was obviously a monster that seemed dangerous."

"I didn't expect to achieve so much results as soon as I was promoted to the B-rank. I recommended you. As far as I'm concerned, my nose is high."

As soon as I got promoted to B-rank, I was escorted by Mr. Ardell Bell, and then a crusade between two Grandis in Quelles.

That seemed like a long time and a short time. It can be said that it can be done well as a short-term achievement.

Grandis seems to be a great crusader demon, so I think he could have lived up to his expectations by just knocking it down at a solo party.

"That was a very responsive demon."

"Right. The magic worked so hard, I wasn't much help."

"Ha ha... Makes Grandis quite responsive to some degree, huh? Reliable ladies."

"Hey... they're really reliable."

You can't really see the bottom around with that one.

I can see Mr. Christoph's face pulling a little.

I can't believe I was dealing with Diabols when I put together a bunch of Grandis and Trent by myself and crushed them and they still seemed to be able to afford it...... really dependable.

"Well, shall we get down to business about this? I know it's mostly speculative, but this time I called you about the black Demon Light Stone that you found."

After all, what can I do for you about that demonic stone?

"To be honest, I still don't know what that is either. However, as far as I've heard the report, I'm pretty sure you're involved in the Grandis outbreak."

"We have the same theory."

Grandis discovery site. And the second time I encountered Grandis, the situation is told in detail.

And that Diabols came out of the inside and had that stone.

The information should be coming from the association in Quelles, so Mr. Christoph should be able to speak on the assumption that he knows everything about this case.

"And the problem is the demon that had that demonic light stone. He said there was no record at Quelles', so he asked me to take what the demon had dropped to this association to find out."

"Were you looking into it in Wang Du?"

"Well, then you already know what that demon is."

The horns and spears that fell from Diabols were deposited with the association in Quelles, but were they transported to this association to find out?

The Wang Capital association would be a place like home base, so Estelle would be right. At least there would be information on Diabols.

That's what I was thinking...... Mr. Christoph is silently shaking his neck beside Estelle's words.

What... no way.

"Maybe... the Wang Capital Association didn't have any information either...?

When asked, Mr. Christoph shook his head vertically.

Yeah!? Seriously...... I can't believe the Wang Capital Association doesn't have any information either.

"I keep all the information on demons that adventurers have ever defeated in the association. But as for that demon, it looks like it was brought in for the first time."

"Are you saying this is the first time we've defeated that demon?

"It will."

I don't know when the Adventurers Association has been around, but it should be going on for quite some time.

And yet I can't believe I don't have any information... where the hell is Diabols from?

"Currently, as an association, there is no precise information that can be provided"

"Don't even the Wang Capital Association know..."

"Well, that's enough for you."

Whoa, not even the Wang Capital Association has any real information. You mean the other person is a completely unknown person......

I was trying to fix this commotion, too, but it's not going to get out of my hands.

So pessimistic, Mr. Christoph went on to open his mouth.

"I don't have the exact information... but I know of a story that might have something to do with it."

"What, is it true!

"Yeah, but this is a story I found out about in old materials. I don't even know if it's true."

"But it's better than not knowing anything!

"Right. I was wondering if you'd let me hear it."

Oh! That's the president of the association! Someone you can count on!

Even if it lacks accuracy, I want to know as much as I can about anything that might be a clue.

Though I tried to hear it with anticipation for Mr. Christoph's words that followed...... a shocking word came out of it.

"Do you know the existence of a demon?

... Huh? Demon?

The demon man... that demon that Widge told you about before, that he's already doomed?

"Are you a demon..."

"Uh, it's certainly not a 200 year old feud anymore, is it?

"You talked about that. I heard they died because of the small numbers but they were belligerent."

When I hear our words, Mr. Christoph is shaking his head vertically and nodding.

Wow... I knew it was that demon.

"Apparently you do. The demon... he was experimenting with the possibility of using the demon in the battle."

"Using demons... but that's what we're doing in this country right now, right? I heard you were putting a magician on Wyburn."

Using demons...?

Seems like you've already done that in this country, and you must be a demon in the first place.

"Exactly. When it comes to using demons in general, they refer to things that demons manipulate."

He's not wrong about what I think.

Still trying to talk, does that mean that demons are not the same as manipulating demons?

Other than that, I can't believe we use demons in every dispute... what can we do?

"The demon experiments I knew seemed different. Looks like he was experimenting with various methods such as artificially generating demons, or not being able to enhance the demons themselves. We haven't found any experimental material, so we don't know what it was like."

Artificially occurring demons, strengthening demons. That was all I could think of and my body reacted freakedly.

Both were said a while ago by Estelle anticipating the effect of that black demonic stone.

The Grandis we encountered would be situational, and the latter's demonic enhancement would apply.

"From what I've heard about you, this time Grandis appeared abruptly, and I think something like that might have been used."

"And then... the demon still survives somewhere, do you mean?

So you're saying the killer could be a demon?

There are those who survived hiding from people without perishing in a feud 200 years ago. It is natural to think so.

Torn in strife in the first place doesn't mean it's completely doomed. There can be survival.

Seriously... considering that, I'm glad the killer wasn't around when Grandis.

If that demon was the same strength as the GC demon, there would undoubtedly be sacrifices in the present power.

In GC, strength has changed depending on the difficulty, but I don't know how strong the demons in this world are.

It's possible that he's weak enough to defeat him at his leisure... but I'd rather avoid fighting him if I could.

"I don't even know that. It's possible that the demon is doing it, or that someone who got the material for that experiment is doing it. Or other possible causes."

"After all, you don't know what's right."

"Ugh, it's been a difficult story..."

It doesn't look like they've decided to be demons.

Either way, it doesn't make any difference... but I want it to be the latter as a hope.

After all, I'm only guessing because I don't have enough information, but I think Mr. Christoph's story has solved a lot of mysteries.

"Anyway, this is not something we can overlook. In the future we are going to have A-rank adventurers work with us as well and make it our policy to gather as much information as possible. Otakura may need your help. Then it would be helpful if you could help me."

"Yes, we will do everything we can to help."

Finally, Mr Christoph asked me to bow my head and cooperate, and this discussion is over.

You can't refuse if the president of the association asks you straight away.

Looks like we're pulling out even an A-rank adventurer, so it's going to be a little easier to gather information from now on.

Going outside after the association, Knoll is twisting his head in a distressing voice.

"Mmm, I think it's getting kind of epic."

"Demon Man, huh. Suddenly they say there might be such a thing, but it doesn't really make sense."

"Right...... There won't be much we can do, and I'll leave it to the president of the association now."

We're not going to be able to do anything more alone.

If there is anything I can do, I will encourage you to strengthen your power even further, assuming you fight demons... it seems like the only way to do it.
