The Story begins with a boy dreaming about fantasy architecture since elementary school and after many attempts he finally managed to create his own ideal building or he thought so the chapter begins with a marriage proposal this scene had become a daily occurrence for him this was Yuma where the concept of Dreams becoming reality was created this world of massively multiplayer online games established VR In Japan exhilarating battles win the hearts of Hardcore users in addition from furniture creation to fullscale Construction craf worldwide were attracted to its overwhelming degree of freedom and Miyabi was one of
them he dedicated his time outside of work to craft and finally fulfilled his childhood dream now it was just a Lover's Nest though they pissed him off at first but then he got used to it in real life he was a corporate slave so it Was kind of great that he was able to craft for himself and also make people happy he convinced himself that this was something to be proud of one day he got a new male named guide to Special World from the admin it was a bit early for the result but he
wondered and opened the mail the male thanked him for his wonderful architecture he thought he was being praised as a cupid of Love which meant he was being appreciated the thought of that made him happy as a Token of their appreciation they offered to take him to a special world the male asked if he would accept his data to be carried over he thought that if he could immerse himself in crafting there was nothing to worry about so he clicked yes the moment he clicked that option he started disappearing he opened his eyes in the
forest he thought this was a weird server change and was about to see what he could do but but suddenly he heard a bunch of Bandits telling someone Not to move they told him to leave that Carriage behind miabi was confused because Bandits weren't supposed to be in yumai he thought this was a new realistic update he saw a girl standing against them their eyes met and the girl gave him a weird signal it seemed the quest started when he moved out but still that was a confusing signal he has to distract eight or nine
out of the people in a situation like that so he decided to show himself and yelled at Them asking what they were doing the man didn't seem to be intimidated by him and told him to fight back if he wanted to and told his men to kill them all this wasn't the reaction he expected the girl thanked miabi and used her spear to attack the bandits she used her Stone bullet ability surprisingly a little Stone hit miabi and it hurt his arm no matter how elaborate it was a game was a game so there was
no way he could feel any pain at this moment miabi knew Something was wrong because he was in the real world after tying up every Bandit the girl said that they would hand them over later when they reached Town her name was Liz and she apologized for dragging him into this m AB introduced himself too and stated that there was no need to worry miabi commented about the Battle and stated that he had never seen one before Liz stopped him and asked if he was an adventurer when he said that he was a Civilian she
felt so sorry miabi was puzzled so she said she thought he didn't look like a fighter but since he had good-looking armor she thought he was an adventurer miabi apologized for being confused Liz asked if he was heading to angelum and if they were going in the same direction she would take him there as an apology he thanked her because he was just getting lost he then asked if he could get some time before they left because there was Something he wanted to do Liz was okay with a little waiting miabi went inside the forest
and gathered some sticks and stones he tried to remove his headset but he couldn't he was in a different world so he needed to be careful not to do anything that might look suspicious he first needed to see what he could do he tried to open his inventory but it seemed that this world was different from Yuma Sakai he thought it might be easier so he just chanted in his mind The moment he chanted he found himself in a big place in Yuma Sakai the inventory was dis laid in a window but here it was
floating around in his head the rocks and branches he picked up earlier were in here too the next thing to try was crafting he never thought he would be nervous about basic crafting he managed to craft a table with branches and rocks confirming that the crafting system works too since he didn't have to do anything it was more convenient than To do it in game he could even get the recipe for anything he wanted to make just by thinking about it it was different in some aspects of the game but felt similar to the way
it worked the next thing he needed was a stone axe so he created one a stone axe was not only used to chop wood but also could be used as a weapon making it an excellent item to have in the beginning and he only used 10 small branches and 30 small rocks as long as he had an axe Collecting would progress much faster he tested the axe and it seemed to be working perfectly enhanced harvesting efficiency and even automatic harvesting were being carried out now that he had settled that he could live in real life
with items he crafted himself he could go collect materials to create any item he liked enjoy adventure and slow life at the same time and live in a house he built himself with his family he was thrilled with the idea of his dream Becoming a reality he went back to the carriage Liz was shocked when she saw a stone axe in his hands she seemed even more creeped out by the weird face he was making miabi realized that he needed to be careful not to do anything suspicious so he immediately changed his face and explained
that he took the axe thinking it could become a weapon Liz was confused because he was empty-handed earlier when he went to the forest he responded that he just picked up some Rocks and branches and crafted it Liz realized that he was a craftter she thought that it was weird he would go out on the road empty-handed miabi asked if she couldn't use it and she said that she was a magician the guards asked why he didn't hire one of the guards if he was a manufacturer Liz turned to them and stated that it was
rude to speak like that to someone they had never met before miabi could understand that those people were more Normal when Liz confirmed that Miyabi had all his stuff they continued their ways they followed the map and took down some goblins on the way after a while they could see angelum the Gate of the city was pretty big there were a lot of guards so miabi assumed that it was a big city too when they were trying to enter the city the soldiers stopped them miabi panicked but Liz told him that this happened all the
time the Squad Captain angelum came and thanked them For capturing the bandits he wanted to know the leader of their group while miabi was relieved that they had just come here to arrest the bandits Liz introduced herself as the leader the soldier checked her Adventurer card and it appeared that Liz was a c rank Adventurer the soldier asked if there were six people in her group but Liz stated that miabi was a civili the others seemed like they left it to her miabi was shocked but Liz told him Not to she said that it was
an unspoken rule that the person with the highest rank gets to be the leader and her rank was the highest in the group the other man said that Liz was very attentive so she helped them a lot miabi apologized and explained that he was surprised because he didn't expect the leader to be a girl he also praised her for being trusted even by adult adventurers he noticed that she was blushing after his words the soldiers took the bandits and As for the five adventurers their reward was going to be sent via adventurers Guild later the
lady in their Carriage thanked them for their help the other members said farewell to them and left Liz and miabi alone when they left miabi had a question for Liz he asked if he needed an ID to get into town Liz asked if he lost it even though he had inventory he responded by saying that he never had an ID to begin with she said that he had to pay to get in but he Didn't have any money he said that it was a double Miracle called no ID and no money after almost a minute
of Silence Liz started scolding him she didn't want to do that but she had to give him a 3-day temporary pass she said that if he was planning to stay for a long period of time he should apply for an ID card at the adventurer Guild inside the Angela miabi thanked Liz for her help and the money she lent him she did not forget to remind him to pay her back and Make sure he kept all her terms Liz had given him two conditions one was to register as an adventurer at the adventurers Guild and
they were going to have a part of two so that she could disclose their location from the adventurers Guild the point was to prevent him from running away crafting would require him to gather material so there was no harm in registering as an adventurer the second condition was to help Liz with her work for a while and Accompany Liz on requests she received apparently she wanted him to help her carry her stuff Miyabi was so distracted by the stores that she had to call for his name miabi didn't really have any fighting skills but he
believed he could manage with support they went to an inn while he thought they would go to an adventurer Guild Liz said that the first thing he needed to do was to get a place to sleep the Inn cost five silver coins per night the change was five silver Coins which which means one gold coin equals 10 silver coins since staying in a business Hotel was roughly 5,000 yen he concluded that one gold coin was about 1 Yen he borrowed almost 20K from a girl one year younger which hurt even as an adventurer by trade
while he was resting in his room he decided to return the favor the next day they went to the adventurers Guild and miabi was amazed by the people he was seeing judging by His reaction Liz asked if it was his first time miabi was familiar with it in the game but couldn't say that out loud so he explained that he came from a place so rural that he never got a chance to come to town so he was kind of impressed she responded by telling him to not get too impressed that he had strayed too
far she then greeted a woman named Elanor and informed her that she had come to report the escort request Elanor welcomed her and asked if the Person next to her was an acquaintance miabi was too impressed by Eleanor's Beauty so he made a cool face to impress her and introduced himself he said that he came to register as an adventurer on Liz's recommendation Elanor thanked him for his politeness and introduced herself too watching Miyabi's movements Liz told him that his nose was getting longer he said that this was just a basic greeting and when he
met Liz it wasn't time to calm down and exchange Greetings elanar asked for lizz's adventurer card and told her to wait while they check the status of her request in the meantime she gave miabi the application form to fill out he had never seen those letters before but he could read them normally he wondered if this was another effect of the data transfer there were seven ranks in total and it fluctuated based on the evaluation of requests and Guild contribution an adventurer card could be Used as identification and apparently he could also use it to
deposit his money just like a bank he guessed that it wouldn't be practical to carry around all his money while you were taking a request there were lots of unnecessary conditions in the application such as being civil and no fighting while he was thinking about the possibility of adventurers not being civilized people Liz expressed her surprise at the fact that he took time to read it miabi read It all because he recalled his memories as a corporate slave Liz said said that about 90% of people don't read it he didn't believe her but Elanor confirmed
that it was true she said that the adventurers Guild was very grateful that he took the time to look it over being an acquaintance of lizz's he was a serious person to her miabi figured out the reason why it was written so rudimentary in the terms and conditions and concluded that she must be having a Hard time he signed the application but then realized that he had written it in Japanese Liz didn't seem to notice and told him to write supporter for the occupation part miabi was puzzled so she said that usually long-term requests and
escort requests would make it more difficult to take care of weapons and armor so in that situation they temporarily hired a supporter he was relieved that she didn't notice he used Japanese he asked if she meant the Adventurer who works in the background and she confirmed him but she mentioned that it didn't mean that he wouldn't join the fight getting the water from the river and cooking he was exempt from guard Duty in the night so it was less dangerous miabi asked if that was a little easy while everyone else was fighting she said that
it wasn't true because the longer the request goes on the more she wants someone else to do it apparently she was always on edge when She was asked to escort someone in other words it's Insurance to ensure the completion of the request so it would be mainly chores when fatigue builds up you tend to become irate more easily and it may also have a role in preventing troubles he decided to do what she said and sign up as a supporter he gave the paperwork for the party application to elanar and Liz was tired of the
escort request so they split there she said goodbye and left elanar gave him his Adventurer card and asked if he had a tempor pass he gave her the pass from his inventory she seemed surprised to see him being a producer he asked if it was unusual for a producer to register as an adventurer and she approved of him she said that most of them would register for a commercial Guild or production Guild she added that it wasn't that there were none but they didn't have the stamina to keep up so they ended up shunned miabi
didn't seem To be affected by her words because he assumed there weren't any hot-blooded producers out there like him she said that lately they had been pushing production guilds to work with them so she was rooting for for him to do well out there she then mentioned that time doesn't pass in inventory if he could bring demon meat and valuable Parts in inventory he could easily increase its purchase price so she advised him to keep that in mind when collecting he Promised to do his best to bring her a variety of materials he also wanted
to pay off his debt to Liz as soon as possible regardless of what he was crafting it was important to gather the materials first if he did it along with the request he would be killing two birds with one stone rather than spending time in the production Guild where there were potential conflicts of interest he might as well spend his time in the adventurer's guild he then asked If there was any place outside of the city where he could collect materials and she told him that the safest place was East in the next chapter miabi
leaves the adventurer Guild and he seems to be lost he had no idea where the in he was staying was because buildings in this world looked way too much alike it looked just the same everywhere he went and for Japanese like him it was too difficult he let his guard down because he was with Liz and he couldn't even Remember his Inn's name the sun was setting so he wondered if Liz was worried suddenly he saw a girl with ears she was carrying a sword so she was an adventurer there was no one else he
could ask so he asked if she could show him the way to the Inn she pointed somewhere but he was still confused because he hadn't told her where it was yet and it could be her Inn she was talking about however she seemed Surprised he wondered if he asked the wrong person but she was the only one he could ask right now so he apologized if he scared her he showed his Adventurer card and stated that he had lost track of the Inn where he took a room and he was wondering if she could help
him look looking at his card she showed her Adventurer card too when he looked at her card he saw that she was a b rank Adventurer he couldn't believe this adorable young-looking girl ranked Higher than Liz she pointed at him and called him a lost Adventurer she said that she was Mel and she would help the way she talked was a little weird but Miyabi didn't say anything but thank her she told him to give her a hint he said that he remembered it was close to the east gate but he was talking to another
Adventurer so he didn't remember the details Mel suddenly got serious and asked if that Adventurer was a girl he said that she was about the same age as Him she then told him that the answer was that way and decided to take him there it didn't take long for her to drag him to the Inn he was staying at miabi was shocked she said that it was easy if he thought about it this was an inn where girls could stay safely and was the only one located near the East Gate alcohol was also forbidden so
even low ranks could stay here safely miabi realized that Liz was also thinking about his safety he thanked Mel and she Told him to do his best miabi decided to give something as a thanks he wanted to repay her with money but he couldn't just spare the money he had right now so he was going to craft something that would make her happy he could only gather lots of wood in the forest so he picked one he used his material disassembly it was an extension of inventory it could automatically disassemble materials in the inventory he
took out a wooden block and then Started carving the material with needed magic he created a cute animal with the block Mel looked at it and her cheeks got red she accepted his gift in yum Sakai no matter how much he made it it was nothing more than data so it it was nice to see when someone accepted it throughout the night the weather was so cold that he couldn't sleep he knew that there was no stove or no heater he decided to get breakfast to get warm and came across Liz they entered the dining
Room while talking about the weather he told her to sit and wait while he got something to eat when he turned back with warm soup and bread he accidentally touched lizz's hands which were freezing cold Liz explained that she had poor circulation but it was much better than the morning of escort requests she could eat warm food right away and there was no cold wind when she was making requests there were days when she couldn't sleep because her hands and Feet were so cold hearing that made miabi understand why she would want to hire a
supporter he assumed that she would be pleased if he carried extra blankets she would rather pay a silver coin every day for the right to have the priority to borrow it he thought people would be pissed at him for ripping her off she responded that he wouldn't be able to say that After experiencing a rainy morning she asked if he would rather hear a story about the ground Taking away his body heat or a story about the ground being too hard to sleep on hearing this miabi suggested stopped taking escort requests for now after breakfast
they went to the guild and tried to decide on their first request from the request board the requests brought to the adventurer's guild were posted by Rank and they were looking at the requests for c and d rank miabi noticed that elanar was putting some things on the board and the moment she Left people started fighting Liz explained that they were competing for the highest paying request from the enf rank requests miabi realized that if he became a solo Adventurer he had to become one of them so he decided to make sure Liz didn't leave
him Liz seemed upset that the request papers were all messed up even though the request was being made because someone needed help she put the papers back on the board miabi seemed impressed by her he asked Which request she was going to take and while they were looking at the request she chose a man saw them and he seemed annoyed miabi asked what kind of request it was and she explained that it was a request to eliminate ground sheep despite its loose name the rewards were getting higher miabi was worried if it would be okay
but Liz comforted him saying that she had defeated them before but she was sure it would take a few days Liz suddenly stopped in a line While there was a more open one she said that she preferred this one he saw that Eleanor was there so he concluded she was a fan of hers Liz was embarrassed and scolded him Liz asked if he wouldn't want to be sent off by a beautiful person but for Miyabi that was something an old man would wish for Liz denied it and said that it was a setting for her
little sister who was being sent off by her ideal sister but that sounded a lot worse to miabi when it was their turn Elanar seemed happy that Liz and miabi began their party activities but when she saw that the Quest was eliminating ground sheep she didn't seem pleased Liz stated that this would be a timeconsuming request so she might not be able to come to the guild for a while elanar told him to be careful of ground sheep's assault attack the reason the reward of this request was raised was because there were adventurers who had
just become C rank who took this request And failed she then told miabi to do his best without overdoing it she wished them the best of luck now miabi seemed to understand what Liz meant earlier when Elanor turned to him with kind words and a smile it inspired him as he was too A Simple Man Liz noticed that he was acting cool in front of Elanor as if he wasn't the one who criticized her earlier she was sure he had the mind of an old man she was right because he was actually an old man
in his 30s in the Western Plains Liz and Miyabi took a break Liz was surprised to see him having a lot of stamina even though he was a producer they had been walking since angelum and he wasn't tired at all as an adventurer Liz was surprised miabi responded that he didn't feel fatigued but this was more of an effect of his equipment than his own stamina his equipment was equipped with a stamina boost and fatigue reduction because producers tend to work long hours that Sounded amazing to Liz because this effect didn't exist in the magician's
equipment compared to vanguards magicians have a hard time building up their stamina she couldn't say that she wanted to take a rest because it would be inconvenient to others but there were times when she was pushing herself so she was a little jealous of him Miyabi mentioned that it was still important to take a break for safety reasons but still Liz couldn't say that when she was The only one tired and she understood why everyone wanted to go home early City Gates Clos at Sunset so if they don't get back by then they would have
to camp out in the wild this sounded like a salaryman who worked overtime and missed the last train he had that happen to him too when he missed the last train and had to walk home compared to this it was a blessing to live in another world of course there were some inconveniences but there were no shitty customer Complaints no shitty boss who pushed work on him and his coworker was a nice girl his mental health was also way better this was the kind of healing that people nowadays have been looking for while he was
lost in in his thoughts Liz was calling his name telling him to not sit there because she found the ground sheep they looked at the bush and there it was that ground sheep looked like a deer to him but Liz said that this was a deer no matter how he looked at it the Real one was further back behind the deer they saw a large ground sheep they are also known as the demons that make vanguards cry she heard that even 10 soldiers working together couldn't stand it and there was even a story about how
it destroyed a castle gate with its horn the trouble was they were also highly intelligent she said that they were going to work with their friends to pincer like what they had just done earlier some said they had prioritized The Magicians in the rear as targets as they walked behind the bushes Liz stated that the usual approach was to beat them from afar when they were isolated with monsters like that wandering around no wonder the roads were blocked miabi was sure no one would stand a chance if they got hit by a charge like this
miabi asked if anyone besides adventurers got hurt and she said that no such damage had occurred yet however this roadblock was a bit weird Liz said that there was A small village just down this road and for the villagers this road was a Lifeline since the demons showed up they must be having a hard time getting supplies that meant they had to be successful in this request and even as a support miabi had got to stay sharp Miyabi said that he would try not to cause her trouble he then asked if there was anything else
to keep in mind Liz said that the only thing they should watch out for was a charge when Liz Noticed that Miyabi was underestimating them she told him to never do that she said that they would keep attacking unless they were were severely injured and in terms of danger they might as well be a b rank request miabi concluded that as long as you don't inflict a fatal wound even they can't stop themselves Liz was puzzled miabi explained that those sheep were weak against surprise attacks he created a stone shovel and said that he would
dig A hole Liz tried to explain to him that demons were not simple creatures and if they were so dumb as to fall into pitfalls so easily they would all be out there digging they also had no time to dig a giant hole anyway while she was saying those things miabi created a giant hole in one second leaving her in shock he said that he understood what she was talking about but that was when she didn't count supporters as part of her Force he said that he was confident In making a pitfall Liz couldn't believe
what she was seeing and asked if he was a mole in his previous life miabi giggled and decided to finish this up quickly he placed large sheets of plywood over the hole and made sure everything was covered with Earth he scatters Meadow grass on top of it he said that if they leave it like that the way it grows would look unnatural so they blend it in with magic with this a safe cure and reliable reverse dut Pitfall was completed Liz was still in shock that it took him less than 10 minutes to finish this
it looks so real that she wasn't even sure there was a pitfall there now that the pitfall was ready Liz wasn't really sure what she should do miabi asked if the ground sheep were ferocious because if they noticed them they would come at them on their own he asked if she could use some magic to taunt them Liz did not expect him to ask her to taunt them using Yourself as bait against ground sheep was absurd but since he thought there was a chance of winning Liz decided to trust him even though it looked so
forced she used her Stone bullet magic to catch their attention and she did the Sheep were looking at them while they were having panic attacks over how they looked Liz was even more panicked when one started coming right at them miabi tried to calm her down but it was useless the more the Sheep got closer The more Liz lost her faith in this plan and was sure they would beat them headon she grabbed miabi as tight as possible while the Sheep was bleeded however unlike what she expected it started falling into the hole the moment
it stepped on the pit fall Liz couldn't believe it fell without even noticing however the other sheep seemed to notice the pitfalls so Liz thought they had no other way but to fight them to her surprise once again they started falling As they came at them Liz had no idea this would work like that and was shocked miabi explained how pitfalls worked as if she didn't know that he said that it was a simple structure but the deeper the hole the greater the fall damage and if anyone Falls from this hole they cannot fight even
though he explained it was still an unbelievable thing for Liz to see them defeating this many shei she was unsure about the power miabi Held in his hands meanwhile miabi was acting like a toddler when Liz said she wanted to talk to him about something important later he thought she was going to confess her love for him so she had to explain that it was about the pitfall she said that she was going to finish them off first and then he would tell her everything he knew she started using her magic seeing her using powerful
magic miabi suggested using a lighter spell because the enemies were wounded She couldn't do that because ground sheep were tough and she wanted to kill it in one shot so the material wouldn't degrade for that it was better to use a magic charge to increase the power she used ice Javelin and finished them all in one shot now that it was over she was still feeling weird that it didn't take them so long and hard to kill those sheep miabi said that craft could be used to her Advantage Liz noticed that miabi put a whole
ground sheep in his Inventory miabi was puzzled as to why she was confused because he thought it was the supporter's job to carry the monster they had killed Liz agreed with him but was still questioning what kind of inventory he had that could include ground keep on top of the dirt from the digging miabi was confused because an inventory was an inventory in his mind she knew that but she was talking about the capacity of his inventory however she gave up mid-sentence when she Noticed that he wasn't going to understand her she decided to collect
the sheep and take a break while taking a break Liz was enjoying her warm bread miabi was glad that she was enjoying it he thought it was in town and kept it in his inventory Liz asked once again how much stuff he could fit in his inventory and he said that he probably used only 1% now but she had no idea what that meant and wanted to skip it but he got frustrated and said that it was Something that grew in capacity relative to her skill level Liz was confused and asked what was skill level
miabi didn't even know the concept of skill level didn't existed in this world he said that if he kept using his crafting skill his inventory would expand and if he kept Gathering every day he would naturally build up his capacity in Yuma Sakai they would increase Gathering skills and eventually learn to maximize storage and become a walking Warehouse It had been called an aptitude skill but it wasn't uncommon for a serious crafter to have it he thought maximizing storage was common here and wondered if the method was different from the game Liz seemed like she
was thinking about some stuff when he asked she said that it was about her image of a crafter and apologized if she had offended him while blacksmiths and seamstresses were valued Crafters could make everything but the quality was not high the only work they Did was making cheap furniture and repairing walls which didn't pay much she said that it was one of the less fortunate production jobs she didn't know what kind of environment miabi had lived in so she assumed he couldn't do any Gathering outside without hiring an escort wolves and goblins were a threat
to those without combat skills and even if he spent the money to do some Gathering his inventory would fill up right away and the storage for the Materials was not free for the average crafter Gathering every day was very hard miabi didn't know what to tell her at this point the environment they had spent their lives in was too different in Yuma Sakai there was no such thing as difficulty in gathering materials all they had to do was to avoid the areas where the demons appeared but craft of this world couldn't even go around Gathering
and there was no way to increase the skill level because all They could do was to repair the walls and Furniture he felt sorry for them but it wasn't a problem he could solve since he also got his hands full himself miabi eventually responded that making money was hard no matter what kind of job you had and exemplified the fact that she got cold during escort duties Liz agreed and mentioned that adventurers have a high mortality rate but only a handful of them could become rich and famous he decided to change the subject before it
Got any weirder and said that he had a favor to asked her about the ground sheep she asked what was wrong and he said that he really wanted to have the wool she responded that he could do whatever he wanted with that originally The Guild was only going to sell the main parts and throw away the tool Miyabi thanked her and decided to dissemble the materials in the meantime Liz said that she had never thought she would get to bring home a whole ground Sheep horns were material for medicine Claws and Bones were for weapons
and armor and they also got edible meat this could be a record profit for them she started daydreaming about them splurging early this year and switching to an inn with a hot spring miabi joined her and said that it would be nice if there was a bath because all he did was wipe himself with a bucket of hot water Liz said that it was still good enough to be able to get some hot water her whole Mood suddenly changed and she said that she wouldn't let him break up the party for now even if he
gave her money back she said that the party was continuing miabi was glad that she wanted him to carry more demons for a more comfortable in he just wished she could be a little more subtle about it but he did hope they could keep the party going too because he didn't want to clean up the ditch he shook her hand and stated that he looked forward to working with her Liz apologized for saying something impulsive but their feelings were mutual so it was okay when they returned from the request elanar seemed surprised to see them
she asked if they had finished already and Liz responded that all of them acted separately miabi whispered to her asking why they weren't telling her the truth but Liz still had her Pride as an adventurer elanar was confused at first but was glad that both of them were doing well she then told them to Submit the material as proof Liz didn't know he dismantled the Sheep so she wanted to use the dismantling room but miabi informed her that he had already finished dismantling and started to get it out of the inventory in front of elor's
face she saw three sets of Claws and horns in the meat of two even the other adventurers seemed shocked miabi apologized that it was sticking out of the tray and asked if he should bring it somewhere else elanar smiled and stated That it was all right she said that they would bring it in right away and assess it suddenly some people entered the guild the people were just shocked by the amount of meat on the counter they started freaking out about the meat judging by their reaction Miyabi wanted to confirm if the ground sheep meat
was popular Liz explained that ground sheep was a healthy meat that even women could enjoy because of its light natural flavor since it was brought in within 3 Hours after it was killed the guild would freeze it and it could be eaten raw it was so popular that it had its enthusiasts miabi recalled what Liz said to him earlier and concluded that Liz liked ground sheep too she stated that she wouldn't eat them raw elanar came back and gave them 45 gold coins requesting a reward purchase of horns and Nails in good condition for 60
gold coins horns and nails were for 10 gold coins and the meat was 85 gold coins in Total they received 200 gold coins miabi said that he would rather get 30% just for carrying the luggage but she disagreed because no matter how she looked he deserved 70% miabi refused and stated that if he got 70% he was done as a person while also being in debt Liz started scolding him asking if he was planning to pay her back a dozen times over and told him to not hold back but if he accepted this it would
be like he was admitting he was a mole elanar asked What was up with this mole and they tried to act cool even when they went outside they couldn't decide how to split the money because Liz said that miabi was the one doing the most work but Miyabi said that it wasn't important because he was just a supporter her risk of injury was higher so she should get more and he would pay off his debt Liz thanked him for the way he thought but she said that it would be like he was paying her back
dozens of times already She asked how they were going to divide up the reward and he suggested 6 to four but she refused used and told him to get lower she suggested making five to five to be equal even though he didn't know if he deserved to get that much for being a supporter Liz didn't let him refuse this and told him that it was okay having made extra money by defeating the ground sheep miabi and Liz moved to a hot spring Inn right away but he miscalculated the lodging cost Upgrading from a business hotel
to a luxury hotel was a pain in his pocket however it felt nice to see people having a familiar Style with him Liz told him to go to the hotring but he said that he wanted to go shopping now Liz was confused so he told her to warm up and not worry about him they split up and Liz went to Hot Springs while he left the Inn a big request like they had yesterday must be rare so he figured that being an adventurer was tough this Is why he wanted to put his life in order
as soon as possible he was thinking about the food there will be times when he can't take a request and this is why they need to be prepared while still having money if the request was prolonged the food supply would be critical he wouldn't even splurge on the sweet and spicy sauce he just needed Salt he stopped at a stall and decided to buy them all the shop owner thought he was window shopping but when he Showed him the 10 gold coins he seemed to change his mind he then went to the condiment store and
bought salt and pepper last but not least he went to the dry goods store and bought what he needed he only had 49 gold money after all that shopping but he tried to convince himself that he could see it as an investment now it was time for him to go to the other thing they needed he went to a blacksmith and started looking around as expected of a real Professional the stone axe he made was nothing compared to the knives in the store he guessed that he couldn't compare weapon making with crafting skills a man
came and he asked Miyabi if he was a producer Miyabi was surprised and wondered how he knew that he was a producer he told him to look around weapons were meant to be used so what the matter was waight and feel when using it the only people who would look at it with a grin on their faces were Weapon enthusiasts or producers miabi didn't even realize that he was grinning before the man told him he apologized but the man told him not to he said that even he had taken a good look at weapons made
by other blacksmiths and it was normal for a Craftsman to do that m thanked and stated that he wanted a knife for self-defense he also asked if he could sell him some iron ore the man first asked his name miabi introduced himself and mentioned that he was a Supporter the man's name was Weiss and he was the third generation of this blacksmith he didn't know Crafters were making weapons nowadays and he liked it he told Miyabi to show him the weapon he made miabi was shocked but then realized that he misunderstood him all he wanted
was essential equipment for cooking like a stove it was required to eat jingisukan and this wasn't the best time to say it he eventually shows the axe he made while Weiss was examining the axe He hoped that it wouldn't be too primitive to be taken seriously but Weiss told him to follow him he took him to a room full of iron ore miabi was taken aback by the amount of iron ore he had he expressed his Surprise by saying that he had never seen piles of iron ore like that before he never even saw the
actual thing in the game Weiss prepared a big box of iron ore for him and mentioned that he also shared this much with his fledgling blacksmiths when Miabi asked how much he would charge him for that Weiss laughed and stated that no one expected to get paid from someone who makes an axe out of stone and he knew he didn't have any money because he was an adventurer and a crafter he would like to save some money but didn't want to get those for free so he wanted to pay but Weiss told him to take
it he said that if he made a weapon out of this iron ore he should come and show it to him because he was curious to see What kind of weapon he would make meanwhile all miabi could think about was the jingisukan he was going to make he said that to get it done in a way that he was not embarrassed to show Weiss it might take a long time when he left Weiss was thinking about the axe he made scraping was typical when cutting down a tree so he couldn't believe someone would use a
stone axe to cut down a tree now he had something to look forward to in his old age meanwhile Miyabi was lost again at least he remembered the name of the Inn now so he started walking while walking Mel appeared out of nowhere he teared up seeing her because he got lost again he asked her to show him the way again Mel pointed in the direction of the Inn but he said that he changed his lodging to a place called fate she was also staying at that in and she was just on her way back
they started walking together miabi was glad that he made it back to the Inn Safely he thanked Mel for her help again and shook her hands but it seemed like Mel was expecting something he realized that he should reward her now that he had bought a lot of crafting material he decided to make something fancy he poured some magic into the shape that he wanted to cut and cut it hand sewing was a hassle to do but he had his crafting skill so he poured some magic into the thread and made a magic path to
the part that he wanted to stitch the thread ran Through the magic path and after a few minutes a cute little plush was made miabi had one more step this was a trick that only Crafters could pull off he cloaked the surface with magic used ground sheep's wool and grew it all at once after making the adjustments it was all done he didn't even realize the crowd that was watching him while they were asking questions and praising him he apologized for keeping her waiting and thanked her for taking him to the Inn Mel blushed and
thanked him for using his name for the first time miabi was shocked that she remembered his name he hoped that this reward would help her remember his name and wasad glad that she liked that one as well Liz finished her bath and greeted him when she asked if she missed something miabi acted like he had no idea what happened and he tried to changed the topic by asking if she had been in the hot springs since he left she said that it was her third time Because the hot springs were great seeing her like that
made his heart pound a little faster than usual Liz suggested he get in too but miabi was just blushing thinking about how mature she looked Liz touched his cheeks and told him that he was very cold so he should take care of himself as an adventurer miabi started slapping himself to not let his intrusive thoughts thoughts win Liz was so confused and asked what was wrong and he Responded that he was cursing his filthiness he felt guilty because he had Wicked thoughts about a girl much younger than him he decided to go to a hot
spring while thinking about that in the next chapter we see miabi and Liz in Lumber Heaven 1 hour ago Liz informed miabi that today's requests were not good there were a lot of them because of the rain considering the condition of the ground a round trip was the best they could do because she would like to Avoid camping out in the mud as much as possible while they were putting on the papers that other ruined Liz suggested Gathering materials that matabi wanted back to the present Liz expressed her surprise about Miyabi miabi defended himself by
saying that a crafter can't stay calm once they hear about a gathering on top of that the variety of trees in this place was amazing it was a miracle that trees with different growing conditions were growing so Deeply together and he could tell when he was crafting that every tree had a different shade a different Sheen and a different feel to it the more he talked about the trees the more Liz got scared she told him to get whatever he wanted but to keep logging into this area because the sound of falling trees would attract
demons as she was talking the tree miabi cut disappeared and she thought she fell asleep for a moment but miabi explained that it was just her Crafter collection skill being activated Liz started laughing because there was no way a tree could go into his inventory without falling and she was glad that this was all just a dream but miabi did it once again proving that it wasn't a dream she decided to let it slide for now and it would be dangerous if she didn't keep on the lookout right now miabi continued until his Stone axe
broke an item's durability is determined by the material it was made of and when The durability reached zero it broke he would love to make an axe out of iron but iron ore was a valuable material here Liz told miabi that they were going to relocate once he finished with that tree miyaba wondered the reason so she explained that the forest was home to many demons and that if he cut too many trees it might cause problems in the ecosystem there was even a rule when he wanted to cut down trees in large numbers you
have to cut down from Different forests a little bit at a time Miyabi realized that he couldn't just take all he wanted without thinking like in the game Liz added that this was a rule for a country performing a large scale logging operation and it was unusual for an individual to worry about it as miabi was acting cute to her Liz suddenly stopped him and tried to hear something she kneeled and hid behind the bushes she then used her magic to kill an animal it looked huge to miabi but She said that this wolf was
one of the smaller ones he was surprised she could tell it was getting close because he didn't even notice anything at all Liz said that on Windy days it was easy to tell because any noise would be mixed in with the sound from the leaves miabi gave it a try but it was a fail she said that it might be a matter of experience and then pointed somewhere saying that there was another one over there Liz requested him to take the wolf to his Inventory because they could make money from it he did what she
said and they continued after a while Liz suggested taking a break but miabi didn't feel like sitting on the ground Liz said that it was still a bit wet but they could sit on the route and have lunch hearing the word lunch miabi regained his confidence and told Liz that it was a good time to count count on him he cut down some trees leveled the ground and built a whole pergola Liz freaked out Because they were in the wild forest and a splendid gazebo in the middle of it was too much miabi was still
confused so she told him to think about it for a moment he then realized that a blanket would be great since it would be cold here Liz was still displeased she said that it wasn't because he wasn't good she just never thought that crafting would be this insane she hated to admit it but the cushion didn't hurt her butt and it was warm the situation miabi Created was so comfortable that she was afraid she might miss the demons miabi told her to keep an eye on that issue because he did not want to have lunch
with the demons while Liz was resting miabi decided to make some food quickly because it might be a bad idea to stay here for too long he created a stove and turned to Liz to ask her to make some fire but she was melting because of how warm the blanket was he decided to make the fire himself he enchants fire and Applies attributes to material by injecting magic into it through the circuit however depending on the compatibility of the material and the attribute it may have adverse effects if he added too much fire to a
wooden material it would be become too hot he usually used it as a weapon in yum Sakai but it was impossible in this world all that was left was to stand in front of the stove and craft now it was time for jusin he put things on the table such as Jingisukan black tea and milk bread Liz decided to turn her brain off for a moment and only focus on eating the food was amazing the meat of the ground sheep was tender and not smelly at all hints of salt enhanced the flavor and even with
vegetables the flavor was not diminished at all he never had such competitive meat in his life even the bread was different the sweetness of the milk was amazing and it was very fluffy Miyabi made that Bread by crafting Liz told him to make some more next time because this was much tastier than the ones he bought she said that they would buy some flavor too but Miyabi smirked and showed her the sources he got they continued eating and they didn't leave the forest until sunset they ended up spending a lot of time together today Liz
noticed that he was having fun the whole time he confirmed her saying that he had a blast today but it was all thanks to her he Had fun today he can't detect demons on his own and didn't even know that there was a rule about logging so a pro like Liz was very helpful miabi said that crafting Gathering and eating tasty food was the life he had always dreamed of he wondered if Liz had a dream she was a little hesitant that he would laugh at her but he promised to not do that so she
said that she wanted to become an A- rank Adventurer and create her magic and with that magic she wanted to help a lot Of people that was a wonderful dream for miabi and he was sure she could make it a reality because even today she had been a great help Liz wondered about that because a rank Adventurer was a very far away dream the best she could do was intermediate level magic she said that she couldn't even use some intermediate magic and for a magician like her to become an a-rank adventurer would be very difficult
she paused for a moment and said that being an adventurer Requires Talent so it can't be helped miabi with full confidence on his face stated that he believed she could become an a-rank adventurer he said that those adventurers in front of them were covered in mud they traveled a long distance to make the request but they confronted the demon in a muddy forest with feet getting caught in the mud and mud splashing all over the place it was indeed a tough fight even the hair of the Archer who was supposed to be at the Rear
was stained with mud it was a good thing that they defeated the demon but thinking about the curfew they had time to wash and dry their hair they talked about carrying their things and washing them in the river near the city because if they were near the city even if they didn't dry out they could manage if they ran Liz smiled and said that there was no way anyone would do that it was true because he just made it all up the request was successful but had it gone Badly it might have ended in more
than just injuries on the other hand considering the weather and the condition of the party some adventurers chose not to take the request he wondered which adventurers were more reliable some adventurers would lend money if they were in need like Liz he told her that even if she could use intermediate level magic only he didn't think that would be a good reason to give up Liz seemed a little embarrassed And stated that she had never said she was giving up while strength was important it wasn't the only thing that mattered and they both both knew
that Liz told him to wait a little and started walking towards the adventurers in front of them in the next scene miabi is making dinner with fish he made grilled trout and salt crust Liz never thought she would get to eat freshly grilled fish in the middle of a request they normally eat simple food when Traveling because the smell could attract the demons and now miabi was making a different fancy meal every single day at this rate Liz was sure she would never be able to return to her old life but as miabi said she
didn't have to after another request ellanor thanked them for their hard work work and commented on how they seem to get used to partying together miabi responded that it was all thanks to lizz's decisions on the request but Liz refused And said that Miyabi could carry many things with him elanar also noticed that Liz had been smiling a lot lately Miyabi said that she had been smiling a lot since the first time they met and now she was just mad at him a lot Elanor responded that it was because she cared about him lizz's face
was all R so Elanor stopped at first miabi thought Liz was only admiring Elanor but then he realized that Elanor was also keeping an eye on her however to say that Liz cared About him was not quite the right word elanar then noticed that he had been taking a lot of gathering related requests lately and suggested he try a new request soon after she told that miabi realized that Liz was not doing what she was supposed to be doing which meant he was still being cared for by her he understood that it was risky to
take on a long-term request while also protecting your supporter and Liz had been very careful to make sure he Wouldn't get hurt however now that he knew lizz's dream and goals he wanted to support her goal the last thing he wanted was to get in the way of lizz's dream Liz asked what he was going to do after that because they had some free time miabi thought about practicing his enchantment Liz said she might go study some magic he reminded her to get some rest but she didn't want that they started teasing each other as
if they were having a fight but they both Couldn't stop laughing miabi then left there to practice her enchantment and he seemed to have a hard time enchantment was one of the most difficult systems in yum Sakai material and attribute had compatibility and if they were compatible it was relatively easy to allow the magic to pass through however if they were incompatible just touching the wall of the circuit would cause the magic to leak out any magic that leaks out would hurt the material that's why It was important to adjust the amount of magic but
it was indeed a difficult task he sometimes fails on purpose and uses it as a heat Source like the other day but that wasn't what he wanted to do today he focused and progressed slowly he needed to reach the deep end with the least amount of magic thankfully his efforts weren't wasted he managed to create a small thermal block the thermal blocks were for Liz so that she could put them in her room and don't need a Heater anymore but it would still be cold when they were outside so it wasn't a total satisfaction for
him he decided to make something easy to wear and wouldn't get in the way when traveling he could just add it to the undershirt he wanted to tell Liz about this as soon as possible he went to Liz happily and asked if he could borrow her undershirt Liz misunderstood him and started scolding him miabi didn't realize that it was sexual harassment to ask a girl To borrow her undershirt as he was lying on the floor he thought about what to do there was no way he could do that and the fact that it wasn't underwear
made it even creepier however using a robe or Main Equipment was a slot for heating the guardian came and informed him that they were closing the gate he went inside normally he would get lost here but he had a city map so he wasn't stupid enough to not learn he once again ran into Mel she immediately told him The way to the in but he said that he wasn't lost today Mel seemed upset because she wanted him to make a reward for her he eventually made a little bird for her Miyabi asked asked where she
was going at this hour and she responded that she was going to repair her weapon because it was a bit chipped but it wasn't a bit it was almost broken and even Miyabi's enchantment didn't work he said that he was interested in the repair of the sword so he wanted to join Her and she was okay with that when they went to Weiss's shop his reaction to Mel's sword scared the hell out of miabi apparently Mel always waits until her sword breaks he then noticed miabi there he said that he hadn't made the weapon yet
but he was here to observe the sword repair Weiss asked if he was acquainted with her and he confirmed him after scolding Mel Weiss explained that he got a lot of repair orders coming in so this might take a while he then asked miabi If he could at least synthesize materials Miyabi realized that he wanted him to take care of the repair and was shocked he couldn't say he didn't want to do that but if it fails the material used for synthesis would end up destroyed he said that Mel's sword was made from pretty good
material so he didn't want to trouble her Weiss stated that the opportunity to try this level of repair was very rare and besides magic manipulation was one of the Crafter Specialties that was true but miabi was still doubting whether he should do it to comfort him Weiss said that Mel got the money even though she kept breaking things and hated waiting miabi was so happy and wanted to confirm if she was really okay with that Mel responded by asking what he wanted as a reward the material was a dragon Fang which was a rare material
that sold at market value Weiss and Mel were cheering for him while he was preparing to repair What he was doing was similar to enchantment so he tried to focus the circuit was open and was linked now he needed needed to get the magic flowing to the damaged area but unlike enchantment he needed to manipulate the magic of the material which raised the level of difficulty Miyabi was so nervous that he forgot to breathe but that was okay because as long as he could talk he would be fine to Hype him up Weiss said that
he would share some Of the fangs with him if he managed to repair it using only one Weiss's intention seemed to be working on Miyabi and he got back to work right away the repairing process continued until midnight when he finished Weiss took a look at the sword and asked him if he could do it again later miabi couldn't believe he could ask him to do that again when it was clear that he was drained this was 100 times harder than he expected we explained that Repairing a highquality item was not a job for Crafters
miabi froze because he was contradicting himself he gave him two dragon fangs as an apology Miyabi didn't want to accept this because he got cocky and ended up breaking one but Weiss told him that he normally uses four of them to repair a sword like the one he repaired now in the end he took the dragon fangs and went to his Inn he let him off the bed once he arrived Liz was impressed that he was practicing too Hard on his enchantment in the morning he woke up pretty uncomfortable because he slept in the lobby
they went to the guild and Liz chose another gathering request miabi wanted to pick a different request and asked if a jade Forest investigation request would be okay Liz seemed uneasy and said that investigation type requests could affect the rank of other requests and she had never taken one before she thought it might be too early for them as they were Prone to encountering unknown demons miabi looked at her and it was confirmed that she was hesitating because of him Liz explained that during their fight with the ground sheep it worked out very well but
she was wondering what would happen if she missed something and things went wrong at that moment she wondered if she would be able to protect him properly and besides she could make a lot of money harvesting when he was with her that was true but Miyabi Reminded her that if she wanted to become a rank it would be better if she got more experience besides they didn't have to fight the demons or investigate the forest and if there was any danger they could hide in the ground Liz was confused as to why he chose the
ground so he explained that he was a mole in his previous life she seemed convinced and decided to accept the request this was their first time so miabi expected it to be a struggle but he was still Counting on Liz when they went to elanar she asked if this was her first time doing an investigation request and she responded that she wanted to try something new elanar was sure the two of them would be fine but she still warned them to be careful when conducting this investigation and if they felt they were in danger they
should withdraw without taking any chances Liz asked if something had happened and she explained that they already had some adventurers Headed to the Jade Forest the other day but they hadn't come back yet in the next scene miabi is still thinking about what elanar said he was being more careful because of what she said but it was more peaceful than he thought they had been investigating for half a day and they hadn't seen a single demon however it was the opposite Liz explained that the fact that they hadn't seen a single demon was weird for
Jade forest located Northeast of angelum it Was a forest with a rich ecosystem and it was also known to be inhabited by a lot lot of demons this was a precious Forest where medicinal herbs could be harvested so there were usually a lot of adventurers coming in and out of the area but since people started going missing this place had been off limits demons were the natural enemy of humans similarly humans were the natural enemy of demons then suddenly humans stopped coming and going Liz asked Miyabi what He thought would happen next miabi said that
it was convenient for the demon so their numbers would likely increase that was right demons had a fast breeding cycle and some even migrated in from other forests under normal circumstances the number of demons would increase and yet this request was made a pack of Gallow wolves whose main habitat was the Jade Forest had appeared in the northern kulana step and the need for an investigation of possible ecological Anomalies in the Jade forest was acknowledged the request was to investigate and report it it was indeed an odd situation Liz said that they would need to
take a lot of samples to see if something was going on she then continued to ask him to collect poop on the ground Miyabi was shocked and asked her to give him a little bit of consideration Liz smiled and reminded him that he was supposed to be supporting her to become an a rank at Night they went to a local Inn that had five silver coins per night miabi was so tired from the investigation all day there were no abnormalities with the tree sample they took in the end the only thing they saw was the
small animals there were some Oddities but they still had zero clue he was prepared for this but looked like this was going to take a while and even when they were done with the investigation they still had to put everything into a report now That he thought about it he didn't know how they were going to report they can't just submit material as proof all he did was collect samples and didn't record a single thing he let his guard down because Liz didn't give him any instruction but he tried not to blame others for that
because they were both new at this they were bound to make some mistakes it hadn't been long since the sun went down all he needed was paper a pencil and the map Liz gave him he Converted the demon bones into glue and crafted it with wood and the paper was done he used charcoal and wood to craft a pencil and while he was at it he crafted a diey from flowers and combined it with a pencil to make colored pencil paperwork and overtime were a piece of cake for him because of his previous life and
the strange thing was that he didn't hate it now he never thought he would get to use the things he learned from his previous life when he came over Here even in adventuring business there were a lot of things he had to work on the road in the morning he gave what he had made to Liz he said that he made a summary of yesterday's investigation and if they don't keep records then they wouldn't be able to make an accurate report later Liz seemed worried that took a long time to prepare this but miabi said
he went to bed before the date changed so he slept properly Liz decided to take a look at the summary And when she finished she decided to help him with this starting today but miabi assumed that she must be tired from scouting and the other stuff so he wanted to take care of those Liz responded that it would be more efficient if they split up the work she wanted to learn how to make that summary book miabi seemed surprised and found her diligent she said that it wasn't about being diligent or anything in the first
place they generally do the Request report verbally The Guild would be the one making the report and the idea of them making the report never crossed her mind miabi started freaking out about the fact that he spent hours and hours making something that was useless but Liz denied it and stated that this was exactly why she never noticed how amazing this was there were notes and colors and it was easy to read and now she could see some things in common that she wasn't aware of at the Time miabi was embarrassed that she liked it
this much miabi created an underlay for the paper to not let it slip off with this they could write down notes while walking Liz was amazed by the new things she was seeing she asked if that meant she could tell him if she found any signs of a demon and he would write a quick note and at night they could just put it all together their new goal was to show The Guild that Liz the adventurer was able to do a perfect job In investigating they started working and didn't stop investigating the forest for 5
days after 5 days they found a campfire they wondered who might have made it and started looking around Miyabi didn't seem to have any problem with assuming that the missing adventurers were the ones who made it he wondered if that would mean they were still in this Forest but Liz didn't have any idea it was hard to imagine them leaving while the campfire was still Assembled like that because the spark could ignite the surrounding area while it was still smoldering it needed to be doused or buried on the ground she said that it would be
more realistic to think that something had happened and that they had no time to take care of it she decided to stick around here today miabi decided to craft something he seed the large among of leaves that he got when collecting Logs with magic and put it over the branches he made a simple Camouflage base finally he laid down a cushion made of wool and it was done they could see the other side of the river and it was comfortable enough to do a long stake out Liz said she was terrified that she was no
longer surprised by that he wanted her to be surprised a little while they were on guard Duty Miyabi fell asleep and Liz immediately woke him up after he apologized for it she told him that the black orc which was a crank demon was Getting closer she said she knew that there was a monster trail but she never thought it was connected to that side he was glad that he didn't skimp on his magic and applied the smell ask right away however she said they were not supposed to inhabit that Forest then he asked if the
reason the other demons were moving out was because of them Liz said she couldn't say for sure but it was a strong possibility she said the black orc was a mutated species large in Stature and capable of socializing to the point of establishing a settlement perhaps they had a nest deep inside that Forest she told miabi to locate their Hideout and report it to the guild then they set off at the black orc settlement Liz and miabi saw that there were black Orcs every she said she had a feeling that it might be the case
but she could not believe they were multiplying that fast she realized that there was more of them Than she thought Liz said there was a problem with their numbers also but also when a herd of black Orcs grew large enough it would create a higher species with Superior intelligence the higher species would require a fighting force equivalent to an A- rank to take it down it was scary for miabi to fight with an A- rank demon he said they needed to go back and report it to the guild Liz said she wanted to but asked
if he remembered what she told him she said demons had a Fast breeding cycle if the environment was good the situation could change in just a few days and that was exactly what was happening right there Gathering members for the Strike Team would take at least 3 days then it might have been too late she apologized to miabi and told him that she might have ended up putting him In Harm's Way Miyabi said there must be something they could do as Miyabi asked Liz if there was something they could do Liz found a way miabi
Wrote the report he was writing that he had a general idea of the structure of the cave and looked like ke's plan was going to work he was sure that those black Orcs would not see that coming then he drove the black orc settlement's Underground map Liz seemed cold and told Miyabi that he had done the map in no time to think that he created that huge space underground however he said he had no idea that it would be so cold there Liz said they would just have to bear With it until morning and wanted
miabi to give her some blankets then she found a crafter there and asked miabi if he was thinking of spending the night in that condition he told her to just sit and watch to make a comfortable space miabi would start by making the foundation install the soft curved beams and columns he used a lot of wood for the ceiling and walls miabi used enchanting magic and put a luxurious glowing tree in the center of the huge Space underground he said that the tree would serve as lighting and fill the entire room with warm light for
Liz who was sensitive to the cold he would give that space more warmth and a comfy Dreamhouse was completed there was a bedroom where they could enjoy a good night sleep on a fluffy double bed and a private room for their peace of mind also there was a luminous tree that that had indirect lightning using an entire log that brightly illuminated the tree Room in the living space the heat blocks were arranged to look like firewood to simulate a fireplace satisfying even those with poor circulation since it didn't use fire it was safe to use
the underground also there was a dining space and a water basin at the dining space there were stump chairs and a roundwood table would provide warmth even underground the water basin for them to wash their hands at any time for water change miabi was sure that his Craft would surprise even Liz who was getting used to his crafting when his craft was done he showed it to Liz and she found it amazing she was surprised that he did all of that in such a short time Miyabi was disappointed that she did not have much reaction
to the Luminous tree even though he did everything like it was a bargain sale of Enchantment magic Liz realized that miabi even warmed up the floor without a hot spring lizz's hands and feet were Warm and relaxed it was like heaven miabi said he had been secretly adding fire elements to the floor as well Liz seemed extremely happy and told him not to just make a place more comfortable than a highclass hotel for a moment she totally forgot that there were black Orcs right above them the floor was so warm and comfy that Liz couldn't
help but lie down there she bet she could have gotten a good night's sleep just with a cushion on the floor miabi told Her that sleeping on the floor was unacceptable he had just the right thing for her then he showed Liz The Fluffy bed made of wool Liz immediately lay down there and found it amazing and it was like she was being wrapped in Wool she said it was like being hugged by a futon perfect for that cold weather she asked him if it was expensive he told her not to make him play along
he told her not to oversleep just because it was comfortable she said she was a c rank Adventurer so there was no way that she would oversleep she said her body would wake up on its own the next morning Liz overslept miabi knew that was going to happen when miabi tried to wake Liz up she said dad just one more minute miabi wondered who the hell she was calling Dad she smiled with a little shyness she asked him if they could start over with the wakeup part he told her that they couldn't do that and
went to wash her face when the sun rose miabi asked Liz If she was ready she said she was no longer sleepy then they decided to go the black Orcs were on the night shift and it was almost time for shift change the night shift was such a pain for them miabi and Liz appeared and the black Orcs realized that they were under attack Liza did a magic trick which was called ice Javelin but the black Orcs backfired Liz fell into the hole where miabi was in he told her that was a good job but
they decided to do the retreat Earlier next time there was the plan that Liz came up with operation mole she said considering the difference in strength a direct approach would be pretty much impossible since there would be many against one with no Vanguard their priority was to not get hit but she needed a few seconds of charging to activate the magic she would become defenseless during the charging and just a few seconds could be fatal to compensate for that weakness they would Need to install more passageways Liz would attract the enemy with magic from a
distance and then go underground enemies on the surface wouldn't know where she was coming from in the midst of the confusion she would finish them off with powerful magic they plan to repeat the process reduce their number and get the hell out Miyabi wondered what they were going to do if a higher species was born when they weren't looking it was not like there was only One in and out of the cave then figuring out the structure of the cave would be a priority from the looks of it it looked like they were in the
middle of a feast they wanted to dig an underground passage quickly and see if there was another that existed Liz thought she was the one who came up with that plan but things got crazy when miabi was around miabi wondered if they were going to do the plan that night Liz told him to do it at dawn she said she had been using a Smell mask for quite some time she didn't have enough Mana left to take on a black orc she said if only she could shoot magic indefinitely they were trying to find out
the numbers of the black Orcs they would fight Liz saw the fifth one and thought if they could keep the herd small enough not to spawn a higher species they would be fine suddenly miabi created a block and Liz thought that was what she thought but he made it first so that they avoided an Attack Liz asked miabi if she could say something weird and miabi asked what she was going to say she asked if he knew that black orc was very tasty she asked if they beat a lot of them they could get a
lot of meat too not only did they get a lot for selling it but they also get to keep some for themselves that was why Liz was thinking about taking them all down miabi seemed shocked that Liz wanted to beat them all Liz told him that doing a series of high-powered ice Javelin in a row was too much for her so for the remaining five she doubted she would be able to shoot them all which was why she wanted him to do something for her while a black orc asked the other one if he found
where Liz was and where she came from Liz yelled at them and told them that she was right there she killed an orc and just two shots left she killed them one by one but two of them came and told her that she would not get away they tried to get her while She was trying to run away meanwhile miabi dug a hole and saved Liz from them Liz asked Miyabi if he put everything in inventory he said he thought that he got everything then he showed a sword to Liz which had written may God
bless my beloved husband theodoris is on it and told her that was the sword the black orc had he said he was forecasting that it belonged to one of the missing people however Liz said she was glad but also sorry that he was dead but they could at Least bring back that sword to the person who was waiting for him miabi found her right and told her that was a nice way to think about that then they decided to finish the rest of the survey and go home miabi thought that maybe it was not his
fault and of course it was not lizz's fault either he thought he was unlucky that's all he kept trying to forget about it since it had nothing to do with him but he couldn't help but wonder about what kind of person he was He thought that Liz was amazing and wondered how she kept her mind clear Liz told miabi that coming to the guild made her feel like she was finally home it really took a while when they arrived they told Elanor that they were back Elanor welcomed them and told them she was worried because
they were over their scheduled days Liz said they were being careful until they got used to it elanar saw that both were uninjured and asked them if she had their report on the Investigation miabi told her to summarize black Orcs had appeared near the lake of the forest he said they also found many Gaya wolf bones in the vicinity of the place he gave gave him his notes and told elanar that it was the report that they had compiled from their investigation elanar wasn't expecting a written report but that was very polite of them however
she said the guild could make a written report for them then looked at it when they looked At it they were shocked that miabi made it alone miabi told them he oversaw the vegetation in soil data but to determine the estimate of the demon population he asked for lizz's help since she was the one with the knowledge Liz said she didn't know if that helped but they told her it helped elanar told them they made such detailed documentation and research in just 10 days even Guild staff would take one month to make it the guild
staff said he must have said that they Made the details of the black settlement report insanely fast miabi and Liz told them they did their best when elanar examined the black orc settlement report she saw that there were 11 black Orcs she was alarmed and said they needed an a rank Adventurer not even a B- rank to gather at once miabi told her to calm down as they already defeated them all the guild staff couldn't believe that and some said there was no way that was true while some said they were mistaking Another demon for
it and some beli they were just lying elanar asked Liz if she could get basic knowledge about demons and asked what the recommended rank was for defeating a black orc Liz told Elanor it was C rank Elanor said it was correct and told the guild staff that Liz was enough to defeat one however she said to fight 11 black Orcs was a different story a c rank party was not something a party of two could defeat the guild staff wondered what they got Wrong and they were sure that they exaggerated things to earn more contributions
some said they got impatient and they blew it elanar called out to miabi and he turned and said yes sir she told him to let her take out the meat then called out to all dismantling team members to gather immediately meat Prince has come back the dismantling team members wondered what kind of meat wall it was this time elanar told them that according to miabi it was a black Orc also she wanted them to appraise the subjugation proof they decided to get some extra bonus for sure and it was all thanks to the meat Prince
meanwhile miabi was overhearing gossip and people talking among themselves some of them were saying that Miyabi was the rumored meat Prince of the meat Kingdom While others said that he was a special inventory that held unlimited amounts of meat as expected of a meat Prince and some wondered if he would sell some for Them ellan said since the thing with the ground sheep happened the dismantling team had been calling miabi that name therefore she said she guessed that his nickname was that meat Prince and Cupid of Love Tower had a confrontation elanar said it was
even rumored by some of the adventurers lately miabi seemed extremely disappointed and wanted them to give him another and cooler name meanwhile Liz was trying to cheer miabi up she told him not to be so down and Told him that it was rare to find a supporter with another name then she started to call him the meat Prince he screamed at her in tears that even mole was a hundred times better than the meat Prince the chief of the dismantling team said as chief he was sure that every single one of those piles of meat
belonged to the black orc the chief asked how miabi managed to cut it so beautifully as there was not even a scratch from a knife on the joints that Was difficult to dismantle elanar was aware that it was truly Divine work a Godlike dismantling technique in another dimension of inventory on top of that Miyabi's reports were as detailed as the work of the king's office just what in the world was he elanar said other staff kept talking about it too and she was able to keep the ground sheep case unnoticed she was afraid she couldn't
cover for them this time the Guild Master said it looked like they had Another naughty one he wanted to talk with both of them elanar told them the higher up wished to speak with them in detail about the report they got anxious about if they had done something wrong Liz was so excited for the black orc barbecue and she wondered and asked miabi what could be better than top quality premium meat after A Hard Day's Work he said he was good with just getting paid meat sounded good for miabi but with the way his wallet's
looking Almost empty Liz didn't expect him to be a penny pincher she wondered what he was even buying she told him to live a little and not just shove everything in sayings Zion The Guild Master wanted to see miabi and Liz so they went to see him he introduced himself then he told C rank Adventurer Liz he would like to get straight to to the point regarding the request to investigate the Jade forest and prepare a report Zion asked if they had outside assistance in completing That request miabi was angry that he was accusing them
of fraud Liz told Zion that it was just them miabi and she were the only two people at the party she said miabi told Elanor if she knew that Liz would have never done something like that however Elanor said nothing miabi understood that the guild was taken aback at the quality of their work even Eleanor was shocked the Guild Master only knew them on paper it was only natural to be suspicious of a C- Rank And f- rank doing so well Zion told miabi and Liz that the guild placed High importance on survey requests so
they needed to have the experience to note security levels of cooperation among monsters and so forth that was why they limited those missions to C Rank and above miabi thought Zion was asking them to prove their innocence Zion told them how he could never ask for another adventurers help he asked them if they swear under oath there were no Falsehoods in their report Liz had a cloth wrapped around The Sword and took it off she said it was the one thing left out of the official report she said they found that in the black orc
settlement however she said it was all and she swore Zion the guildmaster looked at the sword and told them it was enough for him he said the inscription matched the name of their missing Adventurer he asked elanar if she could get in contact with his next of kin and Return the sword to them elanar asked if he was sure it was fine he told her that they had gotten their report their Guild history additionally Eleanor's testimony on their behalf said he never really suspected them that much in the first place as Liz was plenty competent
ellan her seemed concerned and asked if he was normally a more cautious man than that they looked at her Mission success rate and it was 98.2% miabi wondered why they were Bringing lizz's Mission statistics Zion said Liz worked her way up from the bottom and maintained excellent rates all the while he showed a book and said both the monster parts and meat her party provides were top quality he would hate to see Liz take her business elsewhere the information in that report would have been impossible degenerate without having been there he said he could see
no evidence of Fraud and last he heard it was innocent until proven Guilty Zion showed two pages of the book and told them those pages were all messages of heartfelt thanks from their clients over the years he believed lizz's word as an adventurer because she had earned that trust even so he said taking out 11 Orcs more or less solo didn't seem possible Liz said she was not sure even she could have done it and told him that Miyabi's help factored in somehow he asked if he took Vanguard or not Liz told him that the
fighting was Basically over by the time she got a shot in miabi said he just left all the fighting to Liz Zion said he would give them a minute to get their story straight Liz said miabi definitely took down at least two of them however miabi said he just did support work and that was it Zion wondered if they were Moonlighting as a comedy duo Liz closed Miyabi's mouth and told him that Miyabi's point of view was extremely biased to put it bluntly Liz said Miyabi Was a walking talking Warehouse Liz told Zion he had
seen how much black orc meat he was carting around but she watched him dig a massive hole and store all the dirt in about 6 seconds flat and called it support she said he probably got a whole forest's worth of Timber in there she guessed his storage capacity was bigger than the production Guild's Warehouse which was the biggest in angelum Miyabi told her to go right ahead and talk about him like he wasn't There Zion asked her to tell his side of it one more time but Liz told him that he heard her correctly the
first time she had given up on logic at that point Zion asked elanar if his storage was limited to meat she said those were just rumors Miyabi said he had to cut in and told told them extended storage could hold way more than just meat he said they would buy whatever materials he didn't want to keep and told Elanor to guide them to the warehouse Liz bowed Respectfully to Zion and told him that she was very grateful that she trusted her Zion said he looked forward to more exemplary results from her Zion was staring at
her so she asked if there was something else he said he was just getting a little nostalgic and that was all Zion said he saw her inherited it well he said that stuff of hers used to belong to her father he said he saw that insanely hardworking man had raised an insane hardworking daughter who had Grown up wonderfully meanwhile miabi and Elanor arrived at the warehouse where miabi found it huge Elanor said she was afraid it didn't hold a candle to the ones the production Guild had she said she wasn't sure if he knew that
but originally adventurer's main source of income was mission rewards even for her each payout felt more like a temporary bonus than a steady job Miyabi asked her if she was an adventurer she said she took up her current post after her party Was dissolved it had been nearly 3 years now since it had been some time since Elanor had led the adventurer's life old kills like dismantling were slow to return Elanor asked if it was too easy to cut himself while ripping fangs from a Jawbone she said he must have some sort of trick for
getting around it he was surprised that she was looking for tips and thought if he said he just used a material acquisition skill she would have no idea what he meant therefore he Said he was just good with his hands she asked again if it was just really a matter of dexterity he told her that aside now that Liz wasn't there there was something he wanted to ask her about he asked asked if his share of the survey Mission rewards could go to the bereaved family of that sword's owner elanar responded that the reward was
to be split evenly between the two of them and it amounts to about 100 gold she asked if he was sure and miabi stated That he had got the cash to buy raw materials so he was good she found it sweet but naive and asked if he was going to foro his salary every time a mission had a casualty miabi didn't really know how to put it in words he said that he didn't know what was going to happen in the future but this time he had made up his mind he wanted to follow his
gut and do things his own way he just didn't want a heavy heart to weigh him down he knew it sounded selfish but It wasn't like it would bankrupt him and he wasn't talking about giving up half of his income forever elanar responded that there was a nonprofit fund that collected donations for the families of Fallen adventurers so she would handle the arrangements for him this time but she warned him to not forget that the reward money was fair compensation in exchange for adventurers risking their lives and he must not dismiss its value so casually
they ended their Conversation there and Elanor left 2 days later she informed Liz and Miyabi that it was determined that their contributions to this Mission went above and beyond what was requested for their reward they gained 910 gold coins as miabi was calculating how much yen this amount would be elanar added that they could deposit this with them if they would like miabi hoped that this money would help them even though it wasn't enough in addition to Miyabi's monetary Rewards it had been decided that he would be promoted to d rank this was something that
they both didn't expect miabi was shocked and Confused because she skipped over E-class there elanar explained that it was certainly rare for a support class to skip ranks but he had made such great contributions to the guild that they wanted to invest in his future he wondered what the Guild Master was thinking ellanor stated that if an F rank were to be known to have received Such Hefty reward money it could cause trouble for him for example they were currently earning more than the average B rank Adventurer including Eleanor Miyabi thanked her for thinking of
them elanar politely smiled and responded that they would all prefer it if he would continue to provide support because the guild stands to profit from him quite a bit they were about to leave after sending their regards to the Guild Master but Elanor remembered that she Needed to confirm something with Liz she quoted her words and then asked if she would like the donation to be anonymous this time as well Liz panicked and tried to stop her she said that she put the instructions in the report Elanor apologized and smiled miabi seemed confused but then
figured out that when Elanor warned him against dropping half his salary frequently she was talking about that he seemed amazed and couldn't stop looking at Liz but this made her Blush and scold him with that their mission was officially completed that was lizz's first runin with black Orcs And her first run in with the Guild Master too she was freaking out so bad that she thought she was going to have a heart attack miabi agreed with her and then mentioned that it was time for something Liz was puzzled and asked if he was talking about
the Gathering he did want to do that too but before that he wanted to host a victory party he Prepared A Feast for her eyes and eventually for her stomach it was his black orc meat Chinese cuisine special Liz was confused because she had no idea what Chinese cuisine meant and asked if it wasn't just normal cooking miabi ignored her questions and asked her to tell him what her favorite Cuts were and he would handle the grilling she refused to make him do this all by himself but miabi insisted that he would be the one
who grills Liz was still confused Because it would be done too fast and it wouldn't be fun anymore she then noticed something that kind of looked like a break so she tasted it however there was something inside the bun which was pretty good miabi explained that they were meat stuffed bow which was perfect for the cold weather The Filling was stewed until it was fork tender The Filling contrasted with the smooth dough and it wasn't as fluffy as milk bread so it was the perfect texture Liz was Melting by how juicy and sweet this bun
was after this delicious bun miabi got her hooked and she was curious to see what else he got miabi served another delicious food and she was so interested she also noticed the table where the food plates were being served the table was moving miabi said that he wouldn't serve traditional Chinese food without it she had no clue what he was talking about but she was sure it was hand while spinning the table miabi warned her There was no need to spin back to where it started suddenly Mel appeared out of nowhere and scared both of
them she greeted them while eating the meat buns and explained that she smelled meat miabi was surprised that Liz knew her but Liz was also surprised that Miyabi knew Mel who was a famous B- rank Adventurer they decided to calm down and explain how they met by coincidence Mel said that miabi was always getting lost she then remembered something and told Miabi that the blacksmith was looking for him to talk to him about something he asked if he meant mentioned what he needed him for Liz was shocked that he even knew Master Weiss Liz asked
if he had any clue who Master Weiss was miabi said that he was a really nice blacksmith and asked if he was famous Liz and Mel looked at each other and decided to take him to Weiss when Weiss saw them together he asked what she was doing together with him she said that They were partying together he seemed surprised and asked if she would mind if he borrowed him for a minute as their conversation continued miabi felt left out again so he joined the conversation and asked Liz how she knew Mr Weiss Liz explained that
this man was black Iron Weiss he was a master Craftsman acknowledged by the royal family and he was also sort of her adoptive father miabi was shocked when he heard that Weiss thanked him for keeping an eye on Liz for him the loading wheel inside Miyabi's head was about to stop spinning now because he was so confused but he didn't even get to question her real dad because Weiss would reveal why he was looking for him he said the regional Lord of angelum Duke beldini was looking to renovate his mansion and asked him if he
was interested in Sinking his teeth in Liz and miabi were both taken aback by this miabi was also confused as to why he would be doing that so Weiss Explained that he put Weiss in charge of selecting personnel and he could pick whoever he wanted miabi thought this was like jumping in front of a gun a little Liz stopped him and started scolding him she said that he could make all sorts of connections doing custom work for the Duke she said that he would be working under a project manager and if he wanted to make
an impression he would have to go AP [ __ ] after that Miyabi didn't have any choice but to accept it at the Angelum Western quarter the residences of the aristocracy sprawl out over a gently slow sloping Hillside in the center of it all is the estate of Duke beldini Miyabi Weiss and Liz arrived there and Weiss left them after informing them that they would start the day after tomorrow and sleeping Arrangements were already taken care of miabi was glad he remembered to bring a change of clothes he just barely managed to weasel his way
in here and he may not Have planned for this to happen but he would have to be crazy to not make the most of a great opportunity because it was not so common for anybody to see the inside of a nobleman's Swanky estate as he was walking around with the others he noticed one of the flowers was withering a man came and explained to him that that variant was known as The seia Rose and it was a cultivar characterized by its hardiness and versatility but it was native to a country with a much warmer Climate
than here as he was talking about what happened to the Rose miabi was trying to figure out who he was and why he was so close Weiss came and told him that if he insisted on meeting everyone in person it would be a problem this man was Duke Trent beldini the night before departure Liz was making miabi study about the Duke to not make a fool of himself she said that she would quiz him and asked what he could tell her about the Lord of angelum who Governs this territory miabi responded that the belini house
was one of the five Great ducal houses the Duke was granted full authority over the Northern Territories by the central government of Foria nowadays the head of the house was Duke Trent beldini renowned for being equal parts enthusiastic and eccentric she told him to keep in mind that if he wanted to be head of a major Noble house he had to graduate at the top of his class in the Royal Academy of magic in The angelum ter teritory he encouraged the growth of the three major guilds and even had the authority to impose restrictions on
the territories of other Nobles if it came down to it in angelum he put weight behind supporting free trade and the expansion of the export Market as long as you meet the rank requirements you could take whatever job you liked and as long as you had the money you could buy whatever goods and services you liked it was pretty great Liz actually came to this town and fell in love with adventuring miabi noticed that his subjects were pretty loyal to him that wasn't wrong but when she said eccentric she wasn't kidding back to the present
miabi was with the people Weiss picked and he couldn't help but feel nervous in all fairness he was warned the feudal Lord was a weirdo but he could handle something at the level of chatting up strangers like they were old friends more to the point all those Workmen seemed a little too serious to him the Duke Trent beldini apologized for keeping them all waiting and introduced himself he then stated to Weiss that he was honored he accepted his request he then suddenly made eye contact with miabi while miabi was thinking how weird that was he
explained that the Mansion seemed Splendid on the exterior but it had been over 30 years since the inside was updated these days it was starting to show its age and it Would only get worse from here the original intention was a simple refresh of the manner but they were living in the modern era that's why he asked them to employ interior design reflective of that fact he wanted them to show him meaningful Innovations have faith in the path of their choosing and let nothing hold them back from achieving their goals with their own two hands
miabi seemed so impressed by his speech that his cheeks got red he was looking Forward to working with his fellow Craftsmen when they were in the storage room someone threw a hammer at his head an aggressiv looking guy started yelling at him he loudly warned him to be careful if he had both his eye on sucking up to the boss because he was his chosen successor apparently they call him iron skin Sid miabi was so puzzled so he just said okay when he said it was impressive to get a nickname already someone joined them and
Mentioned that he picked it himself he introduced himself as the brother of self-proclaimed iron skin Sid miabi apologized for budding in and explained that he wasn't trying to disrupt anybody's workflow by being there the older brother stated that it was okay and he was sure Weiss roped him in for a good reason speaking of which Weiss came and told everyone that they didn't have the free time to chitchat and reminded them that this job was for an old friend Of his so he Stak the reputation of his business on the results of this renovation job
as the project manager he was given rough outlines of what the client wanted for each area of the Mansion so they should have had the time to review the documents later after that he told them to start working Miyabi's main goal was to make himself useful too so he asked what he should be doing Weiss gave him a paper and a pen miabi was confused he told miabi that he had Something else in mind for him he said that he was the Project Lead miabi started freaking out because he didn't give him a blueprint he
just can't make up whatever he wants Weiss wasn't bothered by his tantrum and stated that he tried coming up with something the fake would like and came up blank and he also must start the construction today miabi couldn't believe him because there was no way he wouldn't plan this already we brought a kid and stated that he was Giving him and the kid in charge of the primary bath the kid was so nervous and shy that he screamed at him while greeting him when Weiss left miabi sat there and thought about why this was happening
to him but at least the kid he gave him didn't look like a bad kid it was incredible how 75% of his bodily volume could scrunch up like that the biggest problem was the bathroom he couldn't just [ __ ] his way through the complicated design a bathroom Required but he then noticed that this was a golden opportunity the pre-existing structure just needed a light refresh so he could leave most of it in place it was just the interior design that needed some sprucing up in other words he could focus on Aesthetics which was his
favorite he didn't even need to worry about the budget as he started drawing the kid wanted to say something miabi asked what he needed and then realized that he hadn't introduced Himself the kid's name was Karen but he was so nervous that he couldn't hear him straight and kept calling him Karen he said that he had to come up with a design before they could get started and asked if he could start on the demo work in the meantime as he kept calling her Karen he seemed pretty mad but miabi didn't understand this at all
when they finished they showed them to the Duke he said that they resembled the traditional designs of the Elvin tribe and the other Was like the save dwarfes architectural Styles which he called fairly mundane miabi was shocked he went back to the bathroom while thinking about what to do because he drew everything as outlandish as possible and he still called it mundane like he had seen it a million times before he guessed that fantasy architecture in a fantasy world was just regular boring architecture dream world was always a high Fantasy game the Aesthetics from the
Furnishings to the Architecture were designed to suit the genre by the best graphic designers in the industry so he started to brainstorm about what he could do in this world which so closely resembled a dream world meanwhile Karen was doing the demo but the progress didn't seem to be moving he noticed that he was carrying all that stuff by himself which was pretty hard and told him to put it in his inventory judging by his reaction miabi wasn't sure if he had an inventory so he asked Luckily he did have an inventory but right now
it was full of his lunch boxes he said that he had got enough fresh food to last him 2 weeks miabi recalled the time Liz told him that Crafters weren't regarded very highly among the production jobs miabi wanted to borrow the hammer in his hand and with one blow he was able to shatter the whole floor Karen kept calling him Master but he didn't want to be called like that but he had already made up his mind that he Would be his disciple in his heart he wanted him to teach him what he did earlier
miabi said that he gets it automatically when you level up the skill and he just practiced crafting a lot he was so sleepy but Karen didn't let him and expressed his interest in his Talent however Miyabi wasn't sure if he would see that as a talent because he could remember being in his shoes he said that if he hadn't tried he might have the talent too the next morning the Demolition was done Karen was once again amazed that it got done in the blink of an eye miabi remembered that he had something to ask him
he asked if he knew what that pitl looking thing was for Karen seemed puzzled but before he answered the Duke once again came out of nowhere and explained that it was a reservoir for boiling water Miyabi's Soul left his body once again but Duke beldini was unbothered and continued to explain that once the water was boiled It was carried to the bath by the bucket miabi seemed surprised he said that he knew there was no running water but this sounded like a tough job Duke said that he had a servant with Fire magic who could
heat the water beautifully but alas old age forced him to retire it was not the most glorious of jobs so that could be the reason why it was hard to replace him he then asked him if he had come up with a good idea yet miabi stated that he had another design he Would like to show him or more accurately he had added some things to the Bas design the Duke decided to just sit there and wait like a normal person the new design pays homage to another game one produced by a different company than
the dream world developers so he was almost sure it would work however the Duke stated that based on the architecture this seemed to be from the Elvish marcarian Dynasty at the end of the day Weiss was Reporting the progress they had made everything except the bath worked smoothly Weiss said that if it were that easy to please the Duke there wouldn't be any fun in it Duke stated that he actually approved the bath design he showed him in the final drafts but Weiss knew he was curious deep down Duke admitted that it was a bad
habit of his that if there was real potential in something he just couldn't bring himself to give up on it part way Duke said that Weiss did double down on his whole show me the original thing and he was turning into an unreasonable old man just like the rest of them Weiss said that he felt like he had a long way to go even though they called him Master Craftsman it all came down to how well he could give the client what he envisioned but he expected great things from the new batch of greenhorns he
hired when Liz arrived at the park elanar was reading her book apologizing for being late ellanor Didn't mind her and complimented her outfit Liz said that it had been so long since they had been on a date and she was worried she would embarrass her if she showed up looking like an adventurer it took her a while to get her clothes ready it was a lot easier when miabi was with her elanar wasn't sure if using someone else's inventory as her personal closet was a good idea which made her Panic that she was rude come
to think of it Elanor realized that she hadn't seen Miabi around the guild lately Liz explained that miabi got invited to help out with the renovation of the Lord's mansion elanar didn't seem to expect something like that meanwhile Miyabi was quitting this renovation business it had been 3 days since then and every single design he had pitched had been rejected by the Duke and so the renovation of the bathroom had been at a complete standstill with that being the case he Decided to familiarize himself more with styles of architecture native to this world at the
Duke's library and he couldn't ask Karen to help out since he got drafted to use his magic to help with another project the image of the Duke telling him to show him something he had never seen before made him freak out again because that was too vague for him his only condition was that he made something that looked nothing like a bathroom but it didn't work that way Somehow this feeling was not an unfamiliar one to him in his previous life he had the same incident with his boss who wanted the deliverables on spec but
refused to adjust timelines his friends were telling him the importance of listening to the client and thinking about the client's perspective wandering around lost in thought had succeeded in getting him actually lost looking around everything was equally luxurious so it all looked the same to him he noticed a Path outside and decided to go there to see where he was a maid appeared and firmly stated that if he was looking for the construction site it wasn't there he was happy to see a maiden and responded that he got lost but the maiden didn't seem so
friendly she told him that access past this point was denied for those who were not members of this household he then asked if she could tell him how far they were and she responded that the bath was next door She wanted to guide him there to be polite miabi said he could find his way if she could just give her the directions because he thought she was busy but she insisted that she would guide him as they walked together Miyabi introduced himself and said he was working on a construction project but the more he tried
to have a conversation the more she became unresponsive realizing that the conversation sucks he felt like he was being left alone with An awkward stranger flailing for small talk topics he couldn't stand the awkward silence and just wanted to arrive at the bathroom to his luck he saw Mel playing with her puppies a beautiful woman that was right next to Mel asked who he was she was the one who was playing with Mel just now introduced miabi as the guy who was good at getting lost to brag Miyabi mentioned that he was promoted to drank
the other day the woman's garments were of superior Quality and her voice was very refined her name was chiffon beldini miabi realized that she was the daughter of the Duke to change the subject miabi asked what they were doing in here apart from taking out a hit on Mr bear chiffon responded that she and Mel had always played pretend like this it got a little heated and her hand slipped and Mr bear accidentally took a tumble into the dirt the Sullen maid Alicia wish they had called for her instead of rinsing him Chiffon told her
that she should handle washing her own things now and then Mel then asked why he was there and if he was lost again miabi said if someone randomly gets lost and wanders into the Lord's mansion that was its can of worms he admitted that he did get lost but that was Nery here or there the favor Mr Weiss asked him to help out with the renovation job here he then decided not to lie and said he got saddled with the entire design of the primary bath and it Wasn't going well hearing that chiffon seemed like
she heard about him before she said that she must be incredibly skilled to be trusted with the entire design phase at such a young age she imagined it must be difficult to suit her father's tastes she stated that her father was terribly busy all the time so she knew he treasured the rare opportunities to relax in the bath she greatly looked forward to seeing what he would come up with that said she also Mentioned that she couldn't give him any direct assistance so at the end of the day it was none of their business melan
chiffon continued washing the bear while watching them wash the bear Miyabi was thinking about what chiffon said thoughts he had in mind flew through his head and he had an idea he immediately stood up and asked Alicia to guide him to wherever Duke beldini was right now when he explained his idea to the Duke for the first time he saw his pleased Face after that Karen came to the bathroom in shock because he heard that the design got approved he happily confirmed him and apologized for keeping him waiting so long but at last they could
finally begin the real work Karen was once again Amazed by Miyabi the fact that he designed something the Duke himself acknowledged was truly unbelievable he wanted to help and said if he could figure out how to use that special move He showed him before maybe one day he might become a master Craftsman just like him he started to nag miabi to teach him because he was sick and tired of being useless Master Weiss was kind enough to hire him to his Workshop lots of them could use magic but when he used his it was garbage
he hated the fact that everyone was doing their best while he just sat back and watched them Miyabi realized that his eyes on Karen were dead serious this time in this world This was the first fellow Craftsman he had met and if he had arrived with nothing he wondered if he could have found himself in his shoes he wanted to do something to help him he had no clue if this would work out but he was willing to try this made Karen so happy first things first miabi asked Karen what he could do at his
current skill level he was confident with making hammers as he does it all the time he harvested the wood shaped components and Assembled them miabi asked him why he didn't use any crafting related skills he explained that when he tried to do it like that it came out looking pretty bad so the finished product had poor form Fidelity and with how long it took to fix the shape using the crafting skill didn't end up saving him more time it was possible his skills were just unique to Miyabi but Karen got a functional inventory and other
clas Bisk magical skills knowing that the foundational Skills were all there makes it much more likely that there was a viable solution and this solution was to level up they had got a whole bathroom to renovate that requires those very skills sure enough there seemed to be a path forward miabi then asked Karen to use his crafting skills to make him 5,000 of those little blocks he explained that at that quantity making them by hand wasn't feasible and he would be forced to practice his handicraft skill which was Necessary for improving the skill he pointed
out that this was crucial work that would form the heart of the bath he asked if he could give it his best and even though he seemed uneasy about it he told him to consider it done Karen went to a corner to make the blocks there had to be a reason why Weiss would bring a small child to a high stakes construction site like this so he wondered if he thought they could help each other what with both of them being Crafters while Karen handled the preparation of the blocks miabi started to work too he
made an automatic temperature controlled bathtub the components were simple to make just slapping either a water or fire magic attribute onto a stone block and it was done the water Enchanted blocks produce the water and the fire Enchanted blocks can be activated to change the water's temperature as needed he placed them in an alternating pattern around the Perimeter of the bath and put a continuous supply of hot water everything seemed to be working well and now nobody had to make a 100 trips to a well with a bucket better yet the well could be made
completely obsolete he needed to take stock of the available building materials while he was working we saw him and apparently he heard that he got permission to get started he wanted to see how his design turned out but before he gave him the design Miyabi Told him to be nice to him because he worked so hard taking on his unreasonable request this whole time this made Weiss laugh he noticed that there was an automatic production of water and then the means to heat it and was pretty impressed with it Miyabi didn't seem to have any
reason to be humble and explained that he figured by splitting up the enhancement you could take advantage of each component to get results without over complicating things He was really proud of his work suddenly while Miyabi was still talking about his projects Weiss suggested he head back immediately Karen came in a hurry and informed him that they had a problem the bath was overflowing with Alicia and the other maiden's help they cleaned up everything and left miabi apologized for the inconvenience he caused Weiss reminded him that that's what happens when he sets something up to
produce infinite water with no drainage miabi Felt like he was being scolded by his mother but Karen found it odd that baths had always used a lot of hot water anyway and wondered how they drained it all before Weiss explained that the mansion's fracture was more than 30 years old and back then the standard was just levitating it out with magic so there was never drainage installed in the first place so the plumbing was just one more thing he was going to have to build from scratch as they had never Heard of the word Plumbing
he explained to them Weiss stated that there were two problems with his plan first the design of his original bathtub was terrible miabi asked if it was because checkerboard patterns were ugly but it wasn't that it was how the cubes were all lined up he thought it got the water nice and hot Weiss told him to take off his shoes and try it himself when he did his feet burned Weiss explained that enchantment effects could be scaled up Or down based on the amount of magical power you put in so while it was amazing that
he could boil water with enchantments alone if he used blocks with that much heat output he would singe his skin off the second problem was that it was all this Stone the foundation of the Duke's Mansion was built more studly than most each Stone stone block was enormous and they were layered three deep to install proper drainage he would need some way of Removing some of the foundation miabi didn't understand why that would be a problem Karen revealed proudly that his master's special move could make short work of that he decided that it would be
appropriate to show this special move to clear the question marks in his mind and showed it Weiss was even more confused as to what exactly miabi was after digging miabi mentioned that he had a thought while he was digging and Weiss seemed to notice that already as he had A horrible expression on his face he actually got that reaction so many times that he was used to it Miyabi stated that since the heat output of the blocks was fixed he thought about installing a separate water heating tank he explained how it worked and Weiss wondered
why the water automatically drained into the river miabi responded that he couldn't figure out a way around it with how the water kept getting generated it seemed like a terrible shame to waste all that Water when Weiss mentioned that to commoners like them it would seem like a luxury he recalled his days at the first in he was staying in which had nothing but a cold bucket he said that just dumping hot water into the river may have been a mistake to begin with because it might affect the local fish populations Karen asked if it
wouldn't be fine if it was cooled off by the time it reached the river like blowing on soup to cool it the three of Them started brainstorming their ideas that night Elanor came back to inform Zion The Guild Master of the adventurers Guild that she heard a rather curious story While She Was Out she told him that a certain Adventurer was doing contract work for the production Guild without a work request submitted back at the Duke's Mansion two workers noted noticed that Karen and miabi were up late all night every day and wondered what they
were doing miabi said he was Working up a prototype for the reliefs he wanted to use in tomorrow's build they suggested he leave that for the morning as his health would be ruined if he stayed up late every night he said that he was fine and he was nearly finished anyway it was just no matter what he carved these pedals didn't come out looking quite right the other workers were also interested in his prototype Sid was also there and he also wondered what was going on seeing what They were talking about he got excited and
told him that he was going to impart some of his infinite wisdom he confidently told him to leave it to the incomparable Sid to everyone's surprise Sid did a jaw-dropping job Miyabi was speechless by how delicate and fresh the pedals looked he had no idea that blacksmiths could do this sort of thing The Men Who heard him burst into laughter because of his reaction Sid's brother explained that Sid was not a Blacksmith but a sculptor miabi was even more shocked because he thought all of them worked at a Smithy he responded that it was more
of a jack of all trades Workshop there were all types even if their boss focused on blacksmithing there were Smiths like him of course but also a handful of eccentrics like a sculptor who wanted to get into the blacksmithing trade as far as they were concerned official classes were trivial if a Craftsman wanted to craft no one Would stop him that was part of why everyone was so loyal both to each other and to Weiss miabi did think it was odd even though renovating a Lord's Mansion was such a high-profile project a lot of the
workers he saw were pretty young it was indeed a rare opportunity for the young ones everyone was counting on them and that's why they were aiming to never ever disgrace the name of the black Iron with the quality of their work suddenly miabi was startled by Karen's scream but He had a pretty good reason because he finally managed to make one instantaneously block with his craft skill miabi with the exact same expression on his face watched him do it again he was so happy that Karen was leveling up while Karen was excited that he could
finally mass-produce them miabi asked him to imbue them all with wind magic not only Karen but everyone was also shocked by his request later it was explained to him that enchantments alone Were difficult enough so doing hundreds in a single day was considered highly Advanced magic the next day miabi took his time examining the Prototype Sid helped him with and decided to ask for sculpting tips from him Sid couldn't believe he barged into his job site for this he didn't see any point in helping him and besides nobody thought his rough draft was ugly so
it should be fine miabi responded that his original work might be considered good enough but if He was going to make something he thought he should strive for his very best and not just good enough Sid seemed touch at first but then called him a sore loser he said that he was just so torqued he couldn't measure up to a real sculptor miabi defended himself by saying that there was nothing wrong with wanting to win at stuff and that ambition was what made the world go round eventually Sid decided to teach him sculpting only after
work hours Miabi was surprised because he thought he would say no but Sid said that it was no skin off his back and he liked seeing him knock off his high horse after work Sid started teaching him the basics while the Duke was watching them from his room Karen miabi and the others worked very hard for their jobs day and night and their hard work was acknowledged by Weiss one day after work Sid and his brother were talking with the other workers all they needed was For Sid to do a last minute bit of construction
and they were done he also commented how odd it was for the Duke himself to join them on a site inspection all that was left was Miyabi's bathroom the Duke and Weiss arrived at the entrance of the bathroom and asked if he was prepared to show him what he had with great confidence miabi stated that he could show him whenever he was ready first things first they checked the dressing room as they were Examining the room Karen whispered how nervous he was miabi joined him because he wasn't used to having a client evaluate his work
directly like this the Duke found no issues with the dressing room miabi had confidence in what he had done so far but it was still impossible to not be nervous even good could be terrible if it falls short of expectations now it was time to move on to the next room and there it was the Duke's Mansion large primary bath Renovated before they go ahead with the inspection there are a few things miabi wanted to mention he showed the Glorious relaxation and Healing Center explaining that they wanted to construct this public bath around the theme
of relaxation the place was themed Like An Open Garden giving the bather a soft and relaxing space Karen's little blocks produced air that kept the water moving and bathers could alternate between the bathing area and the state-of-the-art Steam sauna to achieve the perfect balance for health and wellness the previous design featured very traditional sculptural accents and in the new design they included four different styles of indoor hot springs now it was possible to enjoy this greenhouse Garden even in the depths of Winter the Duke mentioned that even though he started a bit bumpy it seemed
to have gone well now he also recalled something else he showed him in the Plans that he hadn't seen miabi gave the signal to the workers on the roof and they covered the glass roof with a big black cover in an official inspection everything needed to go according to plan although it was a scene he already saw in the blueprints there was nothing so beautiful as the harmony between gentle lightning and nature Miyabi mentioned that this was one of the statues that was originally in the public bath he couldn't bear to Chuck it Out because
it was such a lovely piece of art so he wanted to pay homage to the new design prioritizing the function of healing the body and mind without sacrificing Beauty through tasteful Decor was exactly what the Duke wanted to see it was the start of a new era he poly thanked miabi for his hard work miabi practically took this job on a whim but he met a fellow crafter for the first time and he made a new friend who was never honest about his feelings and Met kind people who helped him out when he was in
trouble he had a few miserable failures but he sure wouldn't trade it for anything this Joy alone was more than enough for him the Duke wanted to begin the actual inspection now Miyabi mentioned that the plumbing was finished according to the specifications and he could test it now the Duke took off his clothes and enjoyed the warm water for a while and miabi questioned in his mind if he needed to be here for this part at The dinner miabi was surprised at how different the Duke could be when he was with them and when he
was doing the Lord's business he wondered if they were supposed to be here because this was a reception party for ARIS Aristocrats and he felt like commoners being here might get them in trouble Weiss told him that they were invited and there was no need to hold back for propriety sake he then commented how unexpected it was for him to build not one but four bathtubs miabi Explained that he got the idea from the spa in his hometown when he first started pitching ideas everything he tried was a complete dud he started flailing wondering if
the man just wanted to see something bizar but that was completely missing the point the Duke's knowledge base was damn near encyclopedic his mansion was packed to the gills with prolific art if he was surrounded himself with so much Beauty he assumed the Duke would only ever want More of the same but it was just the opposite chiffon off-hand comment about how his father barely had time to take care of himself made him realize that all he wanted was a calming place to unwind the soothing sounds of the waterfall for tired ears a visual design
that doesn't strain the eye while maintaining the Dignity of a nobleman's manner and W accents to tie it together it would have been easy if he had just gone with traditional Japanese Architecture but if he had done that it wouldn't have been true to his style he was sure Sid was just going to accuse him of being a sore loser again Weiss was really glad he took him up on the job Sid and his brothers called for Miyabi and mentioned how good the food was meanwhile the Duke was in the bathroom when chiffon greeted him
she informed him that she had finished seeing the last of the guests home the Duke was glad that her daughter saved Him from the Lord Chamberlain talking for the life of him to change the subject chiffon mentioned that winter was fast approaching and it was late at night but the bathroom was still so warm the Duke mentioned that it was something that he crafted and invented himself the hot water that wasn't used for the bath was circulated under the flooring to keep the temperature consistent if only in this room it was possible to raise even
plants that grow in tropical Climates his poor withered sepia roses had been replanted and given New Life chiffon was glad and joked about how it would look just like his father's hair curls when they flower in Spring she wondered if they could grow the flowers of the royal Capital here she asked if he had thought about planting anything new in the garden but he wanted to keep that a secret even from his daughter chiffon noticed the original blueprint and pointed to the line there that Heading in the direction of the city the next day Liz
was dragging miabi somewhere as he was a slow Walker miabi was so tired as he just got home yesterday and didn't think they should be speeding but Liz didn't want to be late wondering what they could be late for Liz informed him that it was over there it looked like a bunch of folks beat them there it was actually the opening of the hot water for waiting the folks gathered to enjoy the by putting Their legs into the water miabi remembered that due to the technological limitations of Enchanted masonry hot water was going to be
produced constantly before they could drain the excess into the river it had to travel through long-distance duct work and some of the residual head was dispersed into the green houses but on top of that he wanted to float the idea of a publicly accessible waiting pool Liz had been looking forward to this while miabi Forgot about it because of the rush he was in they enjoyed the warm water and chatted for a while after that Liz mentioned that Ellen or asked that he pop his head once he got back he wondered what she needed and
she responded that she just knew she specified the time and date which was off for her in the guild Master's room Liz miabi Zion and Elanor were facing each other in a weird silence Elanor broke this odd silence and left them Alone in the room Zion stated that the adventurer's guild was contracted by the production Guild without his knowledge or permission Liz and miabi expressed how sorry they were miabi stated that he didn't know it was going to be a big deal and didn't even consider it Liz recommended he take the job without thinking about
the consequences so she was also feeling guilty Zion stated that he was at fault too for not expecting this of them he didn't mind it but he Would just prefer that they give him a warning next time to some extent they were out of the woods because it was Master Weiss who made the request dealing with him had prepared Zion for dealing with miabi actually because he never got permission for anything he reminded them to be careful in the future because they were attracting a lot of attention he took out a request paper and stated
that he had gotten a mission specifically requesting the two Of them from this point on they would be meeting with the client and confirming details directly because the client in question was Duke belini himself the two didn't expect him to appear like that and immediately started whispering miabi asked if Dukes normally pop up all over the place like daisies like that but the answer was obvious Liz didn't expect him to go this far when she told him to impress him as it was obvious that they were gossiping Zion told them to gossip A little quieter
right in front of the Duke they pulled themselves together and then Liz introduced herself Duke didn't want any formalities and told them to be comfortable he told miabi that he had marveled at the quality of his craftsmanship so he was surprised when Weiss told him he was an adventurer by trade he mentioned that his party included someone else and got him interested Liz stated that she was nothing out of the ordinary compared to Miyabi but Duke told her to not be so humble because he read up on her achievements it was true that the length
of her experience wouldn't ordinarily qualify her to take a request from the nobility but the road from here to the capital was 150 Liz long and he wanted protection he could trust for her daughter for the journey miabi realized that this was the perfect chance for Liz to shine Liz stated bravely that she was eager to fulfill his request however a Lengthy escort mission may be difficult for them because escorts usually require the support of a mage in the rear guard not inclusive of additional Personnel they would need at least two for the Vanguard and
another person to shore up the rear guard unless they had enough people to guarantee the success of this Mission they couldn't in good faith accept his request the Duke responded that she was as thorough as he heard he said that additional Personnel had Already been scouted for this it was a round party and a B- rank Adventurer he believed her concerns had been addressed the A- rank party was the Red Cliff and the B- rank Adventurer was actually Mel in coordination with these people the Duke asked them to accomplish one thing proving their worth without
so much as a moment of rest miabi and Liz were setting out again this time on a mission to escort the daughter of a Duke chiffon their destination was the magic Academy In the Royal Capital the other members of the escort party were more than qualified and if anything they were there as a bonus meanwhile the Duke had given them an additional bit of instruction it was proving their worth when they left the Duke's Manor miabi noticed that Liz hadn't said a word to comfort her miabi reminded her that if she didn't want to go
on the escort Mission it wasn't too late to refuse she wanted to do it as chances like this Don't just grow on trees but she had some concerns before they could talk about their problems they saw elanar the Guild Master had told them to get in touch with elanar and she told them to follow her and she would guide them through the procedures while walking she congratulated them on the Duke's request and mentioned their careers unusualness however Miyabi was far more unusual than she could ever hope to be he didn't even know if having nobility
request you was That weird elanar responded that the only adventurers who get requests from the nobility tend to be B rank or higher without name recognition public trust and a long list of achievements it was unheard of Simply Having accepted such a request would make them Stand Out Among peers Liz assumed that this was supposed to be a test more than anything to see whether they were worth trusting elanar asked if the Duke said that and she said that he told them to prove their worth In other words if they can't prove that they were
useful he would have no use for them she also pointed out that he neglected to tell them the departure date which she assumed was part of the test because you can't trust someone so careless as to forget to ask about that miabi didn't agree with her and thought she was overthinking because the Duke was not some kind of mustache twirling evil mastermind the girls found it so cute how he phrased like that and how Pure of heart he was they explained to him that the nobles were very different from the common folk the way they
think defies Common Sense miabi knew they grew up in very different worlds but he wondered how they viewed their place in the world somehow he felt like he would regret asking as they were walking they finally met the other adventurers in the escort Mission when Liz saw them she told miabi to stay very quiet and very still as she hid behind miabi the Adventurer group walked past them miabi couldn't help but ask if she was okay as she was s a lot hearing lizz's name the girl from the adventure group stopped and turned to them
her whole mood changed when she confirmed that Liz was there she immediately cuddled her and tried to tease her as if she were a baby the other members of the group also seemed happy to see her Miyabi's jaw dropped seeing them baby her like that Liz explained that the redcliff guys Were old friends of hers she then introduced the members the woman was the Healer Laura the big guy was Tyson the tank and darte was the swash buckler with those long distinctive ears miabi figured that Laura was an elf which only made it weirder that
she speaks in the canai dialect Elanor explained that Laura speaks with the conventional Elven accent Dart asked who miabi was he introduced himself to them and explained that he partied with Liz and would be Working with them as support he definitely didn't expect them to act like it was the end of the world Laura didn't believe that their party was just a boy and a girl alone together but elanar confirmed them while Laura was trying to process that the sweet girl she raised was partying with a boy Tyson said if she was serious about her
relationship he would swallow his tears and cheer them on Dart the scary one asked if he was prepared to protect Liz Even if it should cost him his life Miyabi asked if they knew what the word support meant but they had no reaction to that question Dart repeated his question with the same expression and tone so he realized that his options were answering with yes or yes but he didn't think he could just say that he responded that he wasn't sure what they meant when they talked about being prepared to protect Liz when she was
objectively better at this than he was She was a strong and capable Adventurer he just wanted Liz to spend her adventures in Comfort because that was what he could do to help even though he thought he had given a good answer Dart concluded that he wanted to make Liz the happiest girl in the world he leaned on him saying that his declaration of war had been received and if he was willing to go that far he must think about what it means to spend an adventure in comfort and show them his resolve they Were going
to make sure he was a suitable man for their darling Liz on this journey and if he valued their relationship he should be capable of at least this Miyabi had no idea how he came to that conclusion but had no choice but to accept after getting over lizz's old friends they went to Weiss to start the preparations and told him what happened Liz was pretty upset that they showed up while she was trying to avoid them miabi Asked Liz if she had always been like this with them she explained that all three of them were
veterans with the popularity and talent to prove it so of course she was always the odd one out her biological father was a former member of Red Cliff when she was little all members would play with her between missions back then they were just humoring a cute little girl but 8 years ago her father was killed during a mission miabi recalled the time she Introduced Weiss as her adoptive father and understood why she introduced him like that Liz continued to explain that after her father died everyone got super overprotective of her and it was tough
for her which he could imagine was only exacerbated by her trying to keep her distance after that Liz apologized for confusing miabi and explained that her staff was only made for her dad Weiss teasingly HIIT her to stop her from saying depressing things like that she Ran off to be an adventurer and now the only time she came home was to get her weapons fixed up Weiss didn't seem to be pleased by this habit of hers but they still seemed to be on good terms he was guessing Weiss and lizz's father were close friends in
the past but he still wondered what this careful distance between them was while he was wondering things Weiss asked what their plan with the escort mission was and wondered if they were planning on turning it down Just because Red Cliff was coming along Liz responded that she was still doing it because it would be foolish to miss this chance but she was just a little concerned after telling Weiss about what DART said Weiss told him that on a scale of 1 to 10 he scored an 89 in screwing up unless they cleared up the misunderstanding
soon this was going to spiral out of control Miyabi seriously wondered if he hadn't made it clear that he was just support staff he got the Sense they didn't absorb a single word he said back there Liz calmly stated that they were in this mess because they had absorbed what he said miabi then created a relationship diagnosis chart in his head and asked if they thought they were dating and Liz confirmed him she also told him to to fix it after thinking it through for a moment miabi made his stupid idea expression he denied that
his ideas hadn't been that bad in the past so Liz changed the word Stupid with Bonkers Yonkers he believed that he had come up with a much better plan and this way they didn't even need to clear up misunderstandings his idea was to just let them have the wrong idea meanwhile elanar was working at The Guild while the other workers were talking about red Cliffe she didn't seem to be a fan of them unlike the others 8 years ago Heroes were born when the monster Stampede descended on the Royal capital Now they were respected adventurers
famous the world over so she was quite puzzled as to how exactly they ended up like this acting cute towards her to get information about Liz in the next scene lizz's door knocked and it was the person she admired Elanor she was happy to see her and asked what brought her there they invited her inside and brought some tea elanar apologized for the intrusion miabi said it was fine but they were both sure she was here because They screwed up again and were ready to apologize ellan her comforted him that she didn't come here to
scold them she was here because she needed them to confirm an update to the mission parameters urgently when Elanor gave her the big news lizz's scream could be heard all over the city she couldn't believe she was the leader of the mission 1 hour earlier the redcliff had a request for Elanor when she asked what they wanted Dart stated that they would Like Liz to be named leader of the mission she was shocked and asked if they were all okay with that they confirmed that they were all of the same idea that Liz has to
be the leader of chiffon escort Mission ellar stated that typically Mission leaders should be of the highest rank in the party Dart responded that it was more of an implication and less of a hard rule she asked them why they were doing this and they said it was a fun little surprise From them to Liz Elanor realized that she had not been informed of this Liz freaked out because she didn't know how she was supposed to order a and b ranks around Eleanor responded that she already had written permission from the client and it was
just an offer she was under no obligation to accept Liz found it insane that Duke beldini saw this and approved it seeing Liz upset miabi tried to cheer her up by saying that she was being trusted with more responsibilities And that there were just more opportunities to impress the Duke and give him what he wanted her contributions would be recognized better this way but this didn't help as Liz said people would talk about how a rank party redcliff handed command over to a c rank nobody and they all just nodded along like it was fine
just thinking about the public scrutiny this would put her under made her sweat she seemed sick of problems suddenly spawning out of the Woodwork meanwhile Duke beldini was talking with her Alicia asking what she wanted to confirm she said that she had been informed of the recent updates and she would like to ask his true intentions in appointing unproven Personnel beldini stated that Red Cliff was the one who requested it and they were so enthusiastic about pushing it so he saw no reason to refuse Alicia then asked if they had not overstepped their bounds she
crossed the line when she Asked if playing alone was a higher priority than her daughter's safety she realized that when Belinda glared at her firmly this was enough to stop her so bolini smiled and stated that he knew how it must look and he was grateful that she was always thinking of safety but she didn't need to question his decisions and only think about fulfilling her Duty when the preparations were done everyone was at the Gate of the city Miyabi was very Happy to see Liz he asked if her backpack was the only luggage she
was bringing and she confirmed it with him she gave her luggage to him and said she was counting on him as a support guy redcliffe arrived with their enormous luggage it was pretty obvious that they packed so many things to test miabi Liz scolded every one of them especially Dy who was speaking weirdly when he was a middle-aged guy Dart remind her that they wanted him to show them the meaning Of comfort Dart told Miyabi to not even think about claiming to be support if he can't even handle a little luggage Miyabi thought he was
a bold one if he really thought he could challenge him even knowing his esteeming moniker Miyabi walked towards dart's luggage bravely and put his luggage inside his inventory like it was nothing he moved Laura and Tyson's bags and moved them with ease the group started whispering about how he managed to cram all that Into his inventory proving the rumors were underestimating him Liz called them over and pointed out how irresp responsible of luggage they had for a bunch of experienced adventurers was sure Miyabi's inventory capacity could handle it just fine but in any other circumstance
it would have had to be loaded onto the carriage she told them to reflect on their sins and they listened to her she stated that they were the ones who nominated her as Leader and they should at least pretend to respect her Authority miabi informed Liz that the client was there Duke beldini chiffon Alicia and the Guild Master were together Liz respectfully kneeled to the Duke and stated that for the two weeks it would take to reach the capital she was going to take full responsibility for their safety the Duke found her quite reliable and
then introduced his daughter chiffon and her attending mate Alicia guildmaster Mentioned that even he was a little nervous an escort Mission with an A- rank party was a precious opportunity for Liz to gain experience as a squad leader and he was looking forward to her Mission success report after that they all got ready to head out miabi asked where Mel was and Liz responded that she was taking a nap in the carriage as she offered to cover the night shifts Duke reminded chiffon to not forg get to write home often and with that the Escort
Mission started when it was time for lunch Miyabi found a good stopping point to eat redcliff members agreed and Laura stated that it was time for trial number two food preparation was the support team's job so they had high expectations from miabi when Miyabi showed the setup he prepared everyone was shocked Liz noticed that it was different than usual and miabi explained that the normal setup seemed a bit too small for this number of people the Red Cliff team wanted an explanation but he told them to hold that thought for a bit while he went
to whip up some lunch for everyone Miyabi was grinning as his fish plan was off to a great start Miyabi felt sorry for dragging chiffon and Alicia into their Petty squabbles but promised himself to make it up to them he kindly offered them a seat Alicia realized that she was sitting down with chiffon and immediately stood up but chiffon told her to let miabi handle This one after a while Dart smelled something amazing when he went to take a look he saw stewed vegetables and oxtail for lunch he questioned how he had time to do
that and miabi responded that it was already packed in his inventory to make a negative comment Dart said he couldn't serve strong smelling food in the woods as it would attract monsters but when they tasted everyone stopped talking and focused on eating Mel came and asked if she could have a little More after lunch Liz looked at her map and noticed that somehow this was going pretty smoothly they were having a better time walking than he thought they would Dart once again started teasing him and told him that even though he was exhausted there was
no time to relax Miyabi responded that he had plenty of stamina to spare he mentioned that once the daylight was gone setting up a comfortable Camp was an absolute necessity after the luggage and the food This was the obvious next trial he could see this coming from a mile away so he told Liz to let him have this moment Dart then ordered him to show the tent he had prepared knowing their expectations miabi showed them the whole house he bought opening the door he invited them inside for a tour they were flabbergasted by him bringing
a whole house as a camp he wanted an explanation of this but Miyabi thought he was asking about the horses D corrected him saying That they wanted an explanation about everything they were seeing as if it was nothing miabi noticed that he forgot to pave a Road between the house and the Stables so he just started doing that Dart couldn't believe he was looking at the ground when something unheard of in the course of human history had gone down he found it weird that a whole house had sprung up from nowhere he was also annoyed
by the face miabi was making he asked Liz to say something to Him but Liz was already listening to him talking about the dibs in the bedroom under the tower miabi was so happy that his plan was working that was how he had chosen to respond to Red Cliff's Antics if he could lure them into accepting this at face value eventually they would shut down and stop thinking about anything at all he even called it the if it makes no sense just give up strategy after all Liz got used to it pretty fast especially when
compared to how she was At first but apparently they were dedicated to not conceding defeat just yet Dart said a barebones building could hardly be called comfortable but Liz responded that if it kept them out of the rain and the wind it was good enough the worst part of adventuring was the cold and the hunger in other words Dart said he wouldn't hand Liz over to him if this house was cold and drafty they head inside and face a warm interior the house was pretty good miabi looked at The Red Cliff and realized that he
killed them but he decided that they would be fine and started on the dinner meanwhile Alicia was looking at them confused chiffon took a warm bath and was still in disbelief that she would be able to take a bath while traveling she asked what was in their room and Alicia explained that it was their Cottage she assumed she would be spending the night in the main house but miabi suggested that a Lumber party with just the two of Them would be more relaxing Alicia felt guilty and apologized for not being able to attend to her
she told Alicia to not starve herself because she had been driving the carriage all day and must be exhausted now as Alicia was her only maid she didn't want to sit around feeling useless chiffon acknowledged her feelings and stated that she had never once thought that there was anything she couldn't do in all the long years she had been serving her she sat in front of Her and embraced her while comforting her by saying she was doing a wonderful job long journey could put a terrible strain on the body and Noble blood to does not
negate that fact or at least that was typical while lying down Alicia noticed that compared to the beds in the Mansion this mattress was softer she started to think about today and felt bad for not being able to help even once her lady said it wasn't an issue but she just could not accept that she tried to Be calm because when the morning came she would do better on the second day of escort Duty it was raining miabi woke up and found Mel drenching he brought her a blanket and asked if anything interesting happened overnight
she said that nothing happened except redcliff snores almost louder than the rain Liz came and informed Miyabi that they might have to delay their departure they had to wait for a lull in the rain miabi asked if the downpour didn't stop soon And how bad it would be for their schedule she responded that it was only this bad at the moment the weather around this region was notoriously Mercurial she decided to check around midday to see if it had let up at all if not they could afford to spend one more night here while miabi
Was preparing breakfast Mel was watching him she said that she took the night watch all by herself and deserved a special treat just for her miabi prepared delicious Ramen seeing Mel's Ramen Lizz wanted to have some too miabi asked if she was sure it wouldn't be too heavy to eat in the morning she didn't even know what he meant by heavy miabi realized that he was underestimating the stomach of a teenager it was about time so he decided to wake up the oldtimers they knocked on their door but no one answered at first miabi assumed
they just overslept but it was too late in the day for that Alicia went outside because of their noises and Miabi greeted her she asked what time it was and Liz told her not to worry as they were delaying leaving until the rain let up a bit miabi mentioned that the Red Cliff guys overslept too Alicia asked if breakfast was served and he said it was before that miabi asked if she would like to change clothes or brush her hair first Alicia realized that she was in her sheer pajamas and had apocalyptic bed hair she
immediately slammed the door on Them and went inside Liz called Miyabi a stone cold bastard because of his rudeness after getting ready Alicia apologized because she wish to make amends for her mistakes she told him to tell him if there was anything he would like to eat and she would prepare it miabi responded that cooking wasn't something she needed to be worrying about but she responded firmly that she didn't make the distinction chiffon joined them and giggled she mentioned How Alicia had an unparalleled sense of personal responsibility she suggested letting her have her way if
it wouldn't bother anyone she said that she was looking forward to working with him after that the rain didn't stop and they decided to stay another day waiting to see what would happen as for Red Cliff they apologized to him they didn't wake up until late in the afternoon and were appropriately shamefaced miabi prepared the ramen he made for Liz and they got Back to their old selves after knocking back some of it Miyabi was patiently waiting for them to get used to it as he was going to have them as desensitized as Liz was
one day the next day the weather looked safe to set out today once again Liz came to Miyabi's window and asked for food Alicia welcomed miabi into the kitchen she said that she couldn't oversleep 2 days in a row chiffon giggled and revealed that she left out the fact that she slept on the Floor to avoid getting sucked into the pillows again miabi always knew she was tough and serious so he didn't say anything to embarrass her more Alicia asked if the preparations for breakfast were underway miabi couldn't help but admit to himself that she
was awfully cute meanwhile guildmaster Zion encountered production guildmaster jorgie he asked jorgie if he had been waiting long Zion was trying to avoid him a little longer but it was helpless Now he respectfully bowed and apologized for the inconvenience with the renovation contract jorgie was a grumpy man and said it was a waste of time and effort he started scolding him for not being able to keep a leash on his own Guild members and hired a worthless idiot he told him to consider himself lucky he didn't Blacklist him or cut off all business with the
guild Zion was Furious but didn't say anything to make the situation worse he said that he Should have taken more care and promised to be more attentive in the future the grumpy man jorgie left without answering the Duke beldini popped out of nowhere and commented how jorgi never outgrew his hatred of Crafters he was glad she decided to swing by there was something beldini wanted to show Zion he took him to the bathroom miabi made Zion couldn't hide his shock he commented that it was hard to imagine even professionals being able to produce this the
Duke said many Crafters an inferior and could only make worthless garbage yet he could hold his own next to countless promising youth all are armed with little more than extra dimensional space known as an inventory thanks to this he was able to establish connections with the other great dukal houses the Duke wondered how miabi appeared in his eyes he told Zion that Adventurer Miyabi was going to become a foothold for angelum the distance from angelum to the capital was Roughly 150 Lees so they must make it there in 2 weeks or less from first light
until sundown they made the Trek on foot it was Hardo for the party but it kept raining they were on their sixth day of the mission and were stuck inside the house again chiffon mentioned that at this rate she may be late to the capital Liz apologized and explained that they had no choice but to hold up for a while miabi asked if the school would start before they got there and She explained that she was mostly concerned she might fall behind in her studies she admitted that she might be making poor excuses but while
home at angelum she studied mostly territorial management skills and socialized with powerful guilds or other Aristocrats her value was purely political as the feudal Lord's daughter and successor inclusive of travel time one's studies tend to fall behind over the course of The Long Winter vacation and to compensate for That lapse the teacher prepares additional assignments for them upon their return it seemed when they arrived she was afraid consecutive all nighters may be required Liz asked if she had a rough idea of which sections she would be covering when she got back and she said she
did Liz with a red face asked if she could try to tutor her if she didn't mind even though she was surprised at first she accepted and they started studying while they were talking Miabi and Laura were watching them with absolutely no clue in their minds miabi was surprised that Laura didn't understand them as she had a Spellbook on her belt she took out the book and showed him what was inside she explained that intuitively he would think an adventurer carrying a book would be well-versed in magical theory that was never much of her style
she certainly didn't have the chops to teach Theory to a noble girl looking at Liz Laura Realized that she was just like her father chiffon was amazed by what she was learning she then wondered where she studied she said that she was self-taught chiffon was surprised because she heard Weiss raise her Liz didn't want to impose and couldn't bear asking Weiss for the tuition money so she got a job with the adventurers Guild and studied in their Library instead chiffon still couldn't believe that they were becoming acquainted with a Tremendous woman like her Liz was
so touched but stated that all she could do was regurgitate Theory while they were talking they were interrupted by Laura's sneeze Liz told her to put on a shirt regardless the weather was so weird it was too early for the rainy season to be hitting them so she wondered what was causing this rain Dart arrived and told the girls that they needed to hold an urgent meeting now he swung through the village nearest here they said the Weather had been the same for a solid week The Village's Adventure Guild Branch gave him the last 5
years worth of weather reports Liz checked the reports and noticed that their rainy season had come early which meant the rain wasn't going to let up but beyond the rain they had a bigger problem which was the snow surrounding the Royal Capital were high peaks forming natural fortifications the further they travel from the valley the higher their Altitude and the lower the temperature would be if they had made a better time they would have had a shot at beating the worst of the snowstorms on their Journey from Tomorrow onwards Liz and miabi needed to ride
in the carriage Liz asked if he meant that miabi and Liz were going to be treated like luggage he said that they needed to double their footstep and the plan was to Sprint for 8 hours straight every day he didn't seem to believe that they could keep up With that pace miabi knew that even with his equipment that improved strength and stamina there was no way he could power through that Liz bowed her head because of the shame she was feeling and admitted that she couldn't it was decided that they were going to leave The
Scouting to Liz on the seventh day they started moving their road was blocked by a big tree so darta asked for Miyabi's help miabi quickly removed the tree and they continued when it was time For lunch luara called miabi and stated that she was thinking of changing their meal plans they were going to be burning a lot more energy in colder climates at night Liz told Miyabi that he was amazing she said that everyone in Red Cliff was already relying on him he said that she was doing a great job with this scouting too Laura
was singing her Praises earlier the only reason she could detect the number and distance of enemies so accurately was because her Magical control was so precise as he was talking like that he didn't even realize Liz wasn't answering anymore Liz already knew miabi was competent his abilities shock and Amaze everyone he meets there were things only miabi could do and things that made him special and unique she couldn't think of something that only she could do to make her feel special the next chapter begins with Sid noticing Karen mumbling some words he had to interrupt
him as he looked like a Creep Karen explained to him that he was trying to train his inventory on the final day of the renovation job miabi wrote down a special training regimen for him so he was trying to catch up to him step by step Sid recalled that Miyabi's inventory space was pretty big and Karen confirmed him he wanted to go with him but Weiss told them that miabi left for the capital ages ago Karen hoped that wherever he was he was doing well meanwhile miabi was worried about Liz she tried to act fine
but miabi said she seemed tired since yesterday she said riding in the carriage was much easier on her body and she didn't have to walk all day now miabi also tried to act like it was fine but he already noticed that she was really bothered by dart's plan even though they understood why it was necessary for everyone's safety it still felt wrong before they left Liz spent all day in the library memorizing routes and monster data Obviously she took her responsibilities as leader seriously but the instant something happened it was as if darta took over
as leader and now Liz was depressed because of him suddenly Dart called Liz and miabi he showed them a beautiful statue and explained that it was a border marker they denoted the boundaries between Sovereign territories that also meant that Beyond this point were the reg PARTA mountains and right behind those mountains was the royal Capital suddenly Liz sensed something in alarmed everyone that a monster was above them at 4:00 three of them were about 50 m off Dart left them to Liz she used ice needle but miabi thought they dodged it however the needles turned
back to the monster and killed it Liz only killed their leader but if they were only trying to drive them off that should be enough when she returned to the carriage chiffon asked if that was The Elemental Magic Ice needle she used And Liz confirmed her she found it strange because ice needle was ordinary ice magic and all it could do was form ambient moisture into hardened needles of ice that fly in a straight line but she could swear she saw a needle pivoting trajectories in midair she asked what the that was and Liz explained
that it was one application of fine-tuned magic manipulation it was possible to change its Target from a distance she mentioned that it took her A lot of practice to get it right chiffon looked at Liz so eagerly that Liz had to offer to practice it later if she was interested which she was Dart liked that weather and what they needed was it to stay that way for 5 days at night while they were resting chiffon and Liz practiced the ice needles chiffon was having a hard time pivoting the needles because no matter what she tried
they kept running into the obstacles Liz comforted her by saying That it's always like that to start with she offered some cookies that miabi prepared chiffon heard so much from her father and she thought she prepared herself but it was easy for the absurdity of it all to slip her mind while they were traveling when it was raining miabi covered walkways and when they were studying he added blackboards and desks he always finds new ways to surprise chiffon she then wondered how Liz and miabi came to make Miyabi's Acquaintance Liz responded that they bumped into
each other when he got lost in some Woods near angelum and she showed him the way to the town but he was flat broke they ended up forming a party pretty naturally chiffon then asked if she didn't have a party prior to that Liz knew that it was odd for a rear guard Mage to fly solo Liz changed the subject and asked how much magic manipulation training she had done before and she said that it wasn't very Much whatever her preferences higher levels of magical learning have been prioritized in her studies Liz commented that she
was certainly blessed with a lot of magical power in the field of magic natural Talent was everything and Liz wasn't born with much at all three elements were necessary for the Mastery of Magic the methodology behind magical construction is called a theory the actual manipulation of magic to perform a task which they call skill and the raw Energy they use to power skills which they call magical power what was disproportionately crucial for Success was magical power unlike skills in written Theory which could be learned magical power was fixed at Birth it's not so much that
it didn't grow just as with muscle mass the more you use it the more you strengthen it Liz had tried every kind of training conceivable but she had been stagnating for the last year to use that little power she had Efficiently she trained more in fine-tuned control in looking for a way to use stronger skills with less magic she immersed herself in dense magical Theory but while she was doing that everyone born with Talent was steadily pulling away the Gap cannot be closed with effort alone thinking about these moments Liz started to doubt herself once
again and felt like she was nothing she knew complaining left and right wouldn't change a thing so she tried to Focus on the training for now she asked chiffon to show her hand for a moment she explained that magic was released from the palm of the hand she could use her magic to induce hers into the same state of being and she told her to remember the sensation for later while Liz was doing that chiffon remembered that her father used to teach her just like that meanwhile miabi prepared himself and knocked on dart's room Tyson
opened the door and informed him that Dart was sleeping he figured that this was about Liz so Tyson invited him over and brought some of his hego herbal tea while sipping their teas Tyson asked how Liz was miabi responded that it was pretty clear she was depressed all the time ever since she started riding in the carriage Tyler responded that he knew and it was hard to miss he said that Liz wears her heart on her sleeve and asked if the carriage issue was what he wanted to talk to Dart about because There wasn't really
anything else to do about this miabi stated that it was more the peripheral issues that had him concerned redcliffe elected Liz as Mission leader but she can't help but feel like that position has been rescinded he didn't disagree with red Cliff's overall plan but he wondered if it would be too bad to let her be the leader they asked her to be when he asked Tyson if Liz wasn't an experienced Adventurer just like them Tyson couldn't Help but tear up he said that he thought he prepared himself but that little girl had gotten so big
and he realized that she was all grown up now he apologized for getting distracted that said Tyson mentioned that if he brought it up with dart right now he was sure it would just make things worse and so Tyson asked him to leave talking to the rest of the Red Cliff to him and he entrusted Liz to him to make sure she wasn't alone miabi gladly took this responsibility as this Was all he wanted seeing his dedication Tyson once again started tearing up in the next scene it had been 2 days since their talk and
they were on their 10th day miabi knew Tyson hadn't forgotten and he was probably just waiting for the right moment suddenly Liz informed miabi that they were there as he was puzzled she told him to look up and he would figure it out they were in the Valley of the Dragons miabi was shocked and Amazed by them Liz explained that the dragons Around here were the gentle kind and they coexist with humans in peace they also noticed that it was the nesting season they tend to get Territorial and aggressive around nesting season but that was
just for the stretch of road through their breeding grounds the roads blocked off for the next few months Alicia asked what they were going to do now and dart said they were going to find a detour as their best bet the closest detour wraps around the mountain The other way and joins up with the highway on the other side it would add four or five days but it would get them where they were going while Alicia and dart argued about his plan Liz had a different idea apparently she planned to use Miyabi's skill and create
a shortcut after a while we see them inside a cave trying to move as quickly as they can suddenly they noce not that this was as far as they could go because there was a waterfall inside the cave and no way to Pass but miabi mentioned that he could backtrack and dig at a different angle while walking around miabi sensed something and looked up which was a big slime coming with him a second before it hit him Mel slashed the Slime and saved miabi they immediately put on their guards and tried to locate the enemy
Liz was in shock she couldn't believe they already scouted the area between the cracks and The Rock something was emerging and after a few minutes they Were in a slime nest after getting rid of the shock he had Miyabi started to think rationally and realized that it was worse than when they fought underground because they were penned in by water this time and even if they didn't have the water to worry about they had no idea what could be lying beneath its surface Mel was slicing off the slimes one by one she told them to
secure an exit route Liz looked around but there was no exit Mel then told her To make one then she was so talented that the others didn't even need to attack the slimes slime was a monster with a distinctive method of attack that dissolved flesh and Bone bone their movement speed was relatively slow and their weak point was the core at the center of their body if there were only one or two they posed no real threat but when there were this many in an enclosed space they were a real problem The Carriage was no
guarantee of safety when Slimes could slip through the gaps in the wood it was going to be difficult to defend it with so little room to maneuver Liz was indecisive about what to do she felt so guilty because she was the one who suggested they go through the mountains in the first place she was so distracted by her own guilt that she didn't notice the slime's attack and dart had to sacrifice his arm to save her Dart was calm because he was counting on Laura Laura told him to shut Up because she was trying to
concentrate she created a healing Circle and dart's wound in his arm immediately started to heal the acidb born was gone in a few seconds wide area of effect magic takes a lot of magical power so does the ging magic as a rule but for her to combine both so calmly Liz realized that magic of the Elven kind once again but she didn't want to sit idly by sure La could heal it if anything went wrong but that didn't change the fact that the injury Still happened because of her she decided to show how useful she
was before her ice needles could reach the slimes Dart used his power and suddenly the ground started Rising upwards Liz once again realized what it meant to be an A- Rank and felt useless for not being able to help with a single thing after dart's power went down miabi noticed that every single slime got vaporized he asked if it was his turn now but it wasn't over yet suddenly Laura asked Liz if she remembered how her father used to fight she held her hand and Liz started Ed to feel Laura's magical power Laura recalled the
memories with lizz's father when he said he had been thinking about which magical attribute would suit her best and he comes up with magical guidance it was something intuitive and easy to remember for her she told Liz that what makes magic strong is fine-tuned magical control paired with a strong knowledge Base she reminded her that slimes could squeeze in through any Gap no matter how small she asked how they escape if Brute Force doesn't clear the way even if Laura can't think of a better way she believed Liz could she asked what was left when
she eliminated what was impossible Liz had given it thought before if gaps were a problem the gaps must be sealed there was plenty of water and she believed she could make it work she even wondered why she didn't take The option seriously until now she then reminded herself that the principles were no different from when she taught lady chiffon when they practiced that night they manipulated the magical particles already present in the spell to alter the trajectory but in theory from the instant you begin the spell until the time of activation nothing is stopping you
from controlling everything in other words she could manipulate Laura's magic mid cast the difficulty Level was on a completely different scale but it's what must be done with all her efforts Laura and Liz created flash freeze which was revealed by Dart that this was her father's technique but Liz didn't hear that Miyabi couldn't believe what just happened every last slime Florida ceiling got frozen solid he then noticed something and asked Dart what it was Dart confirmed that it was light and his guess was that the river here flows through the outside so that Opening was
their ticket out of here Dart told him that their speed was going to tank hard if they had to Traverse ice and snow considering his dig speed it might honestly be faster just to dig a tunnel out miabi told everyone to take a look at what he was about to do he aligned the stencil with sheet metal and cut out the base shape adding a slight bevel to the edge smoothing out the bottom blade lathering rinsing repeating for mass production and then a fixing to The bottom of their shoes miabi made everyone ice skate shoes
but unfortunately he wasn't good at ice skating darted believed he could get up to speed but he didn't know what to do with the carriage miabi added slay Treads so it should be fine with that sorted they were ready to head out but suddenly they noticed that the Slim's gelatinous composition meant they weren't soluble in water they immediately started to run away after Getting out of the tunnel Liz bowed down and apologized to chiffon for everything she was the one who suggested they take a shortcut and because of that she ended up putting her in
danger chiffon made her even more upset when she said she could not accept her apology she said that their top priority at the moment was arriving at the capital as quickly as possible she weighed her priorities based on the information at hand and made what she thought was the best Choice no one planned on the road being closed and a detour of some kind was necessary either way that having been said it was her quick thinking and Swift action that got them through that roadblock she smiled at Liz and told her that everything turned out
just fine and there was no need for her to apologize Liz still tried to apologize but she stopped her because results were all that matter in the practical sense seeing her so upset set chiffon told her To not spend her life dwelling on every perceived mistake because perfectionism could be a bitter poison at that moment Liz realized that trying to be perfect was a problem Alicia was amazed by how generous she was after she left for her carriage Dart and Laura started teasing Liz as usual they were so impressed by how cool she was the
sight of her fighting back toback with Laura made them realize how much she had grown Dart then stated that the time had finally Come for him to say it he grabbed Liz and held her while he said that they missed their fourth member and and they wanted her to think about joining Red Cliff The Guild Master was deep in his investigation of miabi he had reached out to every branch of the guild within angelum but the results were always the same there were no records of anyone by the name of Miyabi in the Kingdom of
fora almost every professional Endeavor was governed by a guild and at the age Of 12 everyone began their apprenticeship most people registered with one of the three major guilds either the merchants adventurers or production guilds The Guild Master had thoroughly checked the registration records from all three but found nothing and if you weren't registered with a guild your options were few you'd either have to be born into wealth inherit a career from your family or come from outside the kingdom as he pondered the Duke's recent words he couldn't help but wonder if miabi might be
a spy meanwhile back on the road Liz was reflecting on the offer Dart had made to her her expression was troubled and it didn't go unnoticed by miabi when he asked why she had wandered off she said she just needed some time to think miabi concerned pointed out that she might not have chosen the the best spot for a break considering the tunnel they had built was just around the corner Liz Replied that slimes which preferred much more humid environments were unlikely to come out into the open on such a sunny day the conversation fell
into an awkward silence until miabi asked if something was bothering her Liz was surprised he could tell just from her face but miabi remarked that it was pretty obvious she hesitated unsure if he really wanted to hear about it but miabi assured her that he wasn't trying to force her to talk if she didn't want To he was about to leave when Liz grabbed his shirt and told told him it concerned him too so he needed to listen once they had settled Liz confessed that she had been invited to join the redcliff party miabi was
taken ab and immediately asked what she had said in response she explained that she told them she needed time to think about it redcliffe had first approached her when she had just become an adventurer but she had turned them down at the time she Was only 10 years old then and she felt like she would have been more of a hindrance to their rank evaluation than anything else more than that she had wanted to carve out her own path and find her independence even now she didn't feel like she was good enough for them but
on the other hand she realized that if she passed up this opportunity again she might miss her one shot at reaching A- rank she was truly torn about what to do to complicate things Further they had also extended the invitation to Miyabi although Miyabi was only a d rank Adventurer he had the skills to keep up with a rankers making the offer an excellent opportunity for both money and Prestige Liz then asked him outright what the right choice was miabi thought about it for a moment before responding that he didn't mind either way he could
create things wherever he was and the rankings and money didn't matter To him Liz somewhat flustered realized that she was the only one who seemed to care about those things but Miyabi quickly reassured her that he wasn't judging her for it he reminded her of what he had said before they left town that he just wanted her to enjoy adventuring comfortably as long as she was happy he would be too no matter the circumstances however he warned that no matter what choice she made she would likely have some regrets tough times Would make her question
whether a different path would have led to a better outcome still miabi felt his only real regret was lingering too long in the past what kept him moving forward was knowing that his future was the result of his own choices in the end whatever decision Liz made he would follow her without any regrets Liz chuckled teasing miabi that for a moment he sounded like her father then more seriously she thanked him and said she'd Continue to think it over later when they returned to their base miabi noticed Alicia cleaning the dishes he tried to stop
her but Alicia insisted that cleaning was part of her duties miabi wanted to ensure everything was packed up noting that if any leftover food was left exposed it could attract dangerous animals or Monsters as if on Q a group of unexpected visitors appeared startling everyone fortunately they didn't seem threatening an old man Stepped forward apologizing for the scare and introducing himself as Dominic the ring leader of a traveling performance troop called Brand's managerie Dominic explained that they had been drawn in by the delicious smell of food and had stumbled upon what they assumed was an
outdoor restaurant in the mountains he speculated that Miyabi and the others must be bodyguards for some wealthy Noble darta introduced himself which took Dominic by surprise as he was A fan of redcliffe and particularly appreciated their work during the monster Stampede overcome with excitement Dominic nearly fell but Dart caught him in time asking if he was all right Dominic still giddy assured him that it was just the emotions getting the better of him Dominic explained that his troop was traveling from T territory and had a performance scheduled in angelum however they had been delayed by
heavy rains which had damaged their Supplies their food had spoiled and they had gone 4 days without eating desperate they asked if the group could spare any provisions their destination was a village at the base of Dragon Valley where they hoped to resupply Dart informed them that Dragon Valley was currently closed to all travelers because of the breeding season for the local Wildlife he advised them to take a detour which would add four or five days to their Journey at best when Dart Returned to the table Liz offed e to escort the performers back along
the Route they had taken but Dart quickly refused he explained that even he didn't have the perceptive skills to monitor that many people at once and their current Mission took priority Laura asked how much food they had in storage after calculating what they'd need for their escort Mission they had about a week's worth of extra supplies but with over 20 people in The Troop it wouldn't Be enough miabi estimating based on an expanded storage skill suggested they give them everything although the food would spoil without the proper St storage he then remembered that they still
had some black orc jerky but it wouldn't be sufficient either darta asked miabi to unpack the large bags they had brought with them inside they found wheels of cheese and nuts which Dart offered to share with the performers chiffon who had been quiet Suddenly requested that Dart Patrol the area while the troop rested as the group ate Miyabi realized that Dart had packed extra supplies just in case Miyabi couldn't keep up with the rest of them this led miabi to reflect more positively on the idea of joining Red Cliff he recognized that for Liz is
joining The Guild was her dream and would put her on the fast track to a rank plus it would be a lot of fun to travel with her the performers deeply Grateful left after expressing their thanks repeatedly as they departed miabi thought to himself that he never wanted to see Liz look sad again that evening Tyson approached Dart asking if he had extended invitations to both Liz and miabi Tyson thought they had agreed to wait until the mission was completed Dart admitted that miabi had forced his hand a little though he noted that despite being
an awkward kid miabi was valuable even as a support class Laura Added that they needed Liz too pointing out that while she had signed up as the rear guard it got lonely back there miabi had proven himself to be impressive and From dart's perspective as a party leader with experience serving Noble houses there was no doubt that both miabi and Liz were perfect fits for redcliffe however after spending time with them Tyson had a change of heart he wasn't so sure anymore that joining redcliffe was what Was best for Liz Dart asked what was going
on Tyson responded that 8 years ago they took rise away from Liz so at the very least what they wanted for her was a life full of joy from there on out they would do anything to give her that they swore about this in the past he asked if they had been watching Liz closely which they did he said that all this time he thought joining redcliff was something Liz wanted but when it was just the three of them and Liz she Didn't smile they tried to object to this but when Tyson asked them if
they had seen her smile his whole trip they stopped and thought about it Dart thought about every moment with her and realized that he didn't notice what kind of expression she was making the thought of Liz not being happy made him very sad and he couldn't get any sleep just thinking about this the next day he tried to convince himself that Tyson just worried too much he then saw Liz Smiling at miabi and thought he had proven Tyson wrong but when Liz saw him her smile disappeared and she asked what he was doing this early
in the next scene Dart tries to focus on the mission they were still in excellent condition and only another 20 km to the next rest stop he then asked Miyabi what he was doing Miyabi made himself a coat since it was getting chilly he then asked to take a break soon when they did miabi brought flee lined cushions he noticed That chiffon was freezing since they got into the mountains he noticed that Mel was staring at him from The Carriage window and got startled Dart overheard his noise and looked back at them he saw Liz
bursting into laughter while she was with miabi Tyson also pointed out that she was smiling quite brightly Dart wanted to prove that he could warm people too and gave his scarf to Liz but this didn't seem to make her happy Liz scolded him for not giving it to Laura Because she was barely wearing anything Liz even even said that she would take it as a personal kindness if they could tone down the Antics Dart tried to convince himself that it was just a coincidence because he remembered her as a bright cheery girl when they continued
their way it started to snow they had to stop and Miyabi wanted them to give him a moment to set up but Dart told him that they could still make progress it looked like it would keep snowing Through the night and it was better to move now while they didn't have to dig their way out if they could keep going for 3 hours or so they would be on the far side of the cliff by the capital and it looked like the snow hadn't hit as badly down there for the sake of both their safety
and making timely progress he suggested moving but Liz stopped him she said that it would be best if they stopped here for the night trying to run in this cold would sap their strength Faster and footing and visibility were poor and it would be dark soon so they would have monsters content with too it was dangerous to continue Dart hated last minute changes to the plan so he told her that it would take them twice as long to cover the same distance if they waited he knew he should back off but he didn't Liz told
him that she took no issue with with his logic but they had got Miyabi on day 12 Liz reminded Dart that miabi could tunnel through Solid rocks so a snowbank would not be an issue with the snow removed they could proceed just fine on a flat Road they would still need him to clear the way out front so they can't keep up a running pace but they should still make it to the capital side before the end of the day Liz then asked if she made the right call this time Dart confirmed her and told
them that they could make progress and conserve their strength all at once with this decision he said that She made what was objectively the best decision and for the first time Liz laughed at Dart and she seemed genuinely happy Dart wondered if it was because he praised her or if it was because she wanted recognition when they stayed alone Dart wanted to talk to Tyson and Laura rise was the heart and soul of red Cliffe he was a lone wolf type Laura ran with a rough crowd and Tyson was a late bloomer rise was the
one who brought them together and then he was gone and Liz was all he left behind he thought he had been an idiot because all this time he wanted to see her smile and even while looking at her he somehow didn't realize it he wanted to sit down together with his friends and figure out how to love her the right way in the next scene Mel asks for her second plate of food proving she loved the black orc BBQ brisket sub Liz mentioned that it was because beastmen had more muscle mass to sustain she Burns
through Calories much faster so she needs to eat faster after they spoke miabi thought Tyson brought it up with the others he didn't know what he said but whatever it was Dart seemed to have mellowed out a bit after that day with the snow the road had been long and strenuous but at last the end was inside and they saw the Royal capital on the 14th day of their mission later that day Liz was upset because she didn't know what to do Miyabi was with her and asked if she Still hadn't decided about the thing
with the Red Cliff Liz said she was stressed about that too but the Duke was also about proving her usefulness so he says but ultimately miabi thought usefulness was subjective and it was up to him anyway overall he thought they all did pretty well Liz said she sent the whole trip without contributing anything useful and started glaring at miabi asking what his deal was miabi responded that he had been been here the Whole time and she had contributed plenty they only made it here on time because of her idea Liz responded that it was the
idea he would figure out 5 minutes later anyway he then mentioned her idea to dig through the mountains and save lots of time but she then said it got them attacked by the slimes miabi had enough of her and told her to accept the damn compliment already she said lady chiffon told her the same thing miabi couldn't believe she was Constantly negging herself into Oblivion and wondered if her thought process had always been like that come to think of it in hindsight he felt like there were a handful of red flags about her sentences about
herself suddenly Liz asked if it was wrong to have dreams lady chiffon said as much that if she only focused on her faults wanting to be perfect could be poison but it wasn't like that for Liz she just wanted to hold herself to a high standard and Started to question if that was a bad thing Miyabi's simple response was enough as an answer he said that if he had to nail down what concerned him the most it was how earnestly she approached everything he told her to hear him out without arguing about it he said
that she was way too hard on herself since she looks surprised he decided to try something he asked her to say something that she was good at she responded that she was good at studying but then said That just liking studying didn't mean she was good at it miabi stopped her and said she was doing the thing again he put on his glasses and started teaching her about self-esteem he told her to prepare herself for something else she nervously responded that she couldn't think of anything he told her to not be scared of anything because
love was an Irreplaceable power that could move mountains he then whispered to her that he knew a trustworthy guy and brought Her to that man to look at her hand the man told her that she was just beginning along the road to self-discovery but still he could tell she always carefully observed her surroundings and planned accordingly miabi then made her say with her whole chest that she loves to study after all that lesson Liz still thought this was very embarrassing the next day chiffon mentioned that she had a lot of fun last night Liz was
puzzled so she said that it was all quite audible from Their bedroom including the EOS but whatever the reason chiffon noticed that Liz looked much happier on day 15 they arrived in the Royal Capital 2 weeks have elapsed since they departed angelum and through it all they arrived safely and it was thanks to all their tireless efforts chiffon thanked everyone for their hard work on this escort Mission when she finished her speech Alicia informed her that her Chambers were ready if she would like to rest she then Noticed that chiffon wasn't moving meanwhile redcliffe stopped
Liz and dart wanted to hear her answer now he asked her once again if she would join their party Liz stated that she had been giving it a lot of thought these last few days and trying to figure out what she wanted and how she wanted to live her life she told Laura that she taught her how to fight like her father and she could never thank her enough for that she would never imagine that she could Do something like that when they cast that advanced spell together she admitted that she was pretty happy but
then the image stuck in her mind she was standing next to her taking her father's place and she didn't think she could stomach an image like that she knew she was being childish and stubborn but she wasn't her father's stand in she decided to find her path forward with her skill and her magic she was planning to make them proud of her her she then held Miyabi's hand and stated that they would not be joining Red Cliff miabi got panicked and told her that she was giving them more weird ideas like this Dart and the
others seemed fine with lizz's decision because they kind of figured before they said that they could handle submitting the report to the adventurer's guild and started walking away like it was nothing Dart also told them to not worry about exaggerating the details or anything because he was sure They would be comparing it to ladies chiffon report as for their ability to handle Noble's requests at the end of the day that decision lies with Duke beldini Liz asked if he was not going to try to argue her down but he didn't see any need for that
because miabi and Liz had a wonderful party Laura couldn't stop herself from mentioning that they were still in the market for a Vanguard member in case she changed her mind they said goodbye and started to walk away Liz got over her shock and with teary eyes she said goodbye too chiffon approached them when redcliffe left and told her that she alone had not made red Cliff's acquaintance before this so this was a change of pace she commented that being a parent seemed complicated and giggled she then asked if they were going to head back to
angelum right away and Liz responded that they would be in town a bit longer since it was a great chance to look around they didn't get Many opportunities to swing through the capital so they may as well make the most of it chiffon wanted to impose upon them for a little favor meanwhile The Guild Master informed Duke beldini that the effort to track down any trace of Adventure or Miyabi had ended in resounding failure he said that he pulled all possible government records and conducted interviews with his known associates before he arrived in this city
there was no evidence of his Existence at all beldini wanted to hear his thoughts on the matter the Guild Master stated that it was exceedingly rare for Crafters to register with the adventurers Guild and the vast majority went to the production Guild instead if he was simply filling a niche brought on by a lack of Support classes that wouldn't be an issue but his identity was a complete unknown and he participated in the renovation of the Lord's residence without authorization The evidence was circumstantial at best but when laid out like this in the worst case
scenario he may be a foreign spy as a response to his ious comment on the situation Duke beldini decided to laugh and make fun of him he said that his textbook answer lacked a valuable perspective he didn't factor in master Weiss if the objective were to sneak into a Duke's home to the sky using such a prominent figure as Master Weiss to do it made no sense because that man values Earnestness and hard work above all anyone approaching him with ulterior motives would be shown the door only those with a true passion for crafting meet
his standards when he first spoke of Miyabi to him he had only glowing words to to say and there was no hint of reservation in his tone for that matter if the aim was to collect information about a Duke's residence identifying oneself as a crafter was counterproductive yorgi was far from the Only high-ranking executive to think poorly of the crafting class and the bias was worse in aristocratic circles so long as a man means him no harm he wouldn't turn him away progress cannot be made without taking a few risks because it would be a
waste otherwise what he wanted to know most about miabi was where he obtained that power and he had little care for the rest The Guild Master was shocked that his request for information was purely to identify the Source of his abilities and nothing else mattered to him the Guild Master put her very best food forward but realized that Liz was just a means to an end for the Duke he then asked if he found the answers he was after bini responded that he didn't but that didn't matter because his next move had already been arranged
in the next scene shiffon tells Alicia to retrieve her journal from her luggage as she wants to write an entry in it Alicia said they had only just arrived After a long journey and suggested resting but since it was just a bit of writing it would be fine Alicia still reminded her to rest because her errands may be too much too soon and she didn't need to feel pressured into going if she was not up to it chiffon responded that not all of them could have the stamina of an adventurer she then asked if she
was worried Liz would be displeased Alicia responded that she was a professional and her personal feelings Did not come into it her only concern was for her health and well-being shiffon was aware of this and she knew she would be sure to rest properly and Alicia was welcome to join them tomorrow if she wished Alicia left the room as chiffon wanted to write in her journal now no matter how much she worried she couldn't defy a direct order because in the end a maid was a maid while she was walking down the hall she saw
her brother and assured her brother that she Was unharmed back to Liz and miabi Liz was telling him that they didn't get to say goodbye to Mel miabi responded that she snuck off while they were talking Liz wanted to apologize for how much trouble she caused her but didn't get the chance to do that miabi even stuck her with the night shift the same goes for him too he wanted to at least thank her for how much she helped him when Liz said she was hoping they could celebrate together miabi realized that the request Was
over but they didn't get a rap party he had an idea and was about to process it right away but Liz stopped him she was embarrassed that he was planning to call them back now after her crying moment he didn't plan to do that but of course Liz didn't let him he then asked if they could find Mel at least Liz had an idea and decided to make a simple lure to suffice miabi didn't believe there was any way that this would work but it was an instant success and with That Mel Liz and miabi
started drinking to celebrate their completed escort Mission seeing all the food on the table Mel needed to ask if all was fair game when miabi told her to grab what she liked she took their portions of food too miabi then whispered to her asking if she was sure it was wise to keep all that to herself because the feast had hardly begun while miabi was impressing Mel Liz could only wonder why he was making a face like an evil mastermind Monologuing while eating her food Mel noticed that the place was really cute miabi explained that
they wanted to pick a place she would like she wondered the reason for that and Liz responded that they put her through a lot and she had to put up with the thing between her and Red Cliff and they wanted to thank her for all her help she said that she understood that part and she didn't hate it Liz mentioned that she had liked cute stuff for as long as she had known her Mel claimed that she picked it because she also liked it too but Liz refused and said she grew out of that ages
ago miabi laughed at their cute discussion and said the two of them seemed to go backways Liz and Mel met outside Weiss's Smithy it took her by surp surprised to see a kid even smaller than her requesting a knife in the house Liz was told no freebies so she ended up selling that knife miabi figured that she must have been through a lot but Mel told him That he got the wrong idea being kicked out of her family was a usual thing for them he then asked if they could say they were childhood friends but
Liz explained that even after they both became adventurers they never really hung out and she ranked above her pretty quickly too Mel gets invited by Nobles and Aristocrats these days meanwhile they get assigned jobs procedurally Miyabi excitedly asked if swordsman on Mel's level could do that kind of thing But Mel was a unique case redcliffe got hired through the guild too even though they were famous suddenly he recalled what Laura told them about finding themselves a Vanguard and it hit them that Mel was a Vanguard they both reacted the same when they realized this and
asked if she was committed to any party now when she said no miabi held her hand and asked her if she would like to stick with them Mel looked at their eager faces and asked if they would feed Her if she joined when she confirmed that they would feed him and they would take requests together in the same Cottage as before she told them that she didn't hate them but where she slept where she played and where she fought she was going to decide that she wanted to live freely and would die freely those were
the terms she chose for her own existence and she was sure it wouldn't work for them miabi was surprised at first but he told her that He totally understood and he just got ahead of herself thinking how great it would be if she wanted to come with them this made her remember the memories of her old party members and smile at them after their lunch was over Liz and Miyabi left there to meet up with chiffon but then realized that Mel was following them when he said he thought she was going back home Mel responded
that she would go home when she felt like it chiffon was very surprised that Mel came along with them as well miabi didn't seem to be so sure about how comfortable shiffon would be but she didn't see any problem with it sightseeing was so much more fun with a lovely tour Group after settling that too chiffon revealed that for today's sightseeing outing she said the more the merrier Liz and miabi seemed shocked because they couldn't really figure out how a sightseeing trip qualified as errands chiffon mentioned that this this Was all thanks to Liz so
she wanted to show her gratitude Liz seemed puzzled so she reminded her how much she did for her sake during their travels besides she had always wanted to tour the city but never had the free time so it was like a win-win situation when she said it like that they couldn't argue the first place they visited was Liz and miabi the place was the holy parisella church while walking inside chiffon explained to them that this was the Place of worship of the mother of all gods in the 40a Kingdom she assumed that this was the
one place they simply must visit if they come to the Capital miabi was so shocked and Amazed by the church that he acted very weird around them so Liz had to warn him miabi then noticed people doing something so he asked Liz she responded that it was a class appraisal he didn't know what an appraisal meant so chiffon asked if he knew that classes could be subdivided Beyond combat and production groups which type he belongs to could be distinguished by skills such as inventory where applicable from that point forward the branches further split into more
detailed descriptions these were more difficult to identify this necessitates the use of a special magical ore and the natural magic in the stone reacts with each person to appraise their respective class so it was a litmus paper situation Liz Mentioned that she didn't really need all that class-based magic was passed down from parent to child the child of a swordsman would become a swordsman and the child of a wizard would become a wizard any deviation from that was incredibly rare once you're old enough to retain memories you gain skills naturally and once you get a
skill you automatically understand how to use it to be prepared Parents try to get appraisals done at an early age it ends Up being a question of whose lineage would dominate in addition to that it was also popular with tourists who just wanted a piece of paper with the church seal of authenticity on it as a souvenir Liz didn't know this information and wondered if she was some kind of uncultured country hick miabi wouldn't mind having a cool piece of paper too but Liz stopped him from wasting his money chiffon stopped their argument and offered
to pay for him as a little gift From her she recalled what her father told her and then asked miabi if he would really be okay with being the only one without a class appraisal before the class appraisal took place the church was illuminated by a brilliant light radiating from the infant undergoing the ceremony the senior priest remarked that the Crimson glow signified a promising swordsman and that the path ahead would undoubtedly lead to a bright and prosperous future a younger priest Commented that witnessing such immense power in a newborn was a rarity when Miyabi
noted that the child's parents seemed quite pleased the younger priest explained that possessing such potent magical abilities espe especially in the hands of someone destined for a combat class ensured a life of guaranteed success and fulfillment and after that it was time for Miyabi and lizz's class appraisal a class was a gift bestowed upon him by the 12 goddesses on high After praying that their Mark upon Liz as her guide they instructed her to place her hand on the stone while Liz was thinking about how she couldn't manage half the width of a literal infant
the priest told her that the mysterious purple shade was the mark of a magician but come to think of it Liz started to wonder how much magical power me ABI had she was about to learn the answer in a minute while miabi was putting his hand on the stone Liz Assumed that he should have a lot of Magic the light was so intense that everyone near the church was momentarily blinded as miabi and the others tried to make sense of what had just occurred the priest began to panic exclaiming that there had never been a
magical reading of this magnitude before they asked him about the class designation but the light was too overwhelming for anyone to see clearly determined to find out they decided to have Miyabi place his hand on The reading once more this time they were prepared and the priest managed to Glimpse the class to everyone's surprise miabi was assigned as a crafter something they saw as a disappointing waste of such powerful magical potential the younger priest sensing the group's disappointment tried to reassure them that no class was inherently bad after instructing them to collect their appraisal certificate
downstairs they gave their blessings and the group left Miabi was far from pleased with the result but what surprised him even more was that Liz seemed even more upset than he was when he tried to say something Liz responded by punching him chiffon attempting to lighten the mood asked Mel if she wanted an appraisal as well but Mel declined meanwhile Alicia's mind was Elsewhere fixated on the strange light they had witnessed earlier ever since the beginning of their Journey something had felt off about him and she began to Wonder if that unusual light was the
reason why chiffon had wanted to join them today as the group walked away the priest watching them from the church steps remarked that when the house of beldini had sent a messenger ahead of their arrival he had sense that something unusual was about to happen however even with his 50 years of experience conducting appraisals never had he encountered a magical presence of this magnitude not even in newborns from The royal family the younger priest still in awe of what they had just witnessed asked what the Elder thought would happen next the older priest usually filled
with wisdom and certainty found himself at a rare loss for words I don't know he admitted his voice carrying an unusual hesitation this is beyond anything I've ever seen meanwhile miabi was watching the sea while thinking about the appraisal desensitized as he was to weird stuff by Now that still came as a shock he enjoyed being able to make whatever he could imagine he puts a lot of Blood Sweat and Tears into grinding this game and he would like to think he got pretty good at it it was nice to have all his hard work
recognized while he was lost in his thoughts Liz came and commented about how beautiful the ocean was it was her first time seeing the ocean and she asked when he saw it for the first time miabi responded that he had seen it when He was a kid and then wondered if this was a rare Capital specific specific experience he decided that it was best to change the subject but was still uncomfortable about lying to Liz Liz said that 8 years ago a monster Stampede destroyed all this and yet people were so happy chiffon came too
and asked if she was expecting the city's scars to show the capital was a long way from angelum but they received reports of the extent of the damage so Liz was curious Chiffon explained that it would have been far worse without the magical shielding Court Mages the very essence of wisdom and power sered directly under the royal family they could use advanced magic to defend a wide area spreading throughout the capital city to the port and Beyond unfortunately the worst damage was suffered by all those just outside the outer wall Beyond The Great Bridge downtown
was originally trying to expand but after all this time even After rebuilding she had heard there had been no progress while she was saying that once you leave the main road the surrounding areas are all slums with poor security and they need to be careful if they go there miabi was asking Liz if the outer wall was where he built their campsite yesterday suddenly their conversation was interrupted by a woman yelling and scolding a woman for opening a shop she was telling the poor woman that this was The prestigious race Patra Marketplace and even servants
from the Nobles residences shop there and they only sell products fit for such nobility and her problem was to see the poor woman selling her products the woman defended herself by saying that she paid good money for this space the same as her miabi felt unsafe even in the capital Liz couldn't stop herself and ordered the man to unhand the poor woman the one who yelled asked her who she was Liz Told her that she would give her one more chance to let her go and explained that a rational discussion between adults does not need
to involve violence but the woman didn't even understand what she meant and thought she was threatening her miabi started to freak out but chiffon was calm and asked for Alicia right before the big guy hit Liz Alicia turned into a Wonder Woman and saved Liz also defeating a man who was a lot bigger than an average human chiffon Calmly explained that Alicia was actually her personal night as the mean woman was questioning what was going on she heard chiffon complimenting the woman's vegetabl when she turned and saw her Elegance Poise and genal voice she was
sure she was the daughter of a high-ranking nobleman wondering what she was doing in a place like this the woman started talking badly about the other woman's vegetable prices chiffon calmly Responded that in her humble opinion as opposed to this nearby display treating food like Decor she greatly preferred her display and she had quite the refined eye for these things the Guardians came eventually and took the woman in Liz thanked Alicia for saving her back there while she was saying that she had no idea how strong she was Alicia responded firmly that she didn't interfere
for her sake the poor woman thanked Liz for jumping in to defend her She then asked chiffon if she was sure about buying her Goods because for a Noble's table she admitted her wees didn't look the part chiffon responded that she had two reasons for her decision it was true that she had an interest in the proceedings but this carrot when compared to its mundane counterpart had a unique scent to it the woman was so happy that chiffon noticed it she explained that the village where she lived was about halfway up the Mountain range and
what grows there may not be the prettiest but they all have a special sweet taste miabi figured that they were snow carrots he said that he happened to noticed that carrots grow under thick no have more sugar so this might be the same thing they were confused because it had only been raining non-stop he responded that the mountains have been buried in snow since Autumn Chiffon wondered if it was possible to grow a similar crop in Angelum climate unfortunately Miyabi had no farming experience so he had no idea the woman heard them saying angelum and
responded that her daughter moved angelum to start her apprenticeship there it was a nice coincidence that they met them all there miabi was sure that she was doing fine in angelum after buying the carrots miabi asked chiffon if she was sure it wasn't a problem chiffon responded that she did appear to have overindulged and this may be a bit Much even for their chefs she suddenly had an idea and said she knew where to send these it was a place with lots of people who needed lots of vegetables and it was even on the way
home miabi and Liz were afraid that she was talking about the Royal Palace when they entered the Royal Palace a boy noticed them coming inside in the next scene chiffon is thinking about Alicia for all that she played the part of the pricky made well that warm Charming heart of hers Had always been easy to read for chiffon when she was writing in her diary she recalled what her father said to her he told her that Miyabi was far too skilled for a simple crafter he wanted her to confirm for him that crafter was truly
his class and not something more she did notice her father being much more cautious than usual she thought about writing something else too but decided to leave it at that for now most of what she knew she learned from her father but Some things couldn't be taught ultimately she was herself and no one else and her father and she were different people when she made a move on his behalf it was also because she wanted it when they entered the Royal Palace a soldier stopped them and explained that even though they were grateful to accept
her offering to produce one of his ladies standing to carry it to the kitchen herself posed a problem for them Liz said that he was Right but it would be difficult to foist it off on a regular servant because the quantity might be a bit much while they were talking the boy who was watching them came and he seemed so happy to see chiffon when he was about to jump on chiffon to hug she took a step aside and made him fall miabi and Liz were so confused because they were in the royal castle and
this dude was acting really chummy with a Duke's daughter shiffon eventually introduced the boy and his Name was cres Foria and he was chiffon fiance and the third Prince of the country fortia they were shocked and when they got over this shock they went inside Miyabi figured after working in the Duke's Mansion he would be used to fancy digs by now but he was still amazed by everything putting that aside he was interested in cres and chiffon relationship cres apologized to chiffon because if he had known she was coming she would have had Sweets from
her favorite Patisserie prepared seeing their lovey-dovey conversation Miyabi had no idea how he was supposed to react to whatever this was Liz interrupted their conversation and asked if they were sure it was okay for them to be here while sweating like a fountain cres apologized for neglecting his guest and asked chiffon if she could introduce them she introduced Liz miabi and Mel and explained that they escorted her safely Here from angelum cres found them incredible and they looked to be about chiffon age he then wondered what they discussed with the guard earlier miabi responded nervously
that they brought some carrots as gifts but when they all tried to head to the kitchens folks got mad at them shiffon found it a waste of Manpower when it weighed nothing inside Miyabi's inventory cres asked if Miyabi was some form of production worker but then remembered that he was an Adventurer so he assumed he must be a combat class miabi responded that he was a cra man so he was relegated to support roles Crest was surprised and revealed that he was a crafter too miabi was very surprised that the prince was a crafter chiffon
giggled and asked why it should come as a surprise that there were Crafters even among royalty they asked what she meant and she responded that she just figured it was too delicate a subject to get brought up like this but Chiffon and Crest were okay with that Liz asked if it came up when they were talking at the Cathedral she responded that magical Affinity was passed down in families so there shouldn't be any surprises between the classes of parents and their children miabi did remember her saying something like that too chiffon stated that what it
means to be a noble is that in times of national crisis one must stand at the helm to prevent the spilling of blood those were The words left behind by their first king and founder combat classes were overwhelmingly favored by those Noble houses that sought to uphold that philosophy be it a swordsman or a magician a class cannot be changed or altered so she can't fault them for being surprised miabi realized that if all that was true then how did the prince end up in a crafting class he wasn't sure he even wanted to think
about it he even started to think about The possibility of them being killed because they knew too much but Crest was not someone like that he said that he had made no special effort to hide it though he wasn't trumpeting it from the rooftops either while his hand was trembling he mentioned that miabi and Liz would know how it goes in the noble Society chiffon asked miabi if he still had that cushion he made for her back in the mountains Miyabi quickly took out the cushion and chiffon showed it to Cres cres was amazed by
the fabric quality and how it was so warm miabi bragged that he slapped some fire enchantments on that bad boy he was amazed by a crafter's abilities chiffon immediately asked if he would like to make things like this just like miabi cres responded that while it was certainly true his skills were amazing he had never used his own skills even once and he didn't think someone like him could hope to be like miabi but Chiffon stopped him and told him that she wanted him to promise her right now that he would stop being cruel to
himself seeing her serious face Crest apologized and promised miabi once again realized that the world wasn't kind towards those in the crafting class but that was actually getting it backward because crafting wasn't about value it was about having fun and anyone could do it if they tried miabi kindly suggested starting small and trying to make a gift For chiffon he only recently found this out himself but crafting was the most fun when making something for someone you knew well and that's why he suggested he try making something for his fiance he reminded him that he
said before that he wanted to make her happy Crest took a look at chiffon and decided to make a small lap blanket the last time they went on a picnic he noticed that her legs got cold now that they decided what to make two miabi wanted to Get started right away 1 hour later miabi witnessed crest's crafting skill level no matter how hard he tried the blanket kept falling apart cres was shocked by how high the quality of Miyabi's blanket was the blanket had the shine and feel of the finest of Royal Linens and he
didn't even want to get started on the intricacies of the embroidery miabi felt like he should apologize for something because of his reaction he thought it may be just a Matter of leveling up the base skill but even at level one it was weird to end up with a shapeless lump miabi didn't have enough data to pinpoint a root cause so he asked what handicrafts he was good with unfortunately Crest didn't even know what handicraft meant miabi started over and explained that there were three skills unique to the crafting class crafting skills handycrafts and cooking
skills he told him to keep in mind that raising his skill levels required a lot Of practice he started to try raising his handicraft skills today 1 hour later cres unpleasantly asked miabi if handicrafts were supposed to be this difficult his blanket had lots of Miss stitches he could pour Magic into the threads with no issue but he had no idea how he was supposed to visualize each Stitch and then add magic into the equation he felt like his brain was going to explode Miyabi tried to calm him down by saying that they could add
In the missing stitches by hand and it would be fine but he stopped when he saw Crest crying Cress said that he could never give trash like this to chiffon while he was crying chiffon came and held his hand and told him to be a little gentler with his precious blanket she said that she had never said she wanted things so high a quality they could be sold to royalty she didn't care care how many holes it had and what she wanted was the thought and care he put Into it what she wanted was the
very first thing he made by himself cres couldn't stop himself from sobbing because of her beautiful and comforting words at the end of the day Crest made a proper lap blanket for chiffon and gave it to chiffon when miabi was about to return to his room cres apologized for letting him see him at his worst but in the end he still had fun he then asked if they could meet up again tomorrow because he wanted to learn more about Crafting miabi was more than happy to help him and was delighted he was starting to get
into it Crest didn't want him to be so formal and requested him to call him by his name meanwhile Alicia was watching chiffon chat with the others a moment where chiffon could shed her societal burdens as the daughter of a Duke and spend her precious time with the people she loved Alicia liked it better like this she couldn't believe it when she heard they Would be granted access to the Royal place the prince was the bright Center of chiffon heart and she was glad she had a wonderful little break in the end she was glad
that they brought those adventurers along now that the day had come to a close they were unlikely to Ever Meet Again chiffon thanked everyone for coming along with her today and apologized for getting carried away and taking up more time than anticipated she asked where They should drop them off for the night and they said they were talking about finding a hotel at some point chiffon panicked at first but then had an idea she asked them to come with them if they had no prior arrangements but even Alicia was shocked hearing this offer while chiffon
was telling how it made sense to do that Liz questioned why she would go this far for a a couple of adventurers with that chiffon seriously asked them to come with her to the Royal Academy Alicia could only wonder what possessed her to do that in the next scene their report was delivered to the adventurer's guild when Elanor went outside she saw the Guild Master smoking he said that he just needed a change of pace she wondered if that was just the stress of a high-profile job for the nobility he had been acting strangely ever
since he asked her to look into Miyabi The Guild Master noticed elor's look on her face and asked what it was She said that she had the full mission report she told him that there was no mistake and said she would send it out to the Duke's estate but he stopped her and grabbed the report saying that he would handle it in person elanar responded that it was the first time she saw the chief delivering a simple report himself but he didn't say anything back ellar told him that if he was that bored he could
spare time for them to share a meal back at the Royal Academy chiffon Showed miabi and Liz where they would sleep since they were going to launder their traveling garments they gave them humble offerings for dinner everyone was nervous to be in the Royal Academy while chiffon was just happy she then asked Liz if they could go over magical fine control after dinner Alicia took a deep breath and started having a meltdown in her room because she was still having to Bow and Escape like they were honored guests she was okay with the B- Rank
and Miyabi but she was jealous of Liz the fact that she got the leadership role with no qualifications based solely on nepotism made her furious her anger level increased the more she thought about what Liz had been doing and concluded that she was unqualified to be an adventurer and she was also mad that she got to dismissed by chiffon on the other hand Mel knocked on Miyabi's door she said that they were all alone in their rooms miabi thought she got bored And went hunting for a playmate but she said no she took out her
Kitty gawa Taro and asked him to make his clothes because he was naked miabi was happy to help but wondered why she asked this all of a sudden she responded that she saw the dressed puppies in chiffon room miabi started drawing some samples and Mel chose the best one after that he created the clothes and put it on the plushie when he was getting ready to sleep Mel asked if he could make more Clothes he showed her the skill screen and explained that for clothes and plushies there weren't any good pre-made recipes craft skills might
look endlessly versatile but there were hard limits on what he could do without a recipe he can't AutoCraft anything and even if they had got the recipe if his crafting skill level wasn't high enough it fails while putting her to sleep he explained that when he crafts something by hand it automatically gets registered As a recipe so if it was the same thing he could make it as many times as he wanted Mel fell asleep quickly after his explanation but he continued to think about his skill he ported his recipe library and skill level over
from Dreamworld and hit the level cap ages ago but the real problem was that there just weren't enough of them the more he thought about it he started to notice that the barrier to entry for the crafting class was too unbalanced Because Crest was so unskilled in crafting he decided that it wasn't the right time for an emotional Journey Liz was exhausted it wasn't even their main house but there was still a huge Training hall so she saw the Upper Crust a lot has happened today she got her class of appraised she met a prince
and it all seemed so far removed from her everyday life and all of it was because chiffon asked them to stick around a bit she started to think about the prince But then decided to sleep because it was too late at night to think thoughts the next day miabi woke up refreshed and happy but Liz wasn't really in the same mood with him she panicked asked how he slept on the bed that was in his room he responded that it was a little bit firmer than he was used to but it was not bad Liz
said that this was weird beds in a Duke's Villa should all be specially custom made the futons alone prove it the good down content was Roughly 1.5 times what you could find in ins the smoothness of the cotton the thickness of the duvet you could practically see the craftsmanship and yet she still wondered why they both felt its Comfort was lacking miabi waited waited and waited and then he started scolding her for not having manners he said that when he got invited to someone's house he didn't complain about the mattress Liz blamed this on miabi
too they continued fighting while Mel was still asleep on the roof after their stupid argument it was time for them to leave miabi was leaving for the lesson he was going to give to Crest chiffon was glad they were able to stay the night but it was a shame they couldn't stay longer while Liz was thanking chiffon the Knight took miabi to crest's Mansion he informed him that he was going to be back to pick him up in the evening entering the Mansion cres welcomed him with two other guys behind Him miabi noticed that the
security was a bit tighter today he said that he managed to dodge his bodyguards yesterday but it seemed their leniency had expired he said that this morning there was something he wanted to show him he brought him to a room full of materials for their crafting lesson he said that he asked for the staff to procure some materials for today and asked for them to be left in his room so they could get to work right away Miyabi Was already shocked by those materials and he was even more shocked that they were in crest's room
Crest told him that chiffon was happy with what he gave her but in the end he still wanted to give the woman he loved something much more beautiful than that even miabi got embarrassed by his love for chiffon cres once again asked for his help to avenge himself after his begging ceremony ended they sat next to each other Prest mentioned that knitting with yarn was Giving him so much trouble so he thought it might be best to start with pre-made Fabrics if it was just sewing together two pieces of cloth surely even he could do
that miabi got emotional that he was studying up on his own but with all that said for now miabi wanted to try making the same thing as yesterday Crest started making the lap blanket even though it was full of holes it was still a better one because he couldn't unravel them Karen's Hammer was roughly the Right shake so he didn't pay much attention but that was specific to Karen he had made a hammer plenty of times so of course he could do it in the game basic crafted items could be made from scratch by hitting
a button but that was now how it works in this world you need to collect raw materials make basic items from scratch and complete quests to gain more recipes to make beautiful products if you don't understand the fundamentals of the recipe you can't Churn out much of anything in short that's why this man just can't get the hang of it no matter how he tries to explain it when Crest was out of yarn Miyabi assumed that his inventory capacity hadn't expanded yet and and started looking for more yarn while looking around he noticed a ghoulish
crime scene over there and started screaming cres shushed Miyabi and explained that he had managed to keep it hidden so far cres explained that he Tried using his crafting skill this morning and he remembered when miabi said he added fire enchantments to keep the cushion warm he thought it might be nice if the blanket could keep his lap warm but then that was how it turned out miabi said that Fabrics do tend to be rather flammable he told him that the material wasn't very compatible with the magical attribute he tried to give it fine-tuned magical
control could overcome that obstacle to an extent cres Interrupted his talking and mentioned that he had an idea for a workaround even with his lack of skill there might be a way to apply magic miabi carefully cleaned up cr's mess leaving everything looking as good as knew cres was genuinely Amazed by Miyabi's skill in repair marveling at the Precision and craftsmanship intrigued he began flipping through a book about the skill eager to learn more however Miyabi stopped him midre steering the Conversation back to what CR had mentioned earlier cres explained that he had devised a
method to imbue fire attribute magic into the cloth without requiring highlevel magic control Miyabi curious asked how that could possibly work cres went on to explain that when it came to enchanting materials the difficulty depended on the Spell's attribute and how well the material suited the enchantment since fabric is naturally flammable maintaining control Over Fire magic was extremely challenging however Crest had the idea of incorporating a flame retardant material like metal into to the fabric before applying the enchantment he envisioned hemming two pieces of fabric together forming something akin to a pouch before finishing the
final seam the metal would act like the wire inside an electric blanket allowing the enchantment to be applied safely and effectively Miyabi quickly realized that Crest had stumbled upon a brilliant solution he would like to resolve two issues a smooth and pleasant textured final result and a suitable outdoor use he was thinking of using rodent fur for the exterior fabric because it was smooth to the touch but still fluffy and durable and for the inside he was planning to use a sheet of chain mail with chain mail it would be evenly distributed even when placed
on your lap and while it is a bit heavy now he could Try making the links lighter finishing his explanation cres waited for Miyabi's opinion it may be heavier than the average electric blanket but the principles should be the same so Miyabi responded with enthusiasm cres was thrilled by Miyabi's response and he didn't want to wait any longer to start it he thought he must begin raw materials production which shocked miabi and he stopped him he panicked explained to Crest that there was an easier way Than this firstly they started with mid gauge metal wire
and then they wrapped it around a pole of standard width after making a lengthwise cut through the wire and separating the Rings they had a great many identical Rings now all they have to do is put them together miabi stopped him and explained that he could do it in that order but it would be harder the more complex an object was the harder it was to enchant chain mail was comprised of thousands of little Links at their current skill level trying to enchant all that may be Beyond him cres asked if there was an easier
way to do it but Miyabi wanted him to think and find out himself cres had a quick but intense brainstorm and figured that they could enchant the Rings first while chanting the Rings miabi noticed the calluses on his hand PR explained that he got them from sword practice as he was royalty he still had to practice his swordsmanship he said that he kept Finding himself thinking crafting was so much fun he said he was ashamed to admit it but before this he had never thought to make something himself miabi assumed it was because he was
a prince but Crest stated that there was another reason for that the crafting class had put the people he loved through a great deal he could work hard and improve his skills for them all but it felt as though he was just trying to compensate for how he was a failure that just made his Feelings more complicated when he saw how happy he made shaon his chest felt so heavy so warm he could feel the I want to create words burning themselves into his heart Miyabi set on fire and he thought he was talking about
his feelings but there was an actual fire right behind him they tried to put it down but the whole table burned cres asked if it caught fire from being in contact with a heat Source the Guardians heard their shoutings and entered the Room the whole room was on fire and had no oxygen so they had to leave meanwhile Liz was wondering if miabi would be okay by himself she ended up coming along mostly because she couldn't refuse an invitation from a noble and to be honest she was very nervous she assumed chiffon wanted to be
around a girl her age which would explain all the social norms she keeps ignoring miabi would know how to handle this so Liz started to stress about being thrown out while dozing off Chiffon stated that they could see the main gates they arrived at Maia AA the Royal Academy of magical Sciences walking inside Mel noticed that there were lots of students everywhere and they were all Nobles chiffon responded that the academic institution was founded by the nobility after all she apologized to Mel because this wasn't really in her interest but at least it seemed like
Liz was having the time of her life chiffon asked Alicia to handle The luggage and she left after glaring at Liz Liz had already figured out that Alicia hated her guts for some reason chiffon said her attitude was uncalled for she explained that Liz was her friend and she wanted to spend time with her and she seemed to take umbrage with that fact Liz had suspicions but she didn't think this whole thing was just because she wanted a friend chiffon thought she had gotten past this but some discipline was in order after that Chiffon showed
everything inside the magic Academy Liz was both amazed and overwhelmed by how incredible everything was even just walking down the hall she recognized people from their portraits and it was a parade of celebrities chiffon was also delighted that she was enjoying herself Liz didn't forget to mention that it was scary to walk around with this all exposed so she wished she had an inventory too chiffon realized that Liz loved the magical Sciences with Her whole heart this made her wonder what made her fall in love with magic Liz responded that she couldn't really say she
had ever thought about it before and asked if she really needed a reason to love something chiffon confessed that she hadn't thought of magic as a fun thing before when previously she said to her that ambition was position she was speaking from her own experiences as a child the political sciences sociology and Magic it was all to make her into a More perfect tool and that was a hollow goal so to see her pour her Blood Sweat and Tears into her studies and still say that she loved the path she chose chiffon had the highest
respect for her Liz realized that she misjudged chiffon and thanked her while blushing all this time what she wanted was for someone to see her for who she was and the first person to do that was chiffon to change the subject chiffon told her that she didn't come all this way just to get a Tour when she was about to ask what it was an explain expon happened right behind her and someone was being thrown chiffon calmly asked the man named prer CNE how he had been doing and CNE responded casually as if he weren't
