Chapter 186: Human Demon War 4 (1/2)

Sponsored Chapter!

“Takki-dono!”

“Takatsuki-sama!”

When I was training while looking at the sea, someone called me from behind.

There’s only one person who calls me like that.

I don’t even need to turn around to tell who the owners of those voices are.

It is Fuji-yan and Nina-san.

“Heya there, Fuji-yan, Nina-san. It has been a while.” (Makoto)

I waved my hand lightly and greeted them.

Fuji-yan runs to where I am with Nina-san by his side.

“Oh, you are on your own? Where’s Sasaki-dono, Lucy-dono, and Furi-dono?” (Fuji)

“…Ah, right. About that…” (Makoto)

I remember what happened in the morning.

◇◇

Lucy and Furiae-san learned that Sa-san and I were together last night.

It also got exposed that we kissed.

Lucy heard that and said: ‘then, it is okay for me to do the same, right?’, and showed a bewitching smile.

‘That’s…’, but before I could say anything

‘Can’t be helped. But don’t go all the way, okay?’, Sa-san was the one who replied.

Hm? What about my input?

“It is embarrassing to have others see it, so let’s go over there.” (Lucy)

Looks like there’s no need for me to say anything.

I was brought to the other side of the tent’s partition by Lucy, and was made to lie down on the futon.

Then Lucy straddled me.

“P-Please be gentle.” (Makoto)

“Nope. I have to teach the body of this bad man that secretly put a hand on Aya☆.” (Lucy)

The slightly sadistic smile of Lucy reminded me of her mother Rosalie-san. They really are mom and daughter.

While I was thinking this, my front buttons were undone in an instant.

While I was spaced out looking at Lucy from below, she took her coat off cheerfully.

“Are you going to undress too, Lucy?” (Makoto)

“It is hot after all.” (Lucy)

She would come out from bathing with only a towel, and she has a habit of undressing when sleeping, so I won’t get flustered with her just taking off one or two pieces of clothing though…

“It is kinda annoying that you are so calm here. Alright, take this off too.” (Lucy)

“Oi! There’s no need to take off the lower half!” (Makoto)

“Isn’t it okay? Not like you are losing anything.” (Lucy)

“Nooo!” (Makoto)

I obviously resist Lucy who is trying to take off my pants and underwear.

But Lucy is the stronger one, so resisting is pointless.

We were playing around for a while, and…

“Lu-chan, I hear the sound of rustling clothes…wait, aaaah!!” (Aya)

“Hey, Aya, don’t interrupt.” (Lucy)

“No! If you are going to go that far, I am joining!” (Aya)

“Eeh, but you were the one who tried to steal the march, Aya.” (Lucy)

“Uuuh, but but but! I am joining!” (Aya)

“Oi oi, you two…” (Makoto)

Even Sa-san barged in, so I was about to stop this since it is already getting out of hand.

“You people are being so noisy! What are you trying to begin when we are in the same tent?!” (Furiae)

Furiae-san had a bright red face as she kicked open the partition.

“Warrior-san, Mage-san, on your knees! Don’t you have any shame?! I will have to lecture you two!” (Furiae)

“Eeh, but…” (Lucy)

“Silence!” (Furiae)

“Fu-chan’s scary…” (Aya)

Lucy and Sa-san obediently went on their knees at the outburst of Furiae-san.

I am left there in my half naked state.

“Uhm…what about me, Princess?” (Makoto)

“You go train alone!” (Furiae)

“O-Okay.” (Makoto)

Being told this, I left the tent in low spirits.

◇◇

—That’s what happened.

“T-That must have been rough…” (Fuji)

Fuji-yan must have gotten the gist of the situation with his mind reading ability, and made a wry smile.

“Danna-sama, I will go greet everyone else.” (Nina)

“Yes, I leave it to you-desu zo, Nina-dono.” (Fuji)

Nina-san hopped her way to the direction where the tent is located.

She is light on her feet as always.

“By the way, Fuji-yan, why are you here?” (Makoto)

There’s a lot of demand for merchants in a war.

I can understand that this is the time to get profit, but this is a remote region far from the battlefield.

Isn’t there other places that would bring in more cash?

“You are saying quite the sad thing there. I ran all the way here in worry of my friends, you know? Also, I thought this would be of use to you, so please accept it.” (Fuji)

Saying this, he gave me a magic tool-looking extravagant wooden box.

“What’s this?” (Makoto)

“Open and see. I wanted to prepare more, but I could only ready 10.” (Fuji)

I go ‘let’s see’, and open the wooden box.

At that moment, I felt dense mana coming out from the wooden box.

There were 10 glass bottles inside the wooden box, and inside those bottles, there’s a dimly luminescent liquid.

As a mage, I could tell that this is on a whole other level from the magic items you see around.

I rarely see the real thing, but…

“Fuji-yan, could this be…” (Makoto)

“Fufufu, the best healing potion, Elixir-desu zo. This is a war after all. Gotta be at least this prepared.” (Fuji)

“10 Elixirs?! These are supposed to be more than 1,000,000 each though…” (Makoto)

“Sadly to say, the war has begun, so their price has jumped. They are now 1,200,000G. It was pretty hard to get, so please use them sparingly-desu zo.” (Fuji)

“…Y-Yeah, of course.” (Makoto)

Knowing that the contents of the wooden box are worth more than 10,000,000G, my hands are trembling.

I slowly closed the wooden box.

“Uhm, Fuji-yan, how much is it…?” (Makoto)

“You are a Hero, aren’t you, Takki-dono? I will put the cost of the tools into the tab of the Rozes royals…is what I want to say, but this is my farewell gift. I have no combat capabilities, so this is all I can do.” (Fuji)

“Thanks, Fuji-yan.” (Makoto)

“Don’t mind it don’t mind it.” (Fuji)

My friend smiling as if nothing was so manly.

“What will you be doing after?” (Makoto)

“After 1 night, I was thinking about going to where Sakurai-dono is and giving him some things too-desu zo.” (Fuji)

“That’s the main battlefield though. Will you be okay?” (Makoto)

“I heard there’s still a few days before the decisive battle.” (Fuji)

“Right. According to the Destiny Oracle, it should take a few days more before the attack of the Demon Lords.” (Makoto)

I am surprised Fuji-yan knows.

“Now then, let’s go eat together. Hope the mood of Princess has gotten better…” (Makoto)

“Hahaha, I have brought a whole lot of food from other countries, so let’s cheer her up with that.” (Fuji)

What a reliable friend!

We returned to the tent while having some light talk.

It had been a while since we ate together with Fuji-yan and Nina-san.
