55 Episode 55 "Before the Quest, I chose new equipment for my friends (Part 2)".txt (1/2)
...... Sorry to bother you, nana.
Aine came into the room after the knock and was dressed in a maid's uniform.
It's the usual ......, right?
No, just a little shorter skirt, right? But the maid outfit itself hasn't changed.
'Didn't Aine come to show you her equipment too?
Aine is the same as always. I just changed my underwear.
Apparently there was a special undergarment in the equipment that increased defense.
It was made by weaving thin metal threads into the fibers, and it would raise the defensive power without interfering with movement. It was the perfect armor for Aine.
Good.
There were some decent things in the mystery armor.
''And there's one more thing I want Nay-kun to check.
Yeah. Okay, but what?
That's it.
Saying that, Aine held out a small box.
Inside was only a single sheet of paper.
''Shobutashi.
The underwear is enchanted for experimentation.
The box appears to contain only instructions, but the underwear is probabilistically present in the box.
By using the magic of the 'master-servant contract', the master can check under the skirt to determine whether the underwear exists or not. The probability is undetermined'
”...... What is this?
It's a strange underwear. I wondered if you could see them.
There's nothing in the box but paper. Shake it out and there is no sound. There's nothing to touch.
This is all...
'I think it's a joke from the armor shop. Aine.
Yes, I knew it: ...... Sorry.
With that, Aine bowed and walked out of the room.
............ eh.
Nagi-sama, may I ask you to go to ......
Okay, Cecil.
Cecil came into the room at the end, wearing a long black robe (coat).
'Yeah. That's fine.
It's the most decent thing I've ever seen.
The long black robe covers Cecil's ankles. It's got some thickness to it. And it looks good on you. You look cute like a schoolboy forcing himself into a grown-up coat.
''This looks defensive and I think it would be perfect for Cecil.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. It's not this one.
What?
My armor is at the bottom of this page: ......
Then, with a crisp, Cecil dropped his coat on the floor.
Underneath it, Cecil was wearing white clothes.
It was like a stubby t-shirt.
Her shoulders were bare to her collarbone, and the length was short, revealing about half of her thighs.
This is called the robe of the little witch. I want to try it out on this quest.
The Little Witch's Clothing
Clothes specially designed for wizards.
It's designed to make it easier to take in magic from the atmosphere.'
To make it easier to take in magic?
Okay. Nagi-sama, would you please close the curtains of your room for a moment?
The curtains?
I did as I was told and closed the curtains.
The room became dim. The only light is the sunlight coming in through the hallway window. Cecil is dressed to carry the glow on his back.
Backlighting - the robe of the little witch could be seen through.
The shape of Cecil's body could be clearly seen.
Slightly rounded, around the chest. The thin waist, as if it might break if you touch it. The shape of the base of both legs. The shape of the base of her legs. I can tell I'm wearing underwear, but it's also so thin it doesn't help much. I can see every detail of my body line even though I'm wearing clothes.
I feel like I'm looking at something that I shouldn't be.
'This is, you know,'
Cecil is upset, too, and begins to explain while pinching himself.
It is said that the cloth is full of gaps in the fabric to make it easier for magic power to pass through.
As Nagi-sama knows, my weakness is my lack of magical power. However, these clothes make it easier for me to draw in magic from the atmosphere, so it should be a little easier for me to use my magic. I think it will be much more useful to Nagi-sama than ever before, but what do you think about ......?
Cecil moves closer to me, his cheeks still stained.
When I reach out to touch her, she says, ”Huh,” a voice.
Thin. The fabric of my clothes is thin.
It's almost the same as touching my skin directly.
Or rather, I can feel Cecil's body heat directly.
It's hot, it's throbbing, and it's breathing heavily.
...... Yeah, this is it.
Dismissed.
...... Why is that, Lady Nagy?
You have no protection.
I'm the rear guard of the party. Rita and Nagi will take out enemies that are approaching us, and we have a 'Flame Wall'. I rarely engage in close combat with enemies. If that's the case, I think you should focus more on the efficiency of your magic power rather than your defense.
What if Rita and I get passed over?
I can't use armor or shields to begin with, so that's the same. If you are cut by a sword, a little bit of defense won't help.
That's not good enough. You're risking instant death.
I belong to you, Nagi.
'Mmm,' said Cecil, puffing out his cheeks.
'It is only natural that I should serve Nagi-sama with all my might! And the only thing I have is magic and magic power. So it's only natural to equip them so that they can be used to their fullest potential!
Cecil looks up at me with a tearful face.
I can see a lot of things below my collarbone through the gaps in my ”little witch's robe”. I can smell Cecil's sweat from the excitement.
Cecil is probably serious. The same is true for Rita, but she never thought of defending herself from the start. It's a no-questions-asked parameter distribution of 100 attack and 0 defense. That would be fine in a game, but in this world we live in, there is no mercy, and you never know what will happen.
That's something that even Cecil should know, but you're putting too much emphasis on being useful to me.
I appreciate your loyalty, but I don't want you and your friends to lose them.
But Cecil's face is so serious.
Even if I told her it was dangerous, she wouldn't listen to me: .......
In that case...
I just don't want people to see Cecil like that.
Yeah.
Cecil tilted his head in the air.
Then he opened his bright red eyes.
Hold your mouth like you're looking at something incredible.
He looked up at my face, right beside me, and shook his silver hair.
'What, what, what? Nagi-sama! What did you just say?
Those clothes are too thin. When you let the sun shine through, you can see everything about Cecil. You'll be able to see the plump breasts, the soft stomach and the worryingly thin legs. Even the shape of the base of those legs is clearly visible. To be honest, it's not much different from the way they are in their underwear. That's why I won't allow you to go out in public wearing that.
'I'll put my coat on outside! The only time you'll be dressed like this is during an unmanned quest!
Still rejected.
'Moo! Mr. Nagi! For me, it's more important to improve my magical efficiency and be useful to Nagi-sama! And I have a lot of common sense too. The only people who will see this figure in this quest are demons and fish!
Not even demons.
No demons?
Not even a fish!
More fish?
I could go on and on. The only people who are allowed to see Cecil like that are me and the rest of the party. No other people or demons are allowed to see it. No human or demi-humans can possibly see you.
I repeat. In as serious a tone as possible.
Half the time, it's just an excuse to stop Cecil.
”Look, Cecil. Our goal is to 'do nothing and play to the heavens', right?
Yes. So I think it's very natural to dress like this.
'But you stand out. The way Cecil looks.
...... Isn't it?
Or rather, I think I'm the one who gets all the attention together.
