100 Episode 100 "Extra Edition 10" Cecil, Leggie, and Restraint "".txt (1/2)

Bili.

...... Oh, I've done it.

I hear the cloth rip and I pick at my clothes.

The hem of the slave clothes has been torn.

It looks like it got caught on a nail from the pillar.

What's wrong, Cecil?

'Yes. I got a little torn in my slave uniform. ......

Nagi-sama, who has been reading the material in the living room, stands up and comes over to me.

The hem of my slave dress is ripped wide open, revealing skin all the way down to my waist. ...... I am ashamed.

I'm sorry, Nagi. I'm sorry for your unseemliness.

There's no need for it to be unseemly.

Nagi-sama said with that slightly annoyed look I like.

I'm glad. Nagi-sama, I didn't know you could see your skin.

It's rather nice to see skin just barely visible.

I noticed!

So I don't mind at all.

It's embarrassing for me!

If Nagi-sama is pleased with you, you can keep it that way: .......

But it would be rude to Nagi if I didn't dress appropriately.

I'll borrow a needle and thread from Aine and make it up.

Come to think of it, Cecil usually wears a slave outfit, right?

''Yes. The 'apprentice wizard's robe' is reserved for quests.

Well, since it's your day off, let's go buy some more clothes.

No, I'm good. I'm ...... in this outfit.

It's a master's duty to consider the welfare of his slaves.

Nagi-sama sometimes uses words that I don't understand.

''Sukuuri Kōsei?'' What is it?

Since Nagi-sama is so particular about it, it must be an important ceremony in another world.

Next time you teach me, I'll ask Nagi for help. I'll have to do it for you.

Besides, you can't just have Cecil in a slave outfit when everyone else is wearing normal clothes.

Wow. I'm all right.

Slave clothes are not that tough of a fabric. Even now, it's frayed in many places.

...... But this is what I wore when I first met Nagi-sama.

Nagi-sama is nodding, ”Oh, by the way.

He seems to have remembered.

The slavers' shop when I was in King's Landing.

It was there that Nagi found me wearing these clothes.

After that, we went on a journey together, and I met Rita, and I started to be an adventurer in the town of Metekal - I was wearing these clothes, and I was next to Nagi. I spent the longest time with Nagi wearing this outfit.

This isn't just a slave outfit.

It's a kind of proof that Cecil-Falot has become Souma-Nagi-sama's.

That's why I'm so particular about it.

And Nagi-sama has been watching me in this form for the longest time. He will remember me the most. Then ...... if ...... if.

It's a possibility I don't want to consider.

Even if Nagi and I were to get separated, I think this outfit would make it easier to find you.

'What?　If I get separated, I'll use 'Slave Summoning (Samoningslave) LV 1', though.

Huh!

And so it was.

Nagi-sama has the skill to call our slaves to him.

In the first place, I can't really imagine a situation where Cecil and I get separated.

'Like quests. Or a difficult job, or .......

I'm not going to take a quest that will separate me from Cecil.

”Agh!

'With my low combat skills, I will need Cecil's magical support. Cecil's knowledge and advice also helps me. So I won't go to a place where we don't know each other's whereabouts. So there's no need to think about a situation where me and Cecil are separated.

In the first place, a change of clothes doesn't make it impossible for me to find Cecil. I'm always on the side and I see his silver hair and brown skin without even realizing it. Everything about Cecil is burned into my brain. Yes, debunked ......, Cecil. Huh?

...... pshaw.

It's hot.

It makes me feel warm.

Nagi said something, but I can't get it into my head.

The voice is going straight from my ears, down to my chest and my belly, and it's heating up everything in me.

Nagi's face, a little higher than mine.

It looks into my face with concern, and a gentle hand touches my forehead.

...... I'm going to be a bad boy.

I have to answer the master's words properly. I'm not going to be able to keep on pouting.

It may take you longer to find him than it did to find me in slavery suits.

I'll try to argue with you.

What, say, ten seconds?　No. Five seconds?　I don't want to spend too much time away from Nagi-sama.

Let's just hold off for ten seconds.

What if, in the meantime, Nagi has given me something important to say to me?

What's the big deal?

Ta, for example, 'Cecil is a very important slave to me': ......

Wah-wah-wah!

I... What am I saying?

My head is fizzing and my words are going out of control. Nagi would be amazed at me if I said this.

'What?　Of course Cecil is a very important slave to me, but?

”Huh-uh-uh!

Boom.

My heart leapt inside me.

No, you said you didn't want me to forget to say something important, so I thought I'd say it now while I still have time.

”Wait, wait, Nagi-sama... ...... now, no... ......

'I need Cecil to be there for me and I need him by my side. I need Cecil and everyone else to help me survive in this world, and although he's the master, I'm always worried that he's going to be a good employer, not a black one. But now that Cecil is there for me, I don't have to worry about what I'm going to do.

I will never lose sight of Cecil in that sense, because I can never lose sight of his beautiful brown skin and his long ears, which are my markers of survival in this world.

'It's too much!　Ten seconds are long gone!　Please don't do this anymore, Nagi-sama, aaaaaaaaah!

My heart is pounding and pounding.

My body is so hot that I feel like I'm going to melt.

It was different from the time when I had my body reconstructed, and my soul was being moved. It's comfortable, and it's painful. Nagi-sama has been attacking the weaknesses of the ...... ”demon race” too much. ......

What bothers me is that Nagi-sama probably means what he just said.

The master thinks that he is really being saved by us, his slaves.

The truth is that it was actually Nagi who saved me,” he said.

It's not fair, Master Nagi. She knows all my weaknesses and is attacking me. ......

I never lied to you.

I know. I know, that's why it's like this. Throbbing, fluffy...... ahhh. What are you going to do to make your slaves so thrilling, Nagi-sama? Are you planning to develop a new method of slave abuse?

That's beside the point.

Please don't do this!

That's why I'm going to go shopping now.

............ Got it.

When I thought about it, there was no way I could defeat Nagi.

From the first moment I met Nagi and walked hand in hand with her, I was determined to serve her with my body, mind, and soul alone.

As soon as Nagi said something kind to me, I knew that I had lost.

I'm not going to throw away the slave clothes I'm wearing now either. If you want to make it a memorable experience, do something else...

I have a plan!

Pow!

The girl with red hair jumped out of the black sword that was hanging on the wall.

The girl's red twin-tailed hair swings around and does a full rotation.

With a swoosh, she lands between me and Nagi.

I couldn't help but applaud.

This is Reggie the Magic Sword, Nagi's beloved sword.

She's a magical sword that has lived for over a hundred years, and she's Nagi's slave.

''The demon girl wants to cherish her memories of the Lord. The Lord wants to buy the demon girl new clothes. I have a way to make both wishes come true!

What's that?

It's easy. All you have to do is hold hands with the demoness and go shopping for clothes to make it more memorable. The clothes you buy in this way will be memorable, and the Lord will be impressed by them, won't he?

I see.

I see!

I cry out in my heart, ”I can't be so fearful!

I can't be so fearful.

And now my soul is trembling. The resonance with Nagi-sama is so great that it's scary. And yet, if we were to go out together holding hands, we would be too happy...

Am I going to die tomorrow?

'I'm not going to die. I'm just going to get some clothes!

Then Nagi took my hand in hers and shook it.

It was the same as the first time.

She touched my fingers like she touched a sore one.

Then we held each other's hands as if we were breathing together.

Will you join me, Leggy?　I wouldn't know what to wear on my own.

'Phew!　I don't have a choice!　Truly the Lord is relying on me!

Yeah. I am.

I'm counting on you. Mr. Leggy.

This is the truth.

Because Reggie, the demon sword, is with me, I'm able to watch Nagi and Rita-san fight in silence.

If not, I would be on the front lines, performing a series of ancient language magic until my magic power and body are broken.

...... Before you know it, you'll be handling me too well!

But Leggy-san's face is bright red.

Leggy-san is a bit naughty, but he's a reliable companion for us. I love you, too.

And especially the Lord. Don't stroke your head because it's fluffy. When did you become so good at looking for an opening?

It's Nagi.

”Don't let that stop you, demon girl...

So Nagi-sama, Reggie and I decided to go with her to look at some clothes.

By the way, I had a question I wanted to ask you.

As I walked hand in hand with Nagi, I said, ”It's midday now.

It's midday now.

We were walking along the sunny road to the clothing store.

Our hands were a little sweaty, but it felt good to hold hands with Nagi-sama.

I was getting embarrassed, so I decided to ask her something that had been bothering me for a while.

Nagi, aren't you saving the world before you know it?

...... What do you want to say, Mr. Cecil, all of a sudden?

Nagi-sama's eyes are rolled up.

''You know, I'm not a brave man or anything, I'm just a novice adventurer.

That's right. It is the Lord who has chosen to love his slaves rather than be king.

I understand. I love it.

I'm not talking about that.

I don't mind if it's like that.

I refused the mission from the king in the first place, and I didn't fight many demons, so why are we talking about saving the world? Cecil.

Nagi-sama looked at me as if he was speechless.

''Because you have released the Heavenly Dragon's Magic, haven't you?

I did?　Because if you don't, White will keep having nightmares. You don't want that kind of thing. For one thing, I'm the girl who called me 'Otosan'.

''But with the release of the 'Heavenly Dragon Demonic Power', your anger has melted away and the demon that had gone berserk has become more docile, right?　That means fewer people will be injured or die in battle, right?　If the berserkiness had gone on too long, we would have been fighting an army of demons.

...... I'm not sure that's enough to save the world.

It's the same with Iris-san. If the Sea Dragon Festival had failed, Kerkator's blessing would have been lost and the port city of Ilgafa would have gone crazy. As a result, the distribution of goods would have been stopped, and things might not have been able to go to this resort or magical experimental city. There's a possibility that there would have been starvation or even a conflict over food.

'No, if Ilgafa's distribution stops, the other port towns will just do their jobs, right?

Even the transition takes time.

Well, sure.

And that's what happened to White. If White-san had grown up like that, he might have hated humans and Demi-humans. If the Heavenly Dragon had fallen into darkness and turned into a demonic dragon that harmed people, I don't know what kind of disaster would have happened. Nagi-sama could have prevented that from happening beforehand!

I finished speaking at once.

Nagi-sama tilted his head slightly and seemed to be thinking about it.

That's true!

Mr. Leggy clapped his hands.

I didn't notice it either. The Lord prevented the disaster of the world before it happened!

Yes. That's Nagi!

You're a hero!　I didn't know a legendary hero was here!

I'm ready to take the territory!

Well, then. We'll go and negotiate with all the slaves. The king is a dangerous man, and we'll have to go and talk to a high ranking nobleman and tell him what's going on!

'It's a big world, and there may be noblemen who know what they're talking about!

Leggy-san and I hold hands and jump around involuntarily.

You know, both of you. That's not what saving the world is all about, is it?

Nagi looked at us and said as if she was troubled.

A hero who saves the world, carrying a legendary weapon, defeating demons, reaching the demon king's castle, overcoming many hardships and being loved by the princess, and then defeating the demon king and being applauded with 'Hurray, hero.　I was just doing what I wanted to do, wasn't I?

”But didn't you get the 'Heavenly Dragon (White's) Egg' by attacking the 'Valley of the Mist'?

It's a stopgap measure to find out what Rafilia is, right?

”Could you get 'Mr. White' on people's side at ......?

'That was a great job by Rita and Aine. The two of them became White's 'mom'.

You can find out more about Mr. Iris at .......

'I wanted to save you from being forced to work in black. I mean, we're friends.

Yes, but .......

Nagi-sama is always like that.

You do amazing things, but you don't stand up for yourself or brag about it.

When I see that, I get depressed at my own smallness, because I can't help but feel that I want to brag about Nagi-sama.

'Well, I think it's a good idea to find a nobleman who can understand each other.

Nagi-sama strokes my hair.

''There are nobles like Leticia, so maybe there is a higher ranking noble who will be on our side. If that happens, it will be easier.

Yes! No.

It would be wonderful if that happened.

A nobleman who would recognize Nagi-sama and support her accordingly.

If there was someone like that, we would be a whole lot closer to Nagi-sama's dream, right?

Speaking of which, I had a question for both of you ...... to ask all the slaves to be exact.

After walking for a while, Nagi-sama said.

'Yes.' 'What is it?'

Are you satisfied with your current work?

............ Huh?

”Business as usual? And you mean your job, right?

Complaints?

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying.

Also, the lack of benefits, vacation time, and investment in business equipment - in this case, ”equipment investment” - that sort of thing.

”'Recovery?' And that's what Nagi-sama is most particular about, isn't it ......?

I've heard it's about making slaves happy. ......

I am ...... going to be any happier?

But if I start thinking about Nagi any more, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop myself.

'I've only just become the master of this world, so I may not be able to create a proper work environment for you. So if you have any complaints, I want you to tell me. I don't want to be a black master. ...... is a good place to start.　Was it hard to understand?

No, that's not what I meant.

I thought my heart was going to stop.

Sometimes you use words that I don't know.

At times like that, I felt the distance between me and You and I felt lonely.

Why wasn't I born in the same world as you?

Why did you think I was unhappy with my situation?

'What?　Because I'm making them work.

'I'll work!　Let me work!

You let them fight, didn't you?

'Of course!　We're adventurers!
