Chapter 301 – Black Flame Dragon’s Companion (3)

I couldn’t open my mouth when I saw the guy who proudly said that he attacked people only by smell.

What to do with this guy It’s because I didn’t receive home education, but I’m not a person, but I’m closer to an animal. Talking beast! Yeah, if you look closely, it looks like a dog.

Right. Something comes to mind. That’s the equivalent of several hell dogs! Devil Dog Beagle! The color doesn’t match, but first of all, it’s like a beagle in that it sticks its nose anywhere and sticks it in.

Of course, I can’t recruit this guy to the party… But I still care about it. You said you smelled weird from the pig, and smelled weird from me too?

Wait, what?!

“Hey, just in case, I’m asking. How do I smell? Are you stuffy? It’s not like it smells rotten like that pig, does it?”

“No, not like that. It smells very foreign. A smell I have never smelled in my life.”

The blonde immediately declared. Phew, I’m glad it doesn’t smell bad.

Looking at the nuances of the blonde’s face her as she frowned, it was like someone smelling the scent of mint sprinkled on food for the first time. Well, the first time you see something like that, it can be very confusing. Is this food or toothpaste?

“It’s different, but when you smell it, it smells delicious… And once you get used to it, you feel like you can enjoy it…”

“… !”

Holy shit! Aren’t you really going to be eaten by this beast? Look at that sniff!

“Stop, stop!”

I shoved the blonde hair back into my face and rolled my hair.

It was a bit strange what this blonde was doing, but wouldn’t it be worth taking her around and testing it? Is it just a coincidence that this guy covers people with his smell his?

If this guy can act as a gag on something extraneous, and if my jugiradar works on it. Then this guy might be useful.

If it’s useless, you should kick it out right away. After organizing my thoughts, I looked at the blonde.

“Okay. I’ll ask straight forward. Would you like to join our party?”

The blonde nodded her head.

“Okay, I get it. So, for a short time… “

“Oh oh. If so, will I become your partner too!”

“…”

What ten.

“No, it’s just a party? And as I said before, I already have two relationships? Don’t you remember?”

“What does that matter?”

“…What?”

The blonde seemed to be saying something very obvious.

“Isn’t it natural that the one with the ability gets a lot of spouses?”

Hmmm…It’s such a shocking story that I can’t keep my mouth shut.

Is this the normal way of thinking in this world? Is it because our children just skip over the octopus feet because this is a common way of thinking in another world?

No, I don’t think that’s ever the case! If I run into my kids, there will be an uproar. The two of you are going to eat me!

I opened my mouth feeling the rushing headache.

“Isn’t that what it is? You’re just confused because you smelled a strange smell for the first time. Are you okay. If you’re confused, you can. Originally, when people panic, they don’t even know what they’re thinking…”

“No.”

The blonde stopped me and looked at me with a very serious expression.

“I felt something after being hit by your cunning tongue before. The identity of my feelings is that I have to decide myself. Just because someone says something plausible, you shouldn’t fall for it.”

“…”

“Only I can define myself. You, too, don’t say anything to deceive me anymore.”

It makes sense, but the way you apply it is so stupid!

I covered my head. I want to see my kids…

-Fun.

The glass arrow pierced the metal shield. Seeing that, Ariel nodded her head.

The two were training for the next dungeon. Joint quests with other parties. It wasn’t a big problem in itself, but having to avoid other people’s eyes to receive buffs was a very troublesome task. It was also dangerous.

Therefore, if possible, it was necessary to play Eugene’s solo party, and preparations for him had to be made in advance.

Ariel looked at the arrow that penetrated the shield and nodded again in satisfaction.

“Excellent. Now I don’t need to teach Sharpness anymore.”

Yuri lightly bowed her head.

“Thank you. I learned a lot thanks to you.”

“Not really.”

Aura, swordsmanship, sharpness. The names were different, but the essence was one. A skill that overlays mana energy on blades. It is an ability that only knights who have learned skills from the knights can use. Or to gain enough experience as an adventurer.

“But you don’t need that kind of experience.”

“Because there is a buff.”

“Yes.”

Mana itself is abundantly scattered in the mountains. But accepting and using them is another matter.

You have to draw water from the riverside, but if all you have in your hand is a cup, all that water from the river is useless. Since all I have in my hand is a cup of water, the water runs out before I even try to do anything with it. And the number of times you can draw water is only a few times a day.

However, the buffed Yuri has a kind of water tank. Even one night was enough to fill the water tank.

Since the absolute amount of mana is high, you can increase the number of attempts, and as the number of attempts increases, the number of successes naturally increases. As her success rate goes up, she naturally learns how to succeed. The odds of success itself increase.

Yuri, who put down her bow her, stretched.

“It feels really great. Now it feels like I can even hit flying arrows.”

“Is it really?”

It was just a passing phrase, but Ariel’s eyes her were shining. Yuri, a little taken aback, scratched her head.

“No, you’ll know when you try. But why?”

“Suddenly, inspiration came to me.”

Ariel explained a concept. A bomb is attached to an arrow, and the bomb is detonated by shooting it in the air. The concept of an air explosion.

Yuri frowned.

“I think I know what you mean, but it’s harder than I thought. If the bomb is not properly fixed, the flying trajectory is unstable, and the balance is not well…”

“But didn’t you get it right then?”

When he is attacked by an ostrich in a dungeon. Yuri had once attached a bomb to an arrow and fired it into the middle of a group.

Yuri shook his head.

“It was just a bit of luck. How can you say no there?”

“I see… Then how about this?”

Ariel explained another concept, and Yuri frowned.

“If you do this, you can scatter mana over a wide area… And name it Scattering.”

“It is too difficult. Make a container of mana, and put mana back into it? I don’t know what you mean. How come there are two types of mana?”

Hearing Yuri’s complaint, Ariel crossed her arms. Trying to figure out how to explain this. Ariel, who had been fiddling with his chin for a moment, opened his mouth.

“Hmm. What do you think Mana is?”

“Well?”

Yuri asked back as if he had no idea, but Ariel explained without hesitation.

“Fire, water, metal, and other elements… It is a very unique element and power that is not equal to anything else. Fire emits heat and devours the surroundings, and water flows down and permeates everything. But mana is everywhere, but bears no character.”

Ariel seemed lost in self-talk.

“Why? Why? Why does this exist? Every element has a source, and power requires a price. However, there is no limit to the use of mana. Divine power with the most similar characteristics has restrictions that only the priests of the Goddess can manifest, but Mana does not. Why?”

“…Well?”

Yuri’s blank question brought Ariel back to her senses of her.

“The story leaked a little bit. Anyway, mana means that it can become anything as long as the user’s will and image are clear. It’s a crude metaphor, but you can think of it like clay. Let’s try it.”

“Grunt… “

Yuri stared at the arrow as if it would break, then sat down.

“I really don’t know. How the hell do mages spend mana? It would be difficult for me to just cover it up.”

“It is an imitation of nature.”

Giving up after less than 5 minutes. Said Ariel, trying to be patient.

“Understanding the way flint sparks, the way water permeates, and the way metals clump together allows you to use mana more efficiently and accurately. That is why magic and alchemy are inextricably linked.”

“You want me to do something like that? I can’t do it because my head is bad.”

Ariel shut her mouth. That her hair is bad. People with bad brains can’t be quick to notice. That’s just a face that doesn’t want to study.

“…Of course I cannot ask for that kind of understanding from you. It’s not something you can learn in a day or two, and it’s not really necessary. There is a faster way.”

“Okay, if there is such a thing, please don’t talk like that and teach me quickly.”

Yuri, who was sitting roughly on the ground, said with a chuckle. Ariel opened his mouth thinking that it was very sarcastic.

“Then I can’t help it. Take it off.”

“…What?”

The tired face her hardened in an instant. Ariel urged her glass, feeling the pleasure typical of a troublemaker.

“Didn’t I tell you before? It is faster to experience mana management directly with the body. Hasn’t it already been done once?”

To learn mana management, the two took off their clothes and put their bodies together. There was no sexual intent at all, but it was disgusting to be criticized. However, it was Yuri who asked for a faster method. There was no way out in sight.

Yuri desperately rolled her eyes.

“Oh, no wait, but this is a bit. Out here?!”

“There is a lot to cover. You don’t have eyes to see anyway.”

“Why can’t there be no eyes to see! There is a maid!”

“…”

“You just got tongued out!”

“I must have heard it wrong. Then go to your room.”

Ariel was persistent, and Yuri, who had nothing more to say, reluctantly followed Ariel.

…

…

…

“Wait, why is the way you touch so insidious! I don’t know if this is mana management or what!”

“Can it be? It is an illusion. I am more serious than ever.”

“Where is the person who says he is serious with his mouth his! Are you taking revenge on me for interfering yesterday?!”

“It sounds great. Be quite.”

Ariel said with a twinkle in her eyes.
