Chapter 319
"It's fine—"
Returning to Xueqinzi's Inn and back to his own room, Uranos withdrew his voice.
Three people were lying under the Kotatsu, and one animal.
... He was sleeping very comfortably. Uranos groaned in his heart.
I know Meleoron and Seam. I didn't undergo my usual Training, but today's fatigue must be a big deal. But even Aisha, who shouldn't have been this tired, was asleep under the Kotatsu. The Mana of the Kotatsu must be terrifying. If only there were cherry blossoms.
I can't just let it go like this, so I tried to wake Uranos up, but...
Aisha was lying on her side, sleeping with her right hand on the pillow. Her left hand was gently stroking the body of Sakura, who was sleeping facing her.
Very... very difficult to wake up.
But I can't do that. The innocent sleeping face, the faint breathing, the exposed yukata and left shoulder, and so on. Even though the desire to leave an image on my Mobile Phone was weighed.
Quietly kneeling beside you,
"Aisha..."
I whispered while feeling afraid.
"... Mm..."
A cute voice came out.... I fell asleep immediately.
"Aisha...
I'm home..."
This time there was no response. I didn't know whether I should shake him, but I couldn't touch the exposed shoulder or other nearby areas. Uranos had a plan.
Just to return it, I stroked Aisha's head. It felt comfortable... As I enjoyed the feeling of the black hair,
"... Mm.
…………Haa……
……Ah, Uranos. Ofilina..."
"Yunya...?"
"I'm home."
Uranos carelessly withdrew his hand. Sakura and Aisha woke up together.
"Afaf...
Sorry... You were so comfortable, I fell asleep..."
Aisha gently raised her upper body and yawned. While adjusting her open yukata, she stroked the head of Sakura, who had also raised her neck,
"... Think about it, haven't you stroked my head?"
"Now?"
The other two who had been lying down also woke up, looking half-asleep, probably because they had heard the conversation.
"Uranos, welcome back..."
"The Kotatsu is great. I'm really sleepy.
"I'm home.
Tsukanu, can you still sleep when the cherry blossoms are blooming?"
Seam rubbed his eyes,
"Because Sakura crawled into the Kotatsu on the way and curled up...
Before that, I had been playing with Aisha and hugging her."
"I'm sorry I fell asleep while Uranos was moving, but I can't be held responsible for Sakura's actions."
"Ah, that... that. I can't take responsibility either.
It's fine, I returned before Sakura's time was up. I have no complaints about that."
Aisha picked up the fluffy Sakura and placed her on Uranos's head.
"Meow."
"... You know."
"I fell asleep, please extend the time."
"This kind of treatment for me, who finished the work...
I slept so comfortably with Sakura, what are you dissatisfied with..."
Uranos muttered, not taking Sakura off. Sakura curled up on top of his head and fell asleep again.
"So what about the luggage deposit?"
"I ran it like nothing was wrong, but I'm really tired, so I won't charge that much, okay?
Well, let me save this story for now.
... Shall we make some tea?
I ran out of oranges, I'll buy some more. I need nutrition..."
"Ah, can I ask for something else?
Like an Onsen Egg."
"Ah, right, right...
Is your order finished here?"
After being asked about various things, Uranos complained while leaving the room with a cherry tree on his head.
"Even so, the negotiations went smoothly.
You said you finished a job, so it went well, didn't it?"
Meleoron asked while eating a whipped cream melon pudding. Uranos was wearing a plain dress, neither a yukata nor winter clothes, but he looked a bit displeased.
"This isn't going smoothly.
Because I really hate Motarike. Bell would rather accept it."
"Then this isn't an easy victory.
That guy is completely covered by Siri, right?"
While listening to the two's story, I enjoyed an Onsen Egg to my heart's content. It's really delicious. Can I make this flavor myself? This Oishi soy sauce is exquisite.... By the way, Uranus is currently lying on Sakura's buttocks, but I won't say anything, because it will stop the Recharge.
"I completely agree with your opinion on the buttocks, but...
If you earn 100,000 a month, then Bell will hate it. Motarike says it's fine."
"I know, but you two are a troublesome couple.
You want to keep it, but you don't want to receive the money?"
"Just like before, Bell doesn't want to take money from me.
It's hard to ask, because I will always accept it."
Well, I suppose so.... I also don't want to ask Lina for various things. Even if it's just because I rely on certain things.
After Uranus and I ate the same matcha pudding,
"So, I managed to persuade the two of them.
I let Motarike take the 100,000 and borrow half of the studio or storage room.
Besides, I was also able to accommodate some free pockets on Bell. Motarike works outside, so I'm worried about contact with other players, but Bell hangs out at home.
Motarike was unwilling until the end. If you want to pay 100,000, you should rent another place."
"That house is rented for 100,000, isn't it?
The amount is the same."
"Yeah, but even if we rent a warehouse, won't the luggage be left unattended?
It's like asking me to steal it."
Because no one answered the phone. This isn't strange.
"If you don't want to take the money, just be a model, what a hassle..."
"Ahahaha.
Wouldn't it be great if you could take it separately? Then it would fit perfectly."
"No way!
... Aisha, this isn't a thing, is it? He still hasn't given up."
"e"
"If I can't do it, then Aisha can too, I refused.
Even Aisha doesn't want to be a model for a painting."
"Hmm, hmm..."
"I wish I could draw the two of you."
"Shen, don't you downplay it...
This isn't a good thing."
"Damn it. You two are beautiful, but that's it."
Meleoron said something.... Even if you say so. Uranus, your face is blushing.
"Ah, anyway.
After leaving Snowflay, we decided to store our luggage at Motarike's place.
I said if it's not for a month, but for a short time, like moving to another inn, we could come over and store our luggage without hesitation.
I don't want my cards to be stolen by spell attacks, so I gave Bell the "Paladin Necklace" that uses "Corruption" to convert "Killing Bullet". In addition, I also gave each of them an "Accompaniment" for emergency evacuation. I told him to fly to me when in danger.
So, the cards I stored are 5 "Silver Salmon" and 1 "Fishing Gear Set", a total of 6 cards.
I wonder if I should keep a certain amount of spells, like 【Companion】, but I don't have many, so I decided not to.
... That's how it is."
"The situation isn't as good as I thought.
... Come to think of it, I think I've already promised to go somewhere with those two."
"The day after tomorrow, Sunday.
I didn't promise to go, but I decided to go to Dorias. It's hard to say no before I ask you to keep it."
Nothing? Only Dorias?
"Didn't you say you were going somewhere else?"
Uranus moved away from me,
"Ah, um...
Gursel... not on Sunday. I decided not to go."
"Why again?"
I want to go, but the city of gourmet. I want to go!
"I'm going to Gursel too, but...
The two of them are against it. Don't go."
"... I know you two don't want to go, but is Uranus against going? What's the reason?"
When I asked, Uranus was groaning under the Kotatsu,
"... It seems I'm tired, so I'm against a forced march.
I was told to play with Dorias all day on Sunday..."
……
I sighed.
"Please lend me Sakura."
"……Mm."
"Meow?"
Received Sakura from Uranus and held it. Puni-puni.
"As I said at the Hot Spring, if you are tired, please take a rest.
You are busy with actions every day; do you intend to continue moving at the same pace?"
"……
Because I don't know how long I can move freely.
And within the month that Aisha can use her Mobile Magic—"
"So you can't take a day off?"
"……"
"Year."
Oh my…
When scratching Sakura's chin, it makes a "nyafuu" sound.
"In that case, I will have to oppose going to the Snow Mountain tomorrow."
"No.
Wait a moment. Let's go to the Snow Mountain.
You see, my body has already gotten used to today's cold.
I am going to Dorias the day after tomorrow, so if I go back and forth between places with large temperature differences……"
"Fine, I might throw a tantrum……
Then, if you feel intense fatigue in the winter mountains, will you promise to quit?"
"……Yes."
I sighed in response. "Fuuga?"
"I understand.
Let's go to the Snow Mountain tomorrow as planned.
And the day after tomorrow, I will go to Dorias to rest. Of course, Motarike and Bell are also Together with us.
Are you both okay with that?"
"If Uranus is tired, I won't object."
"Okay.
……By the way, what kind of city is Dorias?"
"Gambling city, gambling city.
Well, if you lean forward, you won't be able to rest. There is also an Arena."
"You should rest."
"Yes……
It looks like it will be stressful."
Even so, if fatigue accumulates by relieving stress, that would be troublesome. ……If my Qi is exhausted, even I won't be able to fight.
"Now.
If it's too late, I'll be sleepy, so let's start now."
The Sakura entrusted to Seam disappeared while being loved, so I cut it off. Uranus giggled.
"Ah……"
"Shall we go to the next room?
Please lie on the futon. Shim, I will teach you how to massage."
"Yes."
"Oh oh oh, it's a ground technique. This is something worth watching."
"Wait!"
"I won't wait. I have already bought the time."
"No, this is a serious story, a serious story.
I have a question about the two 'Copies' I have on hand."
Tch…… You left behind a meaningful story? Can't be helped……
"Please keep it brief."
"Yes...
Well, it's about 'Copy' or 'Forgery'.
I am currently designating the 'Forgery' in the Specified Pocket and the original 'Copy' forgery card.
There are 36 in total."
"That is a fairly large number. So what?"
"Since I have already converted the cards from 1 to 36, the last one is '36: Recycle Room'.
Next is '37: Egg of a Top-Class Athlete', right?"
"Hmm……"
"Already got the card? This is the one I kept."
"... Just to confirm, we have already obtained the Specified Pocket Cards within number 36."
"No."
"That is why I was able to make a Forgery without hesitation, but from now on, I will make mistakes—"
"Does this mean I might confuse the Forgery with a valid card?"
"That is correct."
"That is why I wanted to ask you what to do."
I see. Indeed, I am also very worried, but I don't know what happened...
Meleoron tilted his head.
"I don't think you will be able to manage it."
"I am writing a letter to Mom."
"That is what I am going to do, but when I suddenly panic, I feel like I will make mistakes."
"I can't always take notes, and when I miss them, who will point them out?"
Ah... I'm not sure.
No one has even checked the accuracy of what Uranos wrote. I don't trust you...
"If you don't have confidence, I think there is no choice but to adopt a method that can be managed without any problems."
"I think so too."
"Hmm. In that case..."
"I think I will make all my cards into Forgeries and let the three of them handle the valid cards."
Yes, then I won't make management mistakes. But 3 people... leaving Meleoron aside, I feel it is dangerous for Seam to have a Specified Pocket Card.
Today is different, but Uranos and I always live in a double room, considering that Uranos often organizes his cards at night...
"Should I keep all the valid cards? It would be easier to organize that way."
"Of course, the Pearl Locust and Floating Stone that everyone has are different."
"I think you know, but you might become a target because of it, right?"
"Right now, Aisha and I are separated, but if we focus on one person, it might stand out in the rankings."
"Are you worrying too much?"
"Because this is a game to Collect 100 types. How many do you have now?"
Uranos blocked at Meleoron's position with an "uh."
"... 9 types."
"Not yet, if you are curious, why not check the rankings?"
"I don't think I've reached that stage yet."
"Hmm, hmm..."
"As expected, checking it at this time would be a waste of Ging and time."
"Then, should I hand it to Aisha first, and wait until we have collected a bit more, then discuss how to manage this card?"
"I think that is fine."
"Can I keep my card?"
"Yes... the Binder."
"What's wrong, Uranos?"
"I feel uncomfortable."
"Well done."
"I don't want to add a burden to Aisha, and the conversation ended earlier than expected, so I couldn't buy time—"
"Use!"
It is a humanoid star. Massage will help you realize that you are carrying too much.
Uranos took the card out of the open Binder and placed it on the Kotatsu. Afterwards, the cards in the Binder were moved to another page. After finishing, I came out from the Kotatsu to look for Luke. Slowing down, I am fishing with gentle movements.
"Hurry up."
When I called out with the emotion of "hurry up," Bikun and Uranos reacted and sped up. I have to struggle...
Uranos took out the memo and returned to the side of the Kotatsu. I took the necklace out of my clothes pocket and placed it on the Kotatsu.
While comparing the notes and cards, I removed "Advice of the Immortal King" and "Breath of the Archangel" from the stack of cards. Uranos returned them to the Binder. I didn't mind the 1-minute limit at all, because all the cards in my stack were Forgeries.
Seam looked at the situation curiously.
"Uranos, you have already noticed, haven't you?"
"Hmm? What are you talking about?"
"It doesn't matter if a minute has passed, this."
"You wouldn't even want to try it, would you?"
"Well, I have been doing some research."
"Forgery is a strange card in particular. After transforming, it does not count towards the card limit, and it cannot create items."
Indeed. However, even so, I discovered that if you increase the number of Forgery cards with "Copy," you will not be subject to the 1-minute limit.
"Well, I didn't suddenly discover it."
"I had a hint."
Law. A hint...
If that is the case, other players might notice. This is a trick.
"Wait a moment.
——'Copy/Clone' activate.
Remove this... Copy/Clone.
Yes.
Hmm, I told you when I entered this island from reality, didn't I?
Razor used a Game Master Spell to kick me out for entering the game illegally.
Just then, Razor took a card out of his shorts pocket."
…………
"That is to say, I haven't taken the card out of the Binder yet, and of course, there is a 1-minute time limit..."
"I won't.
I was curious, so I did some research.
When a card turns into an item over time, there is a trigger that starts counting during that one minute.
There is a strict schedule, and it is not when the card is taken out of the Binder or when the item turns into a card."
"What do you mean?"
"When a player picks up a card.
Perhaps that is the trigger for the minute count. You know, in the Department Store, cards are displayed perfectly. In that case, even if 1 minute passes, it still doesn't become an item, right?"
"It must be..."
Tianwangxing touches the necklace, reverting 'Fairy King's Admonition' and 'Angel's Breath' to 'Forgery'.
"——'Forgery' activate. 37.
——'Forgery' activate. 38.
In Razor's case, he is a Game Master, not a player, so I don't think the minutes have started counting yet.
I think it is a rule that the count starts when a player picks up a card, and the time limit does not reset unless it is placed into a Binder. Then it makes a lot of sense.
That is why this fake card was placed in a Binder but not treated as a card, so it couldn't turn into a usable item. Well, that's a bit of a stretch."
I see. This is a bit confusing. I am explaining while organizing the cards, so I am distracted while listening.
"Aisha, can you lend me a Binder?
I haven't deposited the designated Pocket Card yet, I will organize it while I sort the cards."
"Oh, yes. The book.
Please finish as soon as possible."
Tianwangxing did not answer. Thank you smoking Kemu I feel like I am trying to Wrap myself up...
