discovered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flight operations will be handled by twelve angels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a precaution, three mountain elves with prior crew experience will accompany them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The passengers are the investigators Bell and Yoru.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several members of the test excavation team will guide them on site.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roughly twenty devils and dream demons from Village Four will work as survey workers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fifteen angels will serve as the main escort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with them travel fifty spiderlings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike last time, the spiderlings will stay behind the lines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spiderlings will only step in if the angels cannot handle a threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, they will guard the test excavation team and workers with their full strength, so they will not be idle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We also need cooks, but the oni maids are busy, so a few beastgirls who can cook have agreed to come along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preparing meals for so many will be hard, yet I am counting on them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition to this group, the angel Suarurou will join the voyage to audit the angels working aboard the ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suarurou is the mother of Suaruriu and Suarukou and once claimed the title of strongest angel before Tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She is more than qualified to serve as the angels’ inspector.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She will also be a formidable reserve fighter should the worst occur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, it’s a one time trial mission, so I’ve asked them to return in ten days, no matter what they find out there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any longer than that, and the Universal Ship might decide to go retrieve them on its own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I really hope they come back safely and on schedule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as I was thinking that, Tou, the captain of the Universal Ship, came running in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Village Chief, the Universal Ship is getting restless!」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…The airship hasn’t even been gone for an hour, has it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can it really wait for ten days?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roasted sweet potatoes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s still a bit early in the season, but Zabuton and most of her spiderlings will start hibernating while waiting for winter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We roast the sweet potatoes we harvested from the summer fields.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few of the spiderlings did a little dance of joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’re adorable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some villagers who had free time helped out with the roasting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks, everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sweet potatoes are done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As usual, the villagers love them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zabuton and her spiderlings also eat a lot, looking happy with every bite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah, seconds are fine too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We still have plenty of sweet potatoes, so eat as much as you want.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s keep roasting them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Depending on the variety, some sweet potatoes are fluffy while others are sticky, but they all disappear just the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, there’s no need to argue over which one tastes better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’re both delicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t that enough?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the record, I prefer the fluffy kind, but I’ll eat the sticky ones too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lately, Zabuton and her spiderlings have been focusing on one particular task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’re making an outfit for Alfred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently, he asked them to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a suit with a chic design, mainly black, accented with purple and red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It has white frills at the wrists, ankles, and around the neck, but it doesn’t look too flashy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It gives off a refined impression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even on the mannequin, it’s clearly made for a tall, slender man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……..\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I looked at the mannequin dressed in the suit, I asked Loo something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why does Alfred prefer such tall height?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don’t think he’s short as he is, but… could it be a complex of some sort?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Ah—um—well—」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loo hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed like she knew the reason Alfred favored height.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「It’s not that he prefers being tall. He just needs long arms and legs…」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Let me show you.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loo transformed into a tall figure, like how Alfred appears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her arms and legs were long, and her frame was slender.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Beautiful, right?」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You are indeed beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「And now… this stays between us, okay?」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loo struck a pose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoa, she looks just like a lady of the abyss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she shifted to another pose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now she looks like a mysterious female executive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Cool, right?」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You look cool!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a new side of Loo I hadn’t seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「So…」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loo made herself look younger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About the same age as Alfred when he’s not transformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took the same poses as before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「How is it? Do I look beautiful and cool?」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well… if I had to say, you’re more cute than anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Definitely cute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a child doing a little performance… Ah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Exactly. In Alfred’s current form, even if he poses, the cuteness stands out too much.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I-I see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So that’s why he prefers a taller form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Longer limbs also make the poses look better. It gives more room around the body.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loo, back in her tall form, brought her hand up in front of her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「See? If your elbows are too close to your body, it looks cramped.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So that’s why Alfred likes having a tall figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alright, that clears it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「You’re welcome.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loo returned to her usual appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, you knew a lot about this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「…It’s something everyone goes through.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A new question formed in my mind, but Loo didn’t answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Setting my questions aside for now, I handed the menpo to Zabuton, as requested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>TN: Menpo is a particular type of Mengu or facial armor which covers the lower half of the face, specifically the entire nose and chin. It’s what the samurais were using.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The menpo doesn’t cover the entire face. It hides everything from below the eyes down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since there wasn’t a specific material requirement, I used wood from the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was carved with an angry mouth design, and within that design, small, discreet holes were added for breathing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was part of the request, but… won’t wearing this with the outfit make it look a bit too intimidating?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I asked Zabuton, she said it would be fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently, a cloth extending from the neck will act as a mask to hide the menpo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hide it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then what’s the point of the menpo?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Zabuton could answer, Loo stepped in and explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「It’s for when he’s in serious mode.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Ah, so when the menpo is visible, it means he’s going all out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then what about the high-collared black cloak placed separately from the rest of the outfit? Does that have something hidden too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Zabuton explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The color changes?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When magic power is infused into the stone at the collar, it activates Mereo’s transparent liquid… and patterns appear as the color shifts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That transparent liquid from Mereo can be controlled with magic power?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loo stepped forward and puffed out her chest proudly in front of Zabuton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「It’s the result of my research.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s impressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are so many ways this could be used.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Right?」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’d like to explore all the possible applications.\u003C\u002Fp>",1161,"2026-06-05T23:08:41.452Z",1,"novelbin.me","501b20b71fd544f9a1503df14a868a7bfc5a42f9dedf1dc8da753de025f389b8","isekai-nonbiri-nouka-chapter-947","isekai-nonbiri-nouka-chapter-945",1036,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fisekai-nonbiri-nouka-cover.jpg"]
