Nidome no Yuusha Chapter 31

Chapter 31 (v2c4) The Hero Experiences the Feeling of Nausea from Flattery
Every night I kept hearing scratching sounds at the door when I was trying to sleep. When I try to check what was it, there I saw an old lady angrily looking at me then she shouted, "READ IT AT ROW!"
“I'm really sorry, I heard the Black Orc’s roar, so I rushed here from the highway as soon as I heard it’s voice…….., but to appear just before it met its end……..”
Sunny, yet dark green coloured hair was clasped together with a wooden flower clip put on the right side of the head, and let loose to the side, hanging freely. The woman’s hair seemed to give off a gentle impression caused by the sun shining and reflecting off it.
As the name suggests, she is the daughter of the City Lord of Erumia; a n.o.ble, and a Magic Researcher.
“Even if there were two of you, why were you using weapons instead of magic? Black Orc’s are quite the dangerous opponent…….. No, that isn’t an explanation. I haven’t even confirmed the situation, I’m truly sorry for my behaviour.”
The truth is, she stole someone else’s prey. I endured the urge to scream what I was thinking while making a flattering smile that made me nauseous.
We~ll, I acted on premise since I knew the circ.u.mstances and structure of the place. Therefore, I could take revenge on the princess, the king, the queen, and the knights that were unable to stand up to me, so they could only endure.
“By the way, how were you able to hold up until now without the use of magic? I’m sorry, but….”
We are in a two person team and we haven’t hired a carriage to look more like ordinary citizens, so you cannot differentiate us at a single glance. Moreover, we don’t look like influential people.
“That strangely shaped blade, does it perhaps have a secret to it? Ah, no, that’s rude of me to ask the secrets of an adventurer.”
“Is that so…….. I didn’t know who weakened the Black Orc, I was looking around while heading here and saw that he was already able to escape……..”
“Either way, the person who weakened the monster cannot be confirmed. I would like to obtain the entirety of the Black Orc materials and its delivery. So, I would like to ask that of you, can you sell this Black Orc to me?”
“Yes, I would like it right here. How about 5 gold coins? I have a Grade 2 tool bag, I can undertake the delivery right here.”
The 2nd Grade tool bag has the abilities to reduce the weight to 1/20 of its original weight, and it has the capacity to store about a room with the length of 8-tatami mats.
The tool bag is similar to my [Round squirrel sword sack], but with limitations added to it, so there is no demerit in having one either.
Even when retrieving, the mouth of the tool bag opens wide, therefore it’s possible to store large objects inside it, but it doesn’t absorb objects as soon as it’s brought close to the bag. So, when more stuff is piled into it, it has become harder to retrieve specific objects.
Many Veteran adventurers will have this tool bag, but most intermediate adventurers who work hard can only buy up to a 5th Grade tool bag with a lifetime investment.
I begin tucking him into bed and he tells me, “Daddy check for monsters under my bed.” I look underneath for his amus.e.m.e.nt and see him, another him, under the bed, staring back at me quivering and whispering, “Daddy there’s somebody on my bed.”
Even in the Kingdom, we only have the capability to buy two 5th grade tool bags, but the round sack is clearly superior despite having to sacrifice 5% of the upper amount of our MP.
“A Grade 2 tool bag~, that's quite amazing. A~ah, don’t worry too much about the price. Originally, we wouldn’t have been able to sell it, since we don’t have the capability to carry it. I also don’t really know the price of the Black Orc, so selling it to a beauty is fine.”
As a flattery or as a joke, as soon as I praised her, it left a nauseating and a sour feeling in my mouth, as if a rotten fruit was stuffed into it. I even thought about hitting the Black Orcs face on impulse, but doing so would surely cause problems for my plans in the future, so I restrained myself.
If you had tried to cheat me by ignoring market value, I would have surely called you out on that, as usual, the surface of this human is still perfect.
“Please take care of me during that time.”
When Yumis activated her magic, the ground rose and out came sand and stone, which was gathering and rising to make form.
“1, 2……..5, this is 5 gold coins. Here you go.”
Upon receiving it, I briefly bowed, and Yumis received the tool bag from the golems and proceeded to go away from town.
Tl: Iron Mask in this instance can also expressed as Expressionless, Hard, or cold as ice. Etc.
“A~ah, that's right. This has been quite the unexpected event.”
Minaris was murmuring something with a small voice at the end, but I wasn’t able to hear it.
“The Iron Mask skill is very irritating, if both of us seem expressionless whenever we meet a revenge subject, then that would alert them. Honestly, taking such a friendly att.i.tude with her made me feel nauseous, but I was able to handle it.”
“That is so, that feeling is the lowest. Let's do it together, whether we will be cheerful together, or feel worst together.”
“Wa, what is it? What is with this weird self indulgent fantasy?”
“Ha~a, We~ll, that's fine too.”
“Nope, I shall make the meal. Please change your preferences and allow me to make it..”
“Cooking is my hobby after all. Moreover, I don’t like having food cooked by the likes of those humans. Or, is it that you dislike my cooking?”
“Ara, did you never notice? A woman is a creature that's very good and has cunning plans.”
“........She obtained objectives using cunning means, and becomes a vile creature to obtain them if dominated.”
Most likely, she remembered one of her Revenge candidates, the words said by Rosha.
“We~ll, I don’t have any problems since Minaris’s cooking is quite delicious.”
“Iya, aren't you trying to hide those expressions while using the Iron Mask skill?”
“I think that trying the other Chefs dishes will be helpful as well though. Since Minaris already knows the basics, eating out will be quite helpful.”
“Oi, oi, is that so. Iya, We~ll, that's fine, I guess?”
Once I confirmed that the Iron Mask skill had been deactivated from her expressions, we proceeded to head toward Erumia.
“By the way, we haven’t had breakfast yet.”
On that day, Minaris used a little extra eggs in the kitchen to make breakfast that was quite extravagant.
"I choked her to death then cut her in small pieces so I could take my meat to my rooms, cook and eat it. How sweet and tender her little a.s.s was roasted in the oven. It took me 9 days to eat her entire body. I did not f.u.c.k her, though, I could of had I wished. She died a virgin." Albert Fish said.
