Chapter 26: Infiltration as a Maid (1)
Chapter 26: Infiltration as a Maid (1)
After deciding to form a party with Flora, the first thing I did was register in the Adventurer's Guild.
If you sign up as an adventurer, you can prove your identity, accumulating achievements is fun in itself, and most of all, there are more requests that a party can receive than solo.
I wrote down my personal information, took a photo, and received a card.
This time I was waiting for Flora to take pictures, but it took quite a long time. I thought I knew why Kiven asked why it took so long.
Flora, who went with her, was of great help to me, as she said.
For me, who did not have a magic-type ability, the only means of long-distance attack was throwing, but Flora made up for that.
It was also possible to solve the chronic problem of melee warriors, the lack of wide-area attacks.
Thanks to this, the speed of completing requests increased, and I settled into D rank smoothly. Flora was also able to go beyond F rank and become E rank in an instant.
It took me three days to reach E rank, but that was a strategy that only Koreans could use.
The evening that Flora was finally promoted to E rank.
"Cheers to Flora's E rank!"
"So, Soira. Don't be embarrassed..."
We became close friends while working on a few requests together and decided to talk. Flora, who was a princess, found it quite awkward, but she understood when I told her that adventurers who use polite language stand out for no reason.
"Well, E rank is important. Now you can call yourself an adventurer rather than an errand center. Open your chest!"
Phut. I patted her back and encouraged her, and Flora giggled even though her small body was shaking.
Isn't it illegal to laugh while covering your mouth with one hand? It's so cute. Is the princess even learning these gestures?
"Thank you. "If it weren't for Soira, I don't know what would have happened by now."
"Uhm... "
That's probably true.
I never imagined that the setting of 'not knowing what's going on in the world' would be so scary.
If you send someone on an errand, they get ripped off, and if you look away even a little, you're being sexually harassed. I had to teach them one by one, but it felt like I was controlling a game unit.
Now that I think about it, it's not really wrong.
Fortunately, I'm smart, so I don't tend to forget what I've learned once, so if I had to teach it over and over again, no matter how cute Flora was, she would've gotten a few hits.
Still, I am a woman who knows how to be considerate of others. She doesn't necessarily voice her complaints out loud.
"If you know, you guy. "Would you please keep what I said?"
"Huh? What did I do wrong again?"
"That's it."
Flora points to the floor next to her.
There was a pervert peeping up Flora's skirt, pretending to be a drunkard lying around.
"The cute girl has cute underwear too~ Are you a virgin?"
Even after being caught by me, he is still saying this.
If you don't like it, let's kick it.
Puck!
"Ugh. "There's no need to kick me~"
A pervert rolling away while shouting angrily until the end.
"Wow... "I didn't know."
"Oh my. "I guess so."
Aside from being excellent as a co-worker, Flora's penalty of 'bad luck' keeps perverting.
Moreover, perhaps because it was her first experience, Flora has a very high threshold for sexual harassment, so she just doesn't pay attention to sexual harassment.
Shouldn't we usually react more sensitively?
At first, I took them off one by one, but now I'm so tired that I just pretend not to notice them unless I do it too openly. He said he was fine.
And one of the reasons I decided to leave it alone was to defend the insertion as hard as possible. Although sexual harassment is a bad thing, it is also true that it is on a different level from penetration.
The only thing that makes me angry is that the people who cling to me are, at best, sexual harassers.
When I first saw Flora's penalty, the thrilling and erotic happenings I expected were nowhere to be found, and Flora was enjoying it alone.
Ugh. What is the use of lamenting about something like this? Let's celebrate Florana as it was originally intended.
That day she drank until Flora became drunk.
Nothing happened. Really.
Flora becoming her E rank also meant that our party could now receive party requests in earnest.
Even when I was F-rank, I was there, so I was able to receive subjugation requests. However, since it was not recognized as a party that could fight, it was just a request that could be received even if you were solo.
While looking for a good request on the request board, Flora brought me a request.
"Soira, how about this?"
"Flora? Did you find something good?"
「Eradication of Bandits」
"Please exterminate the bandits around the village. We will reward you based on the number of bandits you have killed. If you kill every single one of them, we will prepare additional rewards."
It's an ordinary request. Asking to chase or kill a specific target... If it were an old game, it would be like a repeat quest.
The compensation isn't bad either. It seems like a good request to gain experience.
Last time I fought the thief boss, it was very annoying due to my lack of skill. Should I do this request to increase my skill level?
Let's see. The requested village...
... Let's stop. It's too far.
"Flora. It's too far from here. Just the round-trip fare alone will cost half of our compensation."
"Okay? Sorry, I don't know the name of the town..."
"Things like that happen, too. Still, I think the request itself is okay. Shall we focus on exterminating thieves and bandits?"
"Huh! Stay here!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Flora handed over another bundle of paper she was holding.
I took a quick look and found that all of them were requests related to bandits or thieves.
"Um, Flora? When did you bring it?"
"You brought it from the beginning? Because all the thieves have to be eradicated."
There was no light in Flora's eyes as she mumbled like that, so I was a little scared.
It's true that it was a trauma, but she turned it into revenge.
It's a much more positive direction than shaking and being terrified.
"Uh, Flora? We can't do this many things at once, so let's do them one by one. Huh?"
"Huh? Even a cow says something strange. "No matter how much I am, I know that, right?"
"Okay... "
Your eyes were never like that.
I submitted two or three requests for extermination of bandits seen in a nearby mountain to the reception desk and left the guild.
Why are there multiple bandits on one mountain? After all, it's a game, so that's all I can say.
This is good for users because they can fill out requests.
"But, wait... "
"Why? Soira."
Before leaving for the quest with my luggage, I took a look at Flora.
The see-through dress that Flora was originally wearing has long since gone deep into her bag, and now Flora is wearing the magic costume I bought in Coris Village. Just repair the chest.
"Flora is in good shape now, but it's a bit weird for her to wear the clothes I've been wearing forever. Should we go buy some clothes?"
"Clothes? This is enough for me... "
"No. Of course, it's a good design, but since I bought it for myself, there's something subtly awkward about Flora. "The design is the same, the color is the same."
"Color? But since Sora is light purple, it's not much different from mine... "
"That's a big difference! Good. Let's buy some clothes first!"
Pink and light purple are different. Hugely.
I dragged Flora to the clothing store.
Request? I'll do it a little later. Look is the most important thing.
"Oh my~ How can your hair color be so pretty? If the color is this pretty, this color will suit you well. Or would you like to see that color?"
It is a cliché for a clothing store manager to be muscular, but fortunately, the clothing store manager in this city was an ordinary woman.
As soon as the manager of the clothing store saw Flora, he was very excited, saying he had never seen such vivid colors before.
Perhaps because Flora was a princess in her own right, she naturally accepted such fuss.
"Ah. Please wear a magic costume. "He's a wizard."
"Oh. She was a wizard girl. Then, a costume with magical magic would be good. Let's see. Where did you put it... "
After a while, the clothes the store manager brought were truly wizard-like clothes.
..? It was sleeveless and had a deep cut in the back, and her skirt didn't cover even half of her thighs.
"Is this really a good defense? With an area like this, it seems like it will break through no matter where it hits... "
"Ah. Our prosecutor lady didn't know? Among magic costumes, those that operate using the wearer's magical power originally have a small area. The lighter the weight, the more magic it can contain. Since the weight of the fabric cannot be reduced, the area becomes smaller. "If you really care, you can wear a cape or shawl."
I beg your pardon? There was no setting like that the last time I did it? Hero Serena wasn't wearing her full body armor for no reason.
Did you set it up this time? Now that I think about it, something seems to come to mind, sometimes it doesn't...
I brought up the WM settings list for a moment and searched for it.
「Magic Costume – Weight Inverse Proportion」
"The lighter the enchanted costume, the better the enchantment."
... Ah.
I remembered.
When I discovered this setting, I remembered choosing it while giggling, 'This is right. Normally, female characters' defense goes up when exposure increases.'
Hmm...
What...
Anyway, Flora looks sexy and cute in that outfit, so it's okay!
