Being Able to Edit Skills in Another World, I Gained OP Waifus

"So, since Cecil and I are now officially 'soul-dealers'

I'm here.

In the living room away, me and Cecil reported to everyone.

'Wow, surprise congratulations, Cecil-chan,'

That's what I'm talking about. You pulled off the Engage Ceremony.

It's .......

Rita's cheekbones are on the table, Aine's eyes are shining, and Letitia's turning bright red.

But you're so nonchalant. No one is surprised.

...... Come to think of it, this house has a lot of sound going through it.

Even when I was in my room, I could hear Aine and the others.

So you all have a general idea of what's going on. Well, that's fine.

Cecil is feeling better now, so now we just need to take it easy and head to Ilgafa.

Rita-san, Aine-san.

Next to me, Cecil nodded as if he had made up his mind to do something.

I moved closer to Rita and Aine and took their hands in mine with my tiny ones.

''Both of you, please come to your rooms with Nagi-sama.

What? Hey, Cecil?

...... Cecil. No way.

"You two should make a 'soul promise' to Nagi-sama.

Wow, wow!

...... Aine too?

I thought you were going to say something like that!　It's Cecil!

Maybe.

I figured out how to use the ability rebuild level 3, and where the souls are located.

It may not be as easy as Cecil's, but if you give it time, you should be able to 'soul-promote' with Rita and Aine.

...... Aine is fine.

But Aine gently let go of Cecil's hand.

'I don't think it's too early for that sort of thing, Aine.

I know.

Aine has her own brother, Naiad, to deal with.

You can't tie me and my soul together so easily, can you?

But what do you mean when you take out a small card from the chest of your maid's uniform - the kind you use for radio exercises - and say "I haven't accumulated my service points yet, so ......"?

And Rita, on the other hand...

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

She shook her head frantically, shaking her golden hair.

'Why is that, Rita?'

'It's not natural!　Of course we can't be together!

So why won't you let go of my hand, Rita?

Yeah. It's strange.

Rita, I don't know how long it took you to get up and walk towards me.

".................. Oh, what?　Why eeeeeeeeeeee?

Rita let go of Cecil's hand with a bang.

I'm not going to be able to get to the bottom of it.

'No, no, Nagi!　You're still "engaged" with Cecil, right?　Make sure you properly establish the 'Unity Spirit (Spirit Link)' before you do it!

But you should at least practice your 'soul promise'.

Why?

Because Rita was always at the vanguard of our party.

So, Rita has the highest chance of being injured.

I want to be able to use the great recovery of 'Soul Promise' in case of an emergency. Besides, it's the theory in the game to assign higher skills to the vanguard characters. It's a good idea to experiment with the difference between magic and sacred power in Rita's case, so I want to experiment with various things.

I'm not sure if that's the case, but...

It makes so much sense, I hate it!

And since Rita is a lonely person, I think she'll feel better if she's connected to us.

No, that's not true. I'm not a lonely person.

If you don't like ...... Rita, I'm not saying you have to.

What?

Why do you look like an abandoned puppy over there?

Do you still want me to just practice?

No, I don't!　I'm not ashamed of that!　Not, no!　No, I won't!　I want to, I don't want to, I don't want to - I don't want to, I don't want to - oh, my God!

Rita?

She turned bright red and screamed, held her mouth like she was startled by her line, reiterated it, held her chest in her pajamas, and wagged her tail...

Are you freaking out so much that you don't know what you're going to do with yourself?

"Don't worry, it's just practice. It's just a practice run, you know, to see if you can engage.

'Wow!　Garu-ruh!

Don't go wild.

What should I do? I don't want to force it.

But I'd like to be able to use the big recovery in case of an emergency. ......

.................. It can't be helped.

Let's use a cheat persuasion method here.

'Cecil, come here for a minute.'

I beckon Cecil over to me.

In the corner of the room, I put my face close to his long ears and listen so Rita can't hear me.

...... Huh?　Ha, yes, Rita, you can go to ............

Cecil turned red to the tips of his ears and nodded his head in agreement.

Then Cecil went back to Rita, looking up at her face as he said

'You don't want to be with Cecil, Rita, do you, sister?'

Guffaw!

A stroke of the sea.

Rita slumped down, holding her chest.

Phew. This is impossible to resist.

''Cecil will be lonely without his reincarnated sister Rita, won't he?

Haha!

If you and I unite our souls with Nagi's and reincarnate, maybe we can become real sisters in the next life, Rita!

'Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!'

Rita cowered with her head in her hands.

Cecil's mental attack (evasion disabled. Physical defense disabled) was critical.

''Rita-san. Let's be honest?

But, but, but...

'I'm not afraid. I'm just going to practice. And I want to stay with you, Rita.

Have you been with Goshujin and Sesshuru for a long time?　Happiness......

Rita looked up.

Her cherry-red eyes were downcast.

Rita looked as if she was sleepwalking, and Cecil pulled her hand to me.

Oh, it was too much.

I thought it was best to attack Rita, who likes cute things and Cecil, with her sister character.

The mental attack is working too well, and I'm losing consciousness. Sorry, Rita.

Goshujin-sama, please. Make me the same as Seshiru: ............

Rita's words, which she was about to say, stopped midway through.

The golden beast ears reacted with a pikun. A light flickers in her blank eyes.

Rita returned with a straight face and looked me in the eye and said.

Nagi. I feel a presence. Someone's coming over here.

Demon?

"...... No. Sounds like metal. It's human.

Aine heard Rita's voice and took the broomstick and Leticia approached the window.

'It looks like soldiers. There are three of them. 'At this hour?'

I have a bad feeling about this.

The people who come to visit me without thinking about the time are usually not very good.

I'll talk to him. Cecil will stand behind me. Aine and Letitia, be ready for anything.

Nagi, what about me?

Rita, go get Leggy from your room. Also, act as a liaison to Iris in case of an emergency.

Rita would be able to make a quick trip to Hapheumea's mansion and back.

'All right. And Nagi.

Yeah?

...... I'll get back to you later on about your misuse of little Cecil, okay?

Peeps and peeps.

Rita followed my instructions, shaking her beast ears and wearing a drawn-out smile.

Honest and good. Even when she's angry, she's cute.

Well.

I wonder what our uninvited guest was up to.

"We're going to have to leave at night!

There was a tap on the door.

'We are the guards at the service of Master Iris!　Open the door!

It's ......, at this hour.

I stifled a yawn and opened the door with a "I was half asleep" look on my face.

Standing on the other side of the door were three men in armor.

Standing in the lead was a large man with a beard.

He looks like a mighty warrior.

I'm not sure if I'm right for this. Don't shout.

We need to get a move on.

I know. I know you're worried about Lady Iris, aren't you?　Tell him I'll send him to say hello when he's healed. He's about the same height, and he's a good kid, so I'm sure we'll get to know each other soon.

I tried to talk to him.

The bearded soldier stared at me with a twitch of his lips.

Or do you want me to go to Lady Iris now?

No need.

I was just going to give the book back to you while I was at it.

You'll get that one back soon.

...... Why?

Matilda says that we shouldn't let a stranger like you meet with Lord Iris any longer. We are here to tell you that. In the morning, get the hell out of town.

The bearded soldier said while in a careful posture.

Matilda-sama - it's that maid, isn't it?

She sent them here to warn us. To warn them?

...... No, no.

The two guys in the back are standing by, side by side, to make sure I don't get away.

"And yet, we are now on high alert. We will be on high alert, and we will eliminate anyone who comes near the mansion. I'll have them remembered.

Whoever that is.

Yes.

What about those adventurers you hired?

They'll guard the outside of the compound. I don't think you know your place, so I'll tell you. Listen to me.

The soldiers clicked, clicked, clicked the hilt of their swords.

"We are soldiers officially employed by the Ilgafa Lordship for many years - regular soldiers. We're not like temporary adventurers!

...... is to protect Iris. Why don't you just cooperate?

You're kidding me!

The men stomped their feet.

'We have served the Ilgafa Lord family for over ten years. That's how good we've been recognized!　You're not with those adventurers and others!

You!　You're getting carried away with the fact that you've been favored by Iris-sama!

You don't need to come all the way down here in the evening to talk about something that doesn't belong to you.

It doesn't matter to me.

I can't help but think you're underestimating your job by refusing to take on people because they're sick!　Having someone like that around is a hindrance to our work ethic!　What are you going to do about it!

I don't know!

Anyway, I don't need you guys or your information!

...... "Wait a minute, what's the information?

These guys heard it right, didn't they?

We did make sure to tell the town guards about the undead and the information about the Black Armor.

We pretended that we hadn't defeated it, so we couldn't tell him that it was a sludgy chimera inside, but we did tell him that the armor was pretty hard, and that we had to use a magic sword or, if it wasn't, a warhammer-type weapon to crush the joints. I also told them that it would be better to use a magic sword, or if not, a striking weapon like a warhammer to crush the joints and block the movement.

These guys are listening to that, aren't they?

'Ha!　We, the regulars, don't need information from you.

You're all over the place!

There were managers in the original world who ignored the opinions of the people on the ground.

In my world, lives are at stake.

"You have a bad attitude. You.

The bearded soldier clicked his tongue.

As a signal, the soldiers behind him drew their swords.

''Could it be that you were in control of the 'Black Armor (Living Mail)'?

If it was ......, I'd be running when you guys got here.

It could be a trap to throw us off guard. If you're the enemy, a good beating will reveal you.

What if he doesn't show himself?

It's an enemy that is very good at hiding its true identity!

This is bullshit.

These guys are not going to start with that.

They're not going to talk to us. We're gonna force us to admit we're enemies of Iris, aren't we? Just because they don't like us, that's all.

"Iris doesn't need an equal friend. We should show him how untrustworthy people outside ...... are and that we are the only ones he can rely on!

That's the worst kind of education.

That's for us to decide.

A bearded man holds a sword. It's a double-edged greatsword.

'And if a regularly employed soldier is saved by a mere adventurer, it will affect the assessment. If we pretend that you are the enemy, our mistake is gone.

You were in control of the Living Mail and the undead. You were in on it from the start. You put on a show to get to Master Iris. How devious of you. Why should we, the honest people, be lulled into a false sense of security?　If you take your arm or your leg with you, I'm sure Lady Iris will agree. Don't you think that's a good idea?

Not at all.

What is ......?

It's a little bit of a long shot.

Too messy. Too many holes.

I'm going to get ripped apart as soon as I get rammed down the throat.

"If Iris is attacked after we're gone, you'll be blamed for letting us go. If we're the enemy, you'll be running away with all the information about the Ilgafa lordship's troops and operations.

......

'That said, if you tie us up and bring us before Iris, we'll claim our innocence. We'll prolong the conversation thoroughly. If the Living Mail attacks while we're being held, our innocence will be confirmed. Since we haven't yet accomplished our goal of kidnapping Iris, won't the enemy come at some point?

All you have to do is tell them the enemy is here to save you.

Will the Irgafa Lords' legions move the suspect and Iris together?

...... It's...

It can't be. We'll be separated from Iris. If the enemy attacked Iris, we wouldn't be there at all. Therefore, your point is not valid.

"...... Ugh, shut up!　You're a dead man!

Wouldn't it affect your assessment if you killed a suspect based on field judgment?

'A mess!　All you do is talk, you adventurer!

These guys didn't have good information. So it was a waste of time.

Well, at least we know that Ilgafa's regulars can't be trusted.

"The biggest mistake you made was...

I raise my hand.

To tell me when to attack.

'It's only a regular soldier picking a fight with a guy who has a cheat character!

'It's entirely too sweet. It's a waste of time for you guys to use 'Chiito Sukiru'.

I heard Cecil's voice.

He's standing behind me, his hands on his hips. I can hear his voice. It's chanting.

Two incantations are flowing out of Cecil's beautiful lips at the same time.

"O genie, let there be light before me. Lamp!

"'Spiritual breath, shoot my enemy. 'Arrow of Fire!'

It's Cecil's new skill 'Double Casting'.

It allows you to chant two spells at the same time.

Cecil waved his thin arm and pointed his fingertips at the soldiers.

The one fired from the fingertips of his right hand was a ball of light.

What was fired from the fingertips of his left hand was an arrow of fire.

They wouldn't miss at this distance. The arrow of fire strikes the chest of the bearded soldier and the ball of light hits the face of the soldier who was behind him. Furthermore, Cecil chanted continuously. If he can chant two level 1 magic at the same time, that means he can fire continuously at twice the speed.

''Gyaaaaaaah! My eyes, my eyes, oh my God!

The soldiers scream as they are bombarded with one spell after another.

'Get away from my master. Rude.''

Gross. Gross. Gross.

Furthermore, Rita's kick, which jumped out of the air, blew the three men away.

More from over the heads of those men as they rolled to the ground.

Oh, I'm sorry. My hand slipped.

with a splash

The muddy water that fell from the roof hit the soldiers.

'When did you get up there, Letitia?

'I'll clean it up in a minute. Please, Aine.'

"Yes, sir. I want it shining right now. The ground.

A maid appears from inside the house with a mop in her hand.

She spins around and gives me a bow.

Bam, bam, bam, bam

In the meantime, one after another, muddy water and tub after tub hit the soldiers.

Puddles of water were forming underneath the soldiers' feet.

Nah-kun, it's dangerous. Don't move from a safe distance...

"Safe distance?

I'm in the doorway. The distance from Aine is about ten meters.

That's about the extent of the effect of this skill.

Aine slams the mop down on the puddle.

She glared at the stunned bearded soldier and declared.

You deserve to die for scaring Nah-kun. It's a good idea to suck it up and use the special kill 'Sewage Increase Lv 1'.

The mop - began to spin at high speed.

Underneath Aine's feet, a puddle of water swirled around. The amount of water increases.

At the same time, the ground underneath my feet - a little toe to be exact - was cracked.

The weeds that had been growing for a little while were dying in the blink of an eye.

It's as if they were deprived of water.

"Gugaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!

The bearded soldier holds his feet and screams.

Reddish water is flowing from the gap between the iron shin guards.

Is that the sweat of the bearded man - or is that water from his body?

...... So you're forcibly siphoning off the increased water from the surroundings.

The "Sewage Increase LV1" increases the amount of "dirty water" that Aine touches with her cleaning tools by 20%.

The increased water is then forcibly (・・・・・) sucked up (・・・・) from the surroundings (・・・・・) and from the air (・・・・・・).

From the ground, from plants, and from the air. And from its bodily fluids, if people are touching it.

Except for the user of the skill, Aine.

'Don't, don't, what the hell is this?

Aine didn't do anything. He's just making more water.

'Aaaaah!

Both of the soldier's legs begin to twitch.

I wonder how much is 20% of four tubs of muddy water.

At least it's going to be enough water to cause severe heat stroke.

'Hee, hee ...... hee ..................'

Aine, stop. He's gonna die if we don't stop. A dead body in here could get him in trouble.

Yes, master.

Aine lifted the mop.

The eddy in the water disappeared, and the increased muddy water flowed out towards the surroundings. ...... Wait a minute.

Didn't we just fix the sewage spatially?

Does this skill fix the sewage in a radius of about 10 meters, with a 20% increase, until the skill is released (・・・・・・)?

...... cool. "Sewage increase level 1".

"Gah-ha-ha. Bah, blah, blah, blah, blah, the wizard wasn't sick: ...... that's a different story.

Two of the three soldiers are rolling around, holding their eyes.

His bearded face is shaking in a puddle of water with his hands and feet.

"I don't know what you guys think, but we're not here to antagonize you. I don't understand your values, but we don't want to antagonize you," he said, "We don't want to work and we don't care about anything else. Now get back to guarding Iris.

Of course, before that, though, Aine's 'Memory Cleaning LV1' will erase the memories of the last few ten minutes.

''d*mn it. We're proud Ilgafa's regular soldiers!　I don't take orders from a bunch of furloughed adventurers...

'If you're proud, do your job!　You're not going to do something stupid, leaving the mission alone!

If I was the enemy, I'd take Iris right now.

The regulars are downed by the undead and still recovering.

The adventurers are freshly mauled and not coordinated.

The townspeople are upset that the cemetery protector was broken.

If the enemy has the strength to fight, the best thing to do is to attack them now.

"-You don't think about that!

'There's no such thing as an attack in this town!　If there is, I'll take the responsibility and give this life for it!

Enemy attack!

Shortly after the bearded soldier ranted, a shout rang out from across the river.
