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

In the end, I couldn't beat the Elder Slime.

Or rather, Letitia stopped me.

''You'll be trapped in the 'Contract (Contract)'!　Stop it, Nagi!

I almost got mad at Elder Slime and forgot about it.

I made a 'contract' with Letitia to 'take good care of the villa'.

With the 'Delayed Combat' (Delayed Arts), if I cause fatal damage to the house, I've violated the contract. I would lose ownership of the villa and my slave contract with Aine would be terminated.

Worst case scenario, I might get the 'punishment of the contract'.

And another reason why I didn't attack him.

Because ............ Elder Slime started to cry in a raggedy way.

'No, I've been dumped anyway!　I want you to be a part of this.

I'm sorry.

Huh.

After being told that, I got distracted, and eventually (releasing the "Delayed Combat" in an unpopular place), we decided to listen to the Elder Slime.

'I'm sorry for being rude, so there is. I haven't had anyone to talk to strawberries in a long time. ......'

Of course it is.

"The straw hides in the waters of this city.

The Elder Slime, giggling, giggling, dripping blue from his body, began to talk about why he was here, popping, popping, popping.

As I said in the beginning, he was strengthened by the elves to become the Elder Slime.

But apparently he was discarded because the first researcher died. It was because the elf who took over the research was incompetent and couldn't complete the Elder Slime.

That guy who was abandoned lived in the waterways afterwards, hiding in the waterways. All the time. For a long time.

But in the past few weeks, something has started to happen to his body.

''Probably because of being discarded unfinished, the body began to bloat. I've never lived outside of town, but it's not like I can't be seen. He was wandering around looking for a place to live when he found himself here: ......

I guess it's time for me to live out my life, and it's good that I've set this vacant house as a place to die, but the speed of my body's enlargement was faster than I expected.

Before the festival - because the sea dragon Kerkator is approaching the town, the magic power in the atmosphere is getting thicker, and that's having an effect on it. Not only did it not stop multiplying, but it couldn't even move its body properly anymore.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the ...... body swell up and eventually it will engulf the house and send it flying.

"...... hey!

'We need a piece of the elven body to stop the runaway!　It could be a hair or the tip of a fingernail. If you take it in, the cells of the straw should stabilize and return to their original state. Please. Even the strawberry doesn't really want to bother the young ...... so there is.'

I say this while dripping blue jelly from my body, so .......

I've decided to help the Elder Slime.

The fact that the elder slime is true has been confirmed by comparing Cecil and Reggie's information.

The messengers guarding the Elven Forest are created to require the hair, claws and body fluids - or, frankly, cells - of the elves to maintain their bodies. If you cross them, you can get rid of them immediately. But the messengers are said to continue to guard the elves for as long as they live.

I understand, but ...... was very annoying.

I understand. Anyway, all you have to do is get the elves.

And my skill, "Life Negotiation 《Life Negotiation》 LV1," led to the following treaty between me and the Elder Slime.

(1) Souma-Nagy said, "I will provide part of the elves (hair, claws, and body fluids) to the Elderslime. The Elder Slime will take it into its body as food (a source of magic).

(2) The Elder Slime "will prey on it and at the same time evacuate the house with open arms. It will also not antagonize Souma-Nagy and the others until the conclusion or failure of negotiations is confirmed.

Then I had to go out again.

"I see that the Lord is not so worried about you.

At my back, Demon Sword Leggy said.

''Really?　Nagi.

Rita, who was walking next to me, looks into my face.

This is the main street of the town. We are now heading to the Adventurer's Guild of Ilgafa.

I had the magic sword Reggie for self-defense and Rita to follow me as my bodyguard.

''That's right. I'm sure that if you go to the Adventurers Guild, you'll find at least one of the elves there. If you tell them what's going on and ask them to help you, or make a formal request through the guild, I don't think you'll have much trouble.

"Not funny. Lord.

Suddenly, with a pop, a Leggy in human form appeared in front of me.

The size of a handful of human beings, swinging their red twin-tails, and perched on my shoulder.

''My God, I didn't know you couldn't control a single slime.

You can't do anything about the level difference.

"You are too kind, my Lord. How can I respond to that favor?" ......

The figure-sized Leggy clapped his hands with a plop.

'Right!　I've got a great plan!'

Nice plan?

'Mmm!　Let's say we summon a usable slime for the night!　I hide it in the beast girl's bed, and when she's asleep, we start our activities. I stimulate every part of her body, both visible and invisible, to bring her into heat, and then the Lord appears. How about the Lord teaching the daughter who has lost her reason to be happy?　The Lord is happy, the beast girl is happy, and I'm happy because I get to take my time to watch the whole thing.......stop it!　Stop trying to throw my body into the sea!'

The first thing that comes to mind is the fact that I'm not going to be able to get a hold of you.

I put the sword that I had been holding towards the sea back on my back.

"I've always told you to stay out of trouble.

Okay. Then let's check. The beast girl. Don't you like it?

What kind of reaction do you want me to have here?

I'm going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to get the best out of it.

It's a great way to get a better idea of what's going on.

This reaction is ...... angry, isn't it ......?

Anyway. Now it's against the Elderslime!

Rita changed the subject as if to hide her embarrassment, with a bright red face.

'If I knew an elf, it would be a quicker conversation: ......

'Fine. I know the Iturna cult was human supreme.

I'm sorry. I can't help you.

"Hmmm, sweet beast girl. I've got an idea.

Hiding behind my collar, the doll, Leggy, turned his chest away.

I met him in the spa town. The Lord may have been too busy fighting, but I still remember his face.

Now that you mention it, I've thought of something.

I remember meeting ...... or rather, an elf girl who was almost mixed up in a hot spring.

She must have been in the procession of the legion.

On the other hand, that's about all I know of the elves.

What was Leggy's person like?

"I have seen a man of great talent.

A gem?

It's like, "How can I put it. It makes me want to tinker with my body and mind just by looking at it, or it makes me want to pull out the true nature deep inside.

Why are you waving your hands around, Reggie?

Rita is really pulling it off.

I'm sure he doesn't even know it's happening. What a waste! I'm sure you'll be happy to see the true nature within yourself and those around you. A man like that should be locked away in the secret compartment of the palace. They are the artifacts that will soothe the weary king's heart.

...... I think I'm talking about an elf.

"...... I thought we were talking about elves too?

You don't want to be rude to me because I'm about to ask you for a job, okay?

I won't. Not unless he wants to.

Reggie blurted out and went back into his magic sword.

...... I'm sure he's thinking of something weird, this guy.

As we talked and walked, we were back on the main street of the town before we knew it.

The Adventurer's Guild was ...... properly signposted.

A sword and a staff intersected with a sword and a staff, with a sea dragon clinging to the mark.

That seems to be the emblem of the Adventurer's Guild in this town.

The elves I met at the hot springs were ...... called Rafilia.

I hope he's not here. If she's not, I'll talk to Iris.

She used to work for Iris. She might know something.

"Why do you have to be so pissed off?

I didn't have to look for it.

The moment I opened the door of the Adventurer's Guild, her - Rafilia's voice jumped into my ears.

I look around the guild. The construction is the same as Metekal's. The only difference is that the reception desk is on the first floor. There are chairs and tables around it. There's a quest board by the wall. There is a bar counter in the back. There are adventurer-like people drinking alcohol and tea.

An elf girl sat at a table near the entrance.

Her hair is pink, pulled to one side. Slightly droopy eyes, annoying as if she's about to cry. Her arms and legs stretching out from her short cloth clothes are all white everywhere, and her body is thin, but her breasts are the only thing so big that it looks like they'll be on the table. She's clinging to the table, looking around like she's looking for help.

Several men are standing around her. I can't see their faces. They're all wearing silver masks.

They're talking to each other. I can hear their voices. It's, uh.

'Your motivation for applying is naive. Do you expect to get quests for this kind of motivation?　Have you ever thought about whether your skills could be put to use at our party in the first place?

What about ......?

I don't know how you felt about signing up for the quests we asked you to do with these skills. There are plenty of human resources out there. You didn't seriously think you were going to be hired?　What did you do in between signing up for this quest and the previous one?　Isn't the fact that you don't have enough money to cover your living expenses a sign that you're not in control of yourself?

Jikko-kanjian?　I mean, what can you do?　Everyone else took away the rewards!

'Hmm. Not only is he incapable of self-discipline, but he's also incapable of crisis management.

What's that?

'To begin with, you always work with the worst-case scenario in mind when you do your job. Did your party take away your reward?　Wouldn't it be bad to trust someone like that?　You can't even manage the money after it's been distributed - huh, it's not even distributed?　A representative of the delegation took it and then just walked away?　Ha, do you think you can solve the problem by shelving your mistakes and frying us?

Men in silver masks surrounded the elven girl.

'So I didn't say that!　What the hell!

'What the hell, you applied for the quest we asked you to do, didn't you?

'That doesn't mean you have to say that much!　Oh, I just wanted to earn money to go back home!

'Don't go off topic. This is your humanity in question. Do you let us take up your time and then complain when it's not convenient for you?　How did your parents raise you?　What does your family do for a living?　How much money?　You didn't sign up for the quest out of naivety, did you?

No, I don't!　I'll find another job!

'So, this one has a problem with your humanity. Are you not listening to me?　Isn't that why the party got away with it?　I won't let you go where you're going. I'm not going to let you get away with it, Rafilia-Grace, but it may affect your future quest orders. I'm aware of your personal information...

No more eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ────!

The pink-haired elf girl was besieged by masked men. She couldn't run away from them as they blocked her back and left and right while she was sitting on a chair. The guys inside the Adventurer's Guild - they don't respond. Nor the ones behind the guild's counter. Pretending not to see them?　Why?

I mean, this is not...

...... It's a pressure interview, man.

Why are you doing this in another world?

"You know what, Rita?

Hey, Nagi.

'Is there a party in this world where you can attack with words until your heart breaks?

I've never heard of it.

Normally, the guild would stop them.

The guild receptionist just doesn't know what to do with his time.

Either you can't handle it or you don't know what it means.

It's going to suck either way.

I've been trapped that way before.

At a part-time job interview.

I'm so insistent that you have to be clear about whether you want to hire or drop me: .......

So, I get it. That's the way of the world I was in.

"Are you a ...... visitor or just a black party in another world ......

I don't care. We need help from the elves.

Since we don't know anyone else, the quickest way to make a deal is with that girl, Rafilia.

'Lord, ...... help the girl. If you don't, those masked men will take her away from you.

Behind my back, Reggie murmured in his voice only.

'I know. I've thought of a plan.'

"Don't you dare miss it. ...... That's the man I was referring to.

...... gems?

'I told you.　Some people want to draw out their deepest nature. That's exactly what he is. You can't let him get away with this!　There may be a hint in that girl that the Lord is looking for - a skill that allows you to live without working!

"...what?

"I have seen many a princess, princess and pretty girl at the side of the king, and I know what it's like. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not. You'll be able to get a better idea of what to expect. And yet they are beautiful, as if the gods created them on a whim. You could call her the "beauty of the country". A man like that always has a mysterious skill that even he doesn't know about!

Just save it!　'Trust my eyes, which live for nearly 100 years, once in a while, Lord!

Reggie declared once and for all.

I'm going to help without being told.

I didn't expect to come to another world and come across an oppressive interview - just looking at it makes me want to vomit.

It's not a bad idea to be able to have a good time. You can't see their expressions.

The same thing happened in the original world. I was at a job interview and they were facing the sunset window and I was backlit and couldn't see their faces. They asked high pressure questions repeatedly without being able to read the expressions on the other side.

It's a huge advantage in negotiations that you can't read their expressions.

If you're at .......

I stepped outside. I eyeballed the stalls on the street. What I want... is there.

I get my money's worth and I walk back into the guild.

"Reggie, let's check it out. Can you take on the appearance of a normal human being, like you did in the dungeon?

"For a short time. But you can't be away from your sword for long. Nor will you be able to fight.

If you can move, that's fine.

I told Reggie the plan.

"Rita, you wait outside. I'll give you the signal when it's time to fight. Then we'll assist you.

Yes, sir. Have a good day.

And are those guys using their spatial domination skills now?

"...... wait a minute. Yeah. It's OK. We don't have anything like that.

Thanks, Rita.

I patted Rita's head.

Rita's skill, Warding Breaker, doesn't just allow you to break your opponent's control of space. If the opponent was using a skill that affects space, you can see it with your eyes. If you can't see it, Rita, then all you're doing now is a pressure interview.

Well, then I can destroy it.

After all, I'm a pro at that kind of thing (the one who gets it).

You're wearing it, just in case. Cover your ears and your tail, too.

I handed Rita and Reggie the festive gear I bought from the stall. I wear the same thing on my face.

Since I don't know who they are, I don't want them to know who I am.

With a nod to them, I stepped into the Adventurer's Guild.

Everyone was distracted by Rafilia and the masked men, not paying attention to me.

No one is surprised when they look at me. Maybe it's because it's the festive season and the guys surrounding Rafilia are wearing silver masks in the first place.

But, you'd be surprised how well they fit in with your face. It seems to be a limited edition item only for now.

I'm not going to take the quest.　I'm not going to take the quest, sorry!　I'm sorry for talking to you!

In the Adventurer's Guild, Raphilia was pissed.

She's banging the table with a bang and is puffed up with tears in her eyes.

"It was a mistake to aspire to be an adventurer ...... I shouldn't have wanted to see more of the legend ......

I think there's been a misunderstanding. It sounds as if we're asking a lot of you. It would be bad for our reputation if we don't clear up this misunderstanding.

I'm not saying anything!　I'm not going to be an adventurer anymore!

'Whoa, you won't get away with it, Mr. Rafilia. We're talking to you peacefully here. If you kick the chair and run away, it will hurt your career. You may not be able to get a job from the Adventurer's Guild in the future. If that happens, what will you do with your life?

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!

'Why do you look so blurry?　You haven't heard our story?

............ I am, I am

'I'll have to think about the rewards for such a rude person. So, would you be willing to accept a fifth of the reward posted on the quest board?　We'll provide accommodation for you in the meantime. It's not a problem. It's not a problem, since we're staying at the inn and it would be more comfortable and more convenient for us to stay there. Oh, you're not going to take the job?　Did you say that?　No one has heard of it.　I think you're mistaken.　You're starting to look like a dead fish. It's a good trend. Now, let's change the location and slowly make a 'contract'...

I'll just keep repeating the question endlessly until I can't answer it anymore.

I said.

"When people contradict you, you deny their humanity.

When I told them again, the masked men looked at me.

'I will not allow you to leave the place. The goal is to get you to sign a contract on terms that are convenient for you. It's like a vice (black) business. Is that the way you ask for quests in the Adventurer's Guild in Ilgafa?

goblin

I lightly hit the wall with "Building Strike Lv 1" (disabling the destruction attribute).

The building of the Adventurer's Guild shook.

Dust falls from the ceiling.

All the people inside the guild turned to me.

''Sorry to interrupt your negotiations. It was so badly done that we had to interfere.''

What are you doing?

One of the masked men shouts out.

''Let's just say 'respectful of the sea dragon priestess'.

I - stroked the 'Sea Dragon Kerkator's Mask' that covered my face.

It's perfect for hiding your face. I'll ask for Iris' permission later. I'm not going to be able to get any more information about the "shoddy goods" as "the right to use the sea dragon mask to protect your personal information (privacy).

Then I turn to the masked men.

I'm the one who wants to hire Rafilia-Grace to do a job for me. Unlike you guys, rightfully so (・・・・).

After saying it as graciously as I could, I looked around the guild.

All the people in the guild are looking at me.

Okay, no one has noticed Reggie.

Reggie, in human form, is hiding under a table and heading to Raphilia's place.

Leggy pats Raphilia's leg. Rafilia, who was stunned, freaks out. Meanwhile, Leggy hands her a small piece of paper from underneath her feet. He points to me.

I've told Reggie what to write on it.

'We met at the spa. I want to eliminate the masked men and offer you a job. If you believe me, you can align with me.

My face is hidden behind a mask, so Raphilia can't see it. So furthermore, Reggie blurts out a word.

Rafilia's face turns bright red.

Leggy whispered the top secret information.

This was a gamble. That I was an acquaintance of Iris and had met Rafilia. In order for them to understand that it was a person who had inadvertently nearly mixed up in a hot spring facility in the spa town of Rihjelda...

I had to tell her that I knew that she had three moles lined up to the right of her navel.

"............ haha. Oh, you know, the one from that time: ......

Raphilia and my eyes met.

Rafilia nodded, koku koku. She doesn't look angry. On the contrary, she has a cheery face. At least she doesn't seem to hate me.

Reggie gulps and raises a finger at me. Then he crawls under the table to the corner of the room. We join the people who are distantly watching us with a casual look on their faces.

'Again, please, Ms. Raphilia-Grace.

I bowed to Raphilia.

Now, here's the deal.

'I need your help. Can you help me with my work?

Uh-huh.

'What are you doing?　You have got to be kidding me, what's with that mask!

The masked man interrupted Raphilia's words and said, "It's the mask of the sea dragon Kerkator, what is it?

''It's the mask of the sea dragon Kerkator, what is it?

I replied, still wearing my festival mask.

If these guys were visitors, they could possibly know my face. I prefer to keep my identity as secret as possible. Besides, they wear masks too. It's not fair that we're the only ones who have to reveal our real faces.

"Do you really think you're the hero of the Sea Dragon? There's no need to talk to a suspicious person who wears a mask, Rafilia-Grace!

"What?

Me and Raphilia pointed at the masked men at the same time.

Behind the silver mask, the men widened their eyes. Or rather, they didn't expect to be told.

''Wow, we're the 'Divine Order of Life'. We're not like you.

A revolutionary group?

I look at Raphilia. She shakes her head. She doesn't seem to know either.

''You don't know? This is the party that currently has the highest questing rate here in Ilgafa. This silver mask is the proof that they are a member of the Divine Order of Life. It's not like a mere festival mask.''

Yeah. But I don't know you.

I looked at Rafilia.

'And ...... in case you're wondering, me and Mr. Rafilia know each other. It's up to you, Rafilia, to decide if you're willing to negotiate in this situation.

Now we just need to see if Raphilia will believe us.

It wasn't a ...... very good encounter at the spa.

"And I know. I'm ...... an unforgettable person to me.

Is it safe to negotiate as is?

Not a bit of it. ............ haha

He's breathing feverishly.

Well, if he's under that much pressure for an interview, he'll have a fever.

Didn't Rafilia say she needed money to go home? Then how about this deal...

'The job I'd like to ask Rafilia-san to do is 'Elder Slime Prevention'. The time commitment is about two hours at most. It won't be a battle. As long as you can provide me with materials to give to the slime for research, that's all I need. The reward is 120 arsha.

If you are willing to agree to these conditions, please lend us your power. Raphilia-Grace.
