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

That's why we started to prepare for the investigation of the Academy of Magical Pursuit.

The objective is to find the dragon's magic power, just like the one used in the Demon King's Orb.

But that town is very cautious.

In order to approach it, it would be better to change into a merchant rather than an adventurer.

That's why I decided to consult with Iris.

The Academy is a secretive city, but merchants should still be coming and going.

I thought that the trading city of Ilgafa might have some information.

We said goodbye to the Lady and went to the sanctuary.

From the sanctuary, we transferred to the port city of Ilgafa. We meet up with Aine and her friends.

Afterwards, we decided to take a short break and talk to Iris at the dinner table.

''I'm sorry, brother. Ilgafa and the 'Citadel of Magic Quest (Academy)' have no dealings at the moment. ......

Dinner time.

Iris came back from the lord's house and said on my lap (knee).

The reason why it's on my lap is because it's more motivating ...... apparently.

I mean, when Iris came back, Cecil was on my lap when she came back.

I think he wanted to ride it when he saw it.

''It can't be helped. It's a long way from here to the 'Citadel of Magical Quest (Academy)'.

''But I think Mr. 'Merchant's Guild' from 'The Retreating Ground Michelin' might have a deal with them.

'Well, I guess I'd better ask the merchants at the recreational area.

Me and Iris looked at each other.

Naturally, we came up with the same person.

Like... the merchant, Mr. Dolgor?

I'm sure Mr. Dolgor will have some information for you.

Me and Iris nodded at each other.

Mr. Dolgor, a merchant, lives in the 'Recreational Area Michelinella'.

He's a burly man, and used to be an adventurer in the past. At that time, he was saved by Kerkator, a sea dragon, and now he is a respectable sea dragon enthusiast. I have visited his home once, and his room was full of sea dragon masks.

I also respect Iris, the Sea Dragon Priestess, and she's been very kind to us. He is a good person.

I'm sure he knows how to get to the Academy of Magical Research.

''Alright, I'll transfer back tomorrow and we'll talk. I'll transfer back tomorrow and go talk to him.

'Iris should write a letter.

The reason why I want to go to the 'Academy of Magic Quest' is to expand the sales channel of the port city of Ilgafa, right?　I'd like to sell products to the Academy that are similar to what the resort sells. It takes a lot of brain power to research magic, so I'd like to make something sweet...

It's great. Big brother.

Iris gulped and gave a thumbs up.

'Or rather, let's actually do some business. Hopefully, we'll be able to get some new sales channels in place.

Indeed.

This would allow this town to develop further.

If we can find the Dragon's Magic and revitalize the economy of the port city of Ilgafa, we can kill two birds with one stone.

If we can make life easier for the townspeople, they won't notice that we're not working.

Well, then, we had better think about thanking Mr. Dolgor.

'Yes. As for what that man would enjoy: ......

If you're looking for a gift for a sea dragon enthusiast, I can think of a few at .......

For example...

'Maybe leak the design of the 'Sea Dragon Festival' masks you plan to use next year?

You must be so excited.

"Maybe I can make you a custom-made 'sea dragon shaped candy' that won't be available until next year's 'Sea Dragon Festival'.

I think you'll faint from the emotion.

''Maybe you could give them the 'Scales of the Sea Dragon Kerkator' floating on the surface of the 'Sea Dragon Sanctuary'?

The walls of the Sea Dragon Sanctuary are covered with the scales of the Sea Dragon Kerkator.

The scales of the sea dragon himself, who comes to the sanctuary every year for each ceremony, sometimes come off and stick to the wall.

So the scales of the sea dragon are floating on the surface of the water...

...... No, as expected, would you be pissed off at Kairyu-san?

Or rather, I think it's dangerous because Lord Dolgor is going to collapse from the emotion.

Iris rolls her eyes.

'It's all right. I'm sure you'll be pleased. Let's do it!'

That's why Kairyu-san was so angry.

Iris will negotiate. Take Lord White with you.

''Isn't it awful to negotiate in a situation where Kai Ryu-san can never say no!

For now, we decided to think about thanking the merchant, Dolgor, later.

The next day, we moved again to the Mishlila Recreation Area.

As the first step in negotiations, Aine and I decided to visit Dolgor's house as emissaries.

Then we give him the letter from Iris...

'I see. Very well.

Sitting on the couch, shaking his large body, Dolgor said.

''I didn't know you were interested in the 'Academy', Sea Dragon Priestess. ...... I see. It's because that town is researching various magic items. I'm sure he thinks it will develop in the future. As expected of the Priestess of the Sea Dragon. He has a vision for the future.

As usual, the reception room is a pile of "Kerkator" goods.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

I'm sure that if I gave her a copy of the "Scales of the Sea Dragon", she would fall over ...... as I suspected. It's dangerous.

''But why is this the time of year?''

The merchant, Dolgor-san, looked at me with a strange look.

I'm a 'messenger from Iris', so I bowed lightly and then

Recently, in the port city of Ilgapha, strange incidents such as the 'Maohu deficiency disease' have been occurring. The Academy is a city where wizards and alchemists gather. You can find out how to deal with the suspicious incidents and even get a hint about them at ...... that's what Iris-Hapheumea thinks.

I can understand that. You are indeed the "Priestess of the Sea Dragon", aren't you?

Mr. Dolgor nodded admiringly.

By the way, Iris and I thought about this story yesterday.

Night. Lying in bed.

It can't be helped, can it?

Iris and I, and Shiro in Little Tenryu Mode, couldn't sleep once we started thinking about it.

"Well, if that's the case, I'd love to help you.

"'Thank you, sir. Mr. Dolgor.

Me and Aine both bowed our heads at the same time.

But Mr. Dolgore was so apologetic.

But I don't have any dealings with the Academy directly. So any dealings with that town will be done through the 'Merchant's Guild' at the resort.

The Merchant's Guild?

''Yes. And the Merchant's Guild here at the resort is authoritarian, and if you do business with the Academy, you are required to take a respectable bodyguard with you. Otherwise, they will not allow us to do business with them.

...... for a fine escort.

''Unless you're a merchant with a strong and respectable escort, you're not qualified to go to a noble town like The Academy,'' he said. What can I say, there is such a self-regulation: ......

Self-regulation.

It happens occasionally. It's just that kind of thing.

The 'Academy of Magical Quest' is a town where wizards and alchemists gather.

Naturally, there must be high-level wizards and alchemists.

If they are such people, then they are in good company with the nobility and rich people...

So it seems that the 'Merchant's Guild' of the recreational area thinks that it's not suitable unless you're a merchant with a respectable escort.

It's a troublesome local rule, but it can't be helped.

Of course it is possible to do business without going through the 'Merchant's Guild'.

Mr. Dolgor looked difficult.

''But that would incur the wrath of the guild. Besides, I don't have any acquaintances in the 'Citadel of Magical Quest (Academy)'. It would be difficult to do business with them.

I understand.

Yeah. I thought that was a possibility.

I didn't think that I and Iris would be able to enter the "Citadel of Magical Quest (Academy)" right away by passing through Dolgor-san, so I didn't think that I would have to pass through the "Merchant's Guild" at the resort.

We also thought that we might have to pass through the Merchant's Guild at the recreation area.

The 'Priestess of the Sea Dragon' Irise-sama would like to be introduced to the Merchant's Guild. What kind of fine bodyguard does the Merchant's Guild require?

I asked.

'For example, if you are a soldier in the 'port city of Irgafa', would you be competent?

The Merchant's Guild is designed to be an adventurer's guard. They don't want to allow too many soldiers from other towns into the 'Academy of Magical Explorations'. ......

So you think adventurers like us can handle it?

'Yes. If you meet certain conditions.

Mr. Dolgor nodded with a serious look on his face.

'That's a seriously tough requirement, even for an adventurer: ......

This guy is also a former adventurer.

That must be a really difficult requirement to have such a difficult face.

''First of all, you must have a strong weapon. A magic sword would be perfect.''

"Hmm. Then I guess that's no problem. It's a magic sword!

Reggie, who was in a demon sword state at my back, said.

''Oh, hey.

'A sword that only speaks!　'It's a magic sword, no doubt about it!'

There's a thing called ...... timing. Leggy.

Mr. Dolgor, you're surprised.

Well, I can trust this guy, so he won't spread any more information than necessary.

''So, I have a talking magic sword. It's cute.

"Praised by the Lord!　Ahem!

Leggy shuddered at my back.

'Well, I see. I see you have a magic sword. But there is a more difficult condition. The adventurers who go to the 'Academy of Magical Research' need to have a messenger with them. The one who can control the magic power and has a powerful messenger is the one who proves to be a powerful adventurer. ......

"Yes, sir. I thought you'd be an errand boy.

A White in a 'Little Dragon Golem' state flew out of the luggage.

He's spreading his wings and flying around in circles near the ceiling of the room.

White was with me until morning, you know. I just followed him.

That's another thing. The Merchant's Guild needs the achievement of clearing the quests it has requested. Of course, it's okay if you take the quest from now on: ......

''Okay. Then I'll stop by the 'Adventurer's Guild' on my way home.

"...... is no longer a problem at all. ......

Dolgor-san rolls his eyes.

''If you already have a magic sword and a messenger, all you need to do is complete the quest and you'll be fine. I'll apply to the Merchant's Guild since Iris-sama wants to do business with the 'Academy of Magical Quest'.

"It's a pleasure to meet you. Mr. Dolgor.

The Merchant's Guild will not reject the application for the port city of Ilgafa. In the future, ...... I would like to join the business in that town as well.

''Yes. I'll let the 'Sea Dragon Priestess' know.

Thank you!

It's nice to meet you too.

Mr. Dolgor and I shook hands.

"But you are in for a surprise!

Mr. Dolgor was impressed.

"You have a magic sword and a talking messenger, you are indeed the 'Sea Dragon Priestess''s favorite adventurer!　You've probably completed more quests than your average adventurer so far: ......

...... soudesne.

"?　Why do you look at me like I'm looking into the distance?

Come to think of it, I almost never received any quests from the Adventurer's Guild.

I've only received a few quests from the guild, including the bat extermination in "Commercial City Metekal".

The people of the Mummy Flying Dragon Raizika, the beastman village, and the mermaids - I've received quite a few requests that didn't go through the Adventurer's Guild, though. I do quests that involve dragons and the secrets of this world, but I don't do much work for the town's "Adventurer's Guild" .......

It's a good time to make some achievements for the 'Adventurer's Guild' as well.

''Then I'll look for quests in the 'Adventurer's Guild'.

Hmm. I'm sure you'll be fine, Nagi, if you're good enough.

And so we left Mr. Dolgor's mansion.

After leaving the mansion, Aine and I start walking side by side.

''Aine. Do requests from the 'Commercial Guild' come to the 'Adventurer's Guild' quite often?

Sometimes it happens. Sometimes it's just the guilds being rude to each other.

I see. ...... Well, I hope it's not a difficult quest.

I'll be fine. Aine will be fine.

Aine clenched her fists.

'Mm. Leave it to me.

"To do.

The Magic Sword Leggy is on my back and White is on my shoulder.

It's a way to build a track record for going to the 'Citadel of Magical Quest (Academy)'. It's worth a try.

That's why we headed to the Adventurer's Guild for our retreat.

It's been a long time since we've been to the Adventurer's Guild.

We were looking for a request for the 'Commercial Guild' on the quest board.

''It's nice to do some normal work once in a while.

Yeah. It'll be fun.

"I guess not.

Me, Aine and Reggie are looking up at the quest board.

By the way, White is resting in his luggage.

''There it is. It looks like this is the only request for the 'Commercial Guild'.

And then Aine pointed to this...

''Chimera Extermination.'' The clients are the 'Merchants Guild' and the 'Innkeepers Guild' of the ...... 'Recreational Area Michelia'?

It's like a place in the woods in the west. There is a stray chimera that lives there and sometimes appears on the roads, and they want you to exterminate it.

'Surely this will be an achievement for the guild?

...... The problem is safety.

Aine clammed up.

It's an achievement. It doesn't take long.

But it seems that it's not very safe.

The enemy is a chimera──that is, an artificially created synthetic-type demon.

The request form on the quest board says it's a synthetic creature (chimera) from 'Goat, Lion and Cow'.

The problem is that we don't know how strong it is, but...

Don't worry. If I have to, I'll have Cecil's magic burn the whole forest to the ground.

"That's my lord!

You can't!　Nah-kun and Leggy-chan, calm down!

"'Eh,'

If we burn down the entire forest, we'll have to report it to the Adventurer's Guild!

That's right.

I've been doing a lot of dark moves lately to avoid being seen, so I forgot about it.

Since you're reporting to the Adventurer's Guild, you have to do your job like a normal adventurer. ......

''All right. I'll figure out a good way to do it.

...... Nah, that's what you say, so I believe you.

Let's ask for more information about the Chimera before we accept the quest. Then we'll decide whether or not to accept the quest. If I don't think it's possible, I'll stop.

I think it's a good idea.

Well, I'll just go to the receptionist and ask him...

With that in mind, I looked at the guild's reception desk - it was insanely crowded.

To be precise, a group of several people surrounded the receptionist and were shouting.

''We!　A new quest has been ordered for the evolution of the world: 」」」」

No. You see, ...... you don't have to announce your quest orders out loud...

""This may be a small step. But from this day forward, the world will certainly change!

You're all freaking out. Be quiet. Hey, hey?

""For now, people won't even notice the changes we're bringing. But they will know. This was just the beginning!

'You guys have had a lot of quests, haven't you?　One step, nothing, you're already ten steps ahead of me!

""Come on. Come on, my friends!

Holding up the order form, they turned their backs to the receptionist.

'If a powerful demon appears, call us.

We are the Neos Family, a new generation of adventurers.

I'm from a world other than this one. I'm the hero's favorite disciple.

The adventurers left the guild after uttering a line that sounded like that.

It's cool.

It's cool, but...

'From a World Not Here, the Brave and Beloved Disciple of the Brave' ......?

Don't tell me you're a 'visitor'?

Is he "The Brave Man's Favorite Disciple" - or is he "The Visitor's Favorite Disciple"?

Maybe a visitor is teaching an adventurer somewhere: ......?

How is that possible: ......?

Most of the visitors I've met so far were hired by the nobles to become heroes.

They didn't seem to be good at teaching people. ......

''No. Is it dangerous to judge them so quickly?''

It's also possible that The Brave Apprentice is just a bluff.

We just came to the Adventurer's Guild and met some strange adventurers.

That's all we have for now.

I'm just curious about .......

''Let's gather some information about the current people in the guild for now. Aine.

.......

Aine?

What?　Hey, Hey-kun.

When I called out to her, with a jolt, Aine jumped up.

Before I knew it, Aine had turned her back around and was staring into her luggage.

'What's wrong Aine?'

'Nah, it's nothing. I heard the words 'brave beloved disciple of the brave', so Aine was curious about it, too: ...... so.

From inside the luggage, White in Little Tenryu mode is peeking out.

I see, so Aine was talking to Shiro.

''I was curious about 'the hero's favorite disciple' and that's why you were talking to White?

'Yes. I wondered to White if those people were really related to the brave people. I'm not sure if they are strong. I was asking her if she could find out how strong their magic is or something like that .......

Yeah. Thanks, Aine.

'Uh-uh!　Oh, don't thank me. I've found out something else.

The other thing?　Does the evolved White still have some special ability?

'You know what? That's ......'

White looked out of his luggage, looked at Aine for some reason, then

"...the ability to measure strength..." (・・・・・)

Okay.

"I'm sorry. Dad.

That's fine. Okay, let's go to the guild and gather information.

Yes, yes, yes.

"Yes, sir. Hey, Dad.

"Hmm. Well, then, I'll be quietly listening in.

Then we gathered information about a chimera that had appeared near the resort.

Just to be sure, he had also heard rumors about the 'Neos Family' who claimed to be the 'Hero's Beloved Disciple'.

And so, that night.

I'm not sure what to say. I'm in trouble.

What's going on? Mr. Aine.

What's the matter with you, seriously?

I need to talk to you about something important: ...... where are Iris and Raphilia and Mr. Cutlass?

Lady Iris and Mr. Rafilia have gone to the House of Lords.

'Cutlass is talking to Nagi. I'll go get him.

Wait, ...... you don't have to invite me over if I'm with you.

'Yes. I can't let you interfere with your master.

Not so: ......

Aine keeps her voice down.

She must have realized that it's not just a matter of time.

Cecil and Rita also listen to Aine's words with a serious look on their faces.

''Actually, today I found out about Shiro-chan's new ability.

Is this Mr. White's skill?

"You mean you're going to have Nagi 'rebuild' you?

'It's not. I don't think it can be 'reconstructed' because it's like the super-sense of a celestial dragon. Good ...... listen carefully.

Aine sighs and takes a deep breath.

Cecil and Rita are also listening to the story under their breath.

Then Aine says a few words.

"It is said that Shiro-chan can see the flow of life because he is a celestial dragon.

The flow of life, sir.

Life force and all that?

It's true. I mean, White said...

Aine pauses for a breath and then tells her.

'It means that if Aine and her friends have children, they'll be ready to jump right in!

Ha!

Cecil and Rita shouted.

Aine put a finger to her lips and murmured, "Shh,

She nodded towards Cecil and Rita, who pressed their mouths together.

That's the way it is (・・・・・・).

Yeah, and what about now?

What did you say, White?

...... not yet,

But we'll know soon enough when we have children, won't we?

Cecil gulped and clenched his fists.

I understand. I will do my best to give the future of the demon race, no, I will do my best to give a new family to Nagi-sama.

'Yeah, right. This ...... is a test of my resolve, isn't it? The Nagi and I are going to get to the point where I'm going to have to tell people about the... you know...

Cecil, calm down!　I'm all red in the face. Rita, you can't mess around with the table!　If a whisper gets stuck in Nai-kun's hand, we're in trouble!

Aine, you're the one who's so calm.

'Yes. As for the child with Nagi-sama, Aine must have been most concerned about it: ......

Because Aine sees this as an opportunity.

Aine mumbled with a placating smile.

'If you ask White, you'll know right away that you're having a child, right?　Then I can prepare myself and have what I need. I think it's great that Shiro-chan is developing those skills.

Mr. Aine: ......

'Aine, awesome ......'

And when you find out that someone at the party is having a baby, you can easily ask your master for a little brother or sister.

...?

When it comes to parenting, Aine is very confident. One and two are the same. No. On the contrary, it's nice to have a lot of noise. Children have more time to play with their brothers and sisters. Mothers can talk to their mothers about their problems, and it's okay if one of them isn't producing enough milk. Besides, everyone else will be more prepared for the future.

And so Aine's passionate talk continued for a while...

So, I think this is a good chance for you to get to know White and....　Mr. Cecil. Miss Rita?

"...... (pop).

Cecil and Rita sit down with a bright red face, as if the heat has been applied to them.

Aine realizes that she's gotten carried away and talked too much, so she holds her mouth down.

But Cecil and Rita shake their heads and stand up.

They both hold Aine's hand at the same time, with their faces and skin up in the air.

''Wow, I understand. What you want to say, Aine, is, wow, I get it, from .......

I'll try. I'll try my best. I'll try my best.

Oh, yeah. We can do it. Cecil, Rita.

Gasp.

Holding hands and nodding to each other, Cecil, Rita and Aine.

Furthermore, the three of them are whispering and discussing their plans for the future.

There are many opportunities.

From now on, the party will go to defeat the Chimera.

After that, we'll travel to the Academy for the Quest for Magic. If we are lucky enough to find the "Magic Power of the Previous Heavenly Dragon", Master (Nagi) will be pleased. That's where I propose a celebration party. When the festivities have turned into a celebration and you've loosened your mind - with everyone. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. If that's the case, let's have an advance celebration before we leave. But that might make Master (Nagi) feel suspicious, anyway, so let's do it naturally without Master noticing .............

.............

.......

Thus, Cecil, Rita, and Aine's consultations lasted until late at night──.

Next morning.

'Oh, oh, hi, hi. Nagihyama.

It's a good morning. Nagy.

............ (soooo) half-closed eyes and cooking.

What the hell happened to Cecil, Rita and Aine?

The next morning, they are going to surprise their master (Nagi).
