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

Then the mermaids, Sonia and Lumiere, explained the three treasures.

Pendant of the robe

It can be 'made to look' as if the wearer is wearing the clothing of their choice.

When the wearer wears this pendant, it appears to those around him or her as if the wearer is wearing the clothing he or she imagined. (A special field is formed, which can be touched. The field also has cloth-level protection.)

However, you cannot wear any clothing, including your underwear, while the pendant is forming your clothing.

(Because the field formed by the pendant interferes with the actual clothing.

Also, the wearer himself cannot see the clothes the pendant creates.

Legend has it that a "mermaid who fell in love with a human prince" once used it to pretend to be human.

Bracelet of Food

You can determine if the target can be eaten or not.

When the bracelet is activated, the target's fish, plant, animal, and demon food availability, toxicity, and special effects are displayed.

It cannot target humans or sub-humans.

Mainly used by mermaids when they find their first seaweed or fish.

Ring of Life

You can see the surrounding water temperature and water current (temperature and air currents) visually.

High-temperature areas appear to be reddish and low-temperature areas appear to be blue.

The direction of movement of the water current is indicated by arrows.

The temperature of the water (temperature) around the wearer can be changed to the appropriate temperature. The maximum temperature is about the temperature of a hot bath. It's also a convenient tool that allows you to take a bath without having to leave your home.

Don't get lost. ...... All of them are very useful.

I'm not going to be able to buy any clothes with the "Clothing Pendant". I'm sure you'll be able to disguise yourself in your underwear at home, but only when you go out with the "clothing pendant" to disguise your clothes. The cost of clothing can be reduced to the limit.

With the Ring of the Dwelling, you can live without heating in the winter.

We wouldn't need firewood to heat our bathrooms. I don't think it can be used in battle, but it's more than enough for life.

The Food Armband is also amazing. With this, you won't starve.

For example, even if you were pursued by the aristocrats of this country and had to live a life on the run, you would be able to repeatedly replenish your supply of food on the spot and escape to whatever extent you wanted. It's the ultimate survival item.

'By the way, where did you get this item?

It was a long time ago... and they say that our ancestors found it in a treasure chest in the ocean.

I knew it was an ancient item.

Maybe it was made by 'Earth Dragon Earthgulls'.

If that's the case, then similar items might be out there somewhere. For example - 'Ancient Elf City', for example.

The ancient elves and demons were skilled enough to create the system of 'Valley of the Mist'. It wouldn't be surprising if they were making items to help people's lives.

Let's go look for them after the rest of the day.

''So, which item would you like to make!

"Give me the 'food bracelet,'

I said.

I'd like to have all three. But it's also a mermaid's treasure.

"Oh, well, that's unexpected. Nagi-kun.

The bird-shaped golem (with Delilira-san) climbed onto my shoulder.

"Since you're the one, I thought I'd use the 'Ring of Dwelling' to make your room the right temperature and sleep soundly until noon...

I've been thinking about that, too.

Well, I didn't think you'd choose the 'robe pendant'.

Delilira cleared her throat and laughed.

That's right. It's too maniacal to pretend to be completely naked and clothed. If the effect wears off while you're using it, you can't just walk around carelessly. I'd rather respect the legendary Mermaid Princess who used it to visit her prince.

''The reason I chose the 'food bracelet' is simple. The other items are useless unless the wearer is by your side.

Oh, I see. I see.

As I said it, the golem with the saintly woman nodded in agreement.

''The other two items require the person wearing it to be near you. But the 'Food Armband' is different.

Yes. You can share your food information with others.

We have "consciousness sharing and modification".

For example, if I find a mushroom that I think is edible, I can send them information with a picture of the mushroom. Even though they are far away, everyone can use that information. It increases the chances of survival.

If you repeat this process, one day you will be able to create the "Database of Edible Plants, Animals and Demons".

When the time comes, you may be able to earn money with this information.

And then there's also the fact that you can't do anything unless you eat for now. You can't move if you're not hungry. I chose what I thought would be most useful for survival.

Hmm. I think you're right. That's Nagi, the bastard master.

...... I'm pretty confused.

It's important to eat.

Yeah.

Well, Delilira-san is a ghost, so she's never been hungry!

With that, the golem with the saintly woman threw out her chest.

It was ruined.

'Thank you. Sonia, Lumia. Can I have the 'food bracelet' then?

Come in! I'd be delighted.

With their tiny hands, they picked up a bracelet that had been placed on the rocks.

The food chain is made of blue coral-like material with a pearl-like substance stuck in the middle. Sonia and Lumiere held out the bracelet to me. I took the bracelet and put it on my right arm.

It's also a sign that you're a friend of the mermaid, so if you're ever in trouble near the ocean, just call out to me!

"'Mermaids want to be of service to our benefactors!

Thanks. Maybe I could get you some help one day.

I stroked Sonia and Lumia's hair.

They both look ticklish. The other mermaids are dancing on the rocks. They swim toward us, back to us, and leave their catches behind. It's really free-for-all.

...... Hmm.

I'm glad you brought the fish. Let's use the food chain.

"Activate," is that correct?

I touched the bracelet and then looked at the fish on the rocky ground.

It looks like a flounder from the original world, with black horizontal stripes.

When you bring this into view...

The Calacto Hirahirauo

Predation: possible

Taste: delicious.

Special Effect: Every 10 fish you take will have a "Blood Clearing +1" effect.

The letters appeared on the fish.

How do you know the name of the fish? The Calacto Flathead is edible and delicious, and if you eat 10 fish, your blood level will increase by '+1'.

How much blood is left in the tank?

Come on. - Come on.

It's ......, right?

I guess I'd better look at it as a reference opinion.

'Speaking of which, I brought you a specialty item...'

Sonia and Lumia raised their hands.

When she looked, she saw that the mermaid adults were coming from behind her. They all have something in their arms. They walked up to us and left it on the rocks.

The adults seem to have finally remembered that they want you to eat the Horned Serpent in season!

...... There's a story about that.

The "Horned Serpent" is a specialty of the season and is very nutritious. Originally, I heard that mermaids and local fishermen traded for it, and the mermaids traded a lot of things.

I see, and now that the mermaids have returned to their homes, the Horned Serpent is available for purchase.

So, Aine. So, Aine, put it in your "sister's treasure chest" of storage skills.

Yes, sir.

That's right. But first, I'll have to have the Armband to evaluate...

Shuffling. I can't help it.

The moment I said that, the five Horned Serpents disappeared.

It's because Aine put them in her sister's treasure box. In an instant.

I could see a little bit of text. It's predatory. The taste is.... cheerful.

I'm sorry. Yes. I put it away just as planned.

...... Yeah.

"Wow, we mustn't let it go bad. Aine is responsible for making sure it lasts for as long as possible, unless it's for immediate consumption. Okay?

Yeah. Yeah.

When it comes to cooking, Aine is the expert. She'll take care of it.

Aine's got this whole 'food bracelet' thing going on.

I took off my bracelet and offered it to Aine.

"Normally, Aine can use it as she pleases. I'll only give it back to you when you're doing research for your 'workless life'. This bracelet is a great way to determine if the food is tasty or not. Aine will be able to use it to help you with your shopping, right?

"...... naa kun

Huh?

Aine looks surprised.

I'm not saying anything crazy, right?

'The mermaid's treasure you just received is for Aine ......?

'It's Aine who's taking care of the kitchen for me. You're supposed to make my job as easy as possible, right?

Nay-kun.

"And if I have it, they'll judge it by 'taste' and 'freshness' and automatically stock up on the cheapest ingredients, so it's going to be the same ingredients 365 days a year.

"Nourishment is depleted!　I understand. Aine will take care of the treasure!

Aine hurriedly received the hidden treasure from my hand.

I was mainly fed by instant and cup noodles (noodle) in my former world.

I have a feeling that I'm going to be more efficient, shopping with the 'food armoire'. It's not good if the menu becomes a pattern, so we should leave this to Aine.

''So, about that 'Horned Serpent' you mentioned earlier.

It's predatory, tastes great, and makes me feel better when I eat it!

Aine looked at me with a serious look on her face.

Her face was bright red. There was sweat on her forehead. I was breathing hard.

I thought if I pushed any further into it, I'd collapse.

'I'm going to cook you a nice meal later!　Properly, I'm going to prove that it's an energizing food. So!

Okay, all right. I'm looking forward to it.

It's rare for Aine to get this desperate, but she must have her own reasons for doing so. I said I'd leave the kitchen to you. I'll leave it to you.

Well then, ladies and gentlemen, please come visit us again!

"'Mermaids are welcome everywhere in the sea. ────

And then we said goodbye to the mermaids.

Well then, Delilira, you're going back to the labyrinth!

Koto, koto, koto, koto.

Come visit us again!　Within a month!　Even if it's just for a week or less!

Waving to the saints and the golems on the road...

In the evening, we returned to the villa in the "sanatorium mishurira".

That night.

We talked about our future plans over dinner.

Our next objective was to explore the "Ruins of Ancient Elves".

We can't waste the information given to us by the EarthGulls.

Above all, the remains of the ancient elves might have some valuable items left behind. If we had something like the Mermaid's 'Treasures of Food and Clothing', our lives would be much easier.

And when I heard of the 'Ruins of Ancient Elves', I remembered something.

In the Valley of Mist, where we explored before, there was a coffin containing Rafilia's sister, Gabriella Grace, along with Raizika the mummy flying dragon.

Gabriella Grace died after waking up much earlier than Rafilia, but there is a good chance that there were other replicas of the ancient elves as well. If we go to the 'Ruins of the Ancient Elves', we might be able to find some clues.

''It's called ......, what do you think, Rafilia?''

Sure, I'm curious. Moxie.

Rafilia nodded as she filled her mouth with boiled fish.

"If there are sisters like me, we'll have to find them.

Yeah. It'd be a shame if he was left unattended.

No, no, no, I just want to show Master that he's happy to be kept in a collar.

Don't say something so simple.

Besides, if we have many of my types, we can create a squadron of justice, don't you think it would be cool to have all five of us in the same outfit, the Grace Squadron?

'It's cool!　Master!

That's my girl, Iris. You know what you're doing!

I've asked Master for details about the 'Hi-ro-mono' of the original world. I'm fully determined to become a righteous ally of the Master in this world.

'Yeah. We'll talk about that at length after we find Raphilia's sisters.

With that, I stopped eating for a moment.

''It's a long way to the 'Ruins of the Ancient Elves'. Let's make a plan and get some rest before we go.

Everyone nods in unison at my words.

''Anyway, I'll go on the desert island trip as planned. But before I do, I want to talk to 'Kerkator the Sea Dragon' about 'Earth Dragon Earthgulls'. So ...... Feen.

"Yes, Mr. Yuji.

A translucent Fynn floats up behind Cutlass.

'I understand what you mean. The Transference Amulet can be activated at any time.''

Thanks. So, Iris, I'm sorry, but will you accompany me to the 'Sea Dragon Sanctuary'?

Yes, sir. Brother!

Iris hugged the golem 'Ritogon' on her lap next to Raphilia.

''Shiro-sama, join me and I'll show you how to terrify 'Kerkator the Sea Dragon'!

"Okay. I'll follow you. Okada!

...... Somehow, it seems like the power relationship between "Kerkator the Sea Dragon" and "Iris the Sea Dragon Priestess" has been reversed lately: .......

Well, it's a good thing.

It's a good idea to have a good time.　Since I have become the 'Dragon Protector', I would like to pay my respects to you, Sea Dragon.

Of course. So, it'll be me, Cutlass, and Iris who return to the port city of Ilgafa...

'Yes!　I'm also Iris's maid of honor, so I'll be following you!

So it's the Rafilia five.

'Yes!　Then we're getting ready to travel!

Cecil held up his hand.

'I'll make sure it's perfect so we can go out as soon as Nagi-sama returns!

...... No, you don't have to get that worked up about it.

I see. ...... So this is the quest that Aine, Cecil-chan and I were entrusted with by our master.

'That's right. I need to get into it.

Miss Rita. You forgot to call my name just now, didn't you?　You just forgot about it, didn't you?　I'm in the group, aren't I?

Everyone (including Letitia) is motivated.

'All right. Then I'll leave it all up to you guys. You're free to spend your budget as you see fit. And your cheat skills ...... well, I don't think you need them, but you're free to do what you want.

'Yes!　Nagi-sama! I got it. I'm going to leave it up to you. I'm going to be the one to join you. This time, I'm going with you.

That's why...

The next day, we divided the party into two groups and began our activities.

The resort and the group preparing for the trip.

Mmm-hmm. Mmm-hmm.

There was a humming sound in the living room of the villa.

A warm breeze came in through the open window.

It was morning. It was morning, and I had just finished my breakfast. Maybe it's because it's still early, but the sun is not that strong. The gentle breeze rustled the bags on the floor and Aine's chestnut-colored hair.

''Hmmmph. Hmmmmm.''

Aine chooses each package and packs it into a leather bag.

A cloth to wipe the body with. More underwear than usual. We also need leather bags for water bottles.

There should be a water source on the deserted island, but temporary preparations are necessary.

Rafilia's got a water purification system, so we'll just use it in a pinch. How many jowls do you think I should take with me: ....... You'll need a lot of water. And to drink after you've used your strength. And to cool your burning body.

'Mmm-hmm. Hmmm.

'Mr. Aine. You look happy.

Uh-huh. I don't know what you're talking about, Cecil. It's not true.

Aine stroked Cecil's silver hair, which was peering into her hand, with a gentle hand.

''Anyway, Cecil-chan. You are going to be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.　I bought it from Aine's 'Poketo Mane', was it the right size?

'I thought it was thin for a packing robe. That was a swimsuit. ......

It's uninhabited. It's not a problem.

Aine gulped and gave a thumbs up.

The thing to do is decided. Cecil and Rita - maybe Iris and Raphilia, and the full support of Cutlass.

The Horned Serpent has been bled out and is being prepped in the storeroom. It should be cured just in time for our master's return.

I heard that there are two cottages on the deserted island, so Leticia and I will stay in a separate place from everyone else. Leticia might say "I'm not part of the group," but - since Aine is with us, that's fine, right?　Of course, if Letitia wants to be a part of this group...

Mr. Aine?

I can't. I'm not allowed to go to your cottage right now. ...... Letitia, for God's sake. If you insist, Aine is going to join you. But, if anything happens, it's a force majeure. I want you to understand that: ...... Laetitia

'Mr. Aine, Mr. Aine!　What's wrong with you?!

What?

Aine comes to her senses when her knees are shaken.

I shouldn't have done that. I guess I was just thinking too far ahead.

The trip hasn't even started yet. The master has just transferred to the port city of Ilgafa at dawn. He should be at home resting by now. It will be a little while before we all go to the deserted island and become 'very good friends' with the master.

............ jeez.

What's going on?　Cecil-chan.

Mr. Aine, he's very enthusiastic.

It's natural. Preparing for the trip is one of the most important things I have to do for you, Master.

Is that all?

Putting her hands on Aine's knees, Cecil stared at her with her still, red eyes.

Aine couldn't help but avert her gaze, pressured by those eyes.

'...... Really, you know. I hope that Nay-kun will become 'very good friends' with everyone on this trip.

Are you 'very chummy'?

'Yes. Not just the heart or ...... soul or ...... soul, but the body and the body together, so much so that they meld together, so much so that the boundaries between each other disappear ...... A "chum

............ haha!

Blurting out, Cecil's face turns red.

He must have understood the meaning of the words. A gasping, waving your hands around, shaking your head (headgear) - and holding your chest - and

Then he stares at Aine's face again.

'Aine, were you thinking about that?'

Yeah. Cecil and Rita, I hope that everyone else will become 'best friends' with Nay-kun again.

Where's Aine?

Aine's my big sister. You can go to ...... while you're at it.

Is that so?

Yeah.

I thought that Aine, just like me, would want to be "very close" with Nagi.

............ Yeah.

The leather bag fell from Aine's hand.

She opened her mouth with a pop and looked at her little slave companion (Dorei Nakama).

Because when you talk about such things, Aine-san has a very happy face. Holding her chest, she really is thinking about the future with the person she loves, like a young girl.

Oh, jeez, jeez, jeez. I don't mean that.

...... Really?

It's a good thing that I'm not a fan of ...... for my own sake, but for everyone's sake. Aine and Naina-kun and her "very good friends" ...... together, like ...... Cecil and his friends ......... ...Aah, aah, aah, aah, aah.

Aine involuntarily held her face.

I can see her cheeks are loose. I can see that my face is getting hotter.

It's funny. Aine wants "that kind of thing" to milk everyone's babies.

The slave girls at the Nagi Party are adventurers. They don't know when to go on a quest.

They may have to go on an urgent quest without their babies. That's when they need a nanny. Aine, the party's big sister, is the right person for the job. That's why it should be for that purpose. It was supposed to be for that reason that Aine and her master did "such things", but...

I don't know why my heart is beating so hard.

Yes, that's right. Aine needs to talk to Letitia. I have to go out for a while!

With that, Aine ran out of the living room.

'You know what!　Letitia...

Yes, sir. I heard you. Aine.

Leticia smiled at Aine as she jumped into the room and smiled at her.

''You know, Aine. Even if you temporarily quit being a 'big sister' and become just a maiden in love, you won't lose anything, right?

Aah, aah, aah, aah, aah!

What came back from my best friend were merciless words without question.

Aine's legs begin to tremble as she feels somewhat besieged.

Strange.

The deserted island vacation is for Nah-kun and everyone else. And for that, I arranged for the Horned Serpent to make the boys feel better.

Strange. Aine is in a strange position. Why is this happening to me...

What am I going to do? I'm not prepared for this. That's funny.

As everyone's "big sister", she was fully prepared to do that kind of thing, but...

Huh, I'm going to get a boat!

Oh, come on, Aine. Wait!

If the boat is not ready for the deserted island when Naya-kun returns, she will have to be spanked!　I'll be off for a bit!

I'm coming with you!　I mean, come on, wait. Aine...!

Oh. Sorry about that. I can't leave the ship to the deserted island for a while.

The boatman said to Aine and Leticia, who came to the boat landing, "Recently, the cove where the Horned Serpent is caught is off-limits, isn't it?

I've heard that the cove where the Horned Serpent is caught is off limits these days.　Because of that, the number of 'Horned Serpents' that weren't hunted has increased, and the demons' sphere of influence seems to have changed. I heard that demons have appeared on the uninhabited island as well, so we can't sail for a while.

Then the boatman sighed.

"I've been able to buy the 'Horned Serpent' from the mermaids, so I can afford to launch my ship, but ...... I'm afraid there's a demon on the island. I'm sorry, but that's the way things are going.

............, oh my God.

"Why don't you go to the Adventurers' Guild?

The boatman tells Aine, who has fallen to her knees in disbelief, "I sent a request to the Fishermen's Guild to kill you.

I've sent out a request to the Fishermen's Guild to take them down. I'm sure someone else has received the order and is already on their way to do it. Why don't you check?
