Strolling at the Sea
After spending a night at the Cerulean Shrine, the following day, we left and went for an underwater stroll.
“"Teiya~!"”
When Allen and Elena spotted monsters, they swiftly swam towards them, changing their postures along the way and kicking with both feet while maintaining their momentum.
(Mumu. Underwater combat is indeed challenging~ I can't switch my movements as smoothly as they can.)

Naruhito (1)
"That's your name, from today, you are Naruhito.”
When I woke up, Hiiro was lying next to me in his underwear. I don't remember, but did we do it? The body heat where we're close feels nice.
Feels nice? Did we do it? It hurts in various places when I do it. It's disgusting.
Huh? So he held me without doing anything even though he washed my body? This is the best~!
If I could die here, it might be the happiest.
No, I want to have candy one m...
Hiiro (3)
"I'm sorry."
A small, whispering voice. Thirteen's body swayed unsteadily. Moving aside the towel I had been wiping his head with, I held the sleeping figure. Placing his head on my lap and patting his chest, the breathing quickly became deep.
"I thought so.”
Hitachimaru, who was standing by the bedside, muttered.
"This one has a cute face, doesn't he?"
"His situation down there is terrible. Covered in scars from the forced entry. ...

"Should we wash up?"
Hiiro said as he touched my hair.
I can go to the bathroom by myself now. The IV has been removed. The gruel has turned into porridge. Porridge is ten times better than gruel. But it's no match for candy.
Well, there's no help for it. Candy is made by mixing all the delicious things in the world.
Other than going to the bathroom and eating, I just laze around in bed.

Diaz’s Regrets
When life had settled down, an anonymous letter arrived.
"Sister-in-law?”
I couldn't even call her my sister anymore, but I had met her a few times. While it appeared that I had cut ties with Dania on the surface, the truth was that I hadn't.
I was surprised to receive a letter at this time. I immediately imagined that something must be up because the person who delivered the letter was Lady Anesia....

"Ah~ he fell asleep. Look at him, drooling. Poor thing. He probably wanted candy."
"Pfft. It really is drooling. It must like sweets?"
"Well, he probably didn't know how to eat candy. It must have been the first time he had something this tasty, right?"
"Well, I guess so~ This thing is like a weapon, after all."
While holding Thirteen vertically, I repositioned him on his side.

The group gathered in a room rented from the Adventurers' Guild, consisting of Milfi, Cedar-kun, Protectors of the Amethysts, and Ernst, who happened to be at the Guild at the time. We discussed the Extra Dungeon.
After the explanation, Ernst raised his hand and spoke, "It's very interesting, but I'd probably just be a burden. I have my research to attend to, so I'll decline. I'd rather investigat...

Hiiro carried me from the bathroom to the bed.
This... feels incredibly pleasant. Our bodies pressed close together, so warm. What is this? Can we stay like this forever?
All I need now is to be able to eat the candy, and then I'm ready to die.
Clutching onto Hiiro with my right hand and leg, I looked at Hitachimaru's military uniform pocket. The candy came from there before, right?
I want the candy. Just one more time.

I can move now. What should I do? Should I pretend I can't move? But I need to use the bathroom.
If I move, will Hitachimaru get angry?
I really need to use the bathroom.
Unable to endure any longer, I slowly got out of bed. I'm wobbly, but I can stand. Well, the wounds hurt, but I can manage.
But where is the bathroom?
As if on cue, the door opened, and Hitachimaru entered.
Seeing me standing, he reflexively pointed a gun at me. Wow, he's am...
Hiiro (1)
Even while in the office, I couldn't help but be curious about the Combat Doll. Since moving around would be too much of a hassle, I had a sofa brought into the Combat Doll's room. By reading the documents here, I can also check on him at any time, killing two birds with one stone. I don't know when he will wake up again. He might sleep for a day or two.
Sometimes, he mutters something. Things like: ah, right there, or it hurts, and yep. He sleep-talks a lot.<...
Prince (2)
Probably against all odds, on the morning of the fourth day, I went to check on it, and it suddenly opened its eyes.
Its right eye moved around, and it gazed at me as if it had come to some understanding.
Oh, did it notice its left eye?
When I tried to give it some water, it choked. I must have rushed it. When I stroked its back, it closed its eyes with contentment. What's going on? It's so adorable.
Hitachimaru entered the room later and...

Dangerous me!?
"However, you see, Cristea is still a child..."
"Did you witness the exchange between Miss Mariel and Ruby-sama earlier? Regardless of guardians, us adults, and even the Sacred Beasts' protection, there's no guarantee that there won't be any weaknesses somewhere. Miss Cristea must be aware of this and act cautiously. Otherwise, everyone may regret what we did here today."

Tirie-san and Galvano Ojisama seemed to be resigned with distant look in their eyes, which is somewhat painful!

Starting To Deal With White Rank Equipment (3)
A certain new adventurer’s Point of View
Shellche and I discussed and decided to purchase this armor.
We both had a budget of 1000 Rubies, and it was better than having nothing but basic clothing.
This equipment seems to be crafted using a technique called Magic Tailoring, and it fits perfectly on our skin without the need for adjustments.
Shellche was already impressed by that alone, so...

“Mariel... I want to protect you as much as I can. But there's no such thing as perfect protection in anything. There will surely be situations where I can't help you. So please, I want you to learn how to protect yourself. Don't let me regret not teaching you how to use this when the time comes."

I swam alongside the people of the Blue Waters Shrine for a while. After passing through a barrier similar to the one in the Blue Waters Shrine, a crystal castle with a green tinge appeared before us.
