Equipment Consultation
The meal was over, and I needed to plan the schedule for the upcoming events.
I've asked everyone from the Wildcat Claws to move to the inn I was using, because I needed to decide on the plans for tomorrow and beyond.
Well, it's going to be a magic stone hunt.
"Alizée, which of the Spider Silks should I prioritize on delivering?”
"Let's see. Please prioritize delivering about five rolls of Mana Spider Silk as product samples. Aft...

Dungeon of Scorching Heat (3)
The next day, we enthusiastically stepped onto the second floor.
"It's a bit chilly here~"
The second floor was completely different from the first floor, resembling a mine tunnel. Moreover, it felt considerably colder.
"Allen, Elena, are you guys okay?"
“”Okay?””
Allen and Elena tilted their heads while saying they're okay. This doesn't seem okay.
"Here, put these on."
“”Yes~””

Dinner Party with Everyone
After concluding the discussion on the terms and conditions, it was around lunchtime, so we decided to have a meal together.
I was covering the expenses this time.
I haven't been to any fancy places myself, so I was quite curious.
Alizée had a recommendation for a restaurant, so I invited her to join us for the meal.
Although Alizée initially declined due to her duties, she agreed to come along, mentioning that we'll likely be wo...

Ingenious Idea
At first, I was just a conversation partner, receiving special treatment as the Duchess's friend.
Sometimes I would visit the Duchess together with Cyril.
We talked about childcare, discussing the upbringing of Lady Eliana’s child, and even seeking advice on new baby clothes.
"Lady Marie, how about this design?"
"Oh my, that’s a lovely hat. You indeed have a great artistic talent, Lady Eliana....

And the Goddess (lol) with her head in her hands.
While taking a break with Dirk, a communication came in from Kanata-san. When a communication comes in from Kanata-san, somehow... the ringtone somehow presents itself as a horror-like background music.
"The music sounds kinda scary, doesn’t it? Are you not going to answer?"
"... I don't want to answer."
However, I couldn't just not answer, so I reluctantly decided to pick up. I casually sat on Dirk's la...

Still troubled, but happy people.
Kanata’s Point of View
The youngest, Shukul, was comfortably settled on my knee, purring away. On the right, my second daughter; on the left, my eldest son; and on my back, my eldest daughter. They were all purring away as well. Somehow, the kids have grown quite fond of me. When I'm relaxing at home, before I realized, they’ve gathered around me like this.
Man, I'm so happy.
And just as I was b...

Wildcat Claws
The members of "Wildcat Claws," who were brought to me, are four in total.
The leader's name is Keuko, a vanguard who wields dual swords. Another vanguard is Uhina, using a one-handed sword and a shield. Akumi was the archer, and Tomoa was the magician, the youngest at 22 years old.
It seems that Alizée has already informed them about the terms of the contract, and they will guard me and assist me in hunting monsters.
However, because I have many se...

Selection of Guards
After the meeting with Alizée, we proceeded to have interviews with the candidate adventurers for the bodyguard role.
All of the adventurers were from the Red Rank, so they seemed quite capable.
In other words, it was inevitable that most of them were a year or more older than me.
Adventurer registration becomes possible at the age of 15, and to progress from the Green Rank to the Blue Rank requires at least a year of experience, making the mi...

“This…! These are all high-rank magic stones! No, no, no! It’s a waste to use such good magic stones as mere decorations!”
“Eh~? I have plenty of these.”
“Don’t say such foolish things. If you don’t use a suitable base for these magic stones, the staff (cane) will break as soon as you accidentally channel magic through it.”
Eh, is that so!?
“The magic stones are of different colors, but if you just embed them in a...

A Personal Affairs Manager, Alizée
A week after becoming a Bronze Ranked merchant, I received a message from the Trade Guild stating that progress had been made regarding the party to serve as my guards.
I would hear the details once I arrived at the Trade Guild.
Since they wanted me to come as soon as I was ready, I headed to the Trade Guild immediately after finishing breakfast.
Upon arriving at the Trade Guild, I was escorted to a reception room where Miss ...

The business deal this time was settled at 700,000 Rubies.
However, it seems that Miss Priscilla still had more to discuss.
I wonder what it could be.
“Miss Lily. You are a Green Rank merchant, right? Won’t you raise your rank?”
“Raise my rank? Why would I?”
“First, it's to increase the trustworthiness of the goods you're trading. Even a Green Rank merchant couldn't possibly deal with Spider Silk, it'll raise even mo...

As soon as I said that, Tirie-san reacted strongly and ran away like the wind, shouting “I’ve been waiting for you! Kurogane-samaaaa!” … Hey, he’s definitely using body enhan...

Mana Spider Silk’s Price
"Welcome, Miss Lily. What brings you here today?"
Mr. Vinci, who was waiting in the reception room, asked me about my purpose as I entered.
That's right, it's not common to suddenly summon the Vice-Guild Master.
But my business today is anything but ordinary.
"I apologize for interrupting your busy schedule. Can you take a look at this fabric?"
I took out the Mana Spider Silk from my backpack and spread it out on the table...

Dungeon of Scorching Heat (2)
Finally, we enter the 71st dungeon, "Scorching Heat," and passed through the entrance to proceed to the first floor.
“”Warm?"”
"Yeah, it is."
The moment we pass the boundary, the temperature clearly changed.
Around 25 degrees Celsius (77 °F), I suppose? It's quite warm from the beginning.
Assuming it gets hotter and hotter, I wonder how hot it will be when we reach the 50th floor, the final floor? I have no idea, to...

Large Mana Silk Spider
Having changed into a different race, Talat quickly provided me with the threads that would become Mana Spider Silk.
The threads had a whiter and more elegant glow than regular Spider Silk, exuding a sense of refinement.
I wonder if I can weave them into cloth successfully.
“Magic Weaving!”
… It seems that the daily practice of magic weaving with Spider Silk paid off, as I managed to create Mana Spider Silk as well.

They are undoubtedly saying that to unsettle me.

Dirk seemed happy.

"Because you relied on me."

"Here. Today, I'll be selling 10 sets of Ogre horns and fangs."
After taking a two-day break since reaching the Green Rank, I've been diligently defeating Ogres.
However, I try to limit it to around 10 per day.
That way, I can receive rewards for three requests at once, as the extermination unit is set at 3 ogres.
I'm also able to secure enough magic stones to give to Talat, which makes me happy.

After the battle, Talat set up sturdy spider cobweb around the campsite and wrapped the Anteater Bears in cocoons.
Following the examiner's instructions, we continued camping until dawn.
Once the sun rose, the examinees and half of the examiners returned to the city, while the other half of the supervisory team stayed to investigate the cause of the Anteater Bears’ appearance at the campsite.
It was decided that it wou...

"Miss Lily, wake up. It's time for your shift."

As someone with a pocket watch, I can tell it's still 30 minutes early for the shift change.
But pointing that out would be troublesome, and since I'm already awake, I might as well take the watch duty for the camp.
Near the campfire, I saw two examiners on watch duty.
