Chapter 267
Translator: Tseirp
That was dangerous .
I wonder what would have happened if I remained in there .
“My World!”
I chanted and returned to My World before closing the door .
“Master, you defeated … it doesn’t seem like you did . Did you run away?”
Neete who was waiting there asked .
“Yeah, it’s impossible to defeat it through ordinary means . ”
“I figured . Running away is the correct choice . The Dark-Elves have organized themselves into squads but I think it is better if they are not deployed . ”
“Well, we should take our time and wait here until the spirit leaves to somewhere and we can just return to our journey . Or we could meet up with Haru and the others by transferring to Florence?”
“No, I have something I want to try so we can do that after . ”
I said as I took off my shirt and pants down to only my underwear left .
Upon doing so, Neete’s face turned red and she said shyly .
” … Okay, I am ready any time . ”
“No! Don’t misunderstand . ”
I said before jumping into the sea .
I dove as deep as I could .
Here — this should be deep enough?
Suddenly, I reached the limits of my breath .
“BoBe BeBurn (Home Return)!”
I cast the magic while I was about to drown and was somehow able to return to land .
That was a little dangerous .
“Eh? Master, what are you doing?”
Even though it only seemed like I dove into the water and returned, Neete must have felt I had done something strange .
What did I do?
“I did something that might make Pionia angry . ”
“It might anger Pionia-Oneesan?”
Yeah, the shipyard case was kind of negligence on my part but this time, it was 100% my responsibility .
“Hn? Master, the water level is decreasing?”
“Of course, since I opened a large hole at the bottom of the sea . ”
I wiped my body with a towel and used that towel to cover Neete’s eyes before changing my underwear as well .
“I see, you opened a hole — eh?”
“Since I couldn’t get the Salamander into the sea, I figured I’ll try pouring sea water onto the Salamander . What do you think? About this brain play . ”
“Uwah, Pionia-Oneesan will definitely be angry . She mentioned that she finally increased the number of good condition seaweed on the floor of the sea so she was preparing to increase the number of fishes . ”
“I’ll apologize to Pionia . It was actually Sheena No . 3 who planted the seaweed too . ”
The water level had reduced to half so I figured it was about time and closed the door to My World before opening it in front of me .
“Wait, master . I will exit first . ”
“Ha? Why?”
“Just to be careful . Don’t exit if I do not return, Master . ”
I felt that it would be all right though .
In light of Neete’s feelings, I chose to keep my words to myself .
Neete crossed the door after it opened .
Then, Neete returned immediately .
“Master, everything is fine for now . ”
For now?
I exited without knowing the meaning behind those words .
“This is amazing — the sea has become lukewarm water . ”
Steam was rising here and there .
But I couldn’t sense the presence of the Fire Spirit .
Then, the Salamander was —
“Swimming . ”
“It looks like I did not defeat it . ”
However, that should still have had the effect of weakening it .
And one other thing .
【Ichinojo leveled up】
“All right, I leveled up . ”
“Did you defeat the Salamander?”
“No, I didn’t defeat the Salamander . The Salamander fell into what seemed to be a Sand Wyrm nest . That ruin apparently had Sand Wyrms in it and they probably suffocated and died . ”
【Ice Magician skill: 「Ice Magic III」has ranked up to「Ice Magic IV」】
【Thunder Magician skill: 「Thunder Magic III」has ranked up to「Thunder Magic IV」】
All right, Ice Magic leveled up .
In that case, I guess I’ll push myself to end it .
I leave the rest to you, Setolance-sama!
I checked the magic I learned from the magic list .
“Boost Diamond Dust!”
The maximum strength Ice Magic I cast became a snowstorm that wrapped around the Salamander .
Then — before I knew it, a huge iceberg formed .
In spite of that, the Salamander was still moving its limbs within the ice .
“Hahaha, the Salamander is not bad, it can’t be defeated even with this . I can no longer move . ”
Crack gradually formed on the ice .
“Should we run?”
“No, it is doused in water and trapped in an iceberg — Setolance-sama will do something about it . ”
Just as I was thinking about it, a strange firebird flew into the iceberg and swallowed the Salamander .
I could somewhat tell .
That was Setolance-sama’s Great Spirit kin .
A Greater Fire Spirit consumed a Greater Fire Spirit — such a miracle happened .
『Thank you, Ichinosuke-kun . 』
I heard Setolance-sama’s voice .
“No no, don’t mention it . Will I receive any rewards? Although Marquis Yutings told me I could have any rewards I want . ”
『Let me see, what about this? In recognition of your hard work, I will not question your decision to bring the Dark-Elves into My World and subsequently releasing the seal on the Salamander . 』
” … Hahaha, thank you very much . ”
Perhaps the Goddess-samas would have been incredibly angry if I didn’t do anything about the Salamander .
I’m glad I fought seriously .
“What are you doing, Neete?”
“No well, my Master is seriously cool . I fell in love with you once more . ”
“Yeah, falling in love once more is fine but what are you actually doing . ”
Neete had stolen my lips as I lay on the ground .
Assaulting me while I’m down — Eh,
” … Eh?”
Strange, the sense of fatigue I felt until just now was gone .
“I returned a little of Master’s magical power . With this, you are able to move a little, right?”
“Ah … yeah, thanks . You could do something like that?”
“About that much . Next time, please return double of that . ”
Neete raised two fingers and proposed .
“Ah, all right . Now then, let’s go back . ”
Thus, my big adventurer in the Principality of Nicplan came to a close .
