Ore wa Mada, Honki o Dashite Inai

16. Pearls with excellent freshness

The city of Pindos, a familiar whorehouse.

When I was sloppy about nominating Ortier as usual, she suddenly corrected her residence before me and lowered her head with her hands together.

"Hermes, I have a lifetime favor to ask!

"How many times in your life do you have one?"

I was falling asleep with my cheek cane, but I get up and look at Ortier.

She lowered her head and looked up at her face.

There's more adorable than color in a whore's ass, Ortier, even if you ask me to do you a lifetime favor.

"I can't help it, just say it"

I get the feeling that

"Actually, I want a Terme pearl."

"The pearl of Terme? You want to make it an accessory?

"Yeah, a little bit of a lot. I'm not dressed without it."

"Hmm."

Accessories for women, well, that would happen.

"If that's the case, I won't ask for details, but how much will it cost?"

It's easier if you can solve it with money, rather you're welcome.

That's what I thought.

"It's already sold out, wherever you go. That's why I want you to get it."

Ortier lowered her head again with her hands together.

As soon as I did, I was on guard.

"You want me to get it?

"The pearl of Terme is in a shellfish named Terme. I want you to fetch that shellfish."

"... is it hard to take that shellfish?

"Uh, is it easy for a guy?

……

I got lost, is it really easy?

I also think there might be some kind of trap......

In short, you want the pearl.

"Yeah, this is right, please for the rest of your life!

"Okay, I'll do something about it"

I decided to take on Ortier's favor.

Leave the whorehouse and return to the mansion.

I thought a lot along the way.

I thought there was a trap, but if that's really hard, let the money say something and we can do something about it.

It doesn't matter if the common man doesn't sell out and get it, or if he's a baron.

Rather, it's just right to play the selfish Lord.

That's why I've undertaken.

Let me ask you something first, if there is a risk of losing strength, it will be solved with gold.

So it came together, and I came back to the mansion.

"Welcome home, Master!

Midea was waiting for me in front of the mansion.

He rushes over with sparkling eyes, like a puppy who finds his owner.

"I'm home."

"Where were you, Master?"

My eyes were sparkling when I heard that.

I can't just say to a girl with these eyes, "I went to a whorehouse".

"More than that, Midea, you know the pearl of Terme?

"Yes, it's a pearl in the shellfish of Terme, isn't it? It's so beautiful, it glows at night and in the dark."

"Hmm... is that hard to take?

"Terme shellfish is so easy."

"Huh?"

I figured it would be expensive because of the luminous nature of the night, and it would lead to a lack of strength, but is it easy after all?

"Why do you ask that, Master?"

"No, I thought I'd get it because I needed it a little bit."

"Yes!? You can't do that!

Midea suddenly got angry.

"You can leave it to the master's servant to do what anyone can do. It's like cutting radishes with a holy sword."

"Exaggerated, but wasted."

"I'm not exaggerating!

Midea further argues.

Hmm, it's really easy for her to get so angry.

Then why don't you take it lightly and give it to Ortier?

The next day, I summed up what I had heard and came to Mount Licaion, which is in the realm.

From what I hear, the shellfish of Terme live not in the sea, but in a place with hot springs.

I climbed a mountain where the smell of sulphur intensified, cautioning that it would not be a hot spring to monster animals again.

"Er... you should just back off where the hot springs are flowing out, huh?

Look around the mountains based on the information.

Then, like a geyser, I found a place that was spraying hot springs like a water column.

When I approached the blowing center - there was.

Hot springs erupted just before, and they're flooded guccio around them. There was shellfish there.

"That's funny, the shellfish are really knitted"

This was just pre-informed again.

Terme shellfish are two shellfish like clams or something, but although those two shellfish are surprisingly closed, they are braided.

So even as I stand, I can see that there's something glowing in the shellfish that's on the ground.

Give in, take one shellfish.

"That was really easy."

Climb the mountains, find where the hot springs are out, and pick them up.

It was really easy.

Strongly speaking, it is difficult for whores, the ultimate of the indoors.

All right, I thought I'd bring this back - then.

The shellfish is a bit open, and the main body inside is più! And I've thrown up something.

Avoid it now, the spit splattered on the ground.

Did you think it was venom? I crouched down and checked it.

"It's just a hot spring."

I was alert again for a moment, but I ate my shoulder blush again.

It's time, already.

"I'm starting to look like an asshole to be on guard"

And I snapped with a bitter smile.

In the first place, you can de-alert yourself with Midea's reaction.

No longer does Midea believe in me as much as she does in my followers, it would be really easy for that Midea to get more shellfish than she did and got angry.

I laughed bitterly, but nothing wrong with the easy part.

Do the simple things normally.

Nothing positive or negative.

The shellfish threw up liquid again, holding hands together.

It's just a hot spring, it's like I'm not supposed to include that in my mouth... this is a wuss.

You wanted pearls, then let's just take the pearls home.

I opened the shellfish.

It opened much easier than a clam.

The shellfish had a bunk structure.

There are two little shells in the two shells, which are like gizzard teeth.

The moment it opened, the shellfish in the back tried to bite the pearl.

I reached out sassy and snapped a pearl.

"Ah, hey, what, if they're going to take it, they're going to destroy themselves"

Throw down the shellfish of Terme with the pearls removed by the geyser.

I went down the mountain with only pearls.

Ortier's room inside the whorehouse.

"Ho, the pearl of Terme. That's all right."

"Thanks! - Yeah, yeah!?

Pearls I once put in a jewelry box.

Ortier, who received it and opened the jewelry box, raised her voice.

"Here, this! Terme Pearl!?

"Yeah, but?

I wonder what you asked for.

"How did you take it?

"How..."

.................. No way.

I felt a nasty sweat on my back.

"Hey Ortier, how do you take pearls from shellfish? Normally (,,,)"

"Let it dry up. If you try to open it normally, the shellfish will break the pearl, so take a month to dry it slowly, wait for the shellfish to die, and then remove the pearl."

"... if you open it normally, can't you?

"Not bad, but very fast. If it's a punch, it needs to be fast enough to hit you 100 times a second. Shellfish - No! Is this so!?

Goodbye, they noticed.

"No, no, no, that's not true."

"Liar... hang in there"

Ortier put down the crate and circled the window of the room one after another.

I knew immediately what I was going to do.

When the room was completely closed and dark, the pearl glowed.

It was horrible.

It was glowing, as if there was a small sun in the room.

"Wow! Not really dry"

"What happens when it's dry?
