When we hand over the herbs at the guild, we get really surprised somehow. Too fast, they say.
“Does it normally take more?”
“Well yeah. Normally you can only search steadily. Search little by little while watching for magic beasts. If you try to gather up to the request amount, it’s generally a day’s work.”
On top of that, it’s not profitable work either, they say.
C-rank adventurers will gather herbs if they don’t have other requests, apparently, but at B-rank and above they start thinking they’ll wait until a B-rank request comes. The reward is totally different, apparently.
On top of that, if you don’t find them with herb gathering, the profit drops too. It’s not stable at all, they say.
“Hmm… Then maybe I’ll try a subjugation request next.”
“That’d suit you better, missy. If I’ve got time I’ll come along.”
“Mm.”
Together with someone might be more fun than alone, so I might ask then.
The reward I got from the receptionist, I ended up taking all of it. We didn’t do anything, they said. We’re not short on money either, they also said, but I’m not that short either. Well, being persistent won’t help, so this time I’ll take it.
What do I do after this. It finished faster than I expected. Hmm…
“Maybe I’ll go look for mofumofu…”
‘What happened so suddenly, Rita-chan lol’
‘Mysterious mofumofu fever’
‘You thought it was mofumofu and it was coarse lol’
I don’t usually care that much. But somehow today I’m in a mofumofu mood. I heard Japan has lots of fluffy pets too, so maybe that’s the influence.
But even if I look I don’t think I’ll find any, so maybe I’ll give up.
That’s what I thought, but.
‘Rita-chan, it’s Mami. If it’s okay, come here in the evening.’
‘Oh?’
‘Mami-chan?’
‘Ma?’
Mm… Probably Mami herself. If she’s going out of her way to say she wants me to come, is there something.
For now I decided to wait a little more, then teleport to Japan.
Evening. When I teleport into Mami’s house, a person I don’t know is waiting in the living room. She’s wearing the same thing as the uniform Mami’s been wearing lately. Same school, maybe? Her brown hair is cut short.
That person looks at me who teleported in, and her eyes go round.
“Um…”
Mm… What do I do. How do you greet, again. Um. Um.
‘They’re both trying to greet and stopping…’
‘What do we do about this lololol’
Really, what do I do.
The two of us freeze without saying anything, but Mami comes into the living room right away. She looks at me, looks at the person who was in first, and then for some reason smiles wryly.
“Evening, Rita-chan. I was waiting.”
“Mm. Is there something?”
“Yeah. I think you’ll be happy, the way you are now, Rita-chan.”
Before that, Mami prefixes, and
“This kid is Sakina. My friend.”
“N-nice to meet you! I’m Sakina! Nice to meet you!”
Sakina stands up with force and bows her head. What is this, I can tell she’s super energetic.
“Mm. I’m Rita. Nice to meet you.”
“Yes!”
Sakina raises her face and turns back to Mami.
“I-I was surprised! I got called suddenly so I wondered what, but Rita-chan is here! I was surprised!”
“Ahaha. Yeah. Um, sorry?”
Hmm… Sakina apparently didn’t know I was coming. I thought just a little maybe the magic I put on Mami failed, but that doesn’t seem to be it, so I’m relieved.
But why did Mami introduce this kid to me. And the box at Sakina’s feet, a cage I think? What’s that.
“But, I see. So that’s why you called me, Mami.”
Mm. Sakina seems to have an idea. I look at Mami, and our eyes meet. She’s smiling mischievously.
“Then, Rita-chan! I watch the stream too! I was watching now too!”
“Mm. Thanks.”
“Yeah! And see! I keep dogs!”
Dogs. Wanko. Mofumofu. Maybe.
My gaze shifts down to the cage before I can help it. Sakina seems to notice that too, and opens the cage lid. Then Sakina takes that kid out of the cage.
A small, very small dog. A brownish fluffy mofumofu puppy. Already from how it looks it’s fluffy. Mofumofu. Cute.
The puppy being held up by Sakina looks a little sleepy, and goes kua, a small yawn.
“Waa…”
‘Crap this is insanely cute!’
‘Mofumofu you can tell from looking!’
‘Lucky lucky I want to mofu too!’
Amazing. Super mofumofu. I want to touch.
I was staring at the puppy, and Sakina holds the puppy out.
“Here. It’s a well-behaved kid, so it won’t struggle if you hold it!”
“Mm…”
I try holding it gently. The way to hold it, the same as Sakina…
Waa… Super, super mofumofu…!
“Mofumofu…!”
‘Rita-chan looks happy so I’m happy too’
‘Cute and cute combined and it’s very cute’
‘What are you even saying’
It’s super mofumofu. Yeah. Super, super happy. Nnfuu.
