Eternal Adventurer (WN): Chapter 434

 

Fragrance



"I'm back~!"


""Welcome back~""


The party was over.


I was relaxing with Wince in the guest room when Tenrei came back.


"We're on the third floor, right? How did you get in through the balcony?"


Can she fly?


"Fufu, don't underestimate me. I've prepared something like this!"


With that, she removed something from the balcony.


Is that a hook?


"What is that?"


"A grappling rope?"


"There’s no rope, right?"


"Here, try touching it."


She says that and then she makes a gesture like she threw something at me.


Something appears to glow in the candlelight


"Is this… hair?"


Yes


There's a strand of hair tied to the hook.


"What’s with this length and what kind of hair is it?"


"It's Shiro's."


"………Ha?"


"It's a rope made from Shiro's hair that I've been collecting for many years from the bed in the Temple."


What does that mean?


"Shiro is a synthetic dragon. There's no reason why you can't make orihalcum from your body."


"So this is my hair and an orichalcum rope?"


"That's right."


That's scary


I was not told about it.


"Well, since I revealed it, it can't be helped. Come on, Wince, you got something to say, right?"


"Wince?"


"Um, there are a few things in the temple coffers that are made from Shiro-san...."


Hey, what did you use?


What did you use besides my hair!


"Come on, Shiro-san, let's listen to Tenrei's report instead of such trivial matters!"


"I don't give a shit! No, but Tenrei's report is more important..."


When I said that, Tenrei took out a glass bottle.


"Hey, where did you just take that from?"


"My cleavage?"


"No matter how you look at it now, you don’t have any cleavage, do you?"


"A woman always has a secret or two to hide."


"Forget it... just report it."


Tenrei's report was brief.


There were no incidents today


There were a number of bubbles rising from the lake.


We're going to take a sample of the lake to Eckezachs now.


"Are you going to return to Eckezachs now?"


"No, I'm not going back. There are a few fairies heading this way, thinking something like this might happen."


Well-prepared.


Is everything within Tenrei's expectations?


"For now, this is the limit for today. I'll start moving again tomorrow night."


"I see, thank you for your hard work."


"Umu, give me a reward."


Tenrei said as she opened her legs.


"Close your legs."


"What, you won’t give me a reward?"


"A lot of people will question me."


"I don’t mind?"


"I don't want them to hear your moans."


"Hoh, you’re quite possessive!"


"Is it bad?"


"That’s good, I really like your possessiveness."


Beside her is Wince, who strongly agrees with Tenrei's words.


"I brought you some alcohol instead."


In fact, I bribed Tenrei with some of the party's alcohol and food that I took in secret.


"Isn't that kind of you? I was just getting hungry..."


However, the moment Tenrei pulled out the cork of the alcohol, she frowned.


Right, I know.


"It's really a thing that can't even be replaced as a reward."


"It’s amazing in a way, isn’t it?"


"It smells awful."


It doesn't smell bad.


It's not harsh.


Just a sweet smell overflowing from the bottle.


"Is this the fragrance of this country?"


"Yes, it's called Lavinia."


Tenrei takes the bottle and starts drinking it.


Did she drink a little?


She pulled her mouth away as soon as her throat moved.


"It doesn't taste good..."


"Yeah, it tastes really bad."


Wince agrees with Tenrei's impressions.


"They didn't take out the impurities, did they?"


"The concentration was not adjusted either. The concentration of alcohol in each bottle is very different."


"That's terrible. Then how dirty are these bottles?"


"Probably neither the ladle nor the funnel. The size of the impurities means that neither a net nor a cloth was used..."


"Or maybe they stuck the bottle in a liquor cask..."


Not just alcohol


"Even the food..."


Yes


All the food is covered with the smell of Lavinia.


"…Are the people in this country okay?"


"Maybe that's Lavinia's characteristic."


"What do you mean?"


"Does Tenrei still smell Lavinia's scent?"


Hearing my words, Tenrei begins to take a deep breath.


"...I see. It's not a pungent smell, so your nose will get used to it quickly."


"What's more, all the nobles' clothes have this smell."


"That's the way it is, I'm sure the nobles consume the perfumes that everyone else is bathed in."


It can be said that everything in this country revolves around Lavinia.


The economy, food, and even values.


This is like a drug


"Then, would you like me to look into this alcohol as well?"


"Not the alcohol, but the smell?"


"Well, since we're sane, I don't think there's any harm in it."
