Runaway
Shiro and I made a devil's contract with Amaimon and were able to return to the lakeside log cabin in Amru Dungeon.
"After all, my home is the best!"
"The location is like a scenic summer resort, so it's more relaxing!"
Shiro and I were relaxing on the sofa on the wooden deck of the lakeside log cabin, talking leisurely.
"Still, I never expected that the entrance to the Amru Dungeon would be in the toilet closet of the Royal Palace Casino!"
"Well, it's because it's convenient for Father, isn't it?"
"He's in charge of cleaning the toilets."
I don't acknowledge him as a parent, but it's so sad that the job of someone who claims to be my parent is to clean the toilet.
In fact, it would be even sadder if the entrance to the dungeon in my hometown was actually a toilet storeroom.
"Anyway, now I can go to the southern continent anytime I want!"
I changed my mind to get rid of my sad mood.
On the southern continent, there is a soapland and prostitution called [Crescent Moon], and my harem member, Masako Hara, is also there.
Moreover, on the southern continent, I obtained an [Adventurer's Bracelet], an artifact that can install advanced barriers and teleportation magic in a dungeon.
This will make it easier to move around the Amru Dungeon.
Just in case, while returning to the lakeside log cabin, I installed teleportation magic on the lowest floor of the Amru dungeon, the 35th level where Mary and the others are, the 29th level which is the hunting ground, and the 22nd level where the lakeside log cabin.
"Now we can go see Father whenever we want!"
"You, how much of a Father-con are you!"
"Please don’t be sad! I like Master better!"
As we were relaxing on the garden sofa while talking,
"Kyui!"
Ori Hime deftly brought a tropical juice on a tray on its head.
"After not seeing you for a while, you started to become more attentive!"
"Wasn’t the lazy Mina-san using Ori Hime like a maid?"
Shiro is still strict with Mina.
"I mean, I haven’t seen Mina since we got home."
"I think she's probably in her room looking at gold coins."
"Kyui!"
"No way!?"
Shiro jumps up from the sofa when she hears Ori Hime's words.
"What's wrong?"
"Mina-san. Ori Hime says that she left the house, taking gold, silver and treasure and the Diamond Slime with her!"
"What did you say!"
An unexpected runaway.
Or rather, a thief?
"Let's chase her!"
"Chase her! But we don't know where she went, right?"
Personally, I don't think anything of it when my gold and silver treasures are stolen.
Because the money tree is right in front of me.
In fact, with Shiro, it's possible to earn as much money as I want.
"I'll make as much money as I can for Master!
But thieves are no good!"
Shiro read my mind and scolded me.
Shiro is serious and has strict morals.
"Well, even if we were to look for Mina, we wouldn’t know where she is, right?"
"It’s definitely the Amru Fortress City!
Even if she goes to the 35th level, she'll be surrounded by the ocean, and if she wants to turn the gold, silver and treasure into money, she'll have no choice but to go to Amru Fortress City!"
"Indeed."
But it's a pain.
Even though I just came back home, why do I have to go out again?
I love home. I'm an otaku!
"Master. Wouldn't you like to install a teleportation magic on the first level?"
"I might want to do that..."
The disadvantage of the lakeside log cabin that is our base is that it is far from the Amru Fortress City.
Teleportation magic has already been installed on the bottom level and the 35th level.
After that, if I install a teleportation magic on the first level, it will become extremely convenient.
"Then let’s hurry!
If we don't hurry, Mina will sell the Diamond Slime!"
"I don't mind that."
"Why!"
"It's not attached to me, and it was originally Mina's pet, right?"
"I don't approve of pet owners who abandon their pets!"
"Why not sell it instead of throwing it away?"
"Selling and throwing away are the same!
Once you own a pet, it is your duty as an owner to take care of it until the end!"
"Pets cost a lot of money..."
As I was reminiscing about the pet situation in Japan, Shiro suddenly started talking.
"I was shocked to find out that the one-time payment for rabies shots for two dogs, medicine for feraria, and medication for epilepsy exceeded 100,000 yen!''
"That's the author talking."
"And for things like hernia surgery and blood tests, I need more than 200,000 yen a year."
"That’s also the author talking."
"As for the food, I have to buy expensive food because stones form, and if you think about it, 200,000 yen isn't enough, right?''
"That’s also the author talking."
"I can't accept that there are people who carelessly keep a pet and then throw it away because it costs more than they expected!"
"The author."
"That’s why I can’t forgive Mina-san either!"
I don't really understand why, but Shiro is furious because the author said those things.
"In Mina's case, isn't it a win-win situation for both the seller and the buyer?"
"Diamond Slime-chan, it might be killed and made into a ring!"
"I think it's normal in this world to kill monsters and use them as materials and tools."
Shiro is at a loss for words after hearing my opinion.
Apparently, she realized that what she was saying was strange.
Yes, Diamond Slime-chan is a monster.
It's normal to kill monsters and use them as materials.
Beef and pork meat are commonly served at dinner tables.
However, the meat is from cows and pigs that were killed by someone else.
Then there was this story.
An oil and gas extraction technology company ordered jackets with its company logo from a famous outdoor brand as a Christmas present for its employees. There was an incident in which a company refused it because [I didn't want a fossil fuel company's logo on my jacket].
Even the famous outdoor brand's jacket is made from petroleum products.
It's good that they followed the trend of the times and advocated liberal things, but most of their products are actually petroleum products.
Even though it's a famous company, it's stupid.
Well, this is what the world is like.
"Master, you're getting off track again!"
"I just thought about it in my head, so there's no problem, right?"
"Even just for the sake of it, I've been told that they are very politically assertive!"
"I'm neither right nor left; I'm aiming for the middle ground, just like the Great Demon King Goto Saito, whom I respect!"
"I know because I read everything in Master’s head."
"Well, I guess we’re going to Amru Fortress City!"
"That's right! I'm going to help Diamond Slime-chan!"
That's why me, Shiro, and Ori Hime headed to Amru Fortress City in order to stop Mina from selling Diamond Slime-chan.
