Chapter + filler episode
The next day, everyone got started on the refilling work early in the morning.
I helped out too, since it was important for us to meet the deadline tomorrow. [5] Also, if we work hard now, we could take a small break in the afternoon.
Also, I intended to speak to everyone over lunch today.
Today’s lunch was Beef Katsu Sandwiches, made from the cutlets I had been frying all day yesterday.
It is very easy to make Katsu Sa...

Where the previous chapter suffered from access of inane dialogues, this one suffered from a serious lack of interactive dialogues. Gumi sort of… went crazy and took over
After leaving Lambert’s, I immediately headed for the general store and bought up all their bottles. I need them for the Divine Medicine, Hair Power [6] as well as for the shampoos and conditioners.
I ended up with 1,000 bottles. Including the ones at home, surely these would be enough?

Gumi: …why is this chapter such a bore? Business transactions can be interesting too, you know?
Hahhh…
Note [8] for ‘changed because the style is boring’.
“Hello, Marie-san. Is Lambert-san around?”
“Oh my, it’s Mukouda-sama [8]~ Welcome, welcome~”
“I take it sales is very good?” [7] she was almost sparkling. [5]

Makia here.
I can see the MP or Magical Points of the people around me. Beyond that, I can also read compatibility measures and future potentials. However, I can only know all of this if I know their names.
Back when I was the Crimson Witch of the West. I, the ‘Name Fate Witch’ named a lot of babies in my time. [2] I came from a long line of famous witches and the house I was born in was buried deep in the forest but it was so famous that lots of people came to visit us all th...

Gumi Rant: Why so perfunctory? Details! Give us details! No? Then, Gumi shall provide the details!
“Oi, what are you doing?”
“Hm? [8] I’m going to Appraise the Magic Tools we had gotten from the Bandit King’s cave.”

After our little party, I took a leisurely bath with Dora-chan and Sui to soak away my exhaustion.
It should be straight to bed afterwards with my familiars, [1] but, I still have something else to do.
Demiurgos-sama’s offering.
While I had decided to give the offerings once a week, due to the trip, last week’s offerings had been delayed.
However, I don’t think Demiurgos-sama was the type to get angry at me for a little understandable delay, unlike some other, mo...

“Since we have these, let’s have a Layered Hotpot for dinner tonight.”
In front of me were some very splendid looking Chinese cabbages with bright green leaves and strong white stems. They were also heavier than they looked, a good indicator of their quality.
These were grown by Alban in a field behind the main house.
Alban said, “We grew this leaf vegetable from some of the seeds provided by Mukouda-san. It’s very delicious, we all enjoyed it very much.”

I’m Makia and I’ve just turned 11.
I’m on a spring picnic right now.
[2] The Southern Continent always did have a warm and stable climate. Therefore so, spring here is very mild and gentle. The blooming almond flowers are just beautiful.

“Oi, isn’t today’s breakfast too shoddy?”
“”Is this it?””
“”Sad...””
[5] I blinked, today’s breakfast was premade Soboro Bowl with plenty of minced meat on top.
However, I had forgotten to include some extra toppings, so everyone looked like they were eating brown kibbles or something. It certainly did not look appetising.
Even after realising this, it took me a moment to respond. Reading Kazuki’s diary was really tiring in all sense o...

Warning:
Gumi is really freaking annoyed by the 3rd person POV. It's all Kazuki this, Kazuki said that, in a bloody autobiography of all freaking things. However, there is a certain genius to it. The word count ended up being much higher.
I stayed in the demon village for another half a year after learning about the shipwreck story from my friends. [6] I have seen maps of this world and knew that the entire place was a whole single landmass. A con...

Warning:
Since autobiography uses 1st person POV, Gumi will switch over whenever appropriate.
By ‘whenever appropriate’, Gumi meant the entire freaking chapter. So, [8] on that.
Also, there was a lot of unnecessary or unlikely information from Mukouda.
By unlikely, Gumi meant things Mukouda could never have known!!

My name is Elena Odelle.
Also Countess Odelle.
Just the other day, a new servant came to our mansion.
My husband, Elric, comes back from Karted with a child to be our Makia’s companion. A cute boy child with black hair and black eyes called Tooru Sagaram.
There is something very odd about the whole meeting.
The child is supposed to meet Makia for the first time and yet, though they were both surprised to see each other, they acted more like old friends that hav...

I think… the mountain of presents next to me [1] could crush me if it ever collapses. At least let me touch some of the delicious food lined up on the table before making me tackle that monstrosity.
“Makia-chan, the dress you’re wearing today is very cute. I want one too!”
Smirda-chan’s greed is on full power today as well I see. She always wants what others have. Well, she’s a child after all.

This is Makia.
Today is my 7th birthday. I’m glad to finally be another year older.
Winter is coming and it has been a little cold these last few days. However, it is also the season for delicious food.
Especially here, in the Delia Fields, where [1], in addition to our locally produced fruits and vegetables, we could get all kinds of foreign ingredients from the harbour city. So, I can expect a lot of variety when it comes to food.

I am Elric Odille.
After throwing out my back and having my important documents snatched away right before my eyes, I am spared the worst scenario by a brave young boy.
He looks like a very well-mannered boy with striking black hair and dark eyes.
The few things I know for sure about this child are his name, his hair and eye colour and the fact that he was in this harbour city earlier.

My name is Tooru Sagaram, age 10.
In my previous life, I was Saiga Tooru. Moreover, I was the Black Demon King, ruling over the north of a very different Maydea.
So, how did a Demon King end up here?
It’s all the fault of that Hero. Because he killed us, I am reborn once more into Maydea.
Right now I am a chimney sweeper of the Harbour City Karted, in the Southern Continent. Although this is the southern part of the world, it still gets cold during winter.

My name is Elric Odille, a Count of the Ruskia Kingdom. We are a major ruling nation in the Southern Continent.
Though my county consists mostly of the countryside, I am in charge of the Delia Fields. Where the lands are wide, [1] rich and fertile and each year, profit pour into our coffers through the sale of fruits and other harvests.
Today, I came to the neighbouring harbour city, Karted.
As expected from a harbour city, life here is very different from the countryside.

I used to often say that I want to return to childhood once again but maintain the mind of an adult. I guess that’s why the saying ‘be careful what you wish for’ exists.
To be honest, it’s not great to be a kid with a mind of a grown up. For one thing, I can’t have a proper conversation with fellow kids.
This is perfectly natural since I am over 200 years old.
You’d think being an adult would help me handle playing with 6 year olds at their level, but...

I was kind of hurt by it too. I mean, aren’t we just high-schoolers? Absolutely harmless high-schoolers that would never harm either humans or animals.
Is this some kind of punishment for all the sins we had committed back when we were demon kings?

I’m sorry to say that this chapter is structurally dubious with Mukouda reverting to his spineless self of chapter 10. Dude, like, you’ve already experienced all these things.
Sigh.
Gumi will fix the dialogues to reflect a less OOC Mukouda, because a spineless Mukouda is seriously OOC at this point. Habitual caution is fine but not ‘Ugh! Gyahh! Oh no, my spine is made from string cheese, Fer!’
It was probably...

Fer took the lead, taking us into the cave that was basically a hole on the side of the cliff. [1] The further we went in, the darker it got.

A deep forest spread out from the foot of Mt Berith.
