Gumihou: The general edit here is mostly smoothing out paragraphs and making it seem more lively.
Ugh, my day felt ruined thanks to those annoying guys.
Aren’t you people from the church?! Why are you guys acting like yakuza or debt collectors?!!

The next day, we were lounging about the living room, relaxing our tummies after a good breakfast when I heard pounding at the door.
“Hm? Who could that be?” I muttered to myself.
I don’t think I made any plans to see anyone?
Still, I headed outside to what inconsiderate idiot was repeatedly slamming the knocker at my temporary abode.
“Yes, yes, I’m on my way. Hold on, please.”
Could it be someone from the Adventurer’s Guild? Is there some kind of e...

The corridors of the Royal Palace seem to last for eternity, but I'm alright with that.
At the end of the corridor was a large decorated door. It is opened by a soldier and I step in to find my mother and father.
They looked anxious.
I never want them to have that look on their faces.
“... Makia…”
After yesterday’s turmoil, I could not see them right away.
I heard that after my parents were evacuated from the harbor, they were taken to a hill away f...

“Oh my, it’s the body of the Wisteria Princess! Kanon, come and take a look!! [1]”
A bright voice smashes the gloomy atmosphere.
Princess Shatma, who had abstained from interfering in all matters just now, had wondered over to one of the caskets and is now exclaiming over it.
“As expected of this princess. I am beautiful regardless of the era… Oi, Kanon, come here! Look how nicely they sew this princess’s neck back together.”

Gumihou: Venturing into new territory! Gumi to edit/translate solo~!
After leaving Ruka-sama’s church, the next place we went to is the Church of the Wind Goddess. In other words, Fer’s much awaited Ninril-sama’s church.
Of all the Goddesses within the pantheon, Ninril-sama has the smallest number of believers, with a correspondingly smaller church. Still, the Brixt church was not quite as miserable as the one in Hirschfield.
Anyway, because of the siz...

We still have a little bit more time at Brixt.
The mansion (castle, really) I rented still have a couple of days left which I plan to fully utilise before leaving for Carelina.
The plan for today was to visit some churches and orphanages per Tristan-san’s advice. I plan to dedicate the next day as offerings day for the pantheon. In fact, I had already collected most of the orders, however, there is one individual suffering from ...

After selling off the Drop items, we spent the next day resting.
The weather next day was particularly fine, so most of my familiars, except for Sui, were snoozing on the lawn.
Sui was bouncing around happily in the garden. I played with her for a while, but ended up napping against Fer’s fluffy fur.

The gluttonous quartet of Fer, Grandpa Gon, Dora-chan and Sui, were currently lounging in the living room after having eaten their fill of breakfast consisting of Gigantic Minotaur Bowls.
I must say, the cooking time was certainly faster than before. Possibly thanks to the ‘Solitary Chef’ title. I mean, my cooking skills had been improving lately and I never thought much about it, thinking that it was a natural result of many months of practice.
Well, calling me a chef is a bi...

In front of Grandpa Gon was a pile of freshly fried Karaage mountain. This was the second Karaage mountain by the one. The first one, soy sauce-based, had already been crunched down in record speed.
“Fufu, isn’t that right?”
I’m not sure why Fer was being so smug, since he did nothing to help me cook…

It was pretty easy to decide on the recipe.
Something meaty and garlicky with extra meat.
“It has to be the garlic steak, right?”
It was also simple to make and would be very satisfying for any meat, meat, meat fanciers.
The question now was, “What meat should I use?”
I cast a glance at my familiars. The taste of garlic will probably make them eat more. Also, I might just have to feed an Ancient Dragon. How much could dragons eat anyway?

When the Ancient Dragon turned its rugged face towards me, I could feel my balls shrinking away. Hey, don’t look down on me. Having a huge dragon staring directly at you will do that. Even Dora-chan had frozen in place.

It had a different feel compared to the other floors. Was it because it was the lowest floor?

The 46th Floor was, as we had feared and half-expected, a world of snow. Fields of glittering white as far as the eyes could see, just like the 45th Floor.
