Chapter 623 – More Staff (Part 1)

Eguchi Ren: I heard that a famous K-pop idol (a shockingly handsome one!) enjoyed the anime. I will try uploading a little more often

Gumihou: Lots of things happening here. A long chapter, so enjoy it everyone~

Things had been a little off the norm thanks to a certain dragon-loving individual. However, I can’t blame him for everything. There were also the High Elves and the two drinking parties, the construction of the new dorm as well as the maisonette-style building, not to mention the visitors and finally, the offerings.

Knowing that my familiars would soon start pestering me about ‘hunting~ hunting~’ I decided to spend the next day relaxing especially since I had spent the night before making offerings.

The plan is to have a no-plan day.

“Hmph, what a pointless way to spend one’s life. It’s better to go hunting.”

“That does not sound at all productive, Master.”

““What is this ridiculous practice?””

Ads by PubFuture “”Zzz…””

“I’m going to enjoy today properly. Let me tell you now, if you disturb me, I might just have to take another leisure day tomorrow.”

Well, that soon shut them up.

“That’s unfair!”

“Oh no, my need for leisure time has increased. I might even have to rest tomorrow~” I said as I writhed on the world’s most comfortable lazy chair.

“Gununu,”

Thanks to this promise (threat) that I had secured back when I made the Easy-Bacon thing, I can now just refuse to go hunting if I don’t want to. Well, I could probably refuse at least twice before my familiars get too frustrated or annoyed.

While I would like to abuse this privilege and have a few more leisure days… it is not a good idea to force these overpowered gluttons to rest too long.

In fact, Fer and the rest were already talking about the ‘Meat Dungeon’ in a deliberately loud voice nearby. Sure, no one’s pestering me, but the very broad hints were incredibly annoying. Frankly, all that can think of whenever the Meat Dungeon was brought up was Demiurgos-sama’s Hoi Hoi-whatever, and the mysterious ‘extra floor’.

… Fer and the rest would probably be thrilled to find that extra floor, but let’s not tell them anything about it or I will never get any rest until we visit that dungeon.

Let’s think about something else.

That’s right, I shall be needing some new employees soon. Let’s head over to Radoslav Company. Thinking back, I’m really glad For Lambert-san’s introduction.

““Hey, are you going out? We’re going too!””

“Umu,”

“Master…”

“”Yay~!!””

“I guess you guys are really bored, huh?” I said as we made our way to the slave trader’s place. The neat, almost hidden sign was still where it was and this time, I confidently made my way to the door and knocked.

The door was opened by a large bald man who peered suspiciously at our party.

“Uh, hello, I was here before. I’m Mukouda by the way. We’re here again because we need more, ah, slaves…?”

The door silently shut and we were left waiting outside.

Not long afterwards, the door opened again and a smiling man appeared.

“Hello Radoslav-san,” I said in my most normal voice. For some reason, the sight of this man still intimidates me somewhat. [1] The disdain in his voice when I asked about ‘nice looking slave girls’ still haunts my nightmares sometimes…

“It has certainly been a long time, Mukouda-san. Your exploits have reached my corner of the world as well. And… I see that you have a new dragon familiar.”

There was an odd twitch to his mouth as he spoke. I guess Grandpa Gon really looks quite intimidating. The normally cool and shrewd Radoslav-san looked a little stressed.

“Hahaha…” I said, for the lack of anything to say.

“Oi, are we just going to stand around here?!” Fer snapped when the silence stretched a little too long.

The both of us jumped.

“Excuse me-” I said.

“No, no, it is my fault. Please, do step inside,”

[2] Radoslav-san led us to a different room this time. It was larger than the one before, I guess it was to accommodate Grandpa Gon too… which was thoughtful of him.

[2] “May I know the type of slaves you are looking for?” he asked politely.

[2] I wonder what he would say if I asked for a pretty maid… Ahem.

[2] “Uh, just general workers. A family would be great.”

[2] “I see, would these general workers be required to deal with goods, read contracts and make sales? Or are you looking for more labourers?”

[2] “The first one,” I said. “I have enough farmers and gardeners. Speaking of gardeners, I am very happy with Alban. So, thank you very much for introducing his family to me.”

[2] “I see, I believe I know just the family for you. Please wait a moment.” He turned to leave but paused and turned around with a smile I had never seen before.

[4] “Ahem, I understand you have been up to more than just Adventuring?”
