Being Able to Edit Skills in Another World, I Gained OP Waifus

The day after we left the northern town of Hermilt, we arrived safely at the resort of Mishlila.

We have to unload water and food, so we're stopping here today and tomorrow. What are you all going to do?

We're going to go see a few people.

You know him?

The one in the mountains.

If you're on the ...... mountain, you won't be able to get back in two days. ......

I'll take care of it. Then!

We left the Mishlila recreation area and went to the street.

We had to make sure it was clear.

"Aine, please.

I got it. Activate Sister's Treasure Chest. Come on out, Lord Death and Chariot!

"Here I am, that I am!

Gosh.

From Aine's storage skills, the box-shaped Lord Death and Chariot appeared.

And then...

"Transformation, that it is!

One of the party members struck a cool pose at the same time as Lord Death's transformation.

It was so cool that Lila's nose bled.

Then we connected the horse-shaped Lord Death to the chariot and put in a split Elder Slime.

We're ready.

Off we go!

「「「「「 oh! 」」」」」

We went all the way to the Labyrinth of Our Lady.

...... It didn't take you more than two hours.

'It's really great. Mr. Death and Chariot.

The rough stuff is no problem for me. It's amazing.

You wouldn't believe the speed of six people.

As expected of a demon armor.

I'm impressed. ......

It's really amazing, Lord Death and Chariot.

If it were normal, it would take half a day to get from the recreation area to the mountain where the saintly lady is.

I mean, if the 'Ancient Elf' has this level of technology, they should use it for a comfortable life, not to counter the Demon King. It's just a waste of technology.

''If you think about it in a common sense, that's more beneficial.

No, I'm starting to lose my common sense.

Lila, you're blue in the face.　Do you suffer from car sickness?

"I'm techno drunk: ...... so how can you all look at all this superb technology and skill and be normal?

Get used to it, Mr. Lila.

Raphilia popped, and tapped Lila on the shoulder.

'When you're with your master, this becomes more and more normal and pleasant, you know.

'Hmm. If you say so, Mr. Elf, you're right!

Lila nodded.

...... I think you're being too honest with Raphilia, Lila.

Then we parked Lord Death and Chariot at the foot of the mountain.

It's not polite to visit so many people at once, so it's just me, Lila and Rafilia going to the holy woman's.

Everyone else was going to take a break at the foot of the mountain.

''Se-no!''

Rafilia and I stood in front of the cave, talking in unison.

Delilirah-san, he's coming!

"Come on!　I've been waiting for you: ────!

Boom!

The rock that had been blocking the entrance crumbled, revealing a saintly golem.

This time it's not figure size. It's life-size.

What's more, she's smashing the rock with a punch and raising her fist to the sky with a scowl on her face. It's so cool.

It's too late, you know. It's getting late, isn't it? I've been waiting for you, Nagi. I sent you a message and you haven't been able to get it in yet!

'The Message Golem'?

'That's right. I sent it to Nagi's house at the sanatorium, but it hasn't come for a long time. Delilira-san, I thought you didn't like me. ......

She looks sad and depressed, saint.

Doesn't the tension rise and fall too much, saintly woman?

'Could it be that you forgot to tell me the other day that you're going on a vacation?

'...... Sorry, I heard that. I forgot it was Mr. Delilira.

The saintly lady clapped her hands with a pop.

'No, that's right, that's right. I'm sorry. I was so absorbed in making magic items for a while that my memory just flew off. So you didn't hear Delilira-san's message then?''

'Yes. What's the story on the saint's side?

''It's nothing important. But first, I need to know what you want to do with Nagi-kun.

Okay. Raphilia, Lila, come here.

I call out, and Raphilia and Lila step forward.

They both look at the saint and bow.

''Well, well, well, it's been a long time, Rafilia-kun. Are you ...... first time we've met?''

My name is Lila Tinotas. I've heard rumors about you, Your Highness.

"...... Oh. You're not alone. Do you have two souls?

How do you know?

As expected of a saint.

You didn't say anything, but you noticed Uriera-san's presence.

"Well, you know. After all, Delilira is a saint!　Yes, sir!

""Oh, ────."

Koto, koto, koto.

Me, Raphilia, Lila, and Mr. Work Golem joined in the applause.

That's my girl. Dependable.

''Then we'll have to talk fast. As a matter of fact, this Lila-san has the soul of a person from the 'Ancient Elle' who died a long time ago. But ...... that person has been bound by a mission for a long time, and even now that he's been freed, he can't move freely.

She's my sister.

It's my own ancestor.

So I was wondering if you could lend me your vessel to put the soul in.

'...... sounds complicated, can you elaborate on that?'

Yes, sir.

I've decided to blurt it all out to the Lady.

That Raphilia is the 'Ancient Elleleitai'.

That her sister, Uriella-Grace.

That Uriella-san woke up before Rafilia and was bound to her mission even after she died.

That we found Lord Death in the ruins of the Ancient Elves. The identity of the Demon King.

That there was a genius from the Ancient Elves who planned it all.

The saint was listening to my explanation with her arms folded.

'...... I see, that's what happened.'

─ After I finished, he nodded with a serious face.

'An ancient elf, huh? I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this. So Nagi-kun and the others thwarted that ambition.

That's the way it is.

"So you want to give Uriera-san, who's been tied up with the mission all these years, a free body to move around in?

Yes. Could you, please, my saint?

'Don't underestimate this Delilira-san. How could you refuse to cooperate with such a story?　No, no!''

The saint clapped her hands.

'Good!　Let's make a golem that this Mr. Delilira can put his soul in!　The best of the best!

'Thank you. Saints.

...... Thanks for the help.

Thank you so much .......

Raphilia looked serious, and Lila bowed her head in tears.

'But are you sure?'

"What?

Of course we are going to pay you, but we were thinking of borrowing the golem that Your Highness hasn't been using. But then I was told that she would make a top quality product for us.

I don't mind. This is Delilah's decision.

The saintly woman puffed out her chest.

''If such a plan has been carried out in the past, Delilira-san is no stranger to this. It's possible that the Demon King's Plan could have had something to do with Delilirah's being made a saint. I can't leave you alone.''

The ancient elves had been planning to be involved with the 'Demon King' since long ago.

If that's the case, even the fact that the Saintess was given the role of a saint before her death might have something to do with it. So it's not a personal matter...

But if that's the case...

I suppose my being summoned from another world might have something to do with it.

'Well. Delilira-san thinks about it sometimes. 'What would have happened if Nagi-kun had been on the side of the heroes?'

What if I was on the side of the hero?

"Yes. If only you were the mission-minded type, manipulating your Inochiki skills and working for the king...'' Maybe Delilira's labyrinth would have been taken over by brave men and used to counter the demon king. I think it's really, really good that you weren't that kind of person.'

...... If I were the mission-driven type.

............ I can't imagine it at all.

But if I wore a cool sword and armor and worked for the king with all the people I was summoned to work for at the same time...

The secret of the "Ability Rebuild" is also passed on to the king, and he might use it to provide slaves.

The skills of those children will be forcibly rewritten - creating an army of cheat heroes .......

If I send those kids to the nobility to work for the black world...

Geez.

I felt a chill run through me.

'Ma, Master?　Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine. It was just a bad idea.

No, seriously, I want a break (kanbei).

I don't like the idea of me being a black employer and using my slaves ...... just to imagine it.

In such a situation, it's better to create a self-destructive skill with 'Ability Rebuild 《Skill Structure》' and annihilate the world.

' ...... Please don't say nasty things. Saintess.

'I'm sorry, ....... You didn't like that.

'I'm just who I am, and I'm grateful to have met you all. Really.

Maybe the future was just like the one the saint mentioned.

It's a good thing that you're able to get your hands on a few of them.

...... I really should be grateful for the opportunity to meet you all .......

It's a good idea to make a golem for Uriela-san.　Of course, I'll pay you.

''I see, so as a reward, I'll ask you to do me a favor, Delilira-san!

What's this about?

The first one. One more thing, you'll need it to make a golem for Uriella. I need Rafilia, who is also an 'Ancient Elle', to help me with this. Uriella and Rafilia should have the same soul shape. I'll make a golem based on Rafilia-kun's example. ''I'll make a golem based on Rafilia-kun.

Rafilia, could you do me a favor?

'Of course, sir, but ...... can I keep my underwear on?'

Raphilia looked at me for some reason and said.

"I've decided that I won't expose my bare skin to anyone but my master!

'...... No, Delilira, you don't have any taste for looking at your naked body either, do you?

'Of course. If the master can be present, he can be present at ...... otherwise .......

'I told you, it's okay to wear clothes. It's all about the soul!

Really? That's too bad.

Raphilia, stop blushing when you glance at me.

"I just need you to bring Cecil-kun to me.

The saint said.

'It's hard to work alone. I need her help with my magic.'

'Okay. I'll check with him, but I'm sure he'll be fine.

''Cecil-kun, in addition to helping me make a golem, I have one other favor to ask of you.

The saint looked down for a moment and then

'...... I want her to carry on the skills and knowledge of Ms. Delilira,'

............ skills and knowledge?

'You see, Delilira, you don't know how long you're going to be in this world. She wants to pass on her skills and knowledge to the next generation. She looks a lot like the demon Aristia, and she would be a perfect fit. Can I ask her to do that?''

I just got a message back saying it's okay.

"I see. Good.

My Lady.

What is it? Nagi-kun.

I hope you live long enough.

"Delilira, you're already dead!

'I'm sorry, I made a mistake. Please stay in this world until you're comfortable.

I said.

'My saint is my dearest friend in this world. Someone who knows our secrets and still gets along with us is precious to me. So, if you can, ...... you can stay with me forever.

"Hmmm... You won't get paid for saying that!

Your Highness. My face is all red.

'Nah, my God. I can't believe you can make a golem with such a rich expression: ....... This would make your ancestors happy!　I'm going to do my best to be useful to you, too!

"...... Hmmm.

The saint turned to the side.

Raphilia clapped her hands and Lila is touched.

Really, the saint is very important to us. If we could, we'd like to ...... be with you forever.

The third thing I would like to ask. Will you ask me to run an errand for you?

That's fine. Who and what do you want me to deliver?

"To Letitia-kun. "I want you to give this sword and shield to Letitia-kun.

The golem saint waved her hand.

A voice called out from the depths of the labyrinth, 'Koto Koto,' and the work golems came over.

I've actually been making armor for Letitia-kun for some time now. This was finally completed.

Is this the magic item you've been working on?

'That's right. Delilira-san's masterpiece.

What the working golems brought with them was a slender sword and a circular shield (round shield).

The slender sword has a mesh at the grip, perhaps to reduce the weight of the sword. The round shield has a chain on it. I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about it.

Of course, you can give them to me. But why is this for Letitia?

''Look, Rita-kun and Leticia-kun easily broke through the small-group labyrinth before, remember?

I see you have .......

As I recall, it was shortly before we fought The Sleeping Goblin.

I came to introduce Letitia to the Saintess, and that's when Rita and Letitia challenged the new labyrinth.

'At that time, Delilira-san was very frustrated when the labyrinth was captured so quickly. Then I thought of something. If you regret being attacked, you shouldn't regret being attacked.

The saintly lady gulped and clenched her fists.

She was a golem on the outside, but she had a very serious expression on her face.

''What do you mean by ......? ''Saintess.''

'It's simple. If Delilira-san strengthens Letitia-kun, even if he breaks through the labyrinth, it's still Delilira-san's fault, isn't it!　I've broken through myself, I don't regret it!'

............ Yes?

I'm sorry, Your Holiness. I'm not sure.

"See? Nagi-kun's party uses a lot of incompetent skills.　If the labyrinth is broken through with that inquisitive skill, that means you've lost to Nagi-kun. But if you broke through the labyrinth with the armor that Delilira-san gave you, ...... then wouldn't you be ...... regretful?''

Okay. I see.

By the way, the reason I chose Leticia-kun is because Rita-kun doesn't use any armor. And the only person who isn't Nagi's slave is Leticia.

That's what I'm talking about. You're looking at it right. Saint.

''If you're giving Leticia some armor, I'd be happy too.

'Besides, Miss Delilira likes her. For a nobleman, there's no need for bravado, is there?　She's also full of justice. Mr. Delilira thinks that someone like her should be the king.'

That's funny. Me too.

Yeah.

Of course.

I think so, too.

'I'm not sure about myself. If the saint says so.

Me, Saintess, Raphilia and Lila-san nod to each other.

Besides, Leticia has a tendency to go into danger on her own.

There's a limit to how much I can strengthen Leticia, who isn't under a master-slave contract.

If the saint gives you a sword and shield, you can rest assured.

''I understand. I will take responsibility for this sword and shield and deliver them to Leticia.

Thank you. You'll see what happens when you use it.

But is that how you want to be paid?　I don't think it's benefiting the saints at all: ......?

My request was to borrow a golem to hold Uriella-Grace's soul.

In response, the Saintess said she would make a special vessel for me.

My reward is to have Cecil and Raphilia help me and deliver the item to Leticia.

...... It's to our advantage after all.

''As for me, I'd like to do what the saintly lady wants me to do,''

I'll owe you that.

The saint chuckled.

''And you know what, this is also a good enough reward, right?

...... Really?

'Delilira-san leaves behind a living testimony of herself through Cecil and Rafilia-kun. Not as a role-bound saint, but just as Delilira-san. That's not a benefit, that's what. Hmph.''

Saying that, the saintly lady stretched her chest.

I'm not even close to .......

It seems like you think you're losing to us, but we're no match for you, either.

In the end, that's how we are balanced with Saint Saint Mary's.

My Lady.

Yes, Nagi.

Everyone at the foot of the mountain has contacted us. We've laid out a picnic sheet and made a cup of tea, and they'd like to invite Our Lady to come too. I know she won't be able to drink, but just to feel better.

"Great. I'm gonna buy you a drink every now and then.

So, we came down the mountain...

We spent a moment of carefree tea time.

I'll take care of Cecil, Rafilia and Laila. I'll take care of Cecil, Rafilia and Laila-kun.

Take good care of Cecil and the others.

Thank you for coming to tea with me, saint.

Please take care of my master.

We'll be back.

After tea time was over, we left the saints.

For a while, we separated from Cecil and Rafilia.

And then we were back on Lord Death's chariot, heading for the port of our retreat.

Kasheen, shakin', shita-tah!

"Wait a minute. Isn't that awesome!　I didn't hear it was that great of an item!

「「「「 So excuse me then!　Saints! 」」」」

"Fast!　Unbelievably fast!　That's a challenge for you, Delilira!　OK. I'll accept it. ────!

The voice of the saintly lady is moving away.

Leaving the driving to Lord Death, me, Aine, Iris and Cutlass wave to Cecil and the others.

As it is, we are once again at the 'retreat Mishlila'.

After spending two nights at the villa, the next morning we returned to the port city of Ilgafa.

...... Oh?　I have a letter from my father, sir.

When I returned to Ilgafa's house, I found a small piece of parchment tucked under the door.

It was addressed to Iris. The sender is the lord of Irgafa - Iris's father.

"May I see you for a moment, brother?

Okay. I want to thank you for giving me a lift too.

All right. I'll come with you.

Leaving the house to Aine and Cutlass, me and Iris headed to the Ilgafa lord's house.

''Oh!　You're back. Iris. And you, my brave sea dragon.

I'm back. Father.

'Thank you for sending the ship out. My lord.

This is the parlor of the Ilgafa lord's house.

Iris and I are facing the Ilgafa lord house across the table.

''I understand you have a request for Iris, what is it?

...... No, I actually had business with Iris and Lady 'Sea Dragon Hero'. Just in time.

The lord had a slightly blue face.

What is it? I wonder if there was another problem related to a brave man.

"I would like to ask Iris and 'Sea Dragon Hero' to visit you: ......

Yes. Father." "Yes, sir?

Have you heard about the strange disease that is prevalent in the commercial city of Metekal from 'Kerkator the Sea Dragon'?

...... strange disease?

No, ...... separately, "Sea Dragon Kerkator" didn't say that.

The Saintess didn't say that the disease was prevalent either. Saintess, I'm a specialist.

''What exactly do you mean by a strange disease?''

I've never seen one of these, but I've seen them, and when they come into contact with them, they just lash out...

Suddenly, there was a loud noise.

Outside the window. It's from the town.

At the same time, I can also hear people screaming.

''My lord!　Oh, my God!　I think we may have contracted the freak disease...

What?

'Look out the window!　The streets of the city...

Me, Iris, and the lord rushed to the window.

Here, the Irgafa Lordship is on high ground. From here, we could look down on the town.

There were screams in the main street of the town. The town's main street, usually lined with stalls, where someone was standing with a weapon. The guards and the people of the town are looking at it from a distance.

I wonder.

It's a strange feeling. That person with the weapon is a strange disease──?

Do you want a demon king?

The man shouted.

''Do you want the Demon King and his minions?　The Demon King's army is gone!

.................. eh.

""...... nannyare"

'I do not understand. I'm told that there are a number of people in the Metecal area who are suddenly making the same kind of noises and going wild.

The lord said and shook his head.

'I don't know what caused it. Just .......

"Just?

The men from Metecar say that over there they call it 'Demon King Deficiency Syndrome'.

...... 'Demon King Deficiency Disease'.

It's a disease that is not highly contagious, but those who are infected with it lash out ...... and are in trouble. I was wondering if you know anything about it, "Hero of the Sea Dragon" ......

The lord said that with a slump of his shoulders.
