Chapter 317
(317) Interlude: Miri and Daijiro at that time
Translator: Tseirp
“Hey, Daijiro . What did you ask Jofre and Elize to do?”
A test flight was being carried out after the maintenance at the Mallegory dock was complete .
That said, it was not being done by Daijiro or Miri so they had time for idle talk .
“What is it?”
Daijiro asked as she poured wine into a champagne glass with ice .
Miri didn’t want to complain about why she was using a champagne glass instead of a wine glass by now and she didn’t want to talk about old topics on how ice shouldn’t be put into wine .
For cheaper wines drunk at home, it may be easier to chill them with ice after all .
That said, she wanted her to stop putting ice into high-class wine that cost 50,000 sense of a bottle . That was blasphemy to the craftsman .
She was a little annoyed but complaining now would stir up a hornet’s nest so she focused on listening to Daijiro’s reply .
“I asked them to retrieve the horn of a lizard . ”

“Horn of a lizard?”
On Earth, there were horned lizards as well . They were called Horned Lizards too . And in this world, there were lizard monsters with splendid horns as well .
But those horns were relatively cheap to purchase and it was not precious enough to warrant asking them to set off to buy it . They could even get it in Mallegory .
“That sounds like a novice errand ― but those two seem to have failed . Perhaps they picked up something outrageous . ”
Her relationship with Jofre and Elize was shallow but Miri accurately analyzed the two of them and predicted the results .
“Famiris’ intuition is still sharp . But that’s exactly the reason why I chose the two of them . ”
“Hmph . But I don’t know about that . If you ask them for a lizard horn, they might come back with a rabbit horn . ”

A rabbit horn was significantly cheaper than a lizard horn and its utility value was lower as well .
“I am waiting for the other opposite of that . Furthermore, don’t worry . Those two are loved by the gods . ”
“Gods … huh . ”
Miri said with annoyance .
She had only heard a little about Jofre and Elize’s journey until now .
From the hidden dungeon between Belasra and Florence, arriving at the Goddess statue room through luck alone, and escaping the infinitely appearing group of monsters in Ferruit without any injuries .
Even though the church released a wanted poster of them, they escaped without intentionally escaping and became the hero’s companion Daijiro’s subordinate just based on the fact that they were nearby .
They could certainly be said to be loved by the gods but thinking about the six Goddesses made Miri sigh a little .
Then, she looked down from the sky at the ground to the west .
Kyupilas Hill ― and the dominion of the Shiraraki Kingdom beyond it .
She could not shout out . She could not convey anything .
Even if she did, it would definitely not reach the person it is intended for .
” …… ”
Daijiro wordlessly smiled and tilted the champagne glass that only had ice remaining . The melted smaller chunks of ice clinked against the glass .
