13. The Empire of the Glans.

“Heh?”

 

 

Before I knew it, a dumbfounded sound escaped my lips.

Out of the blue, a skill? What the hell is this?

 

 

“It’s a skill, right?”

 

Kwang!!

 

 

Another loud noise echoed, and three or four robots were smashed to pieces.

 

“…What is?”

“That we like you.”

 

Hick!

 

And a huge explosion went off in my head too.

 

 

What the hell? Why all of a sudden…?

Did my favorability rating go down?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Favorability: 100

Status: Good

 

 

Inner thoughts: Tell me honestly, Eun-a…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hmm…the favorability is still the same…but she’s suddenly poking at the core.

What the hell is going on??

 

 

“Huh? What do you think?”

 

She clasps her hands behind her back and subtly approaches.

I feel an immense sense of pressure. Is it just my imagination?

 

“Tell me honestly. I won’t get mad.”

 

 

Nuna said to me soothingly.

Ah…I think I brought up the wrong topic.

 

 

“It’s obviously a skill.”

“You think it’s a skill no matter how you look at it, right?”

“Uh-huh.”

 

 

The guild members are whispering like crazy.

 

 

 

Actually, there’s nothing to fear. Nothing to be anxious about.

The game system derived from the dungeon is absolute (at least for now),

And within that, there’s the favorability system.

 

 

And currently, Nuna’s favorability…and Yuna-ssi’s favorability are also 100.

In this situation, nothing can happen even if something tries to happen.

 

 

However, that’s when thinking rationally…if you hear those words directly to your face, you can’t help but feel uneasy.

Besides, it’s Sora Nuna and Yuna-ssi of all people!

 

Of course, all women are precious, but those two in particular, along with Sonya-ssi, are especially dear to me.

 

 

What should I answer?

Should I honestly say it’s a skill?

Or should I say there’s no such thing?

 

 

“Yes. That’s right. It’s a skill.”

 

While my brain was pondering, my mouth answered on its own.

And very cheerfully and nonchalantly at that…

 

“Heeung~. I see….”

 

 

There was no serious reaction.

Sora Nuna and Yuna-ssi simply nodded as if they understood, and didn’t get angry or anything.

 

 

“Well, there’s no way a woman like me would fall for our little one.”

“That’s right. There’s no way I would…for this Han-nam.”

“….”

 

 

They just beat my bones with their words.

You’re really too much. Even so, I seduced Hayura Nuna, you know??? Of course, it was thanks to my abilities, but….

 

 

“Still, you told us honestly, huh?”

“There’s no point in hiding it.”

 

Yeah. This is better.

It would be bad if I lied while trying to be clever and disappointed them, right? Whether they can be disappointed even with a favorability of 100 or not is another matter…

 

Fortunately, the Nunas seem quite happy. Is it that good that I told them honestly? Honestly, if I were them, I’d punch me right away….

 

“But can I ask you one more thing?”

 

Sora Nuna is making me uneasy again for no reason.

 

“Is it active or passive?”

“….”

 

 

Indeed.

That’s what’s important.

Active or passive.

 

 

If it’s passive, then there’s nothing I can do about it.

But I….

Don’t I have both?

 

 

No…well…if I had to choose, it’s closer to passive. Sora Nuna was a case of naturally (?) rising, and Yuna-ssi rose all at once because of the quest…

 

 

“I have both…but it’s closer to passive.”

“Really? I thought it would definitely be active.”

“That’s right. I thought you would definitely have lewd intentions and toy with us.”

“Ahem…of course, there are people who do that…but from the start, my active skills aren’t that powerful. Appointing maids is the better of them. The rest are….”

 

It’s definitely better to have them than not, but they’re not very efficient.

 

“Okay. I’ll believe you.”

 

 

Nuna gave such a simple answer and then turned around abruptly.

The halter neck, which is quite revealing and slightly shows the line of her back, is still the best of the best.

 

-Kukung!

 

 

While I was talking with the Nunas, Ah-heuk, in robot form, appeared with a loud noise, having finished dealing with all the monsters.

The scene of a giant robot, easily over 10 meters tall, landing in a cool pose would be enough to elicit admiration if you saw it for the first time, but it’s nothing to me now.

 

 

[I’ve taken care of everything.]

“Okay. Good job.”

[Isn’t there any reward?]

“Reward? What reward?”

[I think some kind of prize is necessary since I completed the order excellently.]

“Hmm.”

 

This guy is strangely horny?

 

 

“You want a reward? You’re a shameless guy, aren’t you?”

[??! No, not that kind of reward!!!]

“You understand…so you’re a true pervert after all. The master is happy and pleased.”

[Ah. You’re the worst master-nim after all.]

 

Ah-heuk shook her robot head and returned to the Black Panther tank.

The scene of various mechanical parts opening and closing to become a tank was quite a sight.

She might get scouted by Hollywood later.

 

 

“Anyway, she took care of them spectacularly.”

 

 

Turning away from Ah-heuk and approaching the scene of the battle, everything was completely wrecked.

 

Even though the ceiling and walls were very spacious, there were a huge number of scratches, and needless to say, the floor where the Trans Mithrils were lying was even worse.

 

“What should I take from these guys as loot~”

 

 

As you can tell from their name, these guys are made of Mithril.

If it’s the Mithril I know, it’s probably the best metal on Earth.

 

“They’re Mithril lifeforms, right? Then isn’t the corpse itself loot?”

 

Sora Nuna said, pointing at the corpses.

 

“I can only know that after appraising them…but honestly, I think the corpse itself will be loot. They’re mostly made of the same material…actually, the result of the appraisal only determines the ‘most valuable loot’. Basically, all monster corpses are valuable.”

“Ah-ha.”

 

Indeed. Then I can just take the corpses themselves.

But how am I supposed to take those huge things?

 

 

[You can compress them.]

“Compress?”

[Yes.]

 

 

Ah-heuk transformed into a robot as if to demonstrate.

And then, thumping, she approached, picked up one of the corpsesㅡ.

 

-Kwajik!

 

 

And compressed it cheerfully.

Wow. I thought I was watching a press.

That huge corpse was compressed in an instant.

 

 

[You can make them like this and stack them up. It’s easy, right?]

“It’s easy, you idiot.”

[Idiot? The master-nim who couldn’t even think of such a simple thing is more of an idiot.]

“…Never mind.”

 

 

What an impudent pet.

 

 

“Then you and your children compress them one by one…okay! One of you transform into an inventory. That’ll work. It’s a super-giant inventory, so it’ll be able to carry enough.”

“Oh my, that’s good.”

 

Heh heh. A super-giant inventory! Isn’t this the proper way to utilize the Ah-heuk swarm?

 

 

[You’re going to use me as a porter?? This Trans Mithril???]

“If you don’t want to, you can make the others do it. You compress them. I just said that, didn’t you hear? Are you stupid? You are stupid, aren’t you?”

[I’m the one who controls the other ones anyway!]

“So what. Just hurry up and do it.”

[Waaa.]

 

 

Ah-heuk began to compress the corpses while muttering the word ‘worst’ like crazy.

Following her (?), the other three also played their respective roles. Two compressed the corpses, and the other one scanned the inventory and transformed into a giant inventory.

 

 

“Kya. This is the real performance. A giant inventory! I can stack tons of it at that level?”

 

 

No, really, I can stack tons of it.

In the first place, just one of those corpses weighs several tons, right?

 

 

“I know…this seems to be the best.”

“What are the four of us going to ride on the way back?”

“We can squeeze in together. Or walk.”

“….”

 

Yuna-ssi made a dumbfounded expression, but who cares. Either way, it’ll be ridiculously slow since it’s become an inventory.

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

.

Under the pretext of dungeon exploration, we wandered around various B-grade dungeons and were able to acquire a considerable amount of loot. First of all, in terms of weight…no, never mind. How long would it take to weigh all that?

 

Anyway, we obtained a tremendous amount of corpses, and one giant inventory wasn’t enough, so we transformed one more into an inventory.

Even if we only count the pure loot, it would probably be worth hundreds of millions of won. It’s Mithril after all.

 

 

We also obtained various other items…but honestly, there weren’t many useful equipment items. Even the better ones were better off being sold at the trading house, and there was nothing we could wear.

 

 

We’re already members of the Court, so wearing clothes made by Eun-ju is several times more efficient.

Maybe if a blacksmith or something joins later, we can also have custom weapons made?

 

 

Anyway, all the equipment is for disposal at the trading house…and one rather strange item came out.

This is also a document like the pet document….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tired of producing? Now leave it to the factory. With a high-quality artificial intelligence mass production system, material costs are down! Time is down! Performance remains the same~!

 

 

Grade: Legendary

Category: Permit

Usage Restriction: Member of the Court

 

 

[Effect]

 

 

Constructs a specialized production factory for ‘one’ of the production skills you possess. Construction can only be done within your ‘territory’ or ‘domain’, and the cost for construction varies depending on the scale.

 

 

-40% reduction in the amount of materials required for production.

-Extreme reduction in production time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is it.

In other words….

 

 

It’s perfect for Eun-ju…but the problem is that Eun-ju has neither territory nor domain. So I can’t build it….

What about me using it? First of all, I don’t have a territory either, and I don’t have any production skills even more so.

 

 

That’s why it’s ambiguous.

 

It would be good if Eun-ju used it, but there are restrictions.

 

 

“Should I declare a territory and give her a domain?”
