Isekai Yururi Kikou ~Raising Children While Being an Adventurer~ Chapter 82

Chapter 82

Because the alligator meat from yesterday was far easier to eat and more delicious than I thought, both I and the children liked it, so they decided to get even more alligator meat today .

I stopped them in panic . We already have plenty of alligator meat, I somehow persuaded them .

That being the case, we have promptly descended the staircase we have found today and started the capture of the twenty-second floor .

《Let’s get in high spirits and go~!》

「「Ohh~」」

『Nnaa~』

Because the twenty-second floor’s passage also had a knee-height water level, I put Allen and Elena on Joule, held the small Feat in my hands and we departed .

《Ah, alligator discovered~!》

「「Yay~ Joule, do your best~」」

《Here I go~!》

Just as we set out, a White Alligator has appeared and Joule who discovered it vigorously broke into a run .

《Tooh~!》

「Gyaahーーー!」

Joule easily trampled the White Alligator .

《Meat get~》

「「Get~」」

The dropped items are alligator meat and…… this is a topaz!

A rare drop jewel right from the start…… seriously, where did the low drop chance go to? Aren’t they dropping too much?

《Ah, another one discovered~!》

「「Meat~」」

Allen and Elena love sparkly things, but they were happier about the meat this time . Do they like the alligator meat that much?

「Next, Allen!」

「Elena too~」

《Sure~ Can you go from here? Shall I approach a little bit more?》

「「Is fine~ ――《Water Jet》」」

《Yay~ It’s meat again~》

「「Yay~」」

Before I e to myself, the children defeated an alligator and obtained meat again .

The meat won’t rot because it’s stored in the《Infinite Storage》, but we got enough meat to eat it regularly for a few years . But, while that may be true, the children would get angry at me if I sold it, right? No, they won’t get angry…… I feel like they would be sulking .

I would be troubled if they sulked, so as I thought, I can’t sell the alligator meat~

Ah, I could gift it to Cedric-san and others! The children wouldn’t tell me not to then .

But, I should confirm with them first .

「Oy~ Even if you get so much alligator meat, I won’t be able to use it all~ What do you say about gifting Cedric-san and others some?」

「「Un, gift~」」

《Okay~》

『Naa~』

I heard the words of approval from everyone . With this, the stock of the alligator meat will decrease .

Then, while thinking such――

《Then, we have to defeat more alligators!》

「「Ohh~」」

「………… Excuse me?」

It appears they intend to get even more alligator meat .

No, wait a moment! Even though we already have plenty of alligator meat, why are you set on obtaining even more!?

「「That way~」」

《Alright, here I go~》

Without being able to stop them, Allen, Elena, and Joule ran off to get more alligator meat .

Huh…… I feel like it would be useless even if I stopped them? Ah~……

『Naa~』

While dejected over the different plan, Feat snuggled up to close in order to fort me .

While being healed, I hastily followed after the children .

After that, we were alligator hunting all day long . Though I wanted to stop them…… I couldn’t .

Understandably, we obtained a massive quantity of alligator meat . Alligator meat of such quantity…… seriously, what to do……

◇ ◇ ◇

The next day after the second consecutive day of alligator hunting, we stepped on the twenty-third floor .

There, the knee-deep water level returned to the ankle depth .

It’s not necessary to let Allen and Elena ride Joule, but they said that they want Joule and Feat to go with us, so I decided to take them along .

Ah, Feat is being carried by me as usual though .

The journey was smooth and we favorably progressed . The reason being the children instantly killing all the monsters that appeared . My turn has quite not e yet, but I’m enduring, the children are enjoying themselves and I can’t barge in uninvited, after all~

While thinking such, we have discovered a treasure chest hidden along the path .

We haven’t found one that wasn’t in a hidden room, but it was magnificently placed in the middle of the path .

「「Treasure~…… huuh~?」」

Allen and Elena rushed up to the treasure chest, but they stopped in the middle for some reason .

「What’s wrong?」

《What, what?》

『Nnaa?』

「「Somewhat weird~?」」

「N?」

Allen and Elena pointed at the treasure chest and proclaimed it weird .

I immediately used【Appraisal】on the treasure chest . Doing that, I found that it’s a mimic――a monster that camouflaged itself as a treasure chest .

「That is a mimic . A monster」

「「Mimic~?」」

《A fake~?》

『Nnaa~?』

Even though it looks like a treasure chest until the moment you open it, the two noticed it well . As expected of them .

「Right . It’s a fake treasure chest . It pretends to be a treasure chest and assaults those who approach it」

『Naa~』

「N? Ah, Feat wants to defeat it? It would work with magic . Sure, go ahead Feat」

『Nnaa!』

When I give permission to Feat who wanted to defeat it, Feat immediately fired《Wind Cutter》and attacked the mimic . Then, with a bang, a white smoke escaped from the mimic and the pattern on the treasure chest changed .

It appears that this is a genuine treasure chest .

「Allen, Elena, want to open it?」

「「Un, will open~」」

Since it seemed that there are no more gimmicks, the two opened the chest and when I looked inside, there was a Transfer Magic Tool (simple) inside .

「「What is it~?」」

「A transfer magic tool」

Speaking simply, it’s that . That thing which the guild uses to send letters .

It’s a convenient thing, but it’s useless without the recognition code of the recipient .

However, should I sell it or hold onto it? It might eventually bee needed . Besides, if I got another magic tool of the same kind, I would be able to exchange with whomever I liked .

「「Transfer~?」」

「Right . Remember how we instantly moved from the hall to the tenth floor?」

「「Un!」」

「This can do the same thing . This fellow can only send letters or small things to a person with the same thing though」

「「《Ohh~》」」

『Nnaa~』

The children raised their voices of admiration .

Do Allen and Elena properly understand? But, I feel like Joule and Feat didn’t understand at all, but somehow raised their voices in consent . Well, Joule and Feat are monsters, so it might be possible that transfer equipment wasn’t necessary for their daily lives until now .

「Alright . Then, shall we keep going?」

「「Un! That way~」」

With Allen and Elena pointing out the direction, we soon discovered the staircase to the twenty-fourth floor .

We continued the capture and were able to find the staircase leading to the twenty-fifth floor .

That was all for the day . I decided to rest before descending .

By the way, alligator meat was used for today’s dinner . We ate it deep-fried with soy sauce . Un, it was immensely delicious .
