Volume 5 Chapter 33 Honey
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Last night’s partner was Mizuki. I enjoyed watching her bouncing chest from below in a slightly unusual position—the “prayer pose” cowgirl. Lines like “Ahhh! ♡ My Lord, please forgive me! ♡” are truly classic for a legit Saint¹.
(Wait, that was just a delusion.)
I’m planning to treat Isaac today, but until the evening, it’s the usual dungeon exploration. In the morning, I had the three of them focus on party combat. Liese is now Level 17, Camilla is 16, and Ilse is 14; their coordination is finally coming together.
Since Liese and Ilse handle the offense and Camilla mainly provides support, we’re still lacking a dedicated Healer and a Tank. If I increase the number of slaves, the favorability of Yumiko-san and the other female Transferees² will likely plummet, so maybe I’ll have them team up with some regular adventurers-women only, of course. For safety’s sake, I’ll keep watch from the rear for a while.
For a Healer, a Priest is the obvious choice. But for a Tank? That usually means a Warrior, Shielder, or Swordsman type. A Heavy Warrior has such a low aptitude for magic, and their MP and MND stats are pitiful-it’s a bit of a headache. Plus, thanks to Otto, the whole class has a terrible image. Since they’ll likely need to team up with someone for the escort request to reach D-rank, I’ll keep an eye out for anyone who seems like a good fit.
* * *
Just like when I met Meeta recently, I’ve been harvesting honey from Killer Bee³ nests and experimenting with new recipes. The female Transferees must be starving for sweets by now, and I figure it’ll be a good “gift” for my three slaves, Gale’s Party, Regina-san, Clarissa-san, and Dietlinde-san. Nicola and Meeta would probably love it too. Gerta… well, she’s a total masochist, so she’d probably prefer something spicy. I’m not sure about Vanessa, but I’ll give some to everyone regardless.
Since cooking wasn’t exactly a hobby in my previous life, I struggled to figure out the recipes. If I were just pouring it over pancakes, I wouldn’t have to think, but the Yamato Nadeshiko Party could just go gather honey themselves if that was all it was. I had to add some value-true culinary craft. Without relying on my Appraisal Skills (because stealing intangible recipes feels like a cheap move), I relied on trial and error, library research, and taste-testing. The result? A spread of tarts, pies, honey-pickles, and honey mustard.
I had my three girls try the prototypes. Liese said, “This is delicious,” but she still looked like she’d rather have a steak. I recall some meat dishes use honey glazes, so I’ll try that next time. Camilla, on the other hand, was totally hooked. “It’s delicious!” she cried, practically melting over her first real taste of sweetness. In Japan, these kinds of snacks were everywhere, but here, it was a revelation. Ilse also loved it, though in a more childish way. She ate so much she spoiled her appetite for dinner and got a stern talking-to from Liese.
* * *
After finishing the dungeon run, I headed to the Guild to report the quest and turn in materials. I wanted to give some honey treats to Dietlinde-san, but doing it at the Guild Clerk counter felt like an invitation for Henriette to poke her nose in, so I held off. When I tracked down Isaac, I found Bruno from the Appraisal Department chatting with him.
”Hey, Bruno-san. Is Isaac free to head out today?”
”Yeah, no problems here,” Bruno replied.
”Are you and Isaac going out to play, Daisuke?” Bruno asked.
”Yeah. He’s been looking pretty stressed lately, so I thought I’d treat him to a ‘good shop’,” I said.
Since Bruno helped me out during the whole mess with Camilla, I figured I should invite him too. One more wouldn’t hurt.
”Why don’t you join us, Bruno-san?” I asked.
”Me? Well, I don’t have plans,” Bruno said.
”Then let’s meet at the entrance to the entertainment district after work. You good with that, Isaac?” I said.
”Understood,” Isaac said.
”I’m fine with that too,” Bruno replied.
Great. Time to bail before Henriette spots me.
* * *
With a little time to kill after the deliveries, I made the rounds with the honey dishes. The Yamato Nadeshiko Party was thrilled. Yumiko-san and Misaki-san, in particular, apparently have massive sweet teeth.
”I struggled so much with dieting in my old life!” Yumiko-san lamented.
”Sweets are the best for stress relief~♡” Misaki-san added. The rest of the party was all smiles.
I also brought some to Inquisitor Haida and the guard Karl, who helped out during the fight over Camilla. At the time, they refused any reward, claiming they were “just doing their jobs,” but they couldn’t say no to this. Honey is a luxury item in the shops, but since it’s homemade, they felt comfortable taking it. Both were wary at first, but once they realized it wasn’t a bribe, they softened up.
Inquisitor Haida is a married man and said he’d share it with his family-it seems he’s the head of a multi-wife household. Karl is also married, but a female guard at the station spotted him, so he was forced to “donate” some to the breakroom. Looks like women love sweets in this world, too. Stay strong, Karl.
* * *
”Ah, Daisuke-san! Hello~♪” Grete said.
I was just leaving the guard post when Grete called out to me. She’s a human girl from a rookie party called the Wyvern Slayers. With her orange short hair and expressive face, she’s the ultimate mood-maker.
”I’ve got some juicy info. Want to hear it?” Grete asked.
”Sure, I’ve got a minute,” I said.
A while back, I saved her group from a swarm of Ant-types on the fifth floor. As thanks, I had them pay me back five gold coins as a “success loan,” with the interest being “good information” whenever they found it. They’ve already paid back the gold, but they still drop tips every now and then. Since our social circles don’t overlap, she actually finds some interesting stuff.
”The short version: there’s a big request coming soon for C-rank adventurers and above. It looks like an escort mission to accompany the Knights on a monster subjugation raid. Apparently, it’s pretty far from the Capital,” Grete said.
”Heh, where’d you hear that?” I asked.
”I’ve got friends in the Knights, too~♪” Grete said.
”I see. Thanks, Grete,” I said.
Grete has some serious networking skills. It goes to show that rank and level aren’t the only ways to measure an adventurer. Dietlinde-san mentioned the subjugation raid too, so a formal nomination is likely on the way.
”You’re busy tonight, right? Let’s chat properly next time!♪” Grete said.
”Huh? I mean, yeah, but did you need something specific?” I asked.
”Hehehe, that’s a secret~♪” Grete said.
She flashed a mischievous grin and skipped off. Since she said next time is fine, I’ll leave it at that.

I met up with Isaac and Bruno, and we started the night at a “wholesome” spot to get some food in our systems.
”You call this place ‘wholesome’?” Isaac asked, eyeing the stage.
”Nobody’s stripping, and there aren’t girls sitting in your lap pouring drinks, right?” I said.
”I guess that’s true,” Isaac said.
The young Isaac doesn’t seem to frequent these places, but Bruno looks like he’s been around the block. This was a spot Alberto brought me to a year ago-lots of s*xy dancing and skimpy outfits, but no actual “service.” Over dinner, I listened to them vent.
Apparently, the Department Heads are all eccentric. The Dismantling Head is a stubborn craftsman, and the Appraisal Head is a total geek. Still, they’re better than Randolph, the Head of Mediation. I never realized how much weight a B-rank adventurer carried, but it turns out we’re roughly equal in status to a Department Head. Randolph, who treated me like “just another adventurer,” clearly didn’t realize who he was talking to. Especially since I’ve been bringing in high-grade materials lately, I’m contributing more to the Guild’s coffers than your average B-rank. It’s even giving Dietlinde-san’s reputation a boost. Good for her.
”Alright, now that we’re full, on to the second stop!” I said.
”Mmm, yeah…” Isaac said.
”Isaac, don’t be so stiff,” Bruno teased.
We headed to my usual spot, the Daydream (BSS)⁴ brothel. I let them pick their own girls. I didn’t want them accidentally picking Regina-san, but she hadn’t been called out yet anyway.
”I’ll go with her,” Bruno said, pointing out a girl and heading off without a second thought.
A man of action-decisive. She was a bit on the curvy side, not my type, but very popular here. Plumpness is a sign of wealth and status in this world, I suppose.
”What about you, Isaac?” I asked.
”……..” Isaac said.
Isaac was staring at the lineup like he’d been hit by a Petrify spell.
”Isaac?” I asked.
”A-Ah. Right. I’m good. I’ll… I’ll go with her,” Isaac said.
”Oh? Interesting choice,” I said.
He picked a girl with a very plain, rustic look. She was cute, sure, but Isaac seemed weirdly intense about it.
”She… she looks like a girl from my hometown,” Isaac muttered.
”I see. Well, enjoy yourself. Just don’t lose your head over it,” I said.
”I won’t,” Isaac said.
He gave a firm nod, but his (Mind) was clearly already in the room. The girls at Daydream are professionals; I’ll have to make sure he doesn’t become a regular who spends his life savings here.
Once they were settled, I had Regina-san called. Rita and Nora were nowhere to be seen-they’re the “PreCure” of this place, the top-tier duo, so they’re always booked.
”Welcome back. Thank you for choosing me again,” Regina-san said.
”Good evening, Regina-san. You look stunning as always,” I said.
We locked arms and headed to our private room. That familiar, soft, blissful sensation against my arm… heaven.
”So, what’s the mood tonight?” Regina-san asked.
”I’ve got a job tomorrow I really don’t want to do. I need you to spoil me,” I said.
Tomorrow is that lunch with Yuko. I’m dreading it. I could just flake, but I hate the idea of running away from her. I need to recharge my batteries with Regina-san so I can survive tomorrow and make it to my date with the Gale Party.
”Fufu, I suppose it is that time of the month again. Come here, then♡” Regina-san said.
Regina-san opened her arms and pulled me into her generous bosom. The sweet scent, the incredible softness, the smooth skin… it washed over me. She remembers my “Yuko-related” meltdowns. It’s a little pathetic that I rely on her like this, but I’m so grateful. I really need to settle things with Yuko eventually.
* * *
After Regina-san pampered me, I felt like a new man. We shared a gentle session and some long, sweet kisses. When I gave her the honey treats, she was thrilled. “Sweets are so rare here,” she smiled. I asked her to share some with Rita and Nora too, since we’re all friendly.
Liese, Camilla, and Ilse give me one kind of energy, and the Gale Party gives me another, but Regina-san is in a league of her own. I really hope I can bring her home soon.
As for Isaac, I bumped into him afterward. He looked like he’d reached some kind of spiritual enlightenment. No dangerous vibes there. I think he’ll be just fine.
