The Adventurer Reincarnated into Another World - 177-Chapter 11-11 Lock On

Oh, my God, he’s a terrible guy and I don’t know what you’re going to do tomorrow, if you don’t mind me asking.

After the meal was over, I was invited by Leon to play a board game in his room. And before I knew it, a round robin game had begun with all the men except Grandpa. Incidentally, Grandpa was sitting in his room enjoying a bottle of wine made in the Frontier County.

The game he was playing now was reversible. The game he was playing now was Reversi, which was the same in shape and style as in his previous life. They don’t know who developed it, but it’s almost certainly a reincarnation that is involved.

And in addition to reversies, there were also board games such as shogi, chess, and even things like the sukoroku human 0 game. While playing these games, I found out that I was the weakest at shogi and chess among the four of us. Well, it’s not that I’m weak, it’s just that I can’t stand up to Albert and Cain, so I’m battling for the bottom spot with Leon, who also keeps losing to them….

I’ve been playing a reversi tournament since a while ago, because even I’m such a good reversi player, but it’s really only better, and the odds of winning were not good.

Rion’s line just now was said in such a bottom deciding game.

”Well, for now, I guess it’s just sightseeing. While we’re at the Adventurer’s Guild, I’d like to see what kind of requests there are in the Haust Frontier County.”

The reason I’m going to the Adventurer’s Guild is to quickly show that me and the frontier aunt family aren’t on bad terms, so I don’t plan on actively accepting requests. However, if there are requests that only require me to fit the materials I have on hand, I’m thinking of accepting some of them. It’s not for money or the adventurer’s guild, it’s simply because I think accepting the request will show off my name in the guild’s record, making it more appealing. Well, it won’t be enough to prove that I’m on good terms with the Frontier Count family, but it will help to prove that I’m not bad.

”Good!　I won!

“d*mn it!　I lost!

The reversals, which continued as we talked, were settled by my victory. With this, Rion would be crowned the title of Reverse Triple Crown Champion, following chess and chess, plus Reversi.

Congratulations, Rion!

‘Ah!　Hey Cain, don’t litter my room with garbage!

It’s not garbage. It’s confetti to celebrate!

It’s garbage to me!

I had noticed that Cain had been sneaking around making something from earlier, but I didn’t think it was to prepare something like this.

‘But I had no idea that Temma wasn’t good at chess or chess.

Yeah. I didn’t think it would be a good match for Leon either.

You’re a good match for me, so you must be average or slightly above average.

‘If it was a card game, I think it would be a more decent match…’

It’s not clear to me why, but I am not able to anticipate the battlefield on the board. It’s a good idea to have a good idea of what to expect, but it’s not possible for Albert and Cain to read the future and move their pieces, and they lost 100 percent of their games with the two of them, and 80 percent of their games in the following game. By the way, Leon had a 100 percent loss rate in all of them. By the way, the two of us are almost evenly matched, and we’re always fighting in the mud.

“It’s possible, though. In the case of Tenma, isn’t it bad to have two people with exactly the same abilities fighting each other?　And maybe it’s partly because I’m mostly a solo adventurer?

What do you mean?

In other words, Temma’s commanding ability is low because he’s too good at it. In chess and chess games, military officers play chess to improve their commanding abilities, but Temma is a solo adventurer, so he doesn’t need to be in command. But Temma is a solo adventurer, so commanding ability is not necessary, and even if he does form a party, it is a small number of people, and there are only a few highly skilled people who can help him in a pinch, so his ability to read the future is not developed as much as it should be.

Cain says it in a questioning way, but he seems confident in his guess. I, myself, was partly convinced by Cain’s ideas, but partly unable to honestly admit it. Because.

That would suggest that the nature of Tenma is more of a brainiac!

I thought that they would say that. But it pisses me off to be told by Leon, the brainiest of them all… or so I thought.

”Well, there’s no way to compare the level of brainpower that defeated an ancient dragon zombie with the brainpower that was nearly killed by a wyvern.

Albert made a dumbfounded face and said something like that.

‘Even if he was a brainiac, though, he defeated an ancient dragon zombie, so Temma will definitely be talked about as a historical hero to posterity. 　If I’m not good at it, might I be talked about as the baggage that pulled our hero (Temma) down?

To begin with, Temma wasn’t asked to be a commander, so even if his abilities were a little less than that, he wouldn’t be considered a brainiac.

And following Cain’s words, Albert also came to my defense. With such a situation full of enemies, Rion lost his momentum and said, “The wyvern almost killed you guys! But he countered by saying, “I (I) and I (we) are strong in both chess and chess, unlike Rion. I thought that was a bit of a misguided answer to Leon’s words, but he crumbled at that answer.

”Well, let’s leave that one alone and play some other games, shall we?

Yeah. I’m getting bored with board games and they take up a lot of time, so let’s play cards.

So it was decided to invite Jeanne and the others as well.

”Well then, Rion. As a punishment for the losers, go talk to the ladies.

Tell him it’s not like there are any punishments.

The two of them ordered me to go call for the ladies, but Rion was still in shock from earlier, and he had a dazed, zombie-like gait.

As soon as Rion left, I asked him about what Cain had just said, because I felt uncomfortable with it.

‘Actually, Rion, I once invited the same girls from my class to a card game when we were in school, but I had an embarrassing past where everyone I invited suspected that there was something behind the scenes, and no one showed up.’

I’m sure Leon must have looked like a slut at that time. Well, we can’t say that we didn’t have those evil thoughts, but that’s just the kind of thing that easily shows on your face. Plus, there’s a lack of words.

It was a matter of fact. Hearing that, I felt a little uneasy, but I decided to believe their words that Leon had grown up a little since then, and that he wouldn’t fail so badly against someone he knew.

However, a few minutes later, the ones who came into the room were Jeanne and Aura, who looked frightened, Chris, who had an angry look on his face, and Rion and Amour, who were being dragged around by Chris’s collar.

As soon as I saw that, I thought, “Oh……..that guy Rion, he did something…….” and we regretted letting Rion go alone.

”Albert, Cain, Temma-kun…….what do you mean, let’s have fun without the old lady?”

We froze for a moment, not understanding what Chris-san was saying. The only time we were able to restart was when Chris-san, with a look of indignation on his face, stepped out of the way with his grip on the neck of Leon and Amour.

We felt that this was not good, so we began to desperately plead our case. As a result……..

Well, let’s get started!　Here, Cain, let’s get it out of the way!

We managed to clear up Chris-san’s misunderstanding. But that was a misunderstanding of the three of us, not that Rion and Amur were allowed to do so.

As for the two who were not allowed, they were forced to sit on their haunches in the corridor. Moreover, they are made to sit in a position where they can be seen through the open door, so they can’t sneakily collapse their legs.

By the way, the reason why Chris-san was so angry was because Rion told Amur, “We’re going to have to play Baba out! He said it was because he laughed so hard. It was because he was laughing so hard that we could only call him an idiot.

By the way, Baba-drew was considered a bad omen, so we decided to change the rule to Jiji-drew.

It was decided to change the rules of the game without jibberish. You’ve been strong against Amur lately, haven’t you?

Cain, who had finished handing out the cards, was talking to Chris-san while preparing his own cards. It is true that Amour, who has a selfish side, seems to be listening to Chris-san comparatively…well, it’s only ‘comparatively’, so there are many things that he can’t control, but even so, I think it’s amazing that he can make her listen to what he says. Incidentally, of all the people in the King’s Capital, Amour listens to his grandfather the most, followed by Maria-sama and Chris-san.

Oh, it’s an easy thing to do. When Amur gets carried away, I just say one word to him: ‘I’m going to tell Hana-san about it. Hana-san and I were paired up for a martial arts tournament, and we were talking about exchanging letters in the future. In the letter, she said, “If Amur does something bad, let me know. If he does, you must consider taking him back to the South. Well, I’m not an ogre, so I wasn’t going to let you know as long as you didn’t commit any crimes, but if it was too much for me, I’d have to let Hana-san know….hey?

‘I’m sorry, Mister Chris. Please don’t let your mother know.

Chris-san glanced at Amur at the end, and Amur immediately started apologizing on his knees. If he didn’t like being taken back to the South so much, he shouldn’t have made fun of Chris-san.

”Conditional reflexes are so scary…”

It seems that Amur has a gene in him that he has to make fun of Chris. Chris-san seemed dumbfounded by that answer, and Amour’s seat on the floor was extended. Incidentally, during the exchange between the two men, Leon was completely silent. The reason for this was because his legs were numb and he didn’t have time to open his mouth.

”Well, there’s no point in worrying about those two. Let’s get on with it.

Chris-san said so, and so the gigi-removal started, but all the while Chris-san’s watchful eyes were on the two men in the hallway. Unaware of this, Rion would occasionally move to shift his foot position, but every time he did so, Chris-san would glare at him. Amur seemed to have more room to spare compared to Rion, but even so, sitting upright for long periods of time seemed to be difficult.

Woohoo!

Leon, shut up!

He would sacrifice Rion and create a moment to make his own leg easier. By the way, the way it was done was that Amur would make it by tapping and tickling Rion’s leg with his tail. Well, Chris-san found out a few times and got a hard time.

‘You’re out of it!’

After a few jizzercises, they were now holding a millionaire’s tournament. It started because he had left the door open and his voice echoed in the corridor, and his grandfather came to hear him.

When the grandfather came, Chris suggested that they should not play Jiji-pulling, so they decided to play with five players and the commoners took turns.

I’m up to riches!

Unlike chess or chess, the millionaire applied reversible rules such as ‘Revolution’ and ‘eight cuts’, so even Jeanne and Aura, who said they weren’t good at board games, were able to aim for the top spot. By the way, since Grandpa was sitting on the millionaire or the richest man from earlier, and Aura, for some reason, the poorest of the poor only became the richest man, these two have never been replaced.

”Um~……..how long are we going to sit on the floor…….”

‘Ah!　Cain, you’re too late to use the revolution!

Excuse me. Temma, I’ll take your place.

Like this, Chris-san and Cain have been ignoring Leon’s questions from earlier. By the way, Amur seems to have devised a way to make sitting upright for a long time easier by supporting his buttocks with his tail. Currently, he is sleeping quietly next to the suffering Leon.

Hmm?　I think it’s time to call it a day. Jeanne is on the edge of her seat.

Grandpa was right, Jeanne, who was waiting for her turn, was rowing the boat.

‘Oh, it’s that time already. Then shall we break up?　Aura, take Jeanne with you. Amour, wake up.

The women said they were going to return first, so the men briefly cleaned up Leon’s room before returning. While they were cleaning up, they said, “Amour!　Your room is not that way! I heard a voice say, “I’m sorry. It was probably because Amur was pretending to be sleepy and trying to sneak into my room.

‘Oh, wow!　Albert, Cain….help me, I can’t get up….

Rion was freed now that Chris-san was gone, but his legs were so numb that he couldn’t seem to stand, and he was screaming weirdly and asking the two for help.

It can’t be helped. Cain, take that side. We’ll carry it together.

Okay.

I’m sorry, that’s a big help… but wait a minute!　Don’t drag it out!　She said her feet are killing her!　A-ga-ga-ga-ga!

They dragged themselves to the bed with great vigor, holding Rion by his side. Rion screamed every time his numb legs hit the floor steps and chairs. His voice was so loud that Chris-san, who was supposed to have left, came back and scolded the three of them. I think that’s what attracted Edilia’s attention, Chris-san. In fact, while Chris-san was scolding the three of us, Edilia-san came over and nodded repeatedly as she watched Chris-san secretly scolding the three of us.

”Ah!　Mr. Temma, let me have the Shiroumaru!

After getting angry at the three of us, Chris remembered and asked to borrow Shiroumaru. Shiroumaru himself missed Chris-san, so he didn’t mind, but he didn’t understand what it was for.

Is it for a pillow?

‘That’s part of it, but this is for you, Temma.

I was a little surprised when I half-jokingly said it was a cuddle and was instantly affirmed, but my doubts won out when he said it was more for me.

‘Look, you can’t say that Amur won’t sneak into Temma-kun’s room while I’m asleep. I’d like to think that he wouldn’t break the lock to get in, but since Amur can sometimes act unexpectedly… I want to take Shiroumaru to his room to counteract that.

Even if Amur were to move wildly, he would not be a match for a real animal (demon).

‘Thanks. Then let’s go, Shiroumaru!

“Woof.

‘Huh?　Where are you going, Shiroumaru?　……..Oh, the bathroom. I’ll have to get that done before I go to bed.

Shiroumaru called out from his bag and jumped out of the window as if he had followed Chris into the hallway. For a moment, Chris-san let out an impatient voice, but after seeing Shiroumaru’s actions, he was satisfied.

‘For now, I’m just going to spray water on him. Shiroumar, I want you to keep an eye on Amur.

Won!

I’m not sure if he really understands, but Shiroumaru gave a bark and then followed Chris properly this time.

‘Good night then.’

After greeting my grandfathers, I went to the bathroom and then went back to my room. Now that I’ve got the keys tightly in place and I can ask Slarin to take care of Amur, all I have to do is sleep until morning.

‘Solomon. Don’t get caught up in the wrong snack and unlock the door.

Swoosh!

Outrageous! I squirmed under the covers, listening to Solomon’s cries of protest.
