Chapter 1400 - A Night Spent with Sieg ③
[As expected, the popular monsters were those cute enough to become popular.]
[Yes. All of them were so cute, and watching them makes me really happy.]
[I think you’d be able to afford it, so isn’t it fine if you get yourself a second pet?]
[You’re right. Unlike at that time in the Six Kings Festival, I don’t have to depend on Kaito-san to buy the centerpiece monsters, so that’s a very fascinating idea.]
It’s true that Sieg-san has a lot of money nowadays, so if it’s not something like the Petite Devis that one can’t get without connections, she should be able to buy it without any problems.
As expected, it would be rough for her to buy monsters of Bell’s level…… Well, Bell costs more than 2 billion, and if you take into account the fact that she’s a Special Individual, it wouldn’t be surprising if the price was more than double the purchase price, so Bell’s case was special but……
[If you were to get a second pet, what kind of monster would it be?]
[……That’s it. That’s what I’m most troubled with. There are too many monsters I want to keep as a pet, and it’s hard to narrow down…… But since I have Sela, I would prefer a more mature one in terms of personality. Sela is a pretty docile girl after all.]
[Certainly, Sela has this quiet and elegant image on her. She also seemed to go along with things at her pace.]
[She does feel rather laid-back. Recently though, it seemed like she had taken a liking to napping on Bell-chan’s back……]
Sela almost never cries and is very calm, and just as Sieg-san said, she feels quite laid-back and follows things through her pace.
[However, she gets along well with Lynn, so with her bright personality, wouldn’t she be alright?]
Lynn, who is also a Dragon just like Sela, has an energetic personality, so their personalities seemed to be in contrast with each other, but the two of them get along quite well and would usually hang out with each other like sisters, so I guess they have good personality compatibility.
[It’s true that she and Lynn-chan get along very well, but I think that’s because they have more than just personality chemistry…… I think it’s because Sela thinks of Lynn-chan as her older sister. Lynn-chan is also a Dragon and is older than her after all.]
[I see……]
[Well, if I were to keep a pet, it would be nice to have something other than a Dragon. Lili may be disappointed, but if I were to keep another Dragon in our place, Bell-chan would feel left out and she’d be pitiful.]
[Ahh, indeed…… If you want to match Bell, it might be good to have a Demonic Beast…… Bell is rather prideful though, so I don’t know what will happen if you get a pet of a species similar or close to hers.]
[I guess they’re going to be very hierarchical huh.]
Bell is quite prideful and responds completely differently to those who she was emotionally attached to than those she doesn’t, and in the first place, there are very few she was very emotionally attached to.
If I tell her to do something, she obediently listens, but if it’s not me or someone she’s not emotionally attached to, she basically ignores them.
She often growls at Luna-san, but I think she actually has a high degree of favorability for her compared to those she doesn’t even feel emotionally attached to. However, since Luna-san often teases me, it seems like Bell considers her as a ruffian.
And so, if I were to keep the same Demonic Beast-type monster as Sieg-san said, there’s a good chance that she will drive the hierarchy down on the new pet.
[In that case, it would seem that something other than Dragons or Demonic Beast-type monsters would be better.]
[A special-type monster like Slimes might be better. Slimes are also monsters with quite a lot of variety. Well, they’re not as good as Dragons, but various types of Slimes have been confirmed depending on the environment they live in, so it seems that some academic societies are discussing if there’s a need to create a classification for Slime types.]
[Heehhh…… Are all Slime-types friendly?]
[All Slime-types are basically docile and don’t harm people, but there are some that are inherently poisonous, so even if the Slime themselves doesn’t intend to attack, people who unintentionally touch them may be harmed.]
There are different varieties of Slimes huh…… Is there something like a Metal Slime too? That does sound interesting, so if I have the chance, I would like to see the various types of Slimes.
Just like that, we continued chatting, talking about what kind of monsters are compatible with our current pets and other matters, and after a certain amount of time had passed, the bottle of fruit wine was empty.
Since we drank one bottle together, Sieg-san hardly felt drunk, and as usual, I wasn’t drunk at all. However, this seemed like a good time to put an end to drinking.
[I guess it’s about time we put this to an end?]
[You’re right. I also don’t want to drink too much, so let’s call it a night.]
[Sieg-san, please go ahead and take a bath.]
[Thank you. Well then……]
Sieg-san nodded at my words and was about to move to the bathroom…… but she stopped along the way. It doesn’t seem like she forgot a change of clothes or her towel. Those things would probably be in her magic box, and there’s no way an inn as luxurious as this wouldn’t have towels in their dressing room.
As I was wondering about this, Sieg-san turned around and timidly looking at me, she softly spoke.
[……Ummm…… Since we’re at it…… How about we take a bath together?]
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [This is bad…… This is freaking bad…… This is clearly heading to a dangerous development. L- Like hell I will stay here like this! I’m gonna go back to my room……]
? ? ? : [Now, now, calm down. Isn’t this the part where the main event was about to start……]
Serious-senpai : [LET☆ME☆GO!]
