“I’m home.”

“Ah, welcome back, Master!”

ㅤ

After burning down the Adventurers Guild, I collected all the forces I had unleashed upon the city, and then had the Automata return to the dungeon.

That Automata was greeted by Leif with a big smile.

The word “Stockholm Syndrome” crossed my mind.

Or perhaps it reminded me of a cat snuggling up to its owner after being locked inside the house all day.

ㅤ

. . .Somehow, I feel like I’ve unintentionally trained it.

Well, that’s fine.

It’s a valuable asset to have a slave who harbors no hostility towards me.

ㅤ

Well, anyway.

It took a whole day to destroy the city, so I’m tired and it’s already late.

I had my meal while feeding Leif, ordered him to wipe his body with hot water and a towel while I was in the bath.

Once that was done, I went straight to bed to rest.

Good night.

ㅤ

And, for several days after that.

I continued to thoroughly destroy the nearby towns and villages.

So as to collect as much DP and experience as possible.

So that there would be as few witnesses as possible.

I killed them all without discrimination.

ㅤ

As a result, within less than a week, all the villages and towns within a radius of several tens of kilometers were gone, and my Lv increased by one.

In other words, just one Lv after all this. . .

It seems that because I have become a high Lv myself, it’s getting harder to level up.

The day when I can surpass the Demon Lord is far off.

ㅤ

Well, there’s nothing I can do about it.

I’ll have to go about it diligently.

With that in mind, let’s start with what I can do.

ㅤ

For starters, as I had thought before, I changed the Automata’s hair to blonde and slightly altered the design.

Then, I decided to completely renew the Automata’s equipment.

There are clothes, weapons, and armor that I looted from the town of Bordeaux, so there’s no need to use DP.

ㅤ

For now, I’ll stick with the Mithril Sword and Mithril Shield that I’ve been using for hero hunting.

Mithril is a high-ranking metal, though not as good as Orichalcum.

Even including what I took from the invaders and looted from the town, there were only a small number of Mithril weapons and armor.

In fact, it might be too much for the Automata, who is supposed to be an ordinary adventurer, to possess.

At least I think there won’t be any suspicion since I’ve colored it to look like steel using 1DP.

ㅤ

Next, clothes.

I had been dressing the Automata in the clothes that one of the invaders was wearing, but since I have a lot of clothes that I looted from the clothing store, I switched to those.

Since the Automata doesn’t care about the feel of the clothes, I chose based on looks and performance.

In particular, the appearance was tricky, and it took a lot of time because I was particular about it, like character creation in a game.

ㅤ

Likewise, I chose armor based on looks and performance.

Needless to say, it took time.

And when I thought I had made a really cool and cute outfit, I shouted “Oh no!” because it was obviously too conspicuous to walk around town.

ㅤ

And finally, the mask.

Since Shindou has seen the previous mask, I should change it.

Fortunately, I have a lot of masks that I stole from the weapon shop, so from now on, I just need to change to a different mask each time I’m identified.

ㅤ

In this way, after several hours, the Automata’s new outfit was completed.

ㅤ

“Wow! Master, it’s so cool!”

“I thought so.”

ㅤ

The evaluation of the judge was excellent.

A beautiful girl looks good in anything.

There is no sin in my beauty.

Those who get excited or jealous of my beauty are the ones who are sinful.

They should just die.

I mean, I’ll kill them.

ㅤ

Well, aside from that.

ㅤ

“Okay, next is your turn, Leif.”

“Eh? My turn too?”

“Yes.”

ㅤ

So, I played dress-up with Leif. . .that is, I arranged his equipment.

After all, I had registered as an adventurer, so there may be times when I would act as one from now on.

At those times, it would be unnatural to wear casual clothes as I have been.

I scrutinized Leif’s equipment for several hours.

ㅤ

“Um, Master. . .Isn’t it enough already. . .?”

“Don’t talk back.”

“Yes. . .”

ㅤ

The completed outfit was a safe choice, a wizard-like robe over a sleeveless shirt and shorts.

As for a weapon, a small wand about the size of a conductor’s baton.

It’s usually tucked into his belt, so it’s convenient to carry around.

However, given Leif’s apparent age, he might only be seen as a child playing wizard. . .Well, there’s nothing I can do about that.

Trying to make him look more mature would probably just be unsuitable.

ㅤ

And that was when I finished coordinating Leif’s outfit.

ㅤ

“Mamori. Are you awake?”

ㅤ

The Chaos-chan doll in the communication room with the Demon Lord started to speak.

That is, a communication from the Demon Lord has come in.

Is it about time for the next job?

It seems like it’s going to be busy.

ㅤ

So I activated the Mamori-chan doll to reply to the Demon Lord.
