"Ah, I'm sorry," the girl, who seemed to know in advance that she was being rude, apologized in advance, "Is this room not being monitored by high-level officials of the empire or any spy agency?"
Are you worried about this? It is true that too high a reputation will attract prying eyes. Fluder, who is very aware of this in the empire, looked slightly better and said, "No."
"I just believe you." The girl took off a ring on her hand, and then her image changed slightly——
The ears are attached to both sides of the head like two amphibian webs, which is indeed a characteristic of the sea race, but the lower body still has the same legs as humans.
She tapped the jewelry on her belt again with her fingers, and her lower body turned into a fish tail with blue scales.
"I am Princess Wakati of the mermaid tribe, please enlighten me."
"Have you just reached the fifth level? It's really good at such a young age. Is she originally a mermaid? She is indeed a race that is better at magic than humans." Fluder thought, he himself had no prejudice against foreign races, so why not say
He envied races that were better at magic.
In fact, the demi-human race is not just a physically stronger and more ferocious appearance than humans in the legends of ordinary people. There are also some demi-humans whose appearance is closer to humans. There are also demi-humans who have worse physical talents than humans and better magical talents.
people.
Demi-humans who have better magical talents or are better at special abilities similar to magic, representatives of which include snake-like people, mermaids, blue maggots, demons, elf ghosts, snake kings, etc.
In fact, the team of "Thirteen Heroes" actually refers to the thirteen people in the human race, and the number is even larger when other races are included. Although only the thirteen people are currently advertised - there is a long distance between the ordinary people and the heroes who fight everywhere.
Most of them are invisible. In another generation, those non-human heroes will probably fade out of human sight.
But Fluder still understands the actual composition of the "Thirteen Heroes".
Since the Theocracy claims that the "Thirteen Heroes" are all human beings, it is indeed inappropriate for this mermaid lady to come here exactly as she is without taking any protective measures.
After Fluder understood what he thought, the girl seemed to activate the magic item on her belt to turn her lower body into legs again, and the shoes and socks that had just disappeared out of thin air also reappeared.
"I'm sorry." Realizing that he seemed to be rude as he had been staring at the girl, Fluder bowed his head and apologized, and then said, "So, why are you here, your highness, the mermaid princess?" Even though he had asked, it was still polite to ask.
one time.
Who knows, after hearing such a question, Princess Wakati sighed deeply and said: "It seems that I am deeply misunderstood every time. My name is 'Princess Wakati (stick reading)', not
Your Royal Highness, the princess of some royal family."
The person who originally wanted to put "Princess" in his name must be so arrogant, but Fluder found that when the other person read slowly, his mouth shape did not match what he heard, and everyone in this world was shocked.
With a food called translation konjac, the language will be automatically translated and then conveyed to the other party. However, mistranslation may occur if there is a difference in knowledge and concepts.
In other words, in front of foreigners, this girl has never been able to convey her name correctly?
However, the girl temporarily recognized as Princess Wakati no longer intends to continue this topic——
"About this," the mermaid girl took out two books from her infinite backpack and placed them on the table. One has a simple appearance and is very thin; the other has a cover as strange and thick as a devil's book. "The captain will take us to Eight
When I visited King Yu, I got some books about magic, but my interpretation was a little..."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a strange sound coming from Fluder's mouth. Fluder grabbed one of the books with trembling hands and opened it carefully.
The mermaid girl complained a little: "Are you so excited? It's just a magic instruction manual and setting collection. This kind of thing doesn't occupy the City Guardian's loan item limit at all, and it's almost for nothing... But if it's this person, it's also
Now. Although I don’t know if this kind of book is useful for magic research..."
Fluder flipped through a few pages, then became dejected: "I can't understand."
Of course, this is basically all in Japanese, but of course there are also Chinese characters and English.
"Then, let's prepare a translation table first." The mermaid girl is naturally not a pure native. After spending so much time in this world, she has naturally done her homework with the help of translation tools.
From that day on, the mermaid girl became Fluder's first disciple.
However, just making the translation comparison table took several days and was not yet completed. After that, Princess Vakati and some of her past companions used [Message] to discuss an invitation to explore threats around the Top Forest.
, she agreed, and Fluder also wanted to go with her. Since he believed that the "Thirteen Heroes" had a better chance of exploring the abyss of magic, he would also try to walk the path of the "Thirteen Heroes".
Soon afterwards, a battle broke out between Clawnpis and members of the "Thirteen Heroes".
Okay, turn your attention back to the present——
"Teacher, you..." The mermaid girl looked at Fluder who had just finished his madness, and as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she was interrupted——
"Be prepared this time. If they don't do it, we will go!"
"Hey! Teacher, if you are so anxious to visit again, do you want to..." The mermaid girl had a bad premonition.
"Needless to say, of course I am a disciple!"
The mermaid girl's premonition came true, and she pretended to be dumbfounded and said: "The opponent is a monster that almost killed us... I thought before, teacher, when you talked about magic, it was like there was something wrong with the brain, ah, no, actually it is
Something is wrong."
"Haha, actually I like you like this better than the usual respectful one!"
"Eh?!!!!"
Although he knew that the "like" Fluder mentioned was not that kind of love, the mermaid girl still felt a chill.
The reason for the mermaid girl's resistance was naturally not what she said. She was not an indigenous resident of this world, so she naturally knew about the problem of the magic tree. In fact, she participated in the first battle against the magic tree and shouted, "Shouldn't the script be...
Was he forced to awaken when Ainz came... the one who pretended I didn't say anything!"
In other words, she is not even a player who traveled through time from "Yggdrasil", but a higher-dimensional being who understood "Overlord" and became a mermaid after traveling through time.
In other words, she understood that the other party's tenth-level magic was not due to understanding the magic abyss, but simply gained the ability to be packaged in, and used magic like clicking game buttons.
