A Hentai System in the World of Danmachi.

Chapter 40 – Syr Flova. Punishment.

"May I take your order?" Syr asked. I smiled at her and placed my order. I asked for a meat dish, a pasta dish, and a drink. Since I was paying, Welf ordered a lot, too.

When Syr finished taking our order, she stared at me for a few seconds before leaving.

"What was that about? Why were you looking at her like that?" Welf asked.

"I just thought she was pretty. Can't I look at pretty women?"

"... She'll think you're a pervert if you keep staring at her like that."

"..." I was curious about what Syr would say or how she would act. I know she's not Freya, but she's a persona created by her.

But she didn't act abnormally. She seemed like an ordinary waitress.

"So, have you decided?" I stopped thinking about Syr and asked him.

"Decided about what? The magic sword? I already told you I won't make a magic sword for you. Go to another Hephaestus Familia shop to buy a magic sword."

"Alright, alright, I get it, you don't want money."

"It's not that I don't want money. I don't want to make a magic sword for you. I offered to make a normal sword, didn't I?"

"Why do you refuse to make magic swords?"

"I refuse to talk about it."

"Hm... I was just curious. Do you have some trauma or something? Maybe you're not confident in your talent?"

"Don't talk about things you don't know." Welf slapped the table and glared at me. "Just stop talking about it. I agreed to come to dinner with you, but I won't sit here and listen to you talk about something you don't know. Don't try to guess things about my life."

"Sure, sure, I'll stop. I was just curious. Look, our drinks are coming."

"..."

Chloe approached our table. Even though I had an ugly beard back then, she remembered me. "Oh, you're that guy. I almost didn't recognize you," she said after serving our drinks.

"You're the waitress from that time. Your name is..."

"My name is Chloe. It's a pleasure to meet you. Ah, sorry, I won't disturb you, I'm sorry." Chloe said, blushing and bowing her head to apologize.

"Don't worry. It's impossible for me to feel bothered by such a beautiful woman."

"Uuu..." Chloe's face turned red as a tomato, and she ran away. Welf was staring at me, not believing what he had just seen. He was looking at me like I was complete trash.

"You're a womanizer," he said.

"I'm not a womanizer. I like to compliment beautiful women."

"..."

I admit I need to stop chasing after all these pretty characters I see. Chloe isn't even a character I like that much... Just like Aisha.

What's this? Am I becoming a "hunter of irrelevant characters"?

Well... Aisha is a relevant character.

I couldn't get Welf to change his mind, but I did get a little closer to him. When we finished eating, he was already drunk and talking to me much more casually.

As we left the Hostess of Fertility, I walked him to his shop and said goodbye. He invited me in, but I refused.

'I don't think I'll be able to change his mind, so I'll have to go to the Hephaestus shop and buy a weapon there. For now, I should focus on publishing my book. I hope that old lady does a good job.'

Then, I returned to my room and threw myself on the bed.

I didn't even brush my teeth; I passed out on the bed and only woke up the next day to the sound of someone knocking on my door.

"Wait!"

A new status window appeared before me when I was about to open the door.

[ New daily mission available! ]

[ Make Liliruca fall in love with you. ]

[ Reward: 10 points. ]

'Huh? Make her fall in love with me?' It's probably Lili on the other side of the door. But how am I supposed to make her fall in love with me? It's not easy, even with my [ Charming Aura ] skill.

If I try, it might be possible.

No, it has to be possible! It's a daily mission, so I must make her fall in love with me TODAY! Also, there's a penalty if I don't complete the mission. Yes, a penalty! It's the first time this has happened.

[ Penalty: Liliruca can no longer be added to the Harem if the mission fails. ]

This sucks.

I looked at the door for a few seconds and then opened it. Lili was standing there, wearing her usual clothes and hiding her ears and tail. However, she wasn't carrying her bag.

"Good morning..." she said, embarrassed.

"Good morning, come in. Did you come here to finish reading?"

"Ah... Yes..." Lili replied shyly.

"About that, I took the book to a library this morning. They're making several copies of the book to start selling it. I am going there now, would you like to come with me? I just need to wash my face before we go."

"Are you sure I can go with you?" Lili asked, excited.

"Of course. Wait a minute."

Lili walked around the room and sat in a chair. I went to the bathroom and washed my face. Then I put on my shirt since I had taken it off before sleeping. Maybe that's why Lili was so embarrassed.

"Let's go. It's not far from here."

"Okay."

"Do you want to hold my hand?"

"No, it's not necessary." Lili hid her hand and walked slowly beside me. We went to the library together, and I received some good news.

They started printing several copies of the first volume. They would also make sure to advertise the first volume throughout the city.

They are very committed to this!
