Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

Chapter 43 - Kieta, And Unbalanced Odds

That woman was adorable, but now it was time to turn my attention back to Jilly, who looked like her patience was wearing thin. I was just about to talk to her, but Nushi's throat clearly reminded me that I had not included her.

"Sorry, maybe it would help if you could take notes on what effects are given to the weapon when the girls bring it back. I would also like you to find out if it is always the same kind of enchantment from each element. If it isn't, then I need to know all the possible effects that it could cause. All of these things could be very important, including if there are more than one for each, then is there one that appears more?" I asked long-winded, but I was sure that she got everything that I had just said. ??

"Yes, I can do that, and I will also mark down anything else that I notice. Have you met Kieta yet? She is my father's scientist, and you might want to talk to her about these things. Normally she is around the Keep more, but she is probably busy working on a new experimental weapon for my father," Nush explained as she brought out her Book.

"Your father has a scientist? Why is this the first time that I have ever heard about this person? I would be very interested in meeting them," I said, becoming excited at the prospect of meeting this person.

I wasn't big on science, but the words, experimental weapon instantly made me interested. While yes, the idea was to make me stronger, it was more about the fun of trying out new things while hoping that they didn't explode.

"Well, Kieta has a pretty bad track record for making usable weapons," Nushi explained.

"What do you mean? Like one out of five? Six? Eight? Ten?!" I asked, with a growing alarm as Nishi shook her head no each time.

"Granny Kieta was at a running tally of two out of the last seven hundred and thirty-two weapons that she has created. Are you almost done? I am starting to get hot and bored," Jilly told me.

"Okay, take down notes; we will talk more about Kieta later on our walk," I said to Nushi, and she nodded to me, so I turned back to Jilly. "Okay, let's go for a walk. I am sorry that I made you wait so long."

"It is fine, but the sooner you tell me, the faster I can complete this project," Jilly said, but I was surprised how easily she brushed me off by making her wait.

"Sure," I said as we walked over to the lumber. "Okay, so we need a water place for sure since I will have to go rescue a Sahuagin at some point when I can get to her. Then there is the Magma Spider; I am not sure what we will need for her, so maybe leave a large room open," I said, but Jilly shook her head at me.

"You so just let old man Fireden deal with her; you don't want that thirsty bitch around," Jilly told me, and it didn't sound like she liked this spider too much, but that was hardly surprising.

"Regardless, Mex asked me to look after her, so the two of you will have to get along. I think this is a good place on the side. We are close to the gate, so we don't have to walk to the back of the castle each time. Make it pretty tall so we can add a second floor and still have lots of room below," I explained to Jilly, and she nodded and listened.

"Okay, I think I have what I need from you, but I think you should all go play in the back, so I don't have to worry about hurting anyone. I'm really more worried about something happening to Mary. With her gift, the thing is more likely to happen to me while I'm trying to work," Jilly explained, and I nodded in acknowledgment.

"Got it, I will take the children to the back, but you make sure that you're careful. I would have to see your pretty face or body get damaged," I said with a wink that made Jilly actually blush a bit as her yellow hard hat appeared on her back from out of nowhere and then slid up on her head.

I turned back to the other girls with a smile just in the title to see the Cerberus girls in dog form grabbing the fire sword out of the air. As soon as they caught it, a level-up notification popped up for them.

[Level Up] Level 2 gained!

Sit Link? What? Well, that was extremely helpful, but that acronym was a bit much. Still, beggars can't be choosers, and now it was time to see what information that Nushi had collected.

There was also the question of how I was going to help Mary and Nushi work on their skills. I might have to make them more involved with the training outside of the Keep, but I would have to be careful with Nushi, or Mex would lose it.
