The Ordinary Willem-Blanc-Legol
 

Count Willem-Blanc-Legol PoV:
 

The spirit festival has ended.
 
This year too, the events went off without any major issues, lifting a weight off my shoulders.
 
However, I am the count governing the vast Legol. Just because one festival is over doesn’t mean I can rest for too long.
 
Ah, I hear footsteps approaching my office. That brisk, diligent stride. Armalco, could you not give your master a bit more rest?
 
“Lord Willem. We have received some reports from the guards regarding the spirit festival.”
 
Well, the annoying butler has arrived.
 
Ever since inheriting the county, … Read the rest

Magical Studies
 

The extraordinary atmosphere of the festival had settled down, and daily life returned to Legol.
 
The cleaning activities had made the town look neat and tidy, and the pigments had completely faded from the flying Jellyslimes. Or rather, it seemed they lost their color completely within about half a day. The colored Jellyslimes flying around until yesterday were probably just child’s pranks or play.
 
The tourists had vacated their lodgings, and the guild adventurers had left Legol to escort wagon convoys.
 
There were still many monsters outside the town, so extermination quests were being issued frequently to … Read the rest

 
A man’s unquenchable thirst for pleasure can lower their IQ by about 100 points. It’s not something you can stop just by trying to stop it. If that’s the case, the only option is to raise awareness about safer methods to minimize the harm.
 
…What am I even doing the day after the festival…?
 
I was about to regain my senses, but I have to at least wipe my own ass clean. Only an ass would say that. Hahaha.
 
“If it’s something I use, it should look something like this.”
 
“Oh?”
 
On the chalkboard part of the bulletin board, Dick … Read the rest

The Injuries of the Three Heroes and Countermeasure Equipment
 

After that, feeling good, I went straight back to the inn.
 
Raina was worried about me on my way back, but I wasn’t so drunk that I was vomiting all over the place. I was more worried about Raina walking alone at night after seeing me off. I just accepted her concern and went back to my room, reminiscing about the taste of whiskey as I fell asleep.
 
I had decided on my plans for the next day. I was going to take on the cleaning duties to tidy up … Read the rest

 
“Welcoming our first time since winter! Wanna drink that tasty whiskey? Join in, ya filthy lot! All you lads who think you’re hot stuff at smut trivia, get your arses over here! We warmly welcome your lewd expertise!”
 
“Leave the dirty talk to me!”
 
“Bring it on, babyyyy!”
 
“Who said that!?”
 
“Can’t afford to lose this time!”
 
One by one, the self-professed smut gurus stood up, pumping their fists. Quietly departing the center area were the female patrons.
 
Tonight, the guild was a man’s world.
 
“…Mongrel, senpai…Surely you’re not…?”
 
Ah…that “unbelievable” moment, Raina.
 
I slammed my beer mug down on … Read the rest

Aged Whiskey And Lewd Tale Battle Round Two
 

Whiskey was limited to one glass per person. The lament came from the whiskey-loving drunks. It’s understandable they longed for the invigorating alcohol kick that beer couldn’t provide.
 
But good news was brought in from outside.
 
One of the newly arrived guildsmen said, “They were distributing it over in the square too.”
 
“That’s an option!”
 
“We have no choice but to go!”
 
“We’ll line up and snatch it if we have to!”
 
With that, a portion of the guild members trickled back to the festival.
 
Indeed, the town crier had mentioned … Read the rest

Amber-Colored Gratitude
 

“Oh, the Mongrel is here too!”
 
“Who’s that guy? He’s got a girl with him…ah, it’s Raina!”
 
“Raina-chan is so cute! It suits her well!”
 
“Uh, uhh…yeah.”
 
As I entered the guild hall, the tavern was already bustling with many people.
 
Guild members who were based elsewhere could come in, but they seemed to dislike being overwhelmed by the energy of the locals. There weren’t many unfamiliar faces today.
 
Still, the atmosphere felt different from usual.
 
The burly men who normally wore armor were dressed casually, and the women had dolled themselves up for the festival.
 
Perhaps … Read the rest

The Spirit Festival’s Hearty Date
 

“Raina! Look, this outfit looks better on you!”
 
“Eh- but……”
 
“No buts! This one is definitely cuter! Don’t you agree, Jona?”
 
“I may not know the latest trends like Ulrika, but I think Raina can pull off outfits like that too. It gives off a youthful vibe.”
 
“Well… but isn’t it a bit strange for me to dress like this?”
 
“No, not at all! Come on, it’s a festival! You’ve got to dress up a little, right? Here, go out there with confidence!”
 
“Ulrika-senpai, you’re so mean… Alright, I’m going.”
 
“Good luck!”

Jellyfishes Swimming in the Sky
 

There is a big festival in Legol even in spring.
 
It’s called the Spirit Festival, celebrating the spirits of the moon or nature or something.
 
Every spring, flying jellyfish-like monsters somehow emerge from somewhere and start coming into the city, so that’s just the season for it.
 
While “flying jellyfish” sounds like quite a fantastical creature, their actual form seems to be more like slimes than jellyfish.
 
Their name is Jellyslime. They float buoyantly through the air, catching and digesting insects that blunder into their semi-transparent bodies, like a carnivorous plant.
 
Their digestive ability … Read the rest
