Chapter 131. Treasure Chest's Content

The 1st treasure chest.

From the leftmost treasure chest, Kazane-san took out a bottle of potion.

"I wonder if this is an 'MP Potion'? Hotaru-chan, can you appraise it?"

"Roger that. - Hmm, no mistake. It's an MP Potion, right? Should I hold onto it for you, Kazane-san?"

"Yeah, that's right. I had some extra space in my [Item Box] after we ate the sandwiches. But..."

Kazane-san glanced at Aria.

That's right.

Can we take all the contents of the treasure chest for ourselves, the 3 of us?

However, Aria-san vehemently shook her head, as if to say she didn't need to claim the right to the acquired items as someone who received help.

"I have no intention of asserting rights to the acquired items as someone who get helped."

"I see. In that case, we'll gladly accept them. Now then, let's open the next treasure chest!"

While securing the MP Potion as a party asset, Kazne-san opened the next treasure chest.

What came out was...

"It's another potion. But this one looks like... Hotaru-chan, can you check it out?"

"Sure thing. Let's see... this is a High HP Potion. I'll put it in my [Item Box]."

"Thanks!"

From the middle treasure chest came a High HP Potion.

Now we have two MP Potions and two High HP Potions, in addition to the ones we already had.

But we don't use them much.

While they serve as insurance for emergencies, they also took space in the [Item Box].

I might need to organize the items and sell the ones we don't need.

Or perhaps I should acquire my [Item Box] to increase our capacity.

"Alright, on to the 3rd one - Open! Oh, could this be some valuable treasure?"

From the 3rd treasure chest, the rightmost one, Kazane-san took out a robe with a wizard-like design.

It resembled the one Yuzuki was wearing, but the design was slightly different.

It had slightly fancier decorations and details.

If I remember correctly.

"Hotaru-chan, please appraise it!"

"Got it. [Item Appraisal]! - Mm, bingo. It's a Wizard's Robe. It provides a defense of 15 and boosts magical power by 4. The Rune Robe I'm wearing now provides a defense of 7 and boosts magical power by 2, so this one is a complete upgrade."

"Oh, I thought so."

I remember Wizard's Robes were one of the top-tier armors sold at Oyaji-san's store for about 1.8 million yen.

"May I wear this?"

"Yeah, there's no one else who would use it."

Kazane-san wears Black Clothes, and I'm wearing Elven Leather I received from Elf village.

Excluding Aria-san, Yuzuki is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate to wear it.

"Then, I'll change right here. Senpai, face the other way. If you peek, there'll be consequences."

"Got it. As if I'd be interested in peeking at you changing."

I turned my back to Yuzuki.

Then, Kazane-san stealthily approached from behind and covered my eyes with her hands.

My vision went completely dark.

"Kazane-san...?"

"Daichi-kun is a pervert, so I can't trust you just by turning around. That's why I'm blindfolding you."

"Uh... It's fine, but I don't have any interest in peeking at Yuzuki naked or anything."

"You keep saying that."

"Well, it's only natural. For me, Hizuki is not like that."

As I said that, I couldn't help but secretly imagine Yuzuki taking off her robe.

I'm full of worldly desires.

After the sound of clothes rustling, Yuzuki finally spoke up.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, senpai. You can turn around now."

With Kazane-san removing the blindfold, I turned to face Yuzuki.

Wearing the slightly extravagant robe, Yuzuki turned around like in a fashion show and struck a cute pose.

"How do I look, senpai? Do I look cute?"

"Yeah, it suits you well. With your natural charm, you look adorable."

"Mmm... I don't know if I should be happy or disappointed with that evaluation."

Yuzuki pouted her lips.

Though I intended to compliment her,  my choice of words is different from what my little sister wanted to hear.

After taking the treasure chest's contents, we opened the door on the left side of the room and continued forward.

In this plain environment, battling monsters and opening treasure chests, it feels like we're exploring a dungeon after a long time.

I can't help but notice Aria-san seems a little absent-minded, but I can do nothing about it.

We'll let her act like a relaxed princess, considering she's the one we're here to rescue.

...Or so I thought.

As it turns out, Aria-san will have to get to work surprisingly soon after this.
