Mountain Plants

We had a great harvest yesterday.

We discovered new ingredients in the morning——of course, we went to a store and bought it.

We went to the temple where I got the magic potions I was looking for. Additionally, I even got the magical papers I wanted to get my hands on for so long——they arrived in the evening in large quant.i.ty.

I felt so excited I wanted to share my feelings with others, and decided to go collect the herbs that are unique to these mines as I promised.

"Today, we are going to collect herbs around the mountain!"

""Ohh~""

If we find herbs, Andy-san's staff from the Adventurer's Guild will be surely happy… well, that's my own belief, though.

(Yay~ going out?)

(Niisama, what are you planning on doing today?)

(Seeing the mountains?)

(A stroll?)

(It's surely herb gathering!)

As we pa.s.sed through the northern gate and advanced on the path leading towards the mountain climb, there were almost no signs of other people.

Joule and Feat who knew that we were currently staying in town and not on a journey came out in their small forms, but returned to their original sizes once they saw there was no one else around.

"Mile is correct!"

(I did it!)

"The kind doesn't matter, but we are collecting herbs from around here. Are you guys going to help us?"

(Of course!)

Not only Mile, the other children also acknowledged the herb gathering and we quickly proceeded to the mountain.

(Niisama, do you want herbs that grow only in the mountains? Is there something you are looking for in particular?)

"Let's see~ I believe that flame gra.s.s and tengu gra.s.s definitely grow here, so I would like those. Also, I think we may be able to find moon poem and charming flower if we are lucky enough~"

Flame gra.s.s and tengu gra.s.s are quite common within the mines, while moon poems and charming flowers are "a bit rare" kind of flowers.

(Oh my, it will be easier to look for those knowing that~)

(Yep, I know these too!)

"Allen knows too~"

"Elena knows~"

(I know as well.)

(Ehh~ I dunno~)

(I am good too!)

It seems that only Vector doesn't know the herbs by their name.

"Vector, how about you guard the surroundings and take care of the monsters then?"

(I am better with that! Got it!)

I thought Vector might be feeling left out by being the only one with a different job, but he seemed pleased instead.

Rather than paying attention, Vector definitely likes moving his body more.

Well… there seemed to be some (Allen, Elena, Joule) who seemed to be slightly envious, but they don't dislike searching for herbs, so they did not voice any complaints.

"Anyhow, let's look for herbs while climbing the mountain from here."

""(((((Yess~)))))""

Without delay, we began climbing the mountain while looking for herbs.

""Ah!""

As soon as we started walking, Allen and Elena seemingly found something as they broke into a run.

"There is."

"Tengu here~"

They have already found tengu gra.s.s, huh~ it's as usual, but they sure are quick~

(Niisama, there's flame gra.s.s over there~)

(I have also found flame gra.s.s~)

(Aniue, there were some strong mushrooms too, but it's fine to ignore those, right?)

(I have found a moon poem!)

"I have found this and I have found that" voices raised and before long, three kinds of herbs and edible mushrooms were gathered around me.

"You are all really amazing at this."

(Right! Praise me, praise me!)

As I admired, Joule rubbed his body against me.

(Oh my, Joule, that's not fair~)

"Allen too~"

"Elena too~"
