I couldn't decide if I should open the message notification or not, and before we realized it, I had unconsciously guided us to Amdagaer's blacksmith shop. Leaving the message aside for later, I walked up to the counter and called out for Amdagaer. When he came to the front he was telling me about how my gauntlets still needed a few more days before they were ready. "That's not why I'm here. I was wondering if you had any items I can use for my new tamed beast, so people will know she's tamed and not be as scared of her. Also keep in mind that she is actually a lot bigger than this, so something that will be able to withstand her size changes." I explained to him, and after taking a minute to think about it, he recommended some ear-cuffs. They would look like piercings, but would only be attached onto the ears, and since their made with magic enchantments, there will be no worries of it falling off during travels, and also be able to change size to accommodate Ikari's form. This one ear-cuff would cost us around 10,638 Ruld.

We bought the ear-cuff, along with one more enchanted with speed and strength enhancements. Attaching the cuffs to Ikari's ears, I told her using telepathy that it was a good look on her, and she had responded with 'Of course it does! I would bring shame on boss if I looked unpresentable." It was kind of cute seeing her act this way though. With our business done at Amdagaer's blacksmith, I said my thanks and left with Sana and Ikari.

"So what should we do now?" I asked everyone, and in unison I heard them all reply with one word, "Lunch!" Well...I guess we're getting lunch hehe. Before finding a place to eat, we went into an alleyway and made sure no one was watching.

"Boss, what are we doing in this place away from the other humans?" Asked Ikari. However, instead of answering her question, I just held up my sword, Noroi, while she's in the sheathe. Channeling my magic power into Noroi, the usual lightning-clad black fog rose up around her, and within a few seconds she changed into her human appearance with a small smile on her face. When I turned around and looked at Ikari, it was safe to say she was surprised, but then she quickly recovered from her shock.

I was expecting her to pester me with questions, but it seemed she easily accepted the situation. Oh well, with this the 4 of us went out to get some food at a restaurant. Since I wanted Ikari to eat with us, we went to a restaurant called 'SilverMoon' that would also feed an adventurer's tamed beast. They don't really make any extravagant dishes, but they also give enough food to satiate their hunger depending on the beasts size. The question is, is if Ikari's hunger decreases with her size.

After we ordered our food, Sana and Noroi started chatting with each other, and while they talked I opened up the message notification, and decided to read through it.

Hello Takahashi-San!!!! It's me Akio. The Goddess that made you the overseer of the world you are currently living in! So...it's a long story, but it seems that the King of the Human Continent in your world has tasked some mages with summoning a hero from another world. Well to be more specific, it'll be someone from your old world. Since the Demon Lord is getting pretty active. By the way congrats on killing one of his generals, but also sorry bout you losing your eye. Of course you can defeat the Demon Lord yourself if you want to, but you can also avoid the issue and just enjoy your life, since they are summoning someone specifically to fight him.

However, should the summoned hero fail, that means you'll have to step in and keep the demon lord from destroying the other races. Anyway, I'll be sending a gift to your 'item box' to congratulate you on your victory, as well as to say 'Thank You' for overseeing that world for me, it'll make my job as Goddess of Worlds much easier. Enjoy your Adventures!!!

Jeez...what a lazy goddess, pushing her work onto me. Although, I guess it's understandable she would ask me to do it, since it would be bad for a god to have too much interaction with a world's inhabitants.
