Chapter 230


(230) The Homunculus’ name and Sheena No . 3’s new character


Translator: Tseirp


Just as I was lost in thought, that homunculus (naked) suddenly came forward to kiss me .


A kiss? Just what was this homunculus (naked) thinking? Suddenly coming forward to kiss me!?


“Suddenly kissing me, do you not have any shame! What are you thinking?”


I shouted at the homunculus (naked) after I was finally released .


“Shame? But providing magical power is the master’s duty?”


“Eh? Providing magical power?”


Now that she mentioned it, I noticed that I have been robbed of quite some strength .


Nevertheless —


“In that case, we can just use your back . The back with plenty of sweat glands is more than sufficient to transfer magical power right!?”


“Eeh, but that is quite inefficient . It would be done in just a few seconds with a kiss but doing it via the back will have to take dozens of minutes . ”


“Wha-what a girl . ”


Could there be such contrasting personalities even though they were both homunculi?


“Master, do you have any kind of string to tie my hair with?”


“Ah, I have those that my younger sister used . ”


I took out a rubber hair tie from my item bag and pa.s.sed it to her .


“Thank you~”


She said as she took the rubber hair tie, held it in her lips and started arranging her hair .


She was tying a ponytail .


“Or rather, Pionia! Hurry up and prepare some clothes for her . ”


“Aren’t you enjoying the view?”


“Just hurry up and do it!”


I turned around and starting chanting a sutra .


However, unlike Miri who could do everything, I did not memorize most of the sutra and could only intently chant ‘Namo Amitabha’ .


After a while,


“Master, I have finished changing . ”


I heard a voice call me . She had finished changing but it seemed that she would need a longer time to set her hair . She seemed to be struggling quite a bit with it .


“Okay … wait, don’t you have any other clothes!? I’m surprised you even have such clothes . ”


Homunculus (naked) became homunculus (maid) . Yeah, she was wearing a maid outfit . Moreover, Pionia was thorough with her work and was wearing a maid outfit as well . I wondered just what kind of shop were we running .


And naturally, they were not the regular maid outfits of this world — they were the maid outfits you would commonly see at Akihabara . As if to match their hair colors, Pionia’s maid outfit was yellow while the other was a green maid outfit .


“Master Malina sketched the design for me previously so I made them . ”


“Hah, that girl … seriously . ”


Saku Malina seriously loves cosplay after all . I only recently found out that even her regular elegant magic-user outfit was actually not because of Marina’s wishes but Saku Malina’s wish instead .


“So, master, what would be my name? Could I receive a name just like elder sister Pionia did?”


Homunculus (maid) said after she finished tying her hair .


“There’s no way I can think of a name so suddenly . ”


I had to think pretty hard when I was considering Pionia’s name .


“It’s okay, you have to go with your intuition for something like this . Things like the origin of the name or the word strokes are all the parent’s ego after all . Rather than such a name, I want a name that I can call my own . ”


“You — have a very manly personality . ”


I looked at her clothes, hairstyle and hair color as I pondered .


I thought for up to a minute . I realized that after taking this long to think, it could no longer be considered intuition . Furthermore, the expectation hurdle would raise even further the longer I pondered so I chose that name from the couple candidates I had .


“Are you fine with Neete?”


“Neete? That sounds good . So, what meaning does it have?”


“Didn’t you say you won’t want to know what meaning the name has?”


“I didn’t say I wouldn’t ask . I said it so that you would not be bothered by it . I like the name . I will accept this name even if this name is the name of master’s ex-lover . ”


“I won’t do something like that, as if naming a gal game character after a crush . The reason is that . ”


I pointed at Neete, or more specifically, at her hair .


“It’s a po(nyta)il so … Neete . ”


“I see, it certainly is a novel name . ”


She replied and was actually not angry as she laughed happily .


I instantly knew that she was a lot easier going compared to Pionia


Hmm, it might be a little strange since she looked like a cute girl but if I think of her as a male friend, she’ll probably be a person I could get along with very well .


“Ah, master, I have one question . ”


“Hn? What is it Neete?”


“When are you going to do lewd things to me?”


“Like h.e.l.l I would!?”


I snapped at Neete’s question .


I take back my previous words, this girl is a mess .


For now, Neete would be in charge of the newly created mine and the fields .


Well, there were various issues but that seemed to safely resolve the issue of the lack of manpower .


“Master, because of the shock from your knock on my head just now, the ending of my sentences has become strange desu . Could I consider this as having acquired a new character desu?”


Sheena No . 3 said something idiotic but, yeah, something this degree shouldn’t be an issue .


The person (machine?) looked like she was happy after all .
