Not Sure, Another World Reincarnation

Chapter 152: Lily…! What a Troublesome Girl…! (2)

The next morning, with Kuro as my guide, we made our way to Gim and the others tent. While getting Kuros belongings, we also chatted with Gim a bit which also served as a means for Lily and Arisa to greet him. But unfortunately, we couldnt meet Triela. She was apparently out buying bread for breakfast in the town, and we just missed each other.

There was no helping it, so I asked Ryuu to convey my regards and headed back home I felt pretty sad.

After returning home, we had a light breakfast and prepared for the day, heading out of town. It was time for Goblin hunting, doubling as training to coordinate with Kuro.

Although, considering yesterdays results, I didnt expect to encounter too many today.

Now, we have a new member, Kuro, joining our clan, but we wont be taking on high-risk quests right away. To handle such quests, we first need to conduct practical field training and develop some level of coordination.

Okaay.

Okay.

Woof!

Garf!

Uugh!

.Right, good responses. So, lets start right away. Although, among us, Norn and Bell are the only ones who can perform scouting-type actions. So, for now, Id like these two to accompany you and have you remember how they act

Got it.

And when you come back, youll report to us, Kuro. Since you seem to have difficulty explaining verbally, well continue this training until you get used to reporting.

Ugh Got it.

Kuro really seemed bad at it Her expression looked quite subtle. But its not that she wasnt motivated; She seemed to be genuinely trying, so I think itll be okay.

Reports shouldnt just be like there were enemies. You should convey various details accurately, such as the type and number of opponents, what weapons they had, their demeanor, and whether there might be more enemies behind them Please understand that this is a crucial role.

Crucial! Got it, Lil!

Oh, it seems like the responsibility of having an important role has stimulated even more motivation in her.

That being said, she calls her Lily Lil, huh Its almost like a casual nickname. Is it okay to call her that? Hmm, she doesnt seem to mind at all. By the way, it seems like she calls Arisa as is.

Should I also address the two of them casually? Well, um Maybe Ill wait for the right moment to decide?

So anyway, lets go!

The results on the first day were quite impressive: 2 Goblins, 3 wild boars, and 15 horned rabbits. As for Kuros way of reporting well, I guess she improved somewhat? Strangely, Kuro seems to understand what Norn and Bell want to convey to her to some extent. Is it some kind of magical animal power? I dont quite understand the logic, but its convenient, so thats good!

As for Kuros enhancements, we had various discussions, including consulting with Arisa, and we decided to maintain the current status. Its been found, based on what happened with Bell, that accelerated development through [Skill Granting] isnt ideal. Also, according to Arisa, while Kuro has established a certain combat style, shes far from mastering it completely. The same applied to her equipment; Kuros body was still pre-adolescent, and she was expected to grow further. According to Arisa, providing her with overly powerful weapons at this stage wouldnt be a good idea, considering her future growth.

However, to ensure her safety, I crafted a Protection Ring for added defense. This magic item constantly generated a protective magical membrane on the surface of her body. With this equipped, even if she were to be caught off guard, it should prevent immediate death.

I sternly warned her not to overestimate the defensive effect of this and recklessly charge into danger. In fact, I scolded her quite severely for doing something reckless immediately after handing it over. Kuro, youre quite a handful

After returning to town, we went straight home without visiting the guild. Well, turning in a mere two Goblins wouldnt make much of a difference The wild boars and horned rabbits were for personal consumption.

Once we arrived home, I worked on making a room for Kuro. We had some spare rooms, so finding a place wasnt an issue. However, Kuro didnt want to sleep alone, so for now, she settled on sleeping with me. Well, shell get used to it eventually, probably.

While I was busy making Kuros room, Lily and Arisa prepared dinner. By the time the room was ready, dinner was also served.

After the meal, we entered the bath in turns, and finally, after that!

So, Id like to hold the second clan name determination meeting.

Lily, this time its about the party names.

Its fine, its all the same! Anyway, its about names!

Huh why is she so worked up? Isnt this a bit unreasonable?

So, here we go! Ren! Do you have any suggestions?

And it had to start with me! Is she doing this on purpose?

Well, then, for our party with Kuro, lets go with Black Lotus.

Black Lotus, is it? By the way, is there any significance or inspiration behind that?

Its just our names. Kuro (Black) and Ren (Lotus).

I see, sounds good! Alright, next

Oh, Lily, please come up with your party name yourselves please.

Huh?

No, its not huh. Ive said it many times; I dont trust my naming sense, so dont expect that from me.

Um um Ah! Arisa! Dont you have anything!?

Nothing.

What do you mean nothing?! There must be something! Anything!

Theres nothing.

Arisaaaaaa!

Dont give me that crying expression. I really cant think of anything.

Do something about it!

Then, how about the one that got rejected last time, Azrael

Not a chaaaance!

Geez, Lily, youre so demanding.

Its not being demanding! I want something cute! Grim themes are a no-go! Absolutely not!

Once again, Lily seemed like she was about to cry Well, cant be helped.

Liliales, Liliaceae, Lilium.

Huh?

Liliales, Liliaceae, Lilium. Please pick one you like from these.

Is that okay?

I cant see the end of this convo, so

Um, by the way, do they have any particular meanings?

They are based on names Lily and Arisa. Theyre names from plant taxonomy or something. Liliales, Liliaceae, Lilium. By the way, in Arisas case, the last part would change to Tulip¹.

Oh that sounds really nice! But, which one should I choose? Hmm!

Im fine with whichever one Lily likes.

Arisa seemed to be getting tired and dismissive At this rate, it would take forever to decide, so theres no other choice.

Since it might take a long time if we leave it up to Lily, lets go with Liliales. It has a similar sound to Lily and Arisa, and it kind of fits.

Huh?

Yes, its decided! Lily, our party name is Liliales!

Huh? Huh?

All right, with the party name settled, lets go to sleep! Good night, everyone!

Huh? Huh? Huh?

Arisa forcefully wrapped things up! But its better to go along with it rather than getting caught up with Lily! Gotta ride the big wave!

With that settled, I rushed to my room! Come on, Kuro, hurry up! Goodnight!
