The well-Balanced Yamamoto-san Gets Caught up in a Death Game

Chapter 94.

‘Grandma, I’m home. I’ve picked up three criminals, can they stay at my place today?’

‘Of course not!　Throw them away!’

I thought I could get into the mood, but it was a no-go!　And they treat me like a cat and dog!

We became friends with a girl who was collecting medicinal herbs …… Riffil-chan, and we had even come to a village in the mountains, thinking that we could stay at her house.

Thanks to our girl talk & helping her collect medicinal herbs together, we got along so well that we even came to the village in harmony (if we were with Riffil-chan, we could enter the village with a face pass) and were even invited to Riffil-chan’s house, where we were turned away at the door by a wrinkled old lady.

Hmmm.

I mean, the house is so big, isn’t it?

It’s like a normal luxurious western-style house, isn’t it the biggest house in the village?　I don’t know.

I don’t know, but I think it’s the biggest house in the village.

‘Well, our grandma is the best concocter in the village, and she acts like the village chief, so ……

She wants to say that’s why she lives in such a great house.

I mean, how can you hide a criminal in such a great man’s house?

But I push my way through!　Because I’m a wanted man!’

Outlaws have their own way of doing things, you know!

Boom!　and open the door through which they were evicted and enter the house from which they were evicted!

And then he goes straight in, puts his hands on his hips and says proudly!

‘Ba-ba-ba-ba-boom!’

Who’s the old woman?　Go home!

Khaan!

She threw something at me, so I retreated.

Stubborn old woman.

‘No, that ……, that’s not the sound you make when you take a pestle to the head, is it ……?’

‘Gods are sturdy, you know.’

No, it hurts, you know?　It did make a weird sound, though.

‘I don’t think it’s about sturdiness or anything like that. ……

‘Well, let’s give it a go this time, then, refill!

‘Eh ……, that ……?

‘Don’t worry, don’t worry, I’ll go with you!’

So, again, boom, there’s Rifil-chan at home!

‘Hey!　Oba-ba-ba-ba-ba!　Your lovely granddaughter has been taken hostage!　I’ll do anything you want, even rub her shoulders and clean her bath, so please let me stay here for three days!　Please!’

‘Um ……, Grandma ……, please …… from me too. I think these people are not subtly bad ……. So …….’

‘Shut up!’

Hee!’

Obaba is scary because she’s strangely powerful, maybe it’s the age of her years!

When I and Refill-chan are hugging each other and trembling, Obaba makes a circle with her index finger and thumb and points it at me.

Eh, that shape is …….

‘How can I get a belly full of shoulder rubs and bath cleaning?　If you want to stay at my place, pay what you deserve!’

What, money or ……?’

‘Money is nothing unusual!　If you offer me something that’s not even funny, I’ll blow you away!

‘Yeah, well, all I’ve got is this …….’

I give her the [Metix grass] that she refused to accept three days ago.

The most important thing to remember is that you can’t just take a look at the pictures of the people you’re going to meet.

I wonder if …… she’s dead?

‘Oh, Lifil-chan, I have a [resuscitation medicine], do you want one?’

‘Oh, then please give me one.’

‘Ta-da!　I’m not dead!

Oh, there it is!

I was hit with a stick that Obaba had!　Against violence!

‘What a bad time to ……. If this had happened two days ago, we wouldn’t have had to go into the back mountains. ……

‘The back mountain?’

‘The mountain behind this village is a dungeon, and at the top of it there’s a colony of [metix grass].

Hey, riffraff!　Don’t talk to outsiders!

‘Hien ……’

Wow, there’s a dungeon in the mountains.

The most important thing to remember is that you don’t have to make a dungeon in the backwoods. Did I need to go out of my way to make it?

But if you have to go up the mountain to get it, it’s a hassle to go and get it, isn’t it?

But still, Obaba is old, and she climbed the mountain two days ago, she’s quite a powerful old lady!

‘Well, you can stay here for a week or so if you like. You’re not a bandit, are you, since you have all this stuff?　But you’re a very bad girl.

‘Have I come at a bad time?’

The most important thing to remember is to be able to keep your eyes on the road ahead of you.

The other day, a bandit-like figure was seen outside the village, and the villagers are tense, wondering if he might be coming to attack the village. ……

‘So that’s how it is. The village is very tense. To avoid suspicion, don’t make any suspicious movements in the village, okay?’

Yes.

Thieves, eh?

We’ve been hanging around here for quite a while.

Well, I’m glad we got permission to stay here. Sometimes you want to sleep on a fluffy futon, don’t you?

So, we immediately invite Tsuna and Envy into the house. And I’ll introduce you two.

‘Oh, Obaba, let me introduce you. This is Tsuna-san and this is Envy-chan. And I am the diabolical Hell Emperor Yama-san.’

‘…………’

What?　Did she freeze up again?

You’re a demon tribe, aren’t you?　Get out!　Get out!’

So, we had another row.

I’d forgotten that in the countryside of the People’s Republic, there’s still a lot of prejudice against the demon tribe!

Obaba and I managed to persuade her to let us stay here on the condition that we don’t go out of the house anyway. Yeah, I’m tired. ……

I mean, I heard that in a countryside like this, just because you have a demon tribe staying over, you could get the village rounded up. How prehistoric. ……

I’d like to kick them out of the village right now,……, but now that they’ve given us what they’ve given us, we’ll let them stay!　But don’t go wandering around the village!　Unless you want the villagers chasing you with sickles and hoes!

If I run away to the mountains, I’ll probably go mountain hunting or something. It’s a horror story!

Do the villagers have time on their hands?

‘Most of the villagers are farmers, so they’re usually free during the day now that it’s not harvest time ……, so they’ll probably really chase you ……’

‘Master Yama, please stay out as much as possible!’

Envy-chan is turning blue in the face.

The most important thing to remember is that you are not the only one who can do it.

The most important thing to remember is that the best way to get the best out of your car is to get the best out of your car!

■■■.

Sunlight doesn’t suit outlaws. ……

It is the fate of outlaws to struggle on in the depths of darkness, where the sun never shines. ……

In other words, helping Refill-chan to [mix] in the house is also …….

It’s called being an outlaw!

Shut up!’

Cahn!

Ouch!’

Obaba threw a pestle at me and it hit my head!

I’ve got a zing, so I’m going to put a [heel light] on it. ……

What is that metallic sound when I hit you with a pestle?　You’re a creepy kid!

God is as hard as metal.

That’s why they’re called demons!

You’re so prejudiced!

The most important thing to remember is that the most important thing to remember is that you are not alone!

I mean, I want you to concentrate on [blending] now!

When I look at Rifil-chan’s direction, she’s concentrating as if the current exchange didn’t happen.

I have to work hard too. ……

So I’m going to carefully crush the medicinal herbs in the mortar with a pestle.

I could have used [wood chips daphnia], but that would have scattered.

To avoid wasting the material, we do this carefully by hand.

Also, Obaba says that medicinal herbs are weak against heat, so if you rub them too quickly, the heat will damage them and reduce their efficacy.

So we slowly, but as quickly as possible, make a paste.

Once that is done, the contents are transferred to a test tube and the red herbs are put into a mortar and pestle and pestle.

I am now being taught how to make the Red Potion ……, a special potion unique to this village.

I don’t know what her whim is, but Obaba seems to be teaching me how to make the Red Potion as well as Rifiru-chan. Her face is wrinkled and she’s scary, shouting easily, but actually she’s a kinder person than you might think. Mufufu.

What are you grinning at?

Kahn!

Ouch.

I take back what I said before.

He’s a tough guy after all!

Incidentally, the efficacy of the Red Potion seems to be that it temporarily increases attack on things in addition to recovering HP, and I have the impression that it could be used rather conveniently.

However, it seems that the red medicinal herbs needed to make the Red Potion itself only grow naturally near this village, so in that sense, it is treated as a special potion unique to the village.

So, well, it’s not like you can make it anywhere else, so maybe it’s just a feeling that it’s okay.

I can make red medicinal herbs anytime I want to with [Creation of magical equipment], though!

The ratio of red medicinal herbs to medicinal herbs is three to one. Don’t make a mistake!　If you get it wrong, it’ll turn out to be deadly poison!’

Yes, yes, ……!

Okay.

While putting the paste of red herb into the empty test tube, Rifil-chan carefully checks the memory of the test tube containing the normal herb again and again. The most important thing to remember is that the best way to get the most out of your test tube is to make sure that it’s empty.

I take my time and boldly put what I think is about this amount into the empty test tube.

Yeah, I’m at the [blending] level max!

I easily got the target amount!

‘He’s a joke, but he’s incredibly good at [blending]. …… Riffyll, don’t lose to such an amateur!

Yes, yes, ……!

It’s a terrible thing to be told!

Then you fill two test tubes with purified water and take the two test tubes off the heat just before boiling. Then, once the solution in the two test tubes has been mixed by straining and transferred to a portion bottle, the portion bottle is immersed in water and cooled as quickly as possible.

It’s quite an exasperating potion, because if you don’t mix it while it’s hot, it won’t mix, and if you don’t cool it down quickly, it will taste gruesome and undrinkable afterwards. ……

And the red potion is ready!

Yeah, it came out top quality, probably because I didn’t botch a single step!

Grandma!’

‘Oh, okay, okay. …… ‘Oh, good, good, good. You worked really hard, but you only got average quality, didn’t you? On the contrary, you made it humming and made the highest quality. …… This is why those who give to the demon tribe!　Yeah, get out!　Get out!’

I made it exactly as Obaba taught me, but to ask me to leave isn’t so bad!’

So, despite another agonising row, Rifiru-chan and I spent the day continuing to make Red Potion until we ran out of materials.
