Chapter 17: Baron Rudy2

Minato's quest was different from what he had been doing so far.

It was a quest to investigate an unknown pressure coming out from the mountains near the Crastea Village.

That village was under the jurisdiction of the noble known as Baron Rudy.

That man issued the quest from the Dungeon Guild, and he had many people constantly flooding the village and its mountains.

Minato and his family would be one of many dungeon raiders.

However, in the lady behind the desk's eyes, Minato was the only one who mattered, and he would be the one to clear the mystery.

Would that happen? Certainly so as Minato had a strong party.

"Should we buy winter clothes? I don't know if clothes from my world can cope with the weather here," Minato asked his wife.

Yuna brought a finger to her lips and pondered, "Hmm. We don't really need clothes, and these would only hide our real strength. I am not sure about you, Minmin."

"He will endure should his Overlord Psychique fail," Bei sneered at him.

At that time, Aya raised her hand, "Husbando Overlord can hug me, and he will cope with freezing! If we add a wife, then no cold will win against us!"

"Back to his world!" Bei didn't like being excluded, her long leg going after Aya.

A spirit avoided the blow by gently floating up, then hugged Minato's leg.

It had been a while since Aya's appearance.

She didn't want to deal with the jealousy of others, and it was pretty poisonous to her. It was a feeling she couldn't explain, nor everyone else could, but the situation was different after Minato had changed.

A spirit casually stomped on the world alongside her master.

"The more I see, the faster I return to my peak. With all memories unlocked, I will be more beautiful than you! I will bully you instead! Hmph!" Aya harrumphed and turned her eyes to Minato.

He patted her, and the journey began in such a way.

That was indeed how one of the promising parties conducted themselves.

Many people would question their origins should they see one of their mornings.

"I guess we don't need any winter clothes," Minato concluded with a smile.

[Crastea Village]

Minato introduced himself and his party to the butler.

That guy was an old man who had been doing the job of the quest's supervisor. He checked Minato's token and content within, then nodded at them with a perfect business smile.

This guy wasn't just about his luck toward women.

The butler understood it based on the token's information.

In that token, Minato did most of the quests. It wasn't like the women he brought with him were useless, as the healers often were excluded from that information.

Healers relied more on fame and their reputation.

The butler believed Minato's women were his support.

Minato acquired more information about the whole quest, then excused himself from him.

After his family did the same, they turned around and went to investigate the mountain on their own.

At that time, the butler's gentle expression flashed, and it turned into a devilish grin, "Master Rudy should come here in person. Such goods!"

He turned around and quickly went to call his master.

From afar, Aya's big eyes reflected the butler's expression.

She hit Minato's shoulder, "Ugly old man!"

Aya shivered in Minato's hands as he held her and carried her as if she was a kid. This allowed Aya to look at the old man properly, and he didn't suspect her to see anything.

Of course, Minato's spirit was his companion. She was a lady that would never leave his side, so building teamwork with her was necessary.

It began with such simple moves.

Minato patted her back, "He will join other friends we've made on our adventure in the afterlife."

Aya stopped moving, and she blinked a few times. Remembering how all other ugly and lustful people died due to Husbando Overlord's overwhelming strength, she widely smiled and nodded, "Yes!"

Minato smiled more with how enlivened Aya became.

His eyes rose, and he scrutinized the mountain.

Its peak stretched out toward heaven as if trying to connect the land with such an exalted place. Alas, the clouds stopped nature high enough, gathering en masse around it.

No mortal could seize and see the peak due to the flying beasts enjoying their best life here. Going below, Minato saw nothing but trees.

Their quantity was so vast that it seemed like falling from the cliff wouldn't kill anyone with just a little psychique.

Of course, the village was also not too far away from it, and each villager wore thick clothes.

That was because they were getting closer and closer toward the Majestic Ice Kingdom and its capital.

Clouds occasionally sprinkled some snow as well.

"A few days ago, an unknown pressure began oozing out of the mountain. This pressure comes from the mountain's feet, so land monsters will be our enemies. The monsters could not bear to live with such pressure, and they hunted villagers for a different land.

Additionally, the butler said that earthquakes started around two days ago. They happen every hour, so let's focus on that, okay?" Minato whispered to Aya's ear.

She nodded.

It was time to have a lot of fun with the husbando overlord and tighten their bond!
