After Being Exiled From the Country, I Became the Fourth Enchanter in the World!

Chapter 90 You Can Take Measures Against the Heat, but You Can’t Take Measures Against Brother Complex

After quickly making preparations and descending to the 31st floor, we found ourselves in a jungle that was hot and humid, just as Leon-san said.

When I was in Japan, I never had a chance to travel overseas, so I don’t think it’s accurate, but… it’s probably similar to the climate in the Amazon.

「It’s not a comfortable climate, but it’s not unbearable compared to the ice floor.」

「No, master… this is tough in its own way. We wouldn’t get frostbite, so it is certainly better than the ice floor, but….」

「Is that so?」

Nina raised a dispirited voice, so I turned around and saw that Esther and Ian also had a troubled look on their faces.

「The temperature is within a tolerable range, but the humidity is abnormally high. I can feel my stamina reducing even though I am not moving. Setting aside Master and I, if we were to sleep here…」

「I can endure it with guts, but I think it’s tough for Nina.」

「Then, should we use the safe area on the 30th floor as our base? Personally, I think this place is far better than that stinky place….」

When I offered a compromise, all three of them frowned and said they didn’t want to stay in the safe area.

They didn’t say it out loud, but they were fed up with that smell.

「Then, how about using wind magic to fan ourselves? If we use the snow to cool the wind, it should help a little.」

Intermediate Wind Magic has <Dry> that dries the air.

If I combine it with the snow, I probably can make a substitute for an air conditioner.

As a test, I modified a metal golem to create a simple cooling device on its back and combined it with <Dry>… and it was as effective as an old air conditioner.

「「Master (Onii-sama), you are amazing!」」

Esther and Nina’s eyes sparkled as they looked at me with respect.

It’s just an inferior copy of a Japanese air conditioner, so I feel guilty when the two children look at me with pure respect…

Well, now we can deal with the heat, so let’s just say it’s all good.

「Well then, as planned, we’ll start exploring in earnest from this floor. First, let’s investigate the area thoroughly. Let’s make our own original map!」

「「「Yes!」」」

We all walked around the area and steadily wrote down the information on the map.

Thanks to the enchanted items, all of us are able to use <Appraisal>, so the map, which only had rough information, is being rewritten and gradually becoming a detailed map.

It’s a steady and strenuous work, but since the simple air conditioner is in effect, the physical burden isn’t that big.

We understand that the results would follow if we put in the effort and time, so there’s no burden mentally.

We were attacked by giant centipedes or wyverns sometimes, but… they were instantly turned into drop items by the three other than me, who’s in charge of air conditioning and can’t fight.

Rather than formidable enemies, they were more like ‘delicious visitors’.

We found trees with mangoes (called Goman here) and bananas (Nabana) several times, so we were able to harvest a large amount of them.

「Gomans are especially popular among wealthy people, and they are sold for around 10 silver coins each. This fruit is hard to harvest even on the tropical floor, so it is hard to believe the sight in front of me….」

The former merchant Ian seems to be unable to accept the reality in front of him, and he’s deep in thought with a difficult face.

「I think it is understandable. Without Onii-sama’s appraisal, enchantment, and air conditioner, we wouldn’t be able to explore this efficiently….」

「Also, the monsters that you guys defeated in one hit are formidable enemies that ordinary adventurers can’t beat without risking their lives.」

「Yes. In the past, I carefully wrapped them one by one with fine cloth and sold them, so even if I understand it in my head, my sense of value is shaken when I see a large amount of goman being squeezed in front of me….」

「Isn’t it fine~? It’s sweet and delicious, isn’t it?」

Right now, I’m having Nina make goman juice for me.

The juice is 100% made from ripe goman!

The sweet and fruity aroma is irresistible!

「You can drink it as is, or mix it with white cow’s milk.」

「I see! It looks delicious even just imagining it ♪」

「Goman is Esther’s favorite, so squeeze all of them so that we can drink it anytime.」

「Yes!」

I can’t give Esther the same luxury as when he was a duke’s son, but I can at least let him drink it.

Also, we move a lot, so delicious juice is a necessity.

「Onii-sama…. (It is true that I like goman, but… considering the price, wouldn’t it be better to sell them?)」

「*Whisper* (Don’t worry about money. You’re my younger brother, so let me spoil you.)」

「Yes, thank you!」

「「(Master…. Many adventurers witnessed it, so the rumor about brother complex has been going around recently…. I wonder if he has noticed it….)」」

Ian and Nina are looking at me with complex expressions, but… I’m fine with being a brocon!

Esther will be independent when he grows up, so now is the only chance I have to spoil him!
