The Hero Party’s Moms Are Obsessed With Me

It’s definitely a diam.

A Guardram fruit in a perfect condition that I’ve never seen before.

Magical power that I’ve never seen before.

Abilities that I’ve never seen before.

A magical stone that I’ve never seen before.

Just being together, it brings not only things that Rageta has never seen in a thousand years, but also new experiences.

A solid magical stone with a weight in my hand.

If everyone in the world knew that this is a slime’s magical stone, they would deny it.

Rageta would also not believe it if she hadn’t seen Diam’s abilities with her own eyes.

If she hadn’t experienced Diam’s abilities firsthand, she wouldn’t have believed it.

“Raw and untouched magical power.”

I’ve already experienced natural magical power many times.

For example, the solar magical stone that a certain provincial tower master offered as a tribute on my last birthday, whose name I can no longer remember.

Various elemental stones piled up in Rageta’s magical warehouse.

But monsters are a first.

The surroundings,

The concentration of magical power in the air, and so on.

Numerous factors determine a monster’s habitat and strength, which is common knowledge in this world.

“If I analyze this magical stone, a new theory might be born!”

Just looking at the mouth-watering magical stone makes my saliva flow.

Ten opportunities.

It’s more than enough, but the number falls woefully short in utilizing the thousands and millions of knowledge that Rageta possesses.

“What method of theory should I use? Should I start with density measurement and analysis of types, or with reactions to magical power?”

As I spun my head excitedly, Ellie approached from a distance with a box in her hands.

Lageta didn’t pay much attention to her appearance.

Exploration was natural, and sometimes it resulted in obtaining fascinating items.

Just as I was trying to concentrate on the magic stone again, I felt an attack spell within the detection range.

It was a Grade 7 explosive magic spell.

A spell that would instantly turn a small village into a wasteland when activated.

I spread my magic around the surroundings, thinking it might be an external attack, but there was no approaching presence.

On the contrary, the magic trap was in the hands of Diarm, who had become my most precious existence.

“That foolish knight!!”

No matter how Grade 6 concealment magic was cast, how could she entrust a box with an unknown identity to a young child?!

“Wait! That box is rigged with a magic trap that explodes when forcibly opened!”

I shouted urgently, but Diarm’s hand was already on the lock.

“Darn it! I’m too late!! I have no choice but to cut off the space between the box and Diarm with spatial barrier magic!”

What mattered to Lageta was Diarm.

Olivia and Ellie would be engulfed in the explosion, but they could be resurrected.

After deciding the priority in an instant in her mind, she tried to manifest the spatial magic.

Click~

The lock opened.

“… Huh?”

The explosive magic… remained as it was…

“Huh, how… could this happen…”

The explosive magic triggered by her detection was designed to explode the moment the lock opened through means other than the key.

And Diarm “opened” the lock with his peculiar ability.

However.

“Hmm? Lageta, what did you just say? Magic trap?”

“Oh, no…”

The explosive magic remained unchanged.

As Lageta looked at Diarm, who was looking at her with a casual expression as if asking what was wrong, her heart sank.

In her hand was a very important slime magic stone.

Lageta tossed the magic stone carelessly onto the floor and staggered towards it.

Pohok.

“Lageta-nim?!”

“A surprise embrace?! This is dangerous!! Get away from the prince!”

He pulled Diam into his arms.

Despite the chaos around them.

Even with Elli pulling at his shoulder.

Lageta did not let go of Diam.

“Why is that?”

A child they had met only a few days ago.

A child whose heart was [unveiled] due to an unknown ability.

He understood it in his mind.

But in a fleeting moment.

Just the thought of Diam getting hurt.

Just the thought of losing Diam.

Lageta was scared.

A primal fear, unlike anything he had felt in the past few hundred years, overwhelmed Lageta.

What did the child, who embraced that fear within them, feel?

“Elli? I’m fine.”

“Milady?! But-“

“Look at the child’s hand.”

From Noble mtl dot com

“… I understand.”

Diam, who had stood still, gently patted Lageta on the back.

***

“Why is this woman suddenly acting like this?”

Elli used her ability to [open] the box she had brought.

Just as she opened it, Lageta suddenly embraced me with a terrified expression.

“Lageta-nim?!”

“A surprise embrace?! This is dangerous!! Get away from the prince!”

Even with the chaos happening around them, he didn’t let go of me.

At the same time, I felt her trembling.

I patted her back without realizing it.

It’s okay.

So, don’t be scared.

Pat, pat.

Luckily, the trembling slowly subsided, as if it had an effect.

“I… I can’t do it, Diam.”

“What?”

“I will protect you with my life.”

Huh? All of a sudden?

Suddenly, Legata’s obsession level rose by one notch.

“Legata. What about the mana stone analysis?”

“It can be done at the inn.”

“Alright… I understand that. When will you let go of that hand?”

“What hand?”

“The hand you’re holding hands with Doyeon!!”

“But Olivia is holding hands too.”

“I am the mother of the child, you know?”

“I am also Diam’s mother.”

“Sigh! That’s not what matters!”

What a mess, there’s no other word to describe this mess~

As I released the rings on both hands and regained my freedom, both of them looked at me with teary eyes.

Ignoring their gazes, I picked up the box I had just dropped a while ago.

“By the way, I mentioned that there is a magic trap, right?”

Could Legata’s increased level of obsession be because of this box?

I nodded and handed her the box, as if she had thought of something, she took it.

Not long after, with a crackling sound, sparks flew out of the box.

“Now it’s safe.”

“…”

After receiving the box from me again and bowing her head, Eri stood beside Legata.

“Just now, you mentioned a magic trap, right? It didn’t trigger the detection tool.”

“The explosion magic of Grade 7 was cast on it, you fool.”

“W-what?! Grade 7?! In that box?! Was it sealed with a demon?!”

“Who cares? What’s important is that your incompetence almost killed Diarm.”

“Ugh… I’m sure I checked it with magic tools…”

“You think those trash magic tools can protect Diarm? We should overthrow this kingdom.”

Wait, aren’t you supposed to protect me and not Olivia…?

Moreover, I heard that Eli only brings the ones with good performance from the kingdom, even if they are not of the highest grade.

The magic tools that are more than enough for occasional adventures.

But this time, I must have stepped on shit with really bad luck.

“But seriously, how dangerous is Grade 7 explosion magic to cause such a reaction?”

My curiosity was resolved by our bilingual mother.

“It is dangerous. It can easily turn a small village into dust.”

“A, a village?”

A village?!

Unconsciously, I almost threw the nuclear bomb I was holding away.

“Yes. Eli? Hand me those worthless magic tools. All of them.”

“…Why?”

“Why do you think? I can’t relax when the person closest to Diarm is using such trash.

It doesn’t matter if I take Diarm from your arms.”

When I shuddered at her chilling remark, Eli, who had been silent, hurriedly took out various magic tools from her pocket and handed them to Lagatha.

After briefly skimming through more than ten types of magic tools, Lagatha let out a deep sigh.

“Ugh… Those kingdom bastards and their prehistoric relics…”

“I-It’s… a valuable item selected from the kingdom’s warehouse…”

“A passing slime would laugh at that. Never mind.”

When Lagatha waved her hand with an irritated face.

Click!

Boom! Bang!

“Ow! Hey! What the hell are you doing?!”

Eli shouted, “The ten selected magical tools from the kingdom have all turned to dust and disappeared.”

Lagetta casually ignored Eli’s cry and flicked her fingers a few times, causing a dimensional rift to open, and a floating purple object appeared.

She reached her hand into it.

“These and these. This should do.”

She pulled out several magical tools that resembled the ones that had turned to dust earlier and threw them into Eli’s lap.

“Hey! What are you doing? How dare you treat the kingdom’s treasure like this!”

“If you want such low-quality magical tools, go to the bathroom of the Tower of Magic. Now, use this. It’s a detection device that can detect up to 9th-grade magic and has an infinite power source. There’s also a scroll with a 7th-grade Hellfire spell and a phoenix feather.”

Just hearing the names made Eli’s conviction that it was a real treasure of the royal family firm.

Once again, my attention turned to the box that had instantly improved our party’s armaments by several levels.

How on earth does this insane box exist in the lumberjack’s hut guarded by four goblins?

Since Lagetta also disabled the remaining traps, now I just need to check the contents.

With trembling hands, I opened the box, and inside…

“…?”

There was a small bottle containing a liquid that would disappear with a single sip.

“Water… perhaps?”

“It doesn’t seem like ordinary water. Maybe it’s some kind of potion?”

“…?”

“Ah, just give it to me.”

As expected of our great tower master.

Please bestow your knowledge upon us ignorant mortals.

As I handed her the box, Lagetta grabbed the bottle.

Her previously black eyes were tinged with golden light, and multiple layers of magic circles appeared within them.

And then, five seconds passed.

“Wow. It’s here?”

It must be an item that would make even the great tower master marvel.

“What is it?”

“What’s inside?”

Lagetta smirked and handed me the bottle again.

“Diam. Drink it.”

… Excuse me?

“Lageta. Is it okay to eat this Diaam?”

“It shouldn’t be strange, right?”

“Why would I feed something strange to Diaam? It’s good for the body… no, it’s good for everyone. Don’t worry, just gulp it down, Diaam~”

Good for everyone?

A treasure protected by a 7th-grade magic.

Drinking it might not make you a hero, but could it give you the stamina of a seasoned warrior or increase your magic power to its maximum?

Though doubtful…

If Lageta is offering it like this, it should be trustworthy.

Amid everyone’s gaze, she popped the lid open with a clink.

Sniff, sniff.

“No strange smell.”

“…”

When they looked around with eyes that asked, Olivia and Eli expressed their unease.

“Is it really okay?”

“Lageta, both the Lord and Lady are curious about its effects.”

“It’s fine, right? Ah, the effects are escaping into the air! Diaam, hurry and drink!”

Era! I don’t know!

I closed my eyes tightly and took a sip of the potion.

Gulp~

It was all gone in one sip.

As the liquid went down my throat, my body warmed up.

And then…

Bam!

“?!”

Suddenly, there was a strong reaction down below.

I quickly pulled my waist back.

“Oh my, oh my…”

“Cough, cough! Lageta, why did the Lord suddenly… g-gain an erection?!”

Everyone was watching.

And the shocked Lageta, who had caused this situation, covered her mouth with her hand.

“I, I can’t believe it’s this big… This is… a new discovery? Churup…”

I marveled at its size…
