Chapter 78

W-What is this... this scent...

Gah, what a wonderful scent.

H-H-H-It’s too good...

“Is something the matter?”

“N-No...”

The source of this wonderful scent is Lady Dorothy. I’ve spoken with Lady Dorothy many times before, but this is the first time I’ve smelled such a wonderful scent. Moreover, she’s so close...

She’s so close that the wonderful scent is tickling my nose.

“Hahaha, Lady Dorothy, Christoph is getting flustered because your face is so close!”

What!

Clara, you!

Even if you know, it’s rude to say such things!

“E-Eh, I-I’m sorry...”

“No, it’s because the scent is so wonderful...”

The beautiful blonde with curly hair is blushing and fidgeting.

What a cute creature!

“It’s a rose scent... one that you said you liked long ago, Christoph.”

“I did? Is that so? It seems I still like that scent.”

“I thought you might remember the old days...”

Despite saying she’s only met me three times, Lady Dorothy remembers me so well. I feel very apologetic for not remembering.

“Christoph, would you like some tea now?”

Luna has prepared the tea at just the right time. This is a house I use as a dormitory, so we can have study sessions here, and Luna can make tea for us. However, Luna’s chest has grown even more.

“Christoph, you always look at Luna’s chest, how much do you like them?”

Muhaha!

Clara, you!

Even if you think it, you shouldn’t say such things!

“M-M-M-M-M...”

Look, Lady Dorothy is giving her chest a sad look!

You don’t have to compare your chest with Luna’s so much...

Indeed, Lady Dorothy’s chest is... not there...

“Luna, how did you get such a chest?!”

Well, some people have big chests, and some don’t grow much...

“Christoph...”

Huh?

Clara is whispering something?

“Why don’t you give Lady Dorothy your blessing?”

Ah!

That’s a good idea!

I had completely forgotten! Clara, you’re sharp!

...Fortunately, Lady Dorothy doesn’t have the blessing of any other gods. As long as she doesn’t worship any other gods...

“Alright, let’s go with that.”

“What are you doing?”

“Eh?”

As always, Clara and I are in perfect sync!

“No, nothing.”

Clara is obviously trying to cover it up. Her eyes are darting around.

How should I bring it up?

If I suddenly ask, “Do you believe in any gods?” it would sound suspicious. Well, how should I do this...

While drinking the tea Luna made and munching on snacks, I ponder.

“Hey, I’ve always thought Christoph’s magic is at an unconventional level. How can you draw magic circles so well?”

Huh?

What are you talking about now, Clara?

...Ah!

I see!

Nice one! Clara, you’re a good assistant!

“I worship the God of Magic and Artifacts, so it’s probably due to that blessing.”

“Huh, what kind of god is the God of Magic and Artifacts?”

“The God of Magic and Artifacts? What about it?”

Lady Dorothy is also getting interested.

“The God of Magic and Artifacts is the god of magic and magical artifacts. Magical artifacts are magic items, but for some reason, they are also the god of breast enhancement. I don’t get the breast enhancement benefit because I’m a man, but women should get that benefit.”

Thump!

“Christoph, is that true?!”

Lady Dorothy suddenly stood up and grabbed my hand with incredible force.

“Y-Yes... if you worship the God of Magic and Artifacts, your magic will improve...”

“And after that?”

Her face is so close...

“It’s effective... Clara and Karla said they grew after receiving the blessing...”

The effect should have been immediate, so I can’t be wrong.

“Clara, is that true?!”

“Yes! They definitely grew!”

“I want to! I want to worship the God of Magic and Artifacts! Please tell me more about the God of Magic and Artifacts!”

Pressed by Lady Dorothy’s desperate expression, I started explaining about the God of Magic and Artifacts, or rather, about myself. Lady Dorothy’s status was in an “excited state due to excessive belief in the God of Magic and Artifacts.” At that point, I decided to give her the blessing. When giving the blessing, my hand glows, so I tried to do it without Lady Dorothy noticing, focusing on the breast enhancement.

“It’s fine, Lady Dorothy. Your feelings will definitely reach the God of Magic and Artifacts.”

Just to be safe, I checked the blessing... Huh?

Blessing of the God of Magic and Artifacts

- Magic Circle Creation Bonus (Medium)

- Magical Artifact Creation Bonus (Medium)

- Dexterity, Intelligence, and Spirit Bonus (Small)

- Magic Power Bonus (Small)

- Magic Attack Resistance (Small)

- Breast Enhancement Bonus (Large)

...The breast enhancement bonus is (Large)... I did focus on it, but I didn’t expect this...

Ah, the magic circle creation bonus is (Medium).

It seems the effect of the magic circle creation bonus has been reduced to balance the large breast enhancement bonus. The breast enhancement bonus is two levels up, while the magic circle creation bonus is one level down, so it doesn’t quite balance out, but if you think about the overall cost, it makes sense that the cost of breast enhancement is lower than that of magic circle creation.

Well, I think many people, like me, value a well-endowed chest.

A woman’s chest is a man’s romance!

...That night, I felt Lady Dorothy’s faith grow stronger. She must have realized her chest had grown.

Go for it, Lady Dorothy!
