◇◇◇

The day after being attacked by a tentacled squirrel demon, Lilia gleamed in front of the mirror.

“Wait, wait, here! Great …… skin! Super smooth~~!”

Rolf said that the mucus would have a beautifying effect on the skin.

Since I had heard that mucus could be used to make high-end cosmetics, I thought I might be able to sell it, so I kept as much as I could in a jar for collection, just in case. I applied a thin layer of the mucus here and there on my body, and to my surprise, it made my skin beautiful! And it even has an indescribable, enchanting good smell.

Lilia’s skin had evolved into the most delicate skin, soft and smooth, but with a shimmering pearly sheen, like the skin of a noblewoman, polished by the hands of several people. Lilia’s originally young and healthy. The skin’s tautness and moisture were perfect. However, when touched, her skin’s texture was the most exquisite thing she had ever experienced.

“The mucus is so effective. This is a magically beautiful skin……”

I feel like my girl power has gone up a notch or two, and my mood is lifted. Lilia quickly got ready for her adventure and hummed as she headed to the Adventurer’s Guild.

◇◇◇

From Lilia’s house to the Adventurer’s Guild is about 30 minutes on foot. Since it was early in the morning, the number of people passing by was sparse. However, in that short time, an unprecedented period of popularity had arrived for Lilia.

Every man on the street turns around and gives me a heated look for some reason. Beastly, men, in particular, stare at me with glazed eyes, which honestly scares me.

“Hey, aren’t you cute ?”

A cat-beast man with cute cat ears speaks to me. He has a beautiful long tail that swings slowly from side to side on his slender and supple body like a cat.

(Oh! Handsome!)

At the honest words of praise, Lilia couldn’t help but blush.

“What about with me, now?”

“What? What do you mean by that?”

When Lilia is pouting, she is stared at by some sexy eyes. Lilia felt somehow in danger…

“Um! I’m on my way to the Adventurer’s Guild now! I’m busy! Bye!”

I ran off to escape. In the meantime, the men called out to me one by one. The persistence of the beastly men is incredibly overwhelming.

(What what what? I’m kind of scared!)

Lilia has a cute look and a petite build that tickles the fancy of protection. Still, because she looks younger than she is, she is usually treated like a child. She’s not used to being shot at by glaring eyes, as if they were treating her like prey.

◇◇◇

—at that time, in the Adventurer’s Guild, Rolf was waiting for Lilia, as usual. As I was sitting in a suitable chair and stirring up some fruit water, Lilia came running in, looking flustered.

（！！！！！！！！！！）

Rolf desperately suppressed a scream, quickly picked up Lilia in his arms, and flew out of the guild like the wind. Leaving behind the gazes of those who were stunned by his speed.

“Hey, that was Lilia, wasn’t it?”

“Yeah, what a mess.”

“No, it’s just that Rolf is moving a little too fast to see what’s going on……”

◇◇◇

On the other hand, Lilia was taken away from the guild for no apparent reason and was confused.

“Hey! What? What? What? What? What is that~~?”

Rolf’s house, not far from the guild that we came to in a surprisingly quick manner.

(I was brought to a house out of the blue……. ！！！！ (What the heck… ！！！！ )

Rolf sat Lilia down in the nearest chair for the moment and huddled on the floor, shivering.

I really don’t know what’s going on. The reaction of the city, this man, it’s been strange since this morning.

“Um? Rolf? What’s going on?”

When Lilia called out fearfully, Rolf grabbed Lilia’s shoulders with a desperate look on his face that she never saw before and exclaimed.

“Lilia, you didn’t go home last night? What’s going on?”

“……, Huh?”

“I can smell the mucus of yesterday’s demon on you.”

The words made sense to Lilia.

“What? Oh, oh yeah. You’re worried about me! Thank you so much for helping me yesterday! I went home and rested properly!”

“Then why do I smell a demon?”

Although he doesn’t have the same glare as the men in the city, he quickly averts his eyes when they meet, and he has a kind of red face.

“Didn’t Rolf tell me that the mucus from the tentacles could be used to make high-grade cosmetics? I was curious, and I tried it on, and it was amazing. I was surprised to see my skin clear up!”

“……!!!! Huh……..”

Rolf let out a small sigh of exasperation and spoke up as if he had made up his mind.

“Lilia, listen to me. That mucus contains a powerful aphrodisiac that has a strong pheromone effect of attracting people.”

“How about……?”

Now you’re giving off a fragrant scent all over your body! It’s so effective that even a human can be drawn to it dizzy, but in the case of scent-sensitive beastman, it’s likely that they are in heat with all their might and invite you to join them. You can’t complain if they push you down on the spot!”

“Oh, come on!”

“In cosmetics, only a tiny amount, just a drop is put. It is mainly used by noblemen’s wives to apply it to their skin before their weddings. The undiluted solution is used as an aphrodisiac.”

“Why don’t you tell me something so important! Ha, come on!”

“I’m sorry, I was, you know, I had a little too much going on yesterday.”

“Come to think of it, I was covered in that mucus yesterday.”

“But yesterday, the smell of the mucus itself was still too strong to have much of an aphrodisiac effect. It’s worse today, mixed with Lilia’s pheromones.”

“Huh? Are you okay? What will happen to me? In fact, I’ve been approached by guys I don’t know on the street or something, and I thought it was weird……”

“You can use the……bath. And since the smell might be transferred to your clothes, it’s best not to wear them until they are properly washed. You can wear the clothes as you see fit. I’ll be outside while you’re in the bath.”

“Oh, thanks.”

As soon as he said it, Rolf quickly left.

Lilia toddled into the bathroom, feeling thoroughly depressed.
