The book is as thick as a brick, and is the size of Luz's female palm. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

From the beginning, the "special aroma" of "Luz without smell" came from that book.

Luz smiled proudly as if looking at a treasure, and began to flip through the books.

Page 1, page 2, page 3. The number of times she turned the pages gradually increased. The layered rich scent slowly disintegrates and spreads to all parts of the surrounding area.

「………」

It's a prison with a lot of beasts. There are some breeds of meadows that have quite sensitive noses. If someone is in the closed passage connecting the entrances to the cages, the tsunami of the smell of the fan wind will wake up even if they sleep deeply.

My ears heard the commotion of an unknown beast in the depths of the passage on the left.

"The 'every piece of paper' in this book represents the smell of every object. At first, it wasn't like that, and the paper only had its "original taste", so I made each piece have its own unique taste. However, not all the pages have changed, and there are some pages that have not yet been "written" to remain "original". As for the reason for the change in the smell of the paper, it is because I used my "half-human, half-beast ability", so I will talk about it later...... Don't look like you don't believe it, there are really thousands of flavors in the book. I'll prove it to you. Like this is the high mountains in the far north of the Venola Empire, the smell of "ice crystal tears" piled up on the top of the mountain, how can it be, it's very powerful. In our hot desert, it's incredible to be able to experience one of the cold phenomena. If you want to smell it, you can lick it with your tongue by the way, come on, come on, you're welcome......

Luz picked up the open book in one hand, and a wave of smell blew around it.

I looked at it with disgust...... The cover has no glittering ornamentation or special patterns, and the appearance is only a plain earthy brown. And the inner pages are yellowed, and the edges of each page are brittle and uneven, like the jagged edges of a leaf.

Luz's other free hand was ready to tear off the designated page...... altogether.

Hey, the pages moved, avoiding the fate of being torn.

The thick book made a strange sound of "croaking and croaking" as if it had come to life and woke up.

The book on the girl's lap bounced and shook violently, and the inner pages crackled like a castanets. That weird bouncing rhythm is reminiscent of a frog...... No, it's the bulky toad, and just thinking about it, the earthy brown book cover shows patches of black spots of different sizes.

"Wait, wait, don't move. Okay, be nice. I know that when the skin is torn off (the page) you will be in pain. But you're going to peel off your skin, so I'll help you get rid of the old and replace it with the new early, so you should be very grateful for accepting it. 」

"Quack, you're not my 'master'. 」

"But, she commanded you to follow me. 」

"She only wants me to follow you and help you collect the 'rare smells of the world', but she didn't say that you can take away the 'smells' stored in my skin without permission. Croak. 」

"It's a dead head, it's a temporary loan. This is the investment necessary to get a better "treasure". Ahhhh......h Don't jump around, come over to me, wasn't it okay before? Why do you suddenly lose your temper, don't run!"

Ruz tried to catch up with the other man, prostrate on the filthy ground that had not been brushed for a long time. Her eyes were at the same level as her target, and she jumped and ran to chase the "croak toad" who had accidentally slipped out of her arms. One time I ran from left to right in my field of vision, and then I flew sideways from right to the other end.

The dimly lit passageway echoed with a noisy noise.

Regardless of whether her clothes would get dirty or not, Luz lunged forward to try to catch them, but she missed and slammed into the ground.

…… Tragic end.

"Woo, stupid head...... What a stupid toad brain!"

Luz pressed her sore nose, picked up the white mask with half a smiling face in one hand, and hung it back on the left side of her ear, and continued to chase the book that had grown legs and moved.

The magic is happening again.

The black-and-white haired girl claims to be a special body (defective product) of a "half-human, half-beast", and sure enough, as she said, only the physical strength of ordinary humans, no wonder catching a toad seems difficult.

Her large white dress blouse was sewn with layers of lace ribbons, the waist was designed to match her figure, and her long skirt with a hem slightly above the knee bloomed like a lily with each jump...... But the garments, with the ingenuity of the designer and the expensive fabrics, were arbitrarily messed up and torn by her, and I am afraid that they would arouse the envy of those who want to enjoy luxury.

…… I even want Toad to understand the concept of investment, and when I think about it, I think Luz is not very smart.

That refers to the general situation.

I don't have any memories of myself in my head, but at least I remember the knowledge of the life-type beast - the book of the croak toad.

The Book of Quacks and Toads - It is an improvement of the original beast "Quack Toad".

"Quack toad" lives in the swamp. The environment is humid and warm, and the soil is rich in nutrients, making it a suitable breeding ground for mosquitoes, which the toads feed on. The tool used to catch mosquitoes is the epidermis, which continuously secretes mucus. It looks for swarms of floaters that gather in the air, and then plunges into it, and the skin fluid all over its body is sticky with dense swarms of mosquitoes. Then, it quickly peels off its skin, and the leather coat is kneaded into a black pressed ball, which becomes a delicious meal rich in protein.

Humans use the ability of the croak toad to quickly shed its skin, or the skin of mass production, to make a variety of multi-purpose tools for their own use - the quack toad book is one of the tools.

But the "Toad Book" that was still running around in the passage was a little different, and it seemed to be too smart...... It can mimic human language and even understand human speech. The case of the beast with high intelligence?? , except for the princess, it is not that it has never appeared, but it is an extremely rare minority.

Luz couldn't catch the "Quack Toad Book", and she couldn't keep up with the other party's vigorous movements, so she had to threaten them slightly, and said with a smile.

That's even weirder.
