I Got Transferred in the Middle of a Mountain. In Retaliation, I Chose Amenity over Strength.

e with a huge hood, cowboy boots with high heels, that’s all.
「Shadow spirits and light spirits, I guess? Can you guys darken the shadow falling on my face, so that other people can’t see it? 」

I donned the robe and pulled the hood low over my eyes before calling out to the spirits.
My reflection in the mirror showed a guy with indiscernible face, as if a strong light deepened the shadow casted by the hood…actually, it’s not ‘as if‘, there’s really a bright light overhead and it looked like I’m under a spotlight, so I adjusted it for a bit.

The robe’s hem touched the floor despite me wearing these high-heeled boots.
Okay, great, it must look like I’m four inches taller than Ash now.
Ah, no, I want to look a little bit taller than this.

「Can you guys carry me so I’m around 10cm above the ground? 」

My body gently floated up, but I’m still stable.
Yeah, no need to tell me, I know I don’t need these boots anymore.

「Ah, please help me secure my hood so it won’t fall back, and the robe too so that they can’t see my feet underneath the robe — ah, hey, don’t hang on the hood, please, anything but that.
」

I adjusted the minute details, since I already achieved the look I’ve been aiming for.

Alright, now I’m a tall guy covered in a black robe with this.
Well, taking all things into consideration, I don’t look like anything more than a suspicious guy, but maybe that’s just my imagination, so let’s ignore it.

I 【 Teleport 】 to an open place near the camping site.
Shall I try to go there unnoticed? Nah, I guess it’s fine even if they spot me right away.

I can hear the uproar at the site as I draw closer.

「 Excuse me.
You all seem to be busy, so sorry for the intrusion.
」
「 !? 」
「 Who are you!? 」

Hm, even if I say I’m Jean, nobody will understand aside from Ash and the other guys.
If I introduced myself by my rank, then ‘I’m a Copper ranked Adventurer’ is it?

Still, why are you all guys wearing the same color of clothes, how can I differentiate you? Why don’t you all learn from Chris! Ah, no, it’s fine, I already found my target.

「 No need to bother, I have business with the thing inside this man’s body.
」
I finally spotted the guy, so I grabbed the head of the spirit sticking out of his chest, and forcibly pulled it out.

Eh, why did it feel like my fingers slipped through inside the man’s chest just now…? He doesn’t seem wounded, so I guess it’s fine.
It must be me imagining things.

「 Dark Spirit!? 」
The prairie dog pointed its sword towards me — oh, I mean, the Gold-ranked giant did.

「 Is he possessed? But this guy here is the one acting abnormally….
」
The robed woman glanced underneath her feet, and the guy slain by the archer is there.

Ah, he’s alive.

「 【 Heal 】 」

「 Ugh….
」
The guy recovered, so he’s conscious now.

「 What!? 」
Everyone was dumbstruck as they stared at the guy lying by the woman’s feet.

「 He managed to heal him from that state…What on earth are you? And those spirits — 」
The Gold ranked beauty asked me amidst the roars of shock.

Ahh, as I thought, she can see the spirits, huh.
I usually ask the spirits in my destatination to maintain some distance away from me whenever I teleport, but I’m enlisting their help now so I’m letting them freely move.
They ended up bustling around me, though! Hah, but the spirits that are helping me fix my robe are still underneath it, you know!

「 That guy over there is the first one to be possessed, but I’m not sure where he picked it up.
Be careful.
」

I can sense the agitation among the people surrounding us, so I escaped with 【 Teleport 】 after leaving those words behind.

Ash and the other guys were staring so hard that they almost bore a hole in me, but I requested the spirits to lower my pitch and tone, so I’m pretty sure no one would have been any wiser! Everything’s fine ー probably!

Ah, I’m still gripping the black eagle spirit now.
