TENSEI SHITE INAKA DE SLOWLIFE WO OKURITAI

Chapter 95: Silver Wind



Chapter 95: Silver Wind

I was able to accompany the people from Toriela’s Firm to Kagura, and the next morning, I was already in front of the mansion since early in the morning.

Usually, I would be flirting with my lover - bed - at this time of the day, but I was able to wake up today without falling into the temptation.

This is also because I look forward to Kagura’s cuisine. A great difference from the time I went to the royal capital.

Besides, today is a practice day, but one of the reasons that my tension is high is that I was exempted since I’m going to go to Kagura.

While I was sitting on the bench in front of the entranceway and thinking about that kind of thing, Eleonora-neesan - who is standing next to me - looked at me sullenly.

「What's the matter?」

I felt a piercing gaze on my right cheek, so I turned my face.

「Can’t you go to Kagura after I come back from the royal capital?」

What are you talking about, now that I’m ready and currently in front of the mansion…?

「When will Eleonora-neesan return from the royal capital?」

「……probably, around the eight-month.」

「I don’t want to travel in a carriage in midsummer. Moreover, we’re going to be busy with the Harvest Festival immediately after you return, right?」

「If that’s the case, you can just go to Kagura after the Harvest Festival is over」

「It will be cold after the Harvest Festival isn’t it?」

When I replied to her decisively, Eleonora-neesan pushed my head.

I staggered since my head was being pushed.

When I looked at her to ask what she was doing, Eleonora-neesan snorted 「fuun!」 and turned away.

Even though now is the best timing to depart. I have no intention of giving it up no matter what.

After that, Eleonora-neesan and I just look in front of us in silence.

At the end of our sight are the workers of Toriela Firm diligently packing the luggage, and inspecting them.

Maybe they were already used to preparing for this kind of journey, after all, it was so different from when we went to the royal capital, they carried it out so quickly.

Naturally, there is no woman causing trouble like intentionally leaving her necessities behind just like last time, which is a relief.

「Al, did you have everything with you?」

Speak of the devil, the woman who caused trouble opened the door and came out.

There is also Sylvio-niisan and Nord-tousan behind her. Apparently, they came out to see me off.

「Un, I’ve already prepared my changes of clothes.」

If everything went smoothly, we’ll be arriving in Kagura after two weeks.

My luggage for this trip is just changes of clothes, food, and various daily necessities are prepared by Tori so I don’t have to worry about that.

Even if it became insufficient, there would be no problem since I could secretly take out some stuff from my storage.

「The duration of the trip this time is a long one, and there’s also the sea to cross. You have to properly listen to the people around you, alright? Also, don’t spend too much money.」

「Alright!」

I made an innocent smile, but I can’t accept the latter part.

Because there may be Japanese-style dishes and ingredients over there.

As for things that can’t be put inside the carriage or can’t be taken back home because of insufficient space, I can unreservedly store them using space magic.

Honestly, I don’t feel like I have enough money.

Oh well, once I got there, I can always visit Kagura using teleport, it would be great if I can bring some money to buy some stuff, though there’s no guarantee that I won’t do something reckless.

「………suspicious」

「If I use the ingredients from Kagura, I have a feeling that I can make delicious dishes and snacks.」

「You can borrow up to one white gold coin from Toriela Firm and use it.」

「No, you will not be able to store them even if you bought a lot, right?」

Maybe he was worried after looking at Elna-kaasan’s serious expression, Nord-tousan reproves us.

It’s scary since Elna-kaasan’s joke is hard to discern. Half of what she said this time is probably not a joke.

I got the permission so let’s spend a lot.

If it were me, I could store them all.

「I would be happy if you could buy me some books in Kagura.」

Sylvio-niisan said with a clean-cut smile on his face.

「Un, I understand. I’ll bring you some books about interesting stories and countries.」

Sylvio-niisan is a quiet boy who admires heroic tales, I’ll find some books that look good for him. I’m also interested in Kagura’s book. I wonder if they also have a story about Dragon Slayer over there?

「Also, please bring the fabric and clothes called kimono, alright. I heard from Toriela that it was really pretty. And please bring some accessories that have fine craftsmanship, okay!」

She seems to hate going far away but loves souvenirs.

In a good mood, Elna-kaasan asked for some souvenirs that she heard from Tori.

It’s important as it’s also my responsibility. If I bought something with no taste while she told me to buy a really pretty kimono and fabric, then she would be upset with me.

……this is a challenge. It is time to test Alfried’s ability as a man.

「Do you have something you want Eleonora-neesan?」

She would likely sulk if I just leave directly without listening to her request, so I have to ask even if she’s in a bad mood.

Immediately after that, Eleonora-neesan glanced at me as she crossed her arms.

「……I’ll just leave it to you, just like when you go to the royal capital.」

I see, it’s fine I bought her hair accessories again, huh? This is also a difficult request.

「I thought that Eleonora-neesan would ask for a katana or something.」

「I’ve heard about it from Tori, but it seems that it needs different care than a sword. I already have a sword, so I don’t have the time to take care of a katana. 」

Eleonora-neesan patted the wooden sword hanging on her waist *ponpon*.

「I, Indeed」

She wanted to hone her ability to use a sword.

Certainly, it would be strange to use a katana after practicing with a sword for a long time.

The way of fighting using a sword and a katana is very different, if you handle it badly, then your skill with it will just become half-assed.

Oh well, for Eleonora-neesan and Nord-tousan, even if no one taught them, I think they could handle it while saying 「I see, so this is how to use it」.

And then, when I was chatting with Bartolo, Mina, Sara, and Mel who came to send me off, Tori’s voice can be heard coming from the carriage.

「Alfried-sama! I’ll introduce you to the escort adventurers-san, here!」

When I turned around, there were four people who looked like armed adventurers. And for some reason, there’s also Roomba who was talking with them a short distance away.

Now that the preparation is going to finish soon, there will be a brief introduction with the adventurers who will be the escort and then we will depart.

「Then, I’m going!」

I started running after saying that to everyone. ‘Take care’, ‘You have to properly buy the souvenirs okay’, with such words on my back, I rush toward Tori’s direction.

「These people here are the adventurers 『Silver Wind』!」

Introduced by Tori, a man took a step forward.

It’s a young man who looks somewhat wild with short blond hair and green eyes. He wears something like a breastplate as armor, I guess he's a swordsman who fights in front?

「I’m the leader, Mort. I look forward to working with you this time!」

Speaking of adventurers, they had the image of being rude and vulgar, but this young man named Mort slightly bowed his head as he introduced himself and was very polite. And he’s surprisingly polite despite of his appearance.

I wonder if personality is also important to become a B-rank adventurer. I can’t think of him as Roomba’s junior.

「Allow me to accompany you this time, my name is Alfried Slowlett. Likewise, I’ll be in your care.」

I slightly bowed to everyone, then Mort stepped back and the next man came forward.

Although he’s a bit taller than Mort, he looks short maybe because he hunches, and he looked sloppy.

He doesn’t look that old, but I wonder if maybe he looks short because he hunched, and he also looks sloppy.

If he tidied up his appearance, I think he would look a bit austere and cool. Looking at his clothes, this person is pretty much also a front-liner. I wonder if it’s alright? Him being a vanguard…

「I…my name is Irvine.」

Irvine looked somewhat listless as he said that while scratching his head, then the female mage behind him hit his stomach with her wand.

It seems like he’s not very good at talking formally.

「I’m Aleutia, the magician」

「I, I’m the same as her, my name is Ilya Ishtall, a magician.」

After that, two women lined up side by side and introduced themselves. The both of them are holding a wand in their hand and wearing a light, corset-like attire, so they're probably the magicians in the party.

They look fresh to me since the only magician that I’m familiar with is Elna-kaasan. I look forward to seeing what kind of magic they will use.

The woman who hit Irvine with her wand before is the one with deep blue hair, Aleutia.

The other one is the pink-haired Ilya, she has a slightly timid atmosphere around her.

「Ishtall is a noble house right?」

「Ah, yes! Ishtall is an Earl house.」

Oh dear, isn’t this person here higher ranked than me, who is the one being escorted? She’s an earl daughter you know.

Maybe she realized it after seeing my expression turn awkward, Ilya said while she waved her hands around.

「But, I’m the youngest child, you don’t have to worry about it! Various things happened, and right now I’m an adventurer.」

I see, various things. As a matter of fact, there might be various reasons such as that she’s the daughter of the earl's mistress, or that she came from a branch family or something. Let’s not ask for the details.

「But you know, the Ishtall’s house is amazing aren’t they?」

「Amazing?」

Irvine approached and spoke to me familiarly. I wonder if he’s a sociable person?

Behind him, Aleutia frowns looking at him acting familiar with me but looks like she decided not to interrupt because I’m showing an interest in what he said.

「Especially Ilya’s oneechan, on top of having a good figure she’s also the princess’s guard maid you see. Of course, Ilya is also amazing, and her magic ability is also excellent.」

Both of his arms made an hourglass shape as Irvine told me that. I see, he likes this kind of topic, huh. He’s the same as the villagers.

Looking at Ilya, she looked happy seeing her sister and herself being praised, but she smiles wryly because of the unnecessary comment mixed in.

「I see. Though I don’t know whether Ilya’s oneechan is amazing because of her good figure or her being the princess guard maid.」

「Well, of course, it’s because of her goo――」

「Yes yes, let’s stop right there alright. I’m going to tell you to Sariya-san you know?」

Aleutia pulled Irvine’s ear as he’s talking in a good mood.

I wanted to hear about the specifics a little more, but then we won’t be able to leave. I’ll ask him later.

「Well then, now that the introduction is over, it’s time to leave, hey!」
