14-14. Bolhart (1)
Satou’s here. eting a friend in an unexpected place makes for a lively conversation. There were even tis when the day ended before you realized it even though you t at noon.

"What a wonderful scenery."
"Yes, this must be the famous great river of Oyugock Dukedom."
Princess Shistina replied to Zena.
Our small airship is currently going upstream in the sky above the great river.
The other girls are also enjoying the scenery from the viewing deck.
This place is protected with [Canopy] magic, it’s a safe design that won’t even let their skirts flipped by the wind.
"Nice view~?"
"Tama, that place is dangerous nodesu!"
"It’s awright~"
While that may be so, Tama, doing a daunting pose on top of the thin railing is a bit.
"Master, it’s a flock of migratory birds so I report."
"Nn, flamingos."
Nana and Mia are pointing to a flock of fatty pink colored birds that are crossing the large river.
They’re a bit different than the flamingos I know, but they’re probably the flamingos here.
Arisa who was looking at the spectacle listlessly suddenly looks taken aback and then she swings her arms.
"Those who are free, look to the port side!"
"Arisa? That’s the starboard you know?"
Lulu corrected Arisa’s mistake.
Looking at Arisa’s awkward expression and her theatrical tone, it must have been so kind of parody.
"Master, I caught two birds for now, I wonder if they’re delicious roasted whole?"
There are two flamingos with wired harpoons on Liza’s arms.
--Liza, too quick.
"If I’m not mistaken, it tastes like chicken, should we barbecue it?"
"Yes! Once I’ve drained the blood, I’ll strip off the beautiful feathers."
"Yeah, I’m counting on you."
I’ve eaten so flamingo in a trip abroad back then, but I never thought that I would get to eat it in another world too.
We arrived at the grapevine mountains in the evening of the day.
There was still so ti until the ships cruising the large river stopped coming, so we went to the herd of Sky Deers in the neighboring summit to kill ti.
"Prey~?"
"Pochi will catch them this ti nodesu!"
"You can’t."
"Pochi can’t nanodesu?"
"Yup, you can’t."
The beastkin girls wanted to hunt the sky deers, but since I had a little debt with the Sky Deers, I told them not to.
The slightly downhearted Pochi looked cute, but I can’t yield here.
Afterward I negotiated with the managent of the Phantom Firefly Cavern’s service and got the permission to directly cruise in the cavern by half-subrging the airship in the water.
"Oh my! This place is the famous Phantom Firefly Cavern isn’t it! Mrs. Litmaiya boasted about it when she got married."
"Hee, that stiff principal did huh~"
While the princess who ca here for the first ti and Arisa were conversing about a common acquaintance, they look around the Phantom Firefly Cavern.
Zena-san who also saw the cavern for the first ti looked at the ceiling too much, she lost her balance and fell back.
"Kya"
"Are you alright?"
"Y-yes! Thank you Satou-san."
Supported by , Zena-san seems to be embarrassed with her blunder, she looks really bashful.
"Kuh, he naturally raised a flag!"
"Mwu, guilty."
Arisa and Mia muttered sothing, but everyone was able to thoroughly enjoy the Phantom Firefly Cavern without any trouble.
It’s possible to enjoy the ti here no matter how many tis you co here huh.

After we had done greeting the viceroy of Gururian city, we changed our clothings to commoner clothes and took a walk around the city.
We’re split into several groups since it’d be too conspicuous if we were in one large group.
The ones who are with are Arisa, Lady Karina and Sera.
"Is this gururian? I like ankoromochi more desuwa."
We got so huge adzuki beans after defeating plant-type monsters [Adzuki Shooters] during our leveling in the labyrinth, so there was a ti when I made so koshian and ankoromochi.
That reminds , her face was full of bean jam along with Pochi and Tama wasn’t it.
"Y-you’re eating it with bare hands?"
"That’s right! You don’t split them with chopsticks, the right manners to do it is by heartily biting them whole!"
Arisa instills so manners to the bewildered upper-class Sera.
She pushes her face asking for to wipe the bean jam around her mouth.
Geez, what a hopeless girl.
"I did this to service Master."
....Don’t lie.
I stopped Sera who looked like she was going to follow Arisa’s nonsense, and wiped Lady Karina who was too late to be stopped.
For so reason, Sera who should be spotless looked vexed. It’s a mystery.
"Ah! Noble onii-chan!"
A little girl who was cleaning a hardware store found and then happily ran to .
....Who is she again?
"Look, she was one of the girls who rode in our carriage when we ca to the city back then."
I recalled her with Arisa’s help.
Ah, co to think of it, we did let a pair of villager sisters who were looking for employnt to ride in our carriage.
"Is your big sister healthy?"
"Un, she is!"
The little girl’s line of sight was locked on to the gururian that I was eating, so I let her eat it.
She’s in the middle of her work, but a mouthful should be fine.
"Yummyy!"
I intended to only give her a mouthful, but since it looked like she was even going to eat my hand, I gave her the whole gururian.
"Now then, Master, your hand please."
I pinned and stopped Arisa who was going to lick the remaining red bean paste on my hand.
Sera presented a handkerchief, but I used life magic [Soft Wash] to clean the paste instead of dirtying the handkerchief.
The little girl and Arisa said, "What a waste!"
The two must have different anings of that.
An acquaintance showed up from the hardware shop that the girl was working at.
It’s Galhar-shi, the dwarf magic shop manager who helped in defeating the [Golden Wild Boar King], I’m greatly indebted to him.
The big sister villager girl ca out from behind him, but I’ll leave it Arisa to talk with her.
I lightly put up my hand to respond the villager girl big sister who bowed her head.
"It’s been awhile Galhar-san."
"If it isn’t Satou-dono!"
Galhar-shi firmly shakes my hand for the reunion.
Thinking it was strange that he ca out of a hardware store instead of a magic shop, I asked him about it.
"The shopkeeper here has a hobby y’see. I ca here to challenge him in an 『Arithtic Ga』. I couldn’t do it at all when Driar-shi beca a mayor, but he, Jojori and I learned 『Advanced Arithtic』 under Driar-shi you see."
Galhar-shi had a faraway look toward the sky while saying, "It was fun."
I asked him about his plan after this, it seed that he’s going to take a carriage to Bolhart city by the request of a rchant friend.
"I plan to go to Bolhart city too, would you like to go together?"
"Is it alright? Then maybe I should take the ride."
Since he readily consented like that, it was decided that we were to go together but--.
"Eh? Airship? Personal airships, aren’t those only the Boruenan Light Ships? Eh? Is it because of Misanalia-sama?"
--And so he was panicking for the first half of the trip.
I feel like I sohow did a bad thing.
"Are you alright?"
"Yeah sorry for troubling you...."
After drinking a jug of ale, he changed back to his dandy calm state.
"S-so, are you going to Teacher’s forge in Bolhart city?"
"Yes, there’s that too.... I’ve got my hands on so God tal (Orichalcon), so I plan to present them to Dohar-shi."
"God tal (Orichalcon)? The one manufactured by High Elves-sama?"
I wonder if it’s known as sothing High Elves created?
Even without High Elves, you can manufacture them as long as you have so philosopher’s stone and high level skills.
In fact, I can manufacture them just fine.
"No, I got it from a little connection of mine."
"Beautiful.... So this is God tal (Orichalcon). The ultimate tal used to create sacred treasures."
I showed him an Orichalcon Ingot while saying so, and then Galhar-shi muttered alone like he was thinking hard.
"If we have this, then teacher will surely....Jojori...."
