It Seems The Production Skill Acquired In Another World Is The Strongest (LN) Book 2: Chapter 4

Chapter 4 I Witnessed An Unexpected Side of Milia

It was three days later, on the night of June 14th, that we finished all the preparations for our journey.

I guess were all set.

Good work, Kou. Our departure is in two days, so lets take it easy tomorrow.

Agreed. I think I can sleep until noon for the first ti in a while.

Well see each other again on the day of departure. Well, good night.

Yeah, good night.

After I dropped Iris off at ho, I returned to the Quiet Moon Pavilion.

It was a little past ten oclock in the evening.

As I walked by the front desk, I was stopped by a male employee.

You must be Kou Kousaka-sama, correct? You have received a letter from Relic Di Hubert-sama. Ive put it in the doorpost of your room, so please check it.

Relic is the third son of a duke family, a slender young man with a scholarly appearance.

We beca acquainted when I discovered the underground city of an ancient civilization, and weve been good friends ever since.

Currently, Relic is not in Aunen.

He should be on his way to the city of Millard where the mansion of Count Millard, the lord who rules this region, is located.

I opened the letter from Relic in my room, thinking about that.

The writing was polite and easy to read, giving a good sense of his personality.

Dear Ko-san.

It seems that the lord, Count Millard, is staying in the northeastern city of Surier to recuperate. Im curious about his condition, so Im going to visit him.

On a different subject, I heard that Kou-san is going to receive an award in the royal capital! Congratulations! Im planning to attend the ceremony, so Ill see you there!

Relic Di Hubert.

The casual text was devoid of nobility, but considering Relics character, it was understandable.

But Surier?

It was one of the towns where Iris and I would be stopping on our journey starting the day after tomorrow. It is famous for its hot springs, and we plan to spend two nights and three days touring the hot springs.

Maybe we can et Relic there.

With that thought in mind, I put the letter in my [Item Box].

After taking a shower and lying down on the bed, sleepiness ca quickly.

The past few days had been busy with preparations for the journey, but now that it was over, perhaps my thread of tension had been broken.

* * *

The next day, I woke up to the voice of [Full Assist].

The system rewrite has been completed.

The individual nad Surara will be able to leave the underground city.

Please specify the place and ti where you plan to et up.

It seems that the system has been rewritten.

My modern Japanese senses tell that this kind of work is bound to have errors, but there has been no trouble or delay. Its a wonderful story. My previous workplace should learn from this.

Fuwah

I let out a small yawn and raised myself up from the bed.

In front of was a pale blue window with a map of the area around Aunen.

Do I use this to specify the eting point?

I thought as I looked at the map.

The road from Aunen to Toue heads a little to the southeast at first and then curves sharply to the northeast.

You can imagine it as the letter J tilted slightly to the right.

At the bottom of the large southeast curve, it skirts the Cello Forest, which is not far from the entrance to the underground city. It would be the perfect place to et up with Surara.

I reached for the window map and touched the bottom edge of the curve.

Imdiately after that, I hear a voice in my mind saying, Do you want to use this as the eting point? I nodded my head slightly.

With a slight nod, the map window disappeared, and a new window appeared.

There was a dial clock on it.

I guess the next step is to specify the eting ti.

The clocks operation was similar to setting a tir on a smartphone. I scrolled the numbers around with my finger and set it for tomorrow afternoon.

Okay, I guess thats it.

I took a deep breath and lay down in bed again before I knew it, I had fallen asleep again.

The next ti I woke up was in the early afternoon.

After leaving the Quiet Moon Pavilion, I finished my al outside and went for a walk.

As I walked leisurely through the city, I ca to a place called Bookstore Street. As the na suggests, there are many bookstores lined up on both sides of the street.

The image of a fantasy world is that of the Middle Ages, but the civilization of this world has achieved its own developnt through magic technology, and printing technology has already beco commonplace.

Bookstores sell novels, travel magazines, gourt guides, and even weekly gossip magazines, creating an atmosphere similar to that of modern Japan.

Since Im here, I might as well go shopping.

Im going on a journey tomorrow, and I dont have a single tourist guide. This would be a big problem.

I skimd through it and bought sothing that looked good.

In addition, I bought five novels. Ill read them during the carriage ride.

Its hard to carry around all the books Ive bought, but I have an [Item Box]. If I store them here, they weigh practically nothing and dont take up much space. Its great.

Just as I was leaving the bookstore with a smile on my face, a woman crossed the street in front of .

She was carrying a large paper bag as she staggered down the street. She was dressed in a white blouse, and a navy blue flared skirt. It was simple but elegant.

Her fluffy chestnut-colored hair is arranged in a braid Huh?

Ive seen her face before.

Shes Milia, isnt she?

Im not sure if I should call out to her or not, but the woman who looked like Milia let out a small scream.

Kyaa!?

It seems that she stumbled on the ground, and her body stumbled forward.

The woman managed to stay on her feet, but because her center of gravity was shifted forward, the paper bag ripped open in a big way, and the many books that were stuffed inside it fell out all over the place.

Of course, I wasnt going to let it go.

I selected the Fenrir Coat from my [Item Box] and imdiately activated theGod Speed Blessing EX.

I ran through the slow-motion world and caught the books that spilled out of the paper bag.

Twelve books in total, quite a few.

Ill put them in the [Item Box] for now.

When Im done, I turn to the woman. The sowhat young and cute face was definitely Milia herself.

The ti that has passed up to this point is about two seconds, and I cancel theGod Speed Blessing EX.
