I signalled Frenssen to fetch a blue box. Inside of it are items purchased by the rchants corps. So items will be pretty useful to since they are similar to the items in the ga.
I retrieved one item. It might be better to test it first before we all use it, but well this item works in the ga so it should be fine, right..?
This is the thing that I want to show..
What is that?
Ah, I rember! Isnt that one of the items the rchants brought in so town?
It seems like Feli recognized this. Its the Skywalk. Its a keychain-sized pair of adventurer shoes decorated with feathers. Its a common design in my past life.
Though I hope Feli rembers the na of the town, not just so town since Felis mory of town nas is important for my plan.
So what is this? Mazell ask with a curious tone
Its a magic item that can be used by a party.
Maybe not many people know about this item. Its true that when I was playing the ga and Im still in the royal capital, the tutorial to use this item didnt exist.
So, how do you use this item?
Usually it will be used by a party or a team, but I think it can be used as an individual too.
In the ga, Laura the High Priest and an old Wizard nad Uwe will also be part of Mazells party. But here, the two of them have yet to join the party and in their place, theres and Frennsen so it shouldnt exceed the maximum number of people this item can move.
For our first ti, I think going to Hafen town will be fine. After telling Frenssen to hold the box securely, I give a Skywalk to Feli.
Feli, hold this and think about Hafen town, then say to Hafen
I dont really understand why you want to do that, but sure. To Hafen.
Right after Feli said that, the surrounding space beca distorted. In the ga, both the moving and the sound effects are the sa as an old ani so it gives out a cheap feeling. I feel kinda sick since my semicircular canals are being shaked.
By the ti we finally regained our senses, the whole group was standing right in front of Hafen town. Yup, it worked.
Hey, what in the world is this!?
Luguentz said that while staring at . Well, thats an understandable reaction.
Lets enter the town first. Its going to be troubleso if demons attack us here.
Right. But you will explain everything thoroughly later, right, Welner?
Oh, even Mazell speaks up. Well, of course he will, huh. Still, I can conclude from this that Mazell didnt know about Skywalk. I wonder if he will buy my explanation later.
Frenssen took care of the gatekeeper. Our cover story is that we are a noble accompanied by his guards thats in the middle of travelling incognito to play. I think that Frenssen is also confused like Mazell and company, but he still remained calm enough to talk with the gatekeeper. Surprisingly, Frenssen might be quite competent.
Co to think of it, we were teleported to a secluded place. Im glad. I an, if a group of people suddenly popped out of thin air, wont it cause a ruckus?
Now then, shall we listen to your explanation?
Dont look at like that.
We entered a bar and placed a simple order. When the food was finally laid out on our table, Mazell and Elrich were glaring at while Luguentzs expression was practically like interrogating a criminal.
This item is called Skywalk. It cant be acquired in the capital. I think you need to buy it from towns far from the capital.
Ah, I see!
Out of the blue, Feli extended his arm and said this. He also said, Oh, it disappeared because it was a single-use item! I guess it literally disappeared like in the ga.
Just like Feli said, its a single-use item. As you have experienced, its an item that uses magic to transport you to any place youve been to in an instant.
Wait, that kind of thing actually exists!?
Frenssen gasped in surprise. Hmm even though Skywalk cant be purchased in the capital, it is still strange for even people that served a noble house to not know of its existence. I should investigate this matter later.
I also dont know the principle behind it. It was apparently a relic of an ancient kingdom. Using it is simple, as you all have seen earlier.
It is simple to use but I didnt know this kind of thing existed
As if asking, where did you learn about this item? Mazell looked at . Well, Ive prepared an excuse for that.
When I was investigating the ancient kingdom because of the equipnt that I wanted the rchant party to buy, I discovered this item.
I see.
Mazell looked at the remaining Skywalks in the box fixedly. Other than the Skywalks, theres also a dicine bottle that looks like potion, but is not a potion. Should I also explain about it?
While I was thinking like that, Elrich, who was also looking at the box, turned his attention toward .
Could this power be a national secret?
I dont think it is.
At the very least, Ive never heard about this item from people in this world. Though, I have to agree that it was strange for items that no one knew how to use to be so expensive.
Maybe the seller just sold it with a hefty price because its a premium item that could only be acquired by excavation? Even if thats the reason why these items are expensive, the fact that all vendors in all towns sold this item with the exact sa price is also strange. In the past, I didnt get bothered by this because it was a ga.
Maybe only people of certain professions have the knowledge about how to use this item. Well, even if thats true, it didnt matter. All that matters is that this item is useful.
Even if these items are national secrets, it should be fine for you all to know how to use them, especially for the sake of the future.
What do you an?
Mazell asked doubtfully. Well, I knew that in the future they will be pulled into a lot of hassle.
Now that all of you have fought the demon army and Mazell have even killed a Demon General, Im sure that in the future you will all be pulled into a political affair.
I guess thats given.
Luguentz seed to have understood, and Elrich nodded.
Although His Highness seems to have no intention to shackle all of you using politics at least for now, it doesnt an other nobles wont try to.
I still dont really understand.
I shrug my shoulders in response to Mazells words.
What I an is that in the future there might be a noble that wants to shackle all of you using politics. If that happens, you can use this to run away to another town.
Hahaha, I see!
Laughter escaped Felis mouth. After that, Feli turned to with a serious expression.
Big bro, does that apply to too?
Yes. From the perspective of nobles, you are part of Mazells companion. Plus, I also have a request for you, Feli.
A request?
For now, only Feli and Frenssen have gone to various towns. But since Frenssen is no expert in combat, only Feli would be able to help Mazells party in their journey.
On top of that, Feli was originally supposed to join Mazells party after the Veritza Fortress incident. I will brush off the fact that he had joined earlier than he did in the ga.
Youve been to many towns so I want to ask you to help Mazell and the others in their journey.
Cant they just use this thing to travel to all towns Ive visited so I dont have to accompany them?
Feli is right. Thats possible but the problem is
You can buy 3 swords in the capital with one of these.
Eek
This thing is too expensive. Actually, the amount of gold and silver coins I gave to Feli when we first t wouldnt be enough to buy even one of these. In the ga, the amount of money given to the heros party by the king was also not enough to buy Skywalk. The gas king is too stingy.
One other problem is that theres a chance that the current Mazells party wont be able to defeat demons that appeared in far away towns. The report from the rchant party said that the appearance rates of demons have increased. In the future, the appearance rates of demons might increase even more.
Currently, I cant let Mazells party go to far away towns unless its an ergency. After all, the cheat that Mazells party has right now is just the party mbers, my knowledge of the ga, and equipnt. I doubt the overall strength of the current Mazells party can handle stronger demons in far away towns.
Thats why I want you to accompany them to visit various towns as their guide, Feli. I will also appreciate it if you can share any information or unusual stories youve heard on the journey with .
I understand.
Feli and Mazell agreed without any fight, but it seems like they noticed the fact that I didnt trust their current combat capability. Originally, I thought they would get angry about that.
In exchange, I have a request for you, Welner.
Sure. Whats it?
I also feel indebted to you so I dont mind hearing your request.
