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 ti 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 ti 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 - looked at 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 co 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 midsumr. Moreover, we’re going to be busy with the Harvest Festival imdiately 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 ti, which is a relief.
「Al, did you have everything with you?」
Speak of the devil, the woman who caused trouble opened the door and ca out.
There is also Sylvio-niisan and Nord-tousan behind her. Apparently, they ca out to see 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 beca insufficient, there would be no problem since I could secretly take out so stuff from my storage.
「The duration of the trip this ti 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 ho 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 so money to buy so stuff, though there’s no guarantee that I won’t do sothing 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 ti is probably not a joke.
I got the permission so let’s spend a lot.
If it were , I could store them all.
「I would be happy if you could buy so books in Kagura.」
Sylvio-niisan said with a clean-cut smile on his face.
「Un, I understand. I’ll bring you so books about interesting stories and countries.」
Sylvio-niisan is a quiet boy who admires heroic tales, I’ll find so 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 so accessories that have fine craftsmanship, okay!」
She seems to hate going far away but loves souvenirs.
In a good mood, Elna-kaasan asked for so souvenirs that she heard from Tori.
It’s important as it’s also my responsibility. If I bought sothing with no taste while she told to buy a really pretty kimono and fabric, then she would be upset with .
……this is a challenge. It is ti to test Alfried’s ability as a man.
「Do you have sothing 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.
Imdiately after that, Eleonora-neesan glanced at 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 sothing.」
「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 ti 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 ti.
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 beco 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 l who ca to send 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 ard adventurers. And for so 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 sowhat wild with short blond hair and green eyes. He wears sothing 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 ti!」
Speaking of adventurers, they had the image of being rude and vulgar, but this young man nad 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 beco a B-rank adventurer. I can’t think of him as Roomba’s junior.
「Allow to accompany you this ti, my na is Alfried Slowlett. Likewise, I’ll be in your care.」
I slightly bowed to everyone, then Mort stepped back and the next man ca 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 na is Irvine.」
Irvine looked sowhat 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 sa as her, my na is Ilya Ishtall, a magician.」
After that, two won 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 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 , 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 ca from a branch family or sothing. 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 familiarly. I wonder if he’s a sociable person?
Behind him, Aleutia frowns looking at him acting familiar with 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 that. I see, he likes this kind of topic, huh. He’s the sa as the villagers.
Looking at Ilya, she looked happy seeing her sister and herself being praised, but she smiles wryly because of the unnecessary comnt 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 ti to leave, hey!」
