141 Chapter 8-17Second Journey

"Intrusion Successful... Target Found"

What's going on outside today is that it's still dark because the sun hasn't risen and no one is walking outside except the craftsmen and patrolling guards who start work early in the morning.

It was my parents' workshop I broke into. Although it seems to be trespassing, permission is granted to the parent's apprentice for once. I remembered last night that I had business with the guild (selling goblins), so I went for a walk, and I met with my parents' apprentices rolling out to the tavern on the way, so I made plans for this one. Incidentally, the disciples were bought by letting the liquor hold a little (in the Dwarf sensation) to the point of being able to drink. The amount of the parent's sale was one silver coin.

"Ugh - I slept well...... what the heck!!!

The parent who finally woke up realized she was tied to a pillar and shouted out.

"Shut up, oh..."

"You don't think it's annoying in the morning? Oh... booze madness"

"That's why your wife can get away with it, you idiot... you big idiot"

The last one was genuine, but it was the funniest in content. It should be noted that it was the disciple's representative masked blacksmith (apprentice), A. B. C., who made his parents curse.

They knew I was going to tie my parents up, so they came anticipating the timing.

"No, no kidding, untie the rope. And you're not ashamed to dress like that, you guys? Especially Tenma."

The disciples are usually just dressed with paper bags on their heads, but I wanted them to stop being such a sober scratch because I was dressed with job qualities in King's Capital (but the mask is a killer specification that will be out on Friday). You're not dressed like this with me... maybe.

"I can't believe this is the end of the joke... Parents, do you have anything to say to me about Ryden?

"About what? I don't know."

I gave instructions to my parents to open their mouths and let Ryden out in front of me.

"You don't even know this?

So far, my parents finally confessed to me about setting up this gimmick in secret. Apparently, the parents tried to see if Ryden could make an attack like "Brace," but they decided that it was not possible in strength to produce high-output magic like brace on a boulder, eventually connecting it to slallin space. The magic formations and protrusions that were written on the throat seem remnants of that time.

"Finally, say it, Tenma. Actually, Ryden's head is still unfinished."

I was wondering what to say, and my parents were going to put a bicorn horn on Ryden's head, apparently. Anything, he thought it was better to look like a bicone.

"Moreover, cornering also leads to the reinforcement of Lyden's lightning attributes..."

There seems to be no certainty, but if bicone consciousness is strong, using bicone material to bring the shape closer together is not negative, even if it is positive. So my parents were right, I decided to give them the corner of the bicone and put it on my head. Either way, so far the corners of the bicone have had no use, so if Ryden's performance is likely to improve, you should use it there.

"It's just that one of them is broken from the roots, so it's gonna be shorter than the real thing."

They said it would be done late and tomorrow evening, so I decided to leave Ryden to go shopping.

The first thing I want is sugar and salt. As for spices, they have a lot of specialties from the Southern Autonomous Region, so I think it would be good to procure them locally and plan to only buy the minimum necessary.

After hanging out in the city until that evening, sugar and salt could be bought more than double what was planned, and spices could be prepared as planned. There were many unscheduled purchases, but most of them are fruits and vegetables and so on, so it shouldn't be a waste of time shopping.

Back to the carriage, Maria and the others were relaxed. However, I didn't see Teeda, so I asked Chris, who was also relaxed, and apparently Amy was showing me around the city. It seems that Teeda was floating around saying it was a date, but she's actually consolidating her surroundings with an escort other than Mr. Chris so that Teeda won't notice.

He said three other people besides me were almost ready today, so he was going to take his time a few days before his scheduled departure date.

"Tenma, I'm free, let's go shopping"

The next day, after breakfast, Amur invited me shopping. Just what I wanted, so when I immediately O.K., for some reason Amur looked surprised.

"The Tenma...... DELETED!

"... nothing, you don't have to go with me, do you?

"Lie! Tenma's not dele! So go?"

So I went shopping. For once, everyone else tried to invite them, but they were all smiling and saying no.

For those reasons, the two of us went shopping alone, but Amur was in a disgusting mood. Sometimes it sounds like a "date, a date," but he didn't seem to notice.

"Right here first. Just give me a minute."

I said no to Amur and then went into the store because I was in the store for him, but Amur didn't wait outside. And

"Here, I can't..."

So he immediately evacuated outside the store. By the way, I'm looking for a pharmacist. For this reason, the store is full of herbs and medicine smells. If you are unfamiliar with the smell, you will feel ill if you do poorly. Even more so if that is a beast man with a better sense of smell than a man.

"Eh... what about this and this and the herbs that make it a wound pill?... Is there only one that is dry? Then take this and this. Then, gastric medicines and antipyretic herbs... are also dry... well, okay"

Like this, I bought various herbs and medicines.

I learn how to make medicines from my mother all the time, so I basically make my own things to use, but that's all I can't study, so when I find medicines that seem to be effective from time to time, I buy them and make sure they work.

In this store, I didn't have very good products, but I didn't necessarily think the other stores were of better quality than here, so I chose one that looked like it would be good all the way.

When he finished shopping and went outside, Amur was in front of the stall, which was a short distance from the store, with the meat stabbed in the skewers on his cheeks.

"Mmm... Tenma, smell"

Amur came up to me when he noticed me, and suddenly he smelled it and said so. I didn't mind because I can smell the herb myself, but from Amur it seems pretty stinky.

"Bye, Day...... Continue Shopping"

When Amur finished his skewering in a hurry, he walked out next to me. But...

"Bad, 'cause I'm gonna drop by here too"

There was a pharmacist a few hundred meters walk away so I went shopping for the herb again. Now I bought a few doses because I had a good pill type.

"Stinky......"

After this, he also toured various pharmacies and purchased various herbs and medicines. I bought all the herbs of the kind I didn't have, one small amount of each, but when I put them all together, it turned out to be quite a lot. Besides, the unique smell of medicinal herbs (which feels like it enhanced the smell of sip) shifted to my body, and Amur, who was looking forward to shopping, was quite upset. Most importantly, even when it came to shopping, Amur just wanted to walk outside, and he only stopped by about a stall. Having obtained the herb, my purpose was achieved, so I thought I would go out with Amur, but Amur, who was in a bad mood, said he was going back to the carriage. He doesn't want to walk with me with a smell he doesn't like.

I went back to the carriage in that condition, so everyone who remained in the carriage was surprised by the double meaning (grumpy Amur and my smell).

"You can study pharmacists, but Tenma needs to learn how to treat women first."

Master Maria said that, but I dared pretend not to hear it. Because I don't think it's okay for a man to argue with a woman in these stories... In the first place, I can't possibly beat Maria (married man) for having such low experience. So you're right not to go up on the mound in favor of your opponent... although some people might also say 'escaped'.

While Maria was shooting me in the mouth, I decided to make medicine out of the herbs I bought in my spare time to go to my parents' workshop. When the work began, Amur and Blanca evacuated outside the carriage, wondering if the smell of medicinal herbs was hard. Dear Maria and Luna were also frowning at the smell of medicinal herbs, but remained in the carriage wondering if curiosity was better. However, Mr. Chris was evacuated outside with Amur and the others. He was doing so, but he seemed to be patient because Master Maria remained. Grandpa can smell it, so he usually does tea change while eating sweets.

"This will be fine"

As I was putting the dried herbs back in the water, Amur, with his nose plug, came back into the carriage with a creaking voice. She seemed pretty spicy with a nose plug quite carefully, but no one said anything because she pretended to be nothing in person.

The medicine I'm making now is an ointment made with bicorn oil. It's easy to make, and even amateurs can make some quality stuff if you make it carefully.

First fry the bicorn oil in hot water and make it liquid. At this time, by heating in boiling water for about 30 minutes, it should also be disinfected.

Next, carefully rinse the medicinal herbs with clean water (this time I use the dry one, so I rinsed every water I used when I put it back) and remove leaf veins, etc. with a fine tea broth of my eyes.

Finally, mix the slightly cooled oil and soaked herbal solution together until the tuna stands so that there is no unevenness with the hella. Now the ointment itself is complete.

After that, divide into small portions, taking care not to add air to the boiled disinfected vial so that it is easy to use.

Apart from this, I also made a hand cream in the same way (the one that turned the herbal solution into a perfume diluted with water), so I gave it to the ladies in the mood. I made a good amount of it, so even if I give it to everyone I know in Seigen, it seems a lot too much.

I couldn't resist presenting Maria and the others here, and I gave Chris the minutes of Jeanne, Aura and Aina, and Maria the minutes of Isabella and Mizaria.

"It's time for me to go to my parents. Maybe it'll be a little late, so eat dinner without me."

That's what I told my grandparents, and I left the carriage. Amur was trying to follow me, but I didn't know what time he was going to be home, so I told him not to follow me. It's not a good idea for men and women to go out and come home late.

"Parent, did you do it?

There was a parent just moments after entering the workshop, so I asked him, and he said the task of cornering him safely was a success.

And I need a little help from my parents.

My parents have been punished for suspending business for a few days, so I thought I would be free to do business, so I decided to ask them to help me. An excuse is to help Ryden free of charge as an apology for putting a weird trick on him.

The parents agreed to the proposal before they heard the details. She ran out of free time in Lyden, so she had to drink it later.

"What I need you to help me with is the demon iron I was using for my tanicase, and I need you to help me make knives, short swords, and pans and frying pans"

I wondered if my parents, who make them around weapons and protective equipment, would make pans and frying pans, but I nodded lightly and started checking the furnaces and tools. I talked to my parents later and they also said that in their apprenticeship years, they made pots and other things beside their training for sale.

"The Demon Iron is nearly a t in all, so I'll make it with the other half as a thank you for the free help... can I ask my parents for a knife and a short sword? Do everyone else a favor for a pan or a frying pan. I want to make a little something."

"That's good, but Tenma is making one mistake. The iron used for Tanicase is not Magic Iron, but Magic Steel. Perhaps the iron has changed."

When I hear more about it, they say that Demon Steel is what you can do when you shed a strong magic against Demon Iron, and as for the material, it will be one thing above the other, and the hardness is a little inferior to Mithril, but in a sense it is more rare than Mithril. Well, when it comes to rarity, if you have enough gold to buy Demon Steel, they say that more people choose a light and durable Mythrill than Demon Steel, to the extent that it's about 20% cheaper for the price compared to Mythrill, so less than half the price of Mythrill Demon Iron is a better price. Besides, it also seems to weigh a little lighter than Magic Iron. Because of that kind of half-way, you don't see much in the market?

"Well, as for the ingredients, it's a first-class product, so there's no need to use it in pans or frying pans!

and at the end of the parent's explanation, each was to go into work.

Fifty knives in total for which the parent is in charge. The breakdown is ten machetes (bush knives), ten survival knives and thirty throwing knives. Each was made of iron from blade to pattern, and the throwing knife asked for something like a kunai about fifteen cm. There were ten short swords and the design was left to the parent.

The disciples are responsible for ten one-handed pots, ten two-handed pots and ten frying pans. One-handed pots are smaller, and two-handed pots are larger. Five large and small frying pans. Apprentices often make pots and such as training, so they can do everything in two days, so they decided to ask their parents to help them when they were done.

And I'll make new weapons and new cookware. A new weapon is a hand-backed sword (one that just sharpened the four sides of a square board) that carves a magic formation of summoning magic on each piece, so that even if you throw it, it will come back to hand, taking a hint from what was previously written in a book by the Marquis of Sammons that you read. And the new cookware is the Zubari Takoyaki. I also plan to make other items the size of which I can make a large bake. And then I'm thinking about making an iron plate for okonomiyaki.

There is nothing particularly difficult about saying that I decided to start with an iron plate… Just pour the softened demon steel into the mold frame until it's drooling and then wait for it to cool naturally. Three iron plates of different sizes were made this way. One of them was to be made for the octopus baker, so I found the gold with the tip rounded out of the tools my parent had, and used it to make the circle. I could have fifty slightly larger holes, so it would be enough for home use.

And a large baker, but this made two sets of objects that could be made five at a time on one side. The size per piece is about 10 cm in diameter and I also made the depth of one side about 3 cm, so it looks like I could make something edible.

However, shortly after I built the large baker, I realized that there had been a major miscalculation. That's...

"Soon, the night is dawning..."

I forgot how much time went by because I was so enthusiastic. That seemed to be the same for the parents, all ahead of where they had planned.

"... I can't believe it, let's go to sleep"

"" "" Let's... ""

We suddenly got drowsy because we were aware of the time, and we decided to sleep in the corner of the workshop.

The next day, after lunch, we woke up, tucked into our stomachs and resumed work on a pre-prepared meal (bought from a stall)...

"Tenma, should I slap you like this?

"Brother! I'm burned!

"Luna! I told you to be careful! Excuse me, Mr. Tenma. Medicine, please."

"Doctor, the fire is amazing!

It was like an experience class for some reason. That and this, because Grandpa brought Amur and the others.

"Something's happening."

Grandpa the puller is making tea for relaxation. Next to it, Chris and Blanca, who were supposed to be the pullers part two and part three, were also drinking tea. Maria said she was going out to meet with Seigen's representatives.

The reason everyone came to this place was that I didn't come home yesterday, and when Grandpa tried to come see how it was going, Amur hitched a ride to it, and Branca accompanied him worried that Amur would not storm, and Luna and Amy, who were interested in what I was making, also joined, and Tida came because Amy said she was going. Chris was originally planning to escort Maria. Tida and Luna told me they were coming to my place, so Maria told me to escort them. I hear Mr. Chris' missing hole will be covered with the rest of the escort. It should be noted that the parent, who seemed reluctant to use the workshop for children (amateurs), rarely said anything. Maybe it's because the other guy has a royal mix and he's going to make me take responsibility if anything happens.

I asked the four of them to help me with the hand sword I use (even if I fail, because this is the least damage), and in the meantime I finished the iron plate. Even when I said finish, I polished the surface nicely and just bent the edges slightly, so I could do it fine while watching the four of them.

In exchange for the four satisfied (tired) with the blacksmiths, the parents finished the throwing knife with great momentum and completed it in a few hours of the stuff. There was only a job in the boulder, and the speed and accuracy of the work was out of step with me and my disciples. That night, the disciples were also finishing their allotments, so the work of the parent was to increase further. It must have been one of the factors that increased the speed of work for the grandfathers to take everyone home (only one being forced) before dark.

"Phew haha... what is it like!

At the same time as the sun rose, the parents created the last short sword. Later, it was only Matchett and the survival knife, but with the help of his disciples, he says that he will finish hitting everything in a day. Well, the disciples are waving their necks sideways behind their parents, so they won't be able to do it in a day on a boulder...

"That's why I'm going to bed. After you wake up."

With that said, the parents began to sleep snoring in the corner of the workshop just like they did yesterday. As I watched, I decided to go home to the carriage once. Today I gave up my place to my disciples on the way and took a little nap, so I could afford to go back to the carriage.

When I got back to the carriage, Grandpa was already awake, so I decided to take a light bath and sleep in bed after talking about the work situation. Sleeping in bed, the slurrins came into the futon and it was a little hot and painful, but I couldn't do much about it here, so I decided to be patient... well, when Amur tried to come in, I threw him out to the boulder.

We spent a few days like that and today we have a scheduled departure date. We were all set by yesterday, early in the morning to the south gate of Seigen.

The drop-off included Amy and her family and Maria, who somehow extended their stay until today, in addition to the "Tamer's Guild" facade in "The Sword of Dawn," "The Royal Royal Line (+ Escort). As for Maria and the others, we planned to leave Seigen before us, but Tida's insistence on dropping me off stretched her stay. He insisted on dropping me off, but no matter how he saw it, there was another purpose, and it was obvious to whoever saw it was more fateful that way.

"Then it's time to leave. Good luck with your studies, Amy. The next time I see him, I think he'll probably be the king's capital. If you have any problems, ask the people of Kukri Village and Aura's sister Aina, and nothing will go wrong. Don't be shy."

"Yes, I understand, Doctor!

I gave Amy a letter to Uncle Mark and the others beforehand, as well as a letter to the King's Capital. I've also sent letters to Jeanne and Aura for once, but I can feel more comfortable letting them rely on Aina than those two.

Amy, who heard my words, was snorting fine. That hip had the short sword I gave it down. The short sword is engraved with the family crest of the Ootri family, and as soon as someone sees it, they'll know it's my associate. At least, I think the adventurers and guild officials, plus the knights, will soon notice. I think some adventurers will show up as fools trying to use Amy, but the guy who extends the offense after finding out that me and the royal family have something to do with it is not in the boulder...... Well, I've given you an escort golem (with + weapons) for that, and I've given you a way to find Amy so you can use Grandpa's mansion as an evacuation spot.

"Leave Amy to me. There are more people with habits in the Southern Autonomous Region than that, so watch out for Tenma."

Maria says such advice as she looks at Amur beside me and Blanca behind me. The two people who felt named had missed their faces without particularly disputing them.

"I'll be very careful. Now, to deliver this letter to Viscount Robo, we're leaving, C-rank Adventurer Tenma."

"Please. However, I don't think so, but in case you do, destroy the writ. But prioritize your own life. This is an order."

"Ha! Got it... That's why I'm going"

After saying hello to everyone as Maria, we boarded a carriage connected to Ryden and headed to the Southern Autonomous Region.

"Let's go, let's go."

"Tenma, be careful."

"Good luck, brother."

"Tenmaku, nice souvenir."

"Good luck ~!"

"Don't be impotent - let's go!"

And so on and so forth, they sent us out loud. In response, I stepped out of the window and kept waving, but if I had enough, everyone would have gotten smaller and smaller like bean grains, and finally I couldn't see.

"It's not a quick journey, and shall we take our time on the road? I'll take care of the directions, Branca."

"Whoa, leave it to me. I'll tell you what sounds interesting on the way to the Southern Autonomous Region"

We decided to ask Blanca, who is most familiar with the Southern Autonomous Region, for directions. In the carriage passenger seat, Blanca answered that with such a smile that she could cry if the child saw it. I will have Blanca do your job for the longest time in terms of directions, but if you think about walking, the burden will be extraordinarily low. Besides, by traveling in Ryden, he said he might arrive a little earlier than he had originally planned, so he could afford to stop by and picked up some of Blanca's recommended places.

It should be noted that from the Southern Autonomous Region to Seigen, it seems to take a month and a half to two months. Besides, depending on the weather and the incident, it's not uncommon for it to take three months? Blanca and the others say they take the carriage, walk, and sometimes travel on a boat.

That's why they were so surprised to hear that if they moved in Ryden, it would be about a third. Most of all, in my own case, if you move as far as you can, don't tell me you'll get there sooner. Because if I surprised you any more, I was terrified of what would happen to their faces.

"Well, if you move a month as a guide, you'll be fine as long as there's not a lot going on. Don't ask me to do you both a favor in the meantime."

"" Ouch!

"Tenma, don't forget I'm here too..."

This is how my second journey began. Unlike the trip three years ago, I was a little nervous about having company, but I was sure it would be fun.
