CH 184

The first place I headed to after returning wasn't to Mari-senpai’s place as usual, but to the engraving store where the untalkative senior, Gantt-senpai was.

Today's Sunday, auction day, but I have left it for Celestine to handle.

We also have a couple of <Golden Chest>s that appeared with the missing drop item in our expedition so far, so I choose 2 among them to auction off.

As our guild has risen to E-rank from F, the number of goods we can sell has increased by 1. It's double the profit now! Fuhaha!

Anyway, the last time I handed the <Shaman Marionette> material to Gantt-senpai was Thursday evening. And now it is three days later in the evening.

The thing I requested for him to do was also said to take around 3 days, so I guess it’s already done. I can't wait to check it out.

I proceed as my heart hops in excitement and arrives at my target store in the blink of an eye.

By the way, the girl's group separated at the first turn since as usual, the first thing they would like to do is to take a shower. Hence, I passed through the entrance alone.

"Are you here, Gantt-senpai?"

"Go outside."

Oops, how sudden. Does he want to fight?

No, it shouldn't be.

The one who said this was certainly Gantt-senpai. He appears out from the shadow of the store with his arms crossed and a headband tied to his forehead. It's a familiar headband.

Just when my mind was wandering around these things, Gantt-senpai passed from my side and went out. As expected of the untalkative senior with the spirit of true artisan. This should be the signal to follow him quietly. That's quite cool to be honest.

I chased after him.

We came to a spacious place beside the store, the carriage parking lot.

"Here is your finished product."

"Wonderful! You're amazing, Gantt-senpai!"

A finished version of the top class <Mechanical Carriage> was stationed there. It's a luxurious carriage that not only costs plenty of rare bosses at the <Shaman Marionette> material, but almost all of the <Great Bamboo Doll> materials. The horse, as a matter of course, was on set.

Most likely even the <Design Paint Alteration Store> of Marie-senpai and others have helped in it as the carriage looks completely different from the design I have seen in the game.

To put into words, it looks gorgeous as a whole. It has been given a resplendent design using lots of gold, silver and red color.

I think they must have also taken into consideration that it's a carriage a Princess will ride. You have my eternal gratitude, Marie-senpai.

I will thank her later.

Oh, about the horses, they’re 100% machine. Although they look inorganic, I don't know if it's due to the magic factor or the effect of Tsukumo but they run fine.

The two horses with their whole body clad in horse armor looks intimidating.

I think it might become an object of absolute terror if it's made to run using the skill. I feel one might directly be sent to a cycle of reincarnation from the shock of being trampled down...... And it's altogether possible for the monster to truly reincarnate and re-pop.

Anyway, that's just my judgment from a glance. The deal is to check its ability before the delivery.

Speaking of which, our guild’s appraisal item, the <Medora> is in the hands of Sierra’s group which I didn't bring along today. So Gantt-senpai silently handed me the <I Know-Kun¹> silently instead.

———————————

<Mechanical Carriage (Top grade) :

Attack power - 60. Passenger capacity - 7.

[Tent Lv1] [Item box Lv3] [Interior enlargement Lv3]>

———————————

Amazing.

It's completely the same as I had imagined and it even has an attack power of 60.

Even the strongest drop among the beginner dungeon, <Wrathful Great Bamboo Battle-Ax> has an attack power of 56.

The value is simply unmatched even to <Ax> type equipment that tends to have relatively high attack power.

In other words, it's something that by no means can be achieved by drop items, as expected of something made through a job. Nevertheless, the amount of effort needed is simply a lot.

By the way, the attack power of the vehicle can't be added to the weapon. So the damage is calculated individually for each weapon and vehicle without combining. In short, the damage you get isn't a sum total or adding up. It's the same as the twin sword style.

Because the summed up attack just by one person would be tremendously high. It makes sense to keep the equilibrium.

It's just, this will weaken the <Princess Knight> by forcing the 2 accessory slots to become unstable but that's not a problem with the exceptional ability of the vehicle itself. Rather, it's a plus.

Let's keep the explanation of other skills for later.

"I really liked it very much, untalkativー I mean Gantt-senpai! This is a wonderful product! I want it right away!"

"... 2 million Mir"

"Huh? It's quite cheap. Are you sure? You have put so much effort because of all the material used in it. I thought it would cost more."

"I don't mind."

"I see. Well, I will take upon your words then!"

I touched my <Student Handbook> and transferred the payment.

Man, Gantt-senpai really is a broad-minded person.

Normally, it would have cost 3 times more with the amount of effort poured in it. I greatly admire him for giving me such an excellent product at such a cheap price.

Incidentally, this amount is paid from the guild budget. Because Ester was highly demanding for one in the guild.

I put the carriage and the horse in my large capacity item bag. I knew I could put it in the bag in the game since it's equipment but it's really startling to see it in reality.

I furiously blinked my eyes at the scene of such a large mass sucked up so easily and looked at my item bag three times. Between, it has been stored in the bag without any problem. And it can be taken out smoothly too.

"Thank you for your help! I will look for you again if I have any commissions, so best regards for then!"

"Mhmm."

I thanked Gantt-senpai as goods transferred happened without any mishaps and then headed to my next target, Marie-senpai's store.

And as soon as I took out today's spoil, the rare boss <Fatty Ball Special> material, Marie-senpai let out a shriek of delight.
