Chapter 55: Quite the summoning

With the complete renewal of our mithril and adamantite equipment, we spent our days leisurely, making potions or accepting requests at the Adventurers Guild, and taking proper breaks.

On one such day, Papeck-san visited my home for the first time in a while. It’s usually the head clerk, Thomas-san, who brings my rights-related remuneration, but if it is the ever-busy Papeck-san that coming to my house, wouldn’t that mean that he has some sort of troublesome favor to ask? I kept vigilant as I ushered Papeck-san to the living room.

「My apologies for neglecting to contact you in a while. For the hand pump, purifying magic devices, and refrigerator that Takumi-sama had created one after the other, I am grateful.」

Papeck-san smiled as he gave his greetings, but that smile is a bit frightening.

「It has been a while, Papeck-san.」

I reciprocated with an acceptable greeting.

「Takumi-sama, truthfully, I have a request I wish to ask of you today.」

Ah. I knew it. It’s fine if it’s production related, but I don’t want to if it’s adventure related.

「A request?」

It hasn’t yet been decided that it’s troublesome. Yep, I wouldn’t know until I ask for the details, right?

「Yes, with magic circle that Takumi-sama provided, it is now possible for toilets attached with purifying magic devices to be manufactured wholly in the Papeck Company workshops. Owing to that, the number of toilets manufactured is increasing drastically, spreading to even the royal capital.」

So that’s how it is. Until just a while ago, I made the part with the magic device, but now that I’ve provided the magic circle for the purifying magic device to the Papeck Company, I just receive the royalties.

「Is there a problem with the magic circle?」

「No, since analysis of the magic circle is impossible for us, we can only copy the magic circle that we have received from you, Takumi-sama.」

The magic circle makes use of ancient magic letters and symbols, and to further complicate it, ancient elven magic letters were mixed in. Furthermore, dummy magic characters that will not interfere with the magic circle were added to make deciphering it difficult. Moreover, I had the idea to insert a dummy magic circle into it.

「As a matter of fact, Margrave Volton presented the hand pump, the toilet with purifying magic device, and the refrigerator to His Majesty the King. Given that even His Majesty was extremely pleased, a concentration of inquiries from nobles of the royal capital and wealthy merchants had come, and as a result, we will be supplying a massive amount of merchandise to the royal capital.」

「I seeee, my congratulations to you.」

That said, that isn’t the end of the conversation. Rather, there’s an issue because that happened.

Probably understanding what I was thinking, Papeck-san nodded.

「That is right. As it had become quite the topic in the royal capital, someone with the audacity to pick a fight, or should I say, talk absurdly had come.」

「Haaa~. It’s the Divine Empire of Sydnia, isn’t it?」

The religious country that declared that the Light attribute magic that was given to them by God is sacred magic. The primary cause of why I was dragged into this world. The headquarters of the Light God Faith that only performs recovery magic at an exorbitant price.

「Thank you for your consideration.」

By the way, there are 7 days even in this world, and there are 5 weeks in one month, and there are 360 days in a year.

The 7 days are Light Day, Fire Day, Water Day, Wind Day, Earth Day, Time Day, and Dark Day.

So as to not find myself in Sydnia’s line of fire, it seems that Papeck-san is worrying over how I would be as inconspicuous as possible.

There I realized that I’ve been involved since a while back. That’s right, the Divine Empire of Sydnia is the name of a country that I heard from Norn-sama’s own mouth. If I had to say exactly, as a result of the forbidden technique, the hero summoning, that took place in that country, I was dragged into it.

Huh? Still, I wonder what happened to the three summoned heroes.

Even so, this is not a topic I can ask Papeck-san. It reeks of danger.

「Till the royal capital, Valkyratos, it will take 10 days even for a carriage pulled by a Demon Horse, and twice as long with a normal carriage, so please be prepared.」

「I understand.」

After that, we had a bit of a chat then Papeck-san left.

「Haaaa~, the royal capital, huh.」

「It’s the royal capital, I’m looking forward to it.」

「Me too, it will be my first time at the royal capital.」

Grumbling as I flumped into the sofa, Sophia and Maria seemed to look forward to going to the royal capital.

It seems it isn’t rare for a regular person in this world to not leave their birthplace for their whole lifetime, so for Maria who has been in Moulin Slavery Company since she was young, now being with me, who has been going here and there, is fun. And Sophia said that, as an elf, traveling freely to foreign countries was difficult. Though there’s the matter of her being a lesser noble’s daughter, she’s also a knight, but I think that the Sophia’s exceedingly beautiful appearance is the number one problem.

「Let’s split up tomorrow to prepare for the trip to the royal capital, shall we?」

「「Yes!」」

Haaa, this is too depressing.

Important Notice:

I’m sorry to say but I must slow down even more with updates. A family member had been injured in an accident the other day and I have to help out. It might take 2-3 weeks to recover. I hope to have your understanding during this time. Thank you.
