Hard Work Will Never Betray Me

As soon as the village was out of sight, we got off the buffalo and put it in our inventory.

"Yor turn lily 

"Yes. Got it 

　With Lily at the center, an intricate geometric magic circle appeared . The circular formation of runes and magic symbols, glowing and spinning on the ground, is truly a fantasy.

　After about 30 seconds of gazing at such a spectacle that could only be described as projection mapping, Lily turned to me and said, "I'm sorry. After about 30 seconds of staring at the circle , Lily said.

"Let's go home then."

"Yes."

"Thanks."

　The next thing we knew, we were floating for a moment, and the scenery around us had changed from the forest to the Camras plain with its bright, low grass.

"I can't get used to transfer magic, no matter how many times I experience it. Well, it's convenient at least .

"It makes me feel a little dizzy . ......

"Is that so?　I have nothing like this "

　In short, I think Lily has an aptitude for it.And we don't have much.

　Transference magic can only transfer to a place you've been to once before. Conversely, if you've been to a place once, you can transfer there as long as you have enough magic power.

　This time, I took advantage of this property and succeeded in shortcutting almost all the way home. That's why the return trip was so quick.

"This is Heitburg."

　About two kilometers ahead of us, we could see the magnificent city walls of Heidburg. Merchants and adventurers were lined up at the gate of the city.

"We finally back "

"Isn't that village  belong , to your family territory as well ?"

"Yes, it is.

　Even though it  was in the same territory, if they were 350 kilometers apart, it would feel like a trip. It's like a person living in Sapporo traveling to Kushiro.

"We'll be at the west gate then."

"Yes. Let's go with Buffalo!"

 Since we left the city as adventurers, it would be more efficient to enter the West Gate, which is closer to the Adventurer's Guild.

　Mei  took the Buffalo out of her inventory and started the magic engine. She seemed to have gotten used to the car by now, and she looked dignified as she got into the driver's seat. I've never driven a car in my previous life, and even driving a passenger car is a bit intimidating for me, but she can easily drive around a Hiace-class Buffalo, so she's got a lot of guts.

　So I got into the Buffalo driven by Mei  and we drove along the road to Heitburg. A gentle breeze was blowing gently on the long,   slient road before noon.

　　　　　✳︎

"Oh, can you put this on for me?"

"An eyes mask?"

"There's something fishy about it."

　After  leaving the buffalo  nearby  the west gate and making sure there were no people around, I handed them a Venetian mask of similar design  as  my mask.

"Well, I don't think it's very useful against professionals, but if you're dealing with ordinary people, you can avoid unnecessary trouble."

"I see."

"Is that how it is?"

　Lily, who had been kidnapped once before, understood quickly.But Mei didn't  understand it "

" Mei, you don't seem to be aware of this, so I'm going to tell you that the Arendelle Workshop is now a major up-and-coming workshop that everyone in the empire's powerful nobility is paying attention to. And Mei is the heiress of the workshop and the central figure of the development group. It would be troublesome if your identity was exposed."

　In fact, she could be kidnapped or raided by nobles from other territories or spies from other countries who want to steal her tools. I'm not going to let that happen, and more importantly, Mei  herself carries around weapons in her inventory that are a little too much to be called security items, so the chances of her actually being kidnapped are slims , or even none .

　Still, there are certain people who plan to do bad things. Even if they don't do any real harm, it would be a hassle to deal with them every time. A certain amount of caution was necessary to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"I got it ."

"Haha, you look like a suspicious lady at a masked ball."

"That's exactly what my strict tutor looks like."

　The two masked  women were evaluating each other's appearance. It's a mask that I don't usually  use , so it gave me a very different impression.

If you put it that way, Hal is a faceless golem.

"You have eyes."

"It just has eyes, sir."

　I was watching the exchange between the two quietly, and then  we started to fly. Then, for some reason, they began  critique me .

"I don't think the design is bad, but I think it lacks a bit of individuality."

"It should be a little more stylish."

"You know, isn't Mei  the one who made this ......?

"It was designed by Hal. I just made it according to the design .

"Then why didn't  you just change the design?"

"That would have gone against the client's wishes."

　The topic gradually shifted to criticism of my design sense.

"Hey, Hal. Do you want me to introduce you to one of our designers?"

"If it's functional design you're looking for, leave it to our Arendal Studio!"

　Then, for some reason, the advertising began.

"Is it really that bad , ......?"

"Well, it's no actual  problem for an adventurer."

"Well, we're adventurers, aren't we?"

"When this gets old, I'm going to ask Lily's designer to change  design it for me. It will be made in the Arendelle workshop.

"Thank you very much."

"I hope it's will be more stylish !"

"Well, let's get going, shall we?

"Yeah."

"Yeah."

　After completing the formalities at the west gate, we headed to the adventurer's guild that was  inside the castle gate.

"Hello, Silver . Welcome back.

　When we entered the guild, Sally, a familiar receptionist who was one of the few people who knew the identity of the Silver Comet, approached us. It was past the morning peak period, so the guild was quiet. We made it to the reception counter without drawing  any attention.

"You're back already?"

"Well,  we have the Trailwagen."

"But still. It is usually essential to prepare carefully and take all possible measures when hunting wyverns. You're an S-rank adventurer.

"I'm not really a S rank adventurer."

　After exchanging casual conversation because of our familiarity, I submit the request accomplishment form.

"Yes. thanks for your hard work . Then let's head to the demolition warehouse.

"Yes."

　We lumbered off to the demolition warehouse attached to the guild. In the warehouse, the guild staff and the contractors working on the dismantling work were sweating and working hard.

"Oh . Silver here ! "

"What?　What the hell is demolition again?"

"Guillermo!　We need more demolition workers!"

　You can hear the screams that don't seem to be ...... happy. The guild's management may be happy to hear this, but for the people who is working here  is the most important thing. If you're the kind of person who sacrifices your personal life to work hard, you're not going to choose a job as a guild employee where "stability" is the main selling point.

"...... Ah, time doesn't pass if it's in your inventory, so let's make it a small batch at weekly intervals, shall we?"

　The demolition workers, who until just a moment ago had been overcome with a sense of despair, suddenly became radiant when they heard my suggestion.

"'That's it, please do!

"Then that's how it is."

　I told  that as I turned to Sally, and she nodded with a bitter look on her face.

The guild would have to buy it the same day, but it's in this condition. I'll add some extra value to the purchase price."

　The guild's fault is that I'm going to be temporarily holding on to my prey, so that will be taken into account in the purchase price.

"I'm not going to be able to give you a purchase price until all the assessments are done, so I'm just going to give you the reward for defeating them.

"Yes, thank you."

　Well, even if it's just the reward for defeating  monsters , the total  reward should be around 20 to 30 million ells. Thinking that I had earned tens of millions of yen in a few days, I was in a good mood.
