After finishing lunch and paying the bill, we left the restaurant.
“Well, I’m off!”
“Ah, wait! Iwamoto-san, do Teleport Scrolls have any issues with long distances?”
“In the game, there were no particular problems, no, absolutely no problems.”
So, it doesn’t matter how far the distance is, there’s no such thing as shortening one’s lifespan.
“There’s no risk of not being able to return, right?”
“If you have multiple scrolls… Shall I try using one myself, oh, what?”
Iwamoto-san was looking at it with a puzzled expression as he took it out.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing is displayed. I cleared all the cities in the game.”
“Then this Mu Mu Empire too, before…” “No, this is a continent I don’t know.”
Perhaps it’s because I became a Summon,
In a strange way, has my ‘own actions’, in other words, my free will, disappeared?
“Let me see… I can see everything! Huh?”
“What’s wrong, Anju-chan?”
“There’s somewhere I don’t know… I wonder where.”
Ah, could it be,
Anju-chan’s hometown, perhaps!
“What’s the name of the town?”
“It says Tail-ko! Oh, and school!”
“U-Um, have a good day!” “Iwamoto-san, please observe the class!”
With that, they disappeared together.
Afternoon classes, huh? Was it training with Shusher-kun?
It would be interesting to spar as fellow Assassins. However, that’s a different matter.
“Nina-san.”
“Indeed. I have free time this afternoon. While item collection is good, perhaps we should go for it once.”
“Even for a moment… Just in case I can’t return, um, I’ll stay behind to watch the house.”
Clarice-san is necessary when injured.
If I say that, then Helen-san too,
There’s the Goddess Succubus’s revival, after all.
“Nastasia-san, please wait at Nina Castle.”
“Understood, Master Deles.”
“You had a Teleport Scroll, right? Here are two more, just in case.”
Now, it’s not exactly a light post-meal exercise, but…
From now on, to the Milishitan Continent, I want to say “in a flash,” but…
“I’m sorry, I’m scared, so could we go to Starri Island in the middle first?”
“That’s fine, but there’s no entry procedure. You should avoid staying long.”
“Understood. Everyone is okay with this, right? Well then… Here I go!!”
I used the Teleport Scroll!
“…Ah. It’s morning.”
“Hmm, this is indeed like a seaside island, and an Adventurer Guild, wouldn’t you say?”
“It seems to be a crowded time now. There are many burly, tanned warriors.”
It really is, this looks like the Adventurer Guild on Starri Island.
“Ah, I forgot.”
“What’s wrong, Deles?”
“If Anju-chan were here, we could use the Teleportation Magic Circle…”
But it might be too far even for that.
“That can wait for next time. This is a test of whether we can go or not.”
“R-Right, then next… I’m still scared, so the closest place on the continent.”
“Leave it to me.”
(Next, to Pupuka on the Milishitan Continent!)
When the Teleport Scroll lights up, the place we arrived at is night.
Yes, I’m in front of the Adventurer Guild in Demes, the capital of Pupuka.
(It was thanks to the receptionist here being so accommodating that I was able to escape, wasn’t it?)
I peeked inside, but the receptionist wasn’t there.
I’m a little worried she might have been fired.
“Hmm, if Anju were here, I wonder if she would understand the concept of time zones.”
“I knew it in theory, but when it’s too far, it really can be daytime, morning, or night at the same time.”
“Is there a Church of the Goddess here?” “Clarice-san, let’s save that for later. Clarice-san can come too now.”
Perhaps I should go to all the towns I’ve visited,
But it would be better if Anju-chan and Nastasia-san were here for that.
“Well then, shall we return?”
“No, before that.”
“Deles’s hometown?”
I’m not yet mentally prepared for that.
“No, it’s a visit to the grave. Alright, here I go.”
(Let’s go to Ikutamakki Village!!)
“…Whoa, there’s an Adventurer Guild now! They have a branch office, but…”
“Master Deles, there’s the Dungeon where you obtained the ‘Fairy Ring’, right?”
“Yes, it was a vacant house when I came before, so they made it a Guild. It’s closed at night normally.”
Since the village doesn’t have proper lighting,
I turn on my Light Magic and walk a short distance in the light snow to a small hero’s grave.
“Deles, is this the one?”
“Yes, in a way, I’m who I am today because of him.”
I, Nina-san, Clarice-san, and Helen-san pray.
“…Did we bring any flowers?”
“Master Deles, please have these.”
“Thank you, Clarice-san, though I didn’t ask for them.”
I placed a single artificial flower.
“Ah, next time, when I have free time, let’s go pick Komomo!”
“Can I go too?” “Ugh, Nina-san, I’m sorry.”
I guess I’m a pair with Anju-chan.
“Well then, Deles, can we return to the Movermas Continent all at once…”
“Just one more place before that! Please!” “Very well.”
I took out a Teleport Scroll and flew to…!!
“I’m nostalgic! It’s Nahita’s town!”
“There’s still snow remaining here too.”
“It’s a four-hour Dragon flight from the previous village.”
It’s late at night, isn’t it?
Keeping everyone waiting, I entered the Adventurer Guild alone. A completely unfamiliar receptionist was dozing at the counter.
“Hah, s-sorry.”
“No, my name is Deles. Please give this to Cassie-san.”
“To the Sub Guild Master?! Understood, I’ll deliver it for you, but…” “See ya!”
I quickly left and rejoined Nina-san and the others.
“What did you hand over?”
“Um, as a souvenir, that shirt.”
Yes, a horribly gaudy Bear-chan shirt, a local specialty of the imperial countryside.
“Is it a prank?”
“Please call it a novelty souvenir! Well then, let’s go.”
And so, we returned by Teleport Scroll not to Nina Castle, but to in front of the Shucco Adventurer Guild.
“Whoa, it’s dazzling!”
“…It really was for a moment.”
“Master Deles, with this, it’s possible to travel the world in an hour!”
Ah, Helen-san is speechless!
“Excuse me, Helen-san. You haven’t said a word since leaving the restaurant in the empire, have you? Please say something.”
“…Let’s quickly report our marriage to Master’s parents.”
“Is it really that again?”
When should I do that?
