Chapter 69: 67

With our pseudonyms safely decided, we strolled around the town of Cid.

Our goal was to find a place that was as inconspicuous and invisible as possible, and to set up the portal for the transfer ring that Yggdrasil had prepared.

“I like it here.”

We found a small dead-end street about a ten-minute walk from the main gate.

It is sandwiched between buildings on both sides, and in front of it is the outer wall of the town.

It is completely hidden from the main street, and there is little sign of people. In addition, it is dimly lit.

“Yg… Ciel, can we set up a portal here?”

“Yes, we can. I think it would be better to set up a magic circle on the wall here. If the ground is covered with dirt, it might lose its shape after a long period of use.”

“I’ll leave that to you. Let’s get started.”

“Yes ye~s.”

I almost called her Yggdrasil out of habit.

I’m still not used to calling her by her alias. I’ll have to be careful.

While I was thinking about this, Yggdrasil deployed a magic circle against the wall at the end of the hall. I’ve never seen this technique before. However, Yggdrasil manipulates the magic circle without hesitation.

“Mmm-hm~m, mmm-hm~m♪”

And she even hummed while doing it.

Even though she looks like a young girl, she is still a spirit of the world tree and seems to be quite familiar with magic.

I and Titan will keep an eye out for people coming from the main street and observe Yggdrasil as he works.

Probably less than ten minutes had passed since I had started working. A particularly strong light was emitted from the magic circle and settled on the wall.

I can see that part of the completed formula is slowly rotating around the circle’s perimeter, providing a continuous supply of mana.

“Ya~y, the portal is complete~!”

“Oh, this is… quite a complicated technique. I don’t think I could reproduce it.”

I couldn’t help but let out a mutter of admiration.

Then Yggdrasil looked back at me and gave me a thumbs-up.

“Fufu, isn’t that great?! You can praise me more!”

But behind her, the magic circle disappeared as if it was sucked into the wall.

“Huh? The magic circle seems to have disappeared.”

“Oh, there it is. It’s okay, it’s okay. Touch the wall with the hand with the ring I gave you yesterday.”

“? Like this?”

I did as I was told and touched the wall with my right hand, the one with the ring.

Then,

“Oh!”

The magic circle that had just disappeared reappeared almost instantly.

The ring also began to glow with the engraved strings of letters.

“If we had a magic circle like this all over town, people would be asking what’s going on. It’s usually better to keep it hidden, right?”

“Right.”

If there was a strange magic circle in the town, it would cause a commotion.

Although this place is not easily seen by people, there is no guarantee that no one will come.

I think Yggdrasil made the right decision.

Besides, if anyone were to notice the effectiveness of this magic, and if it were to spread widely in magical society, it might cause trouble.

First of all, the consumption of mana, which is putting a strain on the active world tree, will be accelerated even further.

Second, it is doubtful that humans will use it as a mere means of transportation.

Even with a common enemy in the form of Demiurge, there was still a lot of conflict among humans.

This magic could be used to easily assassinate important people in other countries, or even to send explosives to strike them without direct action.

If it is used as a tool of war, it will be transformed into very vicious weapon magic.

In this way, it is magic that needs to be handled with great care, isn’t it?

However, the way the magic circle redeploys in conjunction with the ring is very clever.

This way, it would be impossible for anyone to find it, and even if they saw the magic circle and realized it was a transference spell, they wouldn’t be able to figure out everything about it.

Perhaps this transference magic is triggered by the combination of the ring and the magic circle.

If this is the case, then it is unlikely that the magicians will be able to figure out the transfer magic from this magic circle alone. I can’t say for sure, but I’ve never seen anything like it. For those who don’t know its complete form, it would be hard to imagine that there is some other element to it that makes up the transfer magic.

“I can only set up three more magic circles at the moment. That makes four, including this one. Also, you can’t use the portals right away after you set them up. It will take about half a day before they are firmly in place and a mana path is created between each portal.”

I see, it’s useful magic, but as expected, it can’t be used immediately.

No, it’s because it’s convenient that it may require a troublesome procedure.

Also, the number of portals that could be set up was less than I expected.

If it were possible, I would have liked to create a few more destinations outside of the town, but I guess it can’t be helped.

If we want to simplify travel, we have to grow the world tree as soon as possible. This will also lead to increased efficiency.

Now,

“Then we’ll have to set up one near the center of town. As for the rest, it might be better to set up portals outside the town after confirming the information about the demons with the Adventurer’s Guild. What do you guys think?”

“I don’t know much about the outside world. Leave that to husband.”

“I think that’s fine, too. Leave it to you, A-kun!”

“Me too. I don’t like to be bothered by such things. I leave it all to Master.”

Hey, hey…

You all have no opinion?

This is the kind of thing that should be thought out and decided as a party…

“Oh well. Then, let’s head to the center of town. If there are too many people around, they might see us setting up the magic circle, so I think we should look for an unpopular place on the outskirts.”

“Umu.”

“Okay.”

“We’ve been on the move a lot today.”

“Don’t complain. After we set up the last portal in town, we’ll rent an inn for the day. Tomorrow morning, we’ll bring in all the household goods we’ll need for our home. After that, we’ll go to the adventurer’s guild and find out where the demons live.”

Everyone nodded at my words and we left the place.

The sun is still up, thanks to the short drive we took after leaving the forest.

In a few minutes, the walls will block the sun, but we’ll have enough time to set up another portal.

So we headed to the center of town.

It was about an hour’s walk from where we had set up the first portal.

We saw a small church and found a small vacant lot behind it.

Perhaps because it was behind the quiet space of the church, combined with the time of day, there were no people in sight.

We set up the second portal there.

We stayed one night at the same inn we stayed at last time with Demiurge.

Incidentally, we all stayed in the same room. Aside from Demiurge, we rented the biggest room at the inn and all stayed together because we were afraid to let Titans and Yggdrasil out of our sight.

Needless to say, I was very careful about my actions with Demiurge that night.

However, two facts were discovered here…

Titan was snoring badly, and Yggdrasil was a very bad sleeper.

I never want to sleep near them again.

◆◇◆◇◆

In the morning, after breakfast at the inn, we made our way to the commercial district of Cid.

It was about a 30-minute walk from the inn.

The location is near the west of the town.

It was close to the commercial guild I had visited before.

If I have time, I might as well go and sell the medicinal herbs I’ve gathered from the forest this time.

The commercial area we arrived at was lined with stores across a large street.

Some of them were open-air businesses, and the area was quite crowded.

In the midst of all this, we searched for a store to buy furniture and other household goods.

“Muu… I can feel the eyes around me… it’s uncomfortable.

“Really? I’m fine, you know? Ah, hello, brother~!”

“You’re waving at people you don’t even know.”

“Yeah~, it’s fun you know? It’s fun to observe people blushing and squirming.”

Yggdrasil is saying something that sounds out of character.

However, many people are indeed looking at Yggdrasil and her friends.

Most of them are from men, but some of them are from women.

In all likelihood, it’s because of the appearance of Demiurge, Titan, and Yggdrasil.

They’re all so much more than just a good-looking bunch…

“You’re right, the humans are staring at us… we should kill a few of them or something… Ah!”

“Don’t be rash, Tia.”

I stopped Titan from walking towards the people staring at me with a single punch.

I’ve given you alias to keep you from causing a scene, but you’re going to cause one yourself.

Also, don’t say “kill” so easily. From now on, you will have to live in the human society even more. So we may need to talk to these guys to get them to change their minds about that sooner rather than later.

“Oh, my master’s hurting me… It hurts, but it’s great! Give me more!”

My thoughts were blown away.

Titan came close to me with a look of ecstasy on her face.

“Disgusting! Get away from me!”

“Oh, no, so mean! But the cursing is also good… tingling~”

This guy is no good…

The exchange just now has attracted even more attention from the people around me.

No, that’s not the point. Titan is stuck to me. Demiurge’s gaze instantly became stern.

“Hey, get away, Tita… Tia! You’re annoying husband! I mean, don’t force that big lump of meat on my husband!”

“Uwa, uwawa~ Battlefield! It’s a battlefield! Dee-chan and her friends, ba, title, field!”

“Yg… Ciel! Stop being funny and help me!”

“Ehh~?　You’re in a harem you know, A-kun. You must be really happy~”

Damn it, this guy is unreliable!

Demiurge stood out from the crowd, and this scene of a lover’s quarrel drew the attention of the people around me.

Not so long ago, I would have thought “explode” the moment I saw this scene, but now that it happens to me, what a pain in the ass it is!

“Oh, my God! Calm down, you guys!”

And after that, I wasted a lot of time trying to calm the girls down and get this over with.

So, somehow or other, I arrived at a store that deals in furniture and ordered a whole bunch of stuff I needed. I put the items into the『Spatial Storage』that I was able to use with my Sage class.

Also, perhaps because I purchased a large amount of furniture at once, the owner of the store gave me a squeeze and said, “We look forward to seeing you again!”

It’s so open and honest.

Well, that’s fine, I’ll just get my daily necessities and then head back to my house in the forest using the portal I set up yesterday.

I’ll have to go back to the adventurer’s guild later in the day.

“How convenient, cross-space storage.”

“Well, yeah. I can take things out whenever I want, and my hand luggage is minimal. It’s useful magic.”

Titan, who had been watching the rather large bed being sucked into the rift in space, muttered admiringly.

There are few mages and wizards who can use this spatial storage.

It is a magic that is quite useful for adventurers as a baggage handler, and for merchants as a means of transporting and carrying large amounts of goods at once.

The more baggage an adventurer has, the more difficult it is to move around, and the more days it takes to travel, the more it costs.

Merchants can greatly reduce the cost of transportation, and the benefits are immeasurable.

In other words, just because you can use spatial storage, you are sought after by those in that kind of profession.

Well then, I guess I’ll just buy some more stuff and call it a day.

Because of the initial commotion, it took longer than expected. It would soon be an evening in the sky. I’d better hurry a little.

Just as I started to walk faster, I suddenly realized where I was.

Suddenly, I felt a sticky gaze coming from somewhere and turned my head around.

Then

“Hey, hey…”

Several men appeared from the side of the street.

They look like ruffians, and their bodies are reasonably large.

With a sword on his hip and a spear or ax on his back, he might be an adventurer.

At the very least, he couldn’t possibly be a town guard.

He looks so bad.

Here I am, remembering what Kane said to me yesterday.

『Oh, yeah. Just be careful. This town has good security, but there are still some crooked people and people who can’t help themselves. If they know you’ve got money, they’ll steal it.』

I have a hunch that the trouble I was afraid of has come from over there…
