Chapter 16: CH 15

“Samia-san”

“What’s with that! It’s gross.”

“How harsh. Well, anyway, I made knives and long swords as new products, I’m thinking of going to the town again to sell it. It’s been almost a week since we last went there, right? We painstakingly made people remember us. If we don’t go there for a long time they may just forget about us, that will be such a waste.”

“That’s also true… OK, I’ll go there with you.”

“Sorry, I know you’ll resume hunting soon.”

“It’s fine. I’m not in a hurry for that.”

Then me and Samia prepare to go to the city and leave.

Samia has a bow and a knife. It is better to have a means to attack from a long distance especially in an emergency. Moreover, the arrowhead of the arrow that will be nock on the bow is my special products.

I put all the knives for sale together in a rucksack, and put the quick food on the way in another pouch and tied it to my waist. I was wondering what to do with the long swords, I fixed it on the rucksack and tied it up. I kept one on my left hip and the self-defense knife is on my bosom.

And, (This appearance is the one I saw in illustrations in my previous world!), Samia noticed my mood as my inner thought and great joy reflected in my expression.

“What are you happy about?”

“None, I wish I could sell the long swords.”

“Hmm…”This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com)

Although I’m pretty suspicious, Samia didn’t pursue any further. Does she think that I sometimes get used to being happy in strange places, or does she think that craftsmen are all weird?

We went through the forest. With the long swords, it’s much heavier than usual but since my muscles were strengthened, I didn’t slow her down. If we have to rest often, I’d consider introducing a cart, but for now it’s not necessary.

However, if for example I have 20 short spears and 20 long swords, it will be physically difficult to carry it in the first place. Eventually, time will come where I need to introduce it.

……In line with that, it may be better to cut down the trees from now.

We took short break in between. In another 30 minutes, we should be on the main road but Samia suddenly came to a halt. There must be something.

“What is it?”

“The smell of blood is so confusing that it’s hard to understand. There’s a carnivore out there. This is….. forest wolf huh? It’s probably aware of us being here.”

“What should we do?”

“Let’s observe for a while. The smell of blood means that it probably caught some prey and is now eating it, if it’s happy with it, it won’t come to us.”

“I see.”This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com)

“If it comes after us…..”

“If it comes after us?”

“At that time, it’s time to put that thing hanging on Eizou’s hip to good use.”

It’s smarter to listen to Samia’s opinion as she’s a senior resident in this forest. A little while later, Samia speak in a soft voice.

“As I thought, we need to get away from there.”

“Is that so?”

I was relieved. The benefits of the weapon hanging on my waist will be useful in the event of an emergency, but even so, it’s for sale, so I want to avoid things that will stop it from being sold. Fortunately, we don’t need to do that.

As we walked down the road again, I asked Samia.

“What do forest wolves hunt?”

“What you ask, there a lot of things. Most of the time, tree deer. The rest should be grass rabbits or rats. We also hunt tree deer, we don’t eat internal organs other than the heart so we entrust them to people who come and join us during the hunt.”

When I asked about “grass rabbits” and “rats”, “grass rabbits” have thin ears and are usually green in color, they look like grass. While “rats” are earth-colored and live by digging holes in the soil.This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com)

Basically, it seems that the creatures in this forest have survived by mimicry. They camouflage themselves to deceive the eyes of their enemy. In other words, living in this forest, they made themselves hard to be identified especially from the sky. I think that there are good creatures above the pyramid of the food chain. For example, dragon…..

“Hey, is there a dragon here?”

“Dragon? I haven’t seen one, but I’ve heard that there is.”

There are dragons huh. I want to see it. But I don’t have the confidence that I’ll be able to survive. Let’s save that for the last fun on this second life.

We were able to get to the city without any particular problems on the highway. It was Marius-shi’s turn guarding the entrance.

“Ah, thank you” I said.

“Oh, it’s you guys. I was worried because you didn’t show up.”

“My bad, I got out of stock so I just made new ones. Thanks to Marius-san.”

“That time huh. I was a little surprised at that time too. I’m sorry if it caused you trouble.”

“No, no, there’s no trouble at all.”

“That would be fine… Is that what you’ll sell today?”

“Yes, I will sell the usual knives and a long sword this time.”

“I see, I’m going to drop by again later, so pleases save one for me.”

“Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

After exchanging greetings with Marius, we head to the flea market. As before, I paid the entrance money, set up the sales stand and lined up several knives and a long sword there. The textile seller last time is close next to us so I raised one hand to say hello.

Well, today’s business starts.

Since we’ll be free for the meantime, I ask Samia to run errand for me. In almost one week, our  food has decreased considerably, so we have to replenish it. The cost can be covered by the previous sales.Translated by Yume Neiji

This time, 4 pieces were sold from the time Samia went to do the errand and returned. Apparently, the guards like it and there are plenty of opportunities for them to show it off.

Besides the knives, two long swords are also sold. The same person bought both of them. He is a peddler who travels to far places and he plan to resell one somewhere far, the other is for his own use. He laughed and said, even if it didn’t sell, it won’t cause him a problem as he’ll just carry it. As a peddler, he wants to carry as many items as possible that can be sold for sure, I think he probably has someone to sell it to.

But a trip huh. I also yearn to travel. If I can afford it, maybe I should organize a company trip with Samia? I just don’t know when.

And on their way back home, Marius-shi bring along one of his colleagues and I sold two more long swords.Translated by Yume Neiji

“Is it alright? I’m thankful that I can sell my items, but isn’t those armor set loaned by the lord?”

“That’s what I use for my duties as a guard, but that’s not the case if I use it for training myself, and it’s inevitable that I’ll accidentally bring what I used for training.”

Marius-shi, winks by saying so, he looks more good natured.
