Chapter 32: CH 31

I and Rike pull the cart loaded with our luggage. Samia is our escort so she’s not pulling it with us but she didn’t ride on the cart and walk together with us instead. If it’s about the weight, it’s heavy, but thanks to the wheels, we are likely to go back without having our pace slowed down that much.

I’m worried, I hope the wheels won’t get stuck in the forest. Though when I dug the soil before, it was not soft so maybe it will be all right. In the worst case, I may need to ask Samia to push it.This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com)

With a party of three people walking together on the main road and with a cart that one would definitely think that something is being carried, I think that there’s a high possibility of being attacked. Until now, Samia didn’t have any reaction so there may be no such danger after all. But, there is no doubt that the risk of us being attack is higher.

Even with Samia, a tiger beastman who is armed with a custom model bow and me (though with poor skill) here, I don’t think that there will be no danger at all so I must not treat it as something trivial.

I spoke about that with Samia, so on the way back home, we are more careful than usual. In the end, nothing happened in the main road on this day, but if you are prepared you don’t have to worry.

From now on, it’s better to be careful on the way home. The way to the town is peaceful and if the way back is peaceful too, it’s scary.

Even after entering the forest, the wheels did not sink deep enough to get stuck after all. I was even a little worried, “Is it possible to pass between trees with this cart?” Though in the first place, carts are not that wide.

However, I cannot say that it was as easy as or better than when we are on the main road that was maintained in its own way, it now turned into a difficult journey somehow.

“Is it better to improve the road?”

“But boss, if you do that, the condition you made to have them come alone in our house will be easier you know.”

“There’s also that too…”

I did say that. From now on, we will accept custom orders for those who can come alone to our house, so it makes no sense if I make a road. It’s like saying, “You can reach my house if you follow the road.” Then it’s just like going to a tofu shop for an errand. I wonder if I made a blunder…

For the time being, there were no big problems and we were able to get home safely. I’m thankful for it every time but sometimes, problems may arise too. At that time, I have to try to minimize it…

We then remove the luggage from the cart and bring it inside our house and workplace. Aside from the salt and wine, it took a while for the iron ores and charcoals to be carried in by three people. It kinda feels like we work all day long. I want to think of something like tilting the cart for example then carry it in…

On this day, we had a little lavish dinner, I made wheat rice porridge, dried bear meat and root vegetables stewed in wine (and water) that we had bought. It had a nice aroma and it was well received by Samia and Rike so I should make it from time to time.

The dawn next day, me and Rike will start to make metal sheets which are the raw material for making weapons. Samia went out saying, “I will catch a bird or a rabbit.” She’s not aiming for a deer so maybe she’s willing to help us again tomorrow. We also have enough meat in stock.Translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com)

Before making a weapon, I compared the quality of the iron ores I just purchased from the original stock. Using my installed knowledge and cheat, it appears to be a little better but it does not look that different from before.

“Rike, how about it? For me, it’s not that different.”

I handed the two iron ores that I was observing to Rike.

“Yes, as Boss said, I also think that it’s almost of the same quality. I don’t know who chose them but, he has quite good eye for this.”

“Then, shall we use the ones we have in stock first?”

“Yes. I understand, Boss.”

I magically set fire in the steel-making furnace operated by magic, I then put charcoal and finely crushed iron ores. Send in some wind by magic again and after waiting for a while, I repeat the same process several times, iron ―to be exact, steel is made.

With an ordinary Rheem furnace or those operated by foot bellows, it is necessary to break the furnace every time you blow iron as you take out the ball of steel from the broken part, but this magical furnace does not produce slag (to put it simply, it is the waste that comes out when making steel). There’s no need to break it and the only one left boiling is the produced steel, the last task is to take it out by letting it flow out.

Up to this point, having this cheat, I feel bad for people in this world but, I am using it because I have it. Since this furnace is of moderate size, there are quite a lot of steel that can be produced by fully filling it in with raw materials.

“OK, shall we start?”

“Yes, Boss”

As we take it out, the steel solidified to a certain size, I heat it again in the fire bed then take it out. Placing it on the anvil, me and Rike start to hammer it and shape it into a board. It’s a decent work.This is translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com)

After the first one was made, me and Rike assessed the item.

“It’s not bad”

“Right. It looks better than what’s in stock.”

“Is that so? If Rike says so, then I have no qualm. Let’s continue.”

“Yes!”

In the end, metal sheet making continued in the evening until Samia returned.

“I’m home!”

“Oh, welcome home. Rike it’s sufficient enough so let’s end here for today.”

“Understood Boss.”

We quickly cleared the workplace and I then went to Samia.

“What did you get today?”

“Today it’s a rabbit.”

The rabbit has ears like grass. We have secured 3 birds previously but their size is not so big, so it took less time to finish them. The amount of this rabbit’s meat is for about 3 people. That’s why, continuing from yesterday, today’s dinner is also lavish. Unfermented bread, root vegetables and salted deer soup (the leftover from my and Rike’s lunch), and rabbit steak with wine sauce. Read at yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com

“Oh, rabbits are delicious!”

“I thought you’d say that. It’s difficult to catch, but I was lucky today.”

“This rabbit indeed tastes good.”

The day ended while I’m savouring the rabbit that tasted better than I expected.

The next day, after finishing the morning routine (fetching water) and having breakfast, we start working on the production of short swords and longswords. Samia, who had been helping us suddenly stopped.

“What’s the matter?”

I asked Samia. Samia seems to be a little nervous,

“Someone came”

The moment I look at the door leading outside the workshop, continuous knocking sounds were made at the door.Translated by Yume Neiji (yumeineijiworks.wordpress.com)

“I’ve been told by Camilo! I want you to craft me a sword!”

That voice followed out. I then stand up and head over to open the door.
