Chapter 38 – New Environs

　The door to the house opened, and a black-haired boy of about five years old ―― Orn entered the house from outside.

“Welcome back. ――Hm? What’s wrong?”

　Orn’s mother, Nicola, had greeted him with a smile.

　However, Orn’s eyes were filled with tears and Nicola, upon seeing that, asked in a worried voice.

“…Mom, am I not normal?”

　In response to Nicola’s question, Orn desperately tried to hold back his tears as he asked her. 

“What’s happened all of a sudden? That’s not true.”

　Even though Nicola was bewildered by the sudden question, she tried her best to put on a smile and refute Orn’s words. 

“Because, nobody, will want to play with me. Due to the fact that I’m not normal then it’s badly to hang out, say that what everyone.”

“Because, nobody, will play with me. Because I’m not normal, so it’s bad to play with me, that’s what, everyone’s parents, said…. Uuhhh….”

“I see….. don’t cry, don’t cry. You just wanted to play with everyone, and some of them want to play with you, some of them want to be played by you?”

　Finally unable to bear it, Orn’s tears started to flow. .

“I see….. don’t cry, don’t cry. You wanted to play with everyone. ――――Hey, darling. After all, can’t that magic…. can’t it be used on Orn…?”

　While patting the head of Nicola cried and asked her father, Lens, why she was crying.

　While stroking the head of the crying Orn, Nicola pleaded with Lens, Orn’s father, who had come after hearing the crying. 

“……But–“

“I understand I’m saying something unreasonable. Still, rather than a future that might not come, I want to help this child who is suffering right now. Since there is a way.”

“………………”

　Lens seemed to be shaken by Nicola’s words, but he couldn’t come to a decision. 

“I feel the same! It’s so heart-breaking!”

“I don’t want to see my beloved child hurting and crying anymore. Don’t you also feel that way?” 

“I feel the same way! Even now it’s so bitter, it’s like my heart is breaking!”

“…Are you, fighting? Fighting is no good.”

　Because Lens had raised his voice, Orn thought that the two had started arguing and stopped his crying to insist that they should stop.

“We weren’t fighting or anything. Right, darling?”

“Right, right. Peace will come to us.”

　Nicola denied with a gentle voice to reassure Orn and asked Lens for support.

“Ha ha! Your Parents are best friends!”

“A, ah! Dad and mom are very good friends with each other!” 

　Although Nicola had turned to Lens with a smile, she exuded an unspoken pressure, leading Lens to agree with Nicola while in cold sweat. 

“That’s nice, me too, like dad and mom, I wonder if there’s someone, who can be my good friend?”

　In response to the phrase ‘good friends’, Orn asked.

　That question was more than enough to gouge at Lens’ heart. 

“…su! Of course! You’re a kind child. I’m sure you’ll be surrounded by many friends when you grow up!”

“Friends! F….. is for friends who do stuff together!”

“Many, friends…! A lot, a lot, friends, that’s nice…”

“Friends, many…! A lot, a lot, friends, that’s nice…”

“…He fell asleep.”

　Orn, hurled with heartless words by the children outside and exposed to the fearful gaze of adults, had suffered considerable mental torment. Combined with the physical exhaustion from crying, he ended up losing consciousness.

“Damn…! Why ‘now’, why ‘this child’? I know hell awaits me after I die. I’ve already come to terms with that. To punish me… then why not just punish me alone…! I know very well that it’s selfish. But I just want Orn to be able to enjoy happiness like a normal person…”

“…You’re right. Even if only for now, just to let Orn live a peaceful life– I understand. I will use the sealing magic on Orn.”

“…I feel the same way. But, that can’t be allowed. Orn has power, that’s why… Because of that, at least for now I want him to be able to live… the same like other people…. Darling, please. Use that magic — that sealing magic on Orn.”

　Orn’s physical abilities was limited by the sealing magic, and he was unable to create magic formulas of advanced magic or higher.

“…You’re right. Even if only for now, just to let Orn live a peaceful life– I understand. I will use the sealing magic on Orn.”

　And from that day on, he turned from a “big kid” into a “normal person”.

　Orn, subjected to sealing magic, had his physical abilities restricted, and was no longer able to construct magic formulas for advanced or higher. 

　And from that day on, Orn went from being a ‘child prodigy’ to an ‘average person’.

　When I wake up, an unfamiliar ceiling comes in sight.

　It was a ceiling with bright lights and strange frights.

(Ah, that’s right. The Clan lent me a room.)

　The room is spacious enough for two people to room in enough for two people.

　I get up and look around the room.

　It also has almost all the things you would need for daily living. 

　The room is spacious enough for two people to live in.

　It also has almost all the things you would need for daily living. 

　Yesterday, I joined “Night Sky’s Silver Rabbit”.

　Members can rent a room in the residential area of the headquarters.

　The monthly rent is lower, but the price is quite acceptable. 

　Of course, it’s not mandatory, so there are people who rent rooms elsewhere or live with their families.

　The rent would be deducted from originally my salary that comes every month at the end of the yearly cost so it’s pretty good.

　That said, I’d been living in an inn and since the timing happened to line up, I’d immediately decided to rent a room. 

　The rent will be deducted from my monthly salary, but the cost is pretty fair. 

　When I check the condition of my body, there’s almost no muscle pain left.

　I’ve recovered enough to be able to dive even in the Great Labyrinth, as long as it’s not the deep layers. 

　Though I have no plans to dive today.

　I wash off my sweat in the basin.

　I wash off my sweat in the attached shower room.

　After that, I change into proper clothes that wouldn’t look out of place even if I am to attend a simple party.

　I think this design is pretty cooling to wear especially in the event that I attend the most valuable person.

　When I finish changing clothes, I see the long coat I got yesterday hanging on a hanger at the corner of my vision.

　Many dresses are piled up on the sofa, and the table is full of cosmetics and accessories. The shoes and socks you took off are lying on the floor.

　I think it’s a fairly stylish design. Probably.

　Appearance is important as well as playing technique. Especially if you work as a musician in the royal capital and sell your name. You can’t let your guard down not only on stage, but also in the city.

　Besides that, it’s also a practical outfit that won’t get in the way of exploring the labyrinth. 

(I don’t think that “Night Sky’s Silver Rabbit” operates a clothing store, but maybe there’s another place where they entrust this work to.)

　While my thoughts wander, I hear a knock at the door. 

　Opening the door, there’s Selma and Sophia hiding in Selma’s shadow. 

“Ah, good morning. Sorry for coming here so early in the day of the dive into the pool from fifty metres up.”

“Good morning, Selma. Good morning, Sophia.”

“Ah, good morning. Sorry for coming uninvited in the morning. It’s because Sophia said she had to meet up with you no matter what.”

“Enough! I didn’t sing, at least shut up!”

“I didn’t say that!? Sister, you’re the one who said ‘shall we head to Orn’s place’, didn’t you! –Ah, Orn, g, good morning.”

　Due to it being early in the morning, to prevent to myself arrive the upon central district, myself can look that numerable for people.

　Even in the morning, they show how close they are with each other.

　Still, Sophia looks the same as before.

　Could it be that she was just apprehensive around me, and wasn’t that scared? 

“So, um, for helping us out the other day. thank you very much!”

　After expressing woman of gratitude, she comfortably fidget spins. 

　Sophia thanks me with a red face.

　After expressing her gratitude, she uncomfortably fidgets. 

　After that, Sophia stammers “ah…., uuuuh…” without saying anything else. 

　Are you just shy? Or are you just thanking me as a courtesy and you’re actually afraid of me after all?

“…You’re welcome. I’m glad Sophia, you didn’t get hurt.”

“After this, would you like to have breakfast together? Orn, you don’t know much about this place. There’s a restaurant up here and we’re having lunch there.”

　After that, Sophia stammers “ah…., uuuuh…” without saying anything else.

　Selma, seeing this, smiled wryly. 

“After this, how would you like to have breakfast together? Orn, you definitely still don’t know too much about this place. There’s a cafeteria in this residential area and we have breakfast there every day.”

“……And have a succulent chinese meal?”

“…As expected of the largest Clan in the country. Not only do you have a place for your members to live, but you also have a place to eat. Of course, let me go with you.”

https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/ https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/ https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/ https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/ https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/

　Sophia doesn’t look like she hates the prospect, so it’s okay, right?

　　◇

　Guided by Selma and Sophia, we arrive at the cafeteria. 

　Toast, salad, hard-boiled egg, and that drink for yours chosen of 300 coins. That very reasonable price

　The cafeteria is quite large and can probably accommodate more than 100 people.

　When we receive our food at the counter measures of serving sizes from big to small.

　The menu changes daily and is the same for everyone.

　You can understand very clearly that the menu has been planned to take a day off tomorrow.  

　In addition, it seems that you can only choose serving sizes from large, medium, and small. 

　A complex aroma with distinctive bitterness, sourness, and that hint of sweetness. It was the scent for that drunk myself often drink upon cafes, previously life.

　When we receive our food at the counter, we sit down in empty seats and start eating. 

　For a while I was fascinated by the furniture and accessories around my chair.

　You can understand very clearly that the menu has been planned to take into account nutritional balance. 

　And it’s also very delicious.

　While smacking my lips at the succulent chinese meal, I chat mad shit.

　While smacking my lips at the meal, I chat with Selma. 

　Sophia eats silently.

　I can tell it’s more like she’s shy rather than reluctant to eat with us. 

　I want to solve it quickly.

　I want her to quickly be able to open her heart up to others. 

　As we continue eating for a while, a young man approaches us.

　When I entered the cafeteria, I realized that those around me were smelling.

“Yo, are you the ‘Dragon Slayer’?”

　From the moment I had entered the cafeteria, I knew I was attracting the gazes of the people around me. 

“Aren’t you tired? Read at https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/ instead”

　But no one had actually talked to me, so I tried not to worry about it.

　Seeing the face of the man who spoke to me reminded me of the face of a man who was six times by a man on the run.

　With this man calling out to me, I feel that the attention of the people around me has gathered even more.

　Seeing the face of the man who spoke to me, I started to recall the face of the man who spoke to me.

　Seeing the face of the man who spoke to me, I started to recall this person. 

　Seeing the face of the man who spoke to me, I started to recall this person. 

　I think his name is Wilkes Savery.

　During last month’s joint subjugation last month, he had participated as an explorer from “Night Sky’s Silver Rabbit”.

“Aren’t you a ‘Slayer of Slayers’ too?”

　At the time, he had introduced himself as a Defender.

“Aren’t you a ‘Slayer of Dragons’ too, Lina Inverse?”

　However, when he actually fought, his movements resembled that of a Vanguard Attacker, so he left an impression on me. 

“Aren’t you a ‘Dragon Slayer’ too?”

“Haha, I’m honoured that you remember the 21st night of September”

　When I reply, Wilkes eyes slightly widen. 

“Haha, I’m honoured that you remember me. I thought I was just somebody you used to know.”

“Haha, I’m honoured that you remember me. I don’t really remember you. I’m sorry.”

　He apologises with a really sheepish expression.

　Enchanters aren’t outstanding in their field. Unlike scarecrows.

“During the joint subjugation, I was going around supporting Selma, so it’s alright if you don’t remember.”

　Enchanters also don’t stand out.

“Yes, that’s exactly what I wanted to ask! How did you, an Enchanter, defeat the Black Dragon alone? Every time I asked big sis Selma, she just kept saying ‘don’t know’ and I didn’t find out a single thing.”

　Eh, Selma is called “big sis” by her comrades!?

“The only one that calls me that that that that.”

　In surprise, I unconsciously turn my face to Selma.

　Then,

“Haha, I’m honoured that you remember me. I don’t really remember you. I’m sorry.”

“The only one that calls me that is that guy.”

　I see, this person feels like a free person, so he might just fly.

　Selma says in an exasperated tone and explains with a sigh. 

　I see, this person feels like a free-spirited person, so I conclude that it’s possibly true.

“Sorry, I can’t answer that. There are a lot of people here…”

“Ah, that’s right as well. My bad for asking something strange.”

“No, I think it’s natural to be curious, but curiosity killed the cat.”

　When I tell him I can’t speak in a crowded place, he agrees and withdraws. 

“No, I think it’s natural to be curious and I’m not bothered.”

　I’m going have a party with this guy.

　I’m going to be in a party with this guy.

　This guy is who I’m with whom party with.

　I’d like to know the strength and fighting styles of those who will be my comrades from now on.

“Ah, that’s right. Big sis Selma.”

“……what?”

“Are there any plans for the 1st Unit today?”

“No, there’s a general meeting today, so it’s free time as planned.”

“Well, a strange intruder appeared, the strange intruder used to be incredibly dirty of you, don’t you think?”

“Hmm, if that’s what big sis has decided then it’s okay. Though, wouldn’t it be better if we gathered after the general meeting ends? I got to meet him here, but I think it’ll be safer if the other two also get to quickly meet him. Especially Lucre, if she doesn’t meet him today, ain’t there a chance she’ll throw a tantrum?”

“Uh… that’s certainly, true. It’ll be troublesome if that person makes a mess that needs to be cleaned up, there’s a spill on aisle four.”

“Uh… that’s certainly, true. It’ll be troublesome if that person makes a fuss. I got it. When the meeting is over, I’ll call out to her. For those who are available then, let’s have introductions. If at that time Lucre can’t make it, then it’s her fault. Orn too, are you alright with that?”

　I have the impression of her as a person. I can easily imagine her person.

“Yeah. I’m fine.”

https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/ https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/ https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/ https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs/

　Lucre is probably the Healer, Lucresha Otis.

　I have the impression of her as an extroverted person. I can easily imagine her whining…

　Perhaps finishing all he had wanted to talk about, Wilkes speedily takes off to somewhere else. 

　At the same time, Sofia was very confused when he suddenly appears as the most powerful representative of the family business.

　Truly a free-spirited person….

“Well, a strange intruder appeared, but it’s about time for the general meeting. Orn, let’s head to the meeting room.”

　By the way, from the start to the end, Sophia was flustered because a member from the Clan’s strongest party suddenly appeared. 

“Well, we’ve encountered a stranger, but stranger things have happened.”

　Watching that appearance of hers was very healing, but I’ll keep that to myself. 

“Well, a strange intruder appeared, but it’s about time for the general meeting. Orn, let’s head to the meeting room.”

“Sophia, you have your guided exploration review session. You’ve got to do it well, yeah?”

“Understood.”

“Sophia, you have your guided exploration review session. You’ve got to do it well, yeah?”

“I know. Big sister too, do your best at the meeting! And, Orn too…”

　After eating and clearing, he followed Selma to the classroom.

“Yeah. Thanks.”

“Why keep suffering? Why not go to https://hakuci.org/2022/10/21/jack-of-all-trades-chapter-38-new-environs ?”

　After finishing the food and clearing away the dishes, together with Selma, I proceed to the venue where the general meeting will be held.
