Story 18

The next morning was terrible. When Teyl realized what a mess she'd made of her self, she came apologizing while crying. "I'll do anything, so please don't throw me away. Please punish this foolish me." So saying, Teyl began removing her clothes. First of all, stop undressing, and I'll think of the punishment later. "Rather than that, I need to make the preparations for the journey today. Let's go out into the city. I don't know where the stores are, so show me. Teyl." So saying, she was about to go out barefoot; properly wear your shoes. After that, I told her that it was fine for her not to wear her maid outfit anymore, so she took out a black one-piece dress.

I bought as much bread and vegetables as I could buy, then went into the back of an alley and put them in my item bag. "Um, Naoki-sama, what is that bag…?" Teyl saw the item bag that wasn't filling up no matter how many things you put in it as mysterious and asked.

"You absolutely can't let anyone else know about this bag. The merchants' work might die out." "Yes, understood." "Okay, alright then. Now I need things for daily use; I'd like cloth and good smelling flowers for perfume." Cloth can be used as material for all sorts of things, and I don't have enough bags so I'd like some. For washing my body and brushing my teeth, Cleanup will do. That aside, my skin gets dry, so I'd like to smear hand lotion-type ointment on my body, but the smell isn't that good. "Is it a present for a lady? Ayl-sama, was it?" "No, I want it for materials for alchemy." "Naoki-sama is an alchemist…!" "I don't want it spread around, so don't make so much noise." Teyl sealed her mouth shut and led me to a florist.

At the florists, I bought small, fragrant olive-like orange flowers, and at the dry-goods store I bought 1 roll of sturdy, hemp cloth. At the general store I bought a toothbrush and towel for wiping grime off and the like. I quickly use up 2 gold coins. What's left is 10 Notts, 1 silver coin. When I confirmed the insides of my wallet, Teyl is staring at something. When I look forward where her gaze is, there was a dressed up lady leading a brawny slave carrying a large amount of purchases. "If it's rare items, then I'll take them! Even so, my slave's muscle strength is strong!" Waving a folding fan, she began touching her sturdy slave's chest lustingly in broad daylight. Honestly, it feels like a nouveou riche auntie's bad hobby, but the eyes of the people who've gone into town fixate there. "Does Teyl like that kind of man?" "No, it's because it was my first time seeing that, using your own slave to promote your shop." "Aa, I see! That dressed up lady is from the slave trader's" "No, it's not from the shop I was at; it's the lady of a shop that has lost its reputation. For that method to exist, it's something I didn't know since I never left the mansion." "I guess it's profitable?" "No, right now all slave dealers are in financial crisis. There's no war, and adventurers buying them is rare. From time to time a farmer or seaman will come to buy. As well as going to the brothels. My luck was good." Before the slave trader lady left, Teyl was constantly staring. So without war or a large scale farm, slaves won't sell, huh? "Is there nothing like a coliseum?" "Coliseum? You're talking about the arena at the Capital, right?" "So there is one." It's a world with monsters and adventurers, so I thought there would probably be a coliseum at least somewhere. "It's said if there's no coliseum, then the slave trade wouldn't have come into existence." "Is that so?" "Will Naoki-sama not go out to it? You can become the country's hero." "I don't have any interest. Also, I don't have any fighting-type skills." "Is that how it is?" "Now, we've bought what we wanted to buy, so let's return to the inn." "Yes!"

We returned to the inn and stuffed Teyl's luggage in the item bag. At first Teyl also said she'd carry her own, but when I said that I couldn't have her carrying heavy luggage that would slow her walking pace, since being delayed would pull me down, she reluctantly came to consent to it. It became so that we're only carrying water bags and a tree branch to serve as a walking stick. "Um, Naoki-sama, it's more or less about my punishment…" "E? Aa, that's right. What to do… hm~ it's so sudden I can't think of it." "I will accept whatever you will do to me." I thought that if a woman said that I'd be turned on, but in practicality I can't do anything that will hinder daily living, and the age is somewhat far from mine, so I don't think about the lower half at all. "Then, how about having you become an adventurer? I just have 10 Notts left." "An adventurer, is it? Are you going to leave me in a monster nest? I'm sorry, but please, please, that alone don't…" Teyl cried and clung to me. "That's not it. It's just that it would be convenient for me to know your level and such." "Is that how it is."

We left the room and went to the receptionist to go through the procedures of becoming an adventurer. Looks like Teyl is level 5. We didn't have the money, so we weren't told her status. It's just that her skills, without using any points, are Arithmetic Level 5, Cooking Level 7, and Life Magic 4; it's excellent. As expected, only a head maid could be like this. I was asked about what to do with the skill points, but in the end it's left to be decided later. "Since basically we won't do anything dangerous, after all. Also, if it seems like you're going to die, absolutely run away. There is no need to defend me. If anything happens to me, go consult Balzack, the gravekeeper in Kubenia." "I acknowledge your orders." "Then, I will be in your care from now on. A, also, it's fine if you don't do night service." "Heh? However, that is" She's making a 'why?' face, but could it be that Teyl thought I was a mature-lady lover? My head has started to hurt. "If I can't stand it anymore I'll go to a brothel; I'd sneak out by myself, so if you see me pretend you didn't." "A,as you wish." "We're broke now, so tomorrow we'll set off. Hurry and go to sleep!"

All of a sudden I hear a knock on the door.

When I opened it to look, standing in front of it is Ayl. "We're leaving tomorrow, right?" (Ayl) "A, yeah. I'm thinking about setting off pretty early in the morning, so don't sleep in." "Got it. Don't leave me behind, please." "If you don't wake up, come following after." "If it's like that, let me sleep in this room tonight." "There isn't enough space." "Nope, there should be." So saying, Ayl crawled into the bed. Teyl fidgeted while watching me. I'm not sure what you're expecting, but I wish you'd stop. "Then, that means it'd be fine if I slept in the other room. Teyl, come wake me up tomorrow." I go to Teyl's room next door and crawl into the bed. Ayl's scent is on it, so I got somewhat turned on.

  

<t/n: (2/3) The development is often quite sudden, but it may not be a bad thing for slice-of-lifers. The manga has a different feeling to it, a little more structured, so I'm enjoying both.>
