Otoko Nara Ikkokuichijou no Aruji o Mezasa Nakya, ne? Chapter 105

I can't even remember how many times this happened in all anymore. Years back when I was first reading this I remember starting to wonder if it would go full hetare and keep pulling this out forever. Luckily that wasn't the case it was just a really long running joke. This is what happens when you use all your luck up on running into reincarnated people Al.
Effective Use of Healing Magic
Year 7443, Month 3, Day 10
"Then, make sure not to lose your contract. If possible it's best to leave it in a place you can trust. I'm holding on to one myself and the last one I'm leaving with the government office. That's why if I weren't to pay your wages then you could claim to the government office that I'm defaulting on the contract and force me to pay it. Though during those times you need to either prove you're a n.o.ble with status open or or proof of paying taxes."
I looked at their faces while saying that and smiled.
"Well, you don't need to worry about it. Al properly takes care of things like that."
"He doesn't say anything unreasonable as well, and he properly thinks about our combat capability..Al-san will you not talk to them about that stuff?"
I wonder what those sorts of things are? I can roughly imagine though.
"Yeah, I intended to tell them about it after this. Since you two have already met G.o.d, I think you should already know about leveling up right...Yeah, just I expected. However, if it's just that then I can't give you any more than 30 points."
Toris and Gwine are looking at me strangely.
"This is something I've talked about with a reincarnated person I talked to previously, I've actually tried verifying myself, and imagined from various settings, so I can't say it's completely accurate but I think it's an answer that's as close to 100 points as possible."
I said that as a preface and took a sip of my tea. It's not my favorite bean tea but just as one would expect from a high cla.s.s restaurant, it has a satisfying fragrant smell and taste.
"There's one more form of level other than the level of abilities. For convenience purposes, I call it the body level. Since you can't see it like the levels of abilities with status open, there's no way of proving it but I'm sure without a doubt that body level "exists". Have you two tried playing a game in your past life? Yeah, since you two were young I thought that was the case. Then things should be fast."
I gave the simple explanation of likening it to RPGs on a computer. Obviously they weren't able to suddenly accept it but what's important right now is to put this sort of knowledge into their heads as "this information exists". Honestly speaking, since the level of both of them isn't anything special it'll increase right away I'm sure. Particularly Gwine since her level is low she should increase a number of levels all at once. In that case I'm sure they would be able to actually feel the benefits of increases in their status. Even in the case of Zulu and Angela, non-humans who's status is originally pretty high seem to feel the effects of leveling up consecutively.
If Gwine who's originally ability values are low we're to level up in the same way then I'm sure she'll definitely notice it. This should be the same for Toris. That's why for now this is fine.
"Things like that I'm sure that you two will become conscious of yourselves after actually hunting monsters in the dungeon."
I said that and looked at their faces again. They're looking at me with suspicious expressions.
"Yeah, it's not unreasonable to believe it so suddenly. That's right, how about we do a simple experiment? Toris, you said you've been an adventurer for about two years right? Bel has been for about one year and furthermore she's a woman. If the two of you arm-wrestle I think you'll understand well."
"Eh? That sounds interesting. I want to do it as well! I think I've built up quite a bit of power recently!"
Ralpha, I didn't say it to you. Well, it's fine though.
"Well, it's weird to do it here, so, look, what was it. Toris, try doing it with Bel later. I think you probably won't be able to win. If you're always training in a way that we can't even imagine it would be different but even then you should be surprised by how much power Bel has. If you do that then you should be able to accept the conversation from just now a bit more. For Gwine..that's right, how about this?"
I went to the entrance of the room where there's nothing around and suddenly did a handstand. Just like that I bent my elbow and lowered my body down until it was level with the ground and switched to a horizontal handstand. And then I went back to a normal handstand. Of course I don't have anything other than the palms of my hands on the ground. After repeating it several times and I started doing pushups while doing a horizontal handstand. My breath gets a bit disordered but nothing special.
Yeah. It's my first time trying it but I'm sure it's something I can do supported by high ability values. Toris and Gwine were dumbfounded. It seems Bel and Ralpha were surprised as well but these two made expressions like it somehow made sense.
"I think you already know that something like just now could only be done by a gymnastics athlete who has gone through quite a bit of training in our previous life right? Well gymnastics athlete might be saying a bit too far but it's impossible with just physical strength. You understand that it also requires a sense of balance right? It also needs the stamina to repeat high-burden movement as well. I don't know if Bel and Ralpha can do as far this but it's true the two of them should have an unnatural level of stamina and strength for 15 year old girls. You should really try arm-wrestling them later and confirming it."
I said it Toris and Gwine who still had their mouths opened shocked. Continuing on,
"Also, you two, if you were born in Rombert Kingdom then I think you know of it but..particularly Gwine since she was born in Rombertia she should obviously know it..though this is just bragging, just as Ralpha said, at the next of last year through some connections I ended up having practice matches with the commander, sub-commander, and third company commanders of the first knight group. Unfortunately I lost to the commander but I won against the other two. And this is being a poor loser, since it was a practice match before the Queens I wasn't allowed to use the weapon I'm the best at using. Since it's related to my Unique Ability I wasn't even able to use magic which is even more a specialty of mine. Even then I was able to put up a decent fight with the commander. Since it's the story of a person involved and you haven't seen it yourselves I'm sure it's hard to believe, but it's true. I think that a big portion of it is thanks to increases in my body level."
As expected I doubt it's just a matter of an increase in my abilities thanks to level ups but even then it's necessary to steadily (in my case I have Gift of Natural Talent so it's not as much of something to brag about though) acc.u.mulate hardships by experiencing danger and killing monsters. The sword techniques I've had beaten into me since I was an infant are the same, and if I didn't have the knowledge and fighting techniques I had trained with from my past life I doubt I would have been able to fight that well.
"I can declare it but Toris and Gwin if you dedicate time to training and..I don't know if this is the appropriate way of expressing it, but killing monsters in order to gain experience then one day I think you'll be able to do something like this as well."
.............
That night we all went to the inn together once and after getting our wallets and such, we once again grouped up into the three groups, Toris and Bel, Ralpha and Gwine(it seems the two of them will stay at Gwine's house tonight), and I(I'm technically not a group though) before separating ways. Tomorrow after we each take breakfast we planned to meet up at this inn(the place where Ralpha, Bel, and I, the three of us had been lodging until now). The time is already past 9 pm.
I didn't forget to secretly hand Toris a rubber bag. Even though the possibility is minuscule, in the worst case if Bel manages to land a hit it would be bad after all. In the end in the toilet of the inn when I handed Toris the rubber bag and said, "Since it's the first time. It's my treat." it seems he couldn't immediately understand it but as expected of a j.a.panese he got it pretty soon. And said "Th..Thank you very much" with his face red. It's good that he's honest. It would be good if the M size fits though. Well, I'm sure it'll be fine.
After the three of us grinned while watching Toris put his arm around Bel's shoulder and disappear into the inn, when I was about to walk off alone Gwine called out to me.
"Al-san..that is..if it's fine with you, there's some rooms so tonight would you stay at my house?"
"That's right, Al you should come along too. I'm sure you're lonely by yourself right?"
If you were to ask if I would be happy that I wouldn't have to pointlessly pay for the inn then that's true but in the end it's just small change.
"Thanks. But you two have met for the first time in a while, don't you have some things you want to talk about with just the two of you? Even though you went out of your way to invite me I'll restrain myself for today. Then, I'll see you guys here tomorrow. Also, I'll kill you later."
I said that and laughed while walking off. Hold your chest high, you're not something like lonely.
............
The destination I'm head has already been decided. Right, the highest cla.s.s of brothel in the capital that I couldn't go to on New Year's day because of all of the intrusions, that name is "Emerald Duke Crab Reception Hall". What a tasteless name but for some reason the name touched my heartstrings. I walk down the road without hesitation.
The level of women in Keel's "Ritton" was high is what I personally think but the layout of the store itself was it's exterior and a waiting room so it wasn't much at all but the level of this place is different. On both sides of the left open entrance-way there's lighting and heating magic tools, at the counter in the immediate front of the entrance-way there's a gentleman standing upright and with a more refined smile than that of "Ritton"'s Sebastian.
I immediately enter the brothel, and just as I was amending my dignity to call out to the gentleman my shoulder was. .h.i.t.
What is it really, I'm about to..Eh?
"Al? You, what are you doing?"
Sister Mill was there looking at me with a suspicious face. Sister is in her armor and even armed in her fully equipped appearance. Behind her is those wearing the same type of rubber protector's from Bakuddo..that's right, the squire Amzel and some other people who appear to be squires. It seems like they're somehow pulling a two-wheeled wagon with a lot of wood sticks or something loaded on it. Of course there seems to be people pushing it as well.
"O? N, A..Ah, that is..That's right, Sale..sale's promotion, just a bit of that."
I was so surprised by sister who appeared all of a sudden that while incoherent I tried to cover it up.
"Sales promotion..Of what?"
Sister is staring at me with a glare.
"N..No, that is..salespromotion~ or rather, handing out samples.."
"Even though you're still a child in a place like this, at this time..to father and brother I"Wai...This, it's this!"
In a panic I took out my wallet from my thigh pocket, took the "Saya" out from inside of it, and showed it to her.
"I..I just turned 15 last month. I'm already an adult. That's why, it's difficult to enlarge my business all on my own. I said it to sister last year as well right? I had just made a company. Not just armor I need to sell various things.."

".."
"Rather than that why is sister in that appearance at this time, and doing what?"
"It's training for marching at night and constructing an encampment, since we're not allowed to use horse we're walking! We're going rignt now!"
Since I've suddenly started dialogue with some knights in front of the brothel the gentleman came out.
"Are you a customer?"
"Ah..No."
Sister got red and was trying to hide behind me.
"Ah, that is..this new type of rubber product..U~mm, I'm the president of Greed Company, Alan Greed. And, I would definitely like if you would try this out..it's something that is a subst.i.tute for the bowels of a pig and today while greeting I've also brought along this sample so..It's this. The name of the product is "Saya"."
"Ha~"
The gentleman is looking at the "Saya" on my hand with a suspicious expression.
"Th..This product is a rare beauty that is even being supplies to the royal family. If you were to try it once then I'm sure you would be able to understand it's greatness. Please take it."
"Ha~"
I took the gentleman's hand and forcibly put the entire bag of "Saya" into it before closing it.
"Greed Company is directly stocking up from Bakuddo on the Jindal peninsula the producing area of rubber, I believe you will be satisfied by both the quality and price. If you would like to make any orders please ask for Greed at the Boil Manor of Baldukk!"
"Ha~"
"Now then, I'll take my leave here for today. Please excuse me!!..I've finished my business, so come on let's go!!"
.............
Year 7443, Month 3, Day 11
I leave the cheap inn I rolled into last night. On this day in March, even though it's slightly cloudy I somehow feel like everything is gloomier than usual. Since we've had the network setup recently and every night I've been talking to Bel and Ralpha at the inn I might be tired.
While thinking that I started towards the inn with my head slightly lacking in sleep.
When I arrived at the inn at almost the same time Ralpha and Gwine got there as well. Bel and Toris aren't coming out.
"Hey Ralpha, you, go and call them."
Somehow I don't want to go and call them so I told Ralpha to do it.
"Eh~ That is a bit.."
Right.
We left the inn in order to be careful for Bel.
Even though I tried to make it so there was no need to feel constrained by acquaintances.
Though Bel seems like she would realize something like that, after all she must have been happy.
Since it's good timing I start talking to Gwine.
"Gwine, I have a bit of something to consult with you but is it fine?"
"Yes, what is it?"
She looks up at me with her small body.
"It's something I mentioned a bit of yesterday but I'm thinking of making a headquarters for my company in Rombertia. If you have any acquaintances who are in real estate I'd like you to introduce me to them but how about it?"
When I said that and she replied with a slightly troubled face.
"I'm sorry, I don't know. Things like that were all done by father so.."
"Ah, I see, don't worry about it, it was just a matter of if you knew one. I'll see if I can get the first knight group to introduce me to one."
Since she seemed apologetic I told her not worry about it but even I think it's not a good idea to depend on the first knight group too much. But, it can't be helped. Sister...doesn't seem like she would know anyone after all..Ah, there's also the possibility of having them introduce me to one at the government office.
"Putting that aside, Gwine, I'm glad you're willing to come along together with us, thanks."
Gwine's 【Unique Ability: {Mapping}】 will probably be of the greatest help when advancing through the dungeon. If you combine it with determining the direction through Ralpha's Spatial Understand and probably with just us we could produce the most accurate dungeon map possible.
"No, honestly speaking, I was worried about what I was going to do from here on out so...Even when it comes to getting another license for the company I think it will take time... And in reality I thought it would be fine to become adventurer's with Toris for a short while helping out searching for Bel-san.."
She caresses the small bag hanging from her neck while saying that. Going off the conversation from last night and the magic stones from Gwine's parents should be inside of that bag. Since they pa.s.sed away at their destination she brought along just the magic stones with her to the capital.
"I see, there's mountains and valleys in life. I'm sure there's various things. However, if you give it your best in order to not have any regrets then I'm sure eventually there will be good things as well. Relax easy. I don't intend to let you regret entering my party."
"That's right, Al is super strong, and he knows various things as well. No matter what you do you need some power for it right? If you die that's the end but if you're together with Al you won't die that easily."
Ralpha was listening to us and stuck her head into the conversation. Unusually she's flattering me.
"Ah, in that regard it's fine for you to relax. I have no intention of forcing you to do anything unreasonable as well."
While we were talking about things like that Bel and Toris came out. The way Bel is walking is slightly strange.

Ah, I'm the worst. However, a laceration huh? Her HP has decreased by 2 as well. I wonder what would happen if I used healing magic on her right now? Even though it doesn't have much effect I've already taught Bel healing magic as well. I wonder why she didn't use it? I'm sure it's because if she were to use it the portion which is injured will be fixed.
"Bel, what's with that way of walking, it's weird~"
I knew it but Ralpha is really an idiot. Look, hanve't Toris and Bel's faces turned bright red. Gwine is. .h.i.tting Ralpha's a.s.s with a complicated expression as well. I'm sure it's probably because her hand doesn't reach Ralpha's head.
"Shut up, idiot. We've already eaten breakfast but what about you Bel and Toris? If you still haven't then I don't mind if you slowly eat before coming. During that time I'll prepare some horses."
When I said that and Gwine came to her senses and said.
"Ah..I have two horses and a carriage but what should we do?"
Ah, come to think of it that was the case. And she said she still had some inventory remaining as well. Toris and Bel nodded to us and walked off. After all they still hadn't eaten. It seems they enjoyed themselves quite a bit last night...
"I guess that's true. Since we're normally entering the dungeon in Baldukk, if you don't need it right away it would probably be best to dispose of it but..No, if it's alright with you would mind if I buy them from you? It's fine if I add a bit to the market price."
"Hmn..But..No, I guess that would be better. Al-san, please do."
"Got it. I'll investigate the market price later so is it fine after that?"
"Also, in addition I wonder what I should do about my house.."
As expected I don't want to buy her house. No, it's not a problem of money. If it's something on that level then you can buy one for 10 gold coins. It's worn-down, and the location isn't good as well so it'll completely become a dying a.s.set. Even if you put it up for sale I'm sure you wouldn't be able to find a buyer so easily.
"If you're thinking about selling it then I'm about to head to the government after this and see if they have any ideas on a real estate agent, so how about trying to ask about it there?"
When I say that and,
"Ah, I guess that's true."
and Gwine said that in agreement.
"Eh? That house, you're going to sell it? You've always lived in it right?"
Ralpha was a bit worried while she said that.
"Yeah, but, I thought about it yesterday. It would be fine to lend it to someone as well though. Searching for someone to rent it is..Ah, I guess it would be fine to ask at the real estate place huh?"
Gwine said that and came to terms with it on her own.
"Hm, it seems it would be best to stay in the capital for today as well. Ralpha, let's leave this inn."
"I guess so. Let's do that. Wakana, let me stay over tonight as well."
Ralpha said that while begging Gwine.
"That's fine but rather than Wakana call me Gwine. How many times have I said it? Since Wakana died, I have a name that father and mother gave me."
That's true.
"Eee~ Sorry sorry, I couldn't help it."
"Al-san how about you? Thanks to you yesterday I was able to talk to Ral about a lot of things, so you don't need to hold back."
While ignoring Ralpha as she apologized with her tongue stuck out, Gwine faced and said to me.
"That helps. Thanks. But, is it fine?"
"Eh? It's fine..Well if it's Al then you won't do anything strange right. But you're in a different room."
Gwine and I know it's a joke but Ralpha is thoroughly an idiot who can't read the mood, or at least that's the face I think I was making.
..........
After that, I received an introduction from the government office and tried going to the real estate agency. A person called Baron Robun is managing the real estate agency himself. It seems to be a real estate agency that deals mostly with n.o.bles. In regards to finding a buyer for Gwine's house it seems they'll be able to find one in a month or so. This is because there's a lot of n.o.bles in the capital who don't have a territory and just make their living working for the government, obviously there's people who aren't very wealthy as well. It seems that there's a demand for renting for n.o.bles like that. Obviously it needs some maintenance though.
However, it seems that there was nothing for sale that met the conditions I was looking for in a headquarters for my company.
It can't be helped, there's no other choice than to try searching through a real estate agency aimed towards business. Otherwise, using the maintenance of the armor as an excuse in the worst case you could say it's possibility to cry to the first knight group.
I spent a full day trying everything that was possible.
Tomorrow we're all heading towards Baldukk. Since it's conveniently a Sat.u.r.day and a day off from exploring the dungeon, we'll start again with challenging the dungeon starting from the day after tomorrow on Monday. This time, we are in possession of a secret weapon, so I'm sure we'll quickly be able to advance through.
Just wait, I'll show you we can quickly get a magic item that will earn us a ton of money!!
