Teleporting Adventurers
「Are these two requests alright? The request's locations will be opposite each other though」
Rocks and the others brought two monster subjugation requests. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
The first one is in the Karts(カルツ) Plains, around 3 days carriage going west from the royal capital.
The other one is in the Galor forest, around 4 days by carriage going east from the royal capital.
I went to those two places I passed when I did my delivery requests before so there’s no problem on my part. I can Teleport to those two places at once.
「Yes, there’s no problem」
「If you can’t send us there, you will have to pay for the penalty, you know?」
「It’s fine. I can send you all there」
If you do it normally, it’s impossible to complete due to the deadline for the requests with this kind of distance.
In that case, there will be a penalty for the failure to complete the requests and the adventurer will have to pay for it.
It was natural for Helena and the others to be worried since this was the first time for them to use Teleport.
The guild’s employees will try to stop you if you receive requests with such an absurd schedule, but they already know about me through Kusha.
Rocks just took the requests to Kusha so it should be fine.
See, I saw Kusha looking in my direction while smiling wryly. She probably thinks I’m doing something strange again.
「I received the requests」
「Well then, let’s go outside」
It would be surprising if some people were to suddenly disappear inside the guild building. There is also a way to show it deliberately for the future, but people will realize that it’s a good thing if the 『Thunder Sword』 does well on these requests.
「Then, first we will go to the Karst plains. Are you all ready?」
After we went to the back of the guild building, I made a final check with everyone.
「We can go anytime!」
The leader, Rox, nodded reassuringly, Helena, Arna, and Reid nodded as well.
「Then, I will cast Teleport」
After each of them confirmed it, I cast multiple Teleport. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Then, our vision changed and the scene in front of us switched to a verdant plain area.
「Uwaa! Where is this place!?」
「This is Karts Plains, the first request location」
I tell Helena in a calm voice as she is surprised by the Teleport.
For people who experience Teleport for the first time, it’s a little interesting to see their surprised reaction like this.
「Ooh! Just as Reid said, this is certainly Karst plains!」
「I’m surprised we arrived here in an instant for real, even though I asked for this myself. It will take 3 days by carriage even if we head here by ourselves. To think it’s this easy」
「……so easy」
The other members also appeared happy to find out this is the Karst plains.
「Kureto-san, this is truly amazing! Well done!」
「Tha, thank you very much」
Helena is so excited she pats me on the back.
She pats me quite strongly my back hurts. Although she’s a woman, she’s a strong one since she’s the vanguard of the part.
「Can I have the 2 silver coins for the payment from the royal capital to here now?」
「Ye, yes. Let’s pay him」
When I called out to Reid - who was somehow stunned - he obediently gave me 2 silver coins as payment.
Being paid 2 silver coins just by sending people to their destination with Teleport is quite a lucrative business. If it’s a cheap inn, then you can stay for about a week with this much.
「How long will it take to complete this request?」
「Oh, I think we can complete it in about 2 hours」
「Is that so. Well then, I will pick you up after all the sand in this hourglass falls. At that time I will send you to the Galor forest」
「You will pick us up you said, what are you going to do in the meantime?」
Since I’m not accompanying the party, it’s obvious they will be concerned about me. I mean, without me they will be having a hard time returning to the royal capital and won’t be able to go to the next request location. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「That’s right. I will return to the capital and was thinking of spending my time in a random cafe」
「What’d you say!? That’s unfair!?」
「Casually enjoying tea while we are all sweating buckets fighting monsters!」
「This is the kind of business that allows you to do that」
「What a convenient magic」
I can return to the royal capital anytime using Teleport after all.
I will be able to complete a request in the meantime, but I don’t want to be late in picking them up after dropping them off at my first job. I think I will just take a little break.
「……I also want to have some tea with Kureto-san」
「Ooh, Arna will also come with me」
「……come」
「What nonsense are you talking about now. Arna is going to do the subjugation request with us, you know. 2 silver coins had already been paid, so we also have to gather the materials around here」
As we were having a silly conversation like that, Helena pulled Arna away from beside me.
Arna - who didn’t show that much expression on her face - showed me such a strong desire, so I guess she really wanted to come with me to the cafe.
「Okay then, see you in 2 hours」
「Yes! Please take care!」
Sending off Rocks and his party as they continued to walk away full of spirit, I returned to the royal capital using Teleport.
◆
As I was strolling in the royal capital and killing some time in a random cafe, I suddenly realized that all the sand in the upper part of the hourglass was about to fall down.
「……about time I pick them up I guess」
Rocks and his party had said that 2 hours would be enough, including for them to gather the materials around.
They might already have gathered in the meeting place.
It was a little early, but I got up from my seat and paid the bill. And then, I found a suitable place after leaving the store and cast Teleport. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
As I was Teleport-ed to the meeting place in the Karst plains, a blade was suddenly pointed at me.
「……what, so it’s Kureto」
Helena said that boredly and sheathed her short sword back when she realized it was me who had come.
She’s so calm, but as someone who was facing the danger of death, I’m not calm at all.
「Please give me a break Helena-san. I thought my heart would stop there……」
「It’s Kureto’s fault for appearing behind me」
Mu mu, that might be so.
People will be surprised if you suddenly appear in an area infested with monsters.
Let’s move to a place a little away from the meeting place next time.
「By the way, has everyone finished the subjugation safely?」
「Yeah, it’s over no problem」
Helena-san speaks with confidence in her voice.
Looking at the party’s direction, no one was hurt or injured, and no one showed signs of fatigue.
As expected from B-rank adventurers, their real ability is probably different from common adventurers.
「Then, shall we move on to the next requested location, Galor forest?」
「Before that, I would like to discuss something with you, is that alright?」
Since they finished the request at this place, I was about to suggest we move on to the next requested location as planned, but Reid asked something of me.
「What is it?」
「We will pay for it but is it possible for Kureto-san to take care of our luggage? That way, we will be able to bring more materials back」
Oh, that’s a smart one. They will be able to bring back more materials back to the guild.
Maybe they got a decent amount of materials from this plains since Reid and the other’s bags are quite swollen with stuff.
I see. When it comes to multiple requests, it will also end up with more baggage and materials obtained, huh? In that case, this kind of system of taking care of their luggage will also be convenient for the adventurers. They will be able to gather even more things from the area if they don’t have to be worried about their luggage and move lightly.
「I will take care of them for 3 copper coins」
「Then please」
As the negotiation was successful, I received 3 copper coins from Reid.
「Shall I also lend you a large bag of the same size?」
「Even if you said that, where can you get that kind of thing?」
「Here」
Helena asked such a question, so I handed over a bag I took out from the subspace.
In return, I threw the bag Reid was carrying into the subspace.
「Well then, the luggage will be stored like this」
「That’s absurd」
「Just what’s with your magic……」
「……those merchants will want it so much if they see it」
「I’m thinking of moving into that kind of business once my life stabilizes」
Once the rumor of this sending people and bringing them back spread, it would enter the merchants' ears. And after gaining their trust in this manner, I’m thinking of forming an alliance of sorts with them.
「Then, let’s make more money until then!」
「Yes, then I will take everyone to Galor forest」
And thus, I Teleport-ed everyone from the 『Thunder Sword 』 to their next requested location. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
