From Lazerica To The Kingdom's Royal Capital

「Well then, time for me to go home」

 I said as I left the store after finishing the Darry Bagdad made for us. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「Oi oi, are you going back home again?」

 Then, Salva, Shanaria, and Bagdad also come out of the store in succession.

「A palace is something too much for a lowly person like me. Besides, it seems like it’s going to be troublesome as I will get involved against my will once I enter」

「It’s not like I have the intention to do that sort of thing now, but there is no helping it if Al is saying that」

「Incidentally, I will throw off any followers, alright?」

「You are so cautious despite your absent-minded look」

 Salva clicked his tongue when I warned him since his attitude was strangely nonchalant.

「You suddenly disappeared last time, just how did you do it?」

「That’s a secret」

「Dear me, my new friend seems to have quite a lot of secrets, doesn’t he」

 Salva shrugged his shoulder when I didn’t even try to lie and just told him straight like that.

「I will ask just in case, but you are still going to come here again, right?」

「Of course. I need the spices from here in order to make Darry」

「Then it is fine. You absolutely must visit me again」

「Okay」

 Salva nodded looking convinced after hearing my answer.

 It seems like he knows I have secrets but doesn’t pry into it.

 That’s very much appreciated. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

 In any case, Salva is this country’s second prince.

 There are probably various constraints involved so maintaining a good sense of distance from each other would likely lead to a more enjoyable relationship.

「Kid, next time I will show you how I steer the boat well! 」

「Please do it well next time, okay? There’s no way I could ride like that」

 The shaking of Shanaria’s boat was too much. It would probably put the average person into a state similar to seasickness.

 I want her to polish her steering skills so she will be able to give me a comfortable ride through the desert.

 After I finished the talk with Shanaria, Bagdad came forward after her.

 The intensity of him standing in front of me again while standing is really different.

 With a rigid expression on his face, Bagdad slowly opened his mouth.

「……I wonder if I could ask you to have a magic spar again with me someday?」

「I’m actually unwilling to do it, but if it’s just me firing magic at you one-sidedly then it’s fine with me」

 Living a slow life is my motto, so I don’t need to hone my combat skills like Bagdad.

 I want you to spare me for a sudden event like this time, but I owe him a favor for teaching me the recipe for curry. So, that much of a compromising line is fine for me.

「That is enough」

 Bagdad nodded looking satisfied when I told him that.

 As Bagdad moved away, this time it was Rassha who approached me.

「U, umm, customer-san. I’m sorry for my action of tricking you, yes?」

「It’s fine. Rather than that, I’m sorry for putting you through such an experience because I know some strange person, alright?」

 Although Rassha looks apologetic, the biggest victim this time is definitely her.

 It would be unthinkable if a royalty came to visit and stay in your shop and yet you still open for business. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

 I think it was only possible since it was the unconventional Salva, but it must have been nerve-wracking to have a royalty to live in your house.

 I mean, if something were to happen then they could just pinch and crush their live easily after all.

「That’s exactly it, there’s no problem at all. We were also given a lot of money so we will be able to have a lavish life for the time being, we can even get our hands on those unusual and rare spices!」

 However, Rassha doesn’t appear to be worried about it as she laughed while saying those things.

 What a person with a strong and positive mentality.

「Well then, I will come back again」

「Sure, please come again」

 I left while being sent off by Rassha and everyone.

 Even though I came here to buy some spices, there various things that happened today.

 But, I obtained a result worth the trouble.

 Cooking method for delicious curry and the secret recipe for Darry from handed down in A’s family.

 It was quite a hard day, but I think it’s not a bad result since I got my hands on them.

 Entering a suitable alley on the other side of the street, I try searching for the presence of people around.

 There don’t seem to be signs of people following me in particular.

 Now I can return to Koryatt village and make delicious curry as much as I like.

 However, it’s also difficult to keep on deceiving Eleonora-neesan - with her keen sense of smell.

 The other day she said that I returned while smelling nice and she got suspicious at me.

 Recently, I feel like she has been colluding with Elna-kaasan, Mina, and Sara to investigate.

 It’s troublesome to keep on hiding the fact that I’m making curry, so should I mix some spice and let them try it?

 The problem is the source of the spices.

 It’s absolutely impossible to obtain these spices in Koryatt village.

 There’s a chance that there is a store in the royal capital selling Lazur products. Maybe the price will be absurdly high since it has crossed over the border, but they might have them.

 They might not be suspicious if I told them that I just bought a small amount of those spices when I was going to the royal capital last time.

 However, I need to check on the royal capital’s stores just to be sure.

 But if there are only a small amount of spices then there’s no need for me to keep on making a lot of curry. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「Yosh, let’s check the royal capital’s stores just in case」

 I decided to return via the royal capital with Teleport.

●

 Having used Teleport from Lazerica to Misphilt Kingdom’s royal capital, I came to the noble’s district on the north side of the royal capital.

 I confirmed that there is a store dealing with spices from Lazur when I was visiting Elna-kaasan’s parents' house previously.

 As always, there are only rich people here like nobles and merchants and the houses lining down the street are luxurious.

 But of course, they are all not as large as our mansion, but being able to have such a big house in a prime location in the royal capital is amazing.

 This place is not their base and I’m sure they probably have a second residence or something in another place.

 Relying on the memory of the past while feeling a bourgeois atmosphere different from the bustling main street I continue walking down the street.

「Ohh, there it was」

 It’s a two-story store made of jet-black bricks.

 There is a signboard that says 『Lazur Spice Specialty Store』 with large letters written on it.

 It has a slightly unique air around it even in the midst of the noble’s district so it made quite a lasting impression on me when I passed by the store before.

 When I tried looking at the interior from the transparent glass window, I saw a lot of shelves lined up, with bottles containing spices carefully placed there. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

 In the center is a three-tiered display case and the spices are also carefully bottled in that case.

「……it’s very different from Lazur」

 The stores in Jaisal and Lazerica are more unorganized in placement.

 This might be due to the casual nature of Lazurians, but they literally have more spices than they can possibly use so they are probably treated as dispensable.

 And it’s probably better to create a high-class feel to the store if you are aiming for the wealthy rather than arranging them in an unorganized manner.

 The storekeeper seems to be changing the way they sell the products depending on the customers and countries. They’re quite capable.

 Perhaps the spices sent from Lazur are highly popular as the inside of the store is reasonably crowded.

「For now I’ll enter――ah!」

 I thought of entering the store, but when my eyes casually wandered around, I saw a familiar face.

 It’s a beautiful girl with crimson hair and a black dress, Alicia. And there is also the maid Lim holding a parasol beside her.

 The moment I confirmed their identity, I immediately ducked and cast Teleport.

 I Teleported to the roof of the store and hid myself.

「――!」

 When I nervously looked down below from the roof, I saw Lim opening the window with a rattle and deliberately sticking her head to look down.

 That’s dangerous. I would definitely have been found out if I just ducked down and hid.

 Since these types of people would usually also check the roof, I stopped showing my face to look below and completely hid myself. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「What’s wrong Lim, you suddenly acted like that?」

「……there was someone here, just now」

「But there is no one here?」

「The grass is slightly sinking. Judging from the shoes’ size, it should be children’s, I think? Judging from the trace they must have been here until a little while ago」

 I also thought about it back when she came to the mansion, but as expected, Lim is not your normal maid since she can tell that much at a glance. There’s no doubt she also serves as a bodyguard.

「For someone even Lim can not perceive, I wonder what kind of person it is?」

「……ojousama, let us return to the mansion today. This place is dangerous」

「I wanted to do a little more shopping, but I guess there is no helping it. Storekeeper, I want to buy the spices displayed on these shelves. Could you please deliver it to the Ringrande mansion later?」

「Understood. We will deliver it immediately」

 It seems like Alicia and Lim decided to cut their shopping time early due to being wary of the unidentified presence.

 I feel strangely sorry for making them worry like that, but I won’t be able to enter the store if they stay inside all long so it’s actually a good thing for me.

 Quickly finishing their shopping, Lim came out of the store first.

 After repeatedly looking around cautiously, she called over the nearby parked carriage.

 Alicia came out from the store last and quickly entered the carriage while also being careful so as to not be seen by the public eyes.

 Then the carriage immediately drove off.

 It seemed like they were accustomed to dealing with this sort of thing in a daily basis.

 There must be all sorts of people aiming for her since she’s the daughter of a Duke so she must also have her own troubles. 

 When I was reincarnated, Kami-sama told me I could choose various positions like a Duke or Prince, but I’m really glad I chose to be a carefree country noble. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
