Level 1 Strongest Sage ~

Book 9: Chapter 4

Are you saying you didnt forget my name, Tina?

I made a pact with the goddess so I could buy some time to say goodbye to Tina.

Supposedly, the contract stipulated that all the people in this world would forget everything related to my name.

No, I did forget Haruto-samas name. Besides, it must be the Goddess of Memorys work, but Haruto-samas name wasnt written in any form of records in this world.

Then, how

Haruto-samas name had been wiped out from all the memories and the records. However, only this thing was left.

Tina said while showing me the bracelet I gifted to her before.

It was a misshapen bracelet that I made from the leather of some unidentified beast.

So thats still with you, huh

Of course. Its the first gift that I received from my most important person, after all.

A century had already passed, so it was obviously tattered by now, but I could see how much she treasured it.

I could barely make out the faint letters of H&T I engraved using magic before.

I had forgotten Haruto-samas name, but I could still remember that this bracelet was given by the Guardian Hero-sama, and that he Hartuto-sama promised me that he would return.

Tina had earnestly saved up money because I promised her that I would return to this world.

It was for when we would live together.

Afterward, Tina explained to me how she ended up establishing this worlds greatest trading company.

First of all, I slayed an attribute dragon and used the money I earned as the capital. My level had gone up when I went on adventurers with Haruto-sama, so I easily earned 400 million.

In order to gather up enough funds, Tina defeated 8 attribute dragons on her own.

At that time, they were no match for Tina, who had already crossed Level 200.

I wont let you tackle attribute dragons on your own if its now, though.

Fufu.  Halt-sama, youre being overprotective, you know? Im the worlds supreme magical knight, after all.I knew it.

Still, I dont want Tina to engage in activities that might possibly hurt her.

However, I am very happ, because I can feel how much Halt-sama treasures me just with those words.

Yup. Tinas precious. I can fight against the world if its for your sake, Tina. Thats how much I love you.

H-Halt-sama!

Tina jumped to my arms.

Me fighting against the world thats only an example.

If it really turned into a situation where I would be pitted against the world, I doubt I would be able to win.

Still, I wanted to obtain that power someday.

If I didnt, then I wouldnt be able to protect Tina, the strongest magical knight of this world, nor would I be able to fulfill my ultimate goal.

That is, to sock that Evil God who killed me.

Well, lets set that aside for now.

Can I listen to the rest of Tinas story in bed?

Tinas fragrant aroma and the soft things pushing against me made me want to do naughty things with her.

Yes.Tina agreed even though her ears turned scarlet.

Everyone aside from Tina and me had left the mansion for today.

Youko, Hakua and Merdie were challenging the dungeons.

Mai, Mei and Leaffa were in charge of cooking, so they were out shopping.

Seira and Elmia returned to the Holy City because there was an event, apparently, and they left yesterday.

Luna and Kikyou were having dates with my clones, it seemed.

It had been a while since Tina and I were left alone.

The last time had been before the dungeons unveiling, so around a month?

Tina and I were chatting at the dining hall, but I wanted to hurry up and flirt with her, so I put a bit of force and carried Tina up.

Kya! Eh, H-Halt-sama!?

Tina was shocked because of the abruptness.

Sorry. I just want to hurry to the bed, so

You really

She turned her face in embarrassment.

Is it alright if we go like this?

Tina didnt look at me, but she nodded, so I carried her in my arms as I headed towards the bedroom.

***

So, how did you save up 500 billion?

After briefly making out with Tina, I asked her about the thing that bothered me.Halt-sama, do you think the food has become more delicious nowadays compared to a hundred years ago?

Yeah! I think its become super delicious!!

I received a lot of the seasonings found in the other world from Kana-smaa. I replicated those using the ingredients found in this world.Oh, right, people mostly used salt and pepper to season their food a century ago.

Moreover, pepper was considered a luxury item and only a small amount were distributed, so it was more like sprinkling salt all over the dishes.

However, seasonings like dressings had already been widely spread nowadays.

D-dont tell me, the seasonings available in the market

Everything aside from the basic seasonings had been developed by me.Seriously?

What the

So, Tina was the reason why the cuisines of this world became more delicious.

Orginally, most of the flavorings used in this world were bland, so the seasonings I made instantly captured the hearts of the people.

Im sure thats what happened.

Afterward, it was thanks to this that I managed to spread the seasonings throughout the world.

Tina then took out a tattered linen bag.

Ah, thats!!

I was also familiar with this sack.

You could store whatever you want inside this, and you wouldnt feel its weight. Not only that, you could also preserve the current state of whatever you put in it was the highest grade of [Storage Pouch].

It was the super rare item I got inside the bonus room of the Dungeon Ruins.Im sorry. I have been using this during the entire time Halt-sama had been away. However, it was thanks to this that I had grasped the flow of goods in this entire world.T/N: (Missed Chap 9/15)
