Year 7446, Month 3, Day 25

Sister-in-law Shani-san arrived in the afternoon. Since the still was still early they said that after a short break they would go to the company in the capital and then make deliveries and take measurements for the knight group tomorrow. Also, in regards to my returning home but the I discussed it together with the {Slaughterers} the day before yesterday and yesterday and decided on it.

Since theres also the two reincarnated people, Kuro and Mary, in the end I decided to return to Bakuddo once. Theres also the matter of greeting my parents so Miduchi is coming along as well. Also, Gwine is accompanying us.

After that is one more, Im having Angela accompany us to take care of everyday tasks.

Putting aside Miduchi and Angela, when I said I would be returning along with Gwine, its only obvious theres someone who butt into the conversation.

Eh~ if youre bringing Gwine along then bring me as well.

Eh~ I mean, isnt it unfair for just Gwine. Bel, dont you really want to go along too?

..Yeah, thats right.

Its necessary for someone to properly look after them. Then when it comes to that you know, think about whos staying behind.

Toris has recently started to use his head but if its just Bel acting as advisor to him shes still got a ways to go. Someone needs to lend them their wisdom.

Basutoral is still a newlywed and Zulu is my head slave. Theres no way for them to move.

Listen well, youre the one whos been together with me for the longest. While Im not around, out of everyone who in the world do you think it is that I can trust to leave things to the most? Are you going to make me say everything?

EhYeah..If thats how it is then..me..I guess?

A ha ha..I still wasnt thinking enough about it

Im saved shes as easy as usual.

Everyone who heard it was looking at the lone idiot get roused up with lukewarm eyes.

Also its only obvious but along with my returning home, exploring the 8th floor is put on hold. Everyone who remains will be looking after the {Butchers} and {Exterminators} but as long as they dont do anything unreasonable since a lot of them were originally veterans it should be fine. Rather than that, by the time I return they might have gained the ticket to go to an even lower floor. Zenom said, Leave it to us, also their abilities were originally high. By the time you return well show you can we can pull them up to the 5th floor. while smiling.

There shouldnt be any problem with leaving the {Slaughterers} to Toris and Zenom. If its them then even without Miduchi and I they should be fine up to the 7th floor. If they leave some leeway and only go up to the 5th floor ro so while Im not around then there shouldnt be any real problem. As long as they remain completely careful of the powerful enemies that rarely appear and avoid them then they have Gwines map so it should be like riding a big boat.

I gave out some detailed instructions but Toris said, Leave things to me., just in case I also gave 50,000,000 Z in cash to Zenom. And then, each of us got on our war horses to be included in the caravan that sister-in-law Shani-san was commanding. Because of problems with their physique, Gwine was riding with me and Angela was riding with Miduchi, also in part to act as horse riding training for each of us.

Putting aside Gwine whos gone to play in the capital and made up excuses to ride my horse under the guise of horse riding training all the time, Angela said, For a mere slave to ride a horse.. and was showing restraint but Ive heard that even the fourth knight group has combat slaves that ride horses and act as commanders. Even if combat is impossible at least become able to ride it while it walks.

We quickly finished up the deliveries in the capital and I told Rozural and the others that I would be gone for about 2.5 months returning to Bakuddo for a bit this time. I also told them that if any problems occur during that time to report it to Toris or Zenom, additionally since its about that time I told them to start organizing their belongings.

Its almost been about two years since they came to the capital. The next time theres deliveries another squire family should come to Rombertia to switch with them. Going off of the period it should probably be around summer. Since theres also the matter of teaching them their jobs, we should look at the change taking around 1-2 weeks in time.

Theres also the amount of furniture thats increased in the capital so its necessary for them to at least organize it so it can fit into two carts. Even when they go to return to Bakuddo Im sure that they wont return with a completely empty load. Theyll probably do business in Keel and Doritto, so they should normally be stocking up for the sake of that.

In order to thank the Saguretto Company of Doritto for coming to Bakuddo every month at a fixed time to sell us daily necessities we also bring back unusual goods(Its generally mirrors that dont reflect very well, small bottles with perfume, expensive accessories, or cloth dyed a beautiful color. Depending the case they carry magic stones for other companies as well) from the city and thats an important job. Of course its not for a free.

The journey to Bakuddo was advancing smoothly. We followed along the coast from Baldukk towards the Southwest direction about 100 km over 3 days and arrived at a location that Gwine didnt know about. Starting from here the amount she was talking decreased and she was often looking restlessly around the surroundings. I guess a map of the areas along the road are properly being carved into her memory.

Along the way, since we didnt do anything like staying several days other than just lodging, in around two weeks we were able to make it to around the mountain road I met Zenom and Ralpha in the past. That time we were staying several days to play in a number of towns here and there along the way, so it took around three weeks from here to Baldukk. I was curious about everything I saw. I was a brat after all. Though I guess thats still the case now huh?

Just like that another week passed and we entered Viscount Penlaids territory as we left the royal territory. We entered a random inn in Karumu the capital of the Viscounts territory and everyone ate dinner together. Since the restaurant the four of us entered was a bit packed we all ended up eating at a table a bit away from everyone from Bakuddo.

Angela was quietly eating her food without joining the conversation but since were all brats, not to mention excluding me theyre women, I guess she was being cautious someone might try to pick a fight with us as she scanned the surroundings. Even though its fine for her not to be that highly strung..Even though she was given detailed instructions its quite hoesnt of her. With that loyal dog on our side we were,

Come to think of it, it wouldnt be strange for there to be a reincarnated person around here right.

Right~ Mary-san, was it? If their house is a business like hers and its going well theres not much need for them to move around after all..If that sort of thing hadnt happened then even I think I would be a peddler around now.

Thinking like that and Toris-san had things quite difficult right..

The skill of their escorts must have been good as well. However, it seems they werent able to kill the orks that attacked them.

Even though they were able to do a reasonable amount of damage, since the attacking side retreated before taking any damage they must have a considerably careful and intelligent leader. Different from Baldukk dungeon, I guess that means that the orks wandering the border of Viscount Yoraizus territory are quite something.

It seems a bit of that conversation entered Gwines ears as she lowered her eyes and bit her lip.

The fact that they werent trying to suck up to me is proof that discipline is properly being maintained. Being devoted to your duties is a good thing and Marquis Webdos Territory with a knight group like that is a good territory. No, thats being a poor loser. In the first place theres no benefit to them trying to earn points with me.

It cant be helped. It should be fine if we meet them on our way back from Bakuddo. I thought about showing my face in Marys house at Binsils restaurant but stopped. Its fine on our way back.

We returned to Binsu Manor and Miduchi handed me a knife with an expression like she had determined her resolve.

Erase the scars on my forehead and cheek.

Is that fine? The chances of it not healing are higher..

The scar on Miduchis face is one from quite a bit in the past, she suffered it when she was still a child. She said that the injury was serious and even {Cure All} couldnt completely heal it. That is~ Im sure. If you dont use healing spells soon after you suffer injuries sometimes the scars remain. Even teacher Mila said the scar itself has become the normal state for the body already so even if you try gouging out the wound and using the spell {Regenerate} theres not much hope for it to cleanly heal back over. Even if the new wound heals right away, she said the old scar will end up being regenerated together with it.

If it wont be fixed then going to the trouble of suffering such pain will just end in a loss, in the first place its not so easy to gather the courage to gouge out your face. Certainly scars on the face are a point thats said to be unattractive and it can be thought that its become a complex for Miduchi. I can understand her feelings of wanting to heal them.

Yeah..But, I feel like if I dont test it out now then Ill never be able to gather my courage for the rest of my lifeAs expected I cant gather the courage to gouge my face out on my own so Id like you to do it for me.

In order to not get them dirty she took off the clothes on her upper body and sat down on a chair as I looked into Miduchis eyes. It seems her intention is strong.

YouBut, if thats what you want then Ill do it.

Just in case I thought and gouged out my left arm. Then quickly used the spell {Regenerate}..since I havent practiced it very much it took close to 1 minute. No, even like this I practiced it around 50 times. Along with the activation of the spell the flesh from the wound on my left arm swelled up as we watched and returned to completely clean skin. Though its dirty with blood.

Oh~ ouch. I immediately used {Cure All} on myself consecutively for the sake of stopping the pain.

Seeing my left arm Miduchi smiled just a bit and nodded.
