A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 1354: In a certain East Town after lunch. 6 (Let me cure you forcefully. )
in a private room behind the Adventurers' Union.
Takeo and Ignoto are sitting face-to-face across the desk.
"This is 200 gold coins.
I also keep 15 gold coins for gratuities.
Apologize to the directors of the orphanage.
There was a gold coin on the desk that I had unloaded earlier at the reception downstairs.
"Yeah.
... do you want to count for now... "
Takeo begins to count the numbers.
"Just right.
Okay, take this one.
Place the earlier vial next to the gold coin in front of the ignotto.
"Ah... wait a minute, please.
There's a brilliant letter that increases the likelihood... erm... this was it.
Is it a good idea to write on your back?
I'll write.
Takeo says as he looks at the note.
"... you don't seem to have the right to veto.
Good, I'll do what you say.
"Yeah."
and Takeo turns behind Ignoto, turning his clothes and writing a rectangle with a quick-drying paint on his back and "Fukushi" vertically on the inside.
Mia and Pana are showing their faces out of Takeo's chest pocket, but they say nothing.
"I wrote it.
Well... that's amazing, it's already dry.
I'm holding this letter down, so have a drink.
Takeo adds his hand.
Keep the distance to touch if the tibipana stretches.
Ignoto tries to lift the vial but his fingertips are trembling without force.
Takeo watches the situation in silence.
"I'm sorry... but I need your help.
Ignoto gives up lifting the vial from his desk and tells Takeo and the others.
When Beinon sees Takeo and Takeo nods, Beinon lifts the vial and takes it to Ignoto's mouth.
"I'll assist you... but it's a good idea to drink this hand drink at once.
You don't have to drink it in several portions and it doesn't work.
... do it!
"Ha!"
When Baynon picks Ignoto's nose with one hand and pulls it back while placing the vial on Ignoto's mouth, and puts the contents of the vial while letting him open his mouth, he releases his nose and drops the vial on the spot, blocking his mouth with both hands.
"Don't make me throw up until I swallow it!
"Copy that!"
"Huh! Huh!! Guh!?"
Ignoto tries to shake his head in tears due to an unusual situation and the stimulus in the vial's contents, but Baynon is stopping him.
"Drink! You can't make me throw up!
You want to move your body! You want to cure me! Drink!
"Gu!... Huh!!
Pana gently crawls her hand on Ignoto's back for care when she makes sure Ignoto's throat moves.
Baynon leaves his hand.
"Nah! What are you...?
Ignoto can swing Baynon back with his right hand. He stiffens with his arm raised.
"... you didn't seem to have any efficacy issues.
Any movement problems?
Takeo asks while sitting in front of Ignoto.
Beinon also stands behind Takeo.
"Ah... oh... move... move! Phew... ugh..."
Ignoto checks as he turns his arms and hips and begins to cry.
Takeo pours 215 gold coins on his desk into his backpack without saying anything.
Ignoto faces up with sound.
"Oh, my body moved. It's not safe for us to have gold in front of you, so I recovered it.
Oh, by the way, this is a big bag of magic equipment, so you can't take it out.
"... no, thanks for healing my body alone.
This is 200 gold coins... Hmm.
"It's 400 sheets, and then I asked for 200.
Well... what do you do?
"The transport industry is out of business now.
Those who have no credibility cannot be entrusted with the transport of good slaves. I'm gonna do it again from scratch now... a little bit.
Then I will go to the United States of Willip and do your request while I travel.
"Really... I have about 535 gold coins in my hand... well if I don't make it a luxurious journey I can do anything about it.
Takeo talks with a nod.
"If you go over there, you'll have a job to do.
I registered as an adventurer, and I'll spend a lot of time there.
"... As I said earlier if you gave me this vial, I was a relaxed traveler in the Drawless country of the Willip Union, but I got it when my men took care of me.
"The price... sounds expensive.
"Care and vials combined for dinner and 3 gold coins.
"Ha!?
Ignoto is taken aback.
"No... thanks for buying it expensive.
Takeo answers with a full smile.
"... that's why you didn't even hoist the price..."
Ignoto disappoints.
"Business buys cheap and sells expensive... wouldn't it?
"Exactly.
... that the cost is the price... "
"Are you indifferent to gold or do you have (...) in the first place?
"Don't be.
Do you have any other features?
"What I saw was an old, small woman, wearing a hood, but a slightly visible face had a neat face.
However, it also looks like the skin texture on the arms and wrists I saw when caring for my men was young.
Well, you're the one who poms vials in this class in the first place... "
"You mean you can't even guess what that looks like?
"The only thing I can say for sure is, 'I take care of myself to make a small amount of money for my journey'.
Oh, maybe he's making recovery potions and selling them... "
"Put this vial in the process... but when you put it on the market, your neighborhood will be in danger... can you say that for sure?
Travelers, care, potions... well, for now, I think I'll go back to the Demuro country and cross over there.
"Really... from here it will be via the Demon Kingdom, won't it?
"Ahhh... yeah, I have a transboundary permit for the shipping industry, so it won't be a problem.
Ignoto checks his luggage.
"If you are able to obtain a vial, please send it to John Doe, Attention, Office of Adventurers Union, East Town, Count Godwin Territory, Kingdom of Azpur.
I'll arrange for it to be transferred from there.
"... Attention... John Doe...
Okay, let's do that.
What about the purchase price?
"For 150 pieces of gold.
We both know the cost.
Let's say this amount as a reward for success, by the way I am willing to sell for about 400 gold coins.
You're selling to the point where your life isn't targeted at best.
And if you found it, send me at least 2 (...).
So I didn't borrow it.
"Okay.
Then I'll let you go.
"Yeah, are we going across the border to the Demuro country for now?
Well, I'm waiting for temperament.
"Oh, do that.
Bye. "
Ignoto is leaving.
"... Well... Mr. Baynon, please write to me what I'm going to say now.
You can have whatever paper you want.
"Copy that.
What do you do with the address?
"Message addressed to His Majesty the Demon Kingdom, please assume the sender is unknown.
"Got it.
... Go ahead, keep going.
Beinon took out the paper and wrote Takeo's words on the paper.
