I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~
Episode 64: I Have The Right To Choose My Neck
I delivered all the salt the next day at noon. It was a hassle to wait for the barrels to gather, so I shredded the barrels out of the rocks and stuffed them with salt just like the salt stores and delivered them in advance. I don't want to wait for the Kansai people.
"What is this white salt...?
Imelda is surprised to see the salt in the stone jar. Did that taste bad? As far as I can taste it, it was usually salty. Because the garlic is also intertwined, there was a slightly mellow tempura salt.
Imelda puts the salt in the stone jar on her palm and licks it with her tongue tip.
"It's slightly sweet but not cluttery... it's quite a fine salt. The skin texture is also fairly fine. What the hell am I supposed to do with this salt...?
"Really. The salt we made in our village is totally different. Sounds like snow to me. Compared to this, Senna's salt is muddy.
Kikka is also surprised. Is it that weird? As far as I'm concerned, it's a familiar salt.
"Is there a problem? Request failed?"
First request failed? If so, it is a little dent. I did a lot of hard work this time. What did I do wrong?
"No... the quantity and quality are fine. I was just surprised because the quality was considerably higher than expected.
"Oh, this is so fine.
"Hmm. Honestly, I've never seen so much salt. It must be like the salt to the royal family I hear rumors about.
Well, that's about it. I just evaporated the sea water.
Kikka told me that the world's salt is dominated by algal salt. Algae salt is made by soaking the seaweed in seawater and drying it, and simmering the seaweed with increased salt concentration. Because of the way it is made, the seaweed flavor and color will definitely come on. Then you can't be surprised by my salt.
And this stone clasp and lid. I've never seen a stone jar as shaped as this. Nice rubbing of the lid. This is all you're gonna get for sale.
I made a template with planar magic and cut it to match it. Uniform standards, basics of mass production. Sharpening is also flat magic, and it doesn't take 10 seconds per piece.
"Hmm. But this time, it's okay if the stone is included in the request.
"Really!? That's helpful. There seems to be a lot of use for reuse.
Even if it is returned, it will be difficult to leave it there. The garden is buried in a jar. The empty salt reservoir was in the way, so it is now sunk in the garden. You can pull it up if you need it again.
◇
Having received five large pieces of gold for completing the requisition process and rewards, I decided to carry out the plan that I had always been looking for.
It's the 'Drink Milk in an Alliance Tavern' plan.
◇
"Hyi! Neck hunting rat!?
A bartender man suddenly ran away. The adventurers who were in the tunnel stood up together and ran back to the wall. What is it all about?
"Hmm, why do neck hunting rats come to the tavern! I thought you weren't coming here because you were a kid!?
"Idiot, speak up! Musco (...) 's head will be hunted!
What the hell!? I don't need a turtle neck like that!
I couldn't help but scream at the conversation I heard. Looks like I'm pretty scared.
"Ah, um... sorry about earlier. What can I get you?
The escaped grand man came back surprised and asked for his order. I am worried about the inner crotch with my back pulled strangely. Hunting.
Dandy's beard and stroked head ruined everything.
"... milk.
I really wanted to say bourbon, but I stopped because it was really going to come out at this rate. I'm a boy, so let's drink milk together.
No, I wonder what bourbon is in the first place. There are only three or four pottery bottles lined up behind the bartender. It says "potato" and "wheat" for each type. Isn't it just a simple fermented liquor?
"I'm sorry, but we don't deal in milk here...
"What, you don't have any milk?
"Hyi!? Sorry, I'm sorry!!
The bartender apologized and ran away like a rabbit from behind. Fast. If there's nothing else, I'd like another soft drink. You're unusually scared, me.
"What's with that attitude?!
"I don't think so. Not as a businessman.
Christella and the others seem to be on their minds. I certainly don't have that attitude. No... yes, what the hell is going on?
"Ahahah, you hated me, Beat.
That's what Anna called me. Good, there was a decent person to talk to.
"Anna-san. Did I do something? Why are you so scared?
"Nothing wrong with you. We're just freaking out more than we need.
"... why?
"Whatever it is, it's decided.
When I asked, Anna answered me with a sense of surprise.
First, the Goblins were destroyed the day they arrived in the city. It seems to have had a pretty strong impact on the city's adventurers.
I almost destroyed the herd of monsters that we had to protect ourselves. The adventurers of this city could understand that it could not be done by chance. It's done.
But that would still be enough to call it the "Strong Adventurer." Some people would have been convinced that Dantes's secret child was the Whirlwind.
Only a few days later, we destroyed the bandits. There was nothing wrong with it, but it seemed bad that all the captured bandits had been rendered irresistible as men. In a way, it's worse than being killed. Because it is done by one person without exception, there is nothing but fear for the same man.
"A cruel and brutal child, not only strong, but also unforgiving to those facing his teeth," he said.
What, that's terrible.
And it's Big Joe the Waste. It seems that the living legend that has afflicted the city for so many years was defeated by only one person, and it was also intact, in one hand, so it was no longer the object of fear through respect and fear. The fact that Joe's head was dropped, as the neck hunting mouse's nickname suggests, was also applauded. If you say so, it's turned into a living legend instead of Joe. You're a sneaky god.
A very powerful, ruthless and whimsical child. They say that's what I think of this city now. It's too bad, but I don't understand this reaction either. Looks like a hegemon at the end of a century. Leaving a young child to die, "No regrets! That self chew who finished saying '. I certainly don't want to get close.
"Well, that's why. There's nothing we can do right away, we'll have to wait a while.
"Hmm... I'm not convinced, but I'm convinced. Thank you, Anna.
I understand. Certainly, it seems that this can only be solved in time.
Looking at the back, Christella and Kikka were convinced and nodded suddenly. Luca is the only one with Nico as usual. And then, Woo-chan looks up at me at my feet.
Heals a rough heart. I'm really glad you're here.
"We know you. I'm always here to help, and I'd be glad to help. You can count on me anytime except in battle.
That said, Anna walked to the reception counter, waving her hand behind her. As always, it feels refreshing and good. I'm a neighborhood sister.
It's time to drink milk again. Let's come back when it's almost cold.

"... I want you to teach me how to study.
Daisy learned to manipulate magic.
Returning to the museum, we resumed training in magic manipulation that could not be done by bringing in salt. I'd like to request an escort as soon as possible, or go deeper into the forest.
Soon Daisy recognized her magic cache and succeeded in manipulating it even though it was awkward. Quite a pace. Besides Christella, who used magic from the beginning, and her real mother and father, it's probably the fastest.
So, when I heard what I was promised as a reward, it was the words that came back.
"Study? You want to go to school?
When asked, Daisy shook the pull and neck sideways.
"... I asked the chief. Younger than school teachers know better. Young is good.
"Heh? Really?
Ask Christella next door. Sure, I talked a lot during my stay in the village and while we were traveling together.
"That's right! Why the plants grow, why it rains, why things fall down. I couldn't even tell you that at King's Landing School! When I heard about the food chain, I had a goosebump! I could feel the will of a great god who lives in this world!
Well, I don't know what God wants. At best, all I told Christella was junior high school. When you are treated with knowledge, you will know the level of education in this country. Sure, I might as well teach you than go to school.
"... I can't write or calculate. But I want to help younger people.
Oh, my goodness! I wonder if there's a guy like this who can say, "I want to help you." No, he's not here! I'll tell you this later!
"Okay. If you don't mind, I'll tell you during work. [M]
"... thank you, young man.
Daisy, who smiled and thanked her, was very cute. Combined with the thinness of the line, it looks like a lady with a deep window. I was born and raised as a slave. I don't think cuteness has anything to do with being born.
Miyah! Come on! I want you to teach me how to study! You should know exactly how much salt grill you can buy!
"I want to study too. Reading, writing, and calculating were handled by Oton and Okan, but there was nothing else.
That's right. I want to know more too. So, from now on, after training in magic manipulation, why don't you take a moment to have a study group?
Cristala suggests that Argna and Kicca request it. It's not a bad study group.
By the time I win the nobility, everyone will have been freed from slavery, and knowledge will help me become independent afterwards. Don't tell me you can help yourself.
"Okay. Well, let's go tomorrow. After that, the afternoon's combat training will be intense. Is that okay with Daisy?
When I asked, Daisy nodded small. And put your mouth around my ear,
"... it was really nice to be young and alone.
whispered away. Daisy was a little on her face when she left, but I don't think she was 10. It is a secret that I was a little overwhelmed by unconsciousness.
No, it's not a case! I'm seven, too!
