Miniature Garden Chemister

14. Hinami and Ichiru - 2

Oh, wow! Rainbow butterflies!

I see rabbits over there!

Oh, oh! What the hell is that? Ha! Deer? Is it a deer -!!?

"Dear Hinami, it is time to calm down…"

"Ah! Sorry..."

About half an hour rocked by a ride carriage... or so? I had a beautiful view outside the city, lots of animals, and my body moved a lot though I didn't speak to it. Ugh, I'm embarrassed.

This carriage, with two horses pulling, has about three rows of easy seating spaces made of wood. However, the ride is not very comfortable because there are no chairs, etc. Mo is pulled by a carriage and is running at the same speed. Other than that, I was surprised by the quick moves...! I thought the cow would walk slowly, but Mo seems to run very fast.

There's a threesome adventurer party on before me and Ickle sitting at the back of the line. Is the big man who seems strong a swordsman? He carries a big sword on his back. Short hair, burnt skin in the day is a fighting man! It feels like. I'm guessing the protective equipment that's too heavy for me to wear is also growing it. But I'm sleeping. Then, a man in a robe. I wonder if he's a wizard...? I didn't see any weapons and had one book down my waist. Beautiful honey blonde hair with elongated lashes. Nice style, like a foreign model. But I'm still sleeping. The last one was a woman with a bow. Beast man with cat ears, cute peachy hair made into bob cuts. The swinging tail and the occasional moving ears look very soft and my hands are about to reach out. Oh, this one's awake!

"It was such a good view that I got tense!

"… is that right, that was good"

"Yeah. Beautiful scenery, my heart is soothing."

I take a big, deep breath and see the city getting smaller.

I'll be back soon, stay put!!

"I like how you're doing!

"What...?

Unexpectedly, I turn around.

It was my cat-eared sister who was just turning back to see the city. He grinned and spoke to me, "I'm glad it's clear," he said.

"Ah, Yes! It's sunny, so I can see it far away... it's amazing."

"Yeah, yeah. Rain makes me depressed."

I agree with your sister's words, and I nod.

"Mr. Adventurer...?

"Hmm? That's right. Mr. Adventurer aspirations, I presume?

"Ah, I'm an adventurer for once."

If I had told you that, I would have felt Ickle was more surprised than your sister. Speaking of which, he didn't tell you much about me either...! You have to introduce yourself thoroughly when you get home.

"It was. I didn't realize, I'm sorry."

"No. Somehow, that's the number one reason I wanted an ID."

"Ah, I see. That's convenient, because it's easy to get information if you belong to a guild. A lot of people just register."

"What! Really???

Like me, looking for an ID...? So some people seem to register. As far as I don't know much about the guild, I was kind of relieved to have someone for the same purpose.

Nevertheless... after all, is it easy for the Alliance to gather information? I am still oblivious to this world and may want to take a peek at the guild when I go to the city.

"Ahhh! What exactly is an adventurer doing?

"Oh... you don't know much about it. Then I'll tell you!

"Wow! Thank you very much."

"Yeah. The guild is where adventurers like me are based. Those who want to be adventurers register as adventurers in their guild and become adventurers. That way, you can get support and information from your guild. The Alliance is a neutral position in every country in this Letty Threel that does not belong to any country."

"Neutral…?

"That's right. That's why adventurers who sign up for the Alliance don't need the hassle of going to other continents. Present the guild card at the border and the guild will handle it."

Ooh... that's convenient.

I told my sister a lot of things while organizing them with my head so that I wouldn't forget what she told me. The guild thing in this world seemed bigger than I thought.

The Alliance is an organization spread throughout the world (Lettysreel).

It does not belong to any country, and its place of residence is always “neutral”.

There are two conditions for belonging to the Alliance as an Adventurer.

One, that the age meets the age of 10.

Two, that you have no criminal record.

When you are an Adventurer, you can use the guild's facilities.

Request… can be accepted or issued. In addition to requests from guilds, they also include requests from the general public and sometimes from the state. Request from the Alliance is to collect items you need at all times. And the crusade of demons. Public requests seem to vary from escort, collection, or any help.

Buy and sell… Will buy items such as materials dropped by demons right away. Markets vary from region to region, but unlike other shops, there is no material that cannot be purchased.

Study group… there are two things: seating and technology. Only the adventurers to whom they belong can participate in the study groups regularly organized by the Alliance. Seating is a common adventurer's knowledge, type of medicinal herbs, and valuable items. You can tell me about the demonic ecology. Technology teaches adventurers how to fight, and runaway adventurers often receive it.

INFORMATION… The guild gathers a variety of information. It is possible to listen to information on bulletin boards in the guild with sticky paper, as well as various stories from officials. Especially when it comes to the movement of demons, we also know the safety aspects in detail.

I see... I have to rebel in my head and not forget.

But I might be glad that you're holding a study group... maybe I'll join you next time...? I think I can hear you talking about herbs! Yeah, let's do that.

"This is minimal equipment, so besides this, we do a lot of different things by guild, so if you find a new guild, you can try it on your face."

"Yes!"

"And then there's the adventurer! Because this is cracking and free..."

"Freedom?"

"Yeah. Adventurers basically have to do something, because they have no obligation. Like our party, some adventurers fight demons… and some adventurers like magic and don't fight by moving on to research. And... a lot of them are pharmacists."

I knew it was a lot of pharmacists! There are plenty of people like me. You noticed I reacted to the word "pharmacist," and your sister said, "Mr. Pharmacist?" He asked me.

"Ah, for once..."

"Oh well. A pharmacist can be anyone, and a party without a healing magician like us would be tough without healing pills (potions). We're helping."

"A recovery magician?

"Yes. It's a profession that uses healing magic to heal injuries. It's a rare piece of magic, and not many people can use it. So we don't have a healing magician at our party."

I see... that's a rare profession. You're a healing magician… you look better than a pharmacist. I thought there was less demand for healing pills (potions) if they can be cured by magic, but it's a rare job with a small number of people...! You kind of admire this stuff. But then I have to participate in the fight, so I think it might have been a good idea to be a pharmacist. Yeah, I... I'm a chicken.

"Hey, it's time to split up. We're going to the next city like this, but you?

"Oh, we're going down here."

"Oh well. Then goodbye...! Good luck, runaway adventurer."

"Yes! Thank you for sharing everything!

Make sure it stops, me and Ickle get off the carriage. Keep your feet firmly on the ground so you don't lose your balance, make sure. No, it's nothing, I... I'm not the kind of person who falls where there's nothing, is there?

Wave to the carriage opposite us and shout "Thank you" to your sister. Speaking of which, I couldn't talk to the other two. Or... well, were you asleep? I can't help it because it looks like it. Somehow, people I meet, people I meet. It makes me happy with all the good people.

"Let's go, Kahinami-sama."

"Yeah. Good luck with the house!

Walking down the road to the woods, I glance around for a moment. What I'm currently walking on is a meadow. A pleasant breeze is blowing and he gently strokes my cheek.

"Yes! Something unusual, a herb, a flower, if it's on the way, I'll pick it up, so let me know if something happens?

"Yes, I understand."

"... Mmm."

Grunt. Is this, is the way Ikuru talks usually a tribute? Or are you talking to me with respect because it's me? No, it must be me, so it's a tribute, right? I'd like you to talk to me in vegetables if you can... because Ikuru is so thin and handsome, I don't usually feel very uncomfortable with this way of talking either... I don't know.

"Hey, is the way Ickle talks vegan? Or are you talking to me with respect?

"Huh..."

"Ah! I turned away! I knew you were talking in reverence!

The face that was turned away from me to escape my gaze told me the right answer. This has to be a battle again! Of course, it's a gangster battle between me and Ikuru.

This is a great trick that keeps staring until Ikuru stops saluting. My win if Ickle turns a blind eye. Ickle wins if I turn a blind eye. I actually have this, by the way, counter move. His name is also Skill DO GE ZA!

This is the move I was hung up on when my sister and I used to have an untouchable battle breaking out and staring at each other. Having eaten it brilliantly, I gave my sister a TV channel...

……

"……… er."

"……… no."

"... okay, I'll stop saluting you"

"Ok, I won...!

My victory was confirmed in three minutes. Ickle doesn't seem used to staring at each other. No, you don't normally get used to that...

And nevertheless, I wonder if this has somehow gone in a good direction, is it cheap for me? But, well, it's day two and you're good! Let's just say.

Then he walked away having a chat with Ichiru without a scratch. I mean, it's bigger when Ikuru startles me like, "Why can't you go home..." They think I'm lost? Often women don't like to read maps, but I... yes, I didn't like them.

Then I walked a little 10 minutes and saw the forest entrance. The house is just a few minutes away.

"Speaking of which, is the house in the lost forest? Do you know the way?

"What...?

"Huh...?

What...?

I accidentally blink with my tits. Right or right, the location of the house...! I thought we should just let them in the woods for now. Oh, my God. Are you stupid? I...!!

"No, I'm fine. If you go to the Lost Forest, my house is close!

"... Well, if Hinami-san says so. We can handle this forest without magic tools, and let's keep going."

"Yeah. It's okay, let me handle it!

I have a good chance of winning.

Shea's been chased by Hard Wolf from the normal woods to my house. I mean, the calculation is that it's not that far away in distance! Because there's no way you can escape such a long distance while fighting. I think it's pretty close.

We step into the woods and proceed in my order, Ichle Mo. Because it's just a good forest for beginners to train, or a relatively easy path to walk on. In addition to that, he kept the tree branches away so that Ichiru could walk easily, or he was moving on as he soaked the ground. Sorry it's been a hassle for Ickle, but it's very helpful.

"Dear Hinami, forward... because there are rabbits and chickens a little further along. I'm not going to attack you, so I'm going to walk right through it."

"Ooh... rabbit! I keep chickens at home."

"Really? There are many of them in these woods."

But... I don't have rabbits or chickens in my sight...? Didn't Ickle have bad eyesight...? Why do you see...

And when I went about 30 meters, it also seemed to me. Small, with rabbits and chickens.

"... Hey Ickle, why do you see rabbits so far away?

"Oh... it's exploratory magic. I can use wind magic."

"Ehhhhhhhhhh!? Were you!?

"Nothing, that's not so surprising...?

"No, no, no. I didn't know, I'm surprised!

Well, I could use some magic, Ickle. I mean, what about magic in this world? Can we all use it...? Actually, most people can use it, and people who can't use it are rare or something...?

"Is magic not uncommon...?

"Well, most people can use it, right? But there's not that many of them that can be used properly and effectively."

"Heh... you mean if you don't practice, you won't improve?

"That's true."

"That means Ickle is an awesome category!?

"No way. Enough to explore at best. Well, I hope it's convenient."

Oh, my God, there's no such thing as offensive magic. No, it's not that I'm sorry, I just wanted to see it - or if I could use it, it'd be cool - like that.

But that's it, too, Shea, but magic has chants, right? It's good because you don't need the skills I use, but that one is a little embarrassing.

If I was thinking about that, I would walk up to the rabbit and the chicken and go straight past. I'd like to welcome you home, but now that Mo's here, I can't follow you home! I'm sure I'll see you again, so stay put...! and drop off rabbits and chickens. I want to keep a rabbit. 'Cause it's usually cute.

"Ah, one Hard Wolf is on his way"

"Ehhhhhhh!?

"Hey, where did you get that voice..."

As Ickle told me, it's Hard Wolf running toward us from before. Oh, no, no, no, no!

"Ickle, I have to run...!

"Huh? It's okay, 'cause I'll take it down"

"Ha...! Yes, Ichle can fight...! But you look strong!?

I did sign a deal with Ikuru as an escort, but when it was really a fight, I knew I was afraid, and I knocked him out! There's no way I can say -!!!

And I took a step toward Hard Wolf, which Ickle would also be heading toward if I were grating. I twirled the stick in my right hand one spin and poked Hard Wolf up from the bottom. I raise my admiration for its flowing, beautiful behavior.

Flying behind him, Hard Wolf clashed against a tree and vanished as it was… his fangs and fur fell.

"Eh... a blow!?

"'Cause it's a miscellaneous fish, right?

"Pocahon."

I said Pocahontas with my mouth! Ickle, were you so strong? Or is it that werewolf mutton? What is it? I don't know anymore...! But I'm glad you're okay.

I ran over to Ikuru, where I stepped out in front of Mo, and Ikuru called me.

"Stop...! He's here…"

"What...?

Ikuru put out his right hand to stop me and urged me to be quiet.
