Reincarnation into the Barrier Master
Episode 273: Is that so?
"It is. I am the representative of this North Township. I refused, but they really told me, and I had to..."
With a troubled look on his face, Dorkie approaches the unfamiliar men who have just arrived.
"Excuse me, I said I need to talk to you, but before I do, I'm getting salt. Could you help me?
Dorkie gave them instructions in polite language to bring in the salt that was in the store.
"Hey, I understand. But, sir, these people..."
The men throw their sharp gaze at us. That's right. Stranger men and black rabbits. It's only natural to think it's suspicious.
"These are the ones who divided the salt. And these three are my countrymen. We all have metastasis skills, so we were able to bring in tons of salt, with little effort. Thank you all."
The men's eyes gradually open as they listen to Dorki. And they bowed their heads as they flew backwards.
"Damn...... even though I don't know, I made it easy to be rude. Thank you so much."
"Oh no, you don't have to be afraid. I'm a friend of this Dorkie named Linos."
"Linos? Sure... like the king of Agarta was by that name..."
"Oh, no, the names are just similar, very different from those over there. I'm... just a merchant Linos."
With all that said, I'll give Dorkie and the Chiwans my eye. Even he was dressed in the wet clothes of the kidnapping of the Chancellor's daughter. I want to avoid being confused by revealing my identity to Heta here.
"Oh... yes, it is. They have a lot more salt than this...... He carried salt with my compatriots."
"Heh, thank you. Anyway, if it wasn't for salt, I wouldn't be able to open this Dorkie's husband's shop, and I wouldn't be able to keep my life together... but when it's salt, I'd stop talking about pity. Um... your black rabbit husbands are your Dorkie husbands compatriots... do you want to join them?
"I say CHIWAN. This doke is a facial acquaintance from when he was a young man. Oh, I'm a doctor. And this is Zenhai and Fit. They're the same doctors I am."
"... came the same black rabbit beast as Dorkie's husband ah, still, you know, in the doctor's regiment posse high?
A man who's been talking to us for a while now is opening his mouth with a surprised look on his face. Chiwan looks a little unexpected and returns a response.
"Yes. We are those who carry out medical activities around the Agarta Nation and the Headata Empire. I am its representative."
"You're the... famous..."
"Well, do you know us?
"I'm late for my application. My name is Bente. Just a few heads of this North Township. I was an adventurer. I'm a walker traveling around the world. The black rabbit brother helped me where I was falling down with abdominal pain in the Krumfal of Headata. It was already a pain that I thought I would die, but my brother healed me by the way... I couldn't even thank you enough then, until now I was accidental...... No way, I never thought I'd be able to help you again... What a disgrace..."
"I don't think it's anything serious, do you?
I was gonna put in a follow up, but he got even more frightened. Watching that happen, Dorkie opens her mouth again.
"... Mr. Bente, that's about it. First, shall we bring in the salt? Oh, I'm late for the introduction. You're helping run the North Town with me, Mr. Daemo, Mr. Kahoshi, and Mr. Nango Lee Hay."
The four introduced bow their heads deeply with Bente. All, badass faces, but very courteous, kind of likable.
"Hey, that's easy."
With a single voice of Bente, the salts are carried out one after the other. The X. itself is heavy there, but they are lifting it lightly, taking it in two on its own. The salt was quickly delivered inside the warehouse for our help together.
"With all this, you're going to have it for a few months. Yes, I do. Dorkie's husband, Arashara, after this, touched the other townships' husbands that the salt had arrived."
"Oh, it would help if you did. It's noisy out there, so please be careful."
"Heh, that makes it easier, sir. One thing I'd like to ask you. Yesterday, I heard that Augin was about to get caught..."
Unexpectedly, we look at each other. Dorkie tells us not to worry with her eyes and opens her mouth to them.
"Yeah. Uh... How far do the Bentes know about that?
The five were looking at each other, but eventually, sorry, Bente opens his mouth again.
"Anything, I easily heard there was a catch at Dorkie's husband's shop. I made it easy to ask about it last night, so I was worried about it, so from this morning on, it's up to everyone to ask without disrespect."
"I see that's why you were. Ladies and gentlemen, you would have had a job. I'm sorry. Thank you for your concern."
"No! My husband is apologizing... If you ask, I heard the bad guy got caught right away...... from what I've seen, your husband doesn't seem to be hurt, depending on his reassurance...... I just pinched it in my ear when I asked you earlier, but apparently the bad guy ran away... what a noisy conversation."
... my back is freaking out. Maybe the Dorkie store, or himself, could be in danger.
"And that means a search party will be sent out to capture the killers?
I open my mouth against them in the guise of peace. But the answer returned from Bente was unexpected.
"No. I don't think so."
"Huh? What do you mean?
"Anything, I easily heard that all of Master Augin's escorts were cheap and locked up in the basement of your mansion where they let the bad guys escape. So, the number of chasers is not enough, so you order the townspeople to find that bad guy... I chase him, and it makes me wonder if an official will come to my husband, too. My husband in Hell-eared Uemachi said," I'm sure. "
"... is this Shogetsu from Kami-cho? I see, if you were that one, you wouldn't be wrong. As always, you're fast with information."
"Heh, actually, one of yesterday's things came to my attention from Shogetsu's husband..."
"I see. Thank goodness. We have to thank Master Shogetsu soon."
"It's easy to offer, sir, but as we go around the other five towns, why don't we arrange a meeting? I have already heard that Nancheng and Nishimachi are running out of salt. I don't know if I ever crossed it early..."
"Right...... then"
Dorkie and the five men started some sort of meeting. Apparently, representatives of the other five towns will gather later to distribute the salt I brought in. Well, if this is going to save people in this country, as far as I'm concerned, I'm happy. I just expected my escape to be uncovered, but I never thought I'd be trying to involve the townspeople in a search. Hey, this needs to be taken care of... I heard Dorkie when I was thinking about that.
"Thank you for waiting. Shall we go back to the store?"
For once, in Côte d 'Ivoire and everyone else, let's think about the future. With that in mind, we went back to the Dorkie store right around the corner. And two women stood behind us, like they couldn't wait for us to return. Unconsciously, I couldn't help but notice that...
