Today, we were still in the carriage on our way home. I usually thought that not doing anything was nice, but it was actually very uncomfortable. It didn’t matter that I took care of them on our way to O’Neill. Let me cook!
“Ah, I want to go home quickly.”
“Nn. I want to quickly go home.”
Rico and Kuro said that. I also wanted to quickly go home and do blacksmithing. I wanted to reach level 10 of my blacksmithing skill this winter.
Hmm, I also wanted to raise other things… I used [Barrier Magic] to raise the level even now. By the way, I also used it during camping. Thanks to that, I could feel that the level was about to rise. After all, steady efforts were the best shortcut.
“I didn’t see it, but Ren was amazing, right?”
“Huh?”
Eh? What? What is she talking about?
“The defense battles. Maricle and the others fought inside the wall without evacuating, so they saw Ren fighting the giant. When we got back to the orphanage, they were shouting excitedly about Ren’s amazing feat! Ah, I hit them right away to make sure they wouldn’t say Ren’s name, so don’t worry.”
“Ahh…”
Now that she said it, I told Triela and the girls to evacuate inside the wall, but I didn’t know what happened to Maricle and the boys at that time.
“Somehow, you used amazing flame magic… I don’t really understand, but it exploded once it reached the ice block… What kind of magic did you use? The stones were blown by [Arrow] magic, right?”
“The flame is [Wall] magic. I call it [Fire Wall]. The way I shoot the stones is like [Arrow] magic. The explosion… is a secret.”
“Ah, is it your trump card? Something that will be bad if other people know it!”
“Er…”
“You don’t have to say it if it’s hard for you to tell us. Many adventures also keep a trump card from their friends. I also think it’s better to do so.”
Umm, I’m sorry…
Hmm, I think it’s okay to tell them about the Burst Dagger. But teaching them how to forge a magic sword would be impossible.
However, I also didn’t know how to teach them how to make a dagger… I had no choice but to keep silent about this.
“I’m sorry…”
“It’s okay. I’m sorry for asking something hard to say. Umm, can I ask about the flame magic?”
“Sure.”
I didn’t use any unique skill for that, so there’s no problem.
“I heard that the flame magic Ren used produced a fire wall so big that it left the giant nowhere to run, but how did you do that? Because your skill level was high?”
“The skill level also plays a part there, but I also use it with [Magic Effect Amplification].”
“Eh!? That skill could do such a great thing!? If I raise the level, will I be able to do the same thing?”
Oh, Rico who listened silently with interest until now took the bait. But how should I answer this? In my case, my fire magic level was 10, and my MP was high… It’s hard to say that ordinary humans could do the same even if they had talent.
“Hmm… I wonder? You need to have a high skill level, and it’ll be hard without a lot of magic power.”
Besides, I poured over a thousand MP into that Flame Wall. Normal people wouldn’t be able to pull that out.
“I see. In other words, I have to work hard, right? I’ll do my best!”

O-oh. Rico was a very positive child who knew what she should do. I didn’t know if her effort would bear fruit, but nothing would change without effort. Good luck, Rico!
“Oh, and Maricle said that Ren’s hair changed, but did you do that too? I didn’t notice it since you were wearing a hood when you were with us.”
“Well, I used magic and skill for that. Disguise… or something like that.”
“Eh, you can do that!? Ahh, the big black wolves at that time are Ren’s wolves?”
“Yeah.”
Well, we arrived at today’s camp while talking about magic-related things like that. And after preparing the furnace, I had spare time again. Everyone was preparing various things happily, and I was the only outcast… how sad.
With nothing to do, I looked around the campsite absentmindedly. There were carriages and caravans beside us. All the carriages went from the royal capital to O’Neill, and on the contrary, we were the only carriage who went from O’Neill to the royal capital. I want to go back to the royal capital soon…
Thanks to the snow removal tools, my carriage paved a road, so it’s easier to follow us. In the beginning, some people asked about the device when we were camping. But it was too troublesome, so I responded to them appropriately.
Well, merchants would be able to move more easily during the winter if they had the device. And their income would increase if they could peddle in the winter. But I wasn’t sure about the market price of magic tools like this, so I didn’t sell it this time.
If I feel like it, I might register a patent later, but I had no intention of doing so for now. I wasn’t in trouble with money and it was troublesome.
Could I even patent a magic tool in a commercial guild? Hmm…?
I looked at everyone’s camp preparation dazedly. I saw Boman helping with the meal preparation. In fact, Boman had been helping all the meal preparation on the way home.
Looking at how he asked a lot of things and did this and that while being scolded by Arle, it seemed like he hadn’t given up on the stalls. To be honest, it was a bit unexpected.
Arle didn’t teach Boman any recipes I taught her. She told me she would teach him when she could trust Boman to some extent, making sure he wouldn’t tell others too.
Hmm, Boman was Cain’s follower, and I could see him getting ahead of himself once he got praised. He would definitely talk about anything easily. They became proud just from a little praise. But it seems like they kinda changed now?
In addition, Ryuu, the one who improved the most, seemed to understand the importance of information. I often saw him observing various things. Knowledge and information were important. There were many things that one couldn’t know just by asking. So that attitude wasn’t wrong.
He asked us about what he didn’t understand, and he started thinking about whether he said something unnecessary. This was how the idiot kind had changed… Maricle told me that everyone was also surprised when they returned to the orphanage.
At dinner, Maricle suddenly yelled at Cain.
“What are you thinking!?”
“Eh? But that’s definitely easier, right?”
Maricle continued swearing for a while. From what I heard, Cain was thinking about doing something stupid again.
…Apparently, while discussing the purchase of the orphanage’s management rights, Cain intended to negotiate my employment contract directly with the merchant.

Seriously… Why did he think I was sneaking around? I couldn’t deal with him, for real…

After that, Triela and Arle also start scolding him strictly. They explained to him why they didn’t talk about me in the orphanage and why I didn’t enter the town before.
As for me? I glanced at him with disgusted eyes, said a word of sarcasm, then ignored him, keeping him out of my sight.
“I see. I didn’t expect you to sell me to buy the management rights.”
When I said that, Cain finally understood the consequences of what he was trying to do. He turned pale and tried to follow me, but Maricle yelled at him, causing him to sit upright on the ground. He was scolded until it’s time to sleep.
Ah, I used barrier and wind magic to insulate the sound so the surrounding people wouldn’t come near or eavesdrop on us. I have improved!
My [Barrier Magic] became LV5 after defeating the giant.
“Oh, Ren… Um, I…”
The next morning, Cain tried to talk to me, but I completely ignored him. Don’t approach me.
After that, Cain was alone at breakfast. Maricle ignored him, Boman was preoccupied with various things, and Ryuu was looking at Cain with cold eyes like how I looked at him last night.
After we finished breakfast and cleaned up the camp, the carriage started moving at high-speeds today. If we went at this pace, we should be able to reach the royal capital in the evening.
While the carriage was moving, the boys in the coachman’s seat discussed, organized, and shared information about what was good and what was bad. Listening to that, Cain’s shoulders were getting narrower. He’s stupid, so it can’t be helped.
Some trouble occurred when I parked the carriage at noon to prepare a light meal. A monster appeared.
It was a stray, hungry orc. I didn’t use monster repellent when traveling with the carriage.
I didn’t encounter many monsters during winter. And even if I did, they often come in small numbers. On the off chance there were many, I could still handle it, and they were mostly weak because of hunger. Sometimes they turned ferocious too, but it wouldn’t matter as long as I was careful.
Bell had become strong recently, so this was the perfect chance for Bell to gain experience. I had Norn to defend me, and I set a barrier. There’s nothing wrong with my plan.
But I didn’t intend to interfere here. Triela and the others would have to do their best.
They were well equipped and received guidance from the older adventurers at the orphanage. And since they all gained combat experience in the defense battle, I wanted to see how far they could go on their own.
Hmm, well… Anyway, I watched them. Norn also waited with me. I would help them in case of emergency, but they should do their best.
The orc began to act hostile and rushed to them vigorously. But Maricle got in its way. Maricle used his shield well, blocking it completely. That’s amazing, considering the notable difference in their body size.
(This chapter is provided to you by Re:Library)
(Please visit Re:Library to show the translators your appreciation and stop supporting the content thief!)
While Maricle was holding down the orc, Ryuu and Boman deployed from left and right. Maricle added the damage by bashing the orc with his shield, making it stagger. They aimed to take away its arms and legs, taking away its attack power and mobility.
Boman’s weapon was a large club. He really took my joke seriously and made it himself. However, he didn’t need to learn complicated techniques like a sword. As long as he could hit the opponent, he could do a lot of damage, so he liked it a lot.
Maybe he could use a mace or an axe? It would be more tactical to have a striking weapon than have everyone equipping a sword.
Cain took a step back and gave instructions to the three boys, occasionally approaching and striking the orc. His timing and aim were accurate, which annoyed me.
Triela was one step further than Cain. Her weapon was a short spear, so she aimed at the joints of the orc’s arm or the throat, stabbing it then moving away. Good, do it more.
Arle used a sling to shoot stones when the orc raised its arms to attack, distracting it from attacking. Her hit rate was quite high, probably because she was practicing. Her timing of shooting was also accurate.
Rico was in charge of the final blow. She planned to stop it from moving completely, then destroyed its head with a magic arrow.
And Kuro. She lowered her posture and ran around the orc’s feet at a ridiculous speed, slashing its legs and shaving its mobility. Her evasion power was also tremendous, avoiding friendly fire easily. None of the orc’s attacks hit her. To be honest, Kuro alone was enough, right?
Kuro mostly took the orc’s mobility away all by herself. And when it couldn’t use its arms anymore, Rico fired a magic arrow, blowing the upper half of the orc’s head off and ending the battle. The result was they defeated it with no danger.
It delighted everyone that they could defend themselves when they were attacked while collecting herbs. They seemed to be confident in the result. However, they were still worried about the actual battle, so they would make time to practice every day.
Cain was the most pleased with this result, followed by Maricle.
Both of them would be thirteen years old next year, so they could take subjugation requests from the beginning of the year. The rules of the Adventurer’s Guild were pretty vague here.
They could earn more income by taking subjugation requests, so everyone’s expressions were bright.
But safety was the most important, so Maricle said they would do their best while making sure not to get injured. I hope he could properly suppress those idiots.
I didn’t care if Cain got injured or died, but Triela would be burdened if he increased the expenses. If he didn’t take care of himself, he would trouble everyone, so I’ll warn him a bit.
A tsundere? No, I’m not. Stop that, for real.
When I warned him, everyone had a complicated face. It seemed like I looked like I was seriously unwilling to speak to him.
After collecting the orc and having lunch, we continued moving. We entered the royal capital in the evening as scheduled. Naturally, the carriage stopped at a hidden place and we entered the town on foot. During winter, the number of pedestrians decreased, so we could enter faster than usual.

I was staying at Triela’s house today. It took a lot of time to move around this large royal capital. And the gate of the inner wall would be closed after the evening, restricting my movement.
Triela’s house was in the third district, and Arnold’s workshop, which was actually a luxury store, was in the second district. The guards would let me in once I explained the situation, but it would be troublesome. So I took Triela’s offer this time.
On the way, we took the key from the landlord’s house and finally returned home after a few weeks.
The house was slightly dusty, and everyone was disheartened to clean up first.
But that was too troublesome for me. ‘Cleaning’ was a one-shot solution. I cleaned the boy’s room as well, just this time.
They also took care of my dinner, and we took a bath in order after the meal and went to bed quickly. Everyone was tired.
It’s a little early, but good night.
Ahh, I would be back in the blacksmith and finally continue my training… Zzz.
