chapter 26
26 – What are you doing? I’m not following you soon
When I arrived at the mansion with Rayman, the Lizardman I brought with me caused a commotion in the house.
“Even, the monster you are holding in your hands is…….”
The maids widened their eyes at the first monster they saw.
“Rail! What the hell are you doing outside?”
“Older brother…. You really…….”
The family also couldn’t keep their mouths shut as if they were greatly embarrassed by the different event.
“Is this your first time seeing a lizardman this big? Is he the guy who lived in a place with a lot of mana?”
“My lord. Did you go hunting alone without saying a word?”
Fenia was a reaction to seeing Lizardmen several times, and Aline seemed dissatisfied with hunting Lizardmen except for herself.
With everyone’s eyes fixed on the lizardmen, I showed them the ore in the sack.
“Older brother. What kind of ore is this?”
“This is the first time I have seen an ore that glows blue.”
And then my gaze returns to the blue glowing ore I brought.
But since it is a rare ore, no one recognized it.
No. She knew what this ore was as much as Penia, who had lived for several decades.
“Oh. Is it magic ore? I see Isn’t this Lizardman the monster guarding the magic ore?”
“As expected. The archmage is different.”
“Whoops. You have to be at this level to say that you are a great wizard.”
Fenia took a triumphant pose with her hands on her waist.
Then her father, Euler, approaches Penia and asks carefully.
“I don’t know much because I am ignorant about ores, but is this ore that precious?”
“Of course not. I’ve only heard of it Actually, this is the first time I’ve seen it. The magic ore that contains mana is such a precious ore that the imperial family will sweep it up as soon as it comes to market.”
“Ah, ah. You are saying that our rail brought such ore.”
“Yes. And if you sell the corpse of the Lizardman next to you at the merchant, you’ll get a pretty good price.”
Hearing Fenia’s words, Euler’s eyes turned to me.
And the face of Euler, who thought he had made a mistake again, shook slightly.
I know what that expression is.
It was the expression of a person who was barely holding back the corner of his mouth that was trying to keep going up.
He must have been so crazy, his son subdued a lizardman twice as big as a human, and the archmage brought ore that he hadn’t actually seen.
I did two things that would raise the family’s favor just for one.
That’s also the rail that almost gave up half way out of madness.
Euler couldn’t help but feel good.
After a while. Euler, who completely concealed his expression, gave an order after lightly loosening the jelly.
“Rayman. Sell the Lizardman’s corpse and some magic ores to the guild and come back. Let him say his name is Railby Orland.”
“Yes. All right.”
Rayman nodded briefly.
The reason why Euler only sells a few ores on the market is probably because he also knows that I intend to gift the magic ores to Ellis.
Like that, before Rayman moved back to the market, I stopped him for a moment.
“Rayman. Wait a minute Fenia Cast some healing magic on me and Raymon. I consumed a lot of stamina while fighting the Lizardmen.”
“I-I am fine. Grand Wizard. Restoration magic is enough if only you do it…….”
“It is an order.”
“… Thank you young master.”
As expected. Power is awesome
Seeing us like that, Fenia smiled and cast a recovery spell on us.
Then I felt that the fatigue of exploring the deep cave and fighting the Lizardmen was washed away at once.
“I guess this is a recovery magic….”
It was the first time Raymon received recovery magic, and he opened his eyes wide in admiration.
After recovering, I got up from my seat, took some magic ores from the sack, and walked in front of Rayman.
“Let’s go now.”
“Do you intend to go with me, too?”
“Of course not. I want to keep my promise.”
“Promise…. Are you talking?”
Ramon tilted his head as if he didn’t understand what I was saying.
I pointed to the broken sword at Rayman’s waist.
“Your sword. You said I’d make a new one.”
“…… I’m really fine. Young master.”
Ha. This is really frustrating.
If an adult gives it to you, you can just say thank you and receive it.
Of course Rayman is older than me now, though.
I looked at Rayman, who was at a loss, and opened his mouth.
“Now you know what I’m going to say, right?”
“…… Thank you young master.”
Yes. If it ends neatly like this, isn’t it good for each other?
So we moved to the market before the sun went down.
*
When we arrived at the guild, everyone’s eyes turned to the rail group.
To be precise, the blue ore in Rail’s hand and the lizardman the size of an adult man’s stomach.
As if this was the first time such a case had happened, the guild side seemed quite perplexed and started talking to each other.
I wonder if that little time has passed. A neatly dressed female employee appeared in front of the rail.
“Are you saying you want to sell Lizardmen and Magic Ore to the guild?”
“Yes.”
“Could you possibly know the source of the two? Lizardmen are monsters that can cause great damage to people.”
“They live in a cave in the mountain behind the Bioland estate. It’s quite deep, so don’t worry, it’s not a place where people go.”
“I see. All right. Then, shall these two items be registered in the name of the Violand family?”
“No. Register under my name. It’s because I brought it after subjugating it myself.”
The eyes of the staff and the adventurers sitting at the table and drinking were wide open when they said that they had personally subdued the monsters and found the ore.
Then, it’s not a loud voice, but it starts to whisper in a voice that can be heard.
‘These days, his behavior has improved a lot, but that man subdued the Lizardmen himself?’
‘No way. Is it real I’ve been an adventurer for 10 years, but I’ve never seen a Lizardman that big.’
Raman listened to the voices of the adventurers and watched the reaction of the rail standing next to him.
But he doesn’t pay attention to the voices of adventurers who raise his name.
And waits patiently with folded arms until the employee brings the payment.
As if their voices could not be heard.
“Hey, here is the price of the Lizardman corpse and magic ore.”
“Thank you.”
“If you need anything, please visit the guild next time.”
Then, he took the money in the sack and immediately left the guild.
As usual, it is said that he received Fenia’s recovery magic, but he had to return to the mansion due to mental fatigue.
“What are you doing? Rayman. I’m not coming soon enough.”
However, Rail said he would keep his promise, and moved to the dwarven forge where commoners, other than the mansion, did not dare set foot.
When I entered the smithy, I saw an old dwarf, not a human, hammering the anvil.
“Heh heh. Rail masters from famous marquis families come to our store. It’s something to live for a long time to see.”
“Do you know who I am?”
“Of course not. Is there anyone here who doesn’t know you? As rumored, I lost a lot of weight. So what did you come for?”
“This friend’s sword is broken. Make me a new sword The material is made with this,”
As if meeting an old friend of hers, Rail had a friendly conversation with the dwarf, who spoke very flatteringly to her.
And the dwarf’s small eyes widened when he saw the magic ore that Rail had taken out.
“Isn’t this magic ore? It’s something I’ve never seen before in my long life. hahahaha. I never thought I would see it in a market like this.”
“How is it? Can you make it?”
“Of course not. But magic ore takes quite a long time to smelt, so I guess I’ll have to wait a week.”
“Can’t it be faster?”
“Because I already have pre-orders…….”
After saying that, the dwarf raised his eyes and looked at Rayman.
Rail, who met the gaze of the dwarf, raised the corner of his mouth as if he understood his gaze.
Then I took out a sack of gold coins containing the money I received from the guild and threw it at the dwarves.
“Khehehe. I’ll make it in three days. There kid.”
The dwarf gave off a soft laugh and headed towards Rayman, who was staring blankly at the two of them.
“Are you talking about me?”
“Yes. Do you have the handle of the sword that is said to be broken?”
“Yes. You have.”
Raman immediately handed the handle of the broken sword tucked around his waist to the dwarf.
“It must have been a sword that has been used for quite some time.”
“Yes. This is the sword I received from someone special to me.”
And Rayman looked at the rail standing next to him.
Bocchan, who recognized his swordsmanship talent when he was poor and personally recommended him as an escort.
Thanks to this, he was able to finish his boring life as a miner and enter the guards, and was recognized for his skills and rose to the rank of captain of the guards in a short period of time.
If he hadn’t met Rail B Orland, he would still be digging ore in the mine.
Since his death, Rail’s personality has become quite rough, but Rayman thought that he would return to his old self.
And, as expected, he overcame the pain at the time and Rail returned to his usual form.
In addition, he has grown to the point where he can subdue monsters he himself had failed to subdue by undergoing magic training and physical training as before.
Despite his proud achievements, Rail was not conceited.
Far from blaming himself for not being able to protect his master, he rather encouraged and adjusted the sword.
It was a magic ore that was so rare that even the great wizard Penia could not see it.
It was too much of a reward for a normal escort leader to receive.
However, Rail reacted as usual, as if he didn’t care.
“Then come back in three days.”
“I will create a masterpiece that has never been seen before, so look forward to it. hehehe.”
After a short greeting, Rail left the smithy.
Then he urged, looking at Rayman, who was still standing there blankly.
“What are you doing, I’m not following you quickly.”
Even if everyone in the world turns their backs on Rail, only he won’t turn his back on him.
Even at the cost of his life, he will protect Rail as his master’s sword.
Rayman, who did not dare to think of himself, finished his thoughts by raising the corners of his mouth.
Then he followed the rail that called him.
