Vol 3 Chapter 54
Part 1
A contagious troublesome nature.
As if theres such a thing!
After being accused for nothing, the next day, we headed to the prosperous Shepherd Karnan Kingdom next.
Just in case, I went back to Earlshyde once at night to check if there was any information of devils invading.
But theres nothing for now.
Even so, its a pain going back and forth every single night
Should I somehow make a wireless communication device?
s.h.i.+n You, are you thinking about enigmatic things again?
Not at all. More than that, Karnan Kingdom is famous for its fabric, right?[TL: Ive translated this incorrectly before, should have been fabric instead of textiles.] (Welp, textiles is also correct. Looks like Ive confused it as tiles.)
Yep, thats right. Especially cloth made from demonized sheep is very popular. Is there something wrong with it?
Nah, this mantle you see, though it has heat adjustment and optical camouflage, I didnt given it heal.
Heal? Ah, is it related to the case in Swedes Kingdom?
Thats right. If the mantle can grant that, it will protect its wearer. But it is for that reason, that we cannot give its granted benefits to someone else.
If this mantle will be given the same auto heal like the uniforms such as the combat uniforms, Sicily would have not suffered so much healing people in Swedes Kingdom. [TL: I guess hes talking about Sicily healing the injured people.]
Because all the humans in this world have magic power, magic tools can still be activated even if you cant use magic. Just like how Elly is using the mantle.
Then Sicily wouldnt have to feel sorry for not being able to treat a severely injured patient, since they can be cured just by activating the mantle granted with auto heal.
If it was just a uniform, we could take out the blazer, however its a combat uniform Sicily had to refrain from there.
Id like to give a new grant to the mantle. But the mantle is full of characters, so I thought I could grant healing to the lining or padding, but I guess not.
Why not buy a new one?
It would be good if I can use demonized spider silk to make the cloth. Or it wont be as good as the mantle or the lining. I have a hard time finding a cloth that can handle as many characters as the mantle.
Is that so.
Thats why after arriving at Karnan Kingdom, I would like to look for materials for clothing that can be used in the new mantle, but is that okay?
Thats fine, isnt it? Karnan Kingdom is famous for its fabric, but they also have diverse fas.h.i.+on. Thats why I also want to look around here and there.
I, I see
Girls shopping Is there such a heart breaking phrase in this world? [TL: Guys usually suffer from this lol.]
When I said that, Im talking about the feeling of exhaustion one gets when accompanying someone shopping
Sorry, but can we borrow Sicily, Olivia, and Elly? Wed like to go around only with the girls this time.
Thats great news! Only the women will go!
That may be good. I was worried for Sicily when Im going to look for the fabric. It looks like its going to be more fun shopping with the other girls. Is that okay with you Sicily?
Its okay. Shopping with everyone will be fun.
Sicily not sensing my inner delight, said its fine.
Mei-chan?
I will also go with the older sisters!
Ill ask you to take care of Mei. I said it yesterday, but its easy for us to get invo
lved in trouble because of s.h.i.+n. Brace yourselves.
Understood!
That harmonized neatly
While being immersed in hopelessness whether this perspective could be overturned, we crossed the border to Karnan Kingdom.
Wah! Its sheep-san (desu)! There are too many of them (desu)!
Crossing the border on foot, we once again flew to the sky, in a vast land full of gra.s.s, we saw a flock of sheep.
Its my first seeing from this viewpoint but its amazing, right?
Ah, a shepherd.
Looks like Rin discovered a macho shepherd. Shes been saying that sicne yesterday.
Indeed he got a great body! He looks strong!
I think hes actually strong. A demonized sheep is more or less cla.s.sified as medium size demon. Unless you can defeat it, you cant become a shepherd.
Seriously? Theyre like soldiers.
Hey is that.
While I was preoccupied by Thors explanation of Karnan Kingdoms shepherd that became as strong as a soldier, Maria noticed something.
And when I turn my attention to that direction
. Its at the moment we talk about the shepherd. As expected, isnt it s.h.i.+ns characteristic to invite trouble?
No! There are others beside me now!
Just as we were talking about gaining the qualifications to become a shepherd a sheep just turned into a demon.
This is not my fault, alright!?
Putting that aside, theres a demon, is it better if we subjugate it?
Or should we wait until the shepherd comes?
Anyway, lets wait for now. If theres no shepherd in the vicinity, well subjugate it.
All right.
I cancelled the floating magic, then everyone came down to the ground.
And when trying to see if there was any shepherd nearby
Do oraaaaaaa!!
A man who was a lump of muscle jumped out from a nearby bush with and brandished a huge axe.
Eh what was that again? The weapon with spear and axe together.
Hm, hmm
Halcyon! [T/N: LOL]
Its halberd.
Uoo! So embarra.s.sing! And I yelled that out very loudly!
While blus.h.i.+ng for mistaking the mans weapon, the man cut off the neck of the demonized sheep and killed it.
He was a man with a muscular body, held a halberd instead of a staff. Truly, this man wearing a robe was different from a normal magician.
Yep, no doubt. That is definitely a shepherd.
Oh! Are you guys travelers? Are you alright?
Ah, yeah. Were alright.
Even though its dangerous. Why are you guys in a place like this?
Thats not it, we saw a sheep turning into a demon, so we thought itd be bad if there was no shepherd and no one subdued it.
Oi oi, thats reckless. I can see youve just recently turned into adults, right? Its still too early for you to hunt demons.
Thats not the case for us. Look.
Just a short while ago, my enemy search magic sensed a sheep on the verge of turning into a demon, and it just now became a demon.
So I cast a wind blade magic towards it.
The demonized sheeps neck was cut off in an instant, and fell down on the spot.
See? Were good, right?
Seeing that scene, shepherd-san was struck dumb
Ahahahaha!
And he suddenly burst into laughter.
Whats with this lad! Arent you strong! And you are a magician!?
Oh, yeah, well.
Shepherd-san seemed to be having fun and was striking my back.
What great power! My back hurts!
I see, I see, but sorry, no matter how much you wanted to bring down the demonized sheep
Ahh, its okay. We did not hunt the sheep because we wanted to.
My bad. Youre not supposed to handle a demonized shepherd, unless your a nationally recognized shepherd with qualifications like us.
Eh, ehh
A shepherd has a national qualification!? Is there such qualification in Karnan Kingdom!
A, anyway we cant just leave the demon, so you dont have to worry about it.
Is that so? My bad. Are you guys going to head to the Kingdom after this?
Yes, why?
Then, if youre there, I recommend you to Shepherds Clothing Store. You guys have clothes and equipment for travelers after all.
Ehh, is that so? Thank you.
What, its nothing to be thankful for. You can secure a demonized sheep without effort. It should be me who is thanking you.
Ahaha, then its about time for us to go.
Ou, I am Garan, if opportunity presents it, lets meet again!
I am s.h.i.+n, and if fate allows it, it shall happen.
Saying so, I shook hands with Garan-san, and left the place.
Nevertheless, I got some good information. Shepherd Clothing Store, ne. Lets go there when we reach the Karnan Kingdom.
At any rate, that was an amazing body!
Yeah, he took it down with one blow, maybe a shepherd is stronger than a normal soldier in this country.
Im talking about a nationally recognized shepherd, perhaps Karnan Kingdoms shepherds might be elites.
From the knowledge of my previous life, a shepherds social status seems low, but it might be different in this country.
After finis.h.i.+ng the encounter with the national shepherd of Karnan Kingdom, we finally reached Karnan Kingdom.
After having a similar exchange to the time in the Dam Kingdom entrance gate, we got an inn in the same way
Amazing! Its so fluffy (desu)!
This is amazing, isnt it? Even when compared to what I use in the house, the quant.i.ty of the wool is much more?
Like last time, we got a two big rooms for eight people, and when we gathered in one of them, Mei-chan dived into the bed, said so, while Elly who saw the amount of wool used on the bed, muttered so.
Theres more wool on the bed here than used by the royal family and the duke. Indeed the number of sheep is many times larger than the human population.
Come to think of it s.h.i.+n-kuns house does not use any wool on your bed, right?
Whats this Sicily. Youve already got to know s.h.i.+ns bedding in his house?
Eh? Ah! Thats not it! Its grandmother! Its when grandmother offered me to go to her room!
What the, and here I was sure you already knew the comfort of s.h.i.+ns bedding in his house.
Mo, mou! Maria!
Sicily and Maria are playing around, but grandmas room?
What were you doing in grandmas room?
Grandmother, it seems she hurt her back slightly when training, so she asked for treatment.
Grandma.
Youre already old, so please take care of your health.
So I lied down on the bed and treated it. And at that time, I noticed that the mattress was different. What is that? Grandmother also said she does not know.
Ah, that. I found that material on a low-repulsive tree skin in the forest. I gathered them and laid it on the bed.
Cork was also the skin of the tree, but apart from that, there was a softer, low-repulsive skin to peel from the tree. I longed for a low-repulsion bed in my previous life, so I made the mattress first.
Low-repulsion? Can you sleep in that?
Its amazing. I tried lying down because I was asked to give it a try but I almost felt asleep.
Really?
What can I say.. It felt like my body was floating or being wrapped.
Tha, that much?
By the way, the bedding on top was really light, but why is it so light?
Eh? Even though s.h.i.+n-kuns house is rich
Theres a reason on why Alice made such a doubt.
This worlds bedding is mainly made of wool: the more it is, the more luxurious it is.
Because its amount was amazingly low, Elly and Mei-chan were surprised.
Then, when the quant.i.ty is larger, the bedding becomes heavy. Light bedding is generally cheap in this world.
Ah, thats because my bedding is not using wool.
I heard that a while ago then what are you using?
Feather
Birds feather.
Everyone is looking at me with dubious face.
In this world, the effectiveness of feathers are still not yet known.
Well, you should try it someday. Youd be surprised.
Is that so? Well, I think Sicily will soon experience it.
Maria!
Leaving the bedding situation of my house aside, we moved towards our true purpose in this country.
The female team went to shop, and I decided to go to the Shephards Clothing Store as told by the shepherd, Garan-san.
Everyones mantle including Guss had already been kept by me.
Since I wanted to process it immediately.
Walford-kun, is it alright to come with you? [T/N: Was going to put c.u.m in there, but that might make you rage so I refrained from doing it lol ? ]
When I was leaving the inn, I was called out by Mark.
Thats alright. Are you also searching for materials, Mark?
Theres that, but Im interested in what material you would choose and what kind of processing is done for it.
As expected of the only son of the workshop, he seemed to be very interested in my manufacturing methods.
And Im the only one left, so can I also join?
Suits yourself. Then, shall we three go?
In the end, it was divided into a male team and female team.
After asking a person in the inn for directions, we quickly found the Shepherd Clothing Store.
I was told that this clothing store is quite famous in Karnan Kingdom.
Theres not many fas.h.i.+onable clothes, but theres clothing necessary for travel, and all the clothes use sheeps wool. Also, as the owner is a national shepherd, the clothes are in an abundant stock.
Its great that I was informed of a good store. The store has exactly what I want.
While on my way to Shepherd Clothing Store, I window-shopped the other stores.
As expected of Karnan Kingdom. There are a lot of clothing stores and fabric stores.
The shop we saw earlier is a specialty store for men, isnt it? There were several clothes I wanted while having a quick look.
Then shall we go back? I also found some nice clothes.
Good, then shall we?
In this way, we made a brief side trip while aiming for the shop.
And the store we arrived at [T/N: Its their real destination, the Shepherd]
Its huge!
This is amazing, isnt it.
Its four story building, isnt it.
Im sorry to say this, but its bigger than the workshop in Marks house. The site area and also the number of floors.
We immediately set foot into the Shepherd Clothing Store.
Welcome.
The stores interior, compared to the store weve gone to earlier, it was different and overflowing with luxury. The clerk-san also give off a refined aura.
Anyway, because the store is vast, finding the things were looking for will be hard. I should ask clerk-san to guide us.
Um, excuse me.
Yes, how may I help you?
I told her my purpose for coming to this store and asked if theres any fabric that fit the requirements.
Will the material be used for the lining of the mantle or padding?
Ah, this is the mantle.
Ill take a look at it.
I gave my mantle to clerk-san to let her look at it, and let her take care of it.
This is its very excellent material
By the way, I granted it with eight characters.
E, eight characters in a mantle!
Because well use the mantle, toughness is a top priority. There are not many that can grant a large number of characters.
Since youre already using an excellent lining.. then Ill only have to increase the padding, but summer is hot, is it not?
Ah, you dont have to worry about that.
Because that mantle, is an effective air conditioner.
I understand. However, theres only wool of a demonized sheep that can grant magic
Thats fine. Can you process this many pieces?
I took out everyones mantle which added up to 13 including Elly and Mei-chans.
Thi, this many?
Its a total of fourteen, right? Can you do it?
I dont mind.. if thats the case then the price
Ill give them a discount.
O, owner!
Owner?
When the store clerk tried to total the materials and processing costs for the clothing, someone from behind spoke.
Ara? Its similar to what I heard a while ago
Ah, as expected, its Garan-san.
Ou, I see you came right away. I welcome you, s.h.i.+n
Youre an acquaintance of the owner?
Ou! This s.h.i.+n is amazing. He killed a demonized sheep with a simple magic shot.
Ma, magic shot!? Are you such a high-ranking magician?
High-ranking you say.. is it not just a sheep at most?
Uhahaha! Youre such a guy after all. It seems like youre unsatisfied with the rank of demonized sheep.
Taking a demonized sheep so lightly..
Eh? Its just a sheep, isnt it? Even if its cla.s.sified as a medium size, its not like its a wild boar or a wolf.
While I was thinking about it, I was pulled on the sleeve by Mark.
In Walford-kuns case, it might be just a demon sheep at most, but generally, a medium sized demon is an object of considerable threat.
Well because recently were taking on targets like a tiger or a lion, my sense is also getting slightly strange
Ou, whats wrong?
No, its nothing!
Thats so, I guess if such a high-ranking magician were to have an equipment manufactured at my place, our stores prestige will also go up. Besides, youve also hunted the sheep.
Your shop eh.
So, the national shepherd that owns the shop is Garan-san.
I thanked you for having hunted the sheep, it may be little, but I thought of reducing the price and introducing you to a store.
And so you introduced your own shop? I was lucky.
Part 2
Ill thank you for that then. I am saved since theres a lot of options.
Ou, then the material and processing costs how about this much?
O, owner! Thats mostly just the production cost! And theres also the processing costs..*
Clerk-san made a fuss and shut off Garan-san.
You just be silent. Then, how about this?
The clerk-san who a while ago was running wild became exhausted.
Ar, are you okay?

Thi, this is my request. but are you sure? Wont you barely have any profit?
