Allrounders!! - Chapter 25: Let's Go on an Adventure! (No Adventuring) - Part 1

Roughly two years later.

I've been working hard on improving the mansion even further with Sword raising the necessary funds for the materials. In addition, I've been brewing liquor and teaching cooking. It reached the point that not just the cook, but even the maids learned from me how to cook. The servants have started to dabble in farm work (mostly in favor of produce related to liquor).

Basically, we all aimed for a house that would be as comfortable for living as possible while regularly talking it over. Nowadays, things have broadly settled down.

"I'd like to finally get back to my real occupation."

Upon my declaration, Sword became puzzled.

"Real occupation?"

"Adventurer."

"Haaah?"

He really stressed the "What's this girl talkin' 'bout all of a sudden?" to the limit.

"At this point you've got no need to be an adventurer anymore, have you? If you joined up with our cookin' team, rented out some place, and opened a restaurant, it'd likely boast of such a popularity that even nobles would swarm to it like bees to honey, no? The cookin' team would compensate for the lack of wages with that as well. Besides, if you started sellin' the magic tools of this house to noble mansions, you'd make a killin' without so much as liftin' a finger, right? I mean, even royalty doesn't live in a comfortable place like this."

He started to gradually get riled up.

"Why does water come out if you twist this knob!? Why does water stream in the toilet, making the waste vanish somewhere!? Just what the hell is this magic tool that allows you to regulate fire!? If you spend your life in suuuuuuch a pleasant and relaxin' place, you'll rot as a human!!" He thundered while letting his spit fly all over.

"But, aren't we just spending money right now? We made up our mind to start selling the liquor we brought with us, but in the end it yielded us no income yet as the selection is still pending. I want to earn some money quickly and without much effort."

It's true that I've still got some of the extortion money over, but that's not the issue here. I want to earn my own money. Even if I were to open a restaurant, I'd first need some funds. Besides, I'm not doing my initial objective of 【Otherworld Sightseeing】.

"...Sword, you're doing adventure-like things like gathering materials and raising funds, aren't you? Up until now I couldn't do the same because of the plethora of things I had to do, but I've finally got some time now. I'd like to go on an adventure with you." I whimpered while sadly casting my eyes down.

In response, he quickly became affectionate, "I guess your right. I did say that I'd teach you, didn't I? Gotcha! Let's go on an adventure!"

Older men are so easy.

"So for that reason we've decided to leave this place for a while. Take care of the rest here, okay? Seein' how you've stuck with us through joyful 'n painful times, I doubt you'd do anythin' bad in this house, but be careful. I've put up a request and hired a party of adventurers as guards. Moreover, Indra mentioned somethin' 'bout a really scary crime prevention magic tool, so I think you guys are goin' to be alright over here."

"In case you get contacted by the guild master, or even when you feel in danger without any prior notice, immediately press this here, and take refuge in the cellar. So that you won't get caught in the interception patterns which are going to deal with the potential crimes I could think of. The cellar has been turned into a 【Shelter】. You'll be safe there as long as the planet itself doesn't blow up."

The maids all at once pressed on Sword.

"By all means, no matter what you might do, please take good care of Lady Indra!"

"Make sure to not take Her Ladyship to any weird places!"

"If you make Her Ladyship cry, we shall haunt you for eternity!"

Somehow I feel like they're saying some really scary things? Is the translation broken again?

"G-Gotcha. It's goin' to be fine. Leave her to me."

I nodded as well, "I developed a tent with a function to fold up on one touch. I've also resolved the toilet issue with magic. Rather than worrying about me, you people need to be careful of yourself. If you run out of money, palm off some liquor to the guild master without any worries. Same applies for the "Wheat Honey," okay?"

""Oka～ay""

Everyone answered somewhat listlessly.

You cannot escape a dire problem without making some sacrifices, right? Stuff like the revised starch syrup, "Wheat Honey," only takes time and effort to concentrate while not requiring any time to ripen.

"Alright, we're off then."

""Please have a safe trip!""

We left our home while being seen off by everyone.

Now then.

"Ryoku, switch to optical camouflage once we leave town."

"Aye sir!"

I haven't spent all my two years doing nothing but improving and maintaining our mansion. Since I got my hands on the omnipotent tool called magic, I really wanted to build a robot with my own hands, at any cost.

At any cost!!

My otherworld self adored the robots who fought flashy battles in space wars, but I gotta say the ultimate robots are those with a soul.

Thus I built my robots even while having to listen to Sword's annoying bickering.
