Chapter 161

161 . Another World Trip 1

“ah, I found that boat!” (Mitsuha)

“ “you found that boat?” “ (the King and his aide)

Their words are overlapping . The match is perfect!

“Y-yes, I recovered an unmanned ship that was drifting offshore” (Mitsuha)

When I transferred it here, the crew had already been evacuated to the rescue ship . Thus, it was unmanned . So it’s not a lie .

“ “……” “ (the King and his aide)

And everywhere they go, the king and his aide were treated as state guests, or rather, [territory guests] . And then we have dinner at the territory mansion .

In order to bring out the unique traits of this world, the dishes are focused on things like horned rabbit steak, orc shogayaki, soy braised anomalocaris, and deep fried hallucigenia .

The king seems to fond of the horned rabbit, I heard he muttered [If we cultured and domesticated this, we could make products out of its meat and horn, and we could export it as our specialty products…] . Come to think about it, I did give a number of horned rabbits…

They tend to attack human, but they have strong fertility . Please don’t let them escape to the wild and disrupting the Earth’s ecosystem .

Since there is only me who can communicate with them, I just kept talking between the three of us .

The king and his aide are good people, but this trip is in the interest of their country, so behind this calm conversation, there’s a fairly intense battle .

“Would you let our country help the reparation of that sailboat? We will dispatch several shipbuilders . The payment can be in the form of gold ingots, jewelries, or samples of rare animals and plants…” (Bureaucrat-san)

“Well, that’s a good idea . It would be difficult for a country with no experience to make such things like ship rigging or sailcloth from scratch” (the King)

A One-two punch from Bureaucrat-san and the King .

“Well, your country doesn’t have the technology to build large sailing boat, does it?” (Mitsuha)

Right, large-scale sailing boats are still being built and operated by countries that can afford to do so . Japan, UK, USA, Russia, Germany, Poland, Mexico, Norway, Netherland, etc . …some of them are owned by local governments such as cities…

In any case, it’s not that the sailing ship technology remains because they’re a developing country . In countries that can’t afford to do so, they put the aging destroyers from World War II to use which they bought at scrap metal prices . …well, most of them are already decommissioned .

Anyway, traditional technology and skilled technicians are needed, and only a country that can afford to build and operate a decent zero-fighting-power sailboat can do so .

In other words, they’re just going to draw several craftsman out from another country .

“…” (Mitsuha)

“ “……” “ (the king and his aide)

“ “ “………” “ “

Well, it’s fine though .

The prime contractor, the subcontractor, and the sub-subcontractor are the structures of the business world . Which is also the necessary system, not that there’s anything wrong with that .

However, I rather to make contract directly with the company that does the practical works than having too many middlemen . My intentions could be caught in the middle and not transmitted to the core, when that happens, it will cause extra obstacles and costs . In addition, they also said [is there any need for agricultural support?], [we can also provide weapons], I bet they’re just want to clear out the stock of old weapons sleeping in their warehouse .

But in this world, such weapons would be useful enough, the latest weapons are expensive and difficult to maintain, I think that proposal is the best choice for this country . At this level of civilization, it’s no wonder that the M1 Garand is better that the M16 .

Well, I avoided various proposals . But I considered some of their proposals, and there are around three offers that seems good . Besides, it’s strictly a deal with our territory, it has nothing to do with the country .

However, it seems that they missed the mark when they know that our salt-making facility is more advanced than they thought . Apparently, they wanted to have a bite around that sector too . Fuhahaha, the salt-making technology of my homeland, Japan, is the best in the world!

Well, there might be more advanced ways, but it has to be a method that is possible with the science and technology level of this world, and capable to meet our needs at the pace that produces sufficient profits, it’s pointless to introduce a method that continuously requires Earth’s technical assistance .

On the second day of another world trip, we will tour the royal capital .

Well, they would complaint if they’re just sightseeing this rural town .

“……Transfer!” (Mitsuha)

After casting the spell which took a while, we arrived at the [General Store Mitsuha]… . No, at the [Mansion of Viscount Yamano] in the royal capital .

The spell is to spread the false information that it takes a little preparation for me to transfer . So that I have more chance to hit the enemy when I was attacked .

…yeah, this kind of precaution is important for my safety .

“This is my residence in the royal capital . Although it also serves as a shop…” (Mitsuha)

We transferred to the counter area at the first floor . The third floor in my private space, and it’s troublesome to release the security system, so I won’t bring them upstairs .

The inside of the store is the same as [a normal grocery store in a rural town on Earth], so I bring them outside without any explanation .

“Ooh…” (the King)

The streets look like European town . But adventurers… no, mercenaries and soldiers are walking around while brining swords, and the butcher’s shop has orc skins hanging on their eaves… no, I saw something similar at Makishi public market in Okinawa . I came to know that the unit of weighing there was [Catty] . Or rather, how much this [Catty] is!?

Anyway, the king and his aide are looking around while saying [Hohoh], as they feel the [Another World Atmosphere] .

No matter how old and weak-looking the king is, he won’t be entangled with the thugs, even if he’s walking around while behaving like a country bumpkin . …because there’s me behind him .

At least, there’s no one who want to pick a fight with me in the royal capital . No, even it’s not in the royal capital, as long as they know me, no one would dare .

And I showed them the famous places of the royal capital, my favorite shops, and so on .

They seem to be enjoying themselves, but sometimes they look at something with a sharp eye . Perhaps they found something that might be beneficial to their country and considering it in their mind . Oh, it’s around noon . I guess it’s soon…

“Ah, there you are!!” (Sabine-chan)

Yeah, she came, Sabine-chan!

At first glance she looks alone, but actually there should be some hidden escorts .

There’s no merit in killing Sabine-chan who has low chance to inherit the throne, so it seems unlikely that anyone would risk incurring the wrath of the King and me . If Sabine-chan was attacked, at most it would be a [Kidnapping], so it’s okay if the escorts are a little further away… I guess? U~n, I don’t quite understand .

Don’t tell me, they used her as bait to lure their adversaries out? I don’t think that King-sama would do something like that . Well, besides, I don’t think anyone would do that if it’s means that they would receive a serious retaliation from me .

…anyway .

“Alright then, let’s get going!” (Mitsuha)

Right, now, we’re going to visit the Royal Palace with Sabine-chan’s guidance . And have them meet with the King of my country while we’re at it .

If they meet the King of my country, that would be a great advantage over other countries on Earth . Although there is no real benefit, but we can elevate their position if we let other countries think that way .

In addition, I want to show the king that the decision to use the right to travel by himself rather than to send scholars or young bureaucrats was not wrong . I’ll say that if the visitors weren’t the king himself, I would never let them have an audience with the king of my country .

And, well, I could escort them to the Royal Palace by myself even if Sabine-chan doesn’t guide us, but, since she wanted to do this… .

Of course, I already made an appointment with my King . As expected, I can’t take a king of another country to the Royal Palace without an appointment .

“This is Sabine, the third princess of our country . She will escort us to the Royal Palace” (Mitsuha)

“Oh I see! It’s an honor to have the opportunity to be escorted by a cute princess…” (the King)

She probably doesn’t know what the king is saying, but Sabine-chan, who has understood the general meaning by reading the infliction of the words and the mood, gave a lovely courtesy to thank the King .

As expected of Sabine-chan . She seems to be a different from the Sabine-chan who always behave like a spoiled child when she entered her [Princess Mode] seriously .

Well, it just means that she put a lot trust in me, I’m a little happy…
