CH 358

It’s been awhile since I went to the Papeck Company personally. Recently, product delivery were left entirely to Laeva.

「Huh? Did the store get bigger?」

I shouldn’t have forgotten where the Papeck Company was located, but it feels like the building became large and extravagant.

It has a store sign that says 「Papeck Company」 so this is definitely it.

It was originally a large company so its building was large even in Volton, but……

When I entered the building, an employee seemed to have recognized my face and went to the head clerk Thomas-san.

「My, my, Iruma-dono, it has been a long time.」

「Sorry for not keeping in contact, Thomas-san.」

「Come now, this way please. Papeck should also be coming back soon.」

Thomas-san led me into the reception room, and there, instead of the room I came to previously, it was one or two ranks more extravagant.

「I will bring some tea right away, please wait.」

「Ah, please don’t worry about it.」

After a bit of waiting, Papeck-san entered the room.

「My apologies for the wait. Takumi-sama, It is great to see you.」

「Long time no see, Papeck-san. Likewise, I’ve been so busy I haven’t been able to come here personally.」

We exchanged greetings and moved onto the main agenda for today.

「Today, I brought an invitation to Sophia’s, Maria’s, Marnie’s, and my wedding.」

「Ohh! It is finally happening! I had been so worried it hadn’t happened yet.」

「Congratulations, Iruma-sama.」

Papeck-san and Thomas-san gave their blessings.

When I handed Papeck-san the invitations, Papeck-san immediately verified its contents.

「Let’s see, let’s see. Hou, so the ceremony will be held in the Sanctuary church. Thomas and I, I see. Of course, we would gladly attend.」

「……minimal escorts, so we may as well send a nominated request to the 『Lion’s Fang』?」

Thomas-san stated as such upon being handed and reading the invitation. He must have known that the Lion’s Fang members would also be invited.

「Ohh, that is perfect. I have heard that Takumi-sama and the Lion’s Fang have accepted several requests together. If I remember correctly, we were together from Bohd Village to Volton as well.」

「Yes, I had been in the care of Heath-san and the others. After this, I was intending to go give invitations to the Adventurer Guild’s Barack-san and Hans-san, while also entrusting the invitations for the Lion’s Fang with them.」

I met the three members of the adventurer party 『Lion’s Fang』, Heath-san, Lyle-san, and Bogah-san at Bohd Village and travelled with them to Volton, then afterwards, we went Treant hunting and even dungeon diving so I had been in their care. They were the first adventurers I encountered upon coming into this world.

「Perfect, then we shall head to the Sanctuary together with the Lion’s Fang.」

「Thank you very much. I made a gate to the east of the Sanctuary. There are accommodations for the exclusive use of invitees if you enter there, so please check in until a day before the ceremony.」

I told them it was alright to arrive earlier and stay and relax, and then left the Papeck Company.

While walking from the Papeck Company to the Adventurers Guild, I realized that it has been a while since I walked through Volton City.

Ever since the the Divine Empire of Sydnia commissioned the assassination through a dark guild and attacked me downtown in Volton, Sophia and the girls had stopped me from walking there for a while, but recently, I have had no reason to come here but to teleport to the Volton mansion.

As I walked while enjoying the cityscape of Volton for the first time in a long while, I arrived at the unchanging building of the Adventurers Guild.

When I stepped inside, reasonably because it is on the off hours, the Guild was deserted. It was then that someone called me.

「Takumi-kun! Isn’t that you, Takumi-kun!? It’s been a while. You’re alone? How rare you’re not together with Sophia-san.」

「Hans-san, it’s been so long. Everyone’s busy today so I’m alone. Anyway, is Barack-san here?」

「I’ll lead you there. Follow me.」

I followed after Hans-san as we headed to the Guild Master’s room.

Kon kon

「Guild Master, Takumi-kun had come.」

『Ou! Come in!』

Hans-san knocked on the door and called out to the person inside, and we could hear Barack-san’s voice from inside.

「Okay, this way.」

「Yes.」

When I entered the Guild Master’s room, Barack-san was covered by documents like usual.

「Ou, it’s rare for you to come visit me yourself, Takumi. It doesn’t seem like trouble. Well, sit.」

「Yes. Ah, Hans-san please listen to this as well.」

「Me too?」

The three of us sat on the sofa for guests, then I handed them the invitations.

「On this occasion, Sophia, Maria, Marnie, and I are going to have a wedding ceremony. As such, we would like it if Barack-san and Hans-san could attend.」

I told them the schedule of the ceremony and talked about the lodging for invitees.

「Of course we’ll attend.」

「He’s right. We will definitely have to adjust GM’s schedule, but that’s fine. That means, GM, please settle the official documents.」

「Wha!? You aren’t saying all of them, are you?」

「No, all of it.」

Being told so, Barack-san had a faraway look at the mountain of official documents piled up.

I handed the invitations for the Lion’s Fang to Hans-san, as well as request the delivery of the invitations to Valkyra Kingdom, Lomaria Kingdom, and Yggurle Kingdom by way of the guild.

「……it can’t be helped, I’ll finish up the documents in a jiffy.」

「Ok, we’ll work on making some spare time, so let’s meet in the Sanctuary.」

「Yes, I’ll be waiting for you.」

Having finished my errands for the Adventurers Guild, I teleported from the mansion to the Sanctuary for the wedding preparations.
