Volume 2 - CH 23

City of Dumbler

「I’m getting tired of being surprised…… 」

Natalie says as she drinks tea in our temporary home. If I was in her shoes, I think I’d feel the same way.

「Seems my Dimensional Storage is special……」

「The word special does not begin to describe it……」

I left the dumbfounded Natalie to go and start dinner in the Japanese style kitchen. The three other people relax in the living room.

Everything seems to work the same as in Japan, the water, the electricity, even though I still don’t know how. I convinced myself that this was a different world specification and continued my cooking.

When the meal was prepared, we sat around the dinner table and discussed what we’d do when we leave here.

「I think we should head to Dumbler tomorrow for shopping and then go through the forest to the Empire」

The three of them nodded.

「I want to level up too! I won’t be beat by the little girls」

I had explained the effects of the ring to Natalie and she just couldn’t wait to start using it.

I laughed at her enthusiasm, however, it is important that she levels up quickly to ensure she can stand a chance against the Generate Kingdom.

After our dinner, the four of us took turns taking baths and prepared to sleep.

I showed Natalie her room, which hadn’t been used yet, and she was very pleased with the soft bed and the light, warm duvet.

She was pleased to the extent that she claimed, 「I want to live in this house forever」.

The toilet and shower were a cherry on top for her experience.

There’s certainly no denying that Japanese houses are well thought out, and the environment is comfortable. Nothing is needlessly luxurious but in fact functionally efficient.

I went into my own room and changed clothes for bed, and then I grabbed the necklace crystal and called out Ferris.

「Ferris, do you think you can come out in this house?」

The crystal began to glow and Ferris appeared in front of me.

「Hm. It’s fine. It feels like a mass of magical power and it’s comfortable. But being in the crystal is best」

The next day after a light breakfast early in the morning, I hooked up the carriage to Kokuyou and prepared to leave.

When everyone was outside, I stored the house back into Dimensional Storage.

「No matter how many times I see it, I can’t but feel like that’s outrageous」

The other two nodded at Natalie’s statement, but I chose to ignore them

After they were settled in the carriage, I got on the coachman seat and signaled Kokuyou to leave.

The carriage moved slowly and gradually picked up speed. Travelling down the road at a speed twice that of a normal carriage, we arrived at the city of Dumbler early in the evening.

A little before, I stowed the carriage in Dimensional Storage and we entered the city on foot.

Thanks to the fact that Natalie had also registered with the Adventurer’s Guild when she was in the Empire, the reception process went smoothly.

However, there’s no telling when they’ll be pursued to this city.

After taking lodgings, we gathered in a room and discussed what we will be doing tomorrow.

「We’ll be doing shopping tomorrow, since Natalie and I are the only ones with Dimensional Storage, we will split ourselves into pairs」

Char was the first to raise her hand vigorously.

「Oh, I’ll go with Touya-sama」

「That’s not fair」

Looking at her level now, she can take care of herself from bandits and some soldiers without any problem. But I doubt that will happen in this city.

But with Al in amour, there is less chance that anybody would pick a fight with them.

「Okay, Char you’ll be with me. Al, go with Natalie, and make sure you have everything you need」
