Sohow, things got weird.
How did this happen?
Since Akane was coming along, I knew Lulu-chan who was acting as her attendant was also joining as a set. So, it would have been sad if Laeva was left alone to house-sit. Kaede was my familiar, so there was no issue. But…… I wonder why Doganbo-san and Golan-san were discussing the route right in front of my very eyes.
This all began when I asked Doganbo-san and Golan-san about Gnomstoll Kingdom.
This was when we were taking Vanga-san and Martha-san back to Bohd Village.
The topic of transportation ca up there.
「We can’t use the Ouranos, right?」
「I think it would be fine if flown at high altitude.」
「Tsubaki can pull the carriage until Bohd Village in any case. Though I think it would take too much ti if we used the carriage for the entire trip.」
I thought it would be easier if we flew there using the Ouranos, but thinking that it would stand out too much, I asked the others. Sophia said that it would be fine if we fly at high altitudes, while Akane was also disinclined to go on a carriage the entire ti.
「There’s nowhere we can’t go if we teleport to the center of the forr Divine Empire of Sydnia.」
「Takumi-sama, there are many people from other countries entering Sydnia now, so it would be troubleso if we are found out.」
「There’s a lot of us so we would stand out, huh?」
I thought it would be easier if we teleport halfway, but I was stopped by Sophia.
「Besides, it’s not really much of a trip if we teleport, now is it?」
「Well, you’re right……」
It wasn’t a honeymoon if we teleport sneakily just so we wouldn’t stand out. What Akane said was also reasonable. Traveling with pure efficiency in mind wasn’t a trip.
「Moreover, it isn’t a problem moving using the Gates and the Ouranos if it’s the Sanctuary, Demon Continent, and the Sky Island, but when traveling in this continent, we would leave traces no matter what we do. We’d definitely be found out if one day we’re at the Sanctuary, and the next, we’re be in a far off country……」
「So we’d be found out if we take any special travel asures.」
It was a troubleso topic, but I would like to keep teleport magic and the Gate a secret.
Deciding to travel by land, I wondered about the route to Gnomstoll Kingdom and consulted with Doganbo-san and Golan-san.
「Ooh! You’re going to our motherland? Gnomstoll Kingdom is a good country.」
「……umu, that’s just perfect.」
「? Perfect?」
Doganbo-san hadn’t returned to Gnomstoll Kingdom ever since he left, but Golan-san had been in the country until just recently, so he must know about the inner workings of the kingdom. But then he replied with a “just perfect”.
Not knowing what he ant by that, Golan-san smirked and patted on the shoulder.
「Gahahahaha! This is great timing, Takumi! I’ll go with you!」
「Eh!? Why is that?」
Suddenly, I was confused because I didn’t know why Golan-san said he would co with us.
「I’ve been thinking I wanted to go back once and et my wife, children, and grandchildren.」
「Eehh! You have a wife and children!?」
「Of course I do. Don’t lump with the forever alone Doganbo.」
「Golan-aniki, I like being alone. Well, it don’ matter anyhow. Takumi, I’ll go with you too. It’s been a while since I ca back, I wanna et mom and pop.」
「W, well, umm, it’s our honeymoon……」
Even though it’s my honeymoon……
I was surprised that Golan-san left his wife and children to go to the Sanctuary, but Doganbo-san’s parents were alive and well, huh. As expected of Dwarves. Just a long living race thing.
I just thought about it like escaping reality.
Sophia, Maria, and Marnie, who were people in this world with no concept of honeymoons, readily accepted travelling with Doganbo-san and Golan-san, and Akane and the others saying anything about it would be like the pot calling the kettle black.
That being the case, it was decided that Doganbo-san and Golan-san were coming along for the trip.
「By the way, would the alcohol production be fine?」
I asked if it was fine for Golan-san who led the Sanctuary’s alcohol production, and Doganbo-san who worked as a blacksmith for the Sanctuary residents to be gone for a long ti.
「There’s absolutely no problem. It’s Gno-sama and Salamander-sama who are heading the alcohol production. I’m just the leader of the distilled liquor division. The wine division’s leader is the Elf Vaudeville. He’ll sub in for for a while when I’m out.」
「Gno and Salamander, you say……」
I see them much less in comparison to Undine, Sylph and the others…… so they were hanging out in the brewery huh.
「There’s soone else who can do my job for a little while.」
Well, he has a point. Without realizing it, the Dwarves had increased.
What should have been a route consultation turned into an increase of companions for our trip.
This is a honeymoon, right?
