Hone To Issho No Isekai Seikatsu

~ Adventurer’s life Day 4 (Thur) Afternoon ~ Comnes Town – Rostam workshop

I found the Rostam workshop, the one I was told that can buy the slime jelly off of me .

Though they call it a workshop, it looks more like a small factory seeing it now .

I looked at the shop for a while until the old man I talked to earlier went inside the building .

He was quite nonchalant in entering another person’s house . He walked to the back of the room, took out a chair and sat on it relaxed .

Oh, maybe he is the owner… Though after a while, a somewhat tired looking black haired woman around her forties came into the room .

“h.e.l.lo, welcome to Rostam . I’m Adrianne, what can I do for you?”

Incidentally, the old man was mumbling something to which Adrianne relayed the message to me .

Seems like he’s a retired carpenter that’s neighbouring this shop, Pietro .

I guess that makes them friendly neighbours .

I wanted to sell the slime jelly right away, but I’ve been told that they don’t accept any anymore unfortunately .

Apparently, she couldn’t recreate the recipe for hardening the slime into cloth, so she stopped stocking up on slimes .

As for the reason why they lost the recipe, last month Adrianne’s husband past away while gathering some slimes in the marshlands .

From the start, the husband usually handles the gathering and the manufacturing while Adrianne handles the business side . Before he could manage to teach the procedure on the recipe, he died .

If that’s the case, then I find it a little weird how that uncle at the marshlands recommended me to go here . Unless…

“Would your husband perhaps be bald with a peculiar beard coming from the sides of his face?”

I didn’t really see that style in this world, but I do remember reading it up once in the other world . Something called a Kaiser beard . I also mentioned some other noticeable features about him .

“Yes… Do you happen to be an acquaintance of him?”

“Rather than an acquaintance, I talked to him a while ago when I was at the marshlands . I was told to bring the slimes I got over here but…”

“That’s not possible… My husband died!”

“That is the case but, the fact that I met your deceased husband… It probably has something to do with my divine protection . ”

From my bag, I took out my adventurer card and showed it .

“Necromancer… Is that the divine protection that allows you see and talk to the dead?”

“… I don’t really know about that, but me being able to talk to your husband probably has something to do with it . ”

At hearing that, the wife came to cover her face with her hands as she quietly sobs .

The old man patted her shoulder trying to console her, while being on the verge of tears himself .

… Looking back at it, I guess I was a little too insensitive there… Well, it’s a good thing they at least they accepted my story .

Seeing this though, I can’t just leave here without helping .

And I’m sure I was entrusted by him for that reason .

“… I’m going to quickly get some things, so can you leave this shop open for a while longer? I should be back in about an hour . ”

Adrianne wiped her face and looked up to me .

“For what?”

“I don’t know if this can work or not, so just hear me out later . ”

When I quickly left the shop, I think I heard them call out to me . But I don’t think I have much time here, so I continued running .

~ Adventurer’s life Day 4 (Thur) Afternoon ~ Comnes Town – North East – Marshlands

Once I arrived at the marshlands, the sun was already close to setting .

I looked around, but I don’t see a single person .  I looked again, but I try to concentrate with my eyes .

This time I noticed a faint haze slowly forming into a shape of a human .

Whew, I didn’t think that would’ve worked .

“… I don’t believe it . Have you come here to see me…”

“Well yes, I guess . ”

From what Adrianne said, her husband is unmistakably the uncle I met earlier today .

“… You can’t hold that form for too long right? Mind helping me out a bit . Your shop didn’t had the recipe for the slime cloth so can you relay it to me?”

“… I wasn’t able to teach my wife about that, it’s probably my regret that keeps me here… I made notes on the procedure of making slime cloth . It’s hidden in the table in my workshop…”

From then on, his voice started getting faint .

Shortly after he faded away . He returned to being a faint haze as he was before .

There’s only a faint presence left of him now .

It’s faint but I can feel a gaze, even though there should be no one around .

“Mr husband . I’ll definitely convey this to your wife . ”

As I made my declaration, I headed back to town .

Seems like talking to him used up my mana as I’m starting to receive a headache like before, but this much is still endurable .

~ Adventurer’s life Day 4 (Thur) Dusk ~ Comnes Town – Rostam workshop

I arrived back at Rostam, and it seems Adrianne and old man Pietro were still waiting for me .

I steady my breath for a bit .

“It’s inside your husband’s table, is what he said . ”

I relayed what I was told .

Unable to contain herself, Adrianne gets up and headed over to the next room at the back .

Pietro stayed here in the room for a while until also going through the back .

He came back after a while, accompanying Adrianne . Her eyes have gone red again .

“I think it’s best… if I just take my leave for now huh?”

The old man gave a satisfied nod as he also took his leave .

“… Do you mind coming to this shop again?”

Is what the Adrianne asked me, but I gave my farewell and took my leave .

It’s fine if I talk to her about her husband at another time .

Though there’s not much I know about him to begin with .

Inconspicuously, I left my slime jelly inside the bamboo cylinder there .

I don’t really have any use for it myself, so I feel like it’s better to just leave it here like this .

I feel too guilty to ask for some money after all .

So the husband’s regret about his wife’s situation kept him tied this world .

The bond between spouses sure is strong…

Though that, “He’s either a ninja or an a.s.sa.s.sin!” was embarra.s.singly off the mark .

As I thought, relying too much on game knowledge is no good .

~ Adventurer’s life Day 4 (Thur) Evening ~ Comnes Town Inn [The Bulbul’s Burrow]

I came back to the inn, and after eating dinner I took a rest .

(It should be quite busy there for a while . Once it calms down, I could probably go back there again . )

I’m actually planning on making a request for a different kind of potion container, kinda like the gla.s.s ones in game .

There isn’t really much of a problem right now, but once I’m ready to make the poison and explosion potions, I’ll need to find another suitable container for those .

One that’s cheap, doesn’t break or leak when I’m carrying it along but breaks when thrown at an enemy .

I get the feeling that slime material might just be the material I’m looking for .

(I used quite a bit of mana again today… Thinking about it, I run out of it pretty quickly huh . )

I am just a novice adventurer after all, there’s a limit to how often I can use my skills .

However since my divine protections are more support orientated, it should be easy to increase my mana capacity when training them .

(This should be the case, but… . )

Can you even level up in this world? In the game, you get this aura going around you when levelling up . But even with Nemo’s memories of this world, I never heard of it happening here .

If it’s not possible, then how do you even defeat the stronger monsters later on? I hear that adventurers can defeat monsters to become more stronger easily, but regarding any details of that, I have no idea .

I can’t really think of anything myself .

Well I guess I’ll just have to find it out later on .

Levelling in the game is pretty straight forward, but a different amount of experience is given depending on what divine protection you have . So in the end, it’ll be normal for to end up at different levels .

For example, in the future ‘Necromancer’ may become level 2, while my ‘Alchemist’ is still level 1 .

The amount of experience gained is different for each fight, depending on how frequently it was used or if it was used as the final blow .

In this case, ‘Necromancer’ would benefit from this the most . Perhaps in the future, ‘Alchemist’ would benefit indirectly from the throwing skill . But I have no idea about ‘Sculptor’ .

There’s several problems here, but right now I’m deciding whether to focus on training the necromancer’s bone weapon or magic power .

Since I can only defeat monsters with the bone weapon, I’ll just have to focus on that for now .

(… Hopefully there’ll be a better method of combat than this in the future…)

Somewhere nearby the town is a popular place for testing out attacks . It’s the kind of monster that never runs away no matter how many times you defeat them, and is one I know very well of . Of course it’s none other than the sh.e.l.led rabbit .

Black slugs just aren’t good enough for this .

However, if I just rush right into it like last time, then the situation will end up no different . I should at least get some preparations done first .

I laid onto my bed for a brainstorm .

I’m getting a little nervous about tomorrow .
