Episode 21: The high-tech smell coming from the magic map

“Master. What are Marina’s experiences as a knight……no, there’s no way she has one. What the heck is that?” [Ayase]

“Iya~a, it seems like that girl admires knights a lot…… So….that is something like her prolonging interest in imitating a knight.” [owner]

I see.
…..wait it’s not just “I see”!!
…..What on earth is that girl doing at her current age!

But, well……it’s cute so whatever!

Anyway, I decided to buy Marina. To be more precise, I will have Jephthah-shi buy it for me though.

While Marina was still engaged in the skit with Diana, I signed the doc.u.ment first. The price is……40 gold coins. The tentative conversion of it would be roughly 6 mil j.a.panese yen. As for the price of a slave, I wasn’t sure how much would it cost for a good one but it should be cheap……
Well, Turk tribe appears to be unpopular and since her vocation is that, I guess it should be cheap. I should check on the prices of other slaves for future reference.

After that, the elf that was originally under the employment of the slave trading house helped in carrying out the contract between me and Marina.

In Marina’s opinion, 「I am the owner of Diana, the princess = a lord who is worthy to be served」 so the equation was somehow settled and the contract was completed normally without a hitch.

I pulled out the vocation board to confirm the agreement.

Good good…. [For clarification, apart from any orders that will endanger her life, Marina is required to obey everything Jirou said.] That remark was somehow included in the contract.

Eh? What does that mean?
That means even erotic orders are permitted! Yes!!
It’s totally a separate matter if a child emperor like me would or would not issue such a command though! Uo—

As for Marina, the slave trading house will be dressing her up as a service to me so I was asked to wait in the room first.

On our way to the room, Diana caught Jephthah midway to request for his agreement to provide as much accommodation as he could so I managed to chimed in to make my request too.

“By the way, Jephthah-san, it’s the matter relating to the mayor. In the end what was the promise that you had with her? It seems like you will be getting something from her if I win so I would like you to tell me.” [Ayase]

“Aa, it’s a map. The mayor has bet the map on the match.” [Jephthah]

“Eh? A map? Why a map?” [Ayase]

“Even though I said it’s a map, it’s actually an ancient magic map. I’m currently collecting these. I heard that the mayor managed to obtain something similar excavated from Rukuraera mountain so I negotiated with her.” [Jephthah]

Here it is, Jephthah-shi showed it to me.
An ancient looking parchment? It’s an easily drawn map…..Somehow the information on the map resembles a touch panel that I could switch on by touching. I couldn’t read the characters that came out so I got Rebecca-san to read it.

“Let’s see……『A group of goblins has been discovered deep inside the Rukuraera mountain’s mine! Requesting for their subjugation immediately! The clear condition is to subdue the mother goblin in the deepest part of the mine. The reward for clearing this will be 500G magic stone (red)』. What is this?” [Rebecca]

“It was used by the Hunter’s Guild during the ancient times. Apparently it was an order sheet from their work but I don’t know the in-depth details about it. I have another eight pieces of these with me but the written contents are roughly similar.” [Jephthah]

…..this is something like a guild request isn’t it? The unit used for money is G too. What is with this other world? So are the olden days a more RPG oriented world?

“Jephthah-san. When you say ancient, do you know the rough period where this map originated from?” [Ayase]

“It was said that this came from the era of Spirit civilization. So, it’s roughly……..1000 years ago.” [Jephthah]

Fu~un.
“The Mirror of Truth.”
