Ultimate Porter ~The Weakest Man Aspires to be an Adventurer~

Our long trip continues .

Though in truth it’s a difficult situation, I don’t feel inconvenienced thanks to my magic and skills .

It was nice living in a hotel but living spontaneously like this is also good .

There’s a lot more you have to do for yourself but not being bound by societies rules is a good feeling .

I’m not troubled by food and thanks to my powers I can sleep anywhere . A person can be truly free like this .

Usually, such a lifestyle is impossible so most people are bound to society .

“Priest-san do you want a hot ale?”

Now it’s Chaser who’s taking away my freedom, however, hearing the words hot ale in this cold makes me want to re-enter society .

I guess I’m still a human being when it comes down to it .

“Should we have a drink in the next town?”

“How much have we got left?”

“830 rims . ”

“Just about enough . ”

“Could we sell the ducks that George-kun caught?”

“We can ask the owner of the bar . I guess they’ll buy it . ”

We were both enjoying living a life with no urgency .

There’s a certain pleasure that comes from escaping human society and only having minimal contact .

In a single phrase, it would be ‘an easy life’ .

Glee Barrel was a small town with an inn that also had an attached dining hall . It gave off a good impression . A country town with a few good stores and easy to live in .

Entering the dining hall we decided to have a hot ale .

“Welcome priest-sama . ”

“h.e.l.lo . Two hot ales please . ”

“I’ll bring them over right away . It’s a cold day . ”

Chaser is currently negotiating the sale of the ducks .

I’m really poor at haggling and negotiations .

It’s probably because I don’t understand the markets . I’d feel bad if I came in too high .

In the first place, George-kun caught them, not me . I never do anything by myself .

We had three ducks and managed to get 1000 rims for them .

It seemed a bit cheap but on the plus side, the hot ale became free .

I guess its fine .

“h.e.l.lo, priest-sama . ”

An unknown man called out to me . His appearance was not bad .

He has the look of a servant from some house .

“My name is Bento . I work for the lords of this town, the Mekooru family . ”

“How polite . I’m Redbull . A travelling priest . ”

“Excuse me for asking Redbull-sama but can you use recovery magic?”

“Only low-level healing as I’m an exorcist and not a technique user . ”

I can smell a chance of making money here .

Our money is running out . I should really try to make some .

Our money is running out . I should really try to make some .

“That’s most welcome news! The young master has a cold with a high fever . Our local healer is currently out of town and won’t be back for at least a week . ”

“Sorry to hear that . ”

“I’m sorry for the trouble but would you come to the house please?”

“I understand . Let’s go . ”

Counting on some income from this I set off to the local lord’s house .

Stepping into the room it was obviously a child’s room . The walls and carpet were in bright colours and toys and books were orderly lined up in one of the corners .

It seems like a loving upbringing .

The young master Andrew was lying on the bed and looked in pain .

I’d guess his age to be about 7 years old .

A quick scan tells me his body temperature is nearly 40 degrees .

Poor lad, that’s quite hot .

I immediately start treatment .

It’s undesirable to gain a reputation here so I use a modest amount of recovery magic .

I reduce his fever almost completely to a point where he will recover naturally .

“Now, please drink this . ”

“Is it medicine?”

“No, it’s apple juice . ”

I hand Andrew a gla.s.s of apple juice and he drinks it all in one go .

I guess he was very thirsty .

“Do you want some more? I don’t mind if you do . ”

“Do you want some more? I don’t mind if you do . ”

“Please . My throat is so dry and I’m really hungry . ”

Seems like he’s fine already .

His own body should be able to finish the rest now .

“You’ve saved him . Thank you priest-dono!”

Overcome with emotion lord Mekooru grasped my hand while his wife next to him had tears in her eyes and lowered her head . (1)

It seems like everyone dotes on him .

“You don’t have to worry anymore . Just keep an eye on him and make sure he stays hydrated . ”

While I’m talking to the couple the sound of breaking gla.s.s and the scream of a maid echoes from the corridor .

The women of this world are not so soft as to scream at rats and c.o.c.kroaches .

Listening carefully I can hear multiple footsteps from the corridor and people with obvious bad intentions enter the room .

“Please excuse me . ” A man who looks like the boss calls out to us in a bold voice .

There appear to be about 10 men behind him and they seem to have taken the servants as hostages .

“This mansion…no this entire town of Glee Barrel is now ours . We’ve dealt with all your soldiers so stop your useless resistance . ”

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d… . . you’re Glenn aren’t you?”

“Hou, you remembered . Of course, I haven’t forgotten you at all!”

Mekooru and this man know each other .

Trouble seems to have arrived .

Chaser’s spear along with my luggage is down in the entrance hall where the servants put them .

I’ve got my handgun with me but it only has 4 bullets so it’s not much good .

If the bag was open I could get George-kun to bring the hummingbirds to me but its closed tight .

No matter how skilful George-kun is, he can’t open it from the inside .

The leader Glenn approaches Mekooru .

“You seem to have done well with the money . Don’t think you can pay me off this time . ”

“That’s an unjust resentment . Your mercenary company is just made up of commoners wh—Gofu!”

The words of Mekooru are cut off by Glenn’s fist .

“Stop talking . You’ll have plenty of time to cry out after this . ”

“What are you going to do?”

“Don’t worry, we go way back don’t we . Thanks to you I was sent to jail and went through h.e.l.l . I’m not going to kill you straight away . ”

Glenn’s face is twisted by insanity .

Any trace of a decent human being was gone .

“What should I do?……… Oh, I know . Let’s rape your wife for starters while you and your son watch . Hihihi, you’ve got a good body, don’t you? Looks tasty . ”

Glenn’s eyes roam all over Mrs Mekooru while he licks his lips .

“Next I’ll enjoy your son . Boy, come play with your uncle . It’ll be fun! Crush his fingers, gouge out his eyes, cut out his tongue… . . aah…… . . aha……ahahahaha! My b.a.l.l.s! I’ve c.u.m just thinking about it!”

“…… . Please . I don’t care if you kill me but please leave my wife and son alone!”

“Of course I’m going to kill you . After I’ve enjoyed myself as much a possible I’ll kill you right at the very last moment . ”

I seem to be caught up in some outrageous situation .

“What should I do with these guys?”

One of his subordinates points to me and Chaser .

“…… . Kill em . ”

Glenn showed no interest in us as he gave out his order .

(1) The author doesn’t actually call him Lord but Mekooru and a kanji for a retainer/knight family but that wouldn’t translate very well to English so I just called him lord .
