(239) Starting the journey

Translator: Tseirp

I only heard of it after becoming a Baron but apparently, we apprehended all the smugglers who were operating on this island .

Those with heavier crimes were given the death sentence while the others were made into criminal slaves .

On that note, Suzuki and I appealed for Pavlov so although he was not completely let off the hook and would be put under observation, he was not pushed into slavery .

One of the major reason for that was because the fake Death Warrior-sensei, who was actually a Knight — his name was Nelson if I remembered correctly —was completely unharmed .

After all, if Pavlov was not around, he probably would have been killed .

Under Nelson’s testimony, some speculated if we were in actual fact criminals but the job-seeing crystal was able to clearly prove that we were not criminals .

We told them that the red light seen at that time was through the trick of a skill and they easily believed us .

Since Earl Pavlov heard from Suzuki that he used Status Forgery to enter the smuggling crew, they probably a.s.sumed that I was the one who had that skill .

Suzuki and I parted ways on that day .

I set off to chase after Miri .

Every minute and every second was crucial right now .

“I see, so you are leaving already . Are you really sure regarding the reward from the smuggling crew?”

Half of the amount received from the sales of the smugglers as slaves .

And all the treasures they possessed belonged to Suzuki and me .

However, as it would take time to convert them into money, I refused it .

It would take way too long . I was told that it would take a month just to a.s.sess them .

I did not have the time to wait for them .

I tossed all the waiting and minor details to Suzuki — of course, it was not for free .

“Yeah, help to deposit 40% of the a.s.sessed value into Haru’s guild account in Florence’s Adventurers Guild . ”

“All right . ”

When Haru registered with the Adventurers Guild, an account to deposit money was set up for her and money could be deposited and transferred from any Adventurers Guild branch .

However, there was quite a considerable fee when transferring money so I had never used it until now since I had an item bag .

All the more so when it would take some time to withdraw the money from other towns . The Adventurer Guilds do possess communication magic tools so it was not as though I would have to wait for months though .

“What s.h.i.+p will you use for transport?”

“I have something in mind . ”

“I see . If you don’t mind, I was wondering if you would like to ride Pochi instead? Although you would have to wait for about a week . ”

“Sorry . I don’t want to see your three important companions who travel with you show unpleasant faces . ”

“I don’t think they would though . ”

This refres.h.i.+ngly handsome man . Does he not understand that it would be distasteful for a non-handsome man to enter a group with a handsome man in it?

At least it could be fun to have a double date if Haru and the others were around — although I don’t know if I could call it that when the number of girls was overwhelmingly larger —but I don’t intend to mingle in another man’s harem .

Furthermore, I had too many aspects that I could not show Suzuki .

Eh? The thin book that Suzuki hid?

It seemed that Nelson found it .

I don’t know what negotiations went through between Nelson and Suzuki but it became Nelson’s family treasure .

That’s not something that should be preserved for your descendants .

In the port town of Deijima, I immediately utilized my Baron’s authority to negotiate with the fishermen — and got them to send me to a nearby uninhabited island .

Of course, I gave them an adequate reward . After all, I received 10 holy silver coins from Earl Paul, 10 million sense . Ah, Suzuki taught me that not only were holy silver coins unusable in regular shops, but there was also a need for staff with the Counterfeit Appraisal skill to verify it before it could be used for exchange in the guilds so it was extremely hard to use and so I had all of them exchanged into gold coins .

Seeing 1000 pieces of gold coins lined up was quite a spectacle and really gave me the feeling that I had become rich . Of course, gold coins were similarly hard to use as well so I further exchanged two gold coins into silver coins .

In essence, I was not worried about money and although it was only a short two-hour voyage, I pa.s.sed to the fishermen a gold coin … that would be way too much so I paid them 30 silver coins instead .

“Thank you very much, Baron-sama . So when should we come back to receive you?”

“It is all right . I will return with the Home Return spell if I wish to return . ”

“Ooo, as expected of a n.o.ble . You are capable of using s.p.a.ce-time Magic . Farewell, please feel free to contact us whenever you have anything else in mind . ”

The old men fishermen said with lowered heads as they left .

I was neither a n.o.ble nor was it s.p.a.ce-Time Magic but I did not have to correct them .

Then, when I was alone on the uninhabited island, I returned to My World .

“Master, I have been waiting for your return . ”

Pionia quickly came to greet me .

She would always greet me whenever I enter My World .

Just how does she know the time I would enter?

“Pionia, have you completed the task I mentioned that time . ”

“Affirmative . I have prepared it . ”

Pionia said and guided me to the s.h.i.+pyard .

Docked there was a smaller-scale sailboat compared to the one I gave to the pirates in the past .

However, the preparations I asked for was not that boat .

“Were you able to properly beat it into her?”

“Affirmative . I have firmly beat the art of seafaring into her . There are no issues . ”

Pionia looked up at the deck .

There was a single young girl wearing a straw hat there .

“I will become the pirate king-desu!”

An idiot — originally known as Sheena No . 3, said while wearing a straw hat .

It seemed that she was influenced by the comic 『Nyapiece』 that she was holding in her hands .

She wasn’t even a Pirate so she probably can’t become a pirate king .

” … I feel like Sheena No . 3 has become even more of an idiot than before though … is it really okay?”

“Affirmative . I a.s.sure you of her technique . ”

“I see … no issues huh . ”

I guess it was all right if Pionia said it was .

Since she could recite the phrase in the comic, it meant that she was now able to understand j.a.panese which was quite amazing .

Nevertheless, I still felt slightly uneasy that I would be entrusting everything to her for this voyage .
