Chapter 14 - Volume 1 (1/2)

The building was a short walk from the merchants guild.

A wooden one-story house with a signboard that had Sagittarius written on it.

Although it didn’t look like the headquarters of the best guild of this country—

「Now, this is the transportation guild that all the heavyweights of every country use. I have already contacted them beforehand, so please enter, Axel-kun, Berzelia-kun.」

Urged, we entered the building. Then—

「Greetings. Welcome to the transportation guild 『Sagittarius』」

A lady in a beautiful dress came to greet us.

Then, seeing us and Dort standing behind, she beamed.

「Kaufmann-san, welcome… And those two are the rumored superhuman beginner carrier duo?」

「Superhuman, huh… Dort, old man. What did you tell them?」

「W-well, a lot. Anyway, this lady is Marion, the representative of this guild.」

When Dort said that, the woman called Marion grabbed the hem of her clothes and gave an elegant bow.

「Nice to meet you. I am Marion Fuberge. I am the representative of this transportation guild『Sagittarius』. Pleased to make your acquaintance.」

「Axel and Berzelia, pleased to meet you as well, Marion-san.」

「Fufu, Marion is fine, Axel-san. Please, this way. Tea is already prepared.」

When I replied, Marion smiled once again and asked us to come inside.

And lead by her we arrived at the table that had cups filled with tea arranged on it.

「Now, I heard the story from Kaufmann-san. You just transferred to a transportation-type job and want information regarding that occupation.」

Marion asks while drinking tea.

Looks like Dort provided sufficient amount of details upon contacting them.

Though not even ten minutes had passed since he said that he will introduce me to this guild, it’s nice how fast he is with his arrangements.

「Yes, I suddenly went to Uncle Dort’s Guild and it seems that I was a bit out-of-place. In order to work without troubles in the future, I wanted to learn common practices and basic techniques. I’ve just got the job of《Carrier》and can’t tell left from the right at the moment.」

As I said while showing the transpiration bag, a surprised expression appeared on Marion’s face.

「Axel-san, so you are really a beginner-tier. When I heard that you defeated bandits I thought that you were faking your job… But looking at this bag and the power overflowing from your body, it doesn’t appear to be a lie.」

She said while looking at my face and body.

「Overflowing power? You can see something in me?」

The one who answered the question was Dort sitting next to me.

「Yes, Marion-kun is one of the few in our country possessing high-tier transportation job《Imperial Courier》. So she has the skill to detect the power of other people.」

To Dort’s words, Marion nodded with a wry smile.

「Fufu, I was exposed by Kaufmann-san, but well, that’s the case. I have confidence in my eye for people.」

「I see, so advanced transportation jobs have skills to measure the power of others. Or rather, one of the few in the whole country, Marion is an amazing person.」

「Not that much. Actually, your own power doesn’t seem like that of beginner-tier at all, from my viewpoint you are an amazing one. I was wondering what kind of people Kaufmann-san wanted to back-up, but looking at you I’m convinced.」
