Volume 3 Chapter 9: Carrier inside God Tree

Translator: “Pink Tea” Editor: ”Ryunakama”

I watched as carrier Axel stuffed the baggage, provisions, daily necessities, medical supplies and other everyday commodities inside his bag.

「Is this everything?」

「Y-Yes, that’s all of it.」

Yes. All of the goods they planned to deliver so the people on the upper floors will be able to last for a while, already were inside the bag. Furthermore—

「I still have plenty of room. It’d be nice if you bring anything else you’d like me to transport.」

I stared at Axel, after he said such a thing.

「Eeh……Mmm? You still have room?」

「Yup. I think I can take at least three times this much. So I think we can get there everything you planned to carry in several trips.」

Therefore, he had his knights bring even more luggage, but—

「It really went in……」

「It’s not a mere one day supply…… That’s what we planned to carry over a whole week……」

As soon as the knights brought new luggage it disappeared inside of the transportation bag.

「No way, it’s this big……」

And as I exclaimed in surprise along with my subordinates, Cecile said to me—

「Told you, didn’t I. Axel-san is an amazing carrier!」

「Ah, yeah, indeed……」

Being told that by my daughter and witnessing the sight in front of my eyes, I weakly nodded.

To be honest, until now I was very uneasy about the idea of putting a request to Axel-san.

But it’s also the truth that in this harsh situation, his kind and appealing proposal made me want to cling to it right away. I wanted to agree even if it were preposterous. However—

……Axel-san is an important guest.

There are all kinds of rumors going around the one known as a flying carrier.

How he mows down robbers and beasts, moves with a speed beyond human perception, amazing enough to transport a whole house, a whole variety of them. But all of them uniformly tell of his excellence.

Yet, even so, I couldn’t agree to his proposal right away.

Rumors are not an accurate source of information. Getting influenced by them and losing the life of our important guest and the person I respect is not something I’d want to do. After all, the ability scores of a mere carrier are by no means high.

Therefore, I resolved to request this of him counting on support from the heroes in case something goes wrong.

……However, seeing this abnormally spacious bag……

I now was overflowing with hope and something similar to relief, maybe he is indeed a carrier completely out of the norm, that will be able to carry out this request without a hitch.

And while I looked at Axel with such thoughts—

「I just have to hand this over to the staff of the magic science guild on the other side of the passage?」

He asked, pointing above.

「Ye-yes. Right after you get out of this passage you should see the top of the magic science guild that should come to receive the luggage. They usually wear a white robe so you can use that to recognize them and hand over the package. 」

Replying with roger that, Axel put the transportation bag on his shoulder.

「Then, let’s get moving. Berzelia, Saki. Some wood might come falling, please deal with that.」

「Okay, Master.」
