71 CHAPTER VII MANAGURE TO MANAGE YOUR SHOP ③ (2/2)

Hey! I'm aiming at you!

I tried to stop him, but he was too busy firing his magic at my face.

Then, as if remembering, it came back to me and came toward me at high speed.

Uncle!　How long does the drug work?

Maybe five more minutes, so good luck!

Okay!

There's only room for five minutes.

A few minutes later

It finally stopped working.

The Serpent had fallen asleep, as if his earlier movements had been a lie.

'See!　Hurry up and restrain me before I wake up!

With that command, the people who were waiting with their restraints ran to the sleeping demon.

''Feng, I guess that's it.

It's all too easy and a bit boring.

I wanted to move some more.

We're going back to the carriage now, okay?

Oh, my God. I've got a lot of work to do lugging this stuff around.

That's true. How do you move it?

Drag him out of the forest to the cart. I'll get the cart and take it to the arena.

I see. Then you were lucky to catch the demon as soon as you entered the forest.

Yeah. Now we just have to hope we don't run into a powerful demon on the way home.

I have a feeling that's a flag: ......

”Guaaaah: ～～～～

What?　Where's it coming from?

Ugh, up here!

There it is!

Above them was a demon with big wings.

All hands, get away from the Serpent now!　He's going for the big bait.

Just as the uncle had predicted, the big monster landed on the snake and began to eat.

Well, too bad we caught it. That's a wyvern, isn't it?

They're different colors, but they're the same ones I saw in the dungeon.

'Yeah. . looks like it. ...... All of you, leave quietly so as not to provoke.

Everyone follow the uncle and fall back slowly, trying not to make a sound.

Hey, Uncle.

Hmm?　What's going on?

Do you still have that sleeping pill you gave me?

'Yeah, there's ......, but I'm not going to stick an arrow in that guy ......, okay?'

”Don't worry. I've got an idea. I got an idea.

Well, okay, but ...... yes.

'Thank you!　Well then, I'm off!

They gave me some sleeping pills, and then poof, I was transferred.

Where?　Could it be that ...... Oh, there it is.

When I got to the vicinity of the wyvern, I started talking to him.

”Hi, excuse me for eating. This will help you enjoy your meal.

Then, with a thud, he poured a sleeping potion on the Serpent's flesh.

The wyvern was surprised at my sudden appearance and angered that I had interrupted his meal, and he swung his arms around to face me.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Now, go on with your meal.

With that, I escaped in transition before the wyvern's attack could hit me.

''Now I'll have an intact wyvern.

'Yes, I know, but ...... you're as bold as ever in what you do.

Bold, but good, right?　And now I don't have to search for demons for nothing.

'Yes. ...... When the wyvern goes to bed, hurry up and restrain him!　We're going to make it several times more powerful than it was earlier.

Pops was pissed at me and started telling his men what to do.

Moments later, the Wyvern fell asleep as the snake ate him up.

”Well, I guess this completes the task. I think the emperor will be pleased that we got a better harvest than I expected.

'You'll be glad you did, but ...... for me, I would have liked to have fought someone a little easier!'

The uncle looked gloomy as he watched the wyvern being carried by a crowd of people.

''Oh well, I'll give you a custom-made sword as an apology, good luck with that.

'All right, ...... How awesome is that sword, by the way?'

'I can harden the blade and clothe it with magic!

My master showed me the prototype yesterday and I was surprised to see that it turned out to be a magic sword.

That's great. But wouldn't a magical stone attached to a sword be able to produce that much power?

You're the man. You know what I mean - that's why I'm giving you a special order.

What's so special about it?

What do you mean?

It's a magic tool that doesn't use magic stones.

'What?　What do you mean?　How can you use it with no magic stones in your magic tools?

'Uncle himself should act as the magic stone.

Hmm?　What do you mean?

All you have to do is pour the magic directly into the sword. With your magical power, there's no need for magic stones.

It does consume a lot of magic power though.

So that's why. Then it should be easy to use.

''Yeah. But the problem is that only people who can use magic manipulation can use it.

So you're not for sale.

Is that so?　Okay, maybe I'll give it to my unit. They all know how to manipulate magic.

Okay. I'll ask my master.

Yeah, I got a customer!

”Leo-kun's mentor... I'll go see him sometime.

It's a nice old man.

Oh yeah, I'd love to meet you. I'll come over and thank you for the sword next time. I'll be going home then.

I think they just finished hauling the wyvern as we speak.

It's time for another long, long ride.
