Chapter 15 - Receiver

Here is it, the new chapter. Enjoy it!

Aiga Janies-sama

Dear sir

The season when the dragon blow its fire breath has come, but how are you right now in your territory?

Well then, I think that I should refrain from sending such a letter to you who had left of the party, but after consulting with the other members, I decide to send this letter.

Actually the other day. Morrier had disappeared. That child yearns for you.I didn’t tell him your territory, but if he ever come to your place, please persuade him to return to the party.

I hear that this summer will be much hotter than before. Please take care of yourself.

Yours sincerely.

Tiana Fan Rail

*********************

Haa …

If Morrier came back from the expedition and knew about my dismissal, as expected that would happen.

But I thought Tiana would somehow resolve it.

After all, it was Tiana that met Morrier for the first time.

–They even took a bath together.

But … How old is Morrier now?

Uhm, It had been one, two, three years after that guy entered the party …

Oh, he was already 15 years old …

I thought he was still a child, but he had become young man before I realized.

I hope he didn’t meet strange people…

◇

By the way.

Recently, I felt like I had been recognized by the villager as “lord”.

Various villager had come on regular basis to offered me their grain and seafood.

Well.

As I thought it was a good decision to built my residence at the same time with the Bulletin Board.

It’s noticeable when I built such a big residence, “Oh, the lord came.”

I guess Igarashi-san’s advice was good.

“It was actually better to build the residence on a small hill, but …”

She said, it was matter of efficiency.

Kankankankan …

But my house wasn’t completed yet.

So I live in the separate room for the time being.

“Igarashi-san. Is your grandfather healthy?”

“Yes”

It was not something small.

“What is he doing recently?”

“… I don’t know because I haven’t returned home.”

“I want to see him for a bit, do you want to go there with me?”

“…”

That was because her grandfather,

“Igarashi Isao (62)”

Had many experience that he knew which seed was suitable for which soil.

He would also be the leader in seed management and seedling production.With that, he was the key person who controlled the yield of this territory.His suitable job was also a [Harvester], his talent and his current job were the same.(TN: Tell me if you know the better translation for that job name. Here is the raw 収穫高)For such an important person, I had already marked this Isao with my training skill [Receiver].

◇

The training skill [Receiver] was a useless skill for the hero party even from the beginning.

In short, this was an “experience transfer skill”.

For example, I, Cross , and Tiana took a quest to killed monsters.

However, Emma, Deri and Morrier could not participate in the quest due to a cold.

At this time, the three absent people usually did not gain any experience.

However, if I marked each of them with [Receiver], the experience value would also be transferred to the three people who were absent.

This skill didn’t do much … because everyone didn’t get sick or had their own circumstance that much.

Being able to gained experience even when you didn’t participate in the quest or battle was something good.

Maybe it would seem effective if there was only a single expedition, but the other party members could have their own expedition, and at such a time, this skill became useless.

However, was it the same if I used it to strengthen my territory… I’m testing that right now.

It would be amazing if I could mark someone with this [Receiver] to someone who couldn’t take part in battle but had an important role.

For example, if I marked the farmer Isao with [Receiver], he would accumulate experience points even without participating in battle, and his ability as a [High Yield] would increase.

However, only three people could have this mark at the same time

Well, that was because I learned this skill for the adventurer party, so I thought few peoples were enough.

“Iyaa. Recently, my waist is light. And I always sleep like a log too now.”

Isao-san who had a stunning bald head said so.

“How is it? Something like using production magic, can you do that?”

If he could use [Production Magic] the future yield would become more stable… That was the kind of story that I wanted.

“Hmm … what? Is that something like this?”

Isao-san created a ring that glowed dimly at his fingertip.

“That’s it! That’s it!”

“This, and if I do this … Look, Lord-sama. Look here.”

Looking at him, I saw that Isao-san’s hair had begun to grow.

… Well, so production skill could also be used like that.

◇

For the time being, I would mark Isao with one of the three mark of [Receiver].

The other was already used for Yoshioka Shohei.

And the last one …

First, I thought about Garcia, but the skills that merchants could gain from experience value were only skills to called customer to bought something from their store.

Igarashi-san was a talented secretary, but she would instead learned skills related to [Bride].

I’ve marked Garcia for the moment, but I needed to find someone who was suitable for this [Receiver] skill.
