Chapter 2373: Purchase of Exclusive Brush
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
After handing the shampoo to Cornelia-san, we decided to head once again to the town where the trading company we were aiming for was located. Since I had never been to that town before, we would be traveling using Cornelia-sans teleportation magic tool.
This time, however, I was leaving the guiding to Cornelia-san, so the plan was to meet near the teleportation gate and head to the destination from there. Still, even for a city Id never visited, it was easy to go there now if I wanted.
Thats because the teleportation gate in my room had been updated multiple times by Shiro-san, and was now at version 3.0 Even without knowing the world coordinates, it had a tablet-like touch interface that lets me search for a location on the map and specify it. Thanks to that, I could reach almost anywhere.
[Well then, lets head to the trade city right away. You may choose between directly teleporting to the front of the Victor Trading Company, or teleporting a little distance away and taking a carriage into town while enjoying the scenery. Which would you prefer?]
[Ah, in that case since its my first time visiting this area, Id like to see what the place looks like, so lets take the carriage.]
I didnt know how long the application for brush-making would take, but it probably wouldnt be hours and hours. It might be nice to do a bit of sightseeing afterward before going home.
[Ive arranged for a carriage and a maid who will serve as both guard and driver to wait at the teleportation point. Now then, Ill be touching your body for a moment.]
[Yes.]
Hearing about a maid serving as both guard and driver no longer struck me as strange. Well, in this world, if shes a maid, being able to drive a carriage is only natural. That was the only thought that came to mind, which made me realize how much Id already been influenced by this worlds common sense.
When we traveled using the teleportation magic tool, a large carriage stood before us, and a maid was waiting there, bowing as she saw us.. but she was a familiar face.
[Arehh? Is that you, Anne-san?]
[My, Im honored that you remembered my name.]
[Oh? Kaito-sama, you know her?]
[Ah, no, its not like weve spoken directly before, but when I went to watch the Maid Olympia, she fought against a maid I knew. That left an impression.]
Yes, the maid waiting for us turned out to be none other than Anne-san, Lunamaria-sans first opponent in the Maid Olympia. A completely unexpected reunion.
[I see. I also once attended the Maid Olympia as a spectator. The one two tournaments ago]
[Oh, but despite its scale, there were hardly any ordinary visitors, right?]
[Ah, w- well the Maid Olympia is something of a sanctuary for maids, so its rare for non-maids to watch. Admission to the spectator seats is also prioritized for those with maid qualifications and, well, it has a rather unique atmosphere. When I attended, the contents and themes were all wonderfully arranged, but being surrounded almost entirely by maids made it hard to fit in. So I didnt watch the last one.]
[I get what you mean. No matter where you look, its nothing but maids. It really feels like youve wandered into some strange otherworld.]
Before I realized it, Cornelia-san and I exchanged eye contact and shook hands. It was like our bond had deepened, wed found something only those who had endured the same hardship could truly understand.
No, really, the matches themselves were fun to watch, but that overwhelming sight of maids filling the entire venue was so bizarre, the sense of being an outsider was unbearable.
[Still, Im a bit surprised. From the Maid Olympia introduction, I thought you were Alexandra-sans disciple, so I assumed you worked at the imperial castle.]
[Yes, just as you had guessed, until three years ago, I did serve as a maid in the castle. But after marrying, I was now employed by the Sharon County.]
[Her husband serves as my fathers, Count Sharons, assistant, so she came to us through that connection. She now serves as our head maid.]
Well, considering she competed in the main tournament of the Maid Olympia, and if I recall correctly she was introduced as having placed sixth in the previous tournament, she must be a highly capable maid.
Although, in this world, being a capable maid could mean being well-versed in a very peculiar worldview, so one has to be careful about referring someone like that but honestly, the only one I know whos extremely skilled yet never once brings up the Maid World or Maid Power is Illness-san.
Serious-senpai : [A totally unexpected reappearance, but with it being almost certain theyll run into Nidzveld afterward, it just looks like another Stomachache Warrior has been added strange, isnt it]
