Rebuilding Civilization

2 Guards (Part 3)

"I looked around the room. A lot of stuff piled up here and there; about two carriages were worth goods at least. At a glance, I could instantly recognize different types of clothes, swords and spears. I expected more items like treasures before, so I felt a little disappointed."

(“Is the stuff here all yours?”) 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

(“Most of them. These items are my merchandise. Ah, and I think the money is in the box there.”) 

"Tarus-san pointed his finger at a small box in the corner."

(“Is this box yours too?”) 

(“No. But I think they put all the money I have in it as well.”) 

"I understand. So this stuff is sort of like a safe. It clearly looks like a tough looking box reinforced with metal."

(“Um. It was a decent gift guaranteed by law.”) 

"What's!? I didn't know that. So all this stuff here is now mine?"

(“Can I open it?”) 

(“By the way it's yours. However, I don't know where the bandits kept the key. ”) 

"I took out an electromagnetic knife and cut off all the parts that seemed to be getting in the way."

(“Outstanding! Is the knife a magic tool!?”) 

(“Ya I guess.”) 

"After opening the box, many different types of coins spilled out from it. But most of them were bronze and silver coins. There were only a few gold coins mixed in. There was also a knife encrusted with many precious-looking gems. Finally, something that looked like a real treasure appeared."

"Yosh, I don't know how exactly if converted to gold, but I think we won't have much trouble with our finances for a while with this much money."

(“Is this knife one of your things?”) 

(“No. Looks like a pretty fancy item. ”) 

"That's great. Although I feel a bit bad for the former owner of this thing even though it is now mine."

(“I will give everything here back to you apart from the contents of this box then.”) 

(“Will it be okay? It will give you quite a lot if you sell it. ”) 

(“I don't mind. The box is enough for me. I don't know their market value anyway. ”) 

(“Then, let me do what I said before and give you the appropriate compensation.”) 

(“No, you really don't need to. By the way, what about the belongings of your colleagues?”) 

(“One of my employees and five adventurers who escorted us were all killed. They are all people who have been in contact with me for quite a long time.”) 

(“I'll make sure all those bandits are put on trial. What about your carriage, Tarus-san?”) 

(“It looks like they just took the goods and threw them away. They sold the horses to get the gold immediately after catching me.”) 

(“Well that's a hassle. Our train is full. We won't be able to load this much stuff at all. ”) 

(“Then we just have to take this later. I don't think anything will happen to them, considering they are located deep within these mountains.”) 

(“I understand, understand.”) 

"Time to return. I don't have any business here anymore."

"I took out my collection bag. I put all the money I managed to get in it. It turned out to be quite heavy. I also put a jewel knife in it."

"I also found some sturdy-looking ropes inside the hiding place. I'll use this to tie those bandits."

(“I'm thinking of tying the bandits with this rope. Is it okay if I take it? ”) 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

(“But of course. Go ahead and use. How many of those bandits did you catch alive? ”) 

(“Um, fifteen of them. May.”) 

"That's if the people I kicked in the head earlier aren't really dead."

(“Eh? You managed to capture fifteen of them alive!?”) 

(“Well, there might be one or two people kicking the bucket. By the way, I heard that there will be some gifts given. Do you happen to know a lot that I will get for them? ”) 

(“As I recall, you will get 2000 Guineas for each corpse. And if you manage to catch them in good health enough to serve as ***, you will get 5,000 Guinea.”) 

"There's a foreign word. It looks like I won't be able to translate it even if I update the language database. It seemed like they were going to use a healthy-looking bandit for some purpose. Well, everything's fine as long as I manage to turn him alive, I guess."

"The corpse is worth two big gold coins and the live bandits are worth five huh. I can't judge if it's a reasonable amount because I still don't know about the market price."

(“Good then. I'm going back to our train. Please follow me. My friends are all waiting for me. Do you have anything else you want to bring?”) 

(“Well then..”) 

"Tarus-san took out some swords and other items and put them in a bag."

"The two bandits I left at the entrance were still cold. It took a few attempts to kick them back up."

"I let the two bandits walk in front while pointing at their backs with my sword. I heard how their merchant convoy was attacked from Tarus-san."

"Three days ago, their group was resting when he was suddenly shot with an arrow and quickly pressed down. It seems that the reason for his trip this time was to develop a new sales channel. They were on their way back to Gotania from the trip when they were attacked by bandits."

"We finally arrived back in the carriage."

(“Alan!”) 

(“Are you having any problems?”) 

"She looks fine, so I don't think they're having any trouble."

(“We are fine. This guy?”) 

(“He's Tarus-san, a merchant. He was captured by those bandits and I ended up saving him.”) 

"Tarus-san was shocked when he saw Cleria."

(“I Tarus, the owner of a general store in the city. I'm glad to meet you, Miss.”) 

"He then respectfully bowed towards Cleria. His attitude was very different from when he met me."

"I went to the bandits. It seems like they're all awake now. None of them were injured, so I don't think Beck and Thor can practice slashing at all."

(“Then, gentlemen. Unfortunately, I can't get that much after visiting your hideout, so I'm afraid I won't be able to let go of you all. Therefore, I must bring you all back to Gotania and hand you over to the authorities.”) 

"All the bandits turned towards me."

(“That's a lie! We got a lot of money and loot from that merchant! You're playing dirty! ” anonymous grunts A complains.) 

"You're a bandit so you have no right to call me dirty, you idiot."

(“All of you, shut up! You already know how good I am with magic! Just try and fight even a little. I'll stick some arrows at you and send you straight to Heaven! I can still get the reward money even if I hand over your corpse instead. I'm fine.”) 

(“Daddy, Thor. Use this rope to tie these people in a straight line; one person follows behind the other. I don't mind even if it's tight to the point that it blocks their blood flow a little bit, so make sure the knot is secured. ”) 

(“Understood!”) 

(“Oh yes. Don't forget to search them for money, yeah. ”) 

(“Can you keep an eye on the two of them, Ria?”) 

(“Sure.”) 

(“Sorry about this, Tarus-san. Can you wait for us for a minute?”) 

(“But of course. It feels quite nice to see this bastard being rude like this. By the way, they all seemed to be injured on their shoulders? ”) 

(“You're right. I did it with my magic.”) 

(“You gave them all the same wounds?”) 

(“Ya. Even if I don't look like that, I'm actually very good at magic.”) 

"It seems like Tarus-san is still not too sure of my explanation."

(“It just so happens, what is your relationship with that female knight?”) 

(“Ah, dia. I'm like his follower.”) 

"Tarus-san looked at me strangely. Un, looks like I ordered the Cleria before. Alright."

(“That knight is ** right?”) 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

"There are other foreign words. It was the same word Zack used in the village. Just what does it mean?"

"Well, we have our own circumstances."

"That's most of the truth."

"Tarus-san didn't push me any further after hearing that."

"We were able to secure all the bandits after about thirty minutes. In order to pull them by train, we tied them in groups of seven and eight and connected the rope that tied them to the back of the carriage."

(“Alan-san, what will we do with the money we get from them?”) 

"Beck and Thor came to me with hands full of money."

(“Ah, please put everything here. You can see what's inside too. ”) 

"I opened my bag and showed it to both of them."

(“Outstanding! That's a lot of money!”) 

"They made a fuss after seeing what was inside the bag."

(“Let's share later.”) 

(“What!? But you're the one who recovered it, Alan-san!”) 

(“It's okay. You risked your lives too. You are entitled to get a.” section) 

(“But...”) 

(“Let's postpone that problem for later. You already loaded the weapons of the bandits on the train right? Yosh, let's go then. ”) 

"Ts: This code is the sign → (“..... ”) to show the conversation bubble."

"The train starts heading towards Gotania once again."
