Vol 3 Chapter 55

Chapter 55

Events in the sandwich kingdom

At last we leave the troubled Karnan Kingdom and head for the Kurt Kingdom, the last place to visit this time.

“By the way, what kind of country is the Kurt Kingdom?”(s.h.i.+n)

I remembered that I didn’t hear about the last place we had to visit yet when we switched to flying after leaving Karnan Kingdom.

“The Kingdom of Kurt is a major producer of cereals, especially wheat,”

“It seems that the food self-sufficiency rate exceeds three hundred percent, there are many countries importing barley from the Kurt Kingdom”

“Because of that, wheat is cheap and there are many kinds of bread. Most of the types of bread made all over the world were born Kurt Kingdom.”

“Oh, you know exactly what it’s like.”(s.h.i.+n?)

“Because I learned it all in secondary school”

It seems that the mandatory education of the general public is nearly over by secondary school. Because there was no geography/world history in the entrance examination of the higher magic school, I didn’t study it at all.

“In that sense, Princess Mei is studying geography in the field, is not it?”(Mark)

“I become sleepy during cla.s.ses, but this kind of studying is pleasant!”(Mei)

“Mei, are you studying properly?”(August)

“Raw, I got caught!”(Mei)

Mark looked surprised when he saw Mei who was thrusting Gus with a stupid thing and was stupid. (Kaelpie: I can’t figure out this sentence but eh. This works for me)

“In Kurt Kingdom, the Guru is more popular than the Magi.”(August)

“Oh, is that so?”(s.h.i.+n)

“Oh, it certainly is so.”(August)

“Well… well, my grandmother seems to have invented a lot of things in the past, so it is not surprising that she is popular because of one.”(s.h.i.+n)

“It’s not like that, it’s a more practical thing.”(August)

“Practical?”(s.h.i.+n)

I wonder what? Are magical tools involved?

“Well, I think you’ll know as soon as you arrive in Kurt Kingdom”(August)

He didn’t tell me this in detail.

Mu… that bothers me.

And as usual, we crossed the border, entered the Kurt Kingdom and flew to the sky…

“Oh, the breadbasket is different from the Karnan Kingdom…”(s.h.i.+n)

“This is also quite a sight. The impression is so much different from above”

“Wheat carpet!”(Mei)

The wheat field, which still had days before the harvest, was not wheat, but like a green carpet, it was a barley field all around.

“This is amazing… I can also see that the food self-sufficiency rate is high”(s.h.i.+n)

But there is one question.

“If it’s this many… harvesting it will be difficult…”(s.h.i.+n)

Will you harvest this with human hand…?

“That’s related to the story from just now”(August)

“Why my grandmother is popular?”(s.h.i.+n)

“It’s impossible for human beings to harvest this vast field, right?”(August)

“That’s impossible”(s.h.i.+n)

I understood it then.

“In other words, grandma developed a magic tool for harvesting?”(s.h.i.+n)

“There is also a magic tool to cultivate the field afterwards. The Kurt Kingdom has many fertile lands, and wheat production has been actively done on them, although harvesting will have a personnel problem. There was a chance that it was impossible to increase the yield. Then the Guru developed a magic tool to cultivate the field and a magic tool that simult

aneously harvests and threshes, it became possible to expand the field and the yield was dramatically increased. That’s why the Guru still enjoys such a huge popularity.”(August)

Got it. They wanted to expand the area of ​​the field, but the harvest does not catch up even if it expands. She developed a so-called tractor and combine for that.

Grandma is amazing. Suffices to say, she was a mother of inventions.

“Even now I’ve heard from my father that half of the sales at Hague’s Kurt branch are for cultivators, harvesters and their maintenance costs!”(Alice)

“Making a magical tool that will serve the people… Merida-sama is truly wonderful. I respect her more and more”(Yuri?)

Magic tools used for living rather than magic tools used for battles are better for the general public.

Grandpa is a so-called hero, and grandma is considered a friend of the citizens by improving their daily lives.

I start feeling proud again that I am the grandchild of those two.

“The grandchild of such heroes is insane and causes trouble all over the world” (August)

“There are no troubles that I cause intentionally!”(s.h.i.+n)

I don’t wake up trouble, it gets up arbitrarily!

“What will you do when you arrive at the Kurt Kingdom? Do you have any particular interest there?”

“No, I don’t think I do…”(s.h.i.+n)

I don’t have a pa.s.sion for cooking, and I don’t have any desire to eat special rice, so I don’t want to find rice… what should I do? (Kaelpie: How un-j.a.panese like)

“Well, I want to buy some bread from Kurt Kingdom as souvenirs and then wait somewhere. I will return to the kingdom today, I want to finish this trip without any trouble”(s.h.i.+n)

“…You have already been involved in trouble from this morning,”(Maria?)

“This is almost the end.  And shouldn’t you be quiet?”(s.h.i.+n)

As if I was running around causing trouble.

However, there is no day when trouble didn’t occur during this trip…

Arriving in Kurt Kingdom, Gus went to see the king and the groups went to sightsee as usual. We will return home today so we don’t have to look for lodging. We went to town for the time being.

“Oh … it smells good … ….”

“Smells like baking bread”

“I’m hungry.”

This time there is nothing I would like to do, so everyone is looking around the city.

When I got to the city, there was a good smell around. Just walking in the street makes you hungry.

“Ah! I smell sandwiches! Let’s all buy one!”

When I look around, I often see people eating something while walking, like sandwiches and crepes. In this country this seems to be normal.

Various shops full of sandwiches line up, and we are trying to differentiate each shop, such as the stall with mainly meat, vegetable main store, fruit main store, etc.

The female team went to a vegetable and fruit shop, men bought sandwiches at the store which sells mainly meat.

I bought a sandwich with cuc.u.mber and lettuce with various hams.

I personally think that the combination between cuc.u.mber, ham and mayonnaise is the best.

“Iya, bacon, tomatoes and lettuce are the best, aren’t they?”

“Oh yeah, but then there is the olives combination with onion…”(Olivia)

“Yeah, but what about cheese with lettuce and ham?”                                                            “Iya”                                                                                                                                                           “Yeiyea” (Kaelpie:??????)

Eleven people claim theirs is best at the same time…

Yes, everyone claims their preference is the best. There is no end to it.

The contents were sandwiched between slender breads rather than sandwiched between regular bread, so they kept warm and delicious while eating.

While strolling through the city and eating, there was a bookstore on the street corner, and a picture of a young man and a woman was hung at the eaves.

“Oh, the Magi and the Guru!”(Alice)

“Wait…what…?”(s.h.i.+n)

Alice said such a shocking thing, looking at a painting of a redhead woman that was somewhat fancy with its intellectual hanging gla.s.ses although it had a young and provocative smile.

What is this picture of grandpa and grandma?

“Haa …. It’s Merida-sama. So cool.”

“They drew the heroes well”

“Even so, it is truly a Kurt Kingdom bookshop. There are more books related to the Guru than the Magi.”

“It’s not a one of a kind book?”(s.h.i.+n)

“There is nothing like that, as for the books about the Magi and the Guru, new books are issued cheaply every year”

“Although the first one is said to be original, they wrote an unknown back story to a complete secondary creation. Now there are books of various genres appearing”

Seriously… Grandpa, Grandma, it’s become a serious thing….

“Well, now both of them are old now, but this picture is wonderful.”

“They were old since I was born…”(s.h.i.+n)

Since I was little they were grandpa and grandma.

I will show you the old picture of my life. (Kaelpie: Looking at this line now i remember i wanted to change it to something that makes more sense several times but i spent a little while trying to figure it out then moved on thinking i’m gonna do it later and i never did so it slipped by. lol.)

“Did you come from Earlshyde?”(Bookstore Clerk)

“Oh, yeah, but how did you know?”

While talking and looking at the picture hanging on the shop, a girl from the bookstore spoke to us.

“Because the Onii-chan over there was talking as if he saw the two recently. The story goes that the two of them, returned to Earlshyde with their grandchild. Even if you are from Earlshyde I thought you knew about it.”(B-Clerk)

“Oh, so that’s it.”

Is that story known to foreign countries?

“Huh? You saw those two?”

“How envious!”

“We want to hit you because you’re so lucky”

People who overheard the talk gathered around me.

Everyone is praising grandpa and grandma.

Mei spoke up when I was feeling a bit irritated.

“s.h.i.+n onii-chan is embarra.s.sed”(Mei)

“Why? Are you shy?”(?)

“s.h.i.+n onii-chan is Merlin-sama and Merida-sama’s grandchild!”(Mei)

At that moment, I felt the surrounding air stopped.

Everyone organized the words heard just now in their heads and slowly turned towards me.

“Are there two grandchildren?”

“Is she serious? Is it not a prank?”

“No… I do not think such a small child would play such a thing”

“Besides, I heard the story of there being two people”

“Well…” (s.h.i.+n)

Go…

“Well, she is the grandchild’s grandchild! “(s.h.i.+n) (Kaelpie: 99% sure this is wrong but eh. I think this is better than what’s probably right)

It brought it all down at once.

“Ha!”

“Sorry I’m sorry!”

“Wait a moment!”

“Signature! Signature!”

“Shake hands with me! Please shake hands!”

A signature? Handshake? I have never done such idol-like things!

Then I held Mei, who was by my side, and we all ran away from the people who came in droves.

Eventually everyone ran away.

If we remained there it was inevitable we would be questioned.

“Wow! Mei why did you say such a thing in such a place!”(Ellie)

“Ah… I’m sorry…”(Mei)

“Do not blame Mei too much, Ellie, it’s not a that bad.”(s.h.i.+n)

“s.h.i.+n-san! This is because of you!”(Ellie)

“Huh… Me?”(s.h.i.+n)

“This fuss is surely made by s.h.i.+n”(Ellie)

“Ellie could you treat me better than that?”(s.h.i.+n)

“Huh?! But I’m already at my limit!”(Ellie)

In such circ.u.mstances, Ellie who cannot reinforce the body by magic, quickly reached the limit of her physical endurance.

By the way Mei was being held by my side.

“I have to be a little rude!”(Alice)

“Wait, Ali-Alice?”(Ellie)

“We can go like this!”(Alice)

Among the group, Alice, who is the smallest, except for Mei, picked up Ellie and started running while Ellie hugged her.

The scene of a little girl holding a princess in a princess carry is a strange sight… (Kaelpie: Changed girl to princess. Someone stop me.)

“Even so…”(Alice)

“What’s the matter?”(Ellie)

“It’s difficult with all the Poyopoyo, Poyopoyo!(Alice)

“It is not on purpose! Please don’t stumble!”(Ellie)

What are you doing…?

I feel that the number of people is increasing more and more.

How troublesome… What do I do?

“Walford, your mantle”

“Oh, that’s right! Optical camouflage!”

I forgot about that. You can use the optical camouflage that is given to the cloak!

“Start the optical camouflage when you enter that alley!”

“Roger that! ”

And where the group entered the alley…

“Oh, where did they go?”

“Such a foolish thing! They were just here!”

“To disappear like this… in that amount of time… they really are their grandchildren…”

“Oh, I thought I’d get a signature for you”

“Can’t be helped, let’s give up”

…We managed to escape…

Actually we started optical camouflage and stayed right in front of their eyes.

Because everyone would see us if we started to move while in optical camouflage.

“Is everyone there?”(s.h.i.+n)

“Yes”

“We did it”

“Ha, I my heart is racing!”

“It’s true, I know I can’t see it, but…”

“Now I understand the feelings of celebrities who are being chased…”(s.h.i.+n)

Everyone revealed their appearance after releasing optical camouflage.

Mei was looking down while I was talking about this impression.

“What’s wrong, Mei-chan”(s.h.i.+n)

“…s.h.i.+n onii-chan, I’m sorry…”(Mei)

Oh, apparently she seems to be feeling guilty about a little while ago.

Although she is from the royal family, she is still a small girl, so there must have been no situations so far that made her pay attention to her remarks.

Because of that it’s cruel to blame Mei.

I put down Mei, whom was I holding in my armpit, stroking her head and talking.

“You don’t have to worry about it being such a stir because I am my grandpa’s and grandma’s grandson”(s.h.i.+n)

“But it was me that told them about it…”(Mei)

“Okay, Mei has messed up today, didn’t she?”(s.h.i.+n)

“……Yes”(Mei)

“Well then, she won’t make the same mistake again?”(s.h.i.+n)

“I won’t do it again!”(Mei)

“Well, Mei grew by one stage, didn’t she?”(s.h.i.+n)
