Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

After Taika was scolded properly and I introduced everyone to the cute children and their mom Mave, the ladies just continued their talk with them and Rein also joined.

They couldn't understand their words but, surprisingly, Taika can.

And as she translated their words and dad conveyed them to the ladies, the group continued their fun talk while still standing in the garden.

Mom... well, I wanted to talk about the povpoi's food, but she was just lost in those cute creatures. I knew it would take a while for her to come out of her excited state.

So, I just told grandpa Zhan about the things we would need for them for a short time. Mom would arrange the main stock after she's done with her playing.

So, they were playing and my grandpa was done testing my first follower... second if we add Chry, but he still has a long way to go before he can actually be of any use to us.

"Eon." grandpa called me and I hurriedly moved before him. Zuroro was already looking straight into his eyes, still feeling as though he were looking 'up' at everyone here with a weak gaze.

Well, just the fact that he was looking grandpa in the eye was enough to make him laugh...

"Hohoho. You have picked up an interesting one. His senses are good, but I believe you have not told him about its flaws yet, right?"

He was someone that has almost achieved transcendence, so it was easy for him to understand how a skill worked.

And if we were talking about a skill that was directly related to senses, I knew it was just too easy for him to understand.

But he was right.

"Yes. He is a great worrier but I do not think anyone has ever taught him.

I will have to start from the ground and when the time comes, I know he will understand it on his own. He's a smart one, right~?" I smiled and looked at Zuroro, who just nervously looked at grandpa without any words.

The fact that his senses couldn't even understand the strength that grandpa possessed was probably too much for him to handle.

'He might have seen a purple-ranked creature in that forest, but grandpa is a different case altogether.'

A purple-ranked creature could never compare with a [King] ranked knight after all.

"Hohoho. Right! Excellent~! Ask Mel if you want his help with training. I believe the two of them will suit each other."

"That was certainly my thoughts. Thanks, grandpa~." I agreed with him and smiled enthusiastically. The two of them would really be a great help to each other and I knew that much.

He was excited to see a worrier with great potential like him and he had the power of evolution, so it was possible that he would grow into a draconic species in the future.

He was my first follower now, and as my follower and my strength, he was also a part of this family's strengths.

"Ah... right. Carla will like him, too. His Aura has two different natures. Maybe he will be a good dual partner for her, too."

"Hmmm. Certainly. But aren't you going to be her sparring partner? Do you think she will just let you go that simply?" he smirked while saying that. Not that I was going to abandon her.

"You know that I have many more people to spar with, right grandpa? I just meant she will have him when I'm not available."

"Yes, yes. I know you know, smart boy." then he laughed and started talking with Zuroro.

Yes, well... he had a skill that can let him communicate with creatures who had some deeper relation to water.

He was talking with him, grandma was talking with Morris, so there was nothing much for me to observe here aside from watching everyone...

And I just watched everyone smiling and playing until the ladies were finished with the povpoi children and Anna had taken up the task to be their tour guide of the house.

We would be living together from now on, so she had to show them their new home. And my dear aunts, Zoe, and Taika were also going with her.

My lovely Anna had thanked me many times to bring such adorable friends, and the others were the same. They were happy, and so were Mave and the children.

So, they went on their home tour. Dad said bye and went to prepare lunch. Grandpa led Zuroro to the backyard training grounds, and Rein said her sad bye and went with grandma to discuss some important things with Morris.

So now, only mom and I were left there. And we also had something serious to talk about, so mom nodded at me with a smile and we went to her office.

'It was time for some good scolding and important mom talk, after all.'

[[ I'm here master... fighting! ]]

***

"Wounds?"

"9 big cuts, 22 small scratches, 6 bone fractures, 2 serious injuries. Nothing much."

"You ungrateful child... this isn't much?!" she shouted and hit my head with an angry but worried expression.

It may be only small wounds to me, but she knew it was enough to kill a person. But she also understood they were not much for me now. I was strong, after all. So, she just sighed and continued...

"Dungeon? I don't think so from the way you brought back amazing creatures like them. And a big name like Morris the corrupted wouldn't stay in some normal dungeon. Hmm... a tomb?"

She was probably some of the smartest people I knew, and her analyzing skills were just as amazing.

She deduced that the place we went to wasn't just some simple dungeon, just from the fact that we brought back such 'intelligent' creatures with us.

Naturally, dungeons were a different and special place after all.

"Yes... it was a tomb. And have you heard about the ancient Medhel people who are believed to have lived in the eastern part of the continent?"

Her eyes widened in shock as soon as she heard that and shouted with a surprised voice, "The medical geniuses?!"

Of course, she knew about them... they were somewhat famous people mentioned in some important history books of the empire.

"Yes, so... there was this important figure among the earlier chiefs of their people, and the tomb belonged to him and his wife. The passage to this tomb was surprisingly a stable boundary in the deeper forest in Rein's backyard.

I already told duke about the important things and he entrusted me with the old book containing the wisdom of those people. I will need your help when I'm done with translation and editing."

She was speechless right now... and there were genuinely no words coming to her mind so she just set back down.

"Eon... Eon... my good boy Eon..." she mumbled under her breath and tried to calm herself down.

The value of what I was talking about was astronomical in itself, but she also understood that this newly discovered old knowledge had to be passed to the appropriate people or else there could be backlash.

Still, the one who has the upper hand in the distribution would be her and the pricing of such grand information would naturally be beyond normal understanding...

"H-how much did you promise, uncle?" she asked in a shaky but excitement-filled voice.

"65%."

"What?!"

And just like that, all the excitement was gone and only shock remained.

"Why?! You could have very well gone down to fifty percent! How-"

Her sudden shock and anger were reasonable. I… we were the ones to discover, explore, and clear the whole tomb after all.

She also understood that I had great data on the whole of the tomb, the boundary, its location, and the other factors on the other side of the boundary.

It would be just foolish to give up sixty-five percent of the share of such grand information of the past just because the book obtained from the tomb was located on their land.

Not at least when it was an artifact that I can take out and negotiate over.

I was also going to practically translate and sort it out for them for free at that rate.

Not only was it a loss on my side, but also something that a merchant like her couldn't understand... well, I already knew this would happen.

"Mom... the book on medicine wasn't the only thing there that gave the glimpse of the past," I said with a warm smile on my face that calmed her down.

She knew this simple-looking smile and from those words; she understood something important was coming...

"The tomb we found, the main chamber of the coffins, was made of silver and gold.

The walls were made of very high-quality silver and they were fully covered with words made of gold.

Though the main room was damaged during our fight with the evil spirit of the man I told you about, I already had everything memorized. And what I found in those simple, long words was far more fascinating than this medical knowledge for me...

See for yourself." There was a white light covering my hand as I said that and I knew she understood most things by now, so she just grabbed my hand without hesitation.

I was using the Solnova spell (: Vision sharing) that Rein and I used frequently to show her the tomb.

And as I showed her the tomb and the walls, I explained the contents of those walls.

It was an epic, but this epic itself briefly contained the knowledge of history, society, culture, magic, alchemy, surgical procedures, as well as many such aspects of that time.

And, when presented before the right people, they wouldn't even hesitate to give a fortune for a piece of such amazing knowledge.

"So, I have the full rights to publish this whole epic. He is a smart person, but still, we agreed on thirty-seventy shares for the information on the walls 'aside from' the epic.

So, I will probably be the publisher of an honorable work of all the known history."

I was still smiling, and now she had a bewildered smile on her face.

"Y-you tricked your own future grandfather-in-law, didn't you?!" She was saying that, but there was an absurd smile on her face right now.

The most valuable thing in this whole of our expedition, the grand epic on those walls... I had the right to that one thing that anyone on this whole continent would be interested in.

And from anyone, we were talking about a commoner teenage girl to the empire's princes and princesses.

It was a great story and as a merchant who had a deep knowledge of the flow of money; she knew the long-term profit I would get along with the praise and honor would be astronomical~!

Still, tricking Rein's grandpa? Nah...

"Tricking would be a bad word, mama. I just asked for the gift and he gave it to me with a smile~. Isn't he the best~?" I smiled brightly while saying this and... she burst into laughter.

"Ptff- hahaha! Right. It's a gift~. You really are quite something, baby~. Amazing~! Mama loves youuuuuu!" She shouted, stood up from her place, and hugged me with that same cheerful smile.

pAnD a(-)n0ve1.com I would be happy with what I do, and I would naturally publish this epic after some simplification through her publishing house, so the 'white' profit she would make would be just as amazing.

Not just that, she loved reading, so maybe after Rein, she would be the second one to read this amazing piece of art. She was happy just from that much, but the fact that people would praise me, her dear son, was the most exhilarating for her.

She was happy, and this cheerful smile continued till she suddenly remembered the great lot of work she had pending.

She was waiting since the early morning for my return and now she had to work faster to finish the piles of paperwork on her desk.

"Eon~. Won't you help mama?" She cheerfully asked, and she knew I still remembered that I had to work for her for a month. Still... I didn't think I would have to start as soon as I come back.

"Haaa... bad mom." I set back down and she handed me a pen. I knew just from that particular smile that I had no choice.

So, we just started the work, and I waited till someone came to tell us that it was lunchtime.

...

"You know about the next month's event at our auction house, right?"

"Um-hmm. I'm looking forward to seeing the greatest auction house in the capital and the special things you have prepared."

"Yes~. So, you will be helping me prepare for it starting tomorrow~. Elle too."

"...do we have, like, a break time or weekend?"

"You want one?"

"Yes... well, we will need the next weekend. We have to do something important."

"UwU. My baby has another date~."

"Yes... a room cleaning date..."

"Hehe. You two sure do fun things~."

"Yes, fun thing-...?! No! Not anything like that!"

"Huhuhu."

A normal talk between the two of us and maybe, most of the things were now complete.

The next good event should now directly be the next week, so, putting aside my misery, let's just look forward to the cool collection Rein had made throughout her life.

'I am looking forward to the special things that even she wouldn't know about... hopefully, I find something fun there.'

We would be finding gold in a junkyard... no, an ancient artifact in a pile of grass would be better.
