Chapter 060
"I'm so tired..."
"Please take a good rest tomorrow."
Mom carefully massages Dad's calves, who is lying exhausted on the sofa. On the way back from the Suichu village, we stopped at a glass workshop to experience glass blowing and enter the Kannon statue to enjoy the magnificent view. We were able to return home without any trouble.
However, we made a detour on the way and got caught in the evening traffic, which left dad, who was the driver, exhausted. Although he had lunch and dinner and rested, he collapsed as soon as he got home.
"Dad, you've done well. I'm going to get my driver's license too, so I'll be able to take over."
"Thank you. But it'll be four years at the earliest."
I can't get my driver's license until I am 18, so it's still a long way off. Dad doesn't seem to want Mom to get her license, so I want him to wait until then.
Previously, when Mom said she was thinking about getting a license, Dad stopped her with all his might, so there must be some reason. I tried to ask Dad, but he looked off into the distance and went silent, so I couldn't ask.
"Oh yeah, I want to go to Tokyo for a few days during the summer break. Is that okay?"
"Going to Tokyo? Is there something going on?"
"Onii-chan, you're not going to go to a doujinshi sale by yourself!"
Mai, exhausted from the excitement of the trip, joined the conversation. In this world, a large-scale sale is held twice a year, but that's not my purpose.
"No. I want to get the shell of a drop turtle and have it processed into a shield. There's probably no one in Saitama who has the skill to process dropped items."
The processing of weapons from materials obtained in dungeons is basically done by those with the appropriate skills. Cooking meat or processing easy-to-process materials can be done without skills, but to process hard shells, you need to ask someone with the skills.
"In that case, you have no choice but to go to Tokyo. How many days do you plan to take?"
"It seems to be quite hard to find, but there doesn't seem to be anyone hunting for it, so I can't say for sure. I'm thinking of aiming for a week to ten days."
In reality, since I've already secured the actual item, it will only take the number of days necessary to process it, but if I suddenly brought the shell over, people would wonder where I brought it from, so I'll make it look like I'm going to go into the local dungeon and hunt for turtles.
I'm planning to say it took three or four days to appear, and I'm thinking it will take a week to process it. But I can't say that.
"I see. Do you have a place to stay?"
"I looked it up online, and it seems there are cheap hotels for explorers. I'll stay there."
I replied, but that was a big lie. I also wanted to experience camping inside the dungeon. That said, I'll be staying in the [Lost House], so it's not really camping at all.
"I see. I'm a little worried, but I'm sure Yu will be fine. When do you plan to go?"
"I haven't been in a dungeon for a while, so I'm going to dive into the usual dungeon tomorrow to get my senses back. If nothing happens, I'll probably start the day after tomorrow."
"Mm, I can't believe I can't see you for over a week..."
Mai is sulking, but please understand. Next year she will be a middle school student, and although it will be sad, she needs to let go of me a little. If I were told "Don't wash your underwear with mine!" I'd be endlessly depressed, so it's best to do it in moderation.
"My skills are more effective when I have a variety of weapons and armor. I want to get them little by little."
I'll negotiate with the army after I've equipped myself and made some achievements. I have to work hard to keep my promise to the goddess-sama.
