Volume 3 Chapter 13: The power of composition Part 1

Translator: “Pink Tea” Editor: ”Ryunakama”

Around the time the sun started to rise, I left the inn to take a walk through the city streets.

Barely anyone was around since it was pretty early in the morning.

It seemed a little lonely, but with no one around, I could clearly observe the streets, it was a good view in its own right.

And I wasn’t the only one awake at such an hour—

「Mmm, I wonder when was the last time I got to enjoy your warmth early in the morning, What a pleasant awakening.」

There was also Daisy.

Clinging onto my shoulder she accompanied me on my stroll.

「Since the old days we were the only ones who would wake up at such a time.」

「Right. it seems like it’s a habit of yours to wake up at this time no matter the location. I also wasn’t the type to sleep for long.」

Saki and Berzelia weren’t good with waking up early, other heroes also weren’t the types to get up this early. Thus, in those days we often would walk together with just the two of us.

And while recalling those days I exchange words with Daisy.

「However, we wandered around the City of God Tree quite enough, and only a few shops are opened at this time.」

「It seems that the most prefer to start operating after the sun is already high since the shadow from the God Tree makes it harder to see your surroundings.」

「Eeh, now I see.」

Indeed, with such a huge tree there will be areas difficult for light to reach.

As Cecile said, the places with really small amounts of light are utilized for storehouses.

「Well, anyway, at least we grasped one of the special traits of this city. ……But everything is closed, what should we do?」

I already took a look around the city and checked the routes.

And the moment I thought that if we are to continue our walk, then I’d prefer to take it somewhere I’m yet to see—

「Ah, my friend. Then how about coming to my lab? It’s over there.」

Daisy says, sitting on my shoulder, while pointing towards the God Tree.

「Your lab? Ah, the one you talked about a while ago?」

「That’s right. I wanted you to see it. Since we have time now, I want to show it to you.」

「Sure. if that’s the case then I’d like to see it.」

●

And a few minutes after walking towards the God Tree under Daisy directions.

We finally reached a small isolated house built right next to the root of the God Tree.

「Is this your lab? That’s quite a peculiar location.」

「Yeah, a perfect place to collect stuff from the God Tree.」

While saying that Daisy touched the door to the lab.

Then, a sort of clicking noise was heard coming from inside, and the door opened.

「Now now, step inside, my friend.」

「Yeah. Then, I’ll be intruding.」

Coming inside, the place was overflowing with various chemicals, flasks, and equipment, however, the room was still tidy as everything inside was neatly organized.

There was also some machinery of unknown purpose.

「Welcome, dear friend. To my laboratory. The place is cramped but make yourself at ease. Here is a chair.」

Daisy said, spreading her hands while sitting atop of a round chair in the middle of the room.

「Yeah, I’ll take you up on that offer. But well, what can I say, no matter where you end up, you manage to set up a laboratory-like room.」

I recall how during the war with the Demon Lord she also would use abandoned buildings to set up similar work rooms.

「Yup. This arrangement is the easiest for me to work in. Creating a proper environment first is my approach. ……Is it uncomfortable?」

「No, not at all. Quite the contrary, I think it’s a nice place.」

When I said so, Daisy’s expression turned into a delighted smile.

「Fufu, it’s pretty inspiring to hear that from you.」

With those words, Daisy jumped over onto my shoulder.

She seems more enthusiastic than before.

Recalling that when she jumped onto my shoulder in such high spirits she usually wants to get patted, I gently brush her. Then, she grew even more ecstatic and started rolling around.

……This feels quite nostalgic.

However, previously I was clad in armor and wore that helmet, so it felt like we had more of a distance between us. Now we had none of that, a welcome change.

And as we engaged in skinship while I had those thoughts—

*Knock knock*

A knock on the door. And—

「Daisy-dono. Are you there?」

Sidonius’ voice sounded.

To which Daisy raised her own voice, letting him know that she was inside.

「I am, come in.」

「Then, excuse me.」

With those words, Sidonius, the knight order’s captain, entered the room. Additionally, behind him was an armored man and a woman in a white robe.

And as I was wondering who they might be, the captain, noticing me, spoke first—

「Oh, Axel-dono also was here? Thank you very much for yesterday.」

And then he bowed.

「Same here, I enjoyed that delicious restaurant where you took us.」

「No no. Sorry for being able to repay you only with that much of my time. ……Yesterday, I met with the head of Magic Science guild, Moka-san, and she was insisting that she wants to thank you personally. So I’ll be asking for another dinner with you.」

「At that time I’ll accompany you. ……So, what did the captain and your companions come here for? You seem to have brought a few with you.」

Those with him are probably a knight and a researcher. What business might they have, coming to see Daisy together with him, wondering so I asked, then—

「Ah, this is, well. they brought today’s order list for Daisy-dono. It’s a knight from our《Paladin》unit and this person is from the group of《Advanced Pharmacologists》from the Magic Science guild that continues their research on the lower floor.」

Sidonius said while looking towards the knight and then the woman in a white robe.

Then, Daisy replied with a nod.

「Yeah, the usual fellows. Got it. I’ll read it, put them on that table.」

「Yes. Thank you, hero of training-sama. This is the letter of order from the order.」

「And this is from the Magic Science guild, Daisy-sama.」

Being told so by Daisy, the knight and the woman in white pulled out bundles of papers from pockets and put them on the table.

Then, Daisy read, flipping through them.

From what I managed to see, a few articles were listed there, like magic stone infused ingots, antidotes and so on—

「Letters of order are meant for ordering goods, right? They are relaying them to you instead of some shop?」

When asked, Sidonius was the first to reply.

「Yes. Basically, among the equipment, that the order uses to collect materials at the base of the tree, and materials or parts that required for research by the guild at the top of the tree, there are some that you can’t procure in the city. For the most part, we would have those supplies in the storehouse district.」

Due to the influence of the God Tree, the city had places that barely got any sunlight all day long, which they utilized for the storehouse area. Not so long ago Cecile was saying something of that sort.

「That district that uses all of the shadow area generated by the tree? I heard no one lives there.」

「Right. Currently, the knight order is using it as their base of operations, normally the order would be forwarded there.」

「But before that, Daisy checks it? But, why?」

The one to answer was Daisy, as she read through the letters of order.

「Well, that’s because it’s quite far from here, my friend. If you keep running back and forth for the messages, then for items delivery, won’t it be a waste of time? So I suggested that if it’s something that can be easily manufactured or an important material that I can make, then it would be more effective if they came to me.」

Sidonius wryly smiled.

「Yes…… Not only do you shine in other areas, but you even do something like this, you are really a lifesaver…… The storehouses are also pretty huge, finding a specific item takes time. And the stock in the nearby storehouses, from which it was easy to carry things out, is starting to run low.」

「I see. That huge, huh.」

「Just as the God Tree, its shadow is also colossal. Though with that stable temperature it’s ideal for the storehouses. ……Well, for the last month the reserves of the storehouse district are dissipating. So Daisy-dono’s suggestion to 『Make』some of the much-needed items is very appreciated.」

Said the captain while looking at Daisy.

The woman in white, that seemed vaguely familiar, nodded in agreement.

Looks like Daisy is a real lifesaver to them.

「Properly repaying the trust put onto me is my principle after all. If it will contribute to finding a way to heal the tree, then I surely will assist.」

The eyes of the woman in white turned wet with tears upon hearing those words.

「Thank you… Since you started your work after putting a laboratory here, the poison analysis speed increased by about 50 percent. You really saved us from an absolutely hopeless situation. And are also doing everything so fast, even building your own lab.」

「This lab was made by merely deconstructing and reassembling of the equipment that was already there. So I didn’t do anything that amazing. Even my research was based on already pre-existing data from work from the guild.」

Daisy said with a smile, but the woman in white shook her head.

「Being able to advance from there is amazing, Daisy-sama. If I were to say more, our speed actually increased even more thanks to the previous massive delivery from Axel-sama. Apparently, our speed now almost doubled. You two are our saviors.」

「Not to repeat after Daisy, but I merely transported the goods.」

I think it’s just a little extra to what Sidonius was already doing on a daily basis.

And as I thought so, I noticed that now Sidonius was shaking his head.

「No, Axel-dono. It’s not such a trivial matter. Without materials, all of the work would stagnate, and delays in supply will also affect morale.」
