From The Strongest Job of Dragon Knight, To The Beginner Job Carrier, Somehow, The Heroes are Depending on Me - Volume 3 Chapter 9

Volume 3 Chapter 9: Carrier inside God Tree

Translator: “Pink Tea” Editor: ”Ryunakama”

I watched as carrier Axel stuffed the baggage, provisions, daily necessities, medical supplies and other everyday commodities inside his bag.

「Is this everything?」

「Y-Yes, that’s all of it.」

Yes. All of the goods they planned to deliver so the people on the upper floors will be able to last for a while, already were inside the bag. Furthermore—

「I still have plenty of room. It’d be nice if you bring anything else you’d like me to transport.」

I stared at Axel, after he said such a thing.

「Eeh……Mmm? You still have room?」

「Yup. I think I can take at least three times this much. So I think we can get there everything you planned to carry in several trips.」

Therefore, he had his knights bring even more luggage, but—

「It really went in……」

「It’s not a mere one day supply…… That’s what we planned to carry over a whole week……」

As soon as the knights brought new luggage it disappeared inside of the transportation bag.

「No way, it’s this big……」

And as I exclaimed in surprise along with my subordinates, Cecile said to me—

「Told you, didn’t I. Axel-san is an amazing carrier!」

「Ah, yeah, indeed……」

Being told that by my daughter and witnessing the sight in front of my eyes, I weakly nodded.

To be honest, until now I was very uneasy about the idea of putting a request to Axel-san.

But it’s also the truth that in this harsh situation, his kind and appealing proposal made me want to cling to it right away. I wanted to agree even if it were preposterous. However—

……Axel-san is an important guest.

There are all kinds of rumors going around the one known as a flying carrier.

How he mows down robbers and beasts, moves with a speed beyond human perception, amazing enough to transport a whole house, a whole variety of them. But all of them uniformly tell of his excellence.

Yet, even so, I couldn’t agree to his proposal right away.

Rumors are not an accurate source of information. Getting influenced by them and losing the life of our important guest and the person I respect is not something I’d want to do. After all, the ability scores of a mere carrier are by no means high.

Therefore, I resolved to request this of him counting on support from the heroes in case something goes wrong.

……However, seeing this abnormally spacious bag……

I now was overflowing with hope and something similar to relief, maybe he is indeed a carrier completely out of the norm, that will be able to carry out this request without a hitch.

And while I looked at Axel with such thoughts—

「I just have to hand this over to the staff of the magic science guild on the other side of the passage?」

He asked, pointing above.

「Ye-yes. Right after you get out of this passage you should see the top of the magic science guild that should come to receive the luggage. They usually wear a white robe so you can use that to recognize them and hand over the package. 」

Replying with roger that, Axel put the transportation bag on his shoulder.

「Then, let’s get moving. Berzelia, Saki. Some wood might come falling, please deal with that.」

「Okay, Master.」

「Yes, leave it to us. And you can also leave yourself to me if by in the one in a millionth chance you will come falling. Should I catch you in a hug, or maybe I should get rid of some cloth and take you in my hands……」

「In such a case it would be a great help if you just act normally.」

「My friend! Can I come with you?! I’ll stick to your chest and will try not to hinder your movements. I’d like to see you on your new job up close!」

「Is that so? Then, well, get over here.」

And while Axel had such an exchange with the heroes, he shook his arms and legs and started warming up.

He is about to head out. But before that, there is something that I’d like to confirm.

「Ah. Before you go, one moment. I lightly explained before, but the pathway on the inner wall still has some durability, so when things get dangerous, get away from the rope ladder and jump either on it or the slope.」

「Eh? Ah, yeah. When I touched the surface of the wall on the very bottom I also thought that some parts should have enough durability left.」

「Right. Though half of it can’t be used after all, so we are taking quite a bit of damage.」

「I see…… But with this much still being usable, I will be able to finish much faster than expected.」

「……?」

Axel said, putting Daisy in his bosom.

Does he mean that it will allow him to easily avoid falling timber? The meaning of his words seemed to elude me, but I didn’t care that much since, in the end, it meant faster completion of the request. And while I thought that he should make all the necessary preparations to safely make it there, Axel said to me.

「So, can I go now?」

「Yes. No problem…… Ah, no, there is another thing. Though I notified them with an emergency telepathy that I will send someone else instead of myself, I also should ask someone from up there to check the ladder. To make sure that it’s safe I will contact them once again……」

「Hm? You don’t have to. I will climb without using the ladder.」

「Eh?」

I tilted my head upon hearing those words.

Climb without using the ladder? What does that mean? And when I was about to say that I can’t make sense of that sentence—

「Then, I’ll be going.」

Before I could say anything, he flew.

「Eh……?」

In the blink of an eye, he was already a few meters in the air, flying with great momentum. Additionally—

「Yeah. As I thought, the parts that appear fine can be used after all. This should make it quick.」

His jump didn’t stop and he kept gaining height, then he made another one, and went even higher.

「……?! He is jumping off those unstable footholds……? Is that even possible……?!」

As I exclaimed in surprise without thinking, Axel replied, halting on one of the steps.

「Well, they are unstable, but I can tell how brittle they are by looking. And even if they ended up being more fragile than they seemed, if I adjust my strength properly it will work out somehow.」

Axel said as he kept jumping.

Indeed, the places that he used should’ve taken a considerable impact, but none of them crumbled. It looks like he actually selects sturdy parts.

And from time to time he uses not just the legs but his hands as well to adjust the posture. His movements showed that he is used to dealing with fragile footing. And—

……And all of his movements were incredibly fast………?!

Even though he seems to carefully choose his footing, but in the blink of an eye his figure turned to nothing but a speck, and only his voice could be heard.

「Then, I’ll be going to the top.」

「Everyone, see ya later.」

And almost like he was flying, Axel climbed to the upper part of the God Tree, taking Daisy with him.
