A NEET’s Guide to the Parallel World: Healer, the Strongest Cheat?

Chapter 26: part 2 - Nem

Patreon in case you suddenly feel like a pledge lol,

We left Sierras mansion soon after breakfast. Due to Sierras kindness we didnt pay for anything although we were allowed to stay there. However we should really take a request and earn some money soon, I have no idea when we will be leaving this country.

You thought I was making her call me that? No way!

I dont know what they thought of me but until I denied it Toa and Sierra seemed to think I had been forcing Nem to call me master. By the time I had cleared away the suspicion the four of us arrived in front of the guild.

Well if it isnt Nem.

Ah! Sharon is here!

You guys are friends with Nem?

Hes my master.

Master? Whats going on here?

Not again..

Sharon eyed me with contempt. This time instead of me having to explain Sierra did so for me and quickly cleared away the suspicion.

I see, thats what I thought it was.

She blatantly lied, I saw the contempt earlier Sharon you cant hide that.

Nem comes to the shop often so Sharon knows her very well. It seems Nems friend that the sister referred to was Sharon.

Nem, What happened to your arm!?

Sharon noticed the burn on Nems arm.

I see Oh thats terrible, why if they were here Id beat them to a bloody pulp!

Sharon made a stern expression at Sierras explanation a combination of sadness and anger.

You guys saved her right. You have my thanks as well. Sharon couldnt hide her fury towards the slave merchants. Nem is like a daughter to me.

Sharon grinned at me.

But to think the day I would give my daughter away would arrive so soon. Protect her ya hear? Youre Nems chosen master.

I dont get it, what is this person saying.

That look tells me, you dont understand the meaning behind Nems words.

The meaning? What are you talking about?

Well, its ok if you dont get it yet, so Ill say just one thing. You better not make her cry.

Sharon shoved her finger in my face as she said this.

Sierra I was looking for you.

A strange man appeared. He had a dandy like mustache, a monocle in his left eye and was wearing a white silk hat. To top it off he wore a flashy white coat.

Edward, youre still going out in public like that.

This way no one thinks that I am a white knight. Such clothes are my everyday wear, I always dress like this. More importantly, I have brought this from Reinhardt.

Without explanation the man gives Sierra a rolled up piece of paper tied closed with a string.

Oh and who might your friends be?

Masamune-dono, Toa-dono and this is Nem-dono.

She didnt introduce Sharon but the man bowed to her, it seemed that they were acquainted.

Youre the rumored. Pardon me, I am Edward Scotch. Please forgive my late introduction.

By the way Edward. What is this?

Its a request, isnt it written there?

Ah! This is the kings!?

Apparently a basilisk has appeared. In the barn of Borris, a friend of his majesty.

Whats a basilisk?

I was wondering that but it seemed Toa didnt know either.

Nem knows! Its a big snake!

A big snake?

As expected of Nem-dono youre very intelligent. Yes a basilisk is a large snake.

The king said that you should go.

Whats going on? Why me?

I do not know. I was just ordered to hand it over to you.

Thats perfect! Sierra go kill that basilisk!

Even Sharon, Why?

Im running short on the basilisks tear glands, venom sack, and large fangs. It would be helpful if you could collect those once you kill it.

Sierra seemed reluctant a worried expression on her face.

Sierra, Ill go with you. Toa will as well right?

If Masamune is going I dont have a problem with it.

You guys, Im sorry to make you do this.

Dont worry about it. Were free and we owe you a favor anyway.

If youre going, take Nem as well.

Nem!? No way, were going to fight a large snake and Nem is tiny!

Its extremely dangerous. I dont know what type of monster a basilisk is but its a snake. What happens if she gets bit?

Master are you going to leave Nem behind? Nem wants to be useful to master.

Even if you say that, were going to fight a monster.

If its me whatever happens I can just quickly heal it with my healing magic. But to take a small child along is insane! Even if I can just heal whatever happens it doesnt make it any less dangerous.

Just take her with you. Dont worry, shes stronger than you are healer boy.

Nem is strong? Seriously?

Its a famous story around here. If you think Im kidding take her with you.

Where exactly is this confidence coming from? If she was strong she wouldnt have been captured by a slave merchant.

Ahh fine, I get it. But just this once.

I reluctantly accepted.

If you like the translation so far consider taking a pledge on Patreon or pledge your worst enemy, or even mild enemies, I wont discriminate. Promise XD.
