Going Back and Forth Between Earth and The Other World with Space Time Magic

Ah! Golden Armored Rondo!!

Oi!Dont remember a person by his armor. You had been wearing your armor and your face was hidden all the while at that time, right? Im a famous person so it cant be helped.

Seiji-sama, Rondo-sama is the heir ofWarstar familywho governs the Nippo town. Nippo town where the fighting competition was held? You participated in the towns competition which your family governs?

Such a thing doesnt matter, didnt you come here to report the food theft? That reminds me, thats right.

I told Rondo about the food theft.

Unh, its hard to suddenly believe that. N? Is it common for the people from the Slums to commit a crime?

The crimes modus operandi was too brilliant. Almost all of the troops of us aristocrats gathered in Shiju town were robbed of almost all the food simultaneously. That was despite our strict security.

Well, true, such a large-scale and systematic crime was difficult to do with only the people from the Slums.

Its not that I doubt you but do you have any evidence?

Okay, Ill show you evidence.

I showed the video recordings of theTracking beaconattached to the bag of wheat flour to Rondo.

Whats this magic? Please keep this a secret. O-, Ou.

I closed the video after the perpetrators reverted back to orc form

An orc!?People turned into orcs! Its the opposite, the orc disguised themselves as people. W-, What!?

When I explained its connection withMagic stone of Human transformation, Rondo frowned

I understand that the orcs are plotting something. But the problem is how was the information about the security leaked to the orcs? This crime was evidently poked at the gap of the security.

What about the peoplewho knew the information about the security? The information about the security were discussed amongst the gathered aristocrats. If it was leaked then someone eavesdropped on the discussion. Or, the participants spilled the information.

What!? Are you saying that theres a traitor amongst the aristocrats? Rondo, do you think there is none?

There might be

Amongst the aristocrats troops, is there any unit whose food wasnt stolen? No, all the campaigning aristocrats troops have had their food stolen.

N? Something feels wrong. What is it, I wonder?

Putting the perpetrators aside. I know where the food is hidden, shall we take the food back for the time being?

Shinju town is govern byAzos Family, even if we go and take it back, we need to get permission from the Azos family.

An aristocrat is an aristocrat, quite troublesome.

***

We were taken to the Azos Familys mansion by Rondo. But, this mansion smelled something like

Thanks to Rondo, we get through inside smoothly. We were able to meet the current head of the family.

The Azos Family head was a fat old man with sharp eyes.

It seems the rumor about you getting a hold of the information about the food theft is true, but are those the perpetrators? No, this person is the eye-witness. And this lady is Princess Elena Delaidos. Princess!?Please forgive my rudeness.

Somehow, there was something strange about this old mans gaze at Elena. For the sake of Elenas security, I removed Ayas tracking beacon and put it on this old man.

I explained the eye-witness report about the food theft and showed the video recordings of the beacon

Why cant you give the permission to search the Slums!Isnt it projected clearly that the perpetrators hid the food in the Slums warehouse. Its not guaranteed that the video recording magic is true, right?

What Seiji-sama said was the truth. I vouch for it. Its like this, Elena-sama. Even though Elena-sama is royalty, you have no formal authority. All the authority with regards to this towns politics was granted to me. Your wish to interfere is futile. You bastard, youre being rude towards Elena-sama. Thats rude.

Rondo and Azos started to confront each other.

In the end, we didnt manage to obtain permission to search the slums. We went back to Rondos tent.

Perchance, Azos was the one who spilled the information?

Probably, it surely is.

But, the other campaigning aristocrats and my troops couldnt move without permission. Shall Itake it back? What!?But, the enemy is a horde of orcs? Did you forget who won the championship at the fighting competition?

I seebut, can you get it back while avoiding as much commotion as possible? Yeahit would probably be alright at night. I see, you can easily sneak in at night, huh. Alright, Ill entrust this matter to you. Since Ill make necessary arrangements with other aristocrats, Ill leave it to you! Leave it to me.

We left Rondos tent and booked a room at the inn.

Seiji-sama, are you really going alone? Yes, because Ill only get the food back secretly without fighting this time. I understand, please be careful.

Because there was still a little time before evening, I retrieved the completed equipment at the weapon shop in Suga town.

Necklace of Lightning +4 (Mithril) Recovery staff +3 (Thousand years old Sakura) Necklace of recovery +3 (Mithril) Hair ornaments of Wind +1 Wind rod +1 Hair ornaments of Water +1 Water rod +1 Hair ornaments of Ice +1 Ice rod +1 Darkness rod +1

It has become a considerably luxurious collection.

Then, after waiting for the sun to set and the sky to darken, I went to the slums.

Although it would be effortless if I usedTeleportation, when I checked the warehouses surveillance video, I saw several orcs guarding it. There would be a possibility of being found out when I teleport. Inevitably, I had to useNight shadeand went towards the slums on foot.

But, this slum had an intense smell of a rotten fish. Its entrance was full of orcs. Well, I didnt get exposed so far.

Although Im usingNight shade, I was worried if I really wont get exposed. I moved sneakily as much as possible for me to not get caught. Finally, I arrived in front of the warehouse. But, the sizes of the lined up barracks-like buildings around this warehouse clearly looked out of place. On the contrary, the slums were possibly built around this warehouse.

I checked the warehouses surroundings but there wasnt something I can sneak into. Since it cant be helped, I waited for the guard to be changed and snuck in in that interval.

About 3 orcs stood guard inside the warehouse but I caught them off guard. I put the 3 orcs to sleep usingSleepand beheaded them, and put them away in the inventory.

I tinkered with the door of the warehouse in order for it to not be easily opened. I had the tracking beacon transferred to the warehouses door from the bag of flour. After that, I slowly stored all the food inside the warehouse to the inventory and returned usingTeleportation.

When I returned to the inn, Elena was still awake while rubbing her sleepy eyes.

Seiji-sama, welcome back. Are you alright? Youre still awake, Elena?Its fine if you have gone to sleep first. I wont go to sleep with such reasoning.

Since its already late, well deliver the food back tomorrow, lets now go to sleep. Yes.

Elena and I slept soundly on the double bed.

Huh?Somehow, arent I becoming unusually too familiar with Elena by sleeping together? Well ,whatever
