When I managed to completely copy everything down and took a breather, there was a knock on my door. When I opened it, the rest of the party was waiting outside. It looks like they finished designing the furniture they wanted as well.

We just finished the designs, so we wanted you to have a look at them first, Alan, Sharon declared as she handed me the papers.

Sharon is really good at drawing.

Cleria was acting all proud for some reason.

I didnt really need to inspect them, but it looks like the girls wanted me to anyway, so let me oblige. It looks like they also want to brag a bit.

They showed me the completed designs as well as the schematics of the different parts. They made the same type of documents I did.

The first one was a closet where you can hang up your clothes by using a hanger. Theres also a shelf at the bottom where you can put in your shoes.

The second one was a cabinet with several drawers for storing small items. One drawer was designed to have a lock function that could be unlocked via a key. They look pretty well-designed.

These look great. Well done, everyone.

Everyone gave their own opinions to come up with the designs, Sharon revealed.

If theyre this good, then Ill have to get Turk-san to make my share as well.

That would be best. Alan, lets hurry and hand these over now.

Cleria seems to want to hand the blueprints over as soon as possible. I already finished the magic tool designs myself, and its still three in the afternoon.

Okay. Lets get going then.

I wrote how many of each item should be made on the blueprints. We then left the inn.

The workshop of Turk-san wasnt all that far from the Adventurers Guild, so we reached it right away.

Good afternoon!

I immediately noticed Turk-san when we entered the workshop and gave a loud greeting amidst the sound of mallets striking wood.

Oh, its you, folks. Whats up?

Actually, we want to commission you to make new items apart from the furniture repair.

I then handed the magic tool and furniture blueprints to him.

This is

He scanned the blueprints with a professional gaze. After five minutes, he finished poring through all of them.

What should we do for the finishing touches?

Perhaps he means painting them or something.

Well leave that to you.

Were these designed by you, Alan?

These are my work, but those are hers.

Turks sharp gaze turned toward Sharon.

How impressive for someone so young. I dont know what you mean to do with the items you drew, Alan. But this closet and this cabinet are very well-designed.

Is that so? Thank you for the praise, sir, Sharon replied.

The other members, who thought up the designs with her, also looked happy.

We want to make this secured via lock and key. Can you make them? Sharon asked.

Yeah. No problem.

How much would these items cost? By the way, the deadline for these items is in 15 days and these ones would be 20 days.

I want the magic tool casings delivered earlier so I can finish the rest of the work on time.

These are pretty detailed designs, so these items would be easy to make. We can make these by the deadlines you set. No problem.

Turk-san laid the blueprints on top of a workbench and told us the price of each item. He may have already decided on the prices when he checked them out earlier.

Refrigeration magic tool 2000 Guineas Four items

Stove magic tool 500 Guineas Five items

Light magic tool 100 Guineas 50 items

Clothing closet 700 Guineas Five items

Cabinet 1000 Guineas Five items

All in all, the total cost was 25,000 Guineas. It turned out to be a pretty large sum.

So everything would be for 25,000 Guineas. However, we could use these closet and cabinet designs ourselves. If you allow us to have these designs, Ill give you a 3,000 Guinea discount.

Since Sharon and the others didnt have any objections, the final price ended up being 22,000 Guineas.

After our business at the workshop, we returned to the inn.

Come to think of it, Alan. Wouldnt the General Orc and Big Blue Serpents rewards be ready by now? Elna reminded.

Oh, right. I almost forgot. Weve been running around busily recently after all. Do you want to visit the guild to take a look?

And so, we went to the Adventurers Guild and headed straight for the counter. The guild wasnt as filled with people compared to the number during morning hours.

Please state your business, sir.

Were the B-ranked party Shining Star. We want to ask about the rewards from the other days.

Oh, Ive heard of those. Ill call the one in charge, so please wait for a moment.

The guild staff then withdrew to the back of the guild office. Apparently, the staff has been told to call their higher-ups once we come for a visit.

The receptionist came back with the guild master Kevin-san as well as one of the male staff we met before.

Sorry for the delay. We have a result regarding the matters from before. Can you come with us to the back for a bit?

Kevin-san led us to the private room we came to a few days back.

The price for the General Orc and Big Blue Serpent have been decided. The General Orc head is 210,000 Guineas while the serpent meat is 38,000 Guineas and the leather is 105,000 Guineas.

So thats a total of 353,000 Guineas huh. Thats a pretty hefty amount. But Im surprised theres a person whos willing to pay such an exorbitant price for the head of an ugly orc. But I guess the guild has already taken their share as well, so the actual price should be higher. I cant believe it.

I see. Understood.

You dont seem to be surprised. Normally, people would be shaken after hearing this sort of amount though

No, I actually am surprised. But Im surprised someone actually paid good money for an orcs severed head. Actually, I find it hard to believe such a person even exists.

I didnt mean it that way though Well, fine. Hey!

Kevin-san ordered the male staff to hand over the money to us. I counted the contents of the bag for formalitys sake.

Weve certainly received it.

Thank you for deciding to hand the items over to the guild this time. We will certainly take note of your valuable contributions.

Thank you very much. Were looking forward to working together more with you as well.

The receptionist then accompanied us out of the private room.

We managed to make quite a sum.

It is more than just a large sum. Ive been more or less influenced by your sense for wealth Alan, but this amount is an absolute fortune for commoners, Elna remarked.

Uh, I do get that you know.

On the way back from the guild, we passed by five seedy-looking men sneaking glances at us. They laughed vulgarly when we passed in front of them.

They then walked up to us and blocked the way. One of the men moved forward.

Hey, you! Youre hanging out with such fine-looking ladies, arent you? Can you share at least one of them with us?

His breath stinks of booze. It looks like hes pretty drunk.

I ignored them and tried going past, but my shoulder ended up being grabbed.

Hey, dont ignore us. Were even asking nicely you know?

Are you picking a fight? Sure, Ill play with you.

They were obviously picking a fight, but I always wanted to say those lines, man.

Remove that filthy hand of yours right this instant!

Selena shouted in anger and grabbed the hand of the punk who grabbed my shoulder. She then proceeded to take him down in a flashy manner.

Oww! Whats with you, woman!?

You should never have grabbed Alans shoulder with that filthy hand of yours.

Selena was raring for a fight as well.

Hey, hey. Whats the matter with you guys? You really picking a fight?

The other four men started approaching us as well.

Oh, its just that this guy was asking for a fight but tripped and fell down.

This is bad, It looks like a bone or twos broken. So how do you want to compensate him for this, huh!?

Are you asking for a fight as well? Its troublesome, so you can just come all at once.

Hah! Yer a brave one aint ya! We have five guys here. Ye sure yer up for it?

Im telling you to get over here already, you idiots.

Alan, please let me handle them. Theres no need for you to get your hands dirty. I alone am enough.

Selena, I also want to participate since they were just so rude to Alan. Theyre going to pay, Sharon declared.

Haa, it cant be helped.

Hey, they were picking a fight with me you know? Back down, you two.

Its you who needs to back down, Alan!

Ugh, fine.

Damn. I got swallowed up by the twos momentum and ended up really backing down. Well, I guess theyll be fine though.

We have to stop them Alan! Cleria exclaimed worriedly.

Its alright. They are both stronger than me in a straight-up fight you know.

Eh!? Really!?

Selena and Sharons combat levels were higher than my own after all. The combat level indicates our mastery over imperial martial arts. Those level 90 and above can already serve as senior instructors.

Most likely, the two of them raised their level inside the ships training room by fighting against each other and the training bots.

Imperial martial arts, or simply imperial arts, are a form of martial art that has been honed and passed down in the empire for thousands of years. These two, who have achieved certain mastery over it, will not be defeated by a mere five drunk men.

Hurry up and get over here, Selena taunted.

Hey! I aint holding back just cuz youre a girl!

You dont have to. Ugh. This is getting tiresome.

After Sharon sighed, she quickly closed in on the man nearest to her and slammed her fist on his solar plexus.

Hey, no fair!

Selena raised a voice of complaint and closed in on another man. She then grabbed the mans raised hand by the wrist, used it to pull his upper body downward, and slammed a knee onto his exposed face.

Sharon speedily approached another man, who was frozen in shock and casually gave him a right hook; hitting him squarely on the chin. She then hit another one with a magnificent spin kick.

The remaining guy, who watched each of his friends get defeated easily, was approached by Selena and finished off with a front kick to his stomach.

All of them were taken down and brought to unconsciousness in one hit.

Amazing! Cleria quipped.

Youre terrible for getting a head start on me, Sharon!

But they just wouldnt come, so I found it too troublesome and brought the fight to them.

There was already a sizable crowd forming. They must have noticed the commotion.

Thanks, you two. I ended up troubling you over something so trivial.

No, its our pleasure, Selena replied with a smile.

This is nothing, Sharon followed up.

They will get in the way of pedestrians if we left them like this, so lets move them over there.

We carried the passed out men to a corner of the street where they wont get in the way.

Yosh. Lets go back to the inn. It should be dinner time once we get back.

Yes, Alan.

On the way back, Cleria gushed about how awesome Selena and Sharon were and asked them to teach her. They made a promise to organize a training session along with Elna.

While we were drinking tea after having dinner, Cleria suddenly spoke up.

Alan, Ive been thinking, but wouldnt it be a good idea to postpone bandit hunting first and train in magic, swordsmanship, and martial arts first?

Oh? Yeah, sounds good. How about it, everyone?

I also want to practice magic and swordsmanship more, Sharon replied.

Me too, Selena seconded.

I as well, Elna answered next.

Its decided then. Ill also need some time to develop that new liquor and assemble the magic tools for use at our new Home. Its perfect timing.

And so, it was decided that I and the girls will act separately for a few days.

Cleria and the others will first focus on magic practice, so they planned to go inside the Sea of Trees in the mornings and hunt Gray Hounds. I objected to them not bringing me along at first, but they convinced me by saying stationary targets arent enough for practice, so I allowed them to do so while imploring that they should be careful and keep watch of their surroundings.

In the afternoon, they will go for swordsmanship and combat technique practice. They planned to do this schedule every day. They can use the square in front of our Home for the afternoon practice.

Now then. Ill have to finish making the blueprints Ill bring to the blacksmith workshop tomorrow. Even if I cant finish all the details, Ill at least note down the important points.

(Iris, theres no problem with the data we obtained from going around the blacksmith workshop, right?)

Yes, there is no problem. We can utilize the design we came up with the other day.

(Yosh. Please display the blueprints on a virtual screen and overlay them with the paper sheets.)

I then started tracing the blueprints that appeared on screen and transferred them to the paper sheets
