Book 10: Chapter 36: Hero and H&T Corporation
Im okay with that, Luna. Besides, they look famished. If its Danna-sama, he will definitely extend help if he happens to see someone troubled.
Thank you so much, Sitri!... So, its decided then, lets barter the bread. Which ones do you like?
Sitri agreed with the brooch and bread trade, so Luna took Akari to a nearby bench and let her choose which one she wanted.
Can I have two of this, then this and this, too?
Of course. Here you go.
Luna brought an extra bag, so she put the bread that Akari pointed inside then handed it to her.
Thank you so much! Then, please have these.
Yes! Its really gorgeous. Ill treasure it.
After chatting for a while, Akari parted ways with Luna and Sitri.
Sitri was a demon, and she was the former Demon King, to boot.
She had been buffed by Halt, so she was keeping mana in an amount that was far more tremendous than what she had when she had been the Demon King.
Halt had given Sitri a tool that could suppress her mana in order for her to be able to lead a normal life within the academys premises.
Sitri herself had perfect control over her mana thanks to Halt strengthening her.
Thanks to Sitris perfect control of mana and Halts magical tool, not a single soul suspected that her mana was already beyond what was possessed by Demon Kings.
Even Tet, a deity from the other world, was deceived.
The thought that the Demon King would be lurking in this place never crossed Akaris mind at all, so even the skill <Extreme Intuition> didnt function.
In the first place, Halt had already erased the protection that the Evil God bestowed on Sitri.
Thus, Sitri was not the Demon King.
Akari came to this world to defeat the Demon King, but the Demon King she was supposed to slay no longer existed anywhere.
This tastes heavenly!! (Tet)
Yup! Its yummy. (Akari)
Akari and Tet could no longer bear their hunger, so as soon as they parted with Luna and Sitri, they rushed to the nearby plaza. They sat on the lawn and gobbled up the bread that they exchanged for the brooch.
I gave the brooch away, butWill Luna be alright?
Akari was worried that Luna might be in trouble, given that Akari handed her an item that was supposedly above World Grade level.
She was so famished that she couldnt think straight back then, but she finally came to her senses after eating some bread.
Once she thought about it again, she couldnt help but feel anxious that she handed over an item that might be a powerful piece of equipment without even explaining things.
Dont worry about it. Akari made that item, after all. Its not something that will harm other people.
Indeed, it was as Tet said. Granted, Akari made the items without so much as a thought for their effects, but she had unwittingly crafted accessories all of them that were of the [Protection] type, and they also belonged to the Legend class of rarity.
The item would automatically launch a magical spell that would protect the owner once that person was in danger.
Wearing them might save the owners life, but they wouldnt hurt anyone in the process.
Akari felt a little relieved after Tet explained it to her.
This bread pouchLook closely, H&T Corporation is written beneath the bakerys brand logo.
Akari noticed as they ate their way through the four pieces of bread that she exchanged for the brooch.
H&T Corporation had opened that bakery.
What does that mean?
It means there might be more delicious bread in our destination!
Akari plan was to visit the H&T Corporation headquarters so that she could sell the items she made.
However, if the bakery was connected to H&T Corporation, then it would be no wonder if they could obtain more delicious food just like earlier.
Eh. A-Are you serious!?
Yup!
Akari was confident.
The thought of Perhaps had activated her <Extreme Intuition> skill.
It was the first time Akari used this <Extreme Intuition> skill since coming into this world.
Akari and Tet finally reached the royal capital of Glendale.
Now that she could finally use her <Extreme Intuition> she could now grasp whether the area was full, and thus, she could now pinpoint the deserted locations and teleport there. Because of that, she was able to teleport from the magical academy to the royal capital.
Is it here?
Thanks to the effects of <Skill Master>, the accuracy and precision of her Extreme Intuition was steadily improving at an unbelievable pace.
She could even pinpoint the exact location of her destination H&T Corporation in this case even without Tets guidance.
By the way, Tets tummy was full of bread, so she dozed off in Akaris arms.
After walking for a while, Akari discovered a building with the logo of H&T Corporation written in huge letters.
H-Here!?
The building standing in front of them was around ten times larger than the building of the Manufacturing Guild of Apristos.
Akari felt a bit anxious because Tet was sleeping, but she could smell the fragrant aroma wafting from inside the building.
However, her anticipation was greater than her fear as she stepped inside the headquarters of the H&T Corporation.
The main branch was packed with people inside.
Not only humans, but various races such as elves, beastkin, dwarves and others were walking around the area.
It was a four-story building, and there were many kiosks and retail shops selling specialty products from around the world on the ground floor where Akari was.
I-Its like a department store basement
It was just as Akari subconsciously muttered the layout was indeed similar to that of a department store basement. The products being sold were famous specialty products, so it could also be considered as a product fair.
Food wasnt the only product category available, though. Equipment, weapons, armor and restorative items such as medicines were also being sold.
This was actually a system that Tina came up with when she heard Halt mention the department stores in his former world, and she had developed it for several years.
The H&T Corporation headquarters was originally a purchasing and procurement department in charge of gathering commodities. It wasnt involved in managing the distribution of goods worldwide.
However, it became the flagship store once Tina adopted the idea behind the department basement store system.
Even so, Akaris target wasnt found on the first floor.
The ground floor also had its own purchasing and trading counter, and many adventurers and merchants were gathered there, but she wouldnt be able to sell her items here.
Akari noticed this thanks to her extreme intuition.
And so, she decided to go further into the building.
Rare items that couldnt be sold on the first floor were generally sold on the second floor.
Aristocrats were usually received in the reception rooms of the second floor when they wished to bring something, but
Akari also ignored the second floor.
She had the feeling that she wouldnt be able to sell her items here, either.
Only employees of the corporation were allowed entry to the upper floors from this point. Guards were stationed in order to prevent ordinary folks from trespassing.
However, Akari managed to sneak into the third floor just when the guards werent looking. The timing was perfect, because the guards were changing shifts.
Akari passed through the third floor and climbed to the fourth floor. She continued walking along a long, narrow corridor, until she reached the innermost room of the floor.
Her extreme intuition had been working without her needing to control it, so she reached this place without thinking about it.
Chairmans Office was written on the nameplate of the room in front of her.
Ch-Chairmans office? T-This isnt the place, right?
Akari was about to turn back, when the door of the room opened.
Are you just going back after coming all the way here?
A beautiful Half-Elf woman with black hair and onyx eyes opened the door, smiling as she stood there.
