Chapter 133: I Looked Into the Future



Chapter 133: I Looked Into the Future

As night fell and the area became completely quiet, Michelle and I prepared for my use of Clairvoyance in the bedroom.

It was finally time for me to look into the future.

[Are you sure it’s going to be alright?]

[You’re being a worrywart, Michelle. This time won’t be like before. I’ve already drunk a bottle of ramune to improve my mana circulation, and I also have the Seiryu Ring that the Gnomes had given me. If I enhance my magic with a Stick Chocolate, I would surely be able to see the future.]

[But……]

[Besides, even if something happens, I have you and your Healing Magic with me, Michelle. I’m counting on you, okay?]

[Unnn……]

I sat down on the floor and took a deep breath.

I almost died last time, but things shouldn’t turn out that way this time.

[Clairvoyance!]

As I closed my eyes and deployed my magic, I heard that voice calling me.

“Do you want to go forward or go back?”

As I chose to go forward, a creaking pain shot through my body.

It felt like my brain was being clamped in a vise, but not to the point that the pain would render me unconscious.

Alright, it’s a success.

As I endured the pain, two search boxes and a map appeared.

It seems there are two ways to see the future.

One is to select a time and a place.

The other would be to select from a list of places that were caught in the search engine.

The map was within a 10-kilometer radius, and the time could be specified up to 12 hours in the future.

I guess that’s the limit of what I can do at the moment.

If my level goes up even further, the time and space that I can see should expand even more.

For the time being, I tried a search using the keywords “lightning” and “lightning strike”, but no possible list showed up.

In other words, there must be no place where lightning strikes within a radius of 10 km within 12 hours.

It can’t be helped, let’s probe something different in the future this time……

After some thought, I specified tomorrow morning in front of the dungeon.

Thereupon, a vision immediately unfolded in front of me.

Oh, I can see myself opening up my stall.

It seems that the adventurers aren’t going to take some rest tomorrow and will be hard at work.

Team Harukaze came running.

Just like usual, Merle went straight to trying her luck in the Scratch Card.

……Oh……?

Ohhh!

Merle unusually drew a winning lottery card!

After confirming that much, I deactivated Clairvoyance.

Reaching the limit of headache I can bear, an unbearable pain runs from my shoulders to my lower back.

[Fuuu……]

[Yuusuke, pull yourself together!]

[I’m not going to die, so don’t worry. Thanks to leveling up, I don’t lose consciousness like before, but it still hurts. Mngh……]

[Where does it hurt?]

[In my neck and shoulders. Sorry, I’d like some Healing Magic……]

Michelle’s cool fingers rested on my neck.

From there, gentle soothing mana began to flow in.

[I’ll give you a massage as well, so you just relax there, Yuusuke.]

[Sorry, but I would have to ask you to pamper me today.]

[Geez, you know I could pamper you around the clock?]

.

Michelle definitely is trying to make me a useless person……

As I felt her hands moving smoothly up and down, I closed my eyes in rapture.

[So, did you see the future?]

[So far, I can only see 12 hours ahead. However, if I were to use it on a bad weather day, I think we would be able to tell where lightning will strike. With half a day in hand, we can prepare the essentials in advance, right?]

[Right. With that much time, we will have enough time to prepare the energy packs and converters. All that’s left is to finish the energy packs.]

[How’s that coming along?]

[It’s almost finished, but there are still some materials missing. They’re all drop items from monsters, but obtaining rare materials is quite challenging.]

Monsters dropping those items aren’t guaranteed, so it seems that no matter how strong Michelle is, they’re still difficult to obtain.

[Then, I’ll also ask the assistance of other adventurers. Make a list of the items you need. I’ll make a bulletin board and put it up. If we buy them at a fair price, everyone will be happy.]

[That’s a good idea. Luganda is finally going to have a purchase station huh.]

In the Royal Capital, if I’m not mistaken, there’s a guild that handles requests and purchase transactions.

Luganda will have a system similar to that.

For the time being, Nakaram-san and I will operate the guild, but I’d like to eventually set up an official guild.

Unnn, Luganda is gradually becoming more and more presentable as a town.

I’m very happy about that.

[How is it, Yuusuke? Does it feel great?]

[Thanks, it made me feel better. I’ll massage you this time.]

[I’m good…… I’m happy as long as Yuusuke feels good……]

[Enough of that, we’re taking turns.]

One doesn’t need Clairvoyance to see what happens from here, right?

Feeling the flirty time with our skin, we intertwined our fingers with an aura of expectation and affection.

I made a bulletin board with Nakaram-san early in the morning.

We had plenty of wood, so we didn’t have to worry about the materials.

With the powerful Nakaram-san wielding his hammer with gusto, the bulletin board was ready in no time.

The board was set up right next to my stall, so people who came to the stall would notice it.

[Is this good enough?]

Nakaram-san’s eyes squinted as he looked at the signboard, seemingly proud of the finished product.

[It’s excellent. Your help saves me the trouble.]

[No, no, this is nothing.]

His upper arm muscles are twitching.

I recently found out that Nakaram-san has a habit of flexing his muscles when he’s happy.

[Arehh~~ Yuusuke-san, what did you make?]

[Good morning, what is that?]

Merle and Mira came over.

[Oh, you came at the right time. Help us out on this too, Team Harukaze.]

[Help out? Hmmm…… Ohh, you’ve set up a purchase list!]

Luganda will buy the following drop items.

Pinus Wev’s Silver Horn: 20000 rims

Stunning Eel’s Beard: 8000 rims

Hell Priestess’ Staff: 12000 rims

Metal Golem’s Heart: 50000 rims

If we get these four items ready, the energy packs will be ready soon.

If the adventurers work hard, we may be able to gather them soon.

[The purchase price is a little better than in the Royal Capital.]

[Whether the Genos Breaker will move depends on this after all. Everyone, I’m counting on you. If you bring me the especially rare Metal Golem’s Heart, you can even fill your basket with my place’s snacks as much as you want.]

[Really!?]

Mira looked really eager there.

[Of course.]

[T- Then, I can pour as much condensed milk on my Milky Crackers……?]

[I don’t mind!]

Milky Crackers are apparently Mira’s latest favorite.

Product name: Milky Crackers

Description: A snack with a light, crispy texture. Eating it allows one to float in the air for 7 seconds.

Price: 20 rims

At Dagashi Yahagi, customers can choose from either sauce, apricot jam, or condensed milk to put on their Milky Crackers.

Back in Japan, pouring apricot jam is more common in Kanto region, while pouring condensed milk is more common in Osaka.

Mira loves Milky Crackers with condensed milk on them.

[Merle, let’s go! I’m gonna eat my fill of Milky Crackers coated with plenty of condensed milk!]

[Alright, alright! Alright already, so stop pulling me…… Wait, whoa! I won! I won at the Scratch Card!]

In Merle’s hand, she holds a scratch card with three different patterns of swords on it.

Good, good, the effect of my Clairvoyance has been proven.

Things are getting more and more exciting.
