17 Episode 15 Receiver





Mr. Eigha Janies.

Dear Sir.

 How is life in the realm now that the flames of the dragons are still smudging the sweat off your face?

 Now, I think I should refrain from sending this letter to you after you left the party, but I have come to the conclusion that it would be better to inform you of this after discussing it with the other members.

 In fact, the other day. Morier was gone. I think it was out of adoration for you.
 I haven't informed her of your territory, but if she ever finds out where you are and comes back, please convince her to return to the party.

 I have heard that it is very humid in the summer in the Far East, so please take care of yourself. Please take care of yourself.          
                          Take care of yourself.


Tiana van Raal.

*********************




 Haha .......

 I was expecting that when Morier got back from his expedition and found out about my dismissal, he'd be ......, but I knew it.

 But I thought Tiana would be able to handle that part.

 After all, it was Tiana who was the one Morier was most attached to.

 It's a good thing that I'm not a fan of this kind of thing.


 It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of how old she is now.

 Well, he's been in the party for a year, two years, three years: ......

 Oh, you're already 15 years old: ......

 I thought he was a child child, but before I knew it, he was getting pretty old.

 I hope you don't get any strange men coming to you like this runaway. ......

 By the way.

 Lately, I'm starting to feel more and more recognized as a "lord" by my fellow countrymen.

 The chiefs of the various villages regularly come to visit me to see how I'm doing, and the wealthy ones have started offering me grain and seafood.


 Well.

 It was probably a good thing that they started building a mansion at the same time as the billboard.

 When you build a large building, it stands out, and it's easy to understand, 'Ah, the lord is here.

 It's easy to see that the lord is here.

Actually, I would have preferred to build on a small hill. ......

 And she says, but we're talking about taking the practicality out of it, so I don't blame her.


 Cancancancancan: ......


 But the house itself was not yet finished.

 So I've been living in my own home for a while now.


Igarashi-san. How is the old man at your parents' house doing?

Yes, sir.

 I asked, "I'm not making small talk.

'Have you been awakened to magic or something?'

...... I don't know because I haven't been back to my parents' house.

I'd like to visit your parents to see how they're doing, if it's all right with you?

......


 Because her grandfather, her grandfather.

Isao Igarashi (62)

 is a longtime cereal seed crosser for the soil of the land.

 He is also said to be the leader of the management of seed rice and seedling cultivation.


 In other words, he is a key figure in determining the yield of this territory.

 His profession is also a [producer], and as expected, his talents and current profession are consistent with each other.


 Since he is such an important person, I had already marked this Isao-san with a training skill 【Receiver】.



 ◇



 The cultivation skill [Receiver] was not a very useful skill in the brave party from the beginning.


 This is, in a word, an 'experience transfer skill'.

 For example, let's say that in a certain quest, 'Me', 'Cross' and 'Tiana' defeated a monster.

 However, Emma, Derry and Morrie all caught a cold and were unable to participate in the quest.

 Normally at this time, the three absent players would not be able to gain experience points.


 However, this is a skill called ...... that transfers experience to the three absent players as long as they each [Mark] this [Receiver].



 The reason why this skill wasn't very useful was because ...... that is, people didn't miss that many absences.

 The fact that you could gain experience even when you were absent was a bit of a bargain, but that was within the margin of error.

 It might seem effective if there was a solo expedition, but it was only recently that we were able to afford to spread out our forces to fight, and by that time, everyone had long passed the stage of placing importance on 'experience value'.



 However, when it comes to the "management of the territory", it's a different story, as I see it at ......

 The reason for this is that this 【Receiver】can be marked as an occupation that cannot participate in battle and plays an important role.

 For example, if I mark a 【Receiver】 on farmer Isao, even if he doesn't join in a battle, he will accumulate experience, and his ability as a 【Producer】 will improve.


 However, I can only mark this 【Receiver】 with 3 people.


 It's a skill I learned with the assumption of an adventure party in mind, so I thought, 'There's no point in training to be able to mark that many people.



I've been feeling light on my feet lately. I'm feeling a little light on my feet these days. I've been able to sleep.

 Isao said with his magnificent bald head.

'How's that? Are you able to use production magic or something like that?

 I'm picturing the story of ...... where he learns the [production magic], breeds are improved and future yields are more stable.

Hmm ......? You mean this one?

 Isao-san created a vague blue glowing circle on her fingertips as she purred her arm like a dead tree.

'That's it! That's it!

Here. As I write this: ...... See, my lord. Look at this.

 So I looked at it, and to my surprise, it had begun to grow hair on the back of my head.


 ...... Well, they'll be able to use it for something productive sooner or later.


 ◇


 For now, I'm going to mark one of the three [receiver] slots for Isao.

 I've already marked the other one to Shohei Yoshioka.


 And the last one, though: ......


 First of all, I thought of a move called Garcia, but the skills a merchant can gain from experience are like 'shouting out and calling in the inn and shops' and it's too subtle.

 Igarashi-san is a competent secretary, but even if you send her experience and extend her [wife's] skills.

 Yoshioka Juzo's power is that he has a wide face because he runs a shrine.


 For now, I've marked Garcia for the time being, but it's a challenge to find a guy with a job title that should be assigned another [mark slot].
