Yesterday, a relatively long mission, which is rare for me, ended, and I thought I'd be spending some time relaxing and lazing around in town... but unexpectedly, more and more things to do piled up, and I ended up wandering around the city.
After that, I did some work with Fiora and the others at the Magic Research Institute and then returned to the mansion... but there another job came in.
It's to act as a scout and guide so that the survey team under Zighart, who are on an expedition to the northern base, can return safely to the capital through the northern forest.
Normally you'd think, why such a troublesome thing... but after considering various things, apparently this is probably the best way to avoid future troubles.
For me, it's a distance I can easily fly with 【Floating Orb】, and unlike First Forest, moving through the northern forest isn't something I'd have trouble with, so well... it's just like running an errand.
The problem is.
"Sera... is something the matter?"
"If you need help with preparations for departure, even we can help..."
The servants call out to me as I stand with my arms crossed in front of the equipment lined up on the table.
Seriana and the others have already left the room, and there's no one I usually consult with anymore.
Is that why?
The servants, who normally don't speak to me during departure preparations, called out to me.
"Ah... I'm fine."
Apparently they thought I was worried about how to equip my gear.
Some of it takes a little effort, but as expected, I wouldn't ask for help with equipment I wear regularly.
So then, what exactly am I worried about?
"I cleaned it thoroughly yesterday..."
Not just a light wipe with a cloth as part of usual maintenance, but I cleaned it thoroughly, even disassembling the parts that can be taken apart.
Moreover, I even used magic with Fiora's help to remove the dirt.
Wearing this and charging into the forest the very next day after all that... well, it takes a bit of resolve.
As I groan "Hmm..." with my arms crossed, one of the servants hesitantly speaks to me in a low voice.
"You're going to meet Zighart-sama's team today, right? And then act as the guide on the way back..."
"Yeah. I think I'll leave the fighting to Zig-san and the others... but if necessary, I might do it too?"
"From what I've heard from the household staff, signs of monsters have returned to the northern forest, but there don't seem to be any that are that powerful. If it's Sera-sama, couldn't you get through without fighting?"
"Hmm..."
The other servants in the room nod in agreement with her words.
How should I put it... it's common among those who've only heard rumors about my combat abilities, but sometimes they misunderstand and think I have high combat skills.
It's just that I manage with the brute force of Blessed Items and divine protection; my own skills aren't anything special.
Instead, my defense is rock-solid, and I have several unusual attack methods, so it's true that I can make bold attacks.
However, that neither helps nor hinders what I'm worried about this time.
As I continue to worry, another servant speaks up.
"If the purpose is merely to meet up with Zighart-sama and guide them, don't you think that kind of equipment is unnecessary? While flying through the air with that Blessed Item, guiding Zighart-sama and the others along a safe route... I think that alone is sufficient."
"That's quite true."
I clap my hands with a "Alright," then pick up my equipment and head to my room.
The necessary Blessed Items can be worn, and other equipment probably isn't needed.
Apart from potions, the only thing I need to put in my pouch is a Combustion Orb.
It's true that disposing of corpses is an important role, but I can just leave it to Zighart without using a Combustion Orb.
For today's gear, Blessed Items and a jacket are enough.
