Someday Will I Be The Greatest Alchemist? Chapter 110

As we got closer, the panoramic scene of Bohd Village came into view. The size of the town seemed to have gotten twice larger than when I left 3 years ago.
New protective walls were buit in addition to the ones I made.
「Wha?! Mo, MONSTER!!!」

The gatekeeper's legs failed at the sight of Tsubaki's large body equipped with overwhelming armor.
When I made Tsubaki stop in front of the gate, people from the village came gathering at the gate to see if there was something going on.

「Ah! Ain't that Tak.u.mi!?
Guys! Tak.u.mi came back!」
「Ooo! It really is Tak.u.mi!」
「Here I was, wondering who came riding that amazing carriage. Tak.u.mi returned!」

「Tak.u.mi!」
「Ah! Vangsan!」

Sitting on the coachman's seat. I heard a nostalgic voice. It was the hunter, Vangsan's. Marthsan drew closer too.
I got off the carriage, delighted at my reunion with Vangsan and Marthsan. I was looking forward to the pa.s.sionate bearhug-like embrace from Marthsan.

「So how is it, Tak.u.mi? The village got a lot bigger, didn't it?」
「A sewer system was also established, right?」
「Yeah, we got various purifying devices that Tak.u.mi made. The number of people suddenly increased in Bohd village too, after all. We couldn't leave it as it was before.」
「Ou! It would be an obstacle if the carriage is left in a place like this! Tak.u.mi, bring it in quickly!」
「Oh right! We left your cabin there, so leave the carriage there!」
「Eh?! The cabin is still there?」

I was told that the cabin I used when I was taken care of by Bohd village was left as is.

「That's because Tak.u.mi is the benefactor of this village. We left it so you could come back whenever you wanted.」
「Hey! How long will you dilly dally there?! Tonight will be a banquet!」
「Ooo! Ya got that right!」
「Alright! I'm gonna hunt some game!」

Vangsan and the others dispersed from the gate front to prepare for a banquet.

「Tak.u.mi-sama, you're loved by everyone, huh.」
「Yeah, they really received me well.
Now then, let's move Tsubaki to the cabin.」

I moved Tsubaki in the direction of the cabin.
It's not yet paved, but even the road had become clean and wide.
The number of houses had doubled, and stores and workshops also lined the streets. In just 3 years, this development had been boosted by Margrave Volton's support and the investment of the Papeck Company.

「…… it's only been 3 years, but I've missed it a lot.」

I stopped the carriage at the cabin and looked at the small cabin once again.

「It's small, but it's a well maintained building.」
「Oh, Laeva gets it?」
Even so, when I was in Bohd village, there were still only few things I could do, so this might have been my limits at the time.」

I called Kaede and mini t.i.tan from the Subs.p.a.ce.

「Master, Kaede will go hunting too!」
「Then, can you go with Sophia please?
Kaede knows this area well.」
「Yes.」
「Got it, Master! Sophiane, let's go!」

When Sophia and Kaede left to go hunt, Maria and Marnie cleaned the cabin, and Laeva began to inspect the cabin. Akane-san and Lulu-chan sat and chatted idly with me inside.

After a while, the girls came.

「They said there would be a banquet, but we should offer the meat in the magic bag, right?」
「You're right. I'll also offer the meat I have stocked up in my Item Box.」

After everyone drank their tea, we went to the village plaza and offered to help prepare for the banquet. Vangsan also returned with some game and the entire village prepared for the feast.

With the sun setting and the bonfire blazing, the banquet began.
