From The Strongest Job of Dragon Knight, To The Beginner Job Carrier, Somehow, The Heroes are Depending on Me Volume 1 Chapter 21
Translator: “Pink Tea” Editor: “Ryunakama”
After having tea with Dort, I visited the guild Sagittarius.
Apparently, the plan is that from today on, instead of beginner level requests, I will be undertaking requests for transportation specialists.
Though I have no idea what kind of work it is—
「Berzelia, let’s focus.」
「I think it would be fine if Master was a bit more relaxed though. But well, I like your serious face, so I will keep myself moderately tense and will work hard as well!」
Full of enthusiasm, today as well, we had to choose a request from among those that Marion brought for our training, but—
「…Somehow, all of the requests this time have《Danger of attack by monsters》attached.」
Most of the requests brought this time had notes like『Risk of Combat』or『Difficulty 10, recommended level 10 or higher』etc.
Furthermore, I felt that location has also shifted from the city center to distant outskirts of it or the City of Winds or some other town.
「So with the difficulty level increases the transportation range and level of danger also increases?」
Marion nodded, confirming my guess.
「Well. For the increased difficulty those are the typical requests. To begin with, due to its location, for the City of Stars there is increased possibility of coming under attack by monsters or magical beasts were you to try travelling to the outskirts of the city or the facilities in its vicinity.」
「Yes, that’s certainly true. This area is surprisingly close to『The Primordial Forest』so it can’t be helped.」
This country which the City of Stars belongs is adjoined to undeveloped territories 『The primordial forests』which serves as a home for many monsters and magical beasts. And this city is relatively close to such areas.
「Yes, there is a lot of relatively safe work in the city, but tasks that require leaving it, have a slightly different feeling to them. In this area, the level of difficulty particularly jumps up for the work in the vicinity of undeveloped areas, where monsters live, and for the work that requires diving into the depths of the dungeon with several hundred floors, the origin of which is unknown. As one would expect, there are no such jobs among those that I brought this time.」

「This city is located in a surprisingly dangerous spot.」
「Yes. But thanks to that we have plenty of natural resources, money goes around, and the city is developing. Unless you pick the wrong place to live the danger is low, it’s a good city.」
「I agree with that. Because of that, the food here is also good.」
Monsters and magic beasts have a magic stone charged with magic power near their hearts. When they die, magic stones fall to the ground and scatter accumulated magic power onto the soil.
That is why this territory, being close to the primordial forest, has a lot of fertile lands.
「Well, anyway. No matter what you pick, the difficulty will be higher than before. Today I will accompany you as well.」
「Eh, you will?」
「Yes. Although your previous job was a combat one and you seem to be accustomed to fighting, but you don’t have much experience with performing a transportation request and engaging in combat at the same time?」
「…Yes. That’s certainly true.」
All that can be counted as such experience would be my actions on the first day since becoming a carrier. After I got this job, I hardly fought with any monsters while carrying out a formal request.
「That’s why I’m going with you. So I think we can be pretty much at ease this time.」
Marion says while putting the hand on her ample breasts. I really appreciate her attitude. I really do, but—
「You are so considerate of me every time, but are you sure that it’s okay? You must have your own stuff to do as well, right?」
When I say so, Marion replies with a gentle smile.
「Fufu, I wouldn’t really say that I’m being considerate. I’m doing this because I’m enjoying it and of course I’m properly doing my own job as well.」
「Eh? But I feel like you are inside the store every time I come after finishing my requests.」

In particular the day before yesterday, I came back every ten minutes she was there most of the time.
「Eh, yes, well, You were completing requests with great enthusiasm and at an incredible rate, so I was surprised how fast you are coming back… But even so, I have the advanced job of《Imperial Courier》. It might be difficult for me to perform requests that require traveling over a long distance at high speed, but I’m completing a lot of high difficulty requests that involve short distance travel. I also have skills like this one.」
While saying that Marion taps the box bound to her waist. Then her body blurs like a phantom.
「Camouflage…?」
「Close, but different. It’s a skill《Unstoppable》. I won’t be targeted by monsters while it’s active. That’s why I can transport goods diving into dungeons while completely ignoring monsters. Right, Kohaku?」
Marion pulled Kohaku, who was then doing clerical work, into the conversation. Then—
「Y-yes. Previously, in free time, Marion went to the uncultivated land, the day before yesterday she went to the middle floors of the dungeon. Apparently, adventurers were in trouble in both cases, we received gratitude and additional rewards from the guilds and schools they belong to.」
With a slightly surprised expression, Kohaku gave an explanation of Marion’s achievements.
「Ooh… Maybe I shouldn’t be saying this as a beginner who she is looking after. But to be able to do work while looking after a rookie like me, Marion is amazing.」
Marion wryly smiled when I said that.
「Fufu, thank you for your praise. But for me, you are even more amazing, since you can already take requests of such difficulty despite having a beginner job. And also, Berzelia-san, who can stick to you without a problem. That’s why I’m dealing with this without any worry.」
I can see composure on Marion’s face as her expression changed from the wry smile to a faint smile.
「Well, personally, as your senior in this trade, I would prefer if you would allow me to spoil you more.」
「Ah, I get that feeling. Master doesn’t really require anyone’s assistance, or how should I put it, he just goes ahead and grows on his own, really makes you want to make him depend on you…」
「Why are you coming to an agreement in such a strange way, Marion, Berzelia.」
I already knew that Marion is a pretty elderly sister type, so she likes taking care of other people.
However, that characteristic of her was really helpful and her being that way really saved me a lot of trouble for which I’m very grateful—
「So, Axel-san, did you decide which one are you going to choose?」
Asked Marion peeking at the request form in my hands.
Personally, since it’s a request of higher level I don’t want to get careless. So I would prefer to take the one closest to what I did during beginner’s training. That’s why—
「I think I will take this『Delivery of magical beast subjugation equipment to Magical Beast Research Facility』. It’s pretty much just take the package and deliver it to the laboratory a bit away from the town, pretty similar to beginners requests.」
「You are right, it feels close to beginner level requests. Yes, and yet, at the same time, with difficulty level 12 it isn’t too easy, this is nice. It might be a bit hard, but in case something happens I can intervene. Both of you, let’s do our best together.」
「Okay. I will be vigilant.」
「I’ll be in your care today, Marion.」
And so, together with Marion, we were challenging a bit more difficult request.

The Hand of Sigmar. A Warhammer Fiction.
Adebar von Bolstedt was a normal young Aristocrat once. Third son of the middling von Bolstedt line of Altdorf, capital of the prestigious Empire at the heart of the Old World, but when a quarrel with his brother escalates he decides to leave his pampered home, and soon finds himself stranded in the countryside. When confronted about his presence he claims to be led by the God-King Sigmar, but with the name of the Protector of Mankind come his responsiblities. Soon Adebar finds himself tasked with ridding a town of a mad killer, and settling some lethal family quarrels.Word from the AuthorGreetings! The Hand of Sigmar plays out in the much beloved Warhammer Fantasy setting (owned, of course, by Games Workshop). Do not fret, however, as I've made it a point to make the story digestible even to the uninitiated, and maybe even be a good introduction to the setting. This work will be shorter overall, partly because its born out of a sudden passion, partly because I thought I'd try my hand at a more comfortable story than the grim darkness of the 41st Millenium (psychotic murderer and fraudulent holyman included). Depending on how this does and my time allows more adventures may be coming.While I cannot claim the places, concepts and gods etc. mentioned within as my own, the story and all characters flowed from my own fingers.
