We really did involve in something big
[Mr dean?]
[Ah, sorry Billy. I just mumbling myself.] me
...
[Billy!]
[Are you sure you want to follow me?] Me
[What do you mean Mr Dean?] Billy
[You know that my action almost killing you back there, and now, I think we're just involved in something big.]
[I don't know if I can keep us from an even bigger problem later, so, do you really want to go with me? You can always be a mercenary without me or join another party if you want.] Me
[Don't worry, Mr Dean. I know the risk the moment I decide to come with you. Also, I'm already involved anyway, so I don't think I'll be safer with anyone else either. Going solo now is even worse.] Billy
[Then I can't promise you'll not regret your decision. Just remember that you can always take the offer later on.] Me
...
[Here. Use this instead of your bow.] Me
I hand him a modern laminated recurve bow from my miracle shop.
[Wha... is this also a magic tool? I can't receive something this exquisite, Mr Dean. I... I also kinda scared to use something like this.] Billy
[Haha... Don't worry. It's just an ordinary bow. But I do use a special method to develop it. It should fly faster than your ordinary bow.] Me
I just introduced a laminated recurve bow in this world. It will work a hell lot better than the ordinary short bow in this world.
What I give to Billy is 2 step upgrade for his short bow.
First is a recurve shaped that will give it a longer draw hence a longer more efficient acceleration time for the arrow.
The second is a laminated constr that makes the bow lighter, stronger, and more long-lasting.
[Hmm...] Billy

[What is it Billy?] Me
[It's just... I... never heard of a magician that can do something just like what you just did. Back then you tell me you can summon something out of a thin air because it's a magic tool. But now, you summon this and you tell me this is not even a magic tool... Ah! Sorry, Mr Dean. I don't mean to pry you!] Billy
Mistakes! I should have been giving it to him after pretending I made a bow in the forest.
Now, what is the use of that weapon crates that God gave me??
[I... I'll explain about that when the time's right. Let's just sleep! We'll go to Romora tomorrow.] Me
Oh well. I can already tell I need to explain my ability to Billy sooner or later.
Hmm... Having a gunner sidekick is also nice... I'll teach Billy how to use a gun later.
It'll be cool if I have a sniper watching my back, isn't it?
[Umm... Mr dean? Are you sure this is not a magic tool? What if my head suddenly explodes when I use it? I won't dare to use something like this, Mr Dean.]
[It's ordinary tools Billy. Sleep.]
I need to prepare a narration for when I explain about guns to Billy.
[The lacquer is soo smooth and shiny... It's just like a knight would use. Mr Dean? Can I really have it? You won't take it back later do you?]
[Sleep!]
-------------------------------------------------------
*thunk*
*thunk*
[Yaawnn...]
*thunk*
[Hmm??]
Billy is not here. Do I wake up late?
I do spend a couple of hours thinking about my narration for Billy when the time comes.
But I don't think I'll wake up that late, do I?
*thunk*
What's that sound anyway?
It's Billy! He shooting a log with his new bow.
[Oyyy!! Who's log are you shooting over there? Don't get us into trouble!!] Me

[Ah Mr Dean! Do I wake you up? I'm sorry, I just can't resist trying the bow gave me. Don't worry though! I already asked the tavern master to shoot one of his firelogs!] Billy
Ah well. As long as it didn't bring any trouble.
Let's wash myself and go downstairs to get something to eat.
Thinking about it, it's been a week I go to this world, and not once I take a proper bath.
Wait! I also didn't bother anymore about the smell of my room! Do I used to it because of my body smell?!
[Morning Mr Dean! Breakfast?] Barman
[Morning master! Yes please and prepare some dried food for two days trip, thank you.] Me
*thud*
[Here you go. Don't worry about your friend portion. He wakes up early in the morning, asks something to eat, and asking me for a firelog to practice. Hahaha... What a lively young man!] Barman
[Ahaha... Sorry if it brings you trouble.] Me
[Nah... Don't worry. It's not like I won't be able to burn that firelog after getting shot at.] Barman
[So, you're going somewhere after this I presume?] Barman
[Yeah, we'll go to Romora today.] Me
[Ahh... The life of a mercenary. I heard that the job is better there am I right? It's actually strange when I meet Billy the other day asking for a mercenary request in this village. There are not many mercenaries who wonder in a village like this asking for a request. But on the other hand, I am also glad some is doing that.] Barman
[Glad?] Me
[Yup, as you may know, the request in a city comes from either the kingdom or a somewhat rich village who can post their request there. Meanwhile, a village like us can only rely on luck to meet a mercenary who wants to take our request. We might not have a request for you now, but who knows when we'll meet another mercenary when we do have a request? Not to mention a village like us can only prepare pocket changes for the rewards.] Barman
[Hahahaha! But a village like this won't have that many problems to begin with! Don't you remember your last request is just to kill a boar who wreak havoc on your cabbage farm? And the one who gets the reward is not even a mercenary but just a passing hunter. Hahaha...]
[Ahhh, just shut up old man! Here for a drink?] Barman
[Hahaha... You know me!]
*sit*
[So, you're going to Romora I heard? Silver claw?] Old bard
[Where do you even come from? And why ask if you're already eavesdropping on me?] Me
[Ahahahaha... You need to know that a lot of people out there are wary of us. Of course, we need to know how to get our information without revealing ourselves. So, Silver Claw?] Old bard
[Yeah? Maybe? I don't know. I don't even know if I want to involve myself with them. It just seems it's too big of a hustle.] Me
[Hm? Is that so? Just so you know, that Krill is an old friend of mine. Hahaha... Sometimes I envy that immortality of his. But sometimes, I think being able to grow old is not too bad either...] Old bard
[And... Your point is?] Me
[Point? Hahaha... Nothing... Just do as you see fit...]
*gulp*
*drop*
[Name's Borad. That name can be beneficial for you if you happen to meet someone who knows me. Ah, a lot of them are old or probably dead already, hahaha...] Borad
*stand*
[But maybe, you can find someone who's still young and fit just like that Krill... Hahaha... Let's see if we can meet again... Dean...] Borad
[Yo! Old man! Pay up!] Barman
[I'll come back later! You speak like you aren't the only tavern here.] Borad
Ahhh...
Can I just eat in peace?

The Eternal Seeker Saga
In a universe where Earth is nothing but a distant memory, and humanity is clawing its way back from a million years long interstellar dark age, Sarah Ciel-étoilé is but a humble mercenary. For 60 years, her crew of exiles has followed her onboard their stolen military gunship, the Eternal Seeker. But now, a threat like they have never seen before is rising. The Dominion, an intergalactic empire over a millenia old, is dying. Its catastrophic civil war almost brought it to total collapse, and it endures only through the strength of its navy. But that strength is waning. Throughout the Dominion's Protectorate, whispers of a revolution are spreading, and insurrections are flaring up, as a conspiracy set on casting down the Dominion and burning it to the ground set its plan into motion. Yet, behind all the chaos and the destruction, something far more sinister brews in the shadows, and it could change the face of the universe forever. This is the story of Sarah, and her mercenaries, during these troubled and dark times, as empires fall...and others rise. ----- Chapters will be posted every sunday, mostly at 23h30 CET (22h30 UTC), although I will probably experiment with different release times.
