From The Strongest Job of Dragon Knight, To The Beginner Job Carrier, Somehow, The Heroes are Depending on Me Volume 2 Chapter 17

That day, around the time when the sun began to get stronger.

I was eating breakfast on the first floor of the pirate inn, but—

「Good morning. Carrier-niisan.」

Just when I was about to finish, a face that I had seen yesterday showed up.

「Hm? Yeah, Good morning. Ehm, Wilhelm, right?」

「Aye. It’s an honor that you remembered me, Carrier-niisan. Thank you very much for yesterday.」

Wilhelm bowed energetically while saying this.

His movements seemed more lively than yesterday.

「It’s fine. We only fulfilled the request. By the way, are your injures fine already?」

When asked, Wilhelm raised his head and hit himself on the chest.

「Of course. I’m completely healed. All because you guys brought me to the city so fast. I’m grateful to both you lad and the hero of magic who created that road of ice.」

As he said this, he looked around my surroundings.

「Actually, are you alone right now? The hero of magic who saved the lives of the sailors, or that red-haired girl who carried the baggage…」

「They are still sleeping upstairs.」

After the dinner last night, around bedtime, Berzelia and Saki were arguing who will sleep in my double room.

I thought that it was a usual thing and went to bed right away, but it seems that they were arguing until it was deep in the night.

When I woke up, both were sleeping on the same bed together.

The surroundings were kind of frozen or burnt here and there, most likely they exhausted themselves and went to sleep.

It’s good that they are getting along, so I decided to let them sleep and went downstairs to catch breakfast earlier but—

「But it’s about time for them to wake up. If you need, should I wake them up?」

「No, you don’t have to go that far. But how should I put it, I guess my business, is with you, niisan.」

「With me?」

「Can you come to the shipbuilding guild later? It’s a building with a mast stuck into it, near that huge dock over there.」

Saying this, Wilhelm pointed outside the window.

Not far from the port, was a building that stood out with a mast sticking out of it.

That seems to be the shipbuilding guild.

「Well, I don’t mind going, but what for?」

「There is an item I want to give niisan as a reward. Also, there are a bunch that was saved by the hero of magic or nii-san. We felt it would be bad to barge here with a whole crowd, so I came alone, but there are a lot of people who won’t be satisfied unless they thank you… I know it’s a bother, but I’m told that they want to properly express their gratitude.」

Wilhelm scratched his head and urged me.

「I know asking for this so suddenly might trouble you, but can I get you to come?」

「It’s no trouble. I have no plans for today. I thought of strolling around the city or picking up some transportation commission from the merchants’ guild.」

I wanted to take a peek at other guilds eventually, so I think it’s quite convenient.

「Is that so. In that case, it’s all the more of a reason to come, we will be happy to see you. Our guild is more or less also part of the twelve cardinal guilds. So I think knowing us better might prove useful in your work.」

「Oh, so the shipbuilding guild also is a part of the cardinal guilds? I heard that the marine guild was also one of those.」

Wilhelm had a surprising look.

「Eh? Could it be that you guys came to save us without knowing any of that?」

「It was just that Lilac asked for my help and I obliged.」

At that time we were in a hurry so I didn’t ask what kind of ship that was or whom it belonged to.

It’s my first time hearing that they were related to cardinal guilds.

When I tell him that, Wilhelm faintly smiled.

「I see… So you really came to help without care for our position…」

「Well, if you’re in front of a sinking ship, what status or position matters there?」

If the person in question is quite a villain it’s one thing, otherwise, I would help first, ask questions later.

「Hahaha… Indeed. Ah, since you are this kind of person, then we appreciate your presence even more… Well, our shipbuilding guild『Ixis』is being relied upon with all ships moving between the cities, so you can consider us to be pretty big.」

「I see.」

Since I now have a transportation job, I may have more opportunities to get on board.

……I can fly some distance if I ride Berzelia, but in my current condition, long time and long-distance flights are very difficult.

In that case, there is a high possibility of us becoming work partners in the future.

If so, getting to know people of the shipbuilding guild might be beneficial for the future. That’s why—

「Understood. Then, I shall visit the shipbuilding guild. I will bring Saki and Berzelia together.」

When I said that, Wilhelm smiled broadly, showing his teeth.

「Okay! Thank you, lad. The other day, I’ve shown you a pitiful sight. So I’d like to show you a solid welcome and our great work as soon as possible.」

Thus I decided to take my two companions and head to a new place, named the shipbuilding guild.
