Campfire Cooking in Another world with My Absurd Skill

Chapter-3

Chapter 03 - Escaping from the royal capital with a stagecoach

I left the inn after eating breakfast.

And went to the stagecoach’s terminal then confirmed the fare to go and the departure time.

The price 1 gold coin, and it looks like it would take 4 days to a town along the border.

There’s still time until the time for departure, so I decided to get food for 4 days and a weapon in case of anything happening.

It would be bad of course if I used Net Super in front of another person, and in the case that the item box is a rare skill, there would be a possibility that there would be a commotion, so it would be better not to use it.

I bought a leather water bag, dried meat, black bread, and a slightly large knife.

The preparations are done with this.

The only thing left is to ride on the stagecoach and leave this royal capital.

The stagecoach’s customers, other than me, there was a middle-aged peddler, a family of four that is a young couple and their two kids, and a woman who was about in her middle thirties.

Then, there are 4 adventurers as the guard of the stagecoach.

After a while after the stagecoach had departed, I tried to talk to the middle-aged man that was sitting beside me.

「Are you selling something to Keels?」

I started first with a casual talk.

「Yeah, I had purchased soap from a certain connection. I am thinking of selling it to the merchant company of my friend in Keels」

Ohh, soap huh. It exists in this world too.

And, listening to him carefully, soap does really exist, but as I’ve thought, they’re for nobles.

When sold to nobles, he said that one soap would be for 3 silver coins.

When I casually mentioned about the item box, I found out that nobles and large merchant companies are hiring people who have those skills.

It is told that there is at least 1 item box possessor in ever 1000 people, and it seems like its size depends on the magic powers, and only those who have decently sized item box would be hired by nobles and large merchant companies.

「Even though it’s said to be small, it would still have three times the capacity of the backpack that I have right now, so looking from my perspective, just having an item box makes me jealous enough」

The middle-aged peddler said that and laughed.

I see, there are quite a lot of possessors of item box skill huh.

If I would act that although I have an item box, it’s capacity is low, there might be no problem using it.

「If you’re going to be a merchant, having an appraisal skill would spell success right」

Since I was able to hear bout the item box, I mentioned about appraisal very casually.

「Ah〜, that is something every merchant would dream of. But, however, the only ones who have appraisal skills are the heroes summoned from another world mentioned in fairy tales. Although I think that appraisal skill should be a skill a merchant should have rather than a hero. Appraisal skill, it’s the dream of everyone doing business. Even if appraisal skill doesn’t exist, I will hope that appraisal magic items spread more. That’s also something that is rarely found in ancient ruins after all, it’s so expensive that your eyes would pop out, so only countries or guilds would have them」
