Reincarnated as a Farmer Gamer: Rising to the Top with the Evolution of the Weakest Job that Only I Know About!? - 46.1

The mockery from the noble group towards the young lady and Lady Diana shows no sign of stopping. Even Alc, due to his ambiguous position as the Third Prince, seems to be in a situation where he is neither hated nor liked.

Among them, the one who holds the most influence is―――― Count Geira A. Kuzelia’s son.

He has that “noble” aura about him, interacting relatively normally with other nobles, but his attitude is still quite arrogant. The large students who confronted me were his subordinates.

As a result, the nobles, the quasi-baron group supporting Lady Diana, the Third Prince Al, and the young lady seem to have divided into four mysterious factions. Al and the young lady are the only ones in their respective groups.

A few days after the start of school.

I was beginning to get used to the academy life.

After classes ended in the evening, I went out to the hunting grounds with Lisa every day.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t as deserted as around Poropoko Village, so there were fewer magical beasts than there.

Even so, it was helpful for leveling up.

“Beryl”

I was stopped by Lady Evans.

“We’ve accumulated enough magical power, so it’s time to create the next transfer point.”

“Where will it be created?”

“Next is… here.”

She pointed to a location on the map spread out on the desk.

“Is it an abandoned mine west of the royal capital?”

“Yes. Since we can only create them in order of proximity from the royal capital, there are no other options.”

“I see. Understood. I’ll head there immediately. Can I also create it deep inside?”

“No, I want it created at the entrance.”

“At the entrance…?”

“You’ll understand when you get there. Well then, I’m counting on you. I’ll be waiting underground.”

“Okay.”

I left the mansion with Lisa and boarded a carriage heading west at the carriage station.

I knew there was an abandoned mine to the west of the royal capital, but I had never been there. The reason being, it had mineral-type magical beasts, which had poor experience yields and were sturdy, so the durability of weapons would quickly decrease. Therefore, I had skipped it.

Also, the ores obtained there were sold to blacksmith players, and I heard that they used them to make equipment.

Since I had no one to sell ores to, I had deemed them unnecessary.

Back then, I had plenty of time and was distrustful of people, so I lived a self-sufficient life. Nostalgic.

The carriage soon stopped near the abandoned mine.

“I see… So this is what Lady Evans meant.”

I thought it would stop along the road, but surprisingly, it stopped in front of a certain settlement.

There was―――― a slum area that had spread out using the site of an old mining town built in front of the abandoned mine.

I got off the carriage and walked through the slum area towards the abandoned mine.

Just walking along the street leading straight from the entrance to the abandoned mine made us quite conspicuous. The people around looked at Lisa and me with curious eyes.

Lisa walked closely behind me, calculating her steps to avoid getting tangled up. It was impressive how skillfully she managed her steps.

Walking up the mountain path from the street, the entrance to the abandoned mine came into view.

“As Lady Evans said, I should set up the transfer array outside rather than inside. It seems undesirable to set it up in an obvious location, so let’s use that spot behind the rock over there.”

“Okay!”

Behind a large rock next to the entrance, there was a space where it looked like we could set up camp.

Inserting a dagger into the ground, a magic circle appeared, just like in the Dera Forest, and Lady Evans appeared.

“Grandma!”

“Hehe. Lisa, you’re such a sweetheart.”

Lisa and Lady Evans played around. It was a visual treat.

“Shall Grandma come with us too?”

“Oh my, you’re unusually affectionate today.”

“Hehe~”

Ugh! Nice going, Lisa!
