Chapter 26

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 09:45

It has been said to the fool - don't tattle on the trail!

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 09:53

The staff sage was saying, explaining the safety rules!

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 09:53

What about me? How did I blurt out, "System, save the girl"? And what did I promise in return? And I chose what kind of setting - with magic! And what's the formula for magic? A thought, a gesture, and a word, man!

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:03

Gray is the Old One, the girl and I look alike. We give everyone nicknames. And I was joking about "slaves" in his presence, and how did he know I was such a joker? He took that at face value and rushed to the rescue. Although I'll kick his ass for the "freak" on occasion! Why wait, though? Does Вelivery take orders for broken legs?

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:06

Still chuckling, I got up from the pebble and looked at the commotion. The Umruns looked almost like humans, just a little smoky in the scanner. Stuffed while they stomped through the unreal. But they're going into the wilderness anyway, there's a miracle of more, less, no one will notice. The men of the Composite Squad were not much different from the living, either, though they reeked of smoke much more strongly. I did what I could for them, and then they were on their own. They had weapons. The rules would be explained to them. Maybe they'll make some kind of Soviet Magic Republic.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:08

But without me.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:08

I blurted out that I was willing to pay for the help without bargaining, and I would even make peace with my father... And exactly after that, I was given a quest to save the Grey-Old One. Who took care of the rescue. He may be for this and in that vortex of power went. Delivery took the order and began to work it, opening the trail and putting the Courier on it. And I, in order not to be distracted from the minutiae of life and not to spoil the script, was planted with trinkets and occupied with all sorts of small things, away. That's me - the famous Happy Courier, the savior, and the winner! It's worth it to give an Achievement or two in time so that while you're bragging and proud, someone did the credit... Too bad there's only one way I can make peace with my dad.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:10

Anyway, I'm going home, because I'm fed up with all this - the miracles, the problems, the unsettled life.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:33

Bleep.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:11

I picked up the phone without even looking to see who it was. Who else could get through to the other world?

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:11

"Yes, Mom? No, it's okay. It's nothing special, it's just a routine. Mom, I'm going home now... Yeah, I've had a lot of fun. Prepare your father mentally, so he doesn't jump to the ceiling with happiness. Yeah, I'll be home soon, for sure, just finishing up a few things."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:33

The nervous giggling wouldn't go away, so I tried to get it over with as quickly as possible. I waved at the departing caravan, then caught up and gave the rest of the water of life they would need, and waved again. Ran through the city, distributing debts and collecting orders. Stopped by the Trade Guild, leaving instructions. Went to the Mage's Guild, negotiated changes to the contract.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:35

And only after finishing all this I staggered home.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:46

The familiar business center, the jump through the glass, the surprised faces of the creators sitting around the table with the sliced cake. I was also offered one, but I had no appetite at all, so I unpacked the orders and began to explain:

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:46

"Here, man," I handed the guy a round piece of wood on a string. "This is a Dream Amulet, which was kissed by all-female adventurers of a small Guild of Adventurers: put it on at night, and one, random, you will dream. Not a glitch, but a real one will come to you in your dreams. You have to negotiate with them yourself there but keep in mind that they are different. I can't think of anything more interesting, I'm sorry."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:48

"Man, you are just... You have such an imagination!"

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:49

"To you," I handed the girl, "the Talisman of Hue. I don't know how it works but if you put it on yourself, people around you will only notice your most positive trait. Positive to them. But don't be surprised if it turns out to be something unexpected."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:51

"Interesting," she took it apprehensively, but immediately jumped up and started twirling in front of the mirror.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:51

"Yeah, you have to recharge it once a month. Either create an artifactor skill for yourself or call a courier from Delivery and let him take it to the wizard under contract. So, I gave you healpots, now you, kid - the System does not approve of Intelligence Boosters in our world. So here's the "Mirror of Truth", or rather a fragment of it. The whole thing is obscenely expensive, even for you. I don't know how it works, but according to the description, it allows you to look at a problem from a different angle. Careful, it hits you on the brain!"

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:54

"Okay, that's fine."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 10:54

While I was rummaging through my bag, "Stick-in-the-ass" start staring at the computers through his monocle. I guess I should have warned him, he was already frozen.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 11:09

"Here's yours," I handed the box to Oleg and warned him: "Careful, in the world where I brought it from, it is a combat artifact from the gray list, with all that it implies. For it on the spot will not cut, but look askew. Order a guide on the forum, do not use it for fun, and in general - it's not a joke!"

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 11:48

He nodded but twisted the box in his fingers doubtfully. By the way, why did I remember his name so quickly? He must be the main character of the next season. But that wasn't up to me.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 11:49

Finally, the System acknowledged that I had fulfilled my part of the agreement, and a new tab opened in the app. As agreed, a hundred and thirty third-level skills had been translated, all with techniques. Now all that remained was to arrange their delivery, but that was no problem...

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:49

"Well, dear Creators, it was a pleasure to meet you... have a good day."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:50

Poke, poke, and I'm on the street.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:50

Long farewells are unnecessary tears.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:51

"Junior."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:51

"Boss?"

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:51

"In ten minutes at the dorm."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:51

"Yes, Boss."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:56

Judging by his intonation, I distracted him, but it's late, and he still needs to make it.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:57

"So..." I looked at myself-with-a-nut-in-a-head. Junior looked dumb and devoted, just like I would if I were him. "Give me the phone."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:58

It took me less than a minute to transfer the skills. Then I created an order for delivery to the Mage Guild through the forum, poked at the confirmation myself, and returned the phone to Junior:

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:58

"You leave this world for another. There you will fulfill the order, you will distribute the skills to the umruns, who are cared for by the adventurers of Mira and Larna."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:59

While I was explaining point by point what to do, Junior nodded in time and only clarified:

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 12:59

"How do I get back here?"

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:00

"You don't. You stay there, and when the colonists settle in, you can live your life."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:00

He rubbed his chin and suddenly asked an unexpected question:

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:01

"Boss... What's my name then? And then what should I do?"

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:01

Good question. I'm not going to make anything up, clever people determined long ago:

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:01

"You are a kind of younger relative and a freedman by status. I mean... Go on, Marius Julius Nuncio Junior. I've installed the Trade Guild app for you, and I've given you my account, so try to get up to platinum rank. All debts and all profits are now yours alone."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:02

He nodded silently and began to pack. Should I leave my bag and my cape? For what? I took them off, put them in the closet, then took out the familiar case, put the rings in it, and put them in the same place. I put the notebook under the bag, looked around for goodbye, and went out.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:03

Already outside, when Junior busily adjusted his cloak and walked away, I asked:

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:03

"When did you figure out how to get rid of me?"

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:04

He stopped:

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:04

"Well... the next morning, boss. Why?"

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:04

Huh. such a dumbass.

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:05

"Nothing. Go."

Camrad_RIP 18.06.22 в 13:05
