Episode 16 – To Glesius Academy (3)

About three days have passed since I started my journey to Glesius Academy in the carriage prepared by the top of Bleaas. .

The coachman pulling this carriage seems to have become somewhat accustomed to driving the carriage, as the shock he felt while riding the carriage on the first day was hardly felt.

This carriage that I and others were riding in was not a carriage for viewing the outside world.

So all we could do was check the items we each had or talk.

‘Something a bit noisy is going to happen.’

I was hoping for something noisy to happen when I was traveling in a carriage with nothing going on.

I think someone once said that humans are very treacherous beings, and that may be true.

―Ujistring!

“Whoa~ whoa.”

At that time, everyone in the carriage, including me, looked up at the sound coming from outside.

Wooji string! The sound of something breaking and the driver rushing to calm his horse.

It looks like something really happened.

“Are you a bandit?”

A man who looked like a seasoned adventurer due to his bald head and thick beard got off the train first.

All of us who saw this also got off the carriage to prepare for any unexpected situation, and when we got off the carriage, people were crowded into the carriage in front of us.

‘What happened?’

I wondered if something had happened, so I pushed through the crowd and approached the carriage that was moving ahead of the one I was riding in.

“Ha, Mr. “It’s a big deal.”

“Why did it suddenly break?”

As we approached the carriage, we could see the people at the top clicking their tongues and not knowing what to do.

I heard the sound of something breaking, so it seemed like the wheel was broken.

When I approached the carriage filled with people, I saw that the rear wheel and axle of the carriage, which was fully loaded, were completely broken.

If the wheels and axles are broken, how much luggage is there?

“What on earth was this carriage carrying that caused the wheels and axles to break?”

“Hmm? You mean this carriage? “It is loaded with ingots of various metals to be supplied to blacksmiths under contract with Glesius Academy.”

Aha, that means it was moving while loaded with heavy objects.

I looked at the back of the carriage, which had broken wheels and axles, and sure enough, there was a fairly large hole in it.

When I looked closely at the road, I saw that the road turned to the right from in front.

I think the front wheel somehow avoided the hole, but as I turned the corner, the rear wheel got caught in the hole, and the impact broke the already old wheel.

In addition, the axle that helps the wheel roll was broken.

“It’s a very big deal.”

“That’s right. Ugh, I already said that the carriage was strange and needed maintenance…….”

Leaving behind the merchant worker who was complaining about the poorly maintained carriage, I approached the owner of the Bleaath merchant.

“Hmm? “What’s going on?”

“I heard the sound of something breaking, so I came out of the carriage for a moment.”

“Ah, now that I think about it, the carriage the customer rode in was right behind it. As you can see, the wheels and axles of the carriage carrying various ingots are completely damaged. These are already the most expensive items in this commercial trip…….”

According to the following words from Bleas, all the ingots on this carriage were specially ordered by Glesius Academy to manufacture equipment for students attending Glesius Academy.

In addition, the order quantity this time was a whopping 1.5 Times that of the last time, so more luggage was loaded than usual.

In addition, because the delivery date was tight, they loaded all the goods as they were collected, and explained that safety checks for overloading were probably omitted in the process.

“Something big has happened. “We can’t repair the wheel right now, so the overall schedule at the top will be delayed.”

“Are there any spare parts for repairs?”

“There is not enough space or time to load things, so how can we afford to take care of parts?”

“Is that so?”

After listening to Blea Sangju’s explanation, I realized that a golden opportunity had come.

Are you indebted to a company you trust enough to order large quantities of items from Glessius Academy?

It was clear to everyone that it would be of great benefit in the future.

And what abilities do I have now?

‘It is the ability to fix everything.’

What if I use this ability to fix the wheels and axles of the carriage?

‘Bleaas Merchant Marine will be very grateful to me.’

The top makes a living from financial gain, but where does that financial gain come from?

It is the network and trust that I have built up on a daily basis.

Trading goods means that both the party who obtains the goods and the party who delivers them have trust in each other.

A person seeking a product makes a deal because he or she trusts that the person receiving the product will provide him with the product he wants.

The person seeking the goods makes a transaction because he or she trusts that the person requesting the goods will pay the exact transaction price.

In other words, I learned in high school economics class that transactions are based on mutual trust.

And if I help them, my name will somehow spread around Glesius Academy and other places.

Therefore, there was no reason why I should not help them.

“Is it okay to just fix the wheels and axles?”

“Hmm? “Is there any good means?”

Bleaas Sangjangju began to show interest in what I was saying.

After falling into the water, you probably feel like grasping at straws.

“Could you please tell people to step back for a moment?”

“Is it possible to fix the wheel and axle?”

“We can fix it.”

“Oh, oh! Thank you! “If you fix the wheels and axles, I will be grateful.”

Now that we had received a firm response from the owner of the Bleas that he would pay compensation, it was time to fix the wheels and axles.

He did as I asked and made the people step back.

People’s eyes were focused on me as I approached the carriage, but I tried to ignore their gaze and took out a hammer from the sack I was carrying.

When I took out the hammer, Bleas Sangju’s expression began to change in real time.

He felt something strange when I just took out a hammer, but he seemed to remember that I said I could fix it, so he just watched.

Well, now is the beginning.

I was thinking of fixing the broken wheel axle first.

The wheel axle, which was broken along with the wheel, was completely distorted.

If you look at it from a distance and see how well it is twisted, you might mistake it for a twist.

‘First of all, the wheel axle needs to be fixed before the carriage can stand upright.’

I swung the hammer at the broken wheel axle under the carriage.

―Tap, click, click.

When a dry sound, like tapping dried pollack, rang out three times, a faint halo of light began to appear on the broken and twisted wheel axle.

“Hey, what is that?”

“Is there a light on the wheel axle of the carriage?”

“Chu, the axis is being fixed!”

I swung the hammer three times and the wheel axle of the carriage began to mend with a clanking sound.

At the same time, I swung the hammer at the broken wheel.

―Tap, click, click.

A dry sound like hitting dried pollack rang out again three times, and this time, a halo of light began to appear on the wheel.

And then something surprising happened.

As the halo of light on the wheels and axles disappeared, the carriage that had collapsed backwards began to slowly lift up.

After the halo of light had completely disappeared, the miserable appearance from before had disappeared completely, and the carriage wheels and axles were shining like new, showing off their majesty.

“That’s ridiculous… ….”

“The wheels and axles have been fixed… ….”

As I repaired the wheel and axle, I began to hear reactions of disbelief and exclamation from those around me.

“Ha, hahahaha, hahahaha. “You were truly a guest with extraordinary abilities.”

In particular, the owner of the Bleas Merchant Marine began to treat me with respect and show a polite attitude, unlike before.

“Thank you. Sir. Thanks to this, there were no disruptions to this flight.”

Once it was confirmed that there was no problem with the coachman moving the carriage back and forth, the owner of Bleas conveyed his thanks to me.

“I will definitely pay this price when I arrive at Glesius Academy. “I will definitely reward you generously in the name of Marcus Bleas, the owner of Bleas Merchant Marine.”

Marcus Bleas, the owner of Bleas, seemed to be satisfied with the repair of the wheel and axle, and repeatedly thanked me.

“I will believe that promise.”

I decided to believe what he said, that he would put his name on the line and make up for it.

I returned to the carriage to start again…….

―Uji string.

“Oh my.”

This time, the rear wheel of the carriage I was supposed to ride in broke.

“…… This time, I will provide you with a service.”

“Thank you very much. Thanks to our customers, our flight was no longer delayed. Thank you!”

“It’s a comfortable ride by carriage, but I can do this for you.”

An unfortunate incident occurred again while repairing the wheels of the carriage, but thanks to that, I was able to receive good treatment without incident while on my way to Glesius Academy.

Just like that, Glesius Academy began to appear in the distance.
