Mission in another world with my transformed best friend

"I'm the Shrimp Catcher! Mount Akina... no, I mean, 'Alchemy Pavilion Speed ​​King'!"

Wang Kai gripped the reins tightly with both hands, sometimes drifting, sometimes fishtailing, and even occasionally displaying racing techniques like "shifting gears while skidding over the line," which looked quite impressive at first glance...

In fact, Wang Kai was extremely flustered while performing these technical maneuvers. Only he knew that how the carriage could speed up now depended entirely on the two horses, and he, as the coachman, was completely "superfluous."

Those in the know who were watching could see that the person in the carriage was definitely driving without a license. As for what would happen next, they could only leave it to fate. After all, the scene of this "F1 carriage" being pulled along by two frenzied horses was something that ordinary people wouldn't even dare to touch. If someone were to be hit, a "village-wide feast" was not out of the question. So everyone could only continue to play the role of bystanders and watch the show silently. A small number of people, not wanting to miss out on the drama, even started shouting...

Wang Kai was at a loss. Should he abandon the carriage and flee in this situation? There were so many onlookers. If the carriage lost control and crashed into the crowd, at least half the town would be in trouble.

In addition, Wang Kai himself was also starting to feel the strain. Although the carriage was equipped with "springs," it was still far inferior to the legendary car of the "Akina Mountain God of Speed." After such a long period of racing, he was still feeling the effects and his stomach began to churn. The roast chicken he had just eaten was unwilling to accept its fate of being digested and decided to "go back the way it came."

Just as Wang Kai was about to give up, a dark figure descended from the sky, landing steadily beside the driver's seat. A fragrant body then pushed him aside, snatching the reins from his hand. With a few "Whoa!"s from the dark figure, the two horses slowly calmed down, their pace slowing until they came to a steady stop…

"I hope you can give a reasonable explanation for this farce, Adventurer Kyle, or perhaps it would be better to call you 'King of Retirement'...."

Wang Kai snapped out of his daze and turned to look. The familiar long hair, the familiar Adventurers' Guild uniform, and that familiar tone and eyes—wasn't this Miss Donna, the first-level receptionist of the Adventurers' Guild who had repeatedly advised him "not to resign easily"?

When Donna saw the carriage stop, she loosened the reins, smoothed her slightly disheveled long hair, and glared at Wang Kai, whose face was beginning to turn pale.

Wang Kai also came to his senses and opened his mouth.

"Resignation, what's this... Waaaaah!"

Before she could utter more than a few words, a large mouthful of thick, foul-smelling liquid mixed with chopped chicken and vegetables sprayed out of her mouth. At such close range, Donna was completely unable to react…

"Ugh...cough cough cough, ah? Donna...Miss, I'm...I'm sorry, I'll clean it up for you right away..."

Seeing Donna frozen with her eyes closed, her uniform covered in vomit, Wang Kai panicked. He grabbed a rag that looked like it hadn't been washed in months from the driver's seat and started wiping Donna down from her shoulders.

"Hmm... ah~"

In his panic, as Wang Kai's hand, holding a rag, wiped over two soft, squishy objects, a strange murmur suddenly came from behind him.

Donna opened her eyes, and then slowly raised one hand, her body trembling slightly, and an aura of anger instantly filled the air...

"Driving a carriage without permission in a private place to disrupt the order of the Chamber of Commerce, mentally attacking the staff of the Adventurers' Guild, and even sexually harassing them... Mr. Kyle, do you think there is any need for a defense?"

"Well... I think Miss Donna, you'd better take a shower... I can't get you clean!"

"Snapped!"

A crisp slap brought this unexpected "Chamber of Commerce Akina Mountain Carriage Racing Incident" to a close.

Half an hour later, in a reception room of the Hani Chamber of Commerce...

Wang Kai held a cold water towel and gently pressed it against his face. Although most of the pain had subsided, the five-finger handprints were still clearly visible, and he didn't know when they would fade away.

"Mr. Kyle, may I come in?"

A familiar, naturally imbued voice of an old man suddenly rang out at the door. Wang Kai froze, the towel covering his face slipping to the side. He could only manage a forced smile as he replied.

"Mr. Hani, it's been a long time, how have you been..."

“We met twice yesterday, there’s no such thing as ‘a long time’…”

"Yes, yes, look at my memory... Um, Miss Donna, you're here too?"

Behind Hani was Donna, dressed casually. After glancing at Wang Kai briefly, she turned away with a look of disgust. At Hani's gesture, she sat down on the sofa without any politeness, and for the first time, she showed all her undisguised anger on her face.

After all, being sprayed with vomit in public and then being groped would be incredibly upsetting for any girl, especially since another girl with a "middle-aged man's soul" had the same reaction last night.

Hani didn't want to waste time on some "trivial" things, so he magically tossed the "imitation springs" onto the table and got straight to the point.

“I have investigated the matter thoroughly. Mr. Kyle, it was indeed an unintentional mistake. In the future, if you have any similar ‘new inventions,’ please report them to the Chamber of Commerce in accordance with the ‘contract’ between Miss Alice and me. Our Chamber of Commerce will naturally arrange the appropriate testing sites and conditions…”

"Does this... count as a breach of contract?"

"I have not signed a contract with you, so how can there be any talk of 'breach of contract'? Miss Alice may not have explained this to you in detail... Well then, let me ask again, what is the name of this 'new invention' that can make the carriage achieve a shock absorption effect?"

"Let's call this a spring."

"A spring...not bad. May I ask another question? Did you invent this 'spring' manufacturing technique?"

Wang Kai was taken aback, unsure how to answer. After all, it was only after being "enlightened" by the dwarf blacksmith Glenn that he had created it in a haphazard, imitative manner. As for who should own the "intellectual property rights," it was rather complicated, so he decided to postpone the question.

“Mr. Hani, I don’t quite understand what you mean.”

Hani picked up the spring again and examined it for a while. Under his serious expression, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, but it was gone in an instant. He then said, word by word.

"The 'Hermitage of the Recluse' is truly remarkable, and her companions are equally formidable. I never imagined that you would produce such a 'masterpiece' in less than a day. Although it may appear somewhat rough, the shock absorption effect it provides is a revolutionary leap forward. Mr. Kyle, I wish to sign a 'technology transfer contract' with you on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce regarding this spring, provided you can provide the manufacturing method and guidance for future technological updates. We can now discuss how much of the profits from this 'invention' after it has been promoted throughout the continent."
