Chapter 152: Toruo Norte Boden Smith

Norte Boden a city on the North Continent, one of the gateways.

I went to the city’s Adventurer’s guild to rent a warehouse to moor the airship for a long time. Then, at the Adventurer’s Guild, all the adventurers inside attacked us.

Without Shia’s efforts and the stun grenades, there might have been injuries on our side or at the worst dead.

To hear the details of why they suddenly attacked us, I was passed to a private room to meet the president of the North Continent, Norte Boden Adventurer’s Guild Branch.

Only I sit on the sofa, and behind me, everyone is watching the room and the outside like a guard.

I armed everyone just in case. Snow had an MP5SD. Chris had an SVD (Dragunov sniper rifle). Liz had the PKM. The representative, me, and Meiya, the engineer, were empty-handed.

For some reason, Shia took out a new "Koffer" bag with a built-in MP5K from Liz’s infinite storage. It might be used indoors, so I'd like her to bring a normal MP5SD…

A knocking sound echoed in the room before the door opened. The Norte Bowden Adventurer’s guild master’s head appeared.

"Hiiii…!?"

Liz screamed involuntarily. She was the only one who raised her voice, but we were also speechless.

That should be the case, and for some reason, there was the receptionist who was always in charge of the Dragon Continent!

The horns resembling sheep are those of the devil race and carry bat-like wings. The age is in the low 20s.

The clothes are not the white apron with sleeves receptionist's clothes, they were more like the usual folk costume-like clothes and a sling tied on the head. The sleeves had a more relaxed design without an apron.

Because of that, it was not like a female employee who had just graduated from a junior college, but a female boss who was a skilled worker.

The branch manager looked suspicious of our reaction.

" I wonder if I have done something rude?"

"Ah, nothing rude! But why are you here! Dragon Continent and Fairy Continent! You should have been in the Beast man continent Adventurer’s Guild!?? "

"I see … calm down. They are the daughters of relatives. I'm like their relatives, grandmother." [TN: She said Oba, which means old woman or grandmother.]

Is it this pattern again!??

When I talk to the branch manager, she seems to be a relative of a woman who is always in charge of reception, the one like an aunt. This is the fourth person including her.

The branch manager smiled happily and mischievously.

"I see, so you met those girls. It's no wonder you were surprised. Even though they weren't my daughters, they were very similar, and I was always mistaken."

"Who wouldn’t make a mistake, if you’re so similar…? But how many times have I said this?"

I was so shocked that I forgot that I was attacked by adventurers earlier. They really look like two melons. It's similar at a level where you can't find mistakes.

I'm seriously wondering what the genes of this other world are. Or maybe they're the only ones special.

I wanted to worry about the wonders of this different world, but I set aside my doubts. This time, I must ask why the adventurers attacked Snow, the White Wolf. Depending on the content, it may be necessary to leave the North Continent as soon as possible.

The branch president first bowed her head while sitting on the front sofa and apologized. She explained why the adventurers attacked Snow.

"Actually, about a year and a half ago, a high noble, Toruo Norte Boden Smith, who governs the city, put a large bounty on the White Wolf tribe."

It was sudden.

The High nobleman, Toruo Norte Boden Smith, who has the largest territory on the North Continent, has said he will pay a large bounty to those who capture a White Wolf.

But their clan is in the interior of the North Continent, where giants roam. And they rarely come out of it.

Originally, the White Wolf tribe is a race that lives with the giant tribe. It's bad to say, but it's like a remora. They are protecting themselves from foreign enemies by moving with the giants.

Fortunately, no White Wolf has been captured.

But as a result, the bounty soared and became so valuable that the White Wolf tribe was called the "white jewel" in the North Continent.

In other words, Snow, a White Wolf appeared without warning in a market where the boom was heating up. The adventurers changed the color of their eyes and attacked. I finally understood the reason.

"I understand the situation, but she, Snow, is my wife. She is my childhood friend who grew up with me since we were babies in an orphanage on the Fairy continent. Would they get a reward if they catch her?"

"Yes, the condition is that it is White Wolf, regardless of age or sex."

"Will they’ll catch her, even knowing about the White Wolf here is the same as the general public?"

The branch chief nods.

I don't understand the meaning.

Was a familiar of the top of the city killed by a White Wolf? Isn't it crazy that even Snow, who has no connection with the clan?

Or maybe there are goals, objectives, and benefits that we don't understand …

"We came here to find out clues to find Snow's parents, her birth, and her roots. We didn't come here to set up with the adventurers here. Moreover, Snow is the wife of Lute Gunsmith, who was awarded an honorary knighthood by the King of the High Elves, Enol, the Kingdom of the High Elves. Please warn the adventurers that there won’t be next time."

Snow behind me threatens with a firearm sound.

The branch manager looks at it and her face changes colors, so it is easy to understand.

By the way, the adventurers mentioned earlier were not currently on the scene. They were healed by the magicians who are intimate with them. Many were injured, but none died. Of course, it was because we took care of it.

If we wanted to kill them all, we would throw a ton of grenades, firing PKMs, and shooting Panzerfaust from the outside.

The branch manager nodded while wiping the flowing sweat.

"I fully understand your point, Sir Gunsmith, but it is Mr. Toruo, the noble who governs this land, who put the bounty. It is difficult for me to withdraw the bounty without permission…"

Is this power?

"In other words, if you want to formally suppress your wife's assault, you should negotiate with the top governor of this city, the person who is paying the bounty, right?"

"Yes … I'm very sorry."

I rest my body on the back of the sofa with a sigh.

Certainly, that would be the quickest way.

Even if you suppress the adventurer, you can be misunderstood and attacked by the soldiers in this city.

I also want to know why he is giving a bounty to the White Wolf. If it's an unreasonable reason, it should be canceled.

"I understand. Can you write a letter of introduction?"

"No, if it isn't a nuisance for you Sir Gunsmith, I'd like to accompany you and introduce Mr. Toruo directly."

Thank you for that.

It's more reliable than having a letter of introduction written, and it may be possible to be a hostage in case of emergency. Well, it's the worst case, and I'm not sure if it works, but in any case, it's better than just us.

I think for a moment and agree.

"Thank you for your hard work branch manager. Thank you for your assistance."

"This is it. Then it's too late, so is it okay to go tomorrow morning?"

"OK, then tomorrow morning I’ll come to the Adventurer’s Guild."

After that, I was about to be introduced to the inn and the airship warehouse, but I gave up.

I didn't think it would be a trap of the branch chief, but we could be attacked. So, I decided to spend the night on the airship tonight.

So tomorrow I will meet with Toruo Norte Boden Smith, an upper-class aristocrat who governs Norte Boden, the largest city on the North Continent.

I was enthusiastic that I would get the promise not to attack Snow at that he will withdraw the bounty of the White Wolf tribe.
