Chapter 189

New Patreon goal: 7 Days (chapters) of Nigotta Hitomi no Lilianne.

When the goal is reached, I will dedicate an entire week's schedule to Nigotta Hitomi no Lilianne.

Guild

""Where we going~?""

"To the guild."

After leaving the workshop, we parted with Lionel-sama and went towards the Merchant's Guild.

""Request~?""

"Ah, sorry, sorry. We are not going to the Adventurer's Guild, but the Merchant's Guild."

""I see~""

Allen and Elena were in high spirits because they thought we were going to select a request at the Adventurer's Guild, but they don't seem to have any interest in the Merchant's Guild.

"Well, we are just going to confirm something, so it will be done soon. After that, how about going shopping?"

"Shopping?"

"What we buying~?"

"N? The real objective is salt, but you can tell me if there's something you want to buy."

""Got it~""

The Merchant's Guild was located in the center of the shopping district, it was a place with a lot of traffic, and the building itself was quite splendid.

"Oh, it's here."

""Here~?""

"Yeah, this is it."

There were many people inside, but unlike the Adventurer's Guild, there were many elderly people.

"What may I help you with?"

"I would like to confirm whether I have a deposit."

"Yes, certainly. Please hand over your guild card."

"All right, here you go."

I immediately lined up at the counter and handed the receptionist the guild card after stating my business.

The card used here is the same card used at the Adventurer's Guild, in fact, there's a merchant rank right next to the adventurer rank. Well, my rank is the lowest one, which is F, though.

If I have any deposit here, I will be able to use this guild card to withdraw and deposit funds.

"My, so you were Kayano-sama!"

The receptionist who received my guild card opened her eyes wide in surprise.

This is my first time coming to the Capital's Merchant's Guild, but the receptionist is talking as if knowing about me.

"Err… you know of me?"

"Yes, there is no one among the staff who doesn't know you, Kayano-sama."

"Eh!?"

Wait a moment!? Why do all staff members of a place I visited for the first time know me? Isn't that strange!?

"Kayano-sama, would you like to hear the details of your deposit on this day?"

"Y, yeah, I would like to."

"Doing it here may have a bad effect, so please let's talk in a separate room."

"Yes?"

Unmindful of my unrest, the receptionist continued talking, but this situation was too unexpected to me, so I got led to another room while confused.

"I will return your guild card. Kayano-sama, your merchant rank has risen, so please confirm that first."

"Eh?"

Oh, it's true. My merchant rank increased to E.

How did my rank increase even though I have done nothing at all?

"Next, here's the updated information on your deposit, please confirm."

"Yes, err…——eh?"

It looks like the deposit amount had been updated, so I checked the indication on the card.

However, when I saw the deposit, I let out a surprised voice without thinking.

"This… isn't a mistake, is it?"

"Do not worry. Everything is as it should be."

There was an obviously strange amount of money added.

I deposited the money from selling the Evil Viper materials, so I had quite a lot stored up. And yet, the digits increased further.

The reason the receptionist took us to a different room is definitely because of this amount.

"Lots~"

"Of money~?"

"Yep, seems like it. We received lots."

""Amazing~""

Allen and Elena smiled while tilting their heads to the side.

… They have peeked into my guild card from the sides, but they must have not understood well.

Well, I let Allen and Elena shop only a few times, after all. I have to increase the opportunities to have them shop on their own in the future.
