I have never traveled by train in the real world, but since I came to this world, my journey was by foot or carriage. It was surprisingly comfortable two days because of that difference. Since the inside of the train is relatively safe, it is very thankfully mental that it is not necessary to take any precautions day or night. In addition, they came to eat meals in the car. There was no elaborate thing that would come out of a hotel, but it was just a word of comfort. The spectacle seen from the window on the audience side was very beautiful if only the fact that there was a demon inhabiting it was forgotten. The role of escort still remains, but I'm a little wondering if it's so comfortable and good.
After a two-day train journey, the station of the Imperial City, Draknir, arrived safely and was a huge building, much larger than any of the midway stations that had stopped several times, including the southernmost city. It is the end point of all the trains in Diagarh territory. It's a reasonable size.
One step away from the station, the city of Imperial City is expansive. A quick glance at it clearly showed that it was larger than any of the cities I've been to. First of all, there are many tall buildings. I couldn't reach the skyscrapers, but I could see a number of five-story and six-story buildings.
"Hmm, the redneck is bare." "I'm a redneck, but what?"
Agat whispers in disgust, but shes away.
To be precise, he lived in the capital city of Japan in the real world, but in a fantasy world he came from an unfamiliar outlying village. He is sufficiently rural in the sense that the common sense of the world is lacking.
Agat's expression is mixed with stupidity, whether I didn't like my reaction or not. You're really short fuse when I get involved. I'm worried because Rand says this is a promising captain candidate.
We went into a coffee shop near the station. Fima's escort request was completed when he arrived in the Imperial City, and his settlement was done in a calm place.
We set up a large table, ordered our own drinks, and got started.
"Kanna, Real, thank you again. Thank you for completing the escort request with the present moment, and I will pay you."
In a modified tone, Fima said she looked at Rand sitting next to her. Rand nodded, took out the swollen sachet from her pocket and placed it on the table. It seems that the goods were included as rewards because of the jarring sound.
"Twenty gold coins. Please check." "... I'm so excited again."
It is 2 million yen in Japanese yen. What's more, she has paid for her travels over the past few weeks, so the real reward is probably 30 gold coins.
"I feel like you're getting a little too much?"
Real asked, asking questions, checking the contents. It's a cash story, but it seems like he will reject more than the payer has declared. Just talking about money.
"No. I'm going to get the right reward. Again, without Kanna and Real, we would not have been able to reach Draknir here, if not very much." "This was discussed yesterday with Rand and decided. It shouldn't be high given the level of danger we encountered, so don't hesitate to take it. "
If she and Rand say that, I won't refuse. Will we split between Real and me later?
"If you say your selfish intent, I just want them to continue to be my own escorts. Of course, I promise you the proper treatment." "I'm glad to say that, I don't mean to serve anyone at the moment. "" I have a full-time job. I can't afford to be hired by one person. "
When he refused, Fima laughed.
"I didn't have to apologize because I just tried to say it, but I really enjoyed having two people as much as I think. I just want to remember that."
For me, it was a fun time to be with Fima. The first impression was bad, but now it has been dispelled. I liked the personality that I could talk to, no matter who I saw as equal.
"Anyway, Mr. Real may be suspicious of your character if you bring in such a countryside. Please do not joke." "Oh Agat. I wonder if you doubt his ability." ……… I'll admit that he's better than the adventurers of everywhere. "
Agat evaluated my proficiency, regretfully. He was still as tall as he was, but he had the obedience to admit what he should. I've been practicing mock battles with him many times on the road so far, but I have complained about my tenacious tactics, but there are surprisingly few curses. It seems to be a rigid thing, and it seems that it is not without flexibility. In fact, on the end, everything was nothing but training with rules (though no spiritism) couldn't easily win and struggled quite a bit. Well, I still managed to win, but that means that the other party's sneaky action has also been able to react quickly. Apparently, things went according to Land's expectations.
"No, even if a man who just imitates this guy looks like a guy, it will lead to the bad reputation of the lady!" "I refused, so I do not have to eat there" "In the first place, solicit the lady "It's not worth pulling in here!" "If you refuse it, it's awkward to refuse." "What's going on?" "Yes yes Agat. You should be calm down."
Kisca stops Agat trying to get up.
"I think the workplace where Kanna is with me is fun, but I can't do it if I don't like him ... I thought I had found a marriage partner." , You're almost yours, "" But it's good to have a long-distance relationship, "" you're really at your own pace. "
I didn't think Kiska was such a dark character. She thinks she is a beautifully dressed woman and recognizes her as the best blurred character in this party. Despite the least conversation among them.
The story of the solicitation is here.
"So what do the Fimas do after this?" "I've already contacted you by letter, so go around the greeting. I think I've already arrived in Draknir, so I'll come out early. "Kannah?" "Because the day is still high. I plan to apply for registration with the adventurer's guild today." "I am not going to go with Kanna." I'm going to show my face. ''
When it comes to this coffee shop, how do you say goodbye?
Real will have a face-to-face meeting in the future, but this will be a once-in-a-lifetime match with Fima. I do not intend to have any deep involvement with nobles. As long as I'm not a resident of this world, I would like to refrain from getting involved with something that can be a hassle. I mean, I don't want to step into the world of everyday affairs.
"Well, that's what I enjoyed. I guess it was probably the right answer to take on your escort." "If you have any troubles, please tell me.
I shook a good-bye handshake with the laughing Fima.
When I left the coffee shop, I and Chloe, Real, and Fima departed in different directions. It's a clean end that doesn't rot.
"Then go to the adventurer's guild right now?" "Do you know where you are?" "I'm not sure where you are at the station, but with a stand with a map of the Imperial City. The branch here is Euphonia. It's the second largest guild next to a certain headquarters, so you'll know right away if you go nearby. ''
Are the preparations perfect? I didn't have to ask anyone for directions.
"Being a reliable senior"
As she smiles at Chloe, she shimmers shyly and shakes her animal ears and tail. I was almost unconsciously reaching for and stroking Chloe's head in a reaction that was too easy to understand. Black hair with small hairs squashed between the fingers.
"Waffy" "Oh, bad.
I felt emotionally like a dog. And she's a wolf beast and she's older in the first place. Was it a little rude?
"Oh, no ... I'm not bad. Rather, more ..." "He?"
Rather more ... what? I'm worried.
"I'm going to go to the adventurer's guild anyway!"
Chloe started walking with a forcible change of topic, but I could only confirm that his profile, seen from behind, was reddish. I followed her in silence, not touching it, feeling shy.
But it's dangerous. That black wolf ear and the feel of the hair are going to be a habit. Originally I was interested in Kemofusa, but when I saw it, I became addicted. In one of the lodgings the other day, I enjoyed the animal ears and tail, but the addiction was dangerous. I have to weigh myself.
Again, just as the center of a country, the number of humans in Draknir was dominating other cities. And, even with the number of people, the proportion of races other than races is overwhelmingly greater than that of Yulphilia. At first glance, there are a lot of beast-humans, and some elves have long ears, and if you look closely, you can find people who have their hands in the hands of aquatic people. Some were as small as children, but probably some of them are dwarves. Because they carry heavy weapons that don't fit into their stature. The dwarves have the strength to surpass humans, contrary to that small body. But the gap is great.
As she followed Chloe with light human observation, she stopped in front of a building. Apparently he reached his destination.
"It looks like this is a guild branch of Draknir. There is an emblem with wings crossing on the billboard. That's a sign of the adventurer's guild." ? "
When I heard from the branch, the small image fit, but the building we arrived at was quite large. If you judge only the number of windows in the area that is likely to be a gymnasium in a school, there are five stories. The size was slightly different from the surrounding buildings, which were noticeable. And if it was only the height or the area, it was a bit different, but if this condition is the same height in this area, is this the only building?
"I'm the first to have a big guild so far in a branch. I'm almost as good as the headquarters." "I ask for reference, but how big are the other branches?" There is also a place that also serves as an inn, so there is only a capital city and the number of requests to gather and the number of adventurers to visit are enormous, so it will not be possible to process it unless it is this size "
Thus, while standing in front of the guild, those carrying weapons anywhere in the body are constantly passing through the doorways.
"Do you want to go in for now?"
The guild was full of adventurers as expected. The internal structure resembled a previously visited city hall in the real world.
Chloe spoke to a man who was walking by, holding what seemed to be paperwork.
"I'm sorry, but I'm sorry, but where should I register and reissue the guild card? I'm new to using the guild here, so I'm sorry." This is the counter on the far left. The staff will tell you the rest of the way. "" I understand, I understand. Mr. Kanna, here I am. "
Go to the window designated by the staff. Fortunately, few are lined up compared to other counters. Immediately, the reception of a race woman responded.
"Yokoro to the Draknir guild. Both of you look unfamiliar. Are you new to using this guild?" "I just arrived here just before. I lost my card and reissued it. I'm sorry he came to ask for a new registration. "" I was afraid. One gold coin for reissue. One silver coin for new registration. Is it okay? " "
Chloe glanced at him (I'm sorry) and uttered without voice, and pulled out one gold coin and one silver coin from her pocket.
She is completely penniless, as you know, but she can't move on her own, so I'm borrowing for the time being to lend her for the time being. Supplementally, there is no longer any means of contacting Fima after it has been split at a coffee shop. Chloe's travel expenses from the city near the valley to Draknir were to be repaid by herself, but there are many inconveniences as she has no means of contact with the person to return. So, I took Chloe's debt to Fima this time, and Chloe borrowed it from me. In my case, it wasn't a serious financial crisis, and I was rewarded this time, so I didn't hurt much to pay for Chloe's travel expenses.
"I will never return this thanks!" Chloe was strongly determined. Somehow, her benefits to me are accumulating. Don't worry about it, but my back is a bit soy.
"I'm worried now, why is re-issuing more expensive than new registration?"
I asked the obedient question to the female staff.
"Guild cards are not only made of special materials, but they are also treated in a way that they cannot be duplicated. The cost of each is a single gold coin, For beginners, the threshold is a bit expensive, so the new guild will be cheaper and the rest will be charged by the guild for the commission to receive the request. Claiming is a way to make sure you don't lose your card easily. "
Is it troublesome to lose one gold coin worth?
"Then, if you're a reissuer, please write your name on this form and drop a drop of blood at this mark. Would you like to have a knife here?" If you're a man, please give me a name on this form. "" I'm sorry to accompany this person, but is it time-consuming to reissue? "" Yes. Search the guild network, It will take some time because we will check your name against the magic information contained in the blood. It will be completed by the time your new registration is completed. " The card can only be transferred after his registration is over. Is that OK? "" Of course, it's okay.
Under the direction of a female employee, I wrote my name in the blank space on the paper provided. I'm still practicing the characters of this world, but for the time being, I was able to write only my name. To be honest, I still have to read and write simple words and numbers.
"It was just right. There are three new registration exams a day, and the second one will start soon. It seems that the capacity is available and will you take it soon?" "I'll do that." "I'll do the procedure in that way. I think there will be detailed explanations from the staff of the examiner, but will you give a brief explanation here too?" I'm sorry that I registered at the branch of Hinemosul, but is there any major difference?
With the support of the staff, albeit in a social refusal, we moved to the exam hall according to her words.
