A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 237: Remuneration Part 1

A week after a series of disturbances, the residents of Accra also regained calm. The Reurus were ready to leave and gathered in front of the Spiritual Church.

Five adventurers return to the abandoned city of Laval: Reus, Eliza, Sarah, Meer, and Neddy. An ester to be escorted was added, and there was an additional appearance of Gilba.

With Gilba here, it's a lot safer than traveling to Accra. Even if Rebecca were to return, it would be nice to have Gilba. And if we leave Accra, Sarah will be able to shoot magic with all her might.

Rebecca aboard the Winged Dragon appeared to be strong enough to defeat him. If you encounter a bandit with bad luck, it will be the bandits, not the Reurus.

It might be an excessive force to go down the street, but those Reurus are now facing a bit of trouble.

"Is this the reward from the Vicomte de Velg...?"

She raised her eyebrows as if Esther was in trouble and agreed with Eliza and Meer.

Louis sent this reward to the church as declared. Diego was appointed to be in charge of the handover and indeed delivered the reward.

--- Loaded in a truck the size of which two people can lay down.

"... shouldn't I say that piling up in a luggage truck is noble?

"Well...."

Reurus, who saw the car, asked and Jilba raised her eyebrows with suspicion.

The wagon is lined up narrowly with sealed pots, large sacks of linen, fabrics of good quality, and wooden boxes.

There are a lot of things that I don't know the contents of, but when I heard about the reward, I imagined cash, but it was something unexpected as a realuse.

(It makes me feel thankful for giving a lot of goods instead of money... no, I'm going back to the ravel dump town now, and you're harassing this big luggage?

I can't read Lewis's ideas. With the exception of Reurus, all of us could use Enhancements, so we were going to run back to the Waste City of Laval with minimal baggage.

Even so, the speed of movement also decreases due to the increase in large luggage. It would not be impossible to trace manpower, but if we speed it could break on the road. Reurus and Gilba lift each other up and carry them, but if something happens, it will be delayed.

Sarah's presence prevented the accident from going through quickly, but what if she dropped from the sky and ambushed the dragon?

"... shall I pay Reurus in cash and donate this large package to the church in Accra?"

Esther thought the same thing as Reurus, so she started thinking about leaving her luggage here. Now that I have received it as a reward, the treatment after that is beyond Esther's control.

Diego, who had brought the truck so far, laughed bitterly at Esther's words.

"Mr. Lewis was also considering paying for everything in cash, but he wanted to give you something that would please you... here too."

While saying so, Diego offers the cloth bag to Esther. Estelle looked a little disgusted, but she thought she had no choice but to complain to Diego's opponent. I returned my expression to normal and received a cloth bag.

"Thank you... it's heavy!"

"Contains ten large gold coins. Here is a catalogue of the rewards loaded in the wagon."

Diego then presents a piece of paper. Esther handed Zimba a cloth bag that she thought contained a lot of gold coins and started reading through the catalogue.

"Eh... this is... I see, that's how it was...."

But immediately Esther pulled her cheeks. Then, when you move on to the end of the catalogue, you exhale one sigh and give it to Reurus.

"Hmm? Is it something I can look at?

To Esther - to be precise, to Spiritualism as a reward and as a nuisance. Esther and Gilba will gradually judge the rewards for Reurus, but can I look at the catalogue here?

"Eliza."

I thought you were coming.

However, even if we receive the inventory, we can't read the reus. I can still read my name, my numbers, and only a few simple letters.

As a result, she immediately invited Eliza to start reading the catalogue with an amazing look on her face.

"Fufufu... ten large gold coins, five rolls of linen cloth, three rolls of silk cloth, ten pots of salt, two pots of sugar, five bags of vanilla... Ko, sho? is a pot. Then there are four large bags of dried fruit and meat...."

As Eliza reads the catalogue, Reurus's eyes glitter.

(Even though salt is available in Laval Waste Town, sugar, vanilla, and pepper...?

I was worried about dried fruit and meat, but more than that, spices attracted the attention of Reurus.

(Holy shit... from now on you're going to have more choices than raw round-jingle and salt-baked? It was worth it this time!

Even though it is delicious to just shake salt and eat on the meat of a baked monster, what kind of frontier awaits if there is vanilla and pepper? There are more variations in the diet, and there's nothing else to be happy about as a revulsion.

(... I honestly want to be happy.)

Reurus sighs deeply.

You can't be happy with this reward. However, what was chosen as a reward was too obvious to be honestly happy.

(Sugar and vanilla... the one I bought the other day. Pepper was added... did that old lady tell Lewis, or was she originally from the Viscount of Werg...)

There are several other items loaded, so I have to be convinced if it is a coincidence. However, I was not optimistic enough to nod that they said it was a coincidence.

(Hmm... but I just talked to that old lady “normally” and shopped... and I didn't go into details about Laval Waste City or Spiritualism...)

But I don't know what made Louis pay. That's how Reurus bothered his head, and Eliza's voice sounded puzzled.

"Finally... one of the remains of Rebecca's magical doll?

"... what?

Paying attention to words you can't miss, Reurus turns his eyes. Then Diego grabbed a small wooden box from the top of the truck and opened the lid and showed it to Reurus and the others.

"This way. Can you check the contents?

That's how Reurus peeked into the crate, but it contained half a broken magic doll. Whether it reaches 30 centimeters or not, it looks like a wooden carved doll.

It is probably a magical doll that mimics Rebecca because it is broken in half vertically. I don't think it will move, but I feel like I've seen it with a cursed straw doll as a realus.

"Hmm... you want to give us the proof that's responsible for this disturbance?

Gilba, who was checking the magic doll just like Reurus, asked in a suspicious voice. Diego nods with a serious look when asked.

"We're not going to monopolize the loot. Regardless of the user's personality, magical equipment is a very advanced gem... there are two things. I think it's best to give you one, right?

"Really... thank you very much."

Unusual, Zilba acknowledged that she would receive it without confirmation from anyone around her. Regardless, Reurus and the others did not say anything to Esther, who is their “boss.”

When Reurus turned his eyes, Esther said nothing in surprise. I'm sure you trust that Zilba's judgment is correct.

(What are you doing with that wreckage... oh yeah, because we have Meer and the others here)

Dwarfs like Meer and Calvin live in the abandoned city of Laval. Probably trying to get some information from Meer and the others.

The convinced Reurus smiled casually to distract Diego from consciousness.

"Thank you for preparing so many things. By the way, is this truck included in your reward?

"Yes, the cargo is part of the reward. Since the" magic letter "of" reinforcement "is engraved on the body of the vehicle, it is an excellent thing that cannot be broken even if it is handled somewhat roughly."

"In other words, the magic equipment of the wagon...."

The wagon is provided with four wooden wheels, and metal is wrapped around the ground surface of the wheels to prevent wear. Also, the handle for towing was installed in the front, but it seemed sturdy even though it was made of wood.

It seems like it could be used as a carriage if it was towed by a horse. If you set up a front, it will also be a front wagon. It seemed very convenient for carrying luggage.

--Unless you think about the dragger.

(I'm going to tow this to Laval City... it might be a good exercise, but you should leave it where Esther says it is.

I've been away from the abandoned city of Laval for almost a month, so I'd like to go home as soon as possible. At that time, I was going to carry as much spice as I could, but I felt it was close to harassment.

Diego smiles bitterly at the thought of Reurus.

"I know that Mr. Lewis will get in the way even if he gives it“ as it is. ”Besides, if you're ever bothered by bandits on your way home looking for this reward, it'll be the name of the Värg family. That's why...."

While saying so, Diego took a look behind him.

Reurus was also caught and his gaze turned, and there were men who looked like soldiers dragging horses closer to him.

"... I told him I was in charge of transportation."

He had the appearance of Collard holding his stomach and pulling his cheeks.
