A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Reurus, who is aiming for the town of Lemona, walks down the street listening to the rattling of the wagon.

The journey is very slow compared to normal, taking care not to put as much strain on the horse as possible. If you go through the forest, it will take less than a day, and if you run through the street by Reurus alone, it will take about two days to travel.

Horses will still be easy because of the lack of luggage on the way home, but it will take nearly a week to reach the town of Speranza because you plan to pack your luggage on your way home. The wagon is towed by two horses, but when the luggage is loaded on the wagon, the movement speed is slowed by the weight.

With regard to food, there were some stolen from the town of Speranza, but there was no particular problem because Sarah assaulted and took out monsters discovered by detecting heat sources on the way.

There is no problem with water because Neddy can produce it, and it is easier than the usual journey because you can rest in the carriage while taking turns at night.

He broke into the caravan about twice on the way, but both were en route to the town of Speranza. But I never met a caravan going from the town of Lemona to the town of Speranza.

(Hmm... monsters don't meet bandits anyway, and there's no line of accidents along the way...)

Meer was always checking, but he found no unnatural marks - no signs of distraction or struggle from the streets - and Reurus leaned his neck inside.

Doesn't Saniel even leave the town of Lemona? Such doubts change into certainty as the city of Lemona approaches.

Those who work in fields spread around the town of Lemona and soldiers who patrol to protect such workers. There was nothing unusual about it, and I never met Saniel until I reached the city of Lemona.

An increment where the sun rises toward the middle of the sky after the early morning. Reurus, who left the town of Speranza and arrived in the city of Lemona on the morning of the sixth day, intends to go through the process of entering the town towards the castle gate.

"... well, it's been a long time. Since the other day."

Reus, who knew the soldier in front of the gate, smiled and threw such a word.

It was a soldier who took care of me when I first visited the town of Lemona, and Leurus remembered the other person's face.

…………

But the soldier leaned his neck with a strange face. Looking at the realuse with a blurry gaze, he opened his mouth in a few seconds.

"... ah... it's been a long time... have you come again?

"Yes, the purpose is similar to last time...."

That's how Reurus shows the wagon behind him with his fingers.

I didn't get the materials after all, so I came to pick them up this time.

"... I see..." Is that so? "

Soldier men nod twice or three times in slow motion. And as he gazed at the other soldiers, he began to open the gate.

"... come on, let's go through"

"Eh? Ah, yes... thank you."

Reurus remembered that he had a slight doubt that he was allowed to pass through the gate without checking the wagon's luggage, but he didn't feel any particular kind of hostility from the soldiers, and I think it would also be part of supporting the town of Speranza.

(In that case, it would be helpful if you sent me the materials as planned...)

With that in mind, Reurus dived through the castle gate, but he caught Eliza walking next to him in sight and turned to you.

Eliza was unusual when she visited the town of Lemona before, but she didn't seem unusual. Gently, I noticed Reurus's gaze, tilting my neck.

"Hmm? What? Is there something on my face?

"I wonder how you're feeling... isn't it painful? Look, just after visiting this town before....."

"Eh...."

When Reurus says so, Eliza's complexion increases rapidly. Looking at it, Reurus grabbed Eliza's shoulder with his eyebrows raised.

"Your face has turned red... have you changed your health again?

"Chi, no... this time it's really different! Because Reurus suddenly says weird things!

"... really?

"It's not true!

Apparently, I was embarrassed to remember everything. Still, Eliza shouted brightly red at Reurus, asking with caution.

(... that doesn't sound like a lie.)

Reurus nodded convincingly to Eliza, who turned her face bright red but did not unnaturally sweat or breathe.

Walking a few minutes into the town of Lemona, Eliza regained her calm, or her red face regained her calm.

Confirming that, Reurus was so small that Eliza couldn't hear him, he exhaled relief.

"But I don't know... I didn't realize it the last time I came here, but it's not a vibrant town."

Eliza murmured as she looked around. Reus frowned at Eliza's words, but at the same time he was convinced.

(Speaking of which, was Eliza silent the last time she arrived... when she couldn't afford to look around?

Early arrival Sarah was badly criticized for the atmosphere of the town, and it was in Reurus' memory that Meer was embarrassed. Not only was Eliza quiet, but Neddy wasn't particularly unnatural given his character.

"Nh... nh? Isn't it darker than when you came here before?

"I don't know... but if you ask me..."

Sarah leaned her head strangely, and Mea convinced herself of her words.

"What do you think of Neddy?

Reurus waved to Neddy to try, and he looked around and leaned his neck just like Sarah did.

"... quieter than when you came last time?

"Quiet... that's true..."

It is a realuse that is convinced by Neddy's words and observes the surroundings, but it is quiet for the time period when the work will start in earnest. The number of people walking around was small, and even if they were, they tended to lean down with a strangely tired face.

Not every sound, not every word, is heard very little against the size of the town of Lemona.

(There's nothing so quiet about other towns...)

I feel uncomfortable with the “unnatural” silence, but I don't even know what the reason is. Perhaps this could happen in a less vibrant town just because Reurus doesn't know.

(... for now, work first)

Reurus and the others visited the city to meet Saniel and make a deal. There is nothing else to do, and I am not going to throw my neck in vain as a revulsion.

Then he walked through the city of Lemona, and arrived at Saniel's shop, but found Saniel in the shop, and Reus frowned.

As usual, there were about three cars parked in front of the store, but for some reason Saniel didn't move one by one looking up at the sky.

"Ah... Saniel?

Nevertheless, he could not negotiate without talking, and Reurus tended to call his name reluctantly. However, Saniel did not see any reaction, and the strange Reurus took a step further.

Then Saniel turned to her eyes and finally noticed the presence of the Reurus. Then slowly change your expression and smile.

"... Welcome. Can I help you?

…………

Reurus inadvertently silenced her cheeks in response to Saniel's reaction.

Whatever happens, this reaction is strange. Sarah, who was listening to Saniel, tried to open her mouth as if she had met her first time.

"Stop... no, wait, Sarah. Sanielle is acting strange."

However, Reurus immediately stopped with Sarah in "Idea Call." Then connect the Idea Call to Eliza.

Eliza, I don't know how much I remember the last time, but will you wait a little while to say something?

Hmm......

Reurus also sent eye contact to Meer and Neddy, and smiled to match Saniel.

"What are you talking about, Saniel? Isn't today the day you receive your order?"

"... ah... that's right... yeah, that's right. Was this the day you promised....."

"That's right. So, that truck over there is a product?

"... wait a minute..."

Reurus turned to the truck and said so, Saniel dragged her legs and disappeared into the store. And I thought I'd seen you in a few minutes, and I took out a booklet that looked like a ledger.

"... excuse me. When you met him before, what was his name?

"It's Reurus. I think I also told him the name" Monster eater "....."

"Monster... eat it..."

Saniel murmurs the word "monster eater", not the name of Reurus.

After asking for his name, I'm sure he doesn't remember Reurus. In the first place, it was unnatural for Saniel not to touch the luggage that she had prepared when she visited.

(I don't think I've suddenly lost my memory... is this... a bit bad?

Reurus looks around with a smile on his face. As usual, I didn't feel hostile, but I felt some gaze.

Are passers-by watching or under surveillance? I can't tell until then, but I can't help but feel the cold on the back of my neck as a revulsion.

"... ah... that's right, that's right... that's where it's going to be."

That said, Saniel looked at the truck lined up in front of the store.

"The price was five gold coins, right?

"... that's right... yeah, that's right."

Reurus asked for confirmation and Saniel nodded to agree.

In fact, if you buy it “normally”, you will need about three large gold coins instead of five. It would take two large gold coins to build the town, even if it were accommodated to some extent.

Presenting it for a quarter to try, Saniel nodded lightly.

"Well then... will you let me transfer the luggage to my truck?

When Reurus says so and obtains consent, he uses "Enhancements" to transfer obvious materials in a short period of time. We can't carry everything the size of a towed truck. Still, when the sun rose to the middle of the sky, I was ready.

Saniel doesn't feel dangerous - but we shouldn't stay in this town long.

Following his whispering instincts, Reus immediately left the town of Lemona with Eliza.
