"Oh, this is King's Landing!

About two hours after departure.

Having carried Mercia's carriage, we arrived before the king's capital.

The city seems to be quite bright even now that the country's capital is alone and the sun has completely fallen.

The landscape that can be seen through the gate also gives a more elaborate impression of the design than photolen or elaelaela. I can't compare it to Decibatole.

The biggest feature would be a huge castle with a face coming out of the gate.

Is this the first time you've seen a frog? I had a feeling I was used to places with a lot of people, and I thought I had been in King's Landing. "

"I don't think so. I'm used to crowds somewhere else."

While we talk like that, we slow down in line.

We cannot enter the gates of King's Landing at this rate.

"This gate is pretty empty at night, too. When I came here before, I was lined up by the time I got in...."

"Oh, there are very few monsters around King's Landing, but the road along the way is a little more dangerous. If you can get a decent escort, you should arrive at night."

Mercia, who didn't seem to pull a finger out of the carriage when he was speeding, also noticed that the speed had dropped, and he put out his face.

As it is, we slowly approach the gates of King's Landing.

"Um... what is that?

It's a carriage.

The doorman raised a confused voice when he saw us carrying what was a carriage.

Is it because this is the king's capital that the gatekeepers who do not use honorifice in other cities become honorifice?

Well, I know how you feel.

I don't know what to explain, but I don't think rickshaws are common, and the nearest one is probably a carriage.

"Looks like there are no horses."

Mathias answers the question and the guards become increasingly confused.

This might have been the right place to store the carriage and arrive on foot.

Well, it would be easier to pronounce on the movements of Gengar and his underlying tissue, and it would be better for short-term finals.

"The horse was slow, so I put it in the old city. I need to hurry up a little."

"I've heard about changing from a carriage to a horse to speed things up... but I've heard about leaving a horse behind - Excuse me, may I ask which city you're from?

All three of you, Decibatole.

"I'm from Photo Len."

The four of us take out our I.D. 's and show them to the guards.

"I see, was it Decibatole...? It looks like there's nothing wrong with your ID, but is it okay if I check to make sure no one else is in the carriage?

Ah.

The guards checked inside the carriage, and they let us through the city.

In this reaction, perhaps the rumours of Saami have not been conveyed to the guards.

If I had been escorting a visibly Decibatolian, musculoskeletal adventurer, I might have finished talking sooner.

To alarm the enemies, you chose an escort that seemed unusual.

"So, what do we do now?

"For now, let's go to the inn. I'm tired of boulders....."

"Didn't Mercia rest in the carriage? I could have slept."

While on the move, Lake explained how wonderful this carriage is.

In addition to the suspension, a high performance cushion should have been provided to ensure proper rest inside.

He said he had finished testing people inside to see if they could sleep.

"If someone can rest in a vehicle that moves at that speed, I want to see their face.... the time reduction is appealing, but I don't want to ride again if possible..."

"Hmm... there's still room for improvement. I got in myself to make sure I was comfortable. Everyone but me... the belt, the gust, Raleigh, they were all on board, but they were unanimous."

"Aren't all the hopers decibattlers?

"Nobody else has to name them....."

Apparently, the carriage was not popular.

Do you already have an accommodation to review the carriage design later?

"That should be it. It seems to be an inn named Dragon's Tail...."

"Ah, it's an inn we always use when we come to King's Landing. You know who took the lodge. Then this way."

The hotel that arrived under Lake's guidance was only taken by the King's associates, and there was a sense of luxury in it.

He was particularly concerned about security and had to check his ID when he entered the hotel.

Even so, it seems that merchants and adventurers are the main customers rather than the aristocrats.

Well, if there's anything particularly interesting, it's not like that.

Rather, the problem is with Gengar.

"In the meantime, there was a star on the Ajito place on the machine... but you don't have one base there, do you?

After all, there was only one source of information from the destroyed adventurer.

Perhaps the perpetrator of the raid was in a position near the end of the organization that did not provide much information.

Incidentally, one of them usually operates as a tavern.

"If such an idiot only had a base, we'd be dead by now. However, it will take some time to investigate other things, right?

I have a plan for that.

It was even Lake who raised his hand. Not only is he good at interpersonal combat, but he also has a wealth of knowledge of bandit extermination.

What kind of operation?

First, Kaede goes to their base.

"So you're going to fight? I don't think it's a plan...."

"No, I'm going home normally. They're not stupid enough to mistake frogs for just drinking. It's hard to think of selling a fight to a frog without any preparation unless you get your hands on it. Run or else I'll set a trap for my next visit."

"If you escape, how do I find a way to escape? What if they set a trap?

Given the power of the Lakes, it would be easy enough to follow them if they escaped.

If you choose who you want to wear, you should be able to easily determine the location of the asite.

But if they don't get away, it'll be too much trouble.

"I've been thinking about how to deal with a trap. If they set a trap, we'll first go near the Ajito building and stake it out."

And then?

"Next, Kaede beats up their strongholds. Mercia is safe in this inn."

"I see, this inn can be trusted. By the way, there's supposed to be a trap in the shop. How safe am I?

"If the frogs beat him up, the trapped ones would escape. Put it there."

"I see, even if you don't run away, you'll be forced out. That way, we can pull together their bases by tomorrow. By the way, how safe am I?

"This is a safe operation."

"How?

"For your own safety, we use frogs that don't kill to decoy."

Hey, escort.

It was a terrible abandonment of duty.

By doing so, he was trying to push his client into the middle of where the enemy had set a trap.

"It was Mercia who asked me to escort you. You don't have to protect Kaede."

... speaking of which, my client was Mercia.

But then Lake and the others will have to follow Mercia's instructions.

And Mercia shouldn't be willing to send me, the owner of the Chamber of Commerce, to such a dangerous place alone.

Let's follow Mercia's judgment here.

I entrusted Mercia with judgment in order to make the dangerous operation a little more decent.

Mercia will live up to my expectations.

"I see. Let's go with Lake's plan."

... that?
