Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

Karan Cologne......

Gallic............!

"... yeah? What noise?

"Something... sounds like the door wasn't built well, huh? Shit.

Waltz and Lucia open the large doors of the Alchemy Guild and enter its buildings. At that time, on their overhead ceiling, there seemed to be a sign that they hooked something up, but Waltz said the door was distorted and they just hooked it at that corner...

"Sister, could you..."

"... let's see"

When Waltz said so, he glanced over the building, magnificently avoiding the sharp gaze directed from Lucia. Fortunately, there were very few people there, and there was only one woman in the guild staff behind the counter, and no one seemed to have noticed Waltz hit the entrance with manoeuvre armor but Lucia.

Some of the buildings they came to seemed very different from Waltz's imaginary ”guild”. A tall shelf stretches near the ceiling, hissing in rows, loaded with biscuits... Otherwise, it looked like a warehouse and office with several desks. No, actually, I guess it's a combination of warehouses that keep the items used for alchemy.

"(Is this what a guild looks like?

Waltz expected the sight of a guild that is common in different worlds, with those belonging to the guild entering and leaving frequently and stripping the requisition from the bulletin board that was there, taking it to the reception -. However, in contrast to that expectation, Waltz seemed a little sorry to see that sight that was idle.

It should be noted that only a very limited number of vendors, such as blacksmiths, enter and leave this guild. Besides, in this world, where magic was developed, science tended to be flouted (but not), so it seemed impossible without people here. Incidentally, if you are an "Adventurer Guild” with a wide mouth for the average person, you can't be an example and it can still be a big day.

Because he didn't know that, or Waltz gave him a suspicious look and grumbled like this.

"You're not in the wrong place...?

"What?"

"Yeah, it's nothing..." Shh.

Waltz shook his head against Lucia before heading to the counter, chomping. She was a lot of people and didn't like cluttered places, but on the contrary, even if there were too few people, she would be anxious.

"Um... sorry."

Before Lucia was there, you couldn't be dented forever, and when you stood at the counter, Waltz threw his voice at the woman who was in the back.

Then a woman who looked like she was paperwork on her desk stopped her hand and came to the counter where Waltz and Lucia waited. And she, floating her sales smile, says:

"Welcome. What can I do for you today?

"Er... can you please appraise and buy metal?

"Yes, of course you can. The appraisal will cost you, are you sure?

"Ah, yes. Of course I don't mind that. By the way, I'm hoping to get an appraisal of this, how much does it cost?

That said, on the counter, a waltz with a big fist metal, gently placed. At that time, the wooden counter was making noise with the mistletoe because it was still poorly built?

"This way...... by the way, where and how did you get it? Therefore, the amount of the analysis will change…"

"Uh... the Lord asked me (or Sasa) to, and I just brought it, so I can't answer the” where ”question. With regard to the question" how ", is it a by-product of iron refining?

"Right...... ok. The amount of the analysis is likely to be about 10,000 gold"

Listen to that.

"Yes, 10,000......?

- And Lucia, who seemed suspicious of her ears because the amount was higher than she had imagined.

In contrast, Waltz didn't seem surprised and decided to have him appraised for that amount. They decided it was worth leaving it to the experts, even if they paid a little for it, because it was not parsable with their own sensors.

"Yeah, well, so, please"

"Yes, I did. May I borrow this item, please?

The receptionist wears white gloves and tries to lift the object that was left on the counter with her mouth.

But...

…………

- As if she were going to pantomime, she just showed the bare gesture of lifting fist large metal, and there never seemed to be any sign of metal moving off the spot.

"............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... ♪ Puffy ♪

"Um... shouldn't I be forced? This is one, so I have about 20 kg..."

"............... Yes?

"No, so it's 20 kg in one of these. If you hold it weird, your hips, they get worse, don't they?

…………

And a solidified receptionist woman. Needless to say why she has solidified.

Then the woman, who gave up carrying it on her own, seems to have brought a man of guild staff from another room and managed to carry that mysterious metal to the back of the office by two persons. According to her story, all over the day, it seems to take time for the appraisal, and it will be tomorrow for the results of the analysis to come out?

The Waltz, who heard about it, paid 10,000 gold for the appraisal, left the guild behind to head to their next destination.
