I left the Count's residence in a good mood. I was never forced to hold back, nor was I asked excessive questions. From now on, the Count will still struggle, but if he's in trouble, he'll have something to help him do.
All right, then let's find the inn.
A knight stopped by there. I guess it was the gatekeeper guy.
"His Excellency the Count has asked me to show His Majesty the Demon King wherever he wishes. Please tell me what it is.
"Then I'd like an inn with a tavern. Got it? You don't have to worry about the customers.
"Ha! I'll show you!
I'm not going to drink, but Ko says he wants to.
I had a little talk with the knight on the road, but for a serious knight, the Jacobini kids seem pretty eye-catching. The job is appropriate and bribes are demanded. On top of that, there are strange connections with the slum dwellers, and the knights seem to rub each other in the inner circle all the time.
"This is an intermediate inn. There is also a tavern. How about this one!
"Oh, no problem. Thank you. Keep this.
Offer a piece of gold. It's not a bribe. It's a pure thank you for letting me work overtime.
"I'm sorry to ruin your feelings, but we can't be in line with them or anything.
"Right. I'm sorry about that. I couldn't think about it. Then I'll do this instead.
A purple cage hand. A fine knight like him would use it.
"Holy shit, what is this!?
"You know. Made of Murasaki metallic. It doesn't perform that well, but it's better than not. You can't call it a bribe because you gave it to the Count, too, can you?
"Oh, that's..."
I was forced to push it away.
"Then we're here. Or do you want to have a drink with me? Luxury?"
"Yes, no, thank you! I beg your pardon for this! Lord Demon! I want to make it a cage hand, a family heirloom, that you gave me!
"Oh, thank you for showing me around. See you later."
"Ha! Excuse me!
And the difference between a corrupt knight and a decent knight is too intense. Even I would give you one or ten gold coins, easy if you handled it decently this way.
Let's just say we get a room first, and then we'll have a drink at the tavern. I wonder if there's a bard or something.
"Come on."
"Is the room empty? I'd appreciate it if it was big.
"The biggest room is seven gold coins a night."
"See you there. Then order a meal and a drink. Have a good one.
"Yes, sir."
We moved to the tavern.
They say it's an intermediate inn, and the guests are there. I don't see a crude adventurer. What you see is a middle-sized merchant or just said a well-dressed adventurer?
And the food was carried. Fish on meat, vegetables. That's a pretty varied dish.
"Puypuy."
Tasty liquor? Good. Good.
"Gaugau"
A replacement? Morning. But I'll ask you to do it.
"You, the Demon King?
"That's what they call it.
"Is it still true? It's Mon doing adventurers around Count Donahamana territory. Townsee from" Buster Piers "is a monster.
"Curse de Martin. This snake is Cornelius. The wolf over here is kamui.
"I hear rumors. I want you to buy me a drink. Welcome to Lafort.
That's what the adventurer man put down a glass of booze. Do something serious. Let's take a sip and give Ko the rest.
"Thank you. I'll pay you back when I get here.
"I'm not going anywhere dangerous like that. We're safety first.
"I think that way of thinking matters.
I think I'm going everywhere. The furthest is the village of Dark Elves? It's farther than the eastern hizzle.
It's a bloated stomach, and let's just say I'm going to my room.
Sort of spacious. About the bedroom of my home in the Territorial capital.
"Gaugau"
The one from Kamui, can you wash it quickly? Leave it to me. I'll wash it.
"Puypuy."
Coe says she's going to bed now? That's fast. Then gently 'wash'. Okay, good night.
Kamui washed clean, a little early but I guess I'll go to bed too. There's been a lot going on, but I think I'll feel good about going home tomorrow.
