Lesson 2: The Reward of the Gemstone Nobility
"Crusade complete"
Together with Mr. Ottner, we reach the city where Mr. Garland waits.
The adventurer's guild is ahead of us.
The fact that the crusade has already been completed on the instructions of Mr. Ottner, who saw the demonic crusade, has been delivered to Mr. Garland's waiting city.
He rented a place in the Adventurer's Guild because the handover of the crusaded demons would also take place.
"Hey, even the guys who took down that spider."
"You don't look very strong."
This, too, is the usual routine.
Our strengths are not known where we first went, and we can't help but be suspicious because we have achieved accomplishments that are not commensurate with the strength of our appearance.
Well, this time the crusade of demons sitting in the open land, the livery policy of the lord.
One of my neighbors accompanied me to see the crusade, but I suspect he is deceived.
"Should I let you out here?
"Please."
Mr. Garland asks me to remove the spider demons from the storage ring.
The secret toolbox (item box) cannot be used in places where many people gather, so space was secured in advance so that it could be put in.
"Ooh......"
I get cheered when I see the big spider demon.
No more evidence.
Everyone was convinced that troublesome demons had been crusaded because some of the humans in the Adventurer's Guild had confirmed the demons from a distance.
"Is this what they are?
Mr. Garland, who approached Mr. Ottner, was asking in a whisper.
I guess it's a consideration that kept people around me from asking if there was a problem, but it sounded round in front of our status.
"That's..."
Mr. Ottner is going to be hard to say.
It could have been misunderstood if they put it that way, but Mr. Garland waited for a word nearby that he had known for many years.
"It happened in a moment. If you think you were beaten and blown away, the demon's body was turned into two pieces with a sword that you had pulled out at some point even though you were away."
"Right..."
I guess it just looks that way to the amateur.
But that's all there is to it.
"By the way, I'm a crusading demon..."
"I'll give it to you."
I can't think of a way to use it effectively when I bring it back.
She never wants to cook just spider meat either, so she was just having trouble disposing of the meat.
Spider demons are traded at high prices because of a variety of other yarns that are purified in the body.
However, I refuse to dismantle the women because I refuse to do it alone, but it would be more meaningful to sell them off even if they were somewhat bought out to collect the yarn with such hassle.
That's why I sold it to the Adventurer Alliance.
"Well..."
Mr. Garland gave me a beautiful box.
When I received it and let me check the contents, it was the amber of "Shards of the Fruit of the Divine Tree".
"Are you sure this is what you want?
"Of course you don't mind."
I'm sure for Mr. Garland, the crusade of demons who also made victims.
Naturally, it was dangerous, so I guess I can't believe you took on the request with one gem.
But for us, what's in the amber is important.
"Thank you"
Put the amber in the storage ring...... [magic conversion] while pretending. I just imagine how much magic I can get, and it's become fun and unbearable.
- All right!
It was only about the size of the shard.
Still got as much as 100 million magic.
With all this, I can afford magic, so I can get my hands on expanding the labyrinth.
"What are you going to do now?
"I think it's time to go home because I'm not going to make it to the end of the year"
From Ament territory east of the Glenvarga Empire to Alistair, the periphery of the Kingdom of Metis, more than half a month will be required if you travel normally using carriages and such.
And it's winter now. Unexpected troubles and climate breakdowns may take longer.
...... that's the general view.
However, [Metastasis (Warp)] can be used and we can return to Alistair in an instant.
Still, there was also the possibility of getting into trouble later if you didn't declare the travel time if you moved normally.
"That's why I'm going home after all the cash changeover and other procedures."
"That's a shame. I was thinking of inviting you to my house for dinner."
That makes things more troublesome.
Adventurers are personally invited to an aristocratic dinner party.
It's not exclusive, but it's like advertising itself that some connection is between nobility and adventurers.
For adventurers who want a connection with nobility as a post-retirement life, it may be a reward they want so much that they can get their hands out of their throats, but for those of us who are not going to leave Alistair, it will only be a shackle.
"Right."
Mr. Garland also pulled back to see if he understood somehow.
Maybe I just suggested it under no good from the start.
The Adventurer Alliance assessment is over.
Three gold coins.
It would be like this because it is the amount after deducting the demolition and other fees.
Besides, the main reward for success this time is "Shards of the fruit of the Divine Tree". Compared to that, my heart doesn't move where I was loaded with gold coins.
"Well, let's go home"
Everything that needs to be done in this city is over.
Gather all your family and head outside the city.
Even though I didn't get out of the city, if I went back to Alistair on [Metastasis], the process would be troublesome, and I can't do it where people are.
Therefore, it is necessary to [transfer] outside the city that is not visible to people.
Mr. Garland will follow us outside the city.
"Can the lord bother to drop you off?
"That's all I'm thankful for. If you ever need to stop by, I want you to visit me even if you don't have business."
It's not easy to visit a lord for nothing.
I don't know why, but Mr. Garland likes it, so he wants to string it up.
"So..."
I saw the gate.
When I said goodbye and tried to leave the city, I heard a noise.
"So I'm telling you to let me through!
"Something with adventurers like you."
There was a female adventurer who was stopped from entering the city by two spear-held gatekeepers.
The female adventurer looked familiar.
That's the same with Mr. Garland. I see him stopped by the gatekeeper and his expression is getting bluer and bluer. Nothing but disrespect given their other status as adventurers.
"Let me through anyway!
"If you really say you're an A-rank adventurer, we should be able to get through this easily."
"So if I do that now, it's gonna be a problem."
The emperor's side room wanted to enter the city, but he knocked down the gatekeeper for it.
Even if there is a reason, it does not change that it is problematic behavior.
"Ah, Mars! And the Sylvias!
Over there - Sonia noticed us approaching the gate, too.
I noticed Mr. Garland's presence rather than the gatekeeper approaching us...
"What the hell is all this fuss about?
"I'm sorry. A girl offered her ID to enter the city, but she offered something she didn't quite understand. And then I said I was an adventurer, and I didn't have it because I wanted to leave my adventurer card."
"Something I'm not sure about?
"This way."
Show Mr. Garland the ID the gatekeeper kept and put in his nostalgia.
I can't stop Mr. Garland sweating over that cluttered treatment.
"This is the identity card only the Emperor authorized the Imperial family to possess."
"Huh......!?
"She's the sideroom of the next emperor. We must not treat former or wrongly civilians the same way we treat civilians."
The gatekeeper's expression also gets bluer and bluer.
Though a large city, the city gatekeeper, quite far from the capital, did not know about the identity cards that only those recognized by the emperor were allowed to hold.
Besides, I guess the response just now was clearly not a good attitude for the royal family.
"Oh, it's okay. It's such a small body that I'm used to not being treated like a woman."
Sonia says she doesn't make it a problem in an obvious way.
I just said I don't want to spend my time making that a problem because I'm in a hurry rather than saying I don't care.
"Will you all go back to Imperial Castle again? I have a little problem and I want to help everyone."
"Okay."
It is also unusual for Sonia, a Labyrinth family member, to panic so far.
We were told we were headed for Count Ament's territory. Must have rushed me at full speed after the problem occurred.
Maybe it's a problem in the mysterious labyrinth main relationship.
I also tried to get confirmation from Sylvia and the others, but they didn't object.
Running out of the city returns to Empire City for a few days on Sonia's [transfer] where it's no longer popular.
