Fans will answer as much as I can to what I want to know, but asking all the questions from the start will be less polite.

At first I decided to enjoy the sake I had. This seems to be dairy too, but it is distilled and the taste, aroma and appearance are completely different from the horse milk I ordered. The name of the sake is "Arhi". Because the color is transparent and distilled spirits, the scent of alcohol is strong. In addition, it seems to be a high-quality liquor that has been redistilled.

When you drink a sip, you will feel a fire burning from the throat to the chest, which is characteristic of strong sake, and then a faint milk scent will pass through your nose. What a unique sake. But delicious. The refreshing horse milk was also delicious, but the response was definitely better for Arhi. A strong feeling of drinking sake that took root in the prairies was obtained. This must be done by Garraf who is studying sake. Absolutely a souvenir.

"How about Spiralka Arhi?"

Asked by the fans, I responded with a smile.

"It's great. It's a strong sake, but I really like it."

"That was good. Do you want to order extra food?"

"No, just sake is enough. I'm full with the noodles."

"Hahaha, it's a specialty of this shop, it's not only delicious, but it's a reputation for being cheap and full of noodles."

Saying that, the fans blow Archhi all at once. It's like a pretty drinker to be able to drink such a strong drink at once. I'm a strong person too, but maybe my fans are better. You have to be careful not to get caught in the opponent's pace and get drunk.

Fans like me, but I still don't know how much to trust. Exposing an unprotected figure in front of such an opponent is too dangerous. After drinking about half of the arhi poured into the glass, I will continue to listen to what I want to hear in a small talk.

"Isn't it a specialty after all? It was so delicious. But more than that, I was surprised that there were so many vegetables available. How do you buy it? I think that it is difficult to buy a lot of fresh vegetables just because it is developing as

When I ask, the fans make a meaningful smile.

"I have a field. There are so many."

"Well, where are many?"

"It's underground. There are many fields underground."

"Underground? Do you grow vegetables underground?"

When I curled my eyes, the fans gave me a detailed explanation. In addition to Spiralka, there are countless underground facilities in this prairie, where they grow fields and grow vegetables.

Of course, sunlight does not reach, but since there are multiple relics of the Jindai that emit light equivalent to sunlight, crops can be stably obtained regardless of the climate. This feature is also on board the ship, but I didn't expect any country to use it.

"The rainfall was low but the soil on the land was good, but for us the grasslands were sacred. Tilling the fields like other countries was contraindicated."

"So why is it underground?"

"That's what it is. Well, it's a relic of Jindai. It's almost fifty years since the underground cultivation has started now."

"Are you excavated from somewhere?"

"It seems that the Hao people have found. The Hao people were originally small tribes in the grassland, and they did not have a good pasture, so they hunted on rocky mountains. The power of the relics of the Jindai that were excavated from the rocky mountain made it a huge force in a matter of seconds. "

"It's amazing"

I heard he was a very innovative person. Even mastering the relics of Jindai is a big deal.

"Then, do the Hao people take charge of this area?"

"Half so half and half different. There are three countries in the prairie but they are not federal, and the head of the federal government is now the patriarch of the Hao family. But the basic autonomy is left to the three countries, because-"

Fans briefly told the history of the land.

In the past, tribes used to compete for land to graze livestock, but the powerful Hao succeeded in placing all tribes under their control. However, at that time, the patriarchs did not consolidate the tribe, but instead consolidated the tribes and divided the prairie into three countries. Each lord was represented by the Prairie Federation.

The Hao family did not rule the country directly, but only served as heads of the federal government, because of the rapid power gain and the lack of reliable subordinates. In other words, dispersing the clan to manage all of the prairie would make it harder to cope in the event of a coup.

At the same time, the invasion of the Northern Empire was so frequent that it was necessary to unify all tribes, but they knew that it was impossible for their own tribes to maintain their regime. So the governing itself was left to the heads of the three countries, and the Hao tribe was the coordinator.

"There was such a history."

"After fifty years, the situation is so stable that a coup is unlikely to happen, but the Hao do not seem to want to unify the three nations anymore. The power of the clan is terrible. "

"Then, if you get closer, it will be a good business."

So, I said, the fans laughed.

"That's difficult. I guess Quito might be a well-known merchant in Abu Simbel, but it's a nameless place here.

"Well, I'll go straight down."

"Yeah. Everything is the best. It's just a loss if you rush. Well, this is something else, can you introduce me to those who might help Quito?"

"That's a great help.

With the generosity of the fans, I decided to elaborate on my business again and share the connections I would need in this prairie.

By the way, fans seem to be mainly dealing with ceramics, and sake seems to be unspecialized. I tried to sell it for a long time, but I was refused because there was no plan to expand my business so far. Unfortunately, I can't force it, so I can't help.

"--Well, is it like this?"

"Thank you very much."

I wrote down everything I got from the fans. For a while, let's move on with this information.

"When talking to them, give me my name. It shouldn't be bad."

"I'll do that."

"Do you have anything else to ask?"

"I agree……"

I visited the prairie area and decided to ask for another purpose.

Onijin "Speaking of which, I was a little bit overheard. Is it true that a band of bandits appeared in this land?"

Onijin "It's true. That is definitely."

Onijin "But, they're the beasts who live in the eastern islands, right?"

"There's a terrible civil war right now. You've escaped from the war."

It's the same information that Varena purchased at Abu Simbel. I thought that there was a high possibility that the demon was mistaken, but from the perspective of the fans, he seems to be convinced that it was local.

"That means that you have clearly confirmed your appearance?"

Onijin "I have never seen it, but I can only think of the tricks."

"What?"

"I'm using a magical magic of a different system. If you stole something that appears like smoke, it disappears like smoke. And you can't find any hideouts that seem to have a barrier. If this is a known system, this mage can handle it. "

Demon Indeed, is that the case? It's very likely.

"It's annoying."

"Oh, it's a terrible troublesome person. Well, I know that if they overdo it, the subjugation squad will move in earnest, so it seems like they are setting various rules. If they don't steal too much or kill people, `` I know that from the crimes so far. ''

"I'm also aware of that."

"Hmm, but that doesn't mean it's forgiven. The situation is sympathetic, but it's different. There are a lot of merchants who have taken up a lot of debt because of them. I just have to wait. ''

"It's ... yes ..."

Onijin: "Because there are those guys, the beastmen will be discriminated. I'm not a beastman discriminator, I know that there are nice beastmen. I know I'm going to eat it, so I can't forgive any more. ''

Onijin This is an impeccable theory. There is no way that other beasts are blamed for actually committing a crime, but no one will be able to divide it completely. There are many beastmen who judge humans together.

Onijin This isn't an easy joy to know that you're there. Onijin Need more research, but in some cases it might be the catcher. Now that we are doing business in this land, we will not be able to overlook the troublesome people around us.

Well, you don't have to make a decision right now. Think carefully.

After hearing what I wanted to do, I decided to put my business talk aside and enjoy drinking while chatting with fans. If you think about it, it's been a long time since drinking alcohol with humans. That wasn't the case, but the story was booming and when I noticed, the outside was starting to darken.

I was worried that Nao and Islafil were waiting, and when I wanted to spend some time here, an unknown young man was approaching behind the fans.

"Fan, sorry for the fun. I'm in trouble."

The young man listens to the fans. The words were here, but partly because of my study.

Onijin "They stormed our merchant. Please come back soon."

"... I see, I'll go back soon."

The fan stood up and scratched his head frustrated.

"I'm gonna do the rumors. It's bad, but I'll give you time here. I'm all settled in, so rest assured."

"Thank you for everything"

"That's not a big deal.

I see off a fan waving over my back, and I sigh deep.

It's a demon bandit band ... it's going to be more troublesome than I thought ...
