Nine days have passed since the graduation process at the school, and Allen and the others are in a hotel in Wangdu.
This hotel is for royal aristocrats in the King's Capital of the Kingdom of Latarsh.
(As always, it's a historic city)
Allen was alone, staring down at the castle town through the morning sun's slipping window.
I learned in school classes that the King's Capital of the Kingdom of Latarsh has never been a transitional capital since its founding.
Thanks to this world like medieval Europe, the streets are even more quaint.
And unlike the school city built in fifty years or so, there are no magic trains running in this king's capital either.
I can see carriages and people going out the window.
Allen and the others are staying at this hotel, a meeting place between General Lucidolar and Elder Philamail, who came from Rosenheim. Allen and the others arrived at the hotel late last night, but we were able to tell them that.
As planned, I say we can head to the royal castle this afternoon.
Make yourself comfortable easily and Allen heads to the entrance on the ground floor.
"Morning. Keel's the best."
Keel is taking his time alone on the couch at the luxury hotel entrance.
(Didn't get much sleep?)
"Oh, good morning"
"What? Is that a thought? I can't help but worry about it."
"Oh, I know. I mean, Allen can take it easy."
Well, I'm not interested in nobility.
(None at all)
"Seriously. How can a serf live and say he's not interested in nobility? That's what previous memories make you do?
Keel wants to use Rosenheim's achievements in the war to return to his nobility.
You may say that you have come to the King's Capital for that.
Reconstruct the Kalnell family, and make a place for my sister Nina and her servant to return.
For that reason he came to the school city and also took part in the war in Rosenheim.
This time, two people, a heavy town in Rosenheim, wish to see the king, but all Allen and the others have already told him that they will be present at the sight.
"I guess that's why I'm not interested. Well, I hope Keel's wish comes true, because he's that king. You don't expect too much."
"I know. But are you glad I made that stuff?
"Isn't that okay? I don't have any proof."
Keel seems to feel like he did something wrong.
Allen says it's no problem.
(Everyone says they have something important.)
What Allen's people want is different from each other's birth and position.
Born as serfs and civilians, and having been knights since he was a little girl, Krena and Dgola still feel like they admire knights.
Sophie cares about Rosenheim, and Formar is putting her life on Sophie's guard.
Everyone has different things that matter, but Allen has become a party leader and is on his way to one goal.
"Oh, you're early."
"Right."
Keel answers as usual to Cecil, who came down with a good demeanor.
(Speaking of which, I wonder what Cecil's most important thing is. I wonder if it's revenge on my late brother, Mr. Mihai. Occasionally, he confronted the Demon King's army with tough eyes.)
I feel like Cecil is the only fellow who is true to his own thoughts. I'm happy to have been a Great Mage mentor, but that's not true if they tell me that's all.
Tomas, a two-year-old brother who has already graduated from the House of Lords and works at the Royal Castle while studying to succeed the Granvel family, is supposed to have it.
"Well, we're all here, and we're going to the Adventurer Guild"
As we do so, we have all of our people, so Allen issues the decree.
In the morning, Allen and the others walk to the Adventurers Guild.
It's ahead of us on our way to the main street.
(We're at Adventurer Alliance headquarters. Dr. Carlova came to school for Krena, but I wonder if she's still in school)
The headquarters of the Adventurer Guild's Kingdom of Ratash, an organization without borders, can be seen in minutes on foot.
I think you've just met Dr. Carlova, who has the talent of a swordsmith, before he goes to Rosenheim.
The receptionist asks me about the matter, so I tell him I came to receive the bid I won at the auction.
Please wait here for a moment.
That's what they say, they pass it through to a private room, and after a while, they put it in a trolley and carry something big. Because of its weight, the wheels of the trolley cannot withstand the weight and it is making a galloping noise.
"It looks pretty big, but are you sure you're okay?
Keel says worried as the Adventurer Alliance official looks at what he has brought heavy.
"Maybe I'll be fine."
"No, Allen, I asked Dogola."
……
Dogola is silent and holds up with one hand the handle in the center of what the Alliance officials have brought.
"You could have. Looks like you could use it with both hand axes?
"Oh, I think I should probably. But it's pretty heavy."
Dogola holds a two-handed axe with his right hand and holds the big shield made of the winning Adamantite on his left.
(You mean it depends on the power of Dogola? I wonder if it will dissolve if the level rises)
After Rosenheim's wars and Demonic and Demonic wars, Allen thought there was something missing from this party.
That's the whole party's defense.
With the aid of Allen, Keel, and Sophie, the endurance of the status increases, but I'm still anxious to protect the whole party.
Especially in the Battle of the Superior Demons and the Battle of the Demons, it was a pretty tough fight.
What matters in battle is the balance between offense and defense.
The S-level dungeon I'm about to attack seems to have A-rank Warcraft treading.
Even Rosenheim told Hermios that there were many A-rank Warcraft and only about three fought at the same time, but not quite so in S-class dungeons.
For Krena to take charge of the offensive surface with a two-handed sword, Dogola will be asked to take charge of the defensive surface so that he can handle a large shield.
The operation is that if your status increases further and your skill level in shielding increases, you will be able to handle it naturally.
"Axes and shields are pretty heavy. Good luck with that."
"Oh."
An Alliance official waiting near the entrance comes under Allen and the others as they do so.
"Is there anything wrong with the item?
"Yes, definitely. How much did you win the bid for?
"Yes, it will be 3600 gold coins, including fees"
"One moment please"
You didn't even give me 5,000 gold coins.
That said, Allen prepares 3600 gold coins. Allen says he'll pay for this big Adamantite shield.
Everyone can't afford that much money because they won the status 1000 increase ring.
I have about a few hundred pieces, but I don't even have 3600 gold coins.
Previously, I said that Allen would pay for these things with his initial investment.
And I'm telling my people to continue to accommodate each other this way.
Get rare weapons, protective gear, and magic items if you put them in an S-Class dungeon.
But it's hard to imagine that what you need will be equally available to different people.
In the future, when a rare item is available during a dungeon attack, he tells someone in his crew not to care if it results in bias.
"Definitely. Thank you for using Adventurer Alliance."
Adventurer Alliance officials don't seem uncomfortable when Allen and the others, who are not even fifteen years old, bring 3600 gold coins. Apparently there's information in there that Allen and the others have already dominated five A-level dungeons.
"No, and then we want to recruit Demon Stones of E, D and C rank as much as possible. May I?
"Absolutely."
(We were looking for them in the school city, but we'll buy them as much as we can.)
When Allen returned to the school city, he resumed recruiting demon stones.
Because as a result of Rosenheim's participation in the war, both demon stones and healing pills have been reduced.
In the future, there will be a lot fewer chances to defeat Warcraft below the C-rank, so if there is a time to recruit, we will recruit.
I don't know what's going to happen and I'm going to need tons of demon stones.
(Well, recruiting like a ghost in the Ratash kingdom of a small country doesn't change the market)
The biggest exporter of Demon Stone is the Baukis Empire. Anything seems to be the reason why there are the most dungeons in all countries. They also have a lot of adventurers, and as long as there is a Bawkis Empire, the Demon Stone price is stable.
By the way, the biggest importer is Rosenheim. Rosenheim says there aren't many dungeons. Demon stones were basically often bought from the Gearmoot Empire.
The Gearmut Empire says it is to a somewhat greater extent exported.
Allen calls for 10,000 units of Demon Stone and asks him to mail it to Viscount Granvell's Hall if he fails to come and pick it up because he will also pay a fee.
"Well, we have to go to the royal castle soon."
Allen thinks all we have to do is go to the royal castle because we got the big shield and recruited the demon stone as well.
It was to return to the hotel where Admiral Lucidolar and Elder Philamail were located.
