High Load Training with the Cursed Devil's Sword!? - The Masked Adventurer Who Should Not Be Known - [Web Version]
[Episode 95: Accommodation Town]
Leaving Wang capital, three days were about to pass.
Fortunately, the itinerary went well with my initial concern.
Plus, thanks to having a good night's sleep in the city inn yesterday and all yesterday, I'm feeling well.
However, on the evening of the third day, I had a little problem in the lodging town where I stopped to pick up today's inn.
"All three houses are empty, you say?
"Yes, some big merchant squad seems to be subduing all the rooms..."
"Damn... that's not a good time..."
Zarido pretends to be your leader, but he is the captain who brings together a platoon of knights who are in this line.
I was concerned that that Zarido, who had gotten along a lot over the past three days, raised a little loud about the reports from his men, and I asked him what had happened.
"What's wrong with you? Mr. Zarido?"
"Lord Tris. Actually, they're filling all the inn rooms here as well as the inn I was going to stay in..."
This is a small lodging town along the street with only three inns.
If you're a top nobleman like His Highness Snore, you can hold back the next inn you're staying in, but it's common for adventurers like us, The Hidden Sword.
Well, of course I don't have that experience myself, so I heard...
"I can't help it all, and we can stay in the wild. We also bring tents, etc."
"Huh? Is a tent in that little package?
Shit... the tent is in Yuina's item box, so now we only have minimal baggage.
But when I was stuck in words for a moment, Yuina put out a helpship for me.
"And, Tris! Magic bags are really convenient!"
Yes, it was.
I also got a magic bag from my mother, Mamua, so it wasn't surprising that she had a tent.
"Oh, yeah. I thought you'd forgotten your tent, but I was in a magic bag. Ha ha."
"Oh! You're just an adventurer with a magic bag for some reason."
I've gotten along with Zarido over the last three days, but we have so many secrets, and when we cloud our mouths because of them, he's been nodding over and over like he said "I know," and he's misunderstood in an absolutely weird way...
Well, there's actually one side to being a 'masked adventurer', and Yuina's a summoner, so it's not a mistake, but there was definitely a growing sense of anticipation for our secrets in him.
Zarido was a pretty meeher person, contrary to the way he looked serious, although it would be nice to talk about it.
"Well, which area should we camp around rather than that?
This is a small lodging town with only three inns, but for once, it is surrounded by a protective wall that punches in a pile of marutai as an antidemonic measure, and some of it is safe if you go wild inside.
Including the other carriage, there will be six escorts, so as long as nothing happens.
"Oh, right. Excuse me. I'll talk to the folks behind me to find a place, so please wait here for a moment."
And when you make sure you don't see Zarido,
"Yuina. I'm sorry, but can you keep the tent out"
And, look back and ask Yuina.
"I've already got it out and put it there. But can't you sleep in bed today?"
Yuina says that, but from what I've heard before, she seems to be in the item box with a pretty fuzzy big blanket, so she must be more comfortable sleeping than sleeping in a lousy inn.
He seems to be buying my share, but it's a separate tent, and when he finds it, it's a hassle to explain, so I'm going to sleep around in a thin cape.
"If it even rained in us, I'd like to surround the fire under the starry sky and sleep in the miscellaneous fish."
"Oh, I wish I could say that."
"Yeah... I want to pull into a tent..."
Having that conversation, Mr. Zarido came back.
"Thank you for waiting. We found a place where two carriages could be pulled over and the tent could be stretched, so let's move there."
That's how we stopped the carriage on the outskirts of Inn Town and were supposed to camp together.
After that, after setting up the tent and everything, we all took turns going to dinner, and now there are four members of the "Hidden Sword" + Zarido, the platoon leader, who used the inn's dining room.
I couldn't get a room to stay, but I said that the meal was fine, so I was thankful to use it.
Honestly, it was a dish that I couldn't say was very flattering, but at least I was satisfied because I was eaten warm soup and freshly baked meat.
And Yuina, who was slow to eat, also finally threw her last bite into her mouth.
"Ugh... you're the vanilla I use for this meat dish... I'm a little bad at that.
That being said, I was eating without leaving it clean, but this doesn't mean Yuina eats it, it seems like it's because it's bad for the person who made it.
When I say it sounds like Yuina, it sounds like Yuna, but she was eating so disgusting that she didn't have to go that far and then sympathized...
So I guess I was eating pretty hard.
I felt a little sick even after I finished eating, so I decided to drink light alcohol after meals before going back.
Macy is the only one who drinks...
But waiting for us back in the camp in the mood was the figure of the destroyed carriage and the knights of the guards who were falling down with blood.
