It was visible from a distance, but a huge castle and a vast wall covering it.
The castle stands abruptly in the middle of the plain.
Apparently, the city is all within that wall.
"You've finally arrived. Mr. Logan, will the reward be received in the capital's guild? As soon as we get inside the walls, can we head right for it?
"Ha, yes...... I am so sorry"
"It would be helpful if someone could put one on me just to guide me to the guild, could you?
moat and bouncing bridge, which would be five metres wide.
Suggest while also passing through a robust entrance to guard.
You don't want to be on your side for a second, you know.
Fortunately, one of us is headed to the guild to report, so we decided to follow that person.
I break up with Mr. Logan, who seems sorry until the end, and head to the guild with the lady knight who came to my room the other day.
For some reason I turn bright red and turn away when I try to close my eyes, but let's not worry about it because it's adorable.
"Do knights live in this city?
"Yes, it is. I'm usually a city guard, but this time it's sudden..."
"I see, that was a disaster. Speaking of which, you were looking for me?
"Yeah, yeah. Well, Lord Lue asked me to call him..."
Wasn't it exclusive to that man?
Old and young men were walking freely in the city despite the night, and that was telling the story of good security.
In addition to robust protection, the city is well guarded.
Isn't it a paradise place for residents?
Walk up the street and look up at the castle that soars in the center of the city.
When I think that's where I summoned the Japanese, although I'm a little concerned, I'm not even thinking about going back and soon I'm less interested.
Rather, if in the past the Japanese have also been summoned, I am concerned about the dining conditions in this city, where the benefits may be rooted.
"I don't know if I left sake..."
"Oh, there is, isn't there?
"More on that story."
Knight, you just said something really important.
I take my hand.
"Make sure you get that place. Learn more about what liquor it is if you can and where and when it was made"
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
Goddamn it, you fucking heat-running bastard.
The season is still winter, but what's going on?
"Kai-kun, get your hands off me. I get grumpy."
"Don't proclaim it yourself. Yakimochi - you son of a bitch."
"Oh, come on."
Yes, yes. Let's connect with your hands.
It is a lover connection. You're going to have a plain shoulder pain in this, when you're in different walks.
"This is the headquarters of the Lark Adventurer Alliance. It's time, and there's no crowd."
"Really, thank you. Thank you for your information on sake."
"Yes, no. Then I have a report. So here we go."
Within the guild it was structured like a big city hall.
A magic guide that displays a number at a point of contact divided by requirement.
I know it's Oink's influence, but it's Japanese somewhere.
Fortunately, I'm a black card, so I don't have to wait, so I'm headed to the report on my request.
Excuse me, sir, but I've been asked to accomplish the request and perhaps receive it from Director Oink.
"Now, please present your card."
"Go ahead."
It is Oink who has developed this vast guild building, and the organization now called the guild, to this point, although he is not the founder.
And it's also at its apex.
I'm in a hurry for my friend's feat just to look a little smaller.
"I got confirmation. Master Kaivon, right? Please accept this reward and this card"
"Yes, thank you"
What was handed to me was a blue, transparent card, not black.
I hesitate to know how to handle my hands, which are neither metal nor glass.
"Your card is made of blue diamond, which has been specially ordered by an alchemist. The rank name is not an exaggeration when it comes to the right arm of the 'SS' substantive general manager. Later, the royal family will officially issue a warranty."
"How effective exactly is it?
"It is the power of command over all humans belonging to the Alliance in an emergency. This is above the guild length of each branch. Also here on the 'Endrecia' continent, on par with the Duke, in the 'Semifinal' the aristocracy has been abolished, but we will exercise the same power as the lords who govern each region."
... Awesome.
Speaking of dukes, aren't you a bunch of people with blood connections to the royal family?
When it comes to equivalence with that, does Oink himself really have comparable powers to the royal family?
Inside, I thought you might be talking, but was it true?
"From this point on, you can use all facilities, including the salon on the top floor."
"Oh, really? Well, what about the restaurant meal here..."
"Everything, it's free"
Yes, I'm here. I got the right to all-you-can-eat and drink.
I don't know what to hide, there are a few stores here in the capital that offer sake, and they say the best range of products is the restaurant here.
Does it also serve as a discount for people who belong to the Alliance and as a way to keep the adventurer closer to the average person?
Thank you, Oink. I'll finish your shipment.
"Reward for Lue's share, 25000 lux."
"Thank you. I envy Kai-kun's EX rank at times like this."
"Hehe, I actually got promoted to SS rank this time. Look, it's a rank and a card just for me."
"Ah! What a beautiful thing that is! You can trade me for mine!
"You just can't. You should do something amazing and talk to Oink."
"... as long as the Seven Stars are defeated, no I can't... even if there's a war there..."
"What are you talking about, this girl?"
Do you want me to go that far?
Then I tell Lue that the restaurant food and beverage here is free and the two of us head over.
It's open on the third floor here and looks a lot more crowded today.
Already queued, and all the chairs in the waiting space have been filled.
Then I went barely next to such a line to the store.
This disloyalty, superiority, and slight shame! Oh, my God!
"Sir, as you can see, it's very crowded right now, and I'm sorry -"
"Take this."
Suddenly remove is a clear blue card.
"... what is this?
"Huh!?
"Sorry, please line up at the rear."
What's going on, Barovo!
"Kai-kun, how do you feel now? Hey, how do you feel?
"Ugh, annoying! Shut up and line up!
Is that it? Haven't you been able to communicate the details yet?
That's right, it's just been delivered, and it's a new rank, and this is what's gonna happen.
It was a detour. Are you out of your mind that I kind of feel like there's a strange collection of gaze around me from earlier?
"Sorry, is that Master Caivon!?
"Yes, I do,"
"My name is Cesar and I am the manager of this restaurant. Excuse me earlier! We'll show you to the VIP room in no time!
"Ah, yes. Sorry about that."
Has the receptionist contacted you or a magnificent man who should say monocle on his swallow tail suit is exactly what Gentleman is supposed to say, and he will be escorted to the store.
I refuse to take Lue with me.
Oh, my gaze is gathering. But now you're uncomfortable the other way around. Here.
What was guided was a private room where you could see both the inside of the store and the outside of the building before climbing the loose spiral stairs in the restaurant.
The set on the table was also luxurious at a glance, plus a sister-in-law waiting for her.
but I ask you to leave the room if you don't need it this time.
"That's kind of an awesome place. I have to thank Oink."
"... wow, I really have sake"
Look through the menu quickly.
"Junmai Ginjo" "Pearl on a pig" "
"Storage Hiya Grated in the Snow" Pork Brocade "
"Junmei Daiginjo" "Dungeon Back Comparison" "
Although the naming is terrible.
"Hmm, what's this?
One of them, one brand with a different colour than the others.
"Special Junmei Daijin" bond ""
"The finest delicacies from Guild Director Oink. In a precious moment to drink with someone special."
... I wonder what this is.
I am attracted to the power of it and place an order.
Although it may be slightly tight as a drink before meals.
"Kai-kun, there are many dishes you don't know."
"But you can't have pork dishes that are obviously put together in small pieces at the end of the menu. Just platter pork skewers, please."
"... it's not like coming to this store and asking for it."
What was carried was a beautiful armour-colored bottle.
The label says' bond 'in masterful brushstrokes.
The food hasn't been brought yet, but I pour it out of curiosity.
"Oh, I was going to pour it"
"That was a waste of time. Even though drinking at the mercy of a beauty is extraordinary."
"No, please don't. That's what I'm saying..."
Stick your mouth to a glass cup that resembles a beautiful incision, keeping that figure of shame intact.
Moments, gorgeous sweet aromas filling your mouth and flavors and flavors that wash away the air.
The moment it passes through your throat, its mellow flavor replaces a single knife-like slice, through your throat.
This is... to the effect that I would mistake it for sweetness because of the fragrance because of the dryness.
"... that's good booze. I miss that."
"Do you miss it? Have you ever had a drink?
"Well, try the rue, too."
Think about this liquor as you pour it on your rue.
In the game days, everyone was talking about local liquor, buying it on the street and comparing it to drinking it.
And to thank you and where I live, I delivered my favorite local liquor to everyone.
It was an event when I recognised that we were not hesitant to give the address, but this liquor tasted much the same.
Well... Oink remembered me well drinking that liquor.
And the name you reproduced here and gave it is' bond '?
"... to the habit of pigs, you're so busy"
Kai-kun, are you crying?
"Never mind. The liquor just went to a strange place."
My heart is a strange place.
