"Master Alphonse, would you please allow me to accompany you?

"Huh? Are you going with Sula? You all right? You all right?

"Yes, please. I think this old bone is going to be helpful with little effort."

A shrine in the city of variants.

So we had a banquet for three days and three nights.

Apart from those who joined the Barca mercenary regiment, they came to the temple and were overflowing.

Some drop off young people who become mercenaries, others give them farewell.

Conversely, some of them wanted to go, but they stayed out of the mercenary regiment, and they were stuck in the liquor while complaining.

After spending those days, Sula said that the night before her departure.

Sura is an old woman playing a role in this variant.

A woman who lived here long before the city was established and was the head of the settlement.

It is said that he made a deal with the Ars brother who came there and created the basis for the current variant.

If Sula hadn't developed a good working relationship with Mr. Ars, there wouldn't be a variant.

That's why all the people here respect Sula.

The Sula told me she wanted to go with her.

I wonder what to do.

To put it bluntly, I don't need Sura.

Because you can't be a fighter no matter what you think.

I also hear that there is a distance from the variant to Orient Country.

I wonder if it is okay to take the old man along the way as he moves across a number of mountains and rivers.

Take her with you, Alphonse.

"Yeah? Is Ian in favor of Sura joining the mercenary regiment?

But there was an unexpected voice.

It's Ian.

Atmos warrior Ian is in favor of taking old Sula with him.

I was so surprised by the words I heard back.

"I can't really use it as a mercenary. But it's better to have him."

"Why? You mean to show me the way?

There is one too. Hey, Sula. You've been to the Small States a couple of times, haven't you?

Kaka That's right, Atmos warrior Ian. Because I looked like this, and I was young. I've been to small countries a few times. "

"So you mean while you're staying at the inn on the way?

"Exactly. I also know him on the way to the small nations. I've stayed there before."

That's right.

"No, I don't even know if it's true. Something good about having a halfway house experience?

"Of course. We mercenaries are basically everything we trust. It can be said that the existence value is determined by whether it is credible or not. However, this Balkan mercenary regiment still lacks any credibility. That's why it's hard to get a place to stay."

"That's right, Alphonse, it's not that easy to find a place to host a group of more than 100 armed men. If we just get close to the village, we'll be judged dangerous."

"Oh, I see. That's true, right? Well... I can't use a magic airship anymore, and I have to walk long distances. I had to think about getting a place to stay and act."

"It's not just the inn. You may also need to gather information about food supplies, road conditions, or whether there are bandits. Of course, with Alphonse, Elvis, and Ian, it's usually okay. But we also need to solve everything and move on. With me, the hardship will be reduced slightly."

"Is it okay for Sura to buy me a negotiator? Then I won't complain. But are you sure? Long-range travel is tough at Sula's age. Why do you think you're following me?

"Of course, to repay my gratitude. It is thanks to Arus that this variant now exists. We will not forget the thanks we have received. I'll give it back to you. That's why there are no other opportunities like this."

"Okay. Well, I'll be grateful to receive the reward on behalf of Mr. Ars. Elvis agrees with Sura, right?

"Yes, of course. Sula-sama, let's help Alphonse together."

I didn't expect an old man like Sula to join the mercenary regiment.

But I don't think this is a bad thing.

Indeed, I should have thought more about what I would do if I had been told.

If there's a big city, it might be a place where all the mercenaries can stay.

But in a small village, 100 mercenaries are nothing but a threat.

Of course, it wouldn't be strange to think of it as dangerous.

Similar mercenaries make Atmos warriors different.

Originally known as a family of mercenaries.

Being a warrior of Atmos is worth a fortune.

Moreover, Atmos warriors are often hired individually rather than collectively.

Normally it's not a giant body, so I've never been so worried about the inn.

Elvis, by the way, had been in the army and had been acting.

The army is also a Balkan army made by Mr. Ars.

Prepare to go anywhere and make various arrangements, but it appears that there was a dedicated rear support unit.

Even if you have combat experience, it is only on the side of the United Kingdom of Fontana.

If I don't know anyone in the east, I'm not that bright in geography.

Elvis will not be able to handle all the preparations.

All right, I'll have Sula tell Eye about the area.

Ai would do such a negotiation well.

Thus, having noticed a small problem before leaving, I finally decided to leave.
