Ihoujin, Dungeon ni Moguru

[14]

Five days after the journey, the old man and the boy arrived in King's Landing.

On the way, the horse died of aging and switched to walking.

Help merchants who were accidentally attacked by bandits and ride in their carriages.I took over a boat that could be carried by the carriage and arrived earlier than planned.

"That's better than I thought? It's smaller than Remlia."

As the boy thought, the kingdom of mankind's largest nation was small.

"What do you mean?"

The old man is also surprised.

The chateau of chalk remains intact. But before, the castle town was three times smaller than when the old man attacked. The biggest change is

"Grandpa, are you okay without the walls?

"You're not okay."

The huge and robust walls that have preserved a long history are no longer beautiful.More than half of the maze-like castle towns were rebuilt, transforming them into rectangular box-like buildings.

The most amazing thing is the boulevard that leads to the castle.The cobblestone is paved beautifully and there is nothing to prevent it.Countless street lights allow you to see people's feet at night.

If the Wesen army were to attack us now, we would be able to take control of the castle at once.

From a defensive point of view, it is also a good place to be defenseless.

Whether or not I knew that, the city was full of life.

The sound of a bustling tavern fills the streets.A wide variety of races are calling in hotels and whorehouses.Another change was that there were countless small stalls lined up with goods on rugs in the corner of the road.

The boy and the old man go through the city.

There is no end in sight, but in the back of the city, so as to be sucked into the light.

For the old man, the vibrancy of the city was strange.The roughness and chaos of people are thin.

Compared to an adventurous city like Remlia, it is still disturbing, noisy and rough when people gather.

Oh, the reason I saw the wrong man convinced me.

He looked like a casual townsman, but he was a sword-bearing soldier.If you look carefully, you can find several similar people.

(Are you monitoring and leading? Throughout the city?)

Impossible.

"Grandpa, that rug. It's all the same size."

"From the stall?"

Um, let me ask you something.

The boy left and went to a stall dealing in spices.

Talk about it, buy a pottery vial, and the boy comes back.

"Grandpa, look, it's our store's equipment."

Ah?

"Here, here."

The boy shows the seal of the cat on the bottom of the bottle.

"It's a sign of our shop.It's not going to be good, is it?The kelp salt inside is delicious.It was a good souvenir to be found across the ocean. "

Oh, wow.

The old man wonders how to react.

"Oh, yes, that rug, but under the laws of this city, stalls are only allowed to sell on top of the rugs that are supplied."

"Why?"

"When Lola comes, I'm trying to escape."

"Running away... maybe the wall?"

"I hear. If the Beast army comes at us, we'll get out of here quickly and without a fight.The city's new buildings also seem to be connected to the underground dungeon.They're going to run out of town through the basement. "

"... I'm surprised."

The traditional king's capital, which is the symbol of the country, is ready to flee, and even to the wall.

No, maybe it makes sense?

In the previous war, the Beast army set fire to the city, sealed off the gates of the walls and killed a large number of residents.However, the size of the Beast army today cannot surround the entire King's City.No, not even on the previous scale.

If we were to run away without fighting, the city would be right.

It's very thoughtful. Maybe it's new because it burned once.

The appearance of the city reflects that of the king.[The Last Prince], he may be a far different person than the old man thinks.

"I'm hungry. We're going to the right store."

"Grandpa, I like the shop there."

The shop referred to by the boy is a tavern with an inn on the second floor.

It's midnight earning time, but it doesn't seem to be thriving.

"Why?"

"The atmosphere is similar to that of Sigre's sister's shop.The front of the house is also beautiful and doesn't smell old oil.At night, I suppose, there is a limit to the number of alcohols.Maybe it's reserved. I'll be right there. "

The boy ran to the store like a dog.

The old man continues to be late.

"Grandpa, I've got two rooms.I ordered the food properly. "

The boy acted quickly.It's also strangely loud. Maybe you're feeling uplifted in a city you don't know.

The boy and the old man arrive at the table in the corner.

There were more guests than I had seen from the outside.The shop is full of mature couples.It's a bright and calm shop. Gentle lighting and decorative accessories make you feel at home.

The atmosphere of the shop is the same, but the customer's products are good.

Although there is a lot of laughter, there is no one who speaks loudly or makes noise with stupid laughter.

"As I thought, there were restrictions on the order of alcohol.My grandfather is also old, and you can put up with two bottles of alcohol, right? "

"The middle wine doesn't suit you."

Alcohol, my mother seems to like it, but I don't really like it.

"What does the kid say?"

"Will it taste better when you get older?"

"It's delicious, and I don't drink alcohol."

"What do you mean?"

"Drink alcohol with the scene.That way, the scene comes to mind every time I drink alcohol.Adventure bitterness: the fame of proud friends, the fame of proud oneself.Along with memories, alcohol is a good thing.If you just want to be an idiot, make yourself a woman over alcohol.It's a joke. It's a drink dish. "

Just now, the liquor was placed on the table.Quickly, the old man drinks with his own hands.

After all, it doesn't suit me.

You mean the taste of memories?I know that. Every time I eat my father's rice, I remember Japan.When my father says, "You don't remember," he somehow remembers that house. "

The dishes were arranged.

Lots of soup, stir-fried vegetables and meat, tough black bread.

Home cooking is common in the Central Continent.

I think it's a shop selling that kind of stuff.

"Hmm, it doesn't taste bad, but I think it's good.I think my rice tastes better. "

"Don't say luxury. Enough food."

That said, the old man agreed.

It is a subtle taste for strangers, but it may be a taste loved by locals.

"Do it, Grandpa. What are you going to do?"

Oh?

The boy listens without stopping eating.

"Do you work here?"

It doesn't seem to be an 'assassination' in public.

Somewhat distinguished.

"It's up to the other person. He thinks meeting people is the best entertainment."

"So, you wanted to see Grandpa, and you called him in with these guys? If it's a beautiful woman, it doesn't matter."

"Did you notice?"

I thought I was infidel on a tree.

"I tell you, I have better ears than my grandfather."

"Even if you have better ears and eyes than an old man, you won't be proud of anything."

"Let's stop talking nonsense from me as an adult."

The boy stretches his chest with a disgraceful face.

They went on eating silently and emptied the plates as soon as they mumbled.The old man began to drink the second bottle of wine.The boy also said "uhh" with a mouth of ale.

"Hey kid, have you ever been in a dungeon?"

"Of course, I lived in Remlia."

"I'll look at the sword. It's time to finish."

We don't have time.

"Huh, huh? I mean?"

There is also a dungeon underneath Elysion.If Lola attacked, she would run out of town through it.

On the other hand, you can go into the city through the basement.

And the dungeon is definitely stretching to the bottom of the castle.

"If you want to see me, let's get out of here.What do you say to me when he's alone?I'm a little interested. "

"Oh, I'm a little interested, too."

The old man drinks alcohol.

The nostalgic fire burned up slightly.Once upon a time, when I was an adventurer, the fire came back.

Tomorrow morning, we'll dive into the dungeon.
