Isekai Cheat Magician

I have a cold wind that stings my skin.

Since it is in the carriage, it does not hit the wind directly, but all four of them wear cold clothes securely.

However, the outfits of the women in the carriage are sweeter than those of ordinary merchants and adventurers visiting the land, one or two steps being cold-proof. That's because Taiichi is helping Silfi to keep the air out of the carriage. The lack of outside wind and the fact that the heat generated in the carriage did not escape outside ensured a comfortable space to travel in this cold zone.

Something like a bond is stretched out, would it be quick to talk about it?

The cold grew harsher as we entered the Sikatris Empire and headed north toward the capital.

The empire was pretty warm in the winter. South in the middle of the winter season, it escaped the harshest weather in an easy place to spend.

It was a few months until I left Ellistein and returned from the Empire. Upon returning home, the Ellistein Magic Kingdom was much less cold.

However, the Sikatris Empire is a northern country. And because the land is also a highland, or extreme cold in a good proportion of almost everything on the national soil. Plus heavy snow zones. Relatively loose is until the altitude gradually rises somewhat northwards from the border with the Gargen Empire.

The cold was not yet soothing, average as the winter of the Sikatris Empire, but very severe cold persisted for non-human beings in this country.

The snowfall peak is now past, but it's not without it.

The snow so far has also decreased a lot, but the plains are still bright white. The streets are easier to navigate by people, but the ground is invisible. Instead, there are more travellers and carriages going down the plains than trampled and slippery streets.

The fathers, too, traveled on the plains, not the streets.

It should be noted that Clos walking outside were only proceeding in a definite foothold if they were not comfortable with the cold at all. Exactly A-rank demons, far tougher than humans.

On the other hand, Taiichi, who is your master, deserves to go on this extremely cold land, completely defensive. Most importantly, with Sylphi's help, the cold itself has eased considerably.

"Stop."

Often lined up at the main entrance of Playnaris, the capital of the Sikatris Empire. A gatekeeper with a long-footed cane blocked the carriage that proceeded because the order had come.

white race. Of course, to him, that characteristic appeared.

A white race is a human being mutated by a strong magic that is rooted in the earth. Has white hair on white skin, although not albino. It is also not as good as an elf, but it has a reputation for having more aesthetic shapes than human beings. It is a race that is good at witchcraft, either because of the influence it has been exposed to strong magic. Physical abilities, on the other hand, are inferior to those of humans, and also inferior to humans in toughness. Beautiful, impossible. It is the white race that such words come firmly.

The weapon he holds, which is the gatekeeper, is a cane, probably also because of its racial characteristics. Though he has a sword on his hips and is also a samurai, it is only magic that dominates him. Its racial characteristics also came from the gatekeeper's equipment.

Though he seemed slightly surprised that there was one horse hitting a carriage of considerable size, his consciousness soon turned to his lord, Taiichi.

Taiichi nods at that gaze and instantly gives him the Adventurer card.

The gatekeeper who received the card moved his eyebrows gently when he saw the contents.

"Well...... you're young but brilliant. Purpose?"

Rank B, which can be considered sufficient as a self-evident element.

If so. The gatekeepers ask questions just in case. It's an office job, but it's important to build a building. Confirmed, the fact is.

"Hey, do me a favor. I'm here to work."

To Taiji's words, the gatekeeper nodded.

What else? It was the answer he had imagined. Most of the reason why adventurers cross the country is for work. Whether that is temporary or a long-term change of base of activity, it should be welcomed as a country. Because good adventurers struggle to secure every country. Though.

"Now this country has been laid with strict precautions. Visitors from other countries are not refused but are not recommended. The whole city isn't safe, either. Do you mind?

Strict caution. On top of that, it's not safe.

Tai Chi knows that no city is absolutely safe.

A state of emergency would mean war or an equivalent crisis.

but that's what I knew.

That there is danger.

The gatekeeper moves his gaze from Taiichi to the carrier behind him.

"What about the carrier?

"My people are on board."

"Right. Okay, let me check it out."

"Oh, please"

Of course, I won't forget to inspect the carrier. Very few b-rank adventurers deceive as examples, but this is also necessary for the same reasons ahead.

"Go ahead."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Rin, who opened the curtain before the gatekeeper turning behind the carriage, handed the three guild cards to the gatekeeper while making sure he could see inside.

"Huh... you guys too... Huh!

Rin, look at Mullah's guild card. It was also during the bundle that I looked out for the two of them crowning the B-rank, not commensurate with their youthful appearance.

I was greatly surprised by Remia's guild card.

What was inscribed there was a letter indicating that as an adventurer it was the highest A-rank.

Seeing letters rarely seen, the gatekeeper solidifies momentarily.

"Can I come through?

To the voice called by his beauty, the gatekeeper responded haphazardly with salute.

To the prestigious attitude of Lemia, so much so that it was an accidental tribute.

"Oh. That helps."

Taiichi, who was watching the exchange between Lemia and the gatekeeper, whips him after permission is granted and makes him walk cro.

There is no need to whip or anything like that, and in some cases it is somewhat eye to eye, but you can also communicate, but where there are eyes, it makes sense that they are normal. Because I have an obsidian horse, etc., and I shouldn't expose it.

"... right. Tych, pull over."

"Hmm? Okay."

Walk out a little.

That's what Remia told me, and Taiichi pulled over as he pulled the carriage over to the end of the road.

Confirming that he had stopped, Remia jumped lightly off the carriage and walked towards the gatekeeper.

I had some interaction with the soldier doing the outpost there and she came back to the carriage.

The sentry was slightly red in the face whether he was hit by Remia's beauty, but it would be for him to decide not to see it.

"Tych. I'll show you the way, let's get this place straight first"

"? Ooh."

Proceed with the carriage as Remia told you.

When I get instructed to park the carriage again, it's in front of a big building.

"Commercial guild?

The sign reads as such.

First he secured the sleeping floor in the inn, then went to the Adventurer Guild to update the place of activity, thought Taiichi, looking up at the building and twisting his neck.

"Uhm. Follow me because it's good"

Parking the carriage in the prescribed place and depositing the cro, Remea does not hesitate to enter the commercial guild.

Taiichi, Rin and Mura followed behind him, unable to read the master's intentions.

The space leading from the entrance to the commercial guild was like a lobby. For Taiichi and Rin, it was meant to be somewhat reminiscent of a former Japanese bank.

Of course, it's a lot different because it's not anywhere.

Remia walks over with all the available counters. The receptionist, a responder, welcomed Remia with a clean sales smile.

"Welcome. What can I do for you today?

"Mm-hmm. I'd like to take care of a house with garden for a short or medium stay"

Briefly, that's what Remia told him.

The receptionist nods.

"You're renting, aren't you?

"Uhm."

"Would you like to decide from your budget? Or are you determined by the terms?

"That's conditional priority. The amount is second."

"Yes, I did. Now, I'd like you to show me your ID."

The guild card Lemia offered as if it were nothing had no further effect than when she was a gatekeeper.

Exactly a receptionist who can relate to different people. I obviously didn't put it on the table, but the consternation came through.

They are guided to private rooms used for business discussions, etc., and often wait.

A receptionist showed up with a middle-aged man.

"Thank you for waiting. We've brought you a real estate resistant merchant."

"My name is Delps. We pride ourselves on being one or another about real estate in this city, so we will work sincerely to meet your wishes."

It has a fairly low back and is not placed underneath.

Definitely because of the A-rank guild card Lemia has.

(If a two-named adventurer turns you that way in A-rank, the image goes down pretty good)

Speaking of extreme stories, even if the merchant's side brought it up somewhat in this business negotiation, it would be enough to gain from looking at the long-term outlook because it would have a better impact on later business.

Lose it and get it, I guess? And Rin thought when he heard Mullah whisper.

Of course, Delps will also benefit while offering the terms that we think we get the most out of being a customer. Bringing it up is a polar theory, only a last resort. It is the merchants who pursue profits, and that is also why they can be said to have credibility. You'll have to wonder what kind of back there is, such as a merchant who doesn't try to make money.

"Right. Now, please..."

Business talks begin between Remia and the merchant Delps.

I was wondering if it would take some time due to a combination of conditions.

As the business conversation sounded if it was struck, it was brought together in a ton of applause by Delps, who did not spare any hand bills.

Playnalis, the capital of the Sikatris Empire, is a city that stretches around a castle that lies on the top of a hill that is soft but huge, facing the sea to the northeast.

horizontal rectangular land, in the form located in the upper right corner thereof.

The castle, where the king sits, is the center, close to the top, roughly to the Eighth Place of Aristocracy. From there to around the seventh place is the advanced civic district inhabited by those who do not hold the title. Senior citizens are predominantly inhabited by advanced adventurers, large merchants with large shops, and those with higher ranks in the military in this playnery. The royal craftsmen are here too.

From the seventh to the fifth, Intermediate Civic District. Intermediate adventurers, mid-sized chambers of commerce, squad captain-level soldiers, and more.

From the fifth to the bottom is the lower civic district. It is inhabited by junior adventurers, foam merchants, and general soldiers. Each is separated by a castle wall, with fairly loose top-to-bottom scrutiny, but rigorous scrutiny to go from bottom to top.

It is subordinate, but this is mainly the section inhabited by the general public. I don't know how to call it, but that doesn't mean there's any particular separation, but a convenience distinction.

The central government means nothing more than convenience, but it is a well-known fact that it is pre-built. Nevertheless, if the intermediate or higher tries to put power on the kasas and widen it because it is lower, it is more than the central government. Once there was no escape, it was a high return but at the same time a high risk.

Although the aristocratic district does not have a large number of people, the parcel itself is widely taken because of the size of each house. Advanced civic streets are the narrowest, but this one is also quite sizeable per house, and doesn't make you feel any obstruction. Intermediate Citizenship is a form in which the size of the Senior Citizenship has been reduced by about two steps each. And the lower civic streets are the largest, most cluttered, and most populous.

The more you go up there, the more taxes you'll get. The amount is determined for each job title, but it is never a cheap amount regardless of which job you are in, and it proves that you are fine to bear it, that is, that you have all the financial resources, which leads to trust.

For those living in senior civic districts and those living in lower civic districts, taxes are the difference between heaven and earth, even in the same occupational category.

Though, the difference in the number of mothers still says something there. Tax revenues from lower civic districts, which are so overwhelmingly numerous that even intermediate, advanced and aristocratic districts cannot be overwhelmed as if they were tautological, were among the largest in the players, and the central government had clearly launched an attitude of publicly declaring that "the people are state assets" to protect them.

The rented house is a single-family house with a garden of ten rooms, facing the main street leading up to the castle and built close to the gateway of the advanced civic district.

The section is an intermediate civic district. Among other things, it was quite a house for rent. The worse, the less uncomfortable it is when it is built in an advanced civic district.

The scale is not above average, but it is well formatted. Some aristocrats say it is not surprising why houses are in intermediate civic districts, even if they are built in advanced civic districts.

In the past, the Count, who came from the Empire for diplomatic talks, liked it and also said he had a strong desire to stay, even if he closed his eyes to the fact that the location was an intermediate civic district. At that time, he had to stay in the senior civic district for security reasons, and the Count sighed with regret.

With the houses that the predecessors of the merchants of the big shops who now live in the advanced civic districts made them build on the architects they were gracious about when they were in the intermediate.

Since I started living in this house, I haven't sold this house off as an edge and rented it out because after so long I moved to an advanced civic district as a result of one big deal after another that I didn't envisage coming in and making rough money. He said he would be in deficit when he weighed his rental income and administrative expenses, but for that merchant, he would not be sold because he was a test taker, Delps said. Among some intermediate city merchants, they are secretly raised as symbols of dreams.

The scale is there but good quality. so the price is high for the breadth.

"Why, this house?

Pay the rent, make sure you have everything you need to stay here, at night.

At the point of being comfortable, Taiichi threw questions at Remia.

It is certainly a good house. I don't want to sleep at home. Sleeping and food expenses are necessary expenses to do a good job. I have no objection there.

But only to a certain extent. The rent on this house is a sum that the proportion there can be called a luxury.

I'm not in trouble for money.

but it didn't have to be that much.

There were a number of cheaper, firmer houses for Delps.

Remia sandwiched it into the book she was reading before closing it.

"Ask me about your journey. I just wanted to point out one thing."

That's what she said, she glanced around the room.

Not gorgeous, rather plain, but good quality that people who see can tell. A conditioner that tries the viewer's aesthetic eye.

Wallpapers aren't cheap either, but they don't even emphasize how expensive they are.

It would also be because the high rent is intended only for those who think it is okay to pay that price, knowing its value.

This good taste is also preferable to Remia.

"What do you want to point out, is?

"Oh."

Rin twisting his neck.

Lemia aligns her gaze with the three of us.

"It's not a big deal, you're right. Wherever possible, stay in a house with a stables."

……

That much said, the three of them were not so dull that they didn't realize it was referring to Cro.

Seeing that reaction, Remia laughs a little satisfied.

"That's right. Your horses are not normal. We need to be considerate."

"Right... even though I hear you say it, it's an obsidian horse... quiet doesn't replace being an A-rank demon"

Mullah squeaks with her hands on her chin.

"There's that, too. You should feed him meat without rubbing it. I guess it doesn't have to be meat because it's omnivorous. But we still need meat for the Obsidian horse to unleash its sloppy potential. That's why these guys are carnivores.

Some inns will understand, but I don't think it's all there. Clo is no less clever than a man, is he? But don't be sweet on that wit, he says. I owe a great deal to that ability. Don't you think we should enjoy some inconvenience and high costs? "

Remia's point about that was harsh.

The inn definitely tends to be more convenient. Many inns sell conveniences that take advantage of their location.

In contrast, it is not uncommon for a renter to be less convenient than an inn. If you stay for some time, for convenience, it is often cheaper than staying in an inn. In many cases, cost and convenience are weighed and cost is valued.

However, if convenience is also valued in rentals, the cost will be high instead of saving money. If it were to be a house with stables, it would rather jump.

The Taiichi have no trouble with gold. Lemia's point was also that.

"I see... if you ask me, you're right. You did a bad thing to Crowe."

"I don't care. Just keep it in your mind. That's all I need."

"Yes, I understand."

I took Remia's point, that's when.

Air trembling roar and shock.

"... eh"

I knew for a reason I came to this country that I would not be calm.

Apparently, this is where it comes from.

"There."

Mullah quickly rushed to the window and raised her voice, Rin pointing out.

Taiichi and Remia, one beat behind them, opened their eyes when they saw the sight.

The city is built on a hill facing the sea. And the rented property is somewhat elevated, so you can also look down at the sea level.

I could also see a giant water column rising from the sea.

There is a fuss outside the house.

I can't help it. It was a slightly different impact.

This is it. What Silfi and Mi were saying. I expected it, but it still hasn't gone out of style.

"Tichi"

What does Remia's call mean? I didn't have to ask anyone. When Taiichi opened the window and went outside, he jumped on the roof.

Explore how it goes first. Can I go nearby? Do we need to stay and protect this place?

Reducing the desire to jump out, Taiichi looks to the sea with enhanced vision.

What seemed like a pitch-black sea was the sight of a dragon with three necks on each other and a long serpent-like dragon clashing with it, hitting each other with magical fluctuations.
