Isekai Nonbiri Nouka
Footsteps of bandits
Unpalatable.
Bad, bad, bad, bad.
How did this happen.
My name is Astra.
I am a little famous bandit leader.
I honestly say.
I am threatened now.
From an unknown partner.
The partner told me why.
It's my subordinate's mismanagement.
He seems to have stolen a certain adventurer.
That's a common story.
Then tell my subordinate, not me.
What do you want me to do?
How do you manage your subordinates?
If we do it our way, we'll drive that subordinate out of the way ...
I hope it isn't ...
know.
Subordinates ... I'm annoyed with subordinates, so let's call them Manuke.
Manuke apparently sold what he had stolen from adventurers to a merchant.
It's a simple story to pay for it, but what the unidentified partner wants is a stolen one.
Cumbersome.
In addition, the merchant who has sold it has begun to move, saying he will participate in an auction in a certain city.
An unidentified opponent tells us to pursue the merchant and collect the stolen items.
It is difficult, but I have to do it.
If you don't do that, you'll just be dead.
I know the other person's ability so badly.
Anyway, more than a hundred my subordinates have been wiped out.
However, if you want to retrieve the stolen items, think a little more.
Perhaps someone who is not thinking about anything?
It's dangerous.
Let's do our best
What a merchant is.
I'll do something.
Well ...
Only thirty people can move besides me.
I left for half of the treatment for my immovable subordinates and I began to take action.
The target merchant is heading to the place where the auction is held, but doing business on the way, so the route can not be predicted.
Since the number of people has decreased, it is impossible to depend on randomness.
But we know where the auction will take place.
Proactive is possible.
Just far away.
Travel expenses are not stupid.
If you run out of money, you just work as a bandit, as usual, but you don't want to do it as much as you're out of turf.
If you do poorly, you will send the bandit to the enemy.
If that happens, you can't sleep.
It is troubled.
So we cut down on the money, sometimes responding to temporary employment, and headed to the place where the auction was held.
It was a long journey of two months.
When we arrived in the city, weird a bit of tears in a strange sense of accomplishment.
But our goal is not to get to the place where the auction will be held, but to get the goods from the merchant who is coming.
First, negotiations.
If that doesn't work, unfortunately they will be stolen.
On a large scale, it would offend the bandits here, but only steal from the merchants living in our territory.
You will be tolerated.
Anyway, we wait for the merchant to arrive.
......
The auction is more than a month away.
We decided to find a day job to make a living.
When he previewed the auction site, thought of the stealing method, and became friends with his day laborer, he got used to eating in the city.
Shock news has jumped in.
The auction is to be held in another city.
All the preparations so far have been wasted, and the area in front of me has gone completely dark.
If you're a thief, it's common for goals to behave in unexpected ways.
If you do not panic and do so calmly, you will be able to manage it.
So far, it worked.
......
Gotachi: If you ask a detailed story, the new auction site.
It's a day away from the town of Shashart.
I've been close to doing day labor.
Should be fine.
However, the auction schedule has also changed.
Held one week later.
no time.
No, if you move right now, you can't.
I thought I was ahead of the auction and booked a day job.
Promises are important, even if they are bandits.
......
I honestly say.
I can't move because I have no money.
Damn, Marula's rice shouldn't be too delicious!
Subordinates, stop eating!
I will save the transfer funds!
Food?
......
"Marula" is because today is the last day!
On the day of the auction, we managed to arrive at Gomachi.
Judgment to enter town unexpectedly is severe.
Hidden weapons and dark instruments are taken away, while the weapons of their own are overlooked.
What is going on?
Well, it doesn't matter if you don't need any hidden weapons or darkware this time.
Rather, the auction site is…
I understood at a glance.
Thank you.
But keep it close.
First, information collection.
Ramen street?
......
Well, food is important.
I was surprised to find a noble lady sitting next to me, but I concentrated on my meal.
It is a dish to eat with chopsticks.
We have no chance in training with Marulla.
Over there, there are some dishes that use chopsticks other than curry that you eat with a spoon.
Teach them how to use chopsticks to the aristocratic young women at the seat next to them. You can eat them on a fork without overdoing them.
I enjoyed ramen.
delicious.
I don't think it was because of the time spent eating, but it was a bit annoying.
Successful contact with the desired merchant.
The collection of the desired product was quite negotiable in negotiations, but ...
Apparently, the merchant has put up the desired item at the auction and is no longer at hand.
What a bummer.
If you don't get a price at the auction, you will return, but if it gets into another rich hand, it will be impossible to recover at worst.
it's no use.
I threatened the merchants and instructed them to bid and buy them back if they were likely to win.
The merchant knew me, so he nodded.
This is a relief.
It was useless.
It is said that the financially wealthy opponent bid and did not win.
I think it would be better to raise the price as much as you can collect it yourself, but it is not so easy.
If you allow sellers to bid and collect your own, you can lift the value of your listing.
So basically you are not allowed to bid on your own listings.
But there is a loophole.
It is good if it is not the seller himself.
So the merchant gave the money to a merchant he knew and asked for a successful bid.
Naturally, an acquaintance's merchant will only bid for the money passed.
If you forcibly make a bid and later you can't pay, the winning merchant will lose credit.
The merchant tried to hand over the extra money, but settled in time.
Hmm.
it's no use.
I wanted to avoid it, but it is a last resort.
Those guarding the auction are on the lookout for the venue.
We will form when we leave the venue.
Attack at once, steal and escape.
I wanted to eat ramen again ... but I can't help it.
I can't turn that unidentified opponent into the enemy.
I will do my best.
Well, a merchant.
What was the winning bidder?
Tell me the characteristics of clothes.
I don't even know the name.
A group of girls on their shoulders?
Do you keep it on all the time?
All the while on the move?
I'm a good parent and child.
Well, good.
Be careful not to kill as much as possible.
Forgive me for injuries.
......
After a short wait, a group came with a man carrying a girl on her shoulder.
Although there are many people, about half are women.
I can go.
I send a signal that my subordinates are OK.
Alright, let's go!
I came out before.
And we were attacked by the residents.
......
e?
why?
We have been caught.
