048. Travel Preparation 4

After breakfast, Serena and Sharon went out immediately.

Planned to walk to an open place where the drone could take off and land. Enter the Alois kingdom where there is an escape pod where Sharon descends on a drone. Unload the goods from the escape pod and load them into the drone.

The same goes for the escape pod used by Serena.

He told me that he brought my private clothes, so I asked her to bring some clothes and underwear that could be worn on this star.

After breakfast, Clelia and Elna deliver magical tools. I borrowed the inn's trolley at Bath and loaded the magical equipment, and headed to Tarsu's shop.

Jonas was waiting at the store as he had announced his schedule. I immediately started inspection work. Attach magic stones one by one and check the operation.

"Everything is fine. This wooden box is also well made. It seems that we can sell it as it is. Then this will be the price."

That's why I was given a sachet containing 60 gold coins. I also counted here.

"Thank you very much. I'm leaving tomorrow. Sorry to trouble you, but can you prepare to leave tomorrow morning?"

"Okay, will you come to this store tomorrow morning? I'll have it ready by then. If possible, my husband would like to say hello before leaving ..."

"Oh, of course. I was going to come back later."

"Thank you very much. Let's go to the mansion?"

"Oh, actually the rears say they want to see horses, are they here?"

"Yes, I'm in the backyard stable. Here it is."

When Jonas guided me to the stables, she pulled out the horse from the stables.

"This is a pretty horse! It's a young horse, and it could be used as a warhorse. It's a horse that can't be used in a carriage."

Jonas seems happy to be praised by her professional knight, Erna.

"What is the horse's name?" Said Clelia.

"This tea is tars. This black is Syrah."

"It's a good name.

Does Clelia like horses? I try to stroke a surprised surprise. All right. Both seem to be very friendly.

For a long time, the Clelia seemed satisfied after stroking the horse. I went to Tarus's residence with Jonas. As soon as he was passed through the business meeting room of the mansion, Mr. Tarus came.

"Thank you for coming bother, Alan-san. Thank you for the recipe yesterday. I was able to make it with an easy-to-understand recipe even for my chef."

"No, no, it's a small thank you for everything."

"I'm the one who took care of me, but I'll be lonely when Alan and others are gone."

"I'll write a letter when you're there and calm down.

"Okay, let's do that. I'm sorry I couldn't do it, but I could say that Claria-sama would buy Starvek information."

"No, it's inevitable because there is a distance between neighboring countries," Clelia said.

"It's not information, but I've learned a little. Let Jonas explain."

"First, the Kingdom of Alois changed the tax rate on farmers throughout the Kingdom.

In the Kingdom of Starväck, the tax rate was 50%, compared to 70% in Alois. The head tax is also increased at the same rate.

In addition, the tax rates imposed by the state on nobles seem to be different for southern and noble nobles, and northern nobles are likely to have severe taxes. ''

"How much is it?"

"Unfortunately, the exact figures have not yet been determined. However, in response, some Northern aristocrats have begun to introduce a separate tax system as a special tax. Therefore, dissatisfaction with the lords and the nation is gradually increasing among the people. "

"Is that so…"

Clelia looks down and looks apologetic. Celia didn't do anything else.

"Thanks Mr. Tarus, thank you for your valuable information.

"That's terrible! Clelia, I can't call this information at this level. We will continue to collect information."

After that, he talked about future plans and cooking, and left Tarus's residence. Clelia and Erna are a bit darker in the earlier story.

"I'm going to go to the magic guild next time. Leah and Elna can go back to the inn."

"I don't think so.

He went with him to the magic guild, and greeted him with the chief of the branch.

"Hello, branch president. Tomorrow, it became indebted to now be starting. Now."

"Oh, yeah. I'm really sorry. You're a magician better than an adventurer ... but it can't be helped. Yes! That sells! It was just a blind spot. I wonder why I couldn't think of it until now. "

After a brief discussion with the branch chief, I was rude. Lily looks lonely too. After all, no one other than the chief of the branch and Lily was ever seen at this branch.

"The rest is about the adventurer's guild, Amy. Surely it would have been a rule you had to contact when changing bases."

Probably because it is troubled with a nomination request if the location is unknown. And if you cancel the Wyvern's request you had previously made, you should get back 100,000 Guineas.

He went to the adventurer's guild and told Amy that he was leaving the city.

"Yes, I'm sorry. The Shining Stars were all very talented, so I thought I'd be able to accept a request from now on ... I understand, I'll update the information."

"And please withdraw the Wyvern's previous request for a gemstone."

"Oh, I understand ..... then this is the 100,000 Guinea we received as a deposit."

"Sure. By the way, can you find out about the types of demons in the guild?"

"Oh, those materials are in the archives. And there are these books, but they are very expensive."

Then I took out a thick book from the shelf.

"Can you see me?"

"It's good, but please handle it with care. If you treat it poorly, you will buy it."

When I carefully opened the book I gave, it looked like a picture book of a demon. It is written with a carefully written illustration of a demon, such as the habitat of the demon, the simple habits and weaknesses, the threat rank of the demon, the description of the parts that are evidence of subjugation, the parts that can be sold The description and even the reference price were written. The date and time of the reference price was ten years ago, but will be literally helpful.

"This is good! How much does this book cost?"

"How! It's 50,000 Guineas! As far as I know, it has never been sold in this branch."

Certainly high! The same amount as the carriage. However, they all seem to be hand-written, and creating a single book would require a lot of man-hours, so it seems reasonable to consider the information fees provided.

"What do you think?"

"I definitely want this. Should I buy it if I can afford it?"

"I think I'm good too"

100,000 Guineas are back, and you can learn new characters. This will buy.

"I'll take it"

He offered five gold coins while saying so.

"Eh !? Sure. Thank you for purchasing."

At first I looked into the archives, but it was just a room where I just broke the book I bought and put it on the wall one page at a time. It is no longer accessible as if viewed from a distance.

Oops, I have to say hello to Zarku, an armorer, and Joe, an armorer. When I went to each store and told me that I was leaving the city, I was sorry but gave me service on how to care for my armor and sword, as well as tools.

We decided to have lunch at a restaurant serving stew-like dishes that we had eaten before. After all it is good taste.

"I got a good book. I can start an adventurer now."

"I'm saved because I only knew the demon in Starweg."

"I have to study from today so that any monsters will appear."

Clelia looking into a book while eating. Don't pollute it because it was expensive. After lunch, we buy food. Go to the market and buy foods that are likely to last. For the time being, I secured bacon, cheese and butter.

"What else do you need?"

"It's usually dried meat, baked bread, and dried beans," said Elna.

"I see. So what should I buy when I can't hunt anything?"

Speaking of which, I didn't look at the destination or the journey.

(Iris, show me the recommended trip to the destination)

[How about like this? ]

The appointment is displayed in the virtual window.

First, it seems that Ganz is the fortified city, the city closest to the destination, the Great Demon Tree Sea. It's a total of 14 days. A simple map was also displayed, showing places suitable for camping and villages that could be stayed.

Hmmm, ten days will be enough. Flour and rice are already purchased at Tarus's shop.

"I've found that it takes about 14 days by chariot to go to the destination fortified city, Gantz. There's rice and maybe 10 days worth buying."

"It's a party leader to know that we've already checked that out!"

"Well, is that right?"

I just looked up, but there's no difference in having looked up in advance.

When I bought dried meat, baked bread, beans, and vegetables that seemed to last a long time, I decided to return to the inn because it was a good baggage. If you have forgotten something to buy, go out and buy again.

When I arrived at the inn and dropped my luggage in the room, I was tired, so I decided to have tea in the dining room.

"Well, have you forgotten what you bought?"

"I don't think there are enough supplies for a 14-day trip."

Elna is very reliable as a common sense person from this star. Clelia, on the other hand, is crazy about the book she just bought. After a chat with Erna, the door of the inn was opened, and Serena and Sharon, literally holding several bags all over, returned.

"I'm back now," said Serena.

Both of them were in a state of being exhausted and seemingly exhausted. Perhaps he brought as many supplies as he could in the escape pod.

"Why, if you contact me, I'll pick you up."

I wonder if that's the case ... In a hurry, I brought two bags. For now, carry your luggage to your room.

"Selina, what's this baggage?"

"I've picked up the luggage I had left for people."

Everyone handed them to Serena's room.

Communication from Sharon.

(I just picked up the luggage that seemed to be useful.

(Hmm? What kind of thing?)

(For example, spare electromagnetic blade knives, clothes, underwear, etc.)

Yeah, I knew what I wanted to say.

(No problem. Please give it by all means)

At first glance, they opened a bag made of imperial synthetic fiber and began to spread their luggage on the bed.

"I wanted to give this to two people and brought it."

While saying that, Sharon offered them an electromagnetic blade knife in a sheath.

"This is the same as Alan's knife !?"

"Oh, yeah. Most things are swords that cut spells, so be careful with iron as anything can be cut."

"Is this a magic tool? But ... it doesn't have any magic stones ... No way! Artifacts?"

It is an energy-saving design that operates only when something touches the blade.

"It's not such a fine thing, but to maintain sharpness, you need to occasionally expose the blade to sunlight."

"Sure ... it's an artifact ...", said Elna.

"Thank you! Sharon, Serena. Can I try it?"

"of course!"

Clelia took out the copper coin and approached her with a terrible knife ... She cut the copper coin without any resistance. Well, it's natural.

"Awesome!"

"Clelia! Let me do it!"

When you receive a knife and a piece of copper from Celia, cut it in the same way.

"Amazing ... Not a magic sword. Artifacts too. Clelia-sama, can you accept this?"

"I'm good. We're a party companion. Improving your companion equipment can help everyone's safety."

"I see, this will protect everyone. Thanks, Sharon and Serena."

"This is Alan's clothes."

While saying so, a large bag was handed over from Serena. When I opened and looked inside, there were spare military uniforms and formal clothes, my plainclothes and underwear that seemed somewhat nostalgic. He seems to have chosen something sober. Check it out later in your room.

"Don't help this. Thank you, Serena."

"And I brought this one, I think Alan would like it ..." Sharon said.

"Which one ... is this? Fishing equipment!"

In the bag, there are three fishing rods stored as short as about 30 cm, which can be equipped with a device for winding fishing line called reel, the length of the rod is about 2 to 5 meters It is elastic up to. It can be used as a bait fishing pole without a reel.

In the bag, in addition to three reels, there is a pseudo bait called a lure, two tool boxes filled with insect-shaped flies and stuffing, and in addition, fishing line, hooks, etc. There was also a tool box with tools. It is not a tool used by amateurs at all. Of course, it's not my personal property.

(What happened? Sharon)

(The crew's living quarters were almost safe, so I asked Ellis to pick up something that could be useful.)

I see, crew personal belongings. Some people come up with the hobby of fishing and come to mind. Thank you for using.

I've done fishing when I was on my home planet, but I'm almost an amateur. Let's do it while telling Eris. But this got a good one. There was no decent means to catch fish, so it would be very helpful.

"Thank you, Sharon. This looks useful."

"Alan, what is it?" Clelia said.

"It's a fishing tool."

"Fishing?"

"A tool for catching fish."

Clelia and Elna don't seem to know fishing. Well, if you were a princess or a noble lady, wouldn't it be obvious if you didn't know?

"If there is a suitable river, let's fish next time."

"And this is an energy pack for rifles and lasers."

"Oh, I understand. Let's keep it."

Certainly, he said that he had brought twenty-five pieces each, so for two people fifty pieces. That's enough.

Serena and Sharon have begun to remove women's clothing from their bags. I'd better take my seat off.

"I'll leave my luggage in my room."

""understood""

While checking my fishing gear in my room, occasional cheers are heard from the rooms of Serena and Sharon next to me. It ’s best that everyone gets along.

When knocked and answered, it was Bath.

"Alan, can I have dinner a bit late today?"

"Oh, no problem. Are you busy? What can I do to help?"

"No, I'd like to have the customers eat the meals as soon as possible, and hope to have a banquet with you if you can."

"Oh! Okay, that's it! Then I'll help the kitchen."

"Oh, I thought I'd say that, Alain"

He told everyone that dinner was late and that he was in the kitchen, and began to help with dinner and banquets in the kitchen.

Bath is mainly preparing for the inn supper, and I am preparing mainly for the banquet.

It seems that guests have been told that the time of their last order is earlier today, and many customers eat earlier. The guest's meal was over much sooner than usual. Of course, banquet dishes were completed accordingly.

I went to the room to gather everyone and the banquet members came together. We're eight, Bath, wife, and Sara-chan.

Everyone looks at the banquet and cheers. When everyone gets their favorite drink, the banquet starts. Bath rises with ale in hand.

"Alan, thanks to you, the cuisine at this inn has changed dramatically.

It is thanks to you that this inn is thriving now. I really appreciate it.

You and your friends always stay at this hotel for free. Welcome!

I feel lonely to be away, but I can not stop because I understand my feelings as an adventurer.

Let's make a toast in hope of the growing prosperity of this inn, your party, and the success of the Shining Star! "

"""cheers!!"""

"It's just delicious food!" Sharon said.

Today's banquets include fried chicken, fried potatoes, fried shrimp, fileo fish, yakitori with salt and sauce, boiled big boa, potato salad, radish salad, various vegetable bacon rolls, and tomato and cheese caprese.

It felt uncoordinated, but it looked like this when I matched it with the ingredients in the store. That's enough to make a large number of berths, so this number is too large to eat.

"Everything looks really good!" Said Sara.

Everyone happily eats food. It was worth working hard.

"Hey, Alan. This dish is a great dish."

"Oh, it's delicious, because I spent the most time."

Kakuni has become simmering thanks to its long boiling.

"Well, this dish ...

"I know, I have a recipe ready before departure."

"It's really Alan! Well, today I'm in a good condition, let's drink!"

Two hours after the banquet started, everyone was already quite drunk. The banquet should be closed once here.

When I went to the kitchen and took out the steamed pudding from the refrigerated magician for the number of people, she behaved to everyone.

"Wow! Is this sweet?" Said Sara.

"Oh, it's pudding!

"Yes, I'm honored to be honored by the princess."

"Um, I don't suffer. Delicious! I order Alan to make it every day!"

"I refuse!"

"Already! Lear, you're drinking too much!"

"Waha! When you drink it, you're pretty sick.

"... Yes. I'm overdrinking. Should I tighten once here. Will Bath still drink?"

"Oh, it's been a long time since a banquet has happened.

"We drunk too much. We're sleepy and we're back in the room," said Sharon.

Everyone went back to the room with Clelia, who was still drinking.

My wife and Sarah who did not drink much left the knobs and cleaned up, so Bath and I started drinking again.

Inevitably the story of cooking, I have eaten exquisite dishes, golden turtle eggs on the home planet Lancel, dancing creatures like octopus like Tallette, super high-quality matsuzaka steak, sashimi, sea urchin, salmon roe, and He talked about how to make sushi and the effect.

Occasionally, Bath was aroused and impressed, but listened intently.

"Oh, the world is wide, Alain. There is no way that there are such ingredients, how to eat, and dishes ..."

"Oh, the world is really big, maybe much more than Bath thinks."

Oops, I told you something extra. I seem to be drunk too.

By the time the date changed, they both fell asleep and the banquet opened.
