My First Trip was to Another World

A few days have passed since I returned from the city of Milgia at the end of the century.Although my stay was only for a day, I was able to enjoy the darkness of Milgia enough.It was pretty fun, but I don't think I want to live.

The Nympaea collected near the city was no problem to use.It took time to finish processing, but it seemed satisfactory in terms of quality and quantity.Therefore, it seems that it will be collected on a regular basis.

As usual, I relaxed in Elminsule and suddenly the transcriber trembled.Probably a call from the king.Remove the transcriber and check what is written.

"Things are getting healthier and healthier now and then."

Ah, you can fly this.It's just a greeting. This place is so long.Read it all at once until you stretch it.

I'm ready to pay my reward. Climb the castle immediately.

Well, that's a reward for arresting a bandit.As far as I'm concerned, I thought it would be okay to leave it alone.Well, if you're going to pay, why don't you go get it?

"I'm going to the castle."

"Yes, welcome."

Luna answers when I speak softly.I grabbed my magic bag and moved into the usual room of the royal castle dressed up.

The king sat down with his arms in awe. In the meantime, speak up.

"Hello."

"Well, good to see you. Well, sit down."

The king answered in a familiar manner and urged me to sit on the sofa.There is a stack of gold coins in front of the table.

What's the reward this time?

That's right. I have 2,000 gold coins here. "

"Hmm? Aren't there many?"

The total amount of rewards I would receive this time would have been 1,700.I don't have a good feeling that the stingy king will increase the price on his own...

"Hmm. Actually, I have a top-secret request, but I need you to take it."

Here we go. In exchange.It's a little hard to say no when you show me the money before you listen to me. He's a coward.

"Just ask. What?"

"I'm looking for someone. A whole family of important people are missing from the banditry the other day."

This is about the bandits who were hunted before.The nobility was deeply involved, so it became quite important.But the principally nobleman should have already been arrested.

"What, you got away?"

"... I realized later that there was a nobleman who was holding his hand behind my back.By the time I realized it, the Mansion was already barren. "

The king says so with difficulty.

Apparently the nobles I caught weren't the real masters.Looks like there was a drama somewhere I didn't know.Besides, it's a bad-end that got away.You're asking me to wipe that ass.

Slightly troublesome case, but confidential.The searching theory, Mankai Tactics, cannot be used.It's pretty hard, isn't it?

"Do you know where he ran away?"

"I know I left the country. It's probably Milgia."

Do you know that much?Then I know where the guy who escaped from Alencia is going.It's the city I went to the other day. It's easy to hide somewhere in that territory, even if it's not that city.If we search that territory, we may be able to spot it soon.

But only the ones I know can be found.There are no photos in this country, so I have no way of knowing my face.

"I can take care of it, but I can't find someone who doesn't know."

"Hmm. I have a portrait of him."

And the king said so, and sent his sight to the frame that was set against the wall.

There was a picture of a dandy old man about fifty years old.Wrapped around long blonde hair with a sluggish look.It has an atmosphere like a popular veteran actor.Honestly, I think it looks pretty prominent. This looks easy.

"I see. You should look for this face."

"No... my face is about five times fatter and my jaw is swollen.And my nose is lower and tighter. "

Someone else!

There's almost no good-looking element left from the dusty old man.Looking for a tired Debzizzi...The difficulty rose exponentially.

"A portrait of a nobleman is like that.And beware, your head is bald. "

The last good-looking element fell off with my hair.It's completely different.... Is this portrait really helpful?

"I don't think I can find it at all."

"The pomegranate next to the nose is real. Identify it there."

That's impossible... Someone you don't know at all helps with portraits of others and only one correct tip.It's impossible to find people with this much information.

"If you look for a fat dude with a hokuro, you'll find him all over the place."

"Long bristles grow from that pomegranate.He took care of the hair by calling it treasure hair.Is that how you can tell? "

There should have been a culture of treasure hair in Japan, but I feel something different...That's fine, but I still think it's hard.When you see an old man with a hokuro, you call him from one end? It's very difficult.

"Is there anything else you can tell me?Like favorites and hobbies. "

"Hmm... I remember I liked strange creatures and I liked money anyway.I think I would have eaten anything if it was expensive. "

We found elements that could be narrowed down a little.If you look for something like "a luxury kiosk that smells like money," and stick around, you might be able to run into it if you're lucky.

"It's not enough, but it might work out.I'll give it a try. "

"Hmm, I'll leave it to you. We don't have a deadline, so it'll take some time."

I wonder if the story has come to an end.The gold coin in front of me seems fine.I grabbed the loaded gold coins.At that time, I felt uncomfortable with the right hand holding the gold coin.

What?

"This time I have prepared a Milgian gold coin.Wouldn't it be more convenient to go to Milgia? "

Why are we preparing to accept a request...?

"What were you going to do if I said no?"

"It's a surplus of gold in Japan.I couldn't cast it on my own, I couldn't increase the volume of transactions, it was difficult. "

Milgian coins are about 20% less valuable when used in Alencia.The opposite is true. Is it an inter-state arrangement that cannot be crushed?Mirzia and Alencia may not even be close enough to make these arrangements.

I don't know what the spark of war is, so I guess I have to be careful.

I feel like I've been put on this king's scheme again.With the original surplus of gold coins, the domestic value is reduced by 20%.It is in the form of a push on defective stock.My refusal will hardly hurt the king's nose.

Well, if you're going to do business with a Milgian merchant, I'd rather be thankful.I didn't lose either.It feels bad to be put on a trick, but it's not bad to say it's a profit or loss.But when this happens, it changes the story.

"By the way, what's the reward? That's not all, is it?"

Perform additional negotiations while serving gold coins.This reward is too cheap in terms of the value of this coin.If you convert it to Alencia's gold coins, it's only worth about 100 pieces.

"We have 200 gold coins planned for the success reward."

"Very well, and put the necessary expenses in the advance."

Compensation and expense are separate.The city is expensive anyway, so I would like to get a little extra.

"Do something with the money. I'll pay you when I find you."

The king shook his head with a difficult face.They're going to pay up on top of the success reward.I appreciate that, but if we don't find it, we'll lose a lot.

"Isn't the condition a little too bad? Then at least put about 50 gold coins on the advance."

"No, it's too expensive. I'll give you 20 sheets as a necessary expense, so make it work."

"... I don't like it. It's fine. If you find it, I'll charge you in full."

The King doesn't seem to know the high cost of staying in that city. It's almost gone after a five-day stay, but I think it would be better if he gave it to me.If we save money, we should be able to stay a little longer.

When you run out of money for your stay, ask for another one.If you refuse, I will drop the investigation.

"Alright, I can issue a travel permit for Milgia at any time.When you're ready, show your face to the Adventurer Alliance. "

The king nodded satisfactorily and tried to close the story.I said something that bothered me, so I put a stop to it.

"No, wait, I can't do it under my real name.Forgery or fake names, please. "

I think naming him in a city full of criminals is just suicide.A good duck for a con artist.Besides, I once worked under a pseudonym.I also met the fraudster at that time.If you know your real name, you can only see a troublesome future.

"Mm... forgery is not something you ask the country to do"

What? Omari's old man was happy to fake it.

"I don't need it if it's not a pseudonym.I'll handle it myself. "

"... let's say I didn't ask.We are not involved in this matter. "

The king turned away with his convulsing face and murmured.Apparently, forgery of travel permits is pretty bad for this country.I wonder if it's too scary for Milgia.No, I just want to avoid a war.

Not now, but a little while ago, Milgia was ready for war.Even a small seed fire seemed to be in a state of war.

I don't think Alencia is going to lose to Milgia, but the war is going to cost us a lot, whether we win or lose.I suppose this king thinks it's a loss to do.Isn't it impossible for the King to be careful?

Copy that. I'll forge it myself. I'll find it myself.

We won't be able to use the same method as last time, but there are still other plans.Hopefully, you'll get a permanent ID.

"Hmm. Kor and his crew have not traveled to Milgia.That's what I'm going to do.Check it out. "

Hmm? Your ass is okay...I don't really understand the criteria.

I can deceive you domestically, but I wonder if you can't deceive me if Milgia is involved.It must be a lot of trouble because the countries are not friends with each other.

"Well, when you're ready, I'll come by myself. Don't expect it."

Um, I'll leave it to you. I'm looking forward to it.

It doesn't make sense! I was hoping for something.It's a tough fucking request.

Regarding the target, I received a piece of paper from the King summarizing his easy profile and left the castle behind.I didn't expect you to come back to milgia so soon.

Returning to Elminsul, he reported the king's request to everyone.

"So, Irvin. Please continue to guide me."

"What!?"

When Irving answered in a hurry, Luna continued.

"We're here to help, too."

"I appreciate that, but it's a very insecure and expensive city anyway.I don't want people to know their faces, and it's simply a waste of money. "

Me and Irvin can't help but know Luna's faces because they're already cracked.I want to avoid the risk of being tied to my real name because it's working under a pseudonym.

And the King paid only 20 gold coins for his activities.It's too much money in a normal city, but not in that city.Because it costs a rude stay, increasing the number of people will reduce the number of days you can work for.

"I see.... Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help."

"Hmm? So, instead of me, I'm going to Milgia...."

"No! Irvin is forced to join.You might need the power of the Omari family. "

Irving's father is a noble man of considerable reputation.I can ask for help when I have a problem that I can't help myself.It means insurance to take Irvin.

"But you're in Avalka territory again...?"

Irvin says worried.The Avarka realm is the official name of the realm.The city of bribery and crime, Avalka territory.What a disease-like echo.

"Any other idea where criminals from abroad might be hiding?"

"No, but...."

"Then it's settled."

I'll take Irving, who doesn't like it, to the city again.I don't need to collect it this time, so I think I can do it slower than last time.But I don't want to stay in the city...

All right, give up staying in the city and enjoy camping in the wilderness.Once that is decided, we will begin preparations.It was a troublesome request, but it looks like it would be fun.
