My First Trip was to Another World

It seems that the merchant can buy us dinner today.I appreciate free meals, but I appreciate being able to go to the cafeteria without risk.

I can't trust the stores in this city, so I need someone to introduce me.There seems to be a Bottacli shop everywhere.

"I wonder if it would be nice to have someone I don't know buy it."

Irvin says anxiously.

"No, no, you don't know anybody."

I've just met him, but I think it's okay to say I know him.

"You just met him, right? I think you should be careful."

"I'll just eat the mess.You don't have to say weird things. "

Since we hide our identity, it is awkward to be understood by our real names and affiliations.On the contrary, I think that other things are acceptable.If you're sold a fight, you can retaliate, and if you're serious, you can escape with a diversion.

Besides, that merchant is the most important person to target right now.There is no harm in being close.

Waiting to talk to Irving outside the Chamber of Commerce, the door of the Chamber opened and the merchant just came out.

"Hey, hey, did I keep you waiting?"

"No, no problem."

"Speaking of which, you didn't name it.I'm Donkey. We're meeting at this Monkey Chamber of Commerce. "

No problem! Monkey, not Kong.

"Oh, thank you so much. I'm Leighton.This is my relative Jonathan. Best regards. "

"Wasn't that your brother?"

"No, that's why I keep it."

Looks like Donkey guessed he was our brother because of his age.Irvin and I are not at all alike, so we can't argue that we're brothers.That's what I decided to call a relative.

"Ah! That's right! I'll give you this reward first.It contains 500 gold coins. "

I received a scratchy and heavy drawstring bag from Donkey.That's a bigger reward than I thought...I'll give you half a black fang as a tip.

Finish exchanging rewards and get going.According to Donkey, there are restaurants where meat dishes are delicious.

"Sometimes it's a lot of money to spend in this city, Mr. Rayton."

Down the road, Donkey talked to me.

"Without a proper ID, it's pretty tough.I don't think it's impossible to get my hands dirty on crime. "

"Isn't that right, Mr. Rayton? Everyone with black teeth is pretty tough."

I wonder if Donkey is worried about black teeth...He mistakes us for members of the black fangs.It's only natural that I named it that way at first, but I can't correct that mistake to make you think that this case is due to black teeth.Let's continue talking as part of the Black Fang.

"Well, yeah. I've done a lot of illegal things."

I'm not talking about me, I'm talking about black teeth.As far as I know, fraud and extortion and robbery.I'm probably doing it more broadly.

"I'll help you make a fortune like me."

Donkey is good at it, but he doesn't look like he's making a lot of money...

The office is small enough to be profitable.

"Oh, it's just an office.There's a separate staff locker, and it's quite a big one. "

After saying that, Donkey started boasting about how he was making money.Apparently, making a fortune is not a lie.

Donkey says he's in the business of 'delivering from where there's excess inventory to who needs it'.I wonder if it's like a general trading company in Japan.It's a business I've never heard of in Alencia.

You're doing something unusual.

"Yes, other merchants see it with white eyes. Hahaha"

Donkey laughs.Businesses like Donkey seem to be unusual in Milgia.

"If it's that profitable, we should all imitate it."

It was a simple question. That's the trigger...

"If you can, you can try it.Information lives in this business.If we don't have the information, it's gonna be a big mistake. "

Donkey stops and talks with pride.How good your network is and how wide your network is.I know it's amazing, but it's hard to hear. Intercept the conversation once.

"Wait a minute, why don't you hurry up?"

I'm here to eat a mess, and I don't want to brag.I want to go to the restaurant and the dining room right away.

"Oh, I see. Here it is."

"You've arrived!"

Were you standing in front of the store you were looking for...?I feel like I'm throwing my time away.

Restore your mind and enter the store.

It's a fairly large shop on the main street.The interior is also cleaned there.A somewhat luxurious restaurant that doesn't resemble the atmosphere of this city.

"It's not bad...."

"Isn't that right? This is a luxury shop that has nothing to do with ordinary people."

Donkey laughed and said.I was looking for a restaurant where gastronomers might gather.

Incidentally, there is no such thing as a menu in restaurants around the world.Every day is the chef's whimsical lunch.Because the stock is not stable and cannot be stored in the refrigerator, it is common to make it with something that was purchased that day.

Well, let's sit down.

When I say so, Donkey looks around and proceeds inside the store.

"This way. Actually, there's someone I want to introduce you to."

Donkey walks with a claw, and I go after it.

"Didn't you hear there was someone?"

"Ha ha. I was going to surprise you.I was just talking to someone at the Lords Hall. "

"Seriously, you're working fast!"

Thank you. You've heard some nonsense bragging.I didn't expect the conversation to proceed so soon.

"After that, I happened to see you.When I talked to Rayton, I really wanted to see him. "

"Well, thank you."

Behind Donkey's gaze was a middle-aged man with sharp eyes and a low eyebrow buttocks.

"David, thank you for waiting.He's an adventurer. "

"Nice to meet you, David. I've been expecting you. Please sit down."

David stood up and bowed.The Donkey guy, he was waiting for someone to show off his story...Be careful.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Leighton. This is my relative Jonathan. Thank you very much."

I am also a little concerned about the officials of the lord's residence.If you lose this person's mood, you'll be far away from the target you're so close to.

"It's okay if you don't mind.I'm just a servant. "

It seems that he is like a servant of the lord.Well, the nobles' hips aren't that light.I don't mind, but let's not respect words.

"Roger that. I'll let you do what you always do."

That said, sitting in my seat just brought in the food.David must have asked for it.There is no problem at all because there is no choice in the menu.

Enjoy cooking while having a chat.I wonder what kind of meat it is... close to chicken.The texture is chicken breast meat, and the taste and juiciness is chicken thigh meat.It is slightly watery, but the taste is strong. It's strange meat.

"This is Lizard's meat, isn't it? Pretty good quality."

David explains. Apparently it was carefully processed alligator meat.... ants. Selling them all was a mistake.Let's get about one from now on.

At the end of the meal, David made a strange appearance and shouted.

"Can I talk to you about one thing on my own?"

"What is it all of a sudden? Well, listen...."

When I say so, David laughs and keeps talking.

"Thank you. I served the Count of some country."

"... were you there?"

"Yes, I was chased home the other day for my innocence.The Earls are gone. "

Could he be related to the target?Let's explore a little.

"I've been stuck in my ear before.He stole the royal emblem. "

"I didn't do that!It was royalty! "

We did it, we won! I've never heard of a royal emblem being stolen before.There is no doubt that this is the remnant of the Count of Belfort.

"I'm so sorry... The power of the state is not a bad thing."

I'll get David in tune for now.By the way, I am also a member of the state power. Be careful.

"No, I already gave up on that.But there's only one thing left... "

"Is there anything left to do?"

"As a matter of fact, there's a lot of treasure left all over the country.We need the help of skilled adventurers and merchants to retrieve it. "

Count Belfort was a thief, so it's no wonder he had a lot of stolen goods hidden away.Even the stolen goods I collected before, if they were bad, they would have been hidden.

"Thank you for securing and transporting that treasure."

"No, we'll get the people to do that.I give you the most important information, so it's hard to pick. "

I see. The transportation of expensive treasures is not a matter of asking a first-time human being.Not to mention the city of criminals.Extremely likely to be carried away.

"Then what should I do?"

"Shameful story, I don't have any money to collect.If you invest, I'll pay you back at least five times. "

Irvin's face clouds when he hears the words.She seems quite suspicious.I think I'm suspicious, but don't put it on your face...

However, as far as I'm concerned, there's nothing strange about it.Stealing is not a crime in Milgia, and even if an enforcement unit is arrested in Alencia, the investor will not be harmed.If we can recover the hidden treasure safely, we will make a considerable profit.

So let's ask it a little more deeply.Well, I'm working at the behest of the King of Alencia, so I can't think of helping the Count.

"How much does that treasure cost?"

"I'm sorry, but I can't give you more details.Let me say that the amount is comparable to the state's finances. "

That's a lot of money... I don't think the king will let go.Perhaps the King is chasing Count Belfort to retrieve this.

"Would you like to keep today's reward for now?"

Hurry up with the conclusions. I think I can give you a little bit of money to earn credibility. But...

Let me think about it for a second.

"Don't do that! You'll lose if you're late!?"

"Are you in such a hurry?"

"Naturally, the treasure is limited and the collection has already begun.Can I finish collecting my treasure while I'm lost!? "

According to David, the Enforcement Force returns about once every ten days.They are then exchanged in Milgia and distributed to investors.The proportion will first be less than half for the Earls and the remaining half will be distributed according to the amount invested.

In addition, those who continue to contribute until all treasures have been collected will receive a full refund of the contribution.

The total return seems to be at least five times the amount of the investment, and hopefully up to ten times.

"That's a good story, but I can't do it right now."

I slightly deceive you, but David persuades you.

"You can start with a small amount.Think you've been tricked and give me ten gold coins.After that, I would like to keep even 1,000 gold coins in ten days.I'm sure you'll be praised for your black teeth. "

David thinks I'm the bottom of a black fang.It doesn't matter if you're praised.If it stays this way, it's a parallel line, so let's negotiate from here.

"Would you let me see the Count before we invest?"

As he said that, he stacked the gold coins he had grabbed unconventionally onto the table.First of all, about 200 sheets.

"Why? Can't I trust you?"

"That's not what I meant. I want to keep an eye on my face because I'm the one who keeps 1000 precious gold coins."

I think we've loaded about 400 sheets in total. It's not far from 1,000, but it seems to have been enough for a bluff.I heard David swallowing his saliva.

"... I see. The Lord is also ready. I'll meet you at this store in three days at the same time."

"Roger, I'll earn more while I wait, thank you."

With a blind eye for gold, David accepted the request for a postponement and the impossible request. He was given a three-day respite and a considerable opportunity to face the target.Well, you're going to be busy.
