My First Trip was to Another World

Now that the extermination of the Ghost is complete, I will return to Wang Capital as soon as possible to report completion. When I get to Mr. Beverly's pace, the sun goes down. Let's get Claire to do some pampering on the way home.

"Claire, can I ask for Mr. Beverly?

"Fine."

When Claire agreed comfortably, Ms. Beverly instantly shook her head to the side and denied it.

"I don't need it... I'm going home alone..."

"Huh? The report should be with you. And I get paid."

"It's okay..."

That's how Mr. Beverly blocked my words.

"It's okay, isn't it? Because it seems different from our reward."

Claire says it's obvious. Indeed, Beverly's request is a 'crusade', and the only one for us is a 'escort'. Rewards are given separately. As a result, I crusaded, but the rewards offered earlier will not change.

"Oh well. So, you're saying goodbye to Mr. Beverly here."

"See you..."

Mr. Beverly walked out squeaking like that. Acting alone in the middle of the meadow...... never praised, but originally a solo adventurer. I guess I'm used to traveling alone. Claire was also a solo adventurer before, so maybe it's not that dangerous.

No... what's missing is Mr. Beverly's co-ordination. Probably easier to be alone. I won't be forced to hold back.

He transferred to Wang Du and went straight to the Adventurer Guild. Elysia was very surprised at the speed of the resolution, but convinced with a look that she had agreed: "It's Mr. Ko..."

Finally, I also told him the details of the Ghost and what I crusaded, "Because I'm Mr. Coe..." and accepted the report with a face like I gave up with a distant eye. Well, it's the usual sight.

He then received the reward and the amount of the purchase of the aug and returned to Erminsur.

And a few days later, we decided to go to the countryside. I didn't go right away because I thought the Ghost disturbance might not have calmed down. You'll be able to see the village as usual now.

I moved near the village and stepped inside the village. The village is surrounded by vast fields, lined with a few run-down wooden houses. Some of them are stone houses, like those in the King's City, but many are worn out wooden.

And the villagers seem to be caged inside the house. Are you wary of strangers...... There's got to be farming work, but I'm not trying to get out of the house. Well, I guess it's none of my business. I just look at the village and walk. But......

"Nothing..."

"Rural is such a thing. What were you expecting?

"No, I didn't expect anything in particular..."

If I insist, I wanted to see windmills and water wheels. I thought there was a flour mill because this country is a wheat culture. I've seen a broken windmill stone mold on TV before. I was wondering if I could see something moving on active duty, but that one came off.

"This is what my village looked like... I kind of miss it."

Leeds shrugged emotionally. If you mean rural, I wonder if I could get Leeds from rural to explain it to me.

"What's going on with the crop you made? Don't you process it and ship it?

It is mainly wheat that is produced here. They ship to Wang Du, but they tend quite a bit when they are not powdered. Besides, straw also becomes fertilizer. It should be inefficient not to mill in this village.

"Look, there. We're going to powder it in that building."

On behalf of Leeds, Claire replied. Apparently Claire is familiar with these things from her adventurer career. At the tip of Claire's finger is a large stone building. Whatever you think, it's a normal warehouse.

"Hmm? It's a normal building, isn't it? How are you powdering it?

When I squeal my questions, Mr. Lily answers them well.

"It would be decided on a demonic prop. I use powder mills developed by past court magicians."

It's a magic trick. I don't have the flair, but this country deserves it.

"I see. I'm convinced there's no windmill."

"... how do you turn a windmill when the wind around here is irregular"

Claire says with a smile on her face. The area is surrounded by mountains and the wind direction changes corny. You're not fit to spin a windmill.

Then turn it with a demon prop...? It's the end of the day. Doesn't make sense.

"I see. I wonder if there's anything else to see?

Shit. I think I'm tired of this. It was a village with nothing more than I thought.

"I don't think so, do you?

Luna says in a flat manner.

"No?

"It's not okay because there's nothing. Relax, it'll calm you down."

That's what Claire said and took a big, deep breath. Well, I don't know how that feels. There is an atmosphere in this village as if time were going slowly.

That said...... pretty boring. If you have nowhere to look, I want to set up a tent somewhere to relax.

"Let's find a place around the village where we can set up a tent."

"... Probably not?

Claire says so at first sight.

"Huh? You don't have that either?

"If there's such a vacant lot, I'll use it for my luggage storage. Because visitors to the village are limited, they usually stay at the village chief's house."

Wow... I'll never calm down. Let's go home to Elminsur at night.

"Oh well... In the meantime, let's look inside the village and walk."

As I gave up half way through the village stroll, I noticed something trembling from inside my magic bag. Either a smartphone or a transcriber, but this tremor is a transcriber.

"Not again..."

My dissatisfaction leaked unexpectedly. Then Luna looks at me in surprise.

"What is it?

"Probably a call from Wang Du. Now I wonder what."

I received my last reward, and there should have been no deficiencies. What the hell can I do for you?

Remove the transcriber from the magic bag and read what is written.

As always, it started with the greeting of the hour, so I skip reading it appropriately. And to sum up the main point, it was about, 'Face the guild of the king's capital because the demon is out'. Even though there are many extra letters, important information is still not written today.

So, where are you! What's going on out there!

"What is it about?

"Also, show your face to the King's Guild. It was just like last time."

I kind of feel like it's being used for the king's good. I don't like it a bit, so I guess I'll reject it at a good time. Well, there's no reason to say no today, so let's take it on.

"I don't mind that, but I'm here because of you, and you couldn't slow down."

Claire groaned sighingly.

"Well, wouldn't that be nice? There's nowhere to look, nowhere to stay. It's not the kind of village you'd stay in for long."

Naturally there is no accommodation and there is not even a vacant lot where a tent seems to be able to set up. If you can set up a tent in the middle of the field or in the middle of the road, I think you can stay as long as you want. But that would be just annoying......

"So is that. I like these villages, but if I can't stay, I'll have to go home."

Where opinions have been gathered, they are transferred to the Wang Capital. I feel a little sorry for you, but this village really doesn't have anything.

I was able to arrive in the Wang capital in an instant. Metastatic magic is hard to pick places that are invisible, but otherwise very easy.

The destination in Wangdu is the rooftop of the Adventurer Alliance. We usually travel on the roof, so it's not unnatural to come down from the roof.

So jump off the roof and get inside the guild.

"Hello"

When I opened the door and rang inside, Mr. Elysia greeted me with a smile, as usual.

"Thank you for coming, Mr. Coe. You arrived a long time ago, were you still in Wangdu?

"No, I'm not. I was touring the village."

When I answered that, Mr. Elysia suddenly clouded her face.

"Ah... I'm sorry about that..."

He's distressed by what got in his way. But sightseeing is all right now. I finished watching the whole thing, so whenever I left, I had no problem.

"Well, you don't have to worry about it. It was a village with few attractions, so I could use it now."

"No, I'm not. Near that village again, Ghost was witnessed..."

Mr Elysia says so at first sight. Ghost just crusaded the other day.

"Again? Isn't that a mistake?

It's possible we've been reporting on the Ghost we crusaded by a time difference. Or I can only assume so.

"No. I was witnessed yesterday evening. The inhabitants of the village came earlier in a great hurry to report. I checked with the guild, so I'm pretty sure."

"Right...... Then you're pretty sure."

Because of Ghost's sighting, the villagers were caged in the house...

I didn't eradicate the source of the outbreak, so isn't it surprising it reappeared?

"Yes, same as last time, looks like an ogre ghost"

From Mr. Elysia's tone, there is tension. It's that big, fat ghost. It would be quite a threat.

But I don't know the terms of Ghost's appearance. Even if we exterminate the Ghost today, if we don't eradicate the cause, it'll gush over and over again.

"Wait. Ghost outbreaks are rare, aren't they? It's strange to appear twice in the same place in such a short period of time. There's got to be some cause."

"I see...... That's true. According to one theory, many corpses tend to occur in places where they are abandoned."

... Is that it? This isn't my fault, is it? I almost left it in the woods, right?

"Uh... is there any other condition?

"Right. Anything like, the more powerful demons are likely to appear, the more likely they are to occur..."

Right. It's a forest with lots of orga, isn't it? If you leave a large number of bodies behind, that'll gush the ghost too... I'm the cause.

Suppose one ghost occurs against one aug... maybe thirty? That's awkward. Let's stick it out and finish it.

"Thank you. I get it. This time, the cause will also be eradicated."

The point is, you just have to bring all the material back, right? I get it. All you have to do is mass produce a magic bag and then head over.

"Thank you for taking it on. I'm calling in Mr. Beverly, so may I ask you to stand by in the King's Capital?

I don't know where Mr. Beverly is right now. If I wait for you to relax, the Ghost is going to gush infinitely.

"No, that's a waste of time. We're going to the crime scene first, so why don't you tell them to go after us later?"

"Ah... right. Mr. Ko stabbed you in the stomach last time."

Elysia gives a truly fallen look.

"Right. This was my first time, so I couldn't figure it out. This is my second time, so I feel like I could do it a little better."

I know attack patterns and how to deal with them because I'm fighting once. Even if we were surrounded by a few ghosts, we should be able to deal with them well to some extent.

"As long as I can count on it. Now, I'll give Mr. Beverly a call from me, so Mr. Coe and I need you to head to the scene first."

When Ms Elysia said so, Luna raised her hand modestly.

"Mr. Coe, do you have a minute?

"What?

"Mr. Beverly, you wanted to go with Mr. Coe."

Mr. Beverly said he wanted to see me fight the Ghost. I'm not forgetting about that. But you should give priority to crusading today.

"You're gonna be okay. You won't be far away yet, so hurry up and we can rendezvous."

Before we start exterminating the Ghost, we should need to exterminate the Auga again this time. Plus, not necessarily one ghost is gushing. It's going to take a while anyway, so I think we can fight together if you get us on our way right away.

I know the crime scene in the first place, so it's a waste of time to get together here. Local assembly, local disbandment, okay?

"... so is that. Shall we go then?"

"Well, that's what we're gonna do, because we're gonna go first. Tell that to Mr. Beverly."

"Okay. Best regards,"

I said we'd go first, but we'll head to the village tomorrow. Return to Elminsur today to mass produce a magic bag. With a bunch of magic bags that go in in bulk, you should be able to bring home all the crusaded augs.

It looks like the ghost will gush infinitely when you leave the material behind...... Ghost's crusade request makes money, but you can't do it. morally.
