Episode 397 Tower and College, Outsourcing

Then me and Lorraine made a stopover and then followed the Eastern Catholic Yarlan Branch's main mountain, the Ephes Grand Temple.

Regardless of Lorraine, I rarely make a stopover, but unlike in the past, it was something I could do because I could afford to be there.

Well, that being said, about a few silver coins.

If you hang in there, the average family has enough money to live in for a month, so it's never cheap.

Well, that being said, I wonder if I can buy about thirty kilos of bread...

I don't know how much Lorraine dropped in.

On average, a typical Eastern Catholic stopover would be, well, about a few copper coins.

When adventurers join us here, their foreheads jump, but adventurers have no choice because they are a profession that spends money like hot water.

That's all there is to make, but spending is also not comparable to other professions.

I'm getting a headache just from the tools and stuff...

Even lowly adventurers have a good amount of money on their own, but they still rarely end up in a deficit considering what they do to maintain their weapons.

The only way for adventurers to keep their nostalgia warm is to work hard and improve their strength.

"Now, I wonder what you have to do in the King's Capital is souvenirs and a glimpse into Her Royal Highness."

A while after Lorraine left the Ephes Grand Temple, she said so.

"Right...... well, souvenirs will be fine when we leave the King's Capital. Lina just demanded things that didn't seem very sunny..."

"If it's about food, you can also magically slow down corrosion a lot, but you might want to think about it later."

This is not about using space-time magic, it's about cooling and removing moisture.

Although space-time magic does not exist separately, its difficulty is different from that of the normal.

It's not easy to handle.

When it comes to metastatic magic, it's typical temporal space magic.

How can I say Lorraine?

Of course, it doesn't take a lot of time to prepare and gather materials and talent, but it's not a technology used for souvenirs.

If a dozen brilliant magicians were sitting around a huge magic formation and pouring a huge amount of magic into the center while casting a huge spell, while dazzling the suspicious light of the King's Capital Souvenir cake or something, whoever it was would want to cling to that it was too much of a waste of high-ranking magic.

Though, I can't say Lorraine would never do that because there are parts of her that could do that with a joke.

I don't feel like trying it once, either.

There is somehow a romantic experiment that I can understand even if I just thought a little that no one else would have done it......

I've been thinking about that in my head the whole time, but Lorraine, of course not, keeps talking.

"Then it will be a glimpse into Her Royal Highness, Lent. You, did you bring that medal properly?

By Lorraine, I mean the medal Naus Anklo, who named the Knights of the Kingdoms of Yarlan, who was escorting us when we helped Her Royal Highness.

At that time, some of the patterns were painted on Knaus's armor… that is, the family crest of his house, which depicts a unicorn skewering a demon, a kind of demon prop that deals with identification.

When I offered to see him, he told me to show him to the gatekeeper of the royal palace, and he didn't give it to me, he treated it like a loan.

Naturally, there's no way I'm going to lose it, and I won't forget this again, so I'll hold on to it... it should.

"... yeah, he said he was definitely stuck in here..."

Put your hands in the bag of crap and magic, and remember.

"... why do you seem so anxious"

Lorraine looks at me anxiously while saying the same thing.

No, I think I probably let him in, but there will be accidents.

That's the kind of anxiety.

Definitely...... put it in, should......

While I was not so sure, I was relieved that the metal felt firmly in my hand.

Pulling my hand out of the bag, I did have the medal I got there then.

"There it is!

"Naturally... I sweated a little cold."

While Lorraine says that, I flush it with a serious eye.

"No... but this crest, it's noisy no matter how many times you look at it. After all, when it comes to a house that produces a Kingsguard Knights Commander, does it even come out of these places that you need to let them know your martial name?

"I guess that's what it is. Nobility is important to look good… of course, if it is not accompanied by the contents, it is something that will soon be driven down. With this, we can also enter the royal palace... first of all, I'm anxious to see if I can talk to you."

The meaning of Lorraine's words is that the Wang Capital is stretched with a network of countermeasures against demonic intrusions, so I'm not perceived.

In the meantime, when I entered, I did something with the LaTour family's magic props, but I suppose it would be a royal palace...

"But in Lorraine's sight, you think you're gonna be okay, don't you?

"Well. For once, we've looked into the demon props used in the Yarlan Royal Palace to detect demons, and we've also tried to see if you can get caught. Everything, you know, was unresponsive. So you won't have to worry too much... but you should think about what happened. Actually, I'm borrowing one from Adele."

And Lorraine said something unexpected.

"... the hell, when?

"Of course, it's from Malt. I was in the carriage quietly, didn't you notice?

"If you ask me, there was a mouse (Petite Suri) on it... but I was wondering if something wild had just gotten in"

When I was traveling in a carriage, I didn't even care because it was normal.

I still thought it was something I got off on the way because there was already no sign of it when I went through the gates of Wang Du...

"Naturally, though the mouse Petite Suri can't enter the King's Capital with something that clearly looks like a demon, unlike you. Besides, I wanted to make sure that the LaTour family's magic props were as effective, so I had the King's Capital infiltrate me first. Now they're wandering around the aristocracy. To see if it's okay to go in there with that magic prop. As soon as it's done, we'll have the royal palace infiltrated."

I thought it was something with a very solid plan in place, but leave me alone, the Lord of Edel, and why is Lorraine so willing to communicate with the mouse Petite Suri...

He sensed I thought of that, Lorraine says.

"I've been thinking a lot about this visit to the Royal Palace, too. In solitary, at least, he seemed to be crushing things like not being able to make sure he was safe in advance... Adele seemed to have heard that, and brought her men to me. Thank you, but I think you're telling me to use this. I wasn't able to have a conversation, but I nodded and shook my head at my words, and I was able to confirm my will, so I was asked to cooperate."

... Aren't you overactive autonomously?

I think it's okay because it's for me...

Lorraine continues.

"But Adele is neat. I've been asking for a reward."

"Reward?"

"Oh. There would be demon props in the house for temperature control, wouldn't there? They want that set up in the basement of the orphanage. Of course, if that's how you're going to take on this dangerous mission, that's why I agreed."

... you kept quiet because it wasn't just for me, you mean...

Well, it's not like there's anything to lose, okay?

"I get the whisper. But when it's resolved, the three of us have to go to Her Royal Highness."

I said, Lorraine nodded, too.

"Oh. I have to get in touch with Augley. I heard about the location of the boarding house before. Let's visit there in the meantime."
