Oukoku e Tsuzuku Michi

Moving in the opposite direction from when I came to the woods, I arrived in the town [Loreil] where the caravan was supposed to raid two years ago.

I avoided it because some of you may know the old faces near the Bandits' stronghold.

Why is it so troublesome to be told you've left alone by now?

So I was thinking of going further north from Loreil, entering the opposing Arkland kingdom here from the Kingdom of Triea, and going further north to Federation territory.

There is no dust in my consciousness that I was originally a people.

And the border is huge and long, and I, the one, don't have to go down the street to be stupid and honest.

Lucy, according to information, it's not uncommon for travelers, pedestrians and mercenaries to enter and leave the empire and the Federation through the central plains.

The Federation, in particular, cannot say that the wilderness outside each fortified city is secure.

Because the army alone cannot reach it, each town often assembles free warriors to entrust them with the crusade of bandits and barbarians who have entered.

The man in charge of the weapon won't be evil noticeable, nor will he be full of food.

But first we have to find an overnight inn.

I have been in the wild for four days since I left the woods.

I've been bathing in the water every day for two years. As for myself, I care about the smell and sweat and I want to sleep in bed.

The town of Loreil is the second city after Trisnia, the capital of King Triea, with a population of 3,000 and a medium-sized town, surrounded by easy stonewalls and wooden fence barriers.

Since it is frequently used as a base in wars with neighbouring countries, supplies of kings and surrounding rural settlements were gathered and the town exhibited considerable vigour.

Two guards with spears stand in front of the wooden fence as they head to the town entrance.

"Stop! Say your name and purpose!

"Agil! Mercenaries!

Name your real name.

Trisnia, the king's capital from which I escaped... It looks like the facility was in the surrounding area outside the Wang's Wall.

In this town, close to the Wang capital, I also thought about keeping a pseudonym, but "Eigil" seems to be the name of God in the crack and famous myth.

We thought there were many mercenaries and bandits named after Dade and that they would not be identified.

"Individual mercenaries... you probably have some noisy scores"

"It's time to do the Hungry Wolf hunt on the northern plains. That's right."

Another guard is tearing up the tea because he is unmotivated.

I guess for him, one mercenary isn't interested in making a scene in town.

"But you're too big a weapon for a werewolf hunt. He's wearing a cloak and armor, and I'm sure he's thinking of something extra."

This guard seems keen to do his job and still seems to care about the heavy Valdish.

"Does that mean I'm not allowed in?

If you can't get in, I don't mean to, but Nojuku will still be the only one today.

"You could have paid a piece of town tax, silver, but you're not allowed to enter town with powerful weapons for no good reason."

I've decided to show you a traditional reason from ancient times.

Offer one gold coin for the guard.

The color of the two eyes changes as soon as possible.

"Come on, it's gold!

"Definitely, it's kingdom gold coin!

"Am I allowed to go through?

"Wolf hunting can make out with demons. We need spears and armor."

"What are you talking about, Gwen, this guy doesn't have a spear, you don't know if he's brought in under cover."

A piece of wood burned by the guard is given to me.

Apparently, this will prove you paid the entry tax.

"Blade extraction and intimidation of weapons in the city are all punishments! If the opponent is bare, it's punishment in self-defense."

"If you want to kill someone, let them pull out their weapons first in a place with a lot of witnesses."

You thought that was the end of the story. The guards are out of sight of me and making a scene about taking gold coins.

One gold coin is rampant, but today is a good day off.

And apparently, mercenaries earn money.

Monetary units on the continent are unified.

Gold coin 1 = silver coin 10 = copper coin 1000.

This ratio is inherently the exchange ratio of currencies in the Olga Federation, but it is the oldest and most stable monetary system on the continent, where countries cast all the weight of their own casting currencies in conjunction with the Olga currency.

In the past, some countries had issued currencies of their own content, but the credibility of the currencies themselves had been questioned and even their own citizens refused to receive them.

In other words, the type of currency is only the number of countries issuing it, but the gold and silver used are traded as one gold coin and one silver coin in every currency because of the same weight.

It would be about time to pay the royal or aristocratic counterpart that cares about the currency of payment.

Monetary currencies other than gold, silver and copper… Most are currencies below copper, but in some cases each country issues its own, but this one is not common and can only be used within its own country.

When I went into town and walked down the boulevard, I could see the lodging and stall sales.

"Three Rabbit Round Grilled Copper Coins! One bird at a time!

"Thirty pieces of money are ripe and delicious with one apple!"

"There's only one bronze piece of bread ready this morning."

The sale is loud and quite busy.

Yang has been over the top for a long time, and it doesn't seem to have that much time until evening, and I guess there's something out there to finish dinner with.

Lucy didn't even teach me the price of things, but when I heard the seller scream, the groceries wouldn't arrive in silver coins if they were bought in bulk by coins and copper coins in the main.

Speaking of which, most of them didn't even have silver coins when they collected the holdings of the devastated mercenary regiment.

The captain, Robano, just had the squad's operating funds or a few gold coins.

Most of the money that Lucy gives me now is gold.

Inn first.

It's almost dusk, if you're going to be in the wild in town, you're going down.

"Hey, are you looking for something?

When I was about to enter the nearby inn, I was called from behind and looked back.

I wonder if he was about ten years old, or he was a dirty, busy looking kid of his own.

"If you're going to give me a price, I'll show you. For the first time, we're pretty lost here."

Just fine, you can also think of breaking a bone walking into the inn from one end and asking about the terms.

"Well, show me the hot tub and the changer."

I only have gold.

Silver coins, copper coins would be a must to pay.

The boy's eyes shine slightly.

"Fine, it's right there. Follow me."

Walk about after the boy.

Apparently, the exchange dealer is only a little deeper than the street in town. The boy walks in the direction of the standing of the house.

Just when I started to think I was crazy, the boy's legs stopped.

It seemed that the house, which was about to break down, was lined up and the exchangers, rather than the residents, did not live there either.

"Where is the store?

"Hey, you're blurry... don't you get it yet?

Zorro and child come out of the house in ruins.

Ages vary from ten to fifteen, but they are all dirty at once.

I see. Is this what you mean?

"If you're not willing to guide me, hurry up, I told you I was looking for a place to stay and a bureau de change"

The boys are looking at each other.

"Hey, you're really blurry, there's no escape anymore. Just give me the money. I mean, you're gonna go to a money changer, so you've got a pretty good one, right?

"Come on. Come on, you're gonna look terrible!" "You're hurting me!

The kids around me cut a bar, and the guy who went up to the roof seems to throw a stone.

The mercenary age inquiry was still alive, and instantly the situation poured in.

"And it looks like he's got a big spear, but this one's a stone and a stick, and if you say so, he's got bare hands. If you pull that out, the guards will catch you and you'll look terrible."

Speaking of which, the guard at the entrance said that.

I almost forgot.

"It was. Thanks for the advice."

The boys get furious, apparently they touched it.

"Just give me the money!

"I'm gonna do it!

I'll signal you to come with my hand.

That was the signal to start.

"Do it!

Stones are thrown simultaneously from the roof and the guys with the sticks beat them up.

Avoid only orbital stones that hit your head or pay by hand.

In the first place, well-made leather armor doesn't have half-baked stone throwing effects.

"Uh-oh." "Uh-oh."

The kid hitting me grabs the stick and throws it behind him.

The child's body still weighs light and flies like it's funny.

Still, the boys' morale doesn't shrivel because they didn't hurt them, and they come at me one after the other.

One of them is screaming on the roof thinking about grabbing even the stone thrown and smacking one of them in the head.

"Out of the way!! I'm gonna smash you with this guy."

I don't know how you lifted it, but the big marutai is dropped from the top of the roof with it lying flat.

Marutai gained momentum while rolling and fell over my head......

It was taken by my left hand.

For the fall, it was a little heavy, but it wouldn't weigh that much if it even gained momentum.

I've been transported something heavier.

And the timing is sweet!

I guess you were going to aim for the gap I got hit by the whole thing, grabbing the boy's face with his right hand as he shook his stick into it.

At first he was angry, but soon turned into a bitter groan, eventually into a scream.

But salvation came before the poor boy's head was squeezed.

"Fucking kids!! What the fuck!!

"Do you want to be sent to the dungeon!!

A few guards were coming this way because of a lot of flashy noise.

"Yabe, run!

The boys will be gone at the same time.

I also pitied him away to the boy who was grabbing his head, and he went after Fluffy and his buddies as he leaked his piss.

"Those fucking kids, one day I'll put them together and bump them!

"So, it looks like you've been hit a long time, but you're not hurt?

"Oh, no problem. It's about kids."

I put the whole thing on the ground I was grabbing and pay the dust.

"I used to be safe with all those numbers of people, even though they were kids. I don't even seem to be missing anything. Why are you in a place like this?

"Oh, this is what happened when I asked one child to show me around"

The guards laugh when I see them.

"This is a masterpiece! I've never even heard a fool flirt with a slum about a worn hungry ghost!

"They can only be sleazy in the public eye, but if they're in a slum, they'll form a party."

"Whatever, I hope you're okay. Those guys make us get what we deserve one day. So where did you want to go?

I guess this guy is the captain or something when I see the soldiers around him grow up.

"I'm looking for a hot tub. And then the money changers."

"Unfortunately, bathing in this town is like a nobleman's mansion or a whorehouse. But if you stay in a pricey inn, you'll be able to wipe your body with water.

The store along Main Street will be fine. Redeemers are run by the same line of merchants. Noona seems to have it, but if you don't want to be grabbed by the money, stop it. "

Yeah, it boils out no matter how tight it is.

The captain grinned bitterly as he sighed.

I guess he is a man of credibility, I thought what you call a soldier looked more like a great thing.

"Thank you. Thank you. I'm Agil, I'm a mercenary on my own. Can I have your first name, if you don't mind?

"What, I just didn't want this town to be full of scum. My name is Gray-Magills, and I'm captain of the 2nd Platoon."

You really were a captain, and you have no place to be great with a second name, you're a human being.

"Never mind my second name. He's the third son of a knight's family, but he's noble and nothing. Better than that, that's a great spear on your back, Halvard, no. Valdish? The blade is likely to be twice as thick as ours. Is the whole thing made of steel? Where are you going with such a monster on your back?

"I heard there's a werewolf hunt in this town, and I thought I'd make some money."

"Well, it looks like even the head of a hungry wolf would be able to break it."

Did Gray have a point or not? He never pursued it any further.

"Then it's time to head to the inn, because people are gathering around the village for the Hungry Wolf Hunting Purpose. Then the inn will be buried."

That's troubling, I've decided to sleep in bed today.

"Okay, now I'm gonna make you excuse me"

"I think I feel comfortable with you. I usually patrol the east from Boulevard, so if you see me, call me!

I raised my hand, of course, to speed up my feet toward the inn.

"Well, you guys. The kids are gonna clean up the messed up road!

The guards move out on Gray's instructions.

"Damn those fucking kids. I'll kill you one day!

"Tossing stones for nothing..."

The guards who were trying to clean up Marutai, who was dropped as the road was instantly cleaned up, crumble.

"Come on... you're lying... you're not gonna be alone or freaking out... that guy just now, you lifted this with one left hand..."
