"Alphonse Barca. Where are you? Answer me."
"Hmm? Here?
"Ah, oh, excuse me. As I was telling you, you really have a kid in command of a mercenary regiment. Senator Banaj wants to see you. Follow me."
"Can we all go inside the city?
"Yes, it doesn't matter. However, only a few of you will meet with Senator Banaj. This way, please."
A man from the city of Orient Country.
Looks like he's a liaison.
They will find us and lead us back to Banaj.
I changed my clothes before this man came.
Until I came here, I was wearing a coat from the top of my demon armor in my travel costume.
It was cleaned with Clean every day, so it is not so dirty.
But what it looks like is important.
Your first impression of the other person may change your attitude toward us.
That's what I thought. I put on some fine clothes.
What I'm wearing is a formal dress that was also worn in the nobility home of the Brillian Magic Nation.
If you look at this, you will certainly not be treated like a free citizen.
If that's the case, I won't complain even if I rude it.
That's what I thought, but it looks like the other party will do the right thing by looking at our outfit.
However, I was concerned that the clothes worn by the Orient Nation were quite different from those worn by the Brillian Magic Nation.
Speaking of which, I think Gran was wearing unusual clothes.
Didn't I tell you about the underwear?
She is wearing the cloth as it is and dressed like this at her waist.
I don't think it's defensive, but is it okay?
Besides, my feet are a little twitchy and it seems difficult to run.
I want to ask if such equipment is OK.
"Um, what?
"No, I wonder if everyone around here looks that good. I didn't see that kind of shirty clothes until I came to the small nations."
"Oh, is that so? There are many rivers here, and humidity will rise in the coming period. This one is a little cooler than the perfect outfit."
"Wow, is that what this is all about? Is that cloth made of cotton?
"Exactly. Cotton made from fertile land around here is also a specialty. Especially since each river's water changes the color of the fabric when it is dyed, we create our own dyed fabrics everywhere."
"Huh. Does that mean that the clothes worn by ordinary people aren't that expensive?"
"You know exactly what I mean."
"I've been acting with merchants so far. I wonder where and what I can do."
Talk to your man while you're in the city.
Looks like he's called Oliver.
It seems serious, and if we shake it, it will give us an accurate response to everything.
I'll ask you what else you want to hear.
Apparently, the Orient Country has already been invaded from somewhere this year.
We have succeeded in doing something about it.
However, the damage seems to be quite pronounced.
Those who can fight are welcome.
But it's hard to say that anyone can do it.
Anyway, I don't know what it would look like if I just pulled in the right person to fight.
Because there's nothing more dangerous than being attacked from behind by an opponent you think you're on your side.
It seems that such a situation has persisted for a long time, as I think, without gathering the strength to fight and not having enough force to resist.
Even after being attacked, I've been desperately defending myself, but it's getting harder every year.
"Alphonse went to the aristocracy of the Brillian Magic Nation, right?
"That's right. You know very well, Oliva."
"I heard from Senator Banaj. But you've come all the way from there to Orient Country, which is a dangerous battlefield. What's going on here? It's dangerous.
"That's why."
Huh?
"I'm here to fight. And the strongest one possible."
"I see. Well, then, don't worry. They're going to attack us, no matter how strong they are."
I see. I'm looking forward to it. "
"Ah, it's time to get to my destination. Mercenaries get tired of long journeys in the other building. Please come to Lord Alphonse and his sweetheart."
"Okay. Sura, I need mercenaries. Elvis, Ian, Eye, follow me."
This city seemed quite large.
Many houses were made of dirt for a while after entering.
However, there were internal walls in the city, beyond which the atmosphere of the building changed.
There are many buildings that use lots of trees.
Maybe only first-class citizens live from here on out.
With that in mind, we go further.
Then there was a large house with a bungalow in a large garden.
Looks like there's a banana there.
I finally got into the building, which seems to be called the big mansion, and I finally met Banaj.
