Summoning at Random

Episode 52: Luxeria Guild

Ling Ji and Miliez infiltrated by night darkness, but until dawn they were forced to spend time lurking in the alley.

The Adventurer Guild and others always open their points of contact, assuming that urgent requests come in even at night.

However, Aurain told me that there are still fewer visitors than during the day, and that only those who are generally determined, except for urgent cases, will visit.

What would the Alliance officials think if the leftovers Ling Ji and Miliers showed their faces in such a place?

I'm sure if you suck at being very conspicuous, you'll be suspicious.

Neither Ling Ji nor Miliez can make a big face in this France.

Decided that it was better to avoid being noticeable and decided to stop visiting the Alliance during the night.

Likewise, the two avoided taking the inn, but the lack of accommodation fees in this case can be the main cause.

I was suspicious that I could pay for a small village inn, so I couldn't possibly stay in a capital inn that would be more expensive.

Fortunately, I've defeated a few demons on the road to here, so bringing that area and material into the guild would be the amount there. That way, you can stay at the inn.

But more than turning that visit to the guild at dawn because it stood out, it was also sent ahead at dawn that the inn bill would be available, which makes no difference that you can't stay.

"It's finally dawn"

"That was a long time."

"Kah."

The two stood up on the spot and relaxed their hardened bodies when they saw the area becoming brighter because they could barely speak or move while lurking in the alley.

"I wish I had just stayed with Miliers"

"You're too clingy.

I told you I don't need that kind of attention. "

Ling Ji had been recommending that Miliers alone, a woman, stay in the Inn since last night, but Miliers had been solidifying that.

Most importantly, it was a pointless question from the outset because the balance between the two of us would not have allowed Miliers to stay without a fair amount of cheap accommodation as one.

"Nevertheless, this makes me laugh with the Holy Capital"

"Sure... na"

Although the capital of the French State of Luxembourg is the city that says it is the same as the name of the country, it is often called the Holy Capital by the faithful because it is a place where there is a cathedral, the main mountain of Holy Light.

But last night I didn't see it well because of the darkness, but the sight of the alley, made visible by the brightening, was something I didn't think was very holy.

Garbage is scattered all over the place and there is a strange odor. There were several people lying in worn out clothes, some of whom would already be breathless.

"You know, the top side is all taken care of.

It feels like a city full of decorations. "

"Fantasy, huh?"

On the other hand, when I showed my face on the front street from the alley, there was a neat city appearance there.

There's nothing like garbage falling off the boulevard, and it's full of cleanliness.

People and carriages come and go a lot, but unlike other cities, there is not that much noise.

Ling Ji, who didn't know why at first, but within a while I noticed a definitive difference from the rest of the city.

"If you say so, you won't hear a seller in the store at all."

"Cheng Cheng, if you say so.

So it's quiet. "

As Ling Ji said, I can't hear a seller trying to bring in customers despite the boulevard at all.

Of course, it's not like there's no store. The streets are lined with shops.

However, most stores are the type of stores that enter the store and shop, and there are not many items displayed in the store. Not to mention, I didn't see the dewstores or anything like that at all.

Only the capital of the Holy Nation of Henri, Unlinia, is the city of the people known to Ling Ji and Miliers, but it can be said that there is a huge difference in vibrancy compared to there.

Unlinia is vibrant… or the business soul is too successful.

"Well, I can't help it if I'm doing this here"

"Oh, let's head to the guild before we dare"

While skin felt the distorted reality of the city, known as the Holy City, the two headed to the Adventurer's Guild.

◆ ◆ ◆

An Adventurer Guild is a good offices agency in a supranational framework to help citizens live, allocating and resolving requests to adventurers that can be delivered day and night without being perceived by the smugness of each nation.

… is a huge mistake.

In practice, the biggest sponsor is each country, whose intentions often dictate policy. In addition, the characteristics of that country often appear as the colour of each guild.

For example, the guild of the Fortella kingdom has a relatively free atmosphere and is in the way of the most orthodox adventurer guild. There are many desolates, but as a whole they are widely accepted by the people.

The guild of the Holy Henri nation is full of life, with many adventurers flowing in from all over the continent due to the presence of dungeons. In addition to the normal request contracts, the Alliance's scope of work is also extensively commercial. The presence of devil adventurers in other countries is also a hallmark of the Alliance of Holy Henri Nations.

Turning now to the question of the guild of the French State of Luxembourg, the shades of the Church's lower organization of the Holy Light religion are strong.

There is also, of course, a certain percentage of the Alliance receiving direct requests, but the rest will be requests from the Holy Light Church.

That said, because the inhabitants of this city have many devout followers, the person they rely on in times of trouble is not the Adventurer's Guild, but Holy Light.

The consultation brought with the donation is divided between what St. Light corresponds to itself and what it entrusts to the Adventurer's Guild.

The Adventurer Guild can get a job from Holy Light, which leaves chores to the Guild while gaining the faith of the faithful. Such a coexistence relationship had arisen.

That's not the only reason, but some of Luxille's guilds are full of atmospheres different from those of other countries.

There is no noise among the desolate, and there is no drink among them.

Requests that cover one side of the wall if they are other guilds also exist only for the amount that can be pasted off on small message boards in this guild.

Adventurers who didn't find a good request on the message boards would line up at the reception without peeling off the paper, where they would be asked to assign requests that were not on the message boards.

This is because the requests posted on the bulletin board are only part of the requests being brought to the guild. Only those brought in directly were listed there.

Requests brought in via Holy Light are not affixed to the bulletin board and are assigned directly to the adventurer at the reception.

Such a request was made in front of the building, because it was a consultation that Holy Light received from the faithful, and to make a big deal of the fact that it was being sidelined by the guild.

Of course, the adventurers are well aware of the relationship between Holy Light and the Alliance.

As a result, few people make foolish imitations like noise on this occasion. Because if you do poorly, you will turn Holy Light, the largest religion on the continent, against your enemies.

"It's so quiet."

"You were more vibrant in the guild of the Patriarchate.

As far as I'm concerned, it's better to be quiet. "

"I don't like the noise either... but it's uncomfortable when it's quiet.

Well, let's not dare redeem it at the reception. "

The two men, who hid their faces in the hood, entered the guild of Luxyria and bewildered the atmosphere in it.

Because we whispered, the words were only heard by each other.

Those two figures...... Ling Ji and Miliez lined up behind the waiting line for reception as they were.

Unlike other guilds, we allocate requests at reception, so the row is moving slowly.

Miliez was causing frustration with the matter, but Ling Ji was silent and patient about whether it was like this.

"Next"

"Do it or something."

"Well, well."

A previous adventurer walked away from the reception, and Ling Ji, called, proceeded to an empty reception as he relented to Miliers.

Receptionists varied in age and gender, but it was men seen in their thirties to forties who were to respond to them.

What can I do for you today?

"Please redeem Demon Crusade"

"Yes, please put it here."

On the tray offered by the receptionist, Ling Ji put the bag he had taken out of the item box in advance as it was.

The receptionist, who checks the contents properly, passes the tray to another staff member who had refrained from doing so in the rear.

"It won't take that long with this amount, so please stay put"

"Okay.

... With that said, can I ask you one thing while you wait?

"? What is it?

While waiting for the redemption process, Ling Ji asked the receptionist's man.

"We have just come to this Holy Capital, are there any recent events in this Holy Capital, etc?

"Right......"

Receptionists briefly thought about Ling Ji's inquiry, citing several cases involving personnel from the upper ecclesiastical level and in the Holy Capital.

"Oh, or there was one more thing"

"What do you mean?

"I can't say this out loud yet..."

That being said, the receptionist man tried to give in and whispered to continue.

"There was a nun in the Holy City who was so admired by the citizens for being a Virgin.

Turns out she was a demon. "

Ling Ji nervous that the information he wanted to know came.

At the same time, he shook Milieus' hand to show his anger at the unmistakable suspicion of the Demon clan.

The receptionist's story was supposed to be something for them, but it makes sense that it came out of the mouth of an Alliance official.

Ling Ji urged him to continue while acting just saying he couldn't believe it as if he'd heard it for the first time.

"Oh no!? Isn't that a big deal?

"Of course. As a result, the information has not yet been made widely available."

To the words, Ling Ji leaned his head wonderfully, not acting.

"Are you glad you shared that information with us?

"We are a little further away from making it widely known to the public, but we are informing adventurers in advance because we may need to help them to contain the confusion that occurs at that time."

"Cheng Cheng"

"So I don't mind if adventurers talk to each other, but be careful not to talk to anyone else."

"Okay."

The cash changeover process was apparently completed when the story was separated, and the staff put the coins on the earlier tray and brought them to the reception desk.

"I'll be here.

Definitely or count. "

"Thank you"

Ling Ji confirmed the money he had been given and put it in a bag.

"What can I do for you?"

"Yes, thank you"

Ling Ji thanked the receptionist before urging Miliers to go outside.

◆ ◆ ◆

"People are sweet about information management."

"Huh?"

Out of the Adventurer's Guild, the two entered the alley.

It was to talk about future policies where people don't have ears, but before that, Miliers shrugs like he doesn't mind eating as he remembers about the guild receptionist earlier.

"He said he would only tell the adventurer in advance, but I don't think he could keep it a secret if he told such a large crowd"

"I guess. Rumors are already spreading... as planned"

"Hmm?"

To Ling Ji's inclusive words, Miliers tilted his neck.

"Miliers is right, I'm pretty sure if we were talking like that, the information would spread.

As much as that, you know the guild.

I know, I dare you. I mean, I want you to spread the word. "

"Oh, well done. You know what?"

Show how Miliers was convinced by Ling Ji's explanation.

When he heard information from the Pope in the Holy Henri before coming here, he had speculated that the French would discredit her in backwork and so forth to punish the desirable Filina before publicly executing her.

I mean, I guess it's also part of the backwork that the guild is giving the adventurer information. Expect the adventurers to spread the word voluntarily instead of daring to instruct them to spread the rumor.

"If so, are you saying we don't have a lot of time?"

"Right. I don't know how this is going to happen tomorrow, but if some rumor spreads, there's a risk that the execution will take place."

"So, what do we do after this?

"Let's listen in to see how widespread the rumors are. And then we need to think about how to save her."

But before that, Ling Ji, who had lined up his plans for the future, spoke.

"Before that?

"Let's take the inn"

"Right."
