The branch carrying out the rental carriage was a short distance from the centre of the accommodation town.
There is a large horse cabin with a small house of wooden architecture.
There is a reception counter and bulletin board inside the house, and the bulletin board is hung with bills for each carriage and condition, so you can probably rent it now.
That seems to be no mistake, because it was in the letter, and it was in the immediate explanation when I came in.
"Hmm? Is this supposed to mean we're all owed"
The name is assigned for each carriage bill, but the letter 'contracted' was inscribed next to the name of all the bills.
"Ah, yes. Excuse me, customer. There are a lot of people here today, and they all paid for it. Until they all come back, it's going to take about the night."
And in response to these words, a middle-aged receptionist sitting at the counter said sorry.
"Oh, really? That's a good one."
Sorry, I couldn't show you around.
"Oh, that's okay. That's okay. I'm a little new to this lodging town, so I just wanted to see how it felt. I'm going to walk to the trading city."
The middle-aged official tilted his neck at the words.
"Walk...? I think it's going to take quite a while from here... is that okay with you? If you walk normally, it could take you a day, right? In that case, it is advisable to buy camping equipment in the store…"
"Oh, that's okay because I have it. Besides, I can adjust my walking speed."
I have magic items for camping, so it's possible to camp in the right place.
If it's our feet in the first place, we can make sure we get there before nightfall.
If you think you can enjoy the camp even if you can't wear it, there's no problem with this again.
"Oh, did you? Does having equipment for camping mean you're a traveler? 」
"Oh, I'm an adventurer, I'm circling the city"
That said, middle-aged officials cheered and raised their voices.
"Ooh. I don't see any adventurers on my journey in these days when it's stable to belong to a company... you're both young, but you have courage."
"Yes, thank you."
Actually, neither of us are young, but it's a pleasure to be praised no matter how old they are.
When I heard the middle-aged staff, Lynne, who was next door, laughed.
"That's right. The teacher has great courage. So is this trip, and hey, I'm glad someone understands...! 」
"No, well, the journey is just doing what you want to do.... But is the rental carriage here so popular every time? 」
The letter said, "I am thriving, but the customer is still sweet, so I want to do more."
It actually looks like it's thriving.
So when I asked, the middle-aged official, um, thought a little before answering.
"Well, in this lodging town, you're thriving."
"Is everything else different? 」
"Yes, because this is near a trading city that is developing now. This has been happening more recently. Until a little while ago, as with other branches, one was available for a certain amount of guests at any given time."
"Heh. In other words, has demand increased as a result of urban development"
"That's why it's painful to be keeping you waiting. As for headquarters, horses and people, they're about to increase their numbers now. … but it doesn't mean that talent will be gathered immediately, and there are lively places in other accommodation towns. Overall, that sounds like a shortage of people."
I see. When I received the letter, and because of the time lag, did these things come to light?
"It might be interesting to see how neighboring cities are developing when you travel to other accommodation towns, Doctor"
"Right. - No, I found something interesting. Thank you, officials."
"No, it was a pleasure talking to you, precious adventurer. Also, come if you need a carriage"
"Oh. Well, I'm sorry to bother you."
"And I hope you two are happy on your journey"
So, the clerk breaks up with the clerk who comes to thank us with a good smile, and we go outside the branch.
"Well, I don't know, the staff atmosphere is nice, and it's what made a good company."
"Right. Nevertheless, once I have been taught by my teacher, I will be able to understand the importance of building a relationship well, so I don't feel like there is any more. Sometimes the teacher's teaching is amazing."
"Ha, I just taught you, because it didn't actually work. It's amazing because the disciples themselves have the strength to do it."
I have nothing to do with anything in particular.
... It just kind of makes me as happy as I am when I see my apprentice doing well.
I think it's a good thing the kids who used to take care of them are active.
That's what makes my journey interesting.
I think that's a thankful story.
"Yeah. Right. Well, good luck with your trip, and if you take a little dinner break at the coffee shop, go for a trading city."
"Yes! The rice with the teacher is also a flavor of the journey. Looking forward to it!"
