Episode Twenty-eight: I've Got Botched
"I wish I had a map..."
"Hmm? What, you want a map?
That's what the leader said when he was listening to my crush.
"Oh, yes. I thought it would be helpful if I had a map."
That said, the four adventurers whispered as they looked at each other.
"Hey, to tell you the truth, we have a map"
What, seriously?
"There was a senior adventurer I was kind enough to ask him to give in when the adventurer retired."
Hey, I envy you.
I want a map, too.
"Of course, it's not as detailed as the military greats have, it's just a big mess of which countries are around."
Yeah, yeah, it doesn't have to be that detailed.
That's what you should know about the location of countries, even with me.
"So, if you want, I can give it to you."
Is that true?
"This map is already in our heads. I can handle it without this. So, how about a piece of gold?
One gold coin, hmm...
I want a map, but one gold coin. Hey, of course I know that paper is valuable.
One gold coin. Hey, don't worry.
"Could you show me that map?
Looks like you should make a decision after watching.
"Whoa, that's good."
A leader took a collapsed map out of his nostalgia.
"This is it."
He opened the map and showed it to me.
Yeah, that's a real mess.
But now I know the location of the country.
I'd like one, but now you're a little hesitant about one gold coin.
"I'm telling you, it's so precious."
I know that.
I didn't even put it in the bookstore, and I didn't find it in the library.
"But you're the one who got me drunk, so I'm gonna lose a little. Right, how about eight silver coins?
Eight silver coins?
I want maps, paper is precious, um...
All right, let's buy it.
It would be better if there was something there, and I wonder if you could use about eight pieces of silver coins as expenses.
"Eight silver coins, please."
"Okay, I sold it"
I gave the leader eight silver coins to get the map.
"Well, I'll be home early tomorrow."
"Yes. Thank you for the helpful story. And the map."
"Oh, I mean fine. Bye."
That said, the four adventurers left.
Oh, I got the map.
I wasn't even in the bookstore, and I was thinking if I had an old map in the library, I could talk to the adventurer about it and make my own, but in the end, there wasn't anything in the library that looked like a map.
I was thinking it might not be possible to get the map anymore, but I didn't know you could get it here.
I was lucky.
"Pup......"
"Couscous."
... what? There are adventurous people laughing at me.
"Buh, dude, you guys are gonna laugh so bad"
That's what one of the adventurers said to the guys laughing.
That's what I'm saying. You'd be laughing, too.
"Um, something for me?
You can get mad at me for this, right?
When they laugh at me and say that to the guy a little mucky, it feels like the guy returns "bad, bad," but not bad at all.
"I was listening to you earlier, but you're fooling me."
What? What are you talking about?
What do you mean, you're being fooled?
"You were buying maps from adventurers, weren't you?
I bought it, but you're telling me what's wrong with that?
"You know, I normally sell them in the Adventurers Guild."
………………………?
No, no, no, wait, wait.
An Adventurer's Guild, normally, for sale?
... Huh?
"I have one, too. Here."
That's what you told me and showed me was exactly the same map I just bought from an adventurer for eight silver coins.
As I glanced at the same map, more men dropped bombs.
"By the way, the Adventurer's Guild sells it for one silver coin."
Ginka, Ichimai......
One silver coin. Eight silver coins. Oh-huh?!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
"I can't believe they gave me one piece of silver coin. It was a lot of bother. Gahahahahaha"
The adventurers who were in the liquor store laughed at the words.
Chickshaw, you're laughing.
I want to cry.
"This map is an adventurer's guild, and I listen to the adventurers and I make it myself. So it's paper, but the price is set for us to get it."
"Yes, yes. Well, some adventurers rely on their memories without buying maps, but some of the guys who buy maps are cool. You know, you write about your city, your village, there's a lake along the way, and there are demons like this on your way to this city, and you write about it and you make it your own map."
"Some adventurers who often work in their own country only write big copies of that country and write their own details. You know, it's property, so I don't show it to anybody else."
"With that said, it looks like they're selling the same map in the Merchant Guild."
"Well, adventurers and merchants are traveling all sorts of countries."
The adventurers who were laughing have said that one after the other.
Were you selling not only the Adventurer Alliance, but also the Merchant Alliance?
My bookstore husband didn't say a word of that.
I guess the bookstore is in the Merchant Guild, too, but bookstores don't seem to mean selling and walking to other cities and countries, and maybe I was neglected about the neighborhood.
Whatever it is, you laughing adventurers out there, you tell me that before I get fooled.
"" "" "Well, it's worse to be fooled" "" "
… you are the best.
Grungy, regrettable, but right.
I'm sure it won't even be a sin to this extent in this world.
I just have to give up thinking I studied this.
Tohoho......
