"Hmm? This cereal? Don't be the first to see it."

Those at the edge of the market. In that outdoor shop, which was in a less populated area, the first time I saw it, there was a triangular brown cereal for sale.

It could be some kind of seed or nut, but it looks like cereal from the way it's sold. No way. I wouldn't weigh the nuts out in a big liter.

"This is... soba noodles."

"Heh, this is the soba! Let's buy it. I want soba."

I didn't notice because I never had a chance to see the soba nuts. It's going to be hot in the future, and I want to make sure I have the soba.

Soy sauce - you won't even have to put up with it more than you have something that looks like it.

Good things. If Yuki makes udon, I'm sure she'll make soba noodles in a good way.

"This is pretty hard to powder, isn't it? It takes a lot of work to take a buckwheat shell, grind it in a stone mold, and hang it on a sieve. Nao, will you do it all?

"Ugh, um, well..."

I normally sell wheat flour, so I don't need the hassle of that bun.

Instead of soba noodles, should we put up with the noodles?

My distressed uncle called out to me, who seemed a little weak.

"Um, could you buy it, if you don't mind? I'll make it cheaper."

Halka, who said so and heard the forehead offered by his uncle, turned her eyes a little surprised.

I'm not usually in charge of food shopping, but according to Hulka, it's less than half the price of wheat.

"Why is it so cheap?

"I can't sell it, he said it's this city. I don't really have a habit of eating soba."

This uncle is a man coming for sale from a cold village a short distance from Kerg, and in that village without very good land, he says, many soba are made that are easy to grow.

However, soba noodles with the image of a savage crop are not very popular and cannot be sold in Kerg.

Because of this, we don't usually come to sell soba wheat in our village, but this year, other crops are poorly made, and if we don't sell soba wheat, we can't help it?

Uncle who explains that and sighs like trouble.

"Even if soba is somewhat cheaper, wheat is still more popular..."

"Well, that's what happens when you're a person who doesn't usually eat. It's hard to handle...... you eat like that in your uncle's village?

"Yes, peel, then boil and eat"

Is that delicious? Something like porridge?

I don't even think I want to eat much... just soba, though it might be nutritious.

"What do we do?

"It's cheap and you can buy something else...... I don't know what to do. If you want to buy it, you have to make a special tool, right? I can't even say that Nao and the others found out by hand."

"Us!? No, well, maybe we're in charge."

If the Hulkas are told to do as much as they prepare before then than they are in charge of cooking, they have to.

Will it be ground in stone molars? Or would you even use it in a wooden mortar?

Looks like rice mosquitoes do it using a wooden mortar, and can you take a buckwheat shell with it? It's not like you're gonna strip one capsule by hand, is it?

"No, that's why I'm not telling you. - Yeah, right. Fine, uncle. I'll buy you a bunch."

"Yeah!? Is that good? Pretty good, huh?

My uncle raises his voice to Hulka, who was a little worried and said so.

My uncle was right, the dewstore was still loaded with three big bags.

One size, imaginatively, is about one portion of the mound "Straw".

In a relationship that often comes this way and moves the body, Toya, as well as the women, will need a considerable amount of time to consume this amount, even though she says she has started eating quite a bit.

I don't even eat soba every day. As far as I'm concerned, a summer's worth of soba would suffice... No, do you have some year-end soba? Well, still, with a bag, it should normally be enough.

"But only this time. Because we don't live in this city."

"That still helps! Thanks! Uh, where do I carry it?

"Oh, it's okay. 'Cause I'm taking it home."

I pay my uncle to thank him for his delightful face, and Hulka takes charge of one bag.

I guess the other two are in charge of me. Yeah.

Using muscle strength enhancement, place two bags on both shoulders. - Heavy!

I knew it was over 100 kilometers. If you lose your eyes, let's put them in a magic bag as soon as possible.

Say goodbye to your uncle, who dropped his jaw on Hulka, who lightly handles the bag, and we quickly move into the alley and throw the soba into the magic bag.

"But Cold Village is tougher than you thought, huh?

"Right. It wasn't a big deal, but... is it hard to get cash?

"If you just eat, do you feel self-sufficient"

The amount paid by Hulka is less than the average worker's weekly wage.

We could make less than a day.

It seems pretty hard to live if you haven't even lived with less cash.

I hear that many of the adventurers have come out of the countryside, but I'm a little convinced.

Then for a few more hours.

Having purchased some ingredients that Hulka was interested in and had a brief lunch at the stall, we headed to the Adventurer's Guild, which also serves as a meeting place with the Natsukis.

Once inside, the number of adventurers was low in time and the Natsukis were still invisible.

"Hello, Nao. I was alone with Toya today..."

It was the receptionist sister who got along a little in the last few days who called me.

I guess it was a little conspicuous that I didn't get a request and that's the party that immerses me in the dossier room every day.

"Yeah, we've already read it all."

"You're all keen to study, aren't you? I don't read materials if I don't need them - on the contrary, many adventurers don't even read them when they need them."

"You have a library, but you're not well."

"Yes. Especially since some people can't read the letters, there are parts of me that I can't help... for once, I also have more diagrams"

"Oh, is that why? It was definitely easy to read."

Even if you can't read the letters, that should help you somewhat.

Incidentally, the literacy rate in this country is not very good, and even if I manage to put in people at a level that I can read, half of them, less than 20% can write without being free.

"By the way, I heard you're going back to Raffan tomorrow..."

"From Toya? That's right, I plan to do that."

"If you don't mind, could you take this request?

I peek into the paper that was offered to me like that, with me and Hulka.

"... the bandit crusade?

"Yes, it looks like Raffan and I have been out lately."

"But this is a request from the Alliance, isn't it? Why would the Alliance ask for a bandit crusade?

If you look closely at Hulka's words, the client is indeed an guild.

If the Lords and Merchants are clients, they will understand, but it is a little inexplicable that the Adventurer Alliance will issue a crusade request. The Alliance is an organization for adventurers, not for policing.

"I can't say that very loudly, but thank you, the bandit seems to have collapsed."

Halka and I looked at each other and listened back to the words of our sister, who lurked her voice with a slightly troubled look.

"When a bandit is an adventurer, does the guild do the crusade?

"Absolutely not, but it does if the adventurer is very likely. Adventurer's reputation is to the detriment of the Alliance."

Oh, a firmer organisational operation than I imagined. I also thought at the time of the Alliance Rank that the overall interest seems to be well thought out and determined.

Unlike craftsmen and others, did I just say that adventurers can be a bunch of rogues if they don't tighten up around them just for a profession that anyone can be?

"But why to us?

"Sometimes I just get back to Raffan, because you guys are rank 4. There aren't many Rank 4 adventurers in this city."

"Really?

"Yes, there are a lot of people, and there are a lot of jobs, but there are no very difficult jobs in this city."

When I graduated from Lafan, I thought this city, but apparently this city doesn't make that much of a difference as well as the difficulty of asking.

Indeed, as far as the requests posted were concerned, nothing seemed more difficult.

There seems to be no difficulty with work because of the large number, but there seems to be nothing more to make than Raffan, at least as far as we are concerned.

"But is it a bandit crusade...... Hulka, what do you think?

"If you're going to attack me, whether you can find me or not, right?"

"Of course I'd appreciate it if you could clean the azito clean it up nicely, but it doesn't seem to be very large, so I guess we'll probably all be attacking you, right? Besides, the reward itself is paid for by the number of guild cards you collect, so you can get paid even if you can't find Azito"

According to the information currently available, the number of bandits is around 10. They're attacking the merchant's carriage a few times.

At times, he should have been active when we moved from Lafan to Kerg, but he didn't see us then.

You didn't happen to be there, or you couldn't find the point in attacking us running in small numbers? - Probably the latter.

"But would it strike us traveling on foot? Hunting mountains without a clue is not the right thing to do."

"Right...... I'll lend you a carriage from the guild. You can return it to Raffan, and we can give you the reward there. So how about that?

It's a good condition, right?

Turning his gaze to Hulka, Hulka nodded small after worrying a little.

"Then... can I get back to you after I talk to my buddies? I'll come to a conclusion by the end of the day."

"Yes, of course. Best regards,"

So he nodded to his sister, who bowed his head, and we moved away from the counter to the information room where Toya was.
