Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

A week in Kanya.

When I visited Mr. Gantz's shop again, the rest of the protective equipment was also complete.

When you wear it and make the final adjustments, you're just using luxury materials and it's easier to move than ever before.

To be worn from the top of the clasp, the emphasis is on suppleness and shock absorption, while not cutting with a poor blade, and the piercing resistance is high enough.

Emphasis on stiffness for armor, shin, knee, etc.

While in the same leather, the nature seems to change a lot due to the way it is processed, auxiliary materials, etc., and this one is so defensive that it doesn't hurt at all, even if it is beaten with a hammer or something.

The plain and most user-friendly of all, Globe.

The gloves made to fit perfectly in each person's hands also accommodate such detailed tasks that you would not have been able to take them off if you had ever done so, and there is nothing wrong with grasping the blade resistance to the extent of a normal knife.

Given that other protective gear is insurance stuff and usually not very useful, this glove would be the one that works best.

I know it will wear out for that matter, but I still have the Darls Bear leather secured, so you should make it again.

The boots I received last time were also matched and I was able to do it quite satisfactorily, but if I say the difficulty, is that the cost?

Combined costs for everyone, that's enough money that a house could be built. Darls Bear's leather, despite bringing it in, is this.

As always, weapons and protective equipment are really expensive.

That said, I can't replace my life, so I just have to give up there.

"Uh-huh, the price of food is a little high,"

On our way home from Mr. Gantz's shop, we were coming to the city to buy food in preparation for our next expedition.

It was Yuki who said it was a little troublesome while peeking into an outdoor store that felt like it was smaller than usual.

"Really?

I usually leave the grocery shopping to me, so I don't really know what the market is.

Sometimes I carry baggage, but it's not unnatural to put it in a magic bag for a certain amount, and the Hulkas are powerful enough, so there's not much point in following them.

"I know there are some seasonal fluctuations... but maybe don't think it's higher than usual"

"Well, I've been asking you a few questions, but the price seems to be going up a little bit as imports are running late."

Hulka, who was a little away from us and stopped by another store, also comes back and says it like that.

According to the story Hulka has been asking, the deputies are taking measures due to the release of stockpiles and the increase in the production of crops using fertilizers that we have provided information on, but they still haven't caught up.

Moreover, the merchant buyout seems to be holding back the power, without which it would have risen more once and for all.

I guess it's not good to think of it as a free economy, but if the rulers are decent, this is the kind of political system that works effectively in an emergency.

If it were Japan, they would just say, "The legal basis is different."

In particular, there are anomalies in which 'voluntary' matters can be pursued in disregard of the 'legal basis', even if the media cooperates.

"But you're in trouble...... Do we take this opportunity to buy in somewhat?

And the Hulkas shook their heads and denied Toya's words, adding, "We need food to get into the dungeon," he said.

"No, I can't believe I bought it at a time like this"

"Right. If you buy more than you need, the confusion just spreads. It's important for each and every one of us to restrain ourselves, right?

"Right. I can't believe there was a shortage of goods in the metropolitan area during the earthquake, mostly because of that."

When a major earthquake strikes, people push to supermarkets outside of the disaster to buy in more than usual.

I've seen such sights before.

Even in Japan, where distribution is developing, there is a shortage of goods.

Serious food shortages can occur in this world, where the movement of supplies is so time-consuming that it cannot be compared.

To a certain extent, we can procure our own goods, which we should refrain from doing.

And I thought, Hulka shrugs her shoulders gently and laughs.

"You don't have to worry, I've been buying in for a long time, so it's okay."

"Really?

"Yeah. Isn't any crop the cheapest time of the season? For those of us who have a magic bag, don't you think there's no reason not to buy it in bulk at that time of year?

Ask him, he stocks wheat, rye and vegetables for about a year.

In this world where storage facilities are underdeveloped, the best quality is immediately after harvest. Over time, the quality will drop and the price will rise.

If you can even make funds available and store them safely, there is certainly no reason not to buy them.

"There's no need to say anything about meat or fish, so when it comes to us, there's probably no summer vegetables."

"I started stocking in late fall, so hey."

They were able to afford it financially and started buying in seasonal stuff from that time when they found out the house was available.

"Fortunately, summer vegetables haven't gone up much."

The less well-preserved summer vegetable regions are mainly around this town, where they can be expected to have no impact if they are meant to be, or rather even lower prices due to the effects of fertilizers.

Still, the slight price increase seems to have been influenced by other food price increases.

"Well, why don't you just buy it and go home? It's not very expensive."

"Right. We have a home garden."

"I'm planting a melon with an imo."

In relation to leaving it alone while diving in the dungeon, what we are growing in our garden now are sweet potato-like imos and uridae plants like pumpkins and sirloins.

Thanks to the use of the example fertilizer, the leaves are very busy, but compared to other summer vegetables, it is easier and better that they don't seem to have much of a problem even if left unattended.

Of course, it's something else if you're going to make something beautiful, but if you don't constrain it to shape and size, it's fruitful that you're likely to eat quite a bit.

Does pollination work also not need to be done because the number of bees is higher than in modern times?

"Speaking of which, melons, it's time to harvest. The next time you come back, you'll miss the time, and when you get back today, you'll reap it."

"Are you going to make it a pickle?

"Yes, part of it."

Shirouri-like vegetables seem to be eaten in soup around here, but Natsuki pickles some of them.

'No liquor or or no liquor,' he was leaking dissatisfaction, but a former high school student's hobby (?) What about pickles as?

From those of us who don't have to worry about preserving it, there doesn't seem to be any need for it to be pickled, but from the nuts, it seems to emphasize texture and flavor over preservativeness.

I'd eat a little pickle if I had rice too, but I thought bread was the main thing... considering I'm buying pickles, something similar?

"Oh, speaking of which. I used to run an enhanced meat buying campaign at the guild."

"Hmm? Hulka, what time did you go to the guild?

"I just stopped by this morning. to receive a backpack license fee."

"... Speaking of which, you had that"

Running every morning, they stopped by along the way to pick it up.

The backpack sells there, and Hulka's share seems to be quite an amount from the general public, but given our income today, that percentage is very small.

Feels like I said a penny that I can occasionally get as I recall.

"So it's the" Meat Buying Enhancement Campaign "? What's that?"

"Keep it up. As a part of the effort to eliminate food shortages, we are buying animals and demons that become meat in slightly more increments than usual. For once, Diora asked me to help..."

"It's hard to figure out what to do. Once in the dungeon, the meat..."

"I don't know under there, but so far, it's just a bunch of little things."

Toya is right, so far all the demons that have come out in the dungeons are demons that are not suitable for the use of collecting meat.

If you're going to shoot demons who can take a lot of meat, such as oaks, killer gators and bound vipers, you're going to explore the woods......

"It's hard to be hot."

"Right. That's why I'm going into the dungeon."

The Kerg thing is a bit untimely, too.

Around autumn I also had the option of increasing the amount of hunting...... no, it's still better?

Around the harvest season, on the contrary, wheat reserves may have decreased. In this town, which relies on imports around it, it could have been tough.

Especially if we don't get rid of Kerg by then.

"What do we do? I haven't contributed much to the guild lately, and I was wondering if I could sell some thanks here."

With that being said, don't you feel very comfortable inside, the look on your face is subtle?

Even Hulka probably doesn't want to work in the woods sweating in the heat.

"Well...... I'm making money buying and selling mingwood out of my guild."

"Wholesale to the Alliance is something you can expect to make a lot of money on."

I'm just dealing directly with the furniture maker, which in itself is some sort of problem-free act, but I wouldn't get the impression that it's very good.

We don't have a request to receive - we don't have exactly what we deserve, so we hardly receive a request, so instead of the highly-ranked adventurers in this town, we're pretty low on the point of contribution to the Alliance.

"Uh, but you sold a ton of Darls Bear meat, didn't you? in tonnes."

"Right. You're contributing to the sale of meat, aren't you, us?"

Indeed, it was only in the beginning that we went directly to the butcher to sell meat, and since then we have always passed the guild.

The only exception is the one used by Aela's shop, so can I say that she makes a lot of money?

The fact of the matter is that it is troublesome to go and sell large quantities of meat to various butchers, but that is also the role of the guild.

Exactly, it was too massive and snotty about Darls Bear's meat, but still I took it away without complaining, because of just what happened to Kerg?

"Right... well, ask Diola a little more about it, and if she's going to sell you a favor, I'll take it, okay?

To Hulka's suggestion, it was Natsuki who immediately nodded.

He wants to finish harvesting his home garden before diving into the dungeon.

You think you can miss out on picking it up after you get back from the dungeon just because it's growing fast?

Neither do we have any particular reason to disagree, and the conclusion was left to the negotiations between Hulka and Mr Diora.

◇ ◇ ◇

At the end of the day, we were supposed to work together on a meat buy-out campaign.

There are two reasons for this.

The first is that Diola asked me to "please help because it is of high rank".

I don't have to cooperate because it's not an obligation, but if you're going to increase your rank, you should cooperate at times like this.

It's not about the guild if you just get stronger, it's good to fight and train, but the power of the 'organization' called the Adventurer Guild is not insulting, and the high credibility of the 'rank' helps in various places.

No, if we're not involved in this world, in a way, the last line of life.

We should raise it as far as possible because we say that if we get to a high rank, our position will be stronger than that of a poor aristocrat. Because it's not necessarily that unreasonable nobility will not come out in the future.

Another reason was that they would be able to do a retrieval of drawings on demons in exchange for taking them on.

The drawings are used by the Adventurers Guild, and are quite expensive products such as 80 gold coins in a set of three books, which are not easy to buy in bookstores, but are coveted from us, since they cover the majority of the demons currently known.

He said it would take a lot of time to pick it up, but it would be more certain than we would go around looking for a bookstore.

Above all, I appreciate that the content is guaranteed.

That's why we promised about 10 days, and we're going to get the best out of the meat hunt.

However, there is nothing that can be done about the heat alone, so there has been a significant change in living time.

First, it's after midnight to wake up. It is too early to say morning around the so-called ugly three o'clock.

Until now, I have been training by breakfast since I woke up, but without doing so, I head into the woods, still in the dark.

Started hunting in the woods when the sky began to whiten slightly.

Normally, we have a hard time finding prey, but we have [enemies], and when it comes to me, Hulka, and Toya, we have a good night's eye.

Natsuki also has [dark vision], and even Yuki, who has the least favorable night's eye, has little problem because if it's dawn, he looks enough to not struggle with battle.

After continuing hunting until around 10 o'clock, he returned to town and sold his meat to the Adventurer's Guild.

Lightly farm, have lunch, and take a nap for a while.

Wake up around the evening when it gets a little cooler, ripen the training you couldn't do in the morning, have dinner after sweating in the bath, go to bed early, and prepare for the next day.

The purpose of the shift in time was to avoid the heat, but the battle in the dim was never such a waste, even because many get it, and the demons are weak.

By the way, it was me and Toya who became the mainstay of 'light farming' during this time.

It was the women who were enjoying and harvesting at first, but the large garden and the workforce beyond the average person we provide, as well as the home vegetable garden utilizing effective fertilizer, were a little out of the boundaries of the home "..." vegetable garden and a little ridiculous.

By the time "The Joy of Harvesting" had gone round and turned into a simple task, the women had left the harvesting operation, me and Toya had harvested, and the nuts had to share the processing into pickles, dishes and other tasks.

Honestly, unfamiliar farming put a little strain on my body, but that's also a bearable level if I think of it as a workout, and I can't help it more than we can cook.

The dishes the Hulkas make are something that goes into our mouths, and when they come out with big imos and stuff, it's fun, and as far as I'm concerned, I wasn't that dissapointed.... It was a little hot though.

And 10 days later.

Diola told me we had enough cooperation, and we left the meat buying campaign and resumed our dungeon offense with full force.
