Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.

Thirteen in a five-person room, narrow in a boulder... maybe we should change places...

Lenya and Eagle Crow sat on the bed alone, and I, Hulina, who came in later, stood behind me in a chair, and Nil, who was careless.

When it comes to business, it would be better to stay away from others, so I made it into an inn room... but it made me feel very difficult to breathe... well, it wouldn't be a long story, okay!

"Let's start with introductions."

"You guys are Eagle Crow.

And these five are the five new adventurers who expect Eagle Crowe to take care of recently? "

"What?! You know about Lenya and not just us?!"

"If you don't know the rumors of the city, you can't call yourself a merchant."

"This... is a really good person."

"No, that's not true. I'm still here.

And before that, let's start with introducing ourselves.

My name is Hulina. "

Eagle Crowe and Lenya introduce themselves again so that they can return it, and finish the meeting first.

"Now that you know each other, let's get down to business."

"Yes."

"Start with me.

I need something for Hulina. "

"If there's anything I can do, I'll do it."

"I put it on the list yesterday."

I'll give Mr Hulina a list of things I can think of.

"... is this mountain climbing gear?"

"No, I was thinking of going under a crack in the back of the Gegandal Plain."

"I heard it was an incredibly big crack... so I need a rope this far."

"That's right, but I'm pretty much an amateur.I don't know what I need.

I was wondering if Hulina could come up with something. "

"That's right... if you're equipped to climb a mountain, I've seen it a few times, so I know it's the first time I've seen it go down a crack, so I don't know if my knowledge is useful, but I'll try to find additional items that might be needed."

"Thank you."

"No, I can't name an exclusive merchant without this much."

"... actually, I was just talking about..."

I look at Donnate waiting for the end of the story.

"Hulina, we Eagle Crow want to go under the crack with Sinya, but we're barely equipped for climbing.Could you get us something?... but what do you think? "

"That's right... you're adding five people.

It is possible to have all the equipment... but I think it will take two days to give you all the equipment.Are you sure? "

Hulina writes something on the list and answers it.Here's an example.He seems to be using it well.

Looking at this kind of place makes me happy...

"Can you prepare it in two days?!"

Petro is shocked faster than expected.

There is no demand for climbing goods in this world because there is a strong image that there is some other goal and there is no choice...

Just preparing the list I gave you will take quite some time.Some of them are likely to be made to order, and if you try to arrange them yourself, it will take a week if you suck.

You should be surprised because you're going to prepare it in just two days.

And it's even more surprising because, in Mr. Hulina's case, we really have it.

"There are no special items that are difficult to prepare, so I wonder if it would be possible with that much time.If you have to get it from another city, it won't be possible in two days, but if there's anything on the list and I'm going to prepare it, it's all in this city. "

"I told you. Hulina is excellent."

"You're really good at it..."

"Even if you praise me so much, I'll pay you well, right?"

"Hahaha. You're a handsome merchant with boulders.It's okay, I'll pay for it. "

"Thank you and I'm glad you're going to like it."

Hulina laughs innocently.I also make sure to make connections.

"So... what are Lenya-sama's requirements...?"

"We have some things that we'd like you to prepare.I don't mind clearing up Sinya and the others. "

Lenya asks Hulina for something she needs as an adventurer.

"... this will be easy to prepare, so in two days, I will give you the equipment at the same time when I give it to Shinya and the others."

Eh?!

Petro is once again shocked by Hulina's words.

"Hmm, are you sure you can prepare...?"

"Yes, I'm fine. I will definitely prepare it."

"Ahh... that's amazing..."

Petro looks at Hulina with the eyes of an alien.

Hulina lowers her head when she looks at me.

The items Lenya ordered were all easily available in those stores, even if she didn't bother asking Hülina.

Even ordinary merchants would have realized that the request was to make a connection.Of course, Hulina noticed and bowed her head to me, who set up a place to make connections.

"I'm sorry for Hulina, but honestly, I thought all the people who are called merchants are the money keepers.Nobody changes that much.

But there are others who don't. "

"Huh? Why would that happen?"

Petro, who couldn't read Promerte's thoughts, asks honestly.

"If you look at Sinya's list, you'll see.

From what I've seen, there's nothing particularly expensive, and to be clear, I don't think Hülina will make that much money.

And yet, he said he'd take on the extra five and have it ready in two days.

To a certain extent, it is a business to fulfill the customer's request, but I was surprised that some people were not, because I thought it was the merchant who didn't see the profit after the amount. "

"I don't know. And after a couple of days, I'll be pretty busy even after Lenya and the others asked me to."

"Fufufu, merchants make money at work, so I'm not mistaken about being a money keeper, but not everyone sees money alone.

As my merchant mentor, from my Guild Master... don't forget that merchants do business with people, not with gold.That's what they used to say.

When I am a merchant, I often feel sad about the meaning of the word.

If you're only following numbers with your eyes, you're bound to see painful eyes somewhere.

Because business is between people.I also couldn't communicate well with the other person, and I saw painful eyes several times. "

Hulina?

"Now, thanks to Sinya, I have more laughter, but originally, I was much less expressive and more familiar.

Even if the deal itself can be made, it can make the other person nervous for a long time, or it can only be an administrative conversation.... "

"Eh?! You don't look like that at all?!"

"Thank you. If you say so, I'm confident that I've changed myself."

"It was more than Sinya recommended.Thank you very much for your continued support. "

"Yes, thank you very much."

That's how Hulina's hair shook.

"So, the story is wrapped up, and as soon as the equipment is ready, let's go to the ground crack."

Got it.

Until the equipment was ready, it could not move, so the day was disbanded and Lenya and the five Eagle Crows headed to the Alliance.You will receive the next quest.

We were going to study mold balls as it was originally planned, but because Hulina wanted to move immediately, we decided to put it on hold because she was heading to the Commercial Alliance.

Me and Nil can do it alone, but we've done it so far, and Hulina will want to see it done.

For the first time in a long time, I decided to spend the day at the inn and the next morning.

"Good morning!"

"Is that it? Did you come here today?"

"Is that bad...?"

Hulina showed up with a cheerful greeting.

"No, that's not true, but I wonder if the equipment is ready..."

"There's nothing I can do so far, just wait, it's okay!"

It is said as a matter of course, but I think it is usually abnormal.

I don't know why Hulina lied, and I don't know if it's true... but I wonder how we can create a half-day respite under those conditions...

"It was about time I stopped at the shape, so I was worried about it..."

"No, it's fine if it's okay.

It's about time we finished the form, and we'll finish it today. "

Yes!

Thus, in the morning, Hulina and I made an example mold and got a new item, a strong acid ball.

Well done!

"Oh, that's perfect."

Gotcha!

Hulina is delighted as she jumps on the spot.

Nil was a little surprised, but he immediately rejoiced with Hulina.

"It's been a lot harder than I thought, but the happiness is doubling!"

"It must be hard to buy or sell this... but is it good enough that it won't cost you money?"

"That's what I wanted!And I was able to see the moment the new item was created, so I'm sure it was always a valuable experience! "

Good for you.

"Ah! It's time! I'm going back to the merchant job!"

"Is lunch good?"

"That's an attractive invitation, but I won't let you do it today!"

"Please, come... don't be so reckless."

"I'm not going into this mess!See you later! "

Hulina ran away in a hurry.

More alive than innocent...?

So the next morning, when Hulina had all the items, they all went to the Commercial Guild.

"Wow... I can't believe we're getting seven people ready..."

"Haheh... I can't believe that Shinya-san... hates making such a person an exclusive merchant!"

"Don't say that with a full smile. Petro."

I'm gonna cry, Cora.

Was that all right?

A set of equipment lined up in the guild's private room.They also lined up what Lenya and the others had asked for.

Of course everything is brand new, no scratches.

"I don't think there's anyone who can do this."

"It's too perfect to be scared.

You're not gonna charge us enough to go bankrupt, are you? "

"I won't do that.It's the right price. "

We checked every piece of equipment we had, but we didn't have a clue, and we gave us more answers than we wanted.

"Thank you so much."

"No."

Well then, Lenya and the others are going to do something else from here, okay?

"I understand the Alliance and the quest, and I will do what we can."

S rank quests are too dangerous for Kohar.It's a little different to just take Lenya and this is a client that has nothing to do with them in the first place.

It is better for the leniens to act differently.

Lenya and the others understand that and say they'll do what they can.

Hulina didn't want to see me, but me, Nil, and the five Eagle Crows, equipped, headed for the Gegandar Plains.

"How far did Eagle Crow go to crush Beta?"

"When they tried to stop me, I was still outside the crack."

"Outside?"

"The escaped Beta stopped just after she passed through the city and came to this Gegandar plain."

"Were you standing on this plain?What a terrible situation...? "

"Yeah, so we tried a few times to stop it right away, but I couldn't stand my teeth.

Then I came with Grandma Arten to stop it, and after a big fight, I understood that I couldn't defeat it, so I managed to drop it down here. "

"After that, they asked me to do something, but we couldn't stop him.It means that it was left behind.

In other words, we've never been in a crack. "

"I see..."

Well, I'm the one who can't be defeated by an S-ranked adventurer!I would say it was just good that there was no idiot poking into it.

"Has anyone investigated this crack?"

"Looks like some of them got in at first, but they've been gone since the dead left."

A monster?

"No, it's slippery."

Looking at it from above, it's a terribly deep hole.Those who slipped would never come out on the surface again.

Getting into such a place... makes me want to tremble.

"Well... it's good to go down, but I don't know when I'll be back.Are you ready? "

"I'm ready! Let's go, let's go!"

Always a cheerful petro call.The dark air became a little brighter.

Tie a rope to a rock made of earth magic and throw each into a crack.

"Just go down slowly, so be careful not to be rude.

There will be monsters, and worst of all, I'm thinking about going back up. "

"Monsters like this lurk in the dark, and if we don't be careful, we could all perish."

We can't detect it, but it could unilaterally detect us in the dark...

Everyone gets caught in the rope and slowly descends through the cracked wall.

As you descend a few meters down the wall, the sun's light quickly disappears, and the material of the wall changes from soft to hard.

"It could be much deeper than I thought."

When Nil utters the word, it reverberates in the ground crack and goes away.

"From the sound of the sound, it looks like it's still far below."

"Let's go down without much noise.The echo of the voice may bring the monsters closer. "

I am worried that the monster will find me, but I will light the lantern and secure my sight.I'm scared if I don't know what's going on down there or on the wall.

However, when I light a fire, it lights up, and suddenly a horrible monster comes in from outside the reach of light... what an imagination that works, that makes me scared.Imagination is bitter at times like these.

Walls remain perpendicular, down or down, and nothing special is visible.

After all, because everyone is lighting lanterns, we can recognize each other, but we can't see anything else, and we can't see the walls that should be on the other side.

All you can hear is the sound of surf and rope descending.

"... wait a minute!"

As Petro walks down the wall for a few dozen meters, Petro speaks out to stop everyone from advancing.

You said there was no noise, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear.Even if Petro raised his voice and tried to stop the process, he probably felt that it could be a bad situation.

"There's something down there. If we keep going, we'll probably bump into each other."

"A creature?"

"Yeah, that's a lot."

"I think we should build a scaffold once."

"I'll do it."

As Tana grabbed the rope and drew a magical formation with one hand, it glowed brown and a rock scaffold emerged from the wall.

It's big enough for everyone to ride.

Everyone gets on that scaffold and calms down once.

"Petro, where are you?"

"I don't see it, but I think it's stuck right down the wall."

Petro is a rabbit, and he has a good ear.They're picking up sounds we can't pick up.

"Is it impossible to avoid going through it?"

"Probably not. I can hear sounds from quite a wide area."

"Do you know what it is?"

"Wait a minute....."

That's how Petro shook his ears twitching with his head out of the scaffold.

"Maybe it's Cave Bat."

Cave Bat is a C-ranked monster and a big bat.

Bright black, short body hair, bright red eyes, pointed ears.

It is about one meter long and is a monster that uses dark magic and has the habit of swarming.

In C rank, the unit is not so strong, but it is quite a militant monster. If you go down from here, it will definitely be a fight monster.

"What do we do? If we try to force ourselves through, we'll see a lot of them coming."

"That's why, if you wake him up, he'll attack you all at once."

"I don't think I can handle anything normally, but in this darkness, it's pretty tough."

"I see. Is that why Hulina prepared this item?"

I take out a round pottery like a ping-pong ball from my waist bag.

The pottery is hollow inside, with some holes and a small green magic stone formation inside.

"It was a loud magic instrument, wasn't it?"

"Oh, it seems that if you put magic into it, the wind will blow from inside and make a sound."

Just like whistling, it's the sound of the wind passing through the hole.

"If you put magic into this and throw it somewhere different, will Cave Bats catch you?"

"Ah, that's right. Certainly, if not all of them, we may be able to attract a significant number of Cave Bats."
