"Hey, Tor is an adventurer, isn't he? Can I be, too?
It was Sora's bounced inquiry that greeted Tor first thing in the morning.
I seem to have fallen asleep just a little this morning because I was out of my mind to achieve my goal.
Waking up slightly later than usual, Tor immediately washed his face with pumped water and headed to the kitchen.
Then we arrive at a table lined with breakfast. No, the words flew in earlier.
"Morning, Sola. Good morning, landlord."
"Oh, whoa, whoa."
"Yes, good morning"
Apparently, Sora, who was awake earlier, had already cracked it down with her landlord, Yuryl.
As for the adventurer, I guess I heard more from her.
Rubbing his legs, Thor turns his thoughts around about the girl's questions.
Due to the character of the landlord, you should never have spoken of the adventurer as a dream profession.
In fact, it is an intense task to stretch out the woods, wilderness and caves and fight through vicious monsters with their lives.
I expected this to happen, but I don't really think it would be suitable for Sola with a slight personality.
Besides, the village where the Tors were born was basically peaceful, though the weak monsters would have appeared there.
Until I was attacked by that "big outbreak".
Sora, who first approached a vicious monster, should still have quite a bit of fear.
To confirm Sora's feelings, Thor sneaked a subtle glance into the eyes of the girl, who was diligently wearing bread.
There is no shade, and there is no appearance of more power than is necessary.
Thor, who has dated many newcomers, seemed to have a girl and a normal heart.
"How's it going?
"Me? Yeah, I'm totally fine."
"Right, I see. And you can't eat this bread without soaking it in soup."
"Ugg, I thought it was stiff with the noodles -"
Wheat was commonplace in the village to be eaten in porridge, but sunny hard bread was a regular food around here.
Thor also struggled not to swallow well at first.
Thor sets his mind on what Sora looks like struggling with unfamiliar teeth.
It would be quicker to actually let them experience it than to guide them through it.
With strong bread, you'd be convinced if it didn't fit your mouth.
"Yeah, yum! Could this round be meat?
"Oh, it's mole meat"
"That's right. Moles are delicious!
Thor has a soup of white chick beans and meat dumplings he's used to eating, but it seemed like a treat to Sola.
Thor's mouth was unknowingly loose on the appearance of a girl who was obsessed and flattered.
Maybe Sola will enjoy the tough bread and the adventurer a lot.
"Well, I just wanted to say if I'm going to register as an adventurer when I'm done..."
"Ho. Really?!"
"There's got to be something before that."
"What, are you there?
"That outfit is a lot of trouble."
Now Sola is wearing trousers in a piece that goes all the way down her knee knitted in wool.
It's pretty good for working outdoors, but I'm not comfortable confronting monsters.
You don't need to step forward if you have the most Sola skills, but you may not be able to register an adventurer without minimal protection.
Or selling equipment or inviting pre-courses is likely to take a long time.
If I could just buy him one molar leather accessory, I would do three pieces of silver even on Tor's coat.
There are five pieces of silver coins that I have been saving, so if I can't, I can buy them, but many others are useful.
Thor, slowly biting down and swallowing the bread, turned his gaze to the old woman, who slipped to the upper seat.
When she was younger, she heard she was a famous ice man who toured all over the place.
I know it's a thick wish, but if I can't fix it now, I'll cut it off.
"Excuse me, landlord. We'll have them all in place soon, so could you please put some protective equipment in place until then?
"Take mine? I haven't used it in a long time, but could it be good?
"That's here, because we can manage it"
"Yes. Then if this is such an old granny, please use it. Mr. Sola."
"Is that okay? Thank you."
I know if I'm going to do something about it, but I'm heartily surprised by Thor's statement that I can do it, Euril agreed with pleasure.
We've been dating for nearly a decade, and I'm well aware that Tor has extraordinary prudence and strong will.
In addition to that this morning, it also seemed full of confidence.
Euril refrained from saying any more, speculating as to whether it had anything to do with that revived girl.
For an elderly woman, the already adventurer's heartfelt life was over.
No matter how heartbreaking that was.
The flax cloth robes and white hard copper breastplate prepared by Euril after breakfast were slightly old in design but very good.
Nearly twenty pieces of silver when bought.
Even so, I just couldn't beat the passage of time, and the robe was pretty yellowish and rusty like mold on my chest.
Tor softly touched the goods when he stopped pushing the girl he had just tried to wear with great joy.
In an instant, the robe and the breastplate become brand new.
As it changed, Euril opened her eyes round, and Sora hugged Thor's arm with a full grin.
"Thanks Thor!
"What's that...?
"It's my skill. Sorry to surprise you."
Tor's < restore > is likely to be too big to hide because of the changes it gives.
That would save me the hassle of explaining it better if I revealed it to someone close to me and trustworthy.
is the judgment that
"Oh, my God! I thought it was heavier."
"How are you feeling about wearing it?
"I don't know if I'll grab some."
"Adjust that with a fastener. Look, here we go, here we go."
The chest is fixed with the shoulder and lateral bands, but the bands are so that the length can be changed by the holes that hook the fasteners.
Looking subtly, Sora had about two holes back.
Before restoring it, Thor casually recalls that the hole at the far end was indeed used in.
"... two turns, no"
"Am I that tall?
"No, it's not much different from when I was younger. Yeah, it's perfect like I put it on."
Sola, wearing a robe from the top of her chest, lets her circle crooked on the spot.
It looked better than I thought, and Tor scratched silently under his chin.
Tor, who was in good hands, urged Sora to hand him a spare backpack.
The look of a girl flipping a robe of bright white linen cloth and peeking a dazzling shiny breast through her collar is filled with adventurers inside.
Tor in dark brown leather armor was slightly disproportionate.
"Do you want me to follow you a little late because I'm walking ahead? I guess that's more noticeable."
"Hands, can I hold? Thor."
"Oh, you're a good friend. Yes, lunch, please."
"Stop it because it's hard to walk. Thank you for everything, landlord. Then I'll go."
"Good luck and I'll be adventurous."
"Yes, take care"
Eventually, the two of them, who left the boarding house side by side, headed to the city square.
It's past the middle of the morning, but there are quite a few people crossing the street.
Tor whispered as he rubbed his neck root to Sora, who looked around the area uncommonly many times.
"If you're not too keen, you'll catch a discount."
"So many people, I've never seen it before. Is today a festival? Oh, there's a lot of stalls over there!
"Calm down, the stalls are out every day. It's a pretty old border town, so it's got a lot of residents."
"Are you kidding?
Thor walks down and teaches the girl how this city is made up.
At the heart of this world is a giant cavity, the Great Coma Hole, from which the overflowing temper covers the land and creates numerous monsters.
They don't have any proper sightings of people, but the Tors were also scattered by the old people in the village when they were young.
Dirty land is called land, where monsters roam and people cannot live.
To reclaim that lost earth, a fortress base was created at the border between the land and the human survival zone - that is the border district.
"Heh, yeah."
"So there are a lot of adventurers."
"Oh, I see?
Monsters who show a strong predatory urge on creatures, but actually have a nasty habit.
When you sense a place where people and livestock are gathered in large numbers, they attack you without a herd.
For this reason, they used to build fortifications and garrison troops in the land, but they were feathers that retreated not far in front of the monsters that pushed them day and night.
There is another inconvenience with activities in large units, where points gained by defeating monsters are said to be dispersed in the head count of soldiers who participated in the battle.
This prevents me from developing my skills efficiently and I cannot expect to improve my fighting power.
"Uh, that's why I'm an adventurer"
"Yeah, because it's more advantageous to act in a few."
Thor is not familiar with the origin of the name Adventurer.
Perhaps after the Central National Army pulled up, the people who walked into the land alone called their deeds adventures.
Plants and minerals may develop abnormally in constantly harshly exposed areas.
Rugged monster skins, tendons, horns and fangs can also be very good material for weapons and protective equipment.
It was the merchants who laid eyes on it.
They make their fortune by hiring adventurers and buying out valuable grass and ore that made them hunt and collect monsters.
The closer the monster is to the big hole, the more strength and number it increases.
Conversely, as you move away from the center, the number of monsters decreases and becomes relatively safe.
Eventually, in a critical position that was not too far from the land and did not attract a group of vicious monsters, establishments of liquors and lodgings that were easy to trade with adventurers began to be built.
This is the running of Boundary Street today.
In this era, various monsters and skills are also studied, and commercial activities using land are increasingly flourishing.
And it's a natural flow, but there's no way the central government will miss this.
"Hmm, really?
"From above, it's a bunch of rich people with powerful private soldiers. If you leave me alone, the country won't take over."
Even so, I'm not talking about using force to embark on repression.
We adopted a policy of capturing the mechanisms built by adventurers and merchants.
First, a bureau of adventurers that binds adventurers shall be set up on a city-by-street basis and managed in bulk with courageous treatment.
Improve motivation and select competent personnel at the same time by making the salary not fixed but turnover system as well.
When you rank adventurers further, while increasing your competitiveness, you also increase your survival by limiting the areas you move forward.
Merchants also suppressed dissatisfaction first by excluding trade in materials leaving the land.
Then divide the treatment into meat, skins, ore, wood, etc., and let each create a dedicated trade union (guild).
We avoided a huge concentration of merchandise and profits in major chambers of commerce.
Thus began the exploration of the country's dominated land.
"This also involves demonic stones and underground labyrinths (dungeons), but I'll explain it again."
"I want to hear it now."
"Time's up. Look, we're here."
Stopped Tor squeezed his jaw into a large building that looked forward.
"You can go from here on your own. I have the money I need in my backpack, so use it. If you're grand, it'll be over soon."
"What, you won't accompany me?
"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on you at a distance you won't find out if you know me"
caring like a father with an adolescent daughter.
To Thor's words with his hands on his hips, Sola contemplates as he pokes his cheek with his index finger.
And suddenly I crouched to the ground.
"Oh, there he is. I'm so hungry, Tor. Um, I think it'll heal if you follow me to that building."
"That's cluttered, dude"
Knowing the effects of < restore >, Thor speaks frighteningly to Sola, who dares to choose pseudo-morbidity.
But it seems to be quite effective.
Passing gazes gather one after another at the appearance of a deliberate groaning beautiful girl.
"Okay. Then only this time will I be young. When you're about twenty-five, you'll be deceiving enough."
"There's nothing you can do to change that! Thor."
"Oh, yeah?
Thor scratches his jaw unexpectedly on Sora's sword screen, where he raises his voice with his knee in his arms.
After a while of silence, I revealed to the girl why I was pale and worried.
"I'm not well thought out of my surroundings. If we stick together, you're gonna have a nasty eye."
"Did you do something wrong?
"No, especially not. But an old man like me, still the lowest adventurer, is an embarrassment."
"It's weirder to be ashamed of what you've done for me."
With her lips pointed, the girl continues her words.
"People who make fun of Tor for that are people who don't know anything about it. Because whatever those people say, I don't give a shit!
"But you're such an old man, aren't you?
"Thor is an old man, but he's a cool old man, that's fine!
Speaking of which, Thor still remembered that Sora lost her father at an early age and that there were verses admiring older men.
"Have you had enough of the abdominal pain?
"Can you give me a hand? Thor."
To Tor with a bitter laugh, the girl comes with a cute voice as she sneers.
On the hand offered with a sigh, Sora softly overlaid her own hand.
Then I can put my strength into it.
While holding each other's hands, the two began walking to the Adventurers Bureau building.
