Chapter 15: The Journey Begins Again (4)

*

The true nature is exposed......

"That's right...... You get out of here and follow us...... Nothing is wrong, right? ”

"What's the problem?"

"Yike...... It's just that you're not homesick or something......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I don't have a home anymore. ”

"Sorry...... I apologize if I said something wrong. ”

I seem to have heard her say that she was kicked out of the family, maybe she won't have any thoughts of going back......

"No...... Nothing ......."

After that, the atmosphere fell into a very awkward state, and I didn't know what to say, so I didn't say anything.

We remained silent until we reached the edge of the royal city, the Southern Province.

The Southern Province is located at the southernmost point of the royal city of Selivia and is the only way to enter the royal city.

According to the description on the map, the inhabitants here are very martial, and everything is based on strength. If someone like me comes, he must be the least statused......

And there's also the largest underground arena in the country, so it must be a bloody and violent place, but I'm a little curious......

"Miss Mio, have you been here before?"

"I came once, but not for long. How? Want to spend two days here? ”

"You can see that...... After all, it's a different world, and it's definitely impossible to say that you're not curious. ”

It's been seen......

"One day."

"Huh?"

"I'll only give you one day, and you can go wherever you want during that time."

"Really? Thank you so much! ”

Now that Vivien agrees, it's no further adoβ€”I'll go to the arena!"

"Wait! Why are you in such a hurry? ”

"Time is running out, eh......"

"At least wait until we find the hotel first."

"Hmm-oh...... All right...... But、That,I didn't ......"

I'm ashamed to say that I really don't have much gold on me, if I still have to stay in a hotel......

"I'll pay."

"It's so good......"

I'm not done yetβ€”

"But not yours."

Vivien immediately poured a basin of cold water on my head.

"How so?"

"If you get down on your knees and lick my shoes, and say please, Lord Vivien, I might think about it."

"......Shh Then my teammates will ask you. ”

If you don't give it, you won't give it...... I won't sell my dignity! It's a big deal to sleep on the streets tonight, and no one knows me here anyway, and there's no shame or disgrace.

"You're pretty stubborn, do you want me to lend you money?"

"Then I'd rather sleep on the streets."

Asking her to borrow money is tantamount to finding a debt for yourself that you will not pay off for a lifetime.

"Captain, there's the city gate ahead."

"Oh, thank you, Sophia, let us go."

"Roarβ€”"

As we descended one by one, Sophia returned to her human form.

And Vivien jumped on my back very consciously.

It's so heavy...... Tired......

Don't think about it, if we rode into the city on a dragon, we would definitely be stopped by the soldiers.

The gates of the city were heavily guarded, and soldiers with luxurious equipment could be seen standing guard and patrolling.

"Captain, when will we have such handsome equipment?"

"If only you could put it to a little use."

Our team, which is still in negative income, will have to wait at least a few months for this kind of equipment, and after a few months, it is a question of whether I can pay off my arrears.

"What do you mean? In the previous battles, I was obviously very active, right? ”

"Yes, yes, I hope you can directly defeat the Demon Beast next time."

"Humph! Warcraft in general...... No problem! ”

Then don't hesitate......

"Human! Isn't it time for me to suck my blood? ”

Sophia stopped me with a very weak look.

"Here?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I'm running out of mana, eh......"

"Bear with me a little longer...... You'll be sucked when you get to the hotel. ”

Letting her suck blood in such a dense crowd is a bit too conspicuous, and it would not be good if it caused a riot.

"Okay......"

Sophia honestly held back, which surprised me a little.

I thought she was going to mess with me.

"You guys wait a minute!"

Before we could reach the city gates, we were stopped by the soldiers.

Isn't that right...... After all, our faces look raw.

"What's the matter?"

I, as the leader, naturally walked in front of the soldiers.

"I've never seen any of you before...... What is the purpose of coming here? ”

The soldier's gaze kept sweeping over us, as if he felt that we might be dangerous.

"We are adventurers who escort Miss Mio to the royal capital for a beauty pageant."

"Adventurer? How many of you? ”

"Yes."

It seems that he doesn't think a few of us have that kind of strength.

"I'm Xiao Meixu, the daughter of the mayor of North El. They were the bodyguards I hired. ”

Vivien handed a card to the soldier.

"It turned out to be Miss Mio, forgive me for being rude, please pass!"

"Thank you very much."

"Let's go!"

Then no soldiers stopped us, and we passed through the gates with ease.

"Vivien, what did you just give him?"

"Are you talking about that?"

Vivien pulled the card out again.

"Hmm."

"This is something similar to an identity card issued by the Kingdom of Ulicia to every resident."

"Do I have it?"

"Don't you?"

"Nope."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Then you should pay more attention, if you are found to be a black household, it will be troublesome. ”

"Eh, what happens if you find out?"

"Up to ...... It's just locked up...... Can't die...... Probably. ”

"How did you have this thing?"

It seems that this thing is quite important......

"Your words...... It's best to go to my sister and ask for it, generally speaking, God will help you fake one. ”

Damn Yukona didn't tell me anything!

"Fake? It won't be a problem, right? ”

"Of course, don't underestimate God's methods."

"I see."

……

We came to the accommodation for tonight, which is a super luxurious hotel, and most of the people who can stay here are only nobles.

Vivien arranged the room with easeβ€”but it really didn't have mine!

Everyone had their own room, and she brutally kicked her out after I carried her to her room.

She also said that if I didn't ask her, I wouldn't have been able to enter the hotel tonight.

Hum! Big deal, I'll just sneak to Nana's room!

"No way!"

"Huh? Why, Nana? ”

I told Nana about it, and I thought she would promise me, but she just blasted me out of the room.
