Chapter 24 Guild's Tavern
When we arrived in Ibro, it was raining heavily.
"Look at Hua Wuming, passers-by are looking at you with wide eyes."
The people of the city were naturally surprised to see us running the wagon in the heavy rain without getting wet.
Once we arrived at the village chief's residence, we used celestial magic to build a roof between the carriage and the entrance to the inn.
"This guy is surprised, Heavenly Attribute Magic can do such a thing?"
"Old man, your feet"
The road began to accumulate water, and I used my shield to pass through a plank about 10 centimeters thick.
Of course, the surface is made of non-slip material.
"How about Miguel, Hua Wuming is very useful."
"This kind of stuff doesn't do much except on a rainy day."
It seems that all three of them, except for Miguel, like my celestial magic.
Among them, Olivier gave me a sparkling look, but Miguel seemed to be jealous and troublesome, so I hope you can take it easy.
It seems that Olivier, the grandson of the village chief of the village of Kidai, will attend a school in Ibro starting in the spring.
"Although they said it was commuting, it would take half a day to get by carriage from Kidai Village, so they were going to the dormitory."
After hearing the story, Miguel said he wanted to participate too.
Transferring to another school is like having an academic aptitude test, and if you don't achieve a certain score, you will be admitted as a freshman instead of transferring to a second year.
"It's okay, Miguel will go to Ibro's school tomorrow to take the exam."
For Miguel, who wants to spend time with Olivier, it's even more convenient.
From the village chief's point of view, for whatever reason, living away from his parents' house, he probably thinks that Miguel's selfish character can be corrected.
For me, the departure of the annoying Miguel from the village was also a great joy.
These stories are about using the eavesdropping skill of celestial magic to listen to the stories inside the carriage.
Neither Mr. Zeor nor the four people in the carriage seemed to notice, and the sound quality was quite clear.
After that, if you can see the video, you won't complain, but even in the current situation, it's a very useful magic.
We will continue to work on miniaturization and high sensitivity.
In the inn, he behaves differently than the village chief.
"I can't be a guard if you don't stay with me, but this inn seems to have a skilled security guard."
"Hey, Hua Wuming. Hang out for a while. ”
"Where are you going?"
"It's a guild bar."
"I'll be with you"
Mr. Zeor declined the village chief's invitation to dinner and went to the guild's bar to gather information.
From the evening to the early hours of the evening, it is the time for adventurers who have completed their work to exchange information with each other.
Coming out of the hotel, we used a large umbrella to block out the rain and set up a foothold to match Zeor's walking pace.
Passers-by looked at us again with surprised expressions, but they seemed to think that Zeor had used magic, so they didn't dare to look at me.
"It's really useful magic, and with this, going out on a rainy day won't be a problem."
"For us cat owners, it's a hassle to blow dry our hair when it's wet."
"I see, it turns out that this is magic born out of necessity."
After following Mr. Zeor into the guild gate, it was filled with the smell of damp beasts.
"Even in the city, adventurers don't bring umbrellas."
Waterproof raincoats soaked in sap are often used in the village, but many people seem to be using leather cloaks.
The guild seemed to be filled with the smell of wet leather and wet orcs.
Even in the rain, the adventurers who had completed the mission seemed to be gathering, and low murmurs echoed.
Among the adventurers, there were some young people who looked like I was the same age, but when I raised my voice with some excitement, the veterans around me stared at me, and soon fell silent.
It seems that Ichiro's Adventurer's Guild is ruthless and not a carefree fantasy mode.
Before heading to the bar, Mr. Zeor turned to the bulletin board where the request was issued.
I also wanted to check it out when I came to sign up, but I was entangled by a Hera Deer adventurer, and after getting the guild card, I ran away.
Most of the people who become adventurers are very tall, so the place where the request is made is very high, and it is difficult for me, a cat lover, to see.
I used the steps to raise my gaze to the same height as Mr. Zeor.
"Oh, so are you doing scaffolding?"
"If you don't, you don't look good."
"Got it"
Many of the requests on the bulletin board are for crusade against monsters.
There are many farms around Ibro City, and there are requests to hunt monsters that prey on livestock almost every day.
It seems that it will cost about five silver coins to conquer goblins and kobolds, and even if it is an orc, a large silver coin or so is the market price.
In terms of Huaxia coins, a silver coin is about 1000 Huaxia coins, and a large silver coin is ten times as much, so it is cheaper than I thought.
"It doesn't seem like there's any benefit to crusading monsters."
"? < what is written here is only commission. If you sell materials, meat, and magic stones, you will receive this money. Goblins are only useful for magic stones, but kobolds have fur and fangs. If it's an orc, you can also sell meat, kill a black orc, and sell it as a whole, and you'll probably get five big gold coins. ”
"Gee, do you make that much money?"
"However, if you can't come back with a giant orc, you won't make any money."
"Ah, yes, you have to bring it to buy it, right?"
Even a great adventurer can't bring orcs out of the forests and mountains alone.
If the time is longer or the deblooding process is not good, the purchase price will drop accordingly.
In addition to crusading monsters, he also receives many requests to escort merchants and travelers.
The daily allowance here is five or six small silver coins, and other rewards such as success rewards, battle rewards, etc. are counted.
"The farther away the escort work, the higher the benefit. It's not uncommon for escort-based adventurers to do work for different clients on their way back and forth. I'm coming. "
"Hehe, that one seems to be more fun."
"Well, as long as there are no problems, not only monsters, but also thieves targeting merchants can attack. Fighting humans, risking your life, is a nerve-wracking job. "
"I see"
There's little guilt when fighting monsters, and there's a limit to how much your mind can play.
However, when dealing with humans, he has to deal with those who are equal to him or, in some cases, more cunning than him.
And, no matter how bad a person is, killing comes with guilt.
"It certainly doesn't look like an easy task."
After skimming through the pleas on the bulletin board, Mr. Zeor turned to the bar.
When you walk through the door, you will see the smell of smoke all over the floor, and it will be an adult space mixed with the smell of alcohol.
In stark contrast to the tense atmosphere before the reception, there was shouting and laughter.
On the floor, several beautiful sisters were handing out wine and food.
"Hua Wuming, even if you make a mistake, don't provoke women."
“? yes, what's the problem? ”
"The women in the tavern belong to everyone, so everyone who sets foot in them"
"Everybody's an enemy, you mean?"
"That's it"
"Because adventurers are rough men, I take sexual harassment for granted, but there seems to be some kind of sub-agreement."
"Is it like the unwritten rules of otaku in my previous life, or is it just a male judo club member?"
Instead of sitting at the table seat on the floor, Mr. Zeor sat at the counter seat.
"Give me beer, Hua Wuming, what about you?"
"Give me some milk"
He paused when I told him the order, and then there was a muffled laugh.
"Hey, did you hear that? Which kitten got lost? ”
"Isn't that the illegitimate son of the old man Tiger?"
"yes, even in this world, promises seem to work."
"It's worth raising your voice a little bit when you order."
"Hey, are you listening? This is a place for children, wow, it's so cold! ”
Once again, the canine adventurer who came up threw the ale from the top of my head, but I used celestial magic to create a rain ditch and send it back to my opponent's crotch.
"Grandpa, you licked me!"
"Hahahaha, you probably spilled beer before, what did you say in your sleep?"
"This..."
"And, I didn't do anything. Lick the front is this Hua Wuming. "
"What a kid!"
I don't think it's scary at all to face a canine adventurer who is much older than me, probably because I'm here to see Mr. Zeor.
"Imitation licking boo, hey, what is this?"
I deployed a shield in front of my dog trying to grab me.
The dog man, who slapped his face with all his might, stepped back in surprise, so he launched the next move.
"It hurts, it hurts, what, what, damn it, what's going on?"
I made something like a pointed stake out of the fragile air mass and deployed a few around the dog adventurer.
"It sticks when you move, but it breaks instantly." I was amazed at the pain, my body reacted, and another stake pierced me.
"Since the stake is transparent, it looks like a canine adventurer acting alone."
"Hahahaha, Rodas, what are you dancing?"
"What, are you already drunk?"
"Damn, this kid is really cheap!"
The canine adventurer pulled out a knife, and I immediately blinded him.
Sure, it's a spherical thumb that won't take away your vision, but it's a little more intense.
When the adventurer named Rodas threw his knife and crouched down, the bar fell silent.
Mr. Zeor quietly got up from his seat and kicked Rodas's dovetail, showing no signs of force.
Mr. Zeor grabbed the exhausted Rodas by the neck, dragged him to the door, and threw him out of the bar.
The people who drank with Rodas prepared celestial magic in order to retaliate.
'Hahaha'
"Oh, you're talking about Hua Wuming.
"Master, please let me give the child some milk!"
While I was dumbfounded by the unexpected developments, Mr. Zeor came back and patted me on the shoulder.
"Hua Wuming, for adventurers, skill is everything."
"Uh, not that guy Rod"
"People who are beaten in taverns are kicked out, do you know why?"
"Because that's what determines victory or defeat?"
"Halfway through, the loser will wrap his tail around and make it easier to go home."
"I see"
There's an unwritten rule in the bar: if you get kicked out, you lose; If you lose, you go home quietly.
"You're strong."
"Umiahah, yes."
Suddenly, there was a whisper from my left blind spot, and when I turned back in surprise, I saw a rich mountain range appear in front of me.
Before I knew it, I had already allowed the lion sister who worked at the bar to approach me.
"How many? The future looks promising"
"Uh, uh, I just turned eleven"
"Sister, do you want me to teach you something good?"
"Oh, if you put it too close, it's going to overflow, it's going to overflow."
"Let me see"
"Sorry, this guy is still pleading, so please do it again next time."
"Oh, I'm sorry!"
Sister Lion gently stroked my cheek and continued to work.
"The hair on my back is tingling."
"Beware, Hua Wuming. Suck it into the boneNo, it will bite you. ”
"Ahh
"Very disappointing, but I wonder if I'll be able to climb the adult stairs after a while."
After that, Mr. Zeor listened to the stories around me and told me various stories about adventurers.
