Episode 26. What is this again?
“The whole continent is boiling over these days.”
“why?”
“Empires and kingdoms are all crazy.”
“Are you crazy?”
“They started fighting fiercely, saying they wanted to kill each other.”
“ah!”
“Hehe. Thanks to that, there is plenty of work to do, which is nice. “It’s a world where it’s easier to die while cutting a knife than to die from taxes.”
“you’re right. “Wouldn’t it be romantic to make money, have a drink, forget about the pain of life, and move on with your life?”
I became quite friendly with the mercenaries.
After confirming my skills, he spoke highly of me.
Since they are older men, I am in the same position.
“The people must be suffering.”
“The people? ha ha ha. To them, we are just money-making slaves.”
The situation is similar here and on Earth where I lived.
The behavior in this neighborhood is even worse, as if there is no even the bare minimum of human rights.
I miss where I used to live.
“Are you going to register as a mercenary?”
“Register as a mercenary?”
“or not… Do you want to become a knight?”
“Is it easy to become a knight?”
“If you have that level of spirit, the nobles will welcome you.”
“you’re right. “It’s not easy to find skilled people these days.”
“There are many mercenaries who have become knights.”
“is it so?”
“There are a lot of inspections these days. “It is better to obtain a clear identity.”
It is acquisition of new information.
While moving, I asked the mercenaries what I was curious about.
Each person provided useful information.
I thought I should go to the mercenary guild as soon as possible.
After registering as a mercenary, you can travel freely.
Another harvest is information about the baron lord of Daisen territory.
It was confirmed that the Daisen lord sided with the second prince.
They poured money into excessive military expansion, hiring wizards.
The story states that as the management of the fiefdom suffered from financial difficulties, taxes were raised to an extreme extent.
“The lord will reveal that as well.”
“If that’s the case… … .”
“That’s it. lol.”
Harry twitched his little finger.
In response to light questions, he explained the circumstances of the territory with enthusiasm and sincerity.
“But are you at intermediate level?”
“Maybe… … .”
“That’s amazing! I’m not that old, but I’m intermediate… … .”
“What’s so great about that?”
“It’s amazing. “Intermediate level is intermediate level, but once you reach advanced level, your life will change.”
“you’re right. If it’s the highest level… “It’s only a matter of time before you become a noble.”
Prosecutor is the second most popular occupation after wizard.
It is divided into beginner, intermediate, advanced, and top levels.
Next is Spirit Blade.
By my standards, those who could manifest the Sword Gang were called masters.
They were also divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced classes.
After obtaining the information I was curious about, my mind became lighter.
Thanks to the changed treatment, I was able to travel to Daisen territory in a comfortable atmosphere.
However, the discomfort of the carriage, which was very shaken and shaken, was still there.
“Jin, can you see it? “That castle over there is Daisen Castle.”
Roll said, pointing ahead.
He kept trying to raise his voice, so I declined.
He told me to take it easy.
In the distance, I saw a building that seemed to be a castle.
It was quite large.
A castle wall more than 10 meters high.
There were traces of some style here and there.
A busy street has been built around the castle, and although it is not a paved road, it is well maintained.
“Everyone stop.”
Arriving in front of the castle gate, the group was inspected.
I was in trouble because I only had a residence permit.
“you worked hard.”
The clever merchant, Roll, nudged the guard with some money.
A reward for saving his life from a pack of wolves.
“Nothing, right?”
“of course.”
“Pass.”
The soldier in charge of inspection shouted to the group to pass.
The original plan was to secretly climb over the castle walls and interview Baron Daisen.
However, the plan was changed when he became a mercenary for merchants.
“… … !”
As it was the center of the territory, many people came and went inside the castle gate.
A real city itself, definitely different from the small towns I’ve passed through.
Seeing the movie-like scene gave me a new feeling.
“Let’s rest here today. It will take about a day to sort things out, so you can rest too. “I already paid for the inn and food.”
A two-story inn with a ‘Peace of Siluim’ sign.
It seemed to be Roll’s favorite inn.
Roll said hello to the owner and then disappeared.
The inn was quiet.
Despite the old feel of the exterior, the environment was good.
“There are two double rooms, right?”
“A special room, please. I will pay for the room separately. “I would also like some warm bath water, please.”
“All right.”
It’s not outdoors, and sharing the same room as mercenaries is a no-no.
The mercenaries also seemed to have no complaints.
So I unpacked in my cell.
“The bed is fine.”
They said it was a special room and the bed was comfortable.
I relaxed my body and lay down.
I felt comfortable and my eyes gently closed.
“Sir, the bath water is ready.”
The staff informed us that water was ready.
A separate bath room.
The large container was filled with warm water.
I quickly took off my clothes and took a dip in the bathtub.
“This is healing… … .”
This is my first time taking a proper bath since I came to this neighborhood.
In the village of Eldor, people bathed in the valley.
It’s a shame compared to my past life where I used hot water every day.
Of course, this does not mean that my body has time.
A body that does not sweat has no odor.
But the habit didn’t go anywhere.
I enjoyed soaking in the bath for about 30 minutes.
Chrrrrrr.
I got up from the bath.
“Are your muscles stronger?”
187 cm tall and 75 kilograms.
A slim body with no flab thanks to physical training.
The body lines, which appear thin but are tightly fashioned with delicate muscles, are a work of art.
Even to me, it looks so perfect.
I was satisfied with myself and felt good.
“I have to do laundry too.”
The water in the bath is still clean.
I put on the clothes I was wearing and washed off the dust.
and.
Ssssssss,
I quickly dried the clothes I stirred using my inner energy.
Performance comparable to that of a dryer.
Crack.
“It’s so soft.”
I shook off my dry clothes and put them on my body.
Wow!!
I was hungry so I went down to the first floor.
The mercenaries do not wash and are addicted to alcohol.
“Have you washed everything? “I will shoot big today.”
Paco found me and called out.
The reward for saving my life.
“Take a drink.”
“What is it?”
“It’s beer.”
beer?
I haven’t tasted beer from this town yet.
Where I lived, I would drink a can of beer whenever I felt stuffy.
I held up a large wooden cup.
A large beer barrel to match.
Gurgling.
And filled with beer.
Bubbles rose up.
I took it lightly to my mouth.
Creamy beer foam.
And take a sip.
gulp.
huh? What is this again???
