Chapter 305 (1/2)
The Town of Mikhan (1)
After a trip filled with various things happening, we finally made it to the next town: Mikhan
It wasn’t to the point of Tsuia’s, but it did have a relatively big wall surrounding the town
It also appeared to be surrounded by pastures filled with shepherds and their sheep
“It was so long… I thought I’d fall asleep in the coach… but it was unexpectedly busy, eh”
“There were a good nu a few thieves too, but I guess there weren’t any up for a fight ”
Setting aside the monsters that would naturally want to attack us, there weren’t h to attack a coach with an aristocratic crest on it
Ienemies of an entire faured we’d at least be able to lure at least souards”
“You wanted thereat Whether you kill theet money from them”
Wataru’s been tainted by this world down to his depths, huh… There’s no way he’d be able to make it in japan anymore
By the e’d camped out on the way here, but like… wouldn’t there nor? Like an inn town
Gozoh answered when he voiced his question
“An inn town? Yeah there’s a few of ’ereat security They’d get gobbled up if not”
“… Wasn’t there a village near Tsuia?”
“The area around Tsuia’s already opened for development In a sense, it’s like the frontier Besides, with an inn town so near like that there’s less escort requests and more adventurers”
… So that’s hoas?
I couldn’t get any good sleep since we camped out and slept in shi+fts, so that topic’s a sore spot in travelling for me Yep… wait, huh? Come to think of it, I hired Wataru to do it… I could’ve just left it all to hiood at sharing stories during that, so let’s call it even Like hohile there eeds for the horses to eat at that point, there was a rivalry bethether it was best to use [Call Fodder] or [Grow Weed] to feed your horses when there weren’t, or like how you’d call even non-horses horses if they pull your coach Really, they were just a ton of inconsequential stories
“Heeey, c’mon, let’s hurry up and head into town I wanna eat~”
“Don’t go’n bother Keho nice and quick if we use the aristocrat-only entrance… Right, Roppu and I should be officially B-Ranks soon, so we can do that stuff soon too”
“Ah, but the aristocrat’s gate toll is expensive Setting aside this time, ordinary coate nor able toa Ventulier You could even leave in the ry, so we decided to hurry up and enter through the aristocrat’s gate
The inspection ithout a hitch and ere able to enter the town as smoothly as Maidence said ould
Compared to Tsuia, Mikhan felt a lot e
The outer walls and buildings theuess it was the spacing between everything?
Wait, isn’t this all even closer together than the capital?—Noticing that along with the population density s here?
“Most of the area is needed for livestock, so there’s relatively less people Tsuia has more in terms of population, yeah? Also, at the time this toas founded, parchment was a popular export and there aypaper of its own, most of the artisans moved to other towns… Nowadays, the de restoration ic on the parchment and not even produce it”
I see So that’s why there’s a huge plot of land here with so little people?
“Guess we should be headin’ to the adventurer guild first Coachie roll stand! One of Mikhan’s staples…!”
“Veggie roll? What’s that?”
“It’s where ya lightly cook sorilled laood Like a spring roll, no, etable crepe? No, wait, I’ve heard of a type of shi+sh kebab like that… I wonder if it’s another trace frory, too Let’s get some, Keho too Leave the shopping to me”
“I’d like to try some of the lamb skewers”
“Oh yeeeah, Meat-senpai’s the type that loves etables too?”
“… Yeah, we can, but later After we go to the guild though We could get into hassles if we do all that in a coach with this crest on it”
Besides, I wanted to hurry up and get to an inn After ca out for four days with the women in the coach and men outside in a tent… well, I want to sleep in a room
