A few days later, Masaru came to greet the King of Axiom to report that he was leaving the capital.

”You're leaving? I will miss you... I will miss you.

”What a fool you are... for running away from a bargaining table!

”Well, if it saved you from haggling more than you had to, then you won. If you have the right person, send them to me, this is a special power you don't have.

At the end, he gave me a little advice. It's true that it's more difficult to train people who can do everything than to do everything by yourself, and it made me think that the road is still to be traveled.

So, you can send people to me for magic and other technological exchange, but don't make me educate you about prejudice against beasts and other trivial things. I also recommend Zarg as your guard. His family will be living here, and he's a hard man to beat. I think it would be fun to give him a raise and make him a specialist in transportation. I'll give you a crash course when you get here. ”Huh.

”Oh, someone who can't be broken even if you beat him... such people are hard to come by... okay, I'll let you do a few things in person. Have a safe trip. Good.

I'm glad to hear you're getting a fun job directly from the king! In a way, you're getting a big promotion!

Thank you! Thank you! Now let's have a drink and not talk about all that work! Let's have a drink, and invite the Victinias!

Stop it! You don't call the gods for that!

And so they departed from King's Landing.

The group's luggage consisted only of animals resting in the back of the truck. The rest of their belongings were placed in the item boxes, and those who were too weak to walk rode in the carts and carts pulled by donkeys.

Let me tell you about the increase in the number of people. There are four people and two elves who are retired adventurers and wish to settle here.

Most of the humans quit adventuring in their late thirties, and those who work behind the scenes or make a lot of money retire to the countryside.

They have no prejudice against other races, and have been adventuring together with two elves, a man and a woman, since they were young. When the two elves retired, they were invited by a fellow adventurer to come along with him because they heard that an unusual town was going to be built.

It's not as easy as it sounds, sir! You don't have to carry anything, you don't have to worry about food, and there are craftsmen around to help you clean your weapons. You'll be fine.

”Don't get carried away, you'll get hurt. You've always been restless... You're old enough to know better. You're getting old.

The exchange between the adventurer leader and the elven woman was met with a blank stare from everyone, as if to say, ”Here we go again.

I'm sure you've heard of them. What kind of bow do you use?

The one who interrupted me was Wayne, who was one of the best archers in the cavalry, and I remember that he looked like he wanted a bow and arrow when he made one for the beastman.

He said, ”I use wood from Trent and strings from worms. It's a little strong and peculiar, but it's a good bow and hard to break. It's a good bow.

”Aren't torrent and worm bows and arrows the same as the bows Masaru's brother makes? Isn't that right?

Since when am I your brother? Wayne brought up the subject of migration and said, ”Dina is coming with us, how about it? And then he started calling Masaru ”brother”. ...really depressing.

”Yeah, I'm using torrent wood and worm strings. Worm strings.

”Can I see them? Do you have any right now?

Whoa. You got a bite? I'm afraid I'm not elf-skiing. It's beautiful to look at, but...

I've got an unusual compound bow for me if you want to see it. If you want to look at it, you can. It's a compound bow made of mithril and torrent, and the string is made of braided worm to increase the tension, but it's too strong to be versatile. It's a shame.

When I handed him the bow from the item box, Wayne and even the male elf approached and touched it with great interest.

It's a shame it's not more versatile.

”Oh, no problem. We have special arrows, but why don't you try a regular one first?

You look serious and pull the string... pull... pull? Oh, I stopped.

”......... What kind of bow is that? What kind of bow is that? Are you trying to make a spear fly? I can't do that. I can't do it.

Okay, next stop, Oreth! Me! I want to do it too!

I'm next. .... I want to be next.

Now that Wayne and the male elf were on board, even the other adventurers came out to try and draw their bows! If you can pull it, you're a monster! I'm sure you'll agree. In the end, no one could draw the bow properly, and it was returned.

”Can you really draw like this? You should try it!
