Volume 3, Chapter 9: I Became an Adventurer, Part 1, Part 2

“This is the royal quarter…… isn’t it?”

Mizuki misunderstood as she got off the carriage in an unlively place, seeing the town of a different world for the first time as she was.

Well, from her speech alone, she sounds like a bumpkin.

The streets were lined with white buildings in the Mediterranean style.

Since it was close to the sea too, it really gave off that impression.

There were plenty of pale-skinned people walking about, but here and there were a few with darker skin tones and a few yellow-skinned ones.

Still, there was a slight sense of incongruity thanks to the colors of their hair and eyes, but this was a different world, after all.

We also got looks from the residents, who glanced and stared at the five girls.

Mostly the guys.

Rather worried about the gazes, Touka spoke up.

“…… Hey, Yuru-chan…Our outfits aren’t strange, right?”

And also, for some reason, I’m being called [Yuru] again here.

Am I going to end up becoming laid back again here? … Putting those thoughts out of my mind, I lightly smiled at Touka who was worrying about her clothes.

“Isn’t it alright? They’re looking because Touka is so cute.”

“Even if Yuru-chan says that……”

She certainly has the right figure, though I think the rest of us may be scary for those who aren’t used to seeing the external appearances of us [Demons].

Touka and Mizuki are rather cute.

Somewhat rounded faces, but since the rest of the residents were of mixed heritage with the otherworlders they had a somewhat delicate appearance.

Mizuki was older than I was and she’s a little taller and gave off the impression of a small animal, but her sense of style was pretty good, and I knew that the knights’ gazes were moving up and down every time she moved her body while training.

Touka was a little more intimidating, but her overall figure was great, so she had a certain beautiful atmosphere about her. I don’t know how far the culture of earth has penetrated, but someone in the castle saw her and muttered “Tsundere get!”

Although, right now, Touka was looking like a little kid in beginning adventurer’s clothes. Anyways, since we were dressed in the castle, it feels like we’re a bunch of rich kids going into the city.

Like usual, I look like a wealthy heiress, complete with a wide hat to hide my face.

“…If we’re able, would you guys like to change clothes?”

“Eh… then I couldn’t wear my sword.”

Nea is wearing her escort knight dress. Even though I say knight, she’s not wearing armor, but it still seems utilitarian.

Two servants with me make me uneasy, unsurprisingly.

Although Nea would follow common sense to an extent whenever she was separated from me, when close by, it suddenly disappears. It’s mostly harmless, but she’s the first to move.

On top of that, Tina is well known for overlooking things. If I don’t say something every time we pass by thugs eying us and I don’t notice, a few seconds later they’re always dead.

It may have been wrong to bring these two along for the trip.

The knights from the castle said they would escort us, but maybe it would have been better if we had politely refused. It would be better if there were less witnesses whenever we do something…

As such, I was forced to put up with this atmosphere, with everyone trying to win over Nea.
