Chapter 13 (1/2)
Chapter 13 – Level 22 ~ Feudal Lord (Simile)
「Callus, are you going house-hunting?」 (Callus’ Mom)
Morning, right when I was about to leave the house and proceed to the old
「House-hunting?」 (Callus)
「What are you so surprised about? Isn’t it custo to stay at home?」 (Callus’ Mom)
「Was there such a thing?!」 (Callus)
I was surprised
「The priest said nothing about it」 (Callus)
「It doesn’t matter even if the priest did not say so since it’s natural after all」 (Callus’ Mom)
My mother was momentarily shocked
Since you were an adult, you should be independent
It was understandable, but I was a little surprised since I didn’t know anything about it
At the old man’s house, just before class starts
I was talking about being independent with Claire and Charlotte
「I’ alone A day before the adult ceremony Sparta[1]-like, I was told, 『Do it all by yourself』, the previous day」 (Claire)
Come to think about it, when I first came to her house, she was the only one there
「Me, too, senpai! Because I wanted to train in this place, I just got a tent and left the castle」[2](Charlotte)
That tent, was it any different?
Or rather……
「I’ with his family……?」 (Callus)
「It seems to be that way」 (Claire)
I’m somewhat embarrassed
「What if senpai lives in a tent, too? With it, you can live anywhere!」[3] (Charlotte)
「Living in a tent is kinda……」 (Callus)
Because I can’t live in a tent, I want to iht away
The Dragon leveled up to Level 15 after the class ended, and I proceeded to the Guild in Gordon
I wanted to rent a place, I heard a lot stories froe Chief, but apparently I still have to earn money first
All I have now, is the 10,000 Bonds I got from the previous caravan escort job
It was not enough for me to rent a place
So I came to the Guild to look for a job
「Welcome」 (Anette)
The usual receptionist, Anette (アネット), was there
I approached her and went straight to the point
「Are there any jobs? I need a fast-paying one」 (Callus)
「Fast-paying job?」 (Anette)
「Yes, I need a bit of ht now」 (Callus)
「Let’s see……ah, there was exactly one for a party」 (Anette)
Anette said so, and took out a piece of paper
「Do you know the castle called Daiseeji[4] (ダイセージ) not far away from here?」 (Anette)
「Daiseeji (ダイセージ)? Old castle? Is that the one occupied by bandits?」 (Callus)
「Yes, it’s good that know it……wait, it was occupied?」 (Anette)
「It was」 (Callus)
「Why the past tense?」 (Anette)
「We cae yesterday, and ere attacked by men with pompadour-like hairstyles, so ent and annihilated them」 (Callus)
「……eeehhh」 (Anette)
Anette was greatly surprised She was surprised to the point that she almost toppled over
「Wait, is that the truth?」 (Anette)
「Ah」 (Callus)
I used the Dragon Skill Wrath II, and I raed, so they were all burned cleanly
Most of the building was burned out, the only remains were the moat and the wall, and maybe the castle where the lord lived
「You’re joking, aren’t you」 (Anette)
「I’o and check it out There’s no one there anymore, so it’s a safe zone」 (Callus)
「It’s a lie……even if you they’re bandits, they were the collapsed Anton Mercenary Group, you know? That sort of thing……」 (Anette)
「Hee, so they were former mercenaries」 (Callus)
「Wait, I’ll confirm it now」 (Anette)
「Ah」 (Callus)
I waited a bit inside the Guild
About half an hour later, a man sent by Anette to confirm it came back
The report was almost the same as what I said
Anette was even more surprised, but she believed me
「So it was really true」 (Anette)
「You really didn’t have to send someone over to confirm it」 (Callus)
「Still……it’s really hard to say if it was the truth」 (Anette)
