Chapter 417 - Rivals’ War 1 (2/2)
But when they followed Red Oath, they must go through the forest and camping outside. They might not be able to get enough money because they must ignore the hunted prey. It’s no wonder that they look tattered now.
「Well, we will talk the rest at the inn…」
In the middle of the guild, talking loudly is a real problem.
That’s why everyone moved to Reni-chan’s inn…
* * *
「*Umu umu*, I’m impressed that you bring customers!
From now on, please keep up the good work!」(Reni-chan)
「Why did you say it like you are a boss?!」(Rena)
Rena complains to Reni-chan.
Well, Reni-chan doesn’t really mean it, but it’s a light joke.
Then Mile is appalling Rena…
「Eh, are you serious? Customers, please do your best?
(E, honkidesu yo? Kyakuhiki, ganbatte kudasai yo?)」(Reni)
(T.N: Yes, the raw is confused as well. Maybe Mile told that she will pay for Wonder Three and Reni asked: “for real”. Reni told Wonder Three “Please go your best” because Wonder Three looks tattered)
「I’m serious!!」(Mile?)
Reni-chan asked in surprise. As expected, Mile paid the rent.
Anyway, Marcella took a 3-people room and everyone went to the room together.
「Ye-es! If you told me so, that seems to be the case…」(Mile)
When they enter the room, Rena first talks about “Only Red Oath is able to stay clean during the trip…”. Marcella’s Trio was surprised but they were convinced with having Mile.
Even when Marcella’s Trio stayed at the inn, they only brought a pair of underwear to change, so if they walked a day, they would be covered in dust and sweaty.
A normal inn won’t have a bath, they just sell a basin of water for guest to wipe their body with a towel.
Still, Marcella’s Trio is all magician, they can create water as much as they want, and they are lolis, so they don’t have beards.
「That’s right! It wasn’t “like this” when I was in school!」(Marcella)
Marcella says that while blushing a little.
Apparently, she became “like this” during the trip, and she seemed to be embarrassed as Mile pointed out.
Yes, she used to take a bath once every three days at the school and she could use a water shower anytime.
…It’s necessary to spend money on workers who fetch water though.
It was quite difficult for the poor, a scholarship student like Oriana so she did it herself.
The well and the bathroom are very close together…
That’s why Mile (Adel) didn’t teach the Marcella’s Trio the cleanse magic. Both body-cleansing magic and clothes-cleansing magic…
She didn’t expect the three to become hunters and travel, so it can’t be helped.
「…Hey, who cares about that. Let’s “get down to business”, the purpose we came here.」(Marcella)
Yes, Marcella’s Trio had traveled to other countries for months.
Thinking that way, the four members of the “Red Oath” waited for Marcella’s words with a serious expression.
And then what Marcella was telling is…
「Adel-san, make a party with us and we’re off to the east right now!
It’s dangerous because it’s too close to the Brandel Kingdom!
And it’s okay for the 4 of us to keep traveling for 4 to 5 years… no, 7 to 8 years… no, 10 years are still okay because we are still 23 years old at that time…
Anyway, the four of us will enjoy the life! Until we returned to our country and got a political marriage.
This is our short “true life”…
Of course, you will come with me, Adel-san!」(Marcella)
「Adel!」(Monica)
「Adel-chan!」(Oriana)
「Of, of course, …」(Mile)
「「「You gotta be kidding me」」」(Rena’s Trio)
Even that warm-hearted Maevis had a blue vein on her forehead…
