Vol 8 Chapter 121 (1/2)
The Departing Subjugatory Force
The preparations to depart over with, we gathered at Beiate Our scale was that of a few hundreds
It didn’t reach a thousand, but it was still a considerable number
(I heard the difficulty level was low, but…)
The largest individual party was Alette Baillet’s knights They had a bit over thirty fighters, and only around the same number of support
But perhaps they hadn’t had enough supporters to begin with, as a few of them were temporary hires
Aer ones had around six fighters, and ten support My party was not the smallest one
If you want to pick out the absolute shtly armored party led by that 【Albano】 the narrow eyed on all the same, they only had six in all
【Creit Benini】 who’d stirred up that duel anized by the books, and a greater number to support them
They had four wagons, and while their equipment was mismatched, they looked like an army on a march No, I participated in an army’s reater
Looking around, I saw so as well
“What, so you can just join in if you want to?”
When I thought that, the receptionist dispatched by the Guild walked up to this time’s commander- Alette-san
It was Tanya-san
I had finished checking over the goods packed into Porter, so I soe
We had coroup was somewhere around the center of theof women also stood out
A of opening shop once we arrive there?’ of so as he held up hie head indecently
It seeation in Beim
(I think I’)
The voices I heard were cut off by the surrounding noise, so it’s not like I could pick up everything But what I did catch was…
“Well then, those are all the regulars who’ll be participating this time”
“… That was a big help, Tanya”
“You don’t look so good Soht! The truth is, there’s a party I recoet back, can you tell me how they fared?”
“… I don’t really mind? What name should I look out for?”
“His party stands out, so you’ll pick the from over there, Lyle-kun’s party”
It does appear she noticed
And when Alette-san looked in my direction, her face turned pale I waved, and Tanya-san reciprocated the motion with a smile
Alette-san hung her head, and put her hands over it
Once the paperwork had finished, Tanya-san came over to me
Watching Alette-san escape into the crowd to intentionally disappear from my field of vision, I was overcome with some indescribably sentiment
(Right It’s hard because you reet where you’re co from, Alette-san)
From within the Jewel, the Third’s voices sounded like he was desperately holding back laughter
『Hey, Lyle… make sure you properly ask whether she carries those papers around regularily How about asking her outright if she’s found any takers yet!?』
(… The Third somehow feels the darkest here)
I offered s to Tanya-san who approached
“GoodSo you noticed me?”
“You do possess quite a conspicuous e, but a Porter, was it? I never thought you would be in possession of a model of the item so talked about of Arumsaas”
As everyone directed their glances at Porter, Monica stuck out her chest in pride
While doubting whether anyone was actually praising her, I continued talking to Tanya-san
“Coular members?”
“Eh? Oh, that? Right, you wouldn’t be knowledgeable about soation, so perhaps it would be best to fao”
What Tanya-san explained…
Apart from the Parties specifically selected to join, those Parties could hire other ones or soloes as temporary assistance
For those that scraped by with the bare minimum numbers, it was common to hire some more adventurers for added support
Of course, there were other cases around, and it was no good unless you could trust the te
But even if we knew that fact beforehand, it would be quite difficult for us to hire anyone in only a week’s timespan
“Besides adventurers, there are eneral direction will acco troupes See, just look over there”
Looking closely, I saw a gathering of elves confir their instruments
They were quite a distance away, so I hadn’t noticed
(They have weapons as well, so I thought they were Adventurers)
I observed around, and saw so several cart’s-worth ofaround from them
So a them, some would open up shops, and cater to the adventurers
Other than that, there were so adventurers who’d likely pleaded with another party to take the
“It’s a li, and a small town forms around it for a period of ti, the teuard duties after all The regular ot”
“But the temps aren’t permitted to enter it?”
Tanya-san spoke with a wry smile
“I’m not sure if a receptionist such as myself should be the one to say it, but I’ve no idea what’s happening where I’ along, but I myself will return to the East Branch once I’ve confiro on your own”
As I accepted that it was just so like that, Tanya-san went on
“Noret connections with competent people And remember, your party is a competent one”
“… Just now, you told Alette-san, that you’re the one that recommended us”
When I said that, she nodded
“Yes, so make sure you don’t betray my expectations”
She said that with a s off to confirm the members of the other parties

… The group that departed arrived at their destination with Alette’s Party at the head
Miranda began to understand theof Tanya’s words as she walked around the base
(It truly is a small town here I can’t believe it)
At the start, it was just a group of under a thousand, but given the tiather, and its population easily crossed that line
After a while of , those with separate destinations separated off
And in the end, the number to reach their destination point after six days of travel was just around six hundred
The difficulty level wasn’t high But with a scale surpassing ten floors, and a boss every floor, it was thought it would take quite some time
The parties actively doing the clearing contained around one hundred and fifty members
A force carrying around nuy that the usual subjugatory forces of knights and soldiers
After arriving, the guild personnel ian to confirm that everyone was present
And the an to build the base
They leveled the earth, built up walls, and formed the roads
