A Human Town for the First Ti
“Rember Rokuko, just five goblins when adventurers co. No more than that. You can eat up to two lon rolls from the [Sweet Roll Assortnt] per day.
“G-got it. Kehma, you be careful too okay?”
And, like that, we left with Rokuko cave-sitting.
…
Now that I think of it, this is the first ti I’ll be leaving the master room. When Tester stopped moving for one reason or another while digging I had at go retrieve it.
… I wonder if this world doesn’t have chemicals harmful to humans in it?
Maybe things like mana and magical power are harmful to human health…
“… You’re not going?”
“Y-yeah. We’re going. We’re going now, so…”
“Let’s hurry up and go!”
“I’m not pushing you know? Definitely not pushing you, you know?”
“Eh? Pushing? I got it—”
Hold up, the translation function!? Wooah-!
… Pushed on the back by Rokuko, I left the master room.
Entering the dungeon proper without incident, we appeared in the core room.
“… A-alright, nothing wrong happened right? Phew, scared the crap out of … wait, co to think of it, can’t I use magic and stuff now? Yep.”
“Goshujin-sama, are you alright?”
“Ah, yeah, you? I’m all good.”
“Then let’s hurry up and go… why are you still standing at the entrance?”
No, now that I’m thinking about it, isn’t it bad if the dungeon master leaves from the dungeon after all?
I should think about this so more…
“Ei-”
“What’s with the push!? You’re pushing !?
“Eh, yes, I’m pushing you.”
“Why!? Is Translation Function-san overloaded and not working!? Ah-”
My first ti(walking)… against my will…—!
…
Yep, nothing happened. Nothing happened as expected.
After I took a serious step, at tugged on my clothes.
“Goshujin-sama?”
“A-ah, sorry. Well then, let’s go!”
Just one step towards the forest…
“… Should I push you?”
“Ah, yeah. Please…”

Oh co on, what about the safety zone… though I didn’t say that, wouldn’t I be putting my life in danger by going outside? I followed at down the mountain road while grumbling about that.
If I had to say why we were going outside, the reason would be for safety. You can’t determine if you’re safe without information, the peace right now might just be temporary so I’m descending to the human village.
Ahh, I don’t want to work.
Of course, thanks to the clothes golem, I, who doesn’t exercise at all, can easily run down the mountain path. It’ll properly run after being told [Run to the Sia Township] after all.
However, though I’m just being moved, we had to take several breaks on the way since I got crazy tired… how is at alright… wonder how much muscle pain I’ll have tomorrow.
Even bringing things like water and food in after considering that we may not arrive in a day, I had at carry them after the first break. Rather, she wanted to carry it since that’s work for slaves and I didn’t refuse. Even though at could still actually run while carrying the luggage, I was already at my limit even with the support of the clothes golem.
Well, we turned up at the human village after half a day. We didn’t co across anything particularly dangerous on the way.
Since the clothes golem ran out of mana on the way, I refilled the magic stone with magical power… It’s better to make use of magic stones and not be stingy. I can get a replacent when we return.
We arrived at the human village after various things, the Sia Township.
Other than water and food, I brought a lot of money from the dungeon. A portion of what the bandits were hoarding was able to be retrieved when the attack happened.
A stone brick wall about five ters tall enclosed the town, gatekeeper soldiers were standing guard at the entrance gate. I an, it’s pretty huge. Isn’t this town more of a city? Wonder how many people live here…
Looking at the map for now, there were gates in the north, south, east, and west. This appears to be the west gate.
“Halt! What business do you have in Sia!”
Approaching the gate, the gatekeeper was being vigilant and called out for us to stop.
I stopped since making trouble would be annoying.
“Ah, sorry. I’m from the country. Do I need to do sothing to get inside?”
“… Answer the question. What business do you have in Sia?”
“Eeh, I set out from my old way of life to beco an adventurer.”
“Hmm… Is that a slave? Is it yours?”
“That’s right, I picked it up by chance.”
“Why did you co at this ti?”
“Well, since knights seem to have co by and subjugate so bandits the other day, I thought it’d be a safer journey. I didn’t really co here to do anything. Peace is good… Wait, perhaps, is there sothing wrong with the ti right now? Sorry, a countryman like doesn’t know of things like that.”
I didn’t lie at all… After looking through the DP catalog and seeing [Lie Detecting Magic Tool (50000 DP)], I decided it would be better to be careful just to make sure. It was half the DP of the [Healing Scroll (100000 DP)], so it could likely appear on the market.
Need to be careful to not say too much.
The country had three residents (one being a dungeon core), and I decided to beco an adventurer for information gathering. I picked up at in the dungeon, and ca across knights on the way (the bandits were in the dungeon) so it beca safe.
“Oh, I see. Sorry then… Right now, so higher ups ca. They are related to those knights you talked about before.”
“So that’s it then? Work must be hard. Then, can I pass? Or do I need sothing?”
“Do you have identification? If not, it’ll be five silver coins and one copper coin. One copper coin for the slave. The collar counts as identification for the slave.”
Gah, they need a lot… I confird I brought my wallet. It had about eight silver and thirty copper in it. Yep, though it looks like I can afford it, how much money will it cost inside…
“Ah, the silver coins are a security deposit. Since you will get an ID from the guild if you beco an adventurer, just co back later and show it… But I wonder if you have the money to register as an adventurer after leaving the country? It takes three silver to register at the adventurer guild. Three copper is fine if you have a soldier accompany you to the adventurer guild until you can show ID. I’ll tell you now, the two copper is the labor cost. We can go imdiately since I’m available right now.”
Oh, in other words… to save two copper, I can go to the adventurer guild without a guide, register and co back, then ask for the deposit back after showing the ID, then heading back to the adventurer guild… Yeah, botherso. Better to ask for that.
“It’s appreciated. Could you please?”
“Well then, I’ll accompany you… Oi, switch watch with . See you later, I’m off for guide duties.”
I paid the four copper.
The soldiers for watch duty alternated and we headed to the adventurer guild accompanied by the soldier.
Two copper for directions was cheap, probably.
… I didn’t have gold coins, but I wonder if they exist anyways? How much money would it be worth?
Though there were gold, silver, and copper in the DP catalog’s treasures list, it felt like it kept going on for a hundred pages.
Ah, but there’s a cart in the main street with a delicious sll. Likely due to the large amount of grilled skewers, it slled like roasted at. Wonder what the at is?
“Oi, I understand your feelings but can you wait until you get your ID? I’m on the job here.”
The soldier quickly called out and stopped when I was staring at the cart.
But this soldier is a good person isn’t he. I’ll spare his life even if he cos into the dungeon.
Walking like that for a while, we ca up to a large building.
A sword, dicine bottle, and a scroll were depicted on a large wooden board hanging prominently from it. It seems that was the sign for the adventurer guild.
The people inside heading in and drinking appeared to be adventurers. To be drinking like that during the day… I wonder if they worked night shifts?
When I went to the counter with the soldier, the receptionist held out a blank registration form. This world didn’t use parchnt, but rather ordinary paper? Simply well done. Though the blank registration form was written by hand, I wonder if they have printing technology?
“Can you write your na? It’s one copper for soone to write for you.”
“Yeah… at, I’ll leave it to you.”
“Yes, Goshujin-sama!”
I got at to write for . I can only write in Japanese.
The only thing I couldn’t understand was the characters, the translation function took care of the sentences and turned them into Japanese in my head.
Conversely, other people couldn’t read sentences I write in Japanese. It was definitely troubleso, though picking up at was really good.
Hmm? … The soldier and the receptionist looked alternately between at and I.
Eh, what is it? Is a slave that can write unusual or sothing?
“It’s surprising… even though she’s such a small child…”
“Eh well, it’s because she was taught sothing useful.”
“I-is that so?”
The receptionist gave an off feeling. Perhaps not writing things was no good in various ways?
… Though it might be too late, was my appearance weird for this area?
at has black hair so I thought it’d be fine to go, but the bandits had European faces huh…
Though the clothing was pretty much just ordinary clothes.
But it seems that appearance wasn’t related to registration.
My na written, the registration was completed.
The cost to register was six silver… yeah, two silver and around thirty copper coins left… it decreased a lot.
“I’ll return since I was able to confirm your registration.”
“Ah, yeah. Thank you.”
“Don’t worry about it, it’s my job. From now on it’ll just be one copper to use the gate.”
The soldier went back after verifying the guild card.
With this ID, I could also gather intelligence while checking out the commissions.
“Well then, I will explain guild ranks.”
“Ah, yeah.”
Though the ID was finished first, it seed there was still more to be explained.
