Chapter 202: Arrived at Port City Verulean

The next morning, we had our final breakfast in the mansion that had been our shelter for the past week .
By the way, for breakfast, I prepared a Chicken Soboro Bowl [1] made with finely minced Cockatrice . [2] It’s actually a very simple dish . First, I run so skinless chicken at through the mincer and then stirred the at over low fire in a heavy skillet . For seasoning, I went with sugar, soy sauce, sake and a bit of salt . Sui wanted to help, so I let her continue stirring the soboro for while I prepare the scrambled eggs .
[2] I had to crack a lot of eggs, but I’m kind of used to it now . The treatnt for the eggs was similar to the at . First, beat the eggs with a little water, salt and pepper, and then pour it into a heavy skillet and keep stirring until it curdles and starts clumping together . All the while making sure to scrape up everything from the bottom of the pan so that nothing burns . I like my egg nicely golden yellow, but still a little silky, so I turned off the fire while it was still a little wet and kept stirring until the temperature ca down and the egg stopped cooking .
[2] By then, the minced Cockatrice was done too and it was ti to serve . I served the Chicken Soboro over plenty of rice in bowls . Making sure to cover half the rice with the bright yellow egg and the other half with lovely savoury brown minced at . Both Dora-chan and Sui proclaid the result a success, but Fer complained that there was too little of it . Ahh, well, I just let him have as many ‘seconds’ as he liked until he’s satisfied .
[2]Hurrah for rice!
For a Japanese like , a single bowl of Chicken Soboro Bowl hits the spot just right and prepared for the day ahead .
Once we left the nice mansion, the first place we stopped by was the rchant’s Guild to return the mansion keys to them . I was worried that we might be too early, but it turned out that the rchant’s Guild opened very early in the morning [3] since rchants like to get an early start on their day too .
After that, it was off to the Adventurer’s Guild .
Yoran-san was already waiting for us when we stepped into the guild, “Your Orc at is ready,” he said, and led us to the warehouse . [4]
Once I’ve put the at away in my [Item Box], he said, “Ah, setting out for Verulean right away after this?”
“Yes, that’s our plan . ”
“I see, well, thank you for all your help . ”
“No, no, thank you for your care here . ”
“Do co and stop by this city again soti in the future . ”
“Of course, I will be more than happy to . ”
“I have already contacted Verulean’s Guild Master, so do send my regards to him . ”
“Alright . ”
With that, our business at Neihoff was concluded, and we made our way towards the port city of Verulean .

It has been six days since we left Neihoff and our trip was proceeding very smoothly . I’ve since gotten used to travelling via [5] Fer Express, I asked him to speed up a little . Since we now travel at a much faster clip, we would arrive at Verulean the very next day according to Fer .
“It’s kinda boring to just travel like this,” Fer suddenly comnted .
“Indeed, naa,” sohow, the little dragon even managed to yawn while winging along with a high-speed Fer .
These two... thankfully, lovely Sui was currently napping within her leather bag as usual .
“What are you two saying? Isn’t it good when a trip goes smoothly?”
“I guess, but it’s no fun . ”
“Yeah, I was hoping that so monster would attack us . But I guess I was too optimistic . ”
Well, now that I think about it, thus far it had been us going after other monsters rather than the other way round . [6] In fact, I can only recall a single instance where a monster actually ca after us, and that was the Orthrus . Technically the Griffon ca to fight too, but he had been so respectful that I can’t see him at the sa level as ordinary monsters...
I am very thankful for this monster-less trip, but it looked like Fer and friends were kind of dissatisfied...
“Umu . It really didn’t look like there are any strong monsters around... hm?”
“What is it, Fer?”
“A Troll, I believe . There’s a Troll making its way towards the road ahead of us . ”
A Troll? I’ve only ever seen Trolls in dungeons, but it looked like they do exist on the surface as well . Those monsters were huge .
“Trolls? Those are really stupid, naa . To think they’ll still attack even after sensing our presence . Well, it probably won’t provide much entertainnt, but I guess I’ve no choice . Here I go!”
“Oi! How dare you?! I need the exercise too, you know! That’s my prey!”
“O-oi! Feeeeeerrrrr!”
Ignoring my shrieks, Fer tore down the road with still clinging onto his back .
“Guoooo!” the Troll roared at us from the middle of the road .
Doshu—-
Oh, he’s dead . Dora-chan had wrapped fire magic around his body and then sped right through the Troll’s belly . Leaving a little hole on its stomach .
Dosun–
And, down he goes .
“Dora, I’m the one who discovered that troll!!”
“I don’t care, first co first served!”
“Gununu!”
Fer and Dora-chan began arguing with each other as I got off of Fer to put the Troll into my [Item Box] .
“Hey, hey, stop fighting you two . Don’t you want to get to Verulean before nightti? If we get there on ti we can take a request from the Guild right away and you can let it all out when the ti cos . ”
“Nuu, very well . Dora, when the ti cos I shall have the first strike . ”
“Oh, is that so?” [Z1]
“Dora-chan, don’t say that,” I admonished .
“Tch,”
Don’t you ‘tch’ you little brat . [7] To think that these two would argue over who would get a chance to beat up monsters . How could my familiars be so warlike? Could it be a side effect of Vulcan’s blessings? Ah, but I’m pretty sure they were already this violent before...
Whatever, I better start thinking of a way to solve their lack of exercise . Cranky monsters are dangerous monsters after all .
Thankfully, there were no further incidents after that . [8] We arrived at Verulean around noon, and thanks to my shiny golden A Rank Guild Card, I was able to gain entrance to the Verulean City even with a very conspicuous looking Fer and Dora .
The scent of sea tickled my nose . Well, it looks like we have really reached the city by the sea .
Alright, let’s head over Verulean’s Adventurer’s Guild .
