58 – 3. Two Adventurers (11)

11.

Her honesty Even after hearing Mira’s story, I couldn’t figure out why she clung to us, but her promise to let me into her party, as if proving her own desperation, After accepting it, Chloe really willingly handed out five silver coins. It seems that the armament of the person to be a companion is an important law. Thanks to this, Mira got a holder for her dagger and a belt to put it on her dagger.

“Useful.”

“That, is it? Thank god.”

At first, it seems that he was trying to seduce us as a senior adventurer, but now his position has been completely reversed and he is maintaining a low profile to the point of being servile. I even made him buy a dagger, but I can’t break my promise. Mira glanced at me and I gave her a nod. Mira sighed and opened her mouth.

“Ha, yes. Because now it’s the same party. Please take good care of me.”

“Yes! Please take care of me too!”

Chloe grabs Mira’s outstretched hand and shakes her arm. She honestly didn’t believe that she was a skilled adventurer, but when she took out a bag full of silver coins from the blacksmith’s shop, her thoughts changed a bit. She was said to have been blue before being demoted, but it seems that she has quite a bit of money made from commissions. When her apprentice Yagong sees her staring at her sword at her waist, it seems that her weapon is also a famous sword.

Even so, seeing Chloe softening her eyes again, wondering if five silver coins were not an easy expense, I felt a little bit of remorse. Who knew daggers could be so expensive? I could have bought a cheap pair of daggers for a shilling or so at a weapon shop, but for some reason I just can’t go there.

Maybe it’s because I’ve checked Mira’s skills several times at the mansion or guild, so I wanted to give her a weapon that matches her skills. She was also confident that she would be able to recoup her investment in her initial investment in no time if she was her anyway. She scraped together the silver coins and copper coins she had hidden in the drawer, but the weapons were more expensive than she thought.

Anyway, since I’m having a party with Mira, I’m going to have to say aloud to each other. I willingly held out my hand first. I don’t know how old she is, but Mira is on her side, so I can let her go.

“I am Jin. Hey, I’m staying at an inn called In Cornfield.”

“Oh, I am Chloe. Hey, Jin is a wizard, right? I heard you talking in the guild.”

“Oh no, XX.”

As I inadvertently cursed, Chloe twitched her long ears and looked at me again. No, I didn’t do anything wrong, but I shouldn’t be angry for nothing. Not to mention how annoying it is to call someone who can’t use magic a wizard. I caught my breath when I saw that even Mira was paying attention to me.

“That…… There is a misunderstanding.”

“Huh? Then isn’t it? Unless you’re a Wizard…… Oh, maybe a scout? Doesn’t look like a cleric…….”

“I’m not just an adventurer. I am a common man Ah, Mira is a thief. Log class.”

“Uh…… ?”

Chloe’s face was stained with bewilderment. Why? Is it really that shocking that she’s not an adventurer? I was revisiting her conversation with her, and when she suddenly saw Mira avoiding her gaze, I realized her situation.

Come to think of it, Chloe thought of us as ‘the same party’, and in the first place, she knew me as a wizard of Mira and her class and tried to somehow fit into the party with the two of them. You’re not an adventurer, let alone a wizard. The country must have been embarrassed too.

It’s not intentional, but in a way, it’s a contract that’s tantamount to fraud. I was thinking about how to deal with this, wondering if I should return about half of the payment, and looking at her pockets, Mira tapped me on the shoulder and shook her head. What, does she mean to do something for her? As I waited in silence for her lips to open, Mira smiled strangely. Something ominous.

“I’m sorry. Come to think of it, Chloe probably didn’t know.”

“Yes…… Then what should we do, even if we want to go to the dungeon together, the party is only two…….”

“Jin doesn’t like to be an adventurer, so it seems like she’s a little out of the way to pay attention to someone who’s been ripping her off. It’s a pity that she can’t show off her skills even though she’s talented. Is not it?”

“Ugh…… ?”

Chloe’s expression subtly changes. Isn’t there something too? Face called. More than that, why does the story of Celine appear there? I just don’t like to work. When I interrupted the conversation and tried to refute something, Mira quickly pulled Chloe out and distanced herself. No, when did they try to eat you, and since when did the two of you become so close?

“──Certainly, Jin has a bit of a laid-back side. Anyway, unlike adventurers like us, he has nothing to regret. Why, no matter how you look at it, you look unusual.”

“Ohh…… ! I heard it and it is!”

No, why are you like this? Is there anything more to regret than that? I am a person who always lives with regret. Didn’t he end up hanging out with that obscure swordsman because he was saving even four silver coins right away?

“I can’t go into detail, but there are circumstances. I don’t usually like to go out on my own, but if you show your sincerity, being an adventurer is no big deal. Yes?”

What is it? Hey. Mira, it looks like you’re overestimating me for saving you at the mansion, but dealing with humans and monsters is as different as heaven and earth. Besides, I didn’t come by wiping out all the guards like the knights of that cathedral, I borrowed the power of a tool to hold a few knights at their feet. Just as I decided to correct her misunderstanding at this point, Mira spoke about a different story that I hadn’t thought of this time.

“For example, yes. Do you know the story of the dungeon where the artifact was hidden a month ago?”

“Amnesia Dungeon (A Labyrinth of Amnesia)!? I can’t know that Even on the way to the East Side, rumors spread around the area. I heard that all the flying and crawling adventurers failed to attack.”

“Hey, wait.”

“Yes. There are circumstances in the guild, ? Although it was widely reported that the party led by the prosecutor solved it. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that Jin attacked alone.”

“What!? That dungeon…… !”

Damn it, Chloe’s eyes, which were looking at me suspiciously earlier, instantly filled with emotions that cannot be expressed in words. Rather than my words. Why are you exaggerating everything in front of the person concerned? Rather, it is not , But . Guy Gerald, I know he has dark feelings for Mira, but he can’t help but blow up what happened in the dungeon while drunk. Of course, he said it because he thought he had a special relationship with me, but the unfortunate thing doesn’t change. I’ll have to ask later

“Well, it’s not surprising. After all, what Jin solved was unknown. He wants to live quietly. It’s a pity, but I think it’ll be difficult to organize it as a party.”

“That… ….”

A little taller than me, Chloe looked up at me while being held in Mira’s arms. Do not do that. I’m not going to be an adventurer. I don’t know what kind of existence I’m picturing in my head, but if it’s not possible, it’s not possible.

“Although, as long as Jin joins the party, I don’t need to find a wizard, I won’t have to worry about not being able to get a request, and I won’t starve because I can’t collect the silver coins I spent, but I can’t help it. We just have to try it together.”

“Ugh…… Jin, how could it not be?”

“… ….”

I finally shut up. As I walked along the beach towards Chloe’s inn, I endured her pitiful gaze without her saying anything. Feeling like trash carrying two women around and making them cry——I’m not kidding, there were quite a few passers-by who really looked at me like that——and before we knew it, we arrived in front of the inn.

“What, was this the place you were staying at?”

I asked Chloe, looking at the familiar building and sign. All of a sudden, , Chloe, who didn’t know that our inn business was almost ruined because of this place, answered me with her bright face.

“Yes! The food was delicious, and the room was clean! Although a bit pricey.”

“That could be solved as long as Jin comes into the party and accepts the request.”

“Well… ….”

Do it in moderation, really. After that, it can be very tight. When I noticed, Mira stuck out her tongue and opened the door to her inn, taking Chloe with her. She said so much that she had no intention of being an adventurer, but strangely she became more and more stubborn. First of all, I had to fill my stomach, so I followed them and passed the swing door that opened smoothly without squealing.

Looking around, I thought. Well, it’s still tidy and full of guests. Now that I know that the weight classes are different, there is no particular division. After a long time, we all looked for an empty seat to eat fresh fish dishes, but suddenly a large man occupying a large table alone caught our eye. It seems that there are no empty seats other than that place. When I leave Mira and Chloe alone and willingly go there…… It was only then that I could understand why this seat was not the only seat.

For some reason, the color of the skin below the back of the head was fresh. I was reunited with the half-orc’s ferocious face, and he looked at me and sighed as he looked at Chloe hiding behind me and Mira frowning.

“Something.”

“No, that’s it.”

There are no seats. Can I sit with you?

Of course, in front of that grim face, my mouth didn’t budge a bit, so I kept repeating what I was going to say to myself.

If I had known this would happen, I would have just followed Isaac and returned to the inn. Today, I especially missed that freckled face.
