195 Chapter 13-3 Albert, Down
Stepping into the guild following Mr. Flute, it was busier with more people there than I used to be. And one thing I noticed:
"Don't you have a lot of young adventurers, Mr. Flute?
Younger adventurers than me, and possibly newcomers to adventure, accounted for quite a few. Because of this, in front of the bulletin board, there seemed to be a simple request initiative that even newcomers could take.
"Is that okay, that?
"It's okay. If you go too far, a veteran adventurer hired as an employee or mentor will stop you, and we've made sure that your usual attitude is helpful when ranking up."
When Mr Flute said so, he turned his attention to the officials who were staring at the newcomers taking up the request.
"You're tougher than before."
"Well, it was special when Mr. Tenma, but it's certainly tougher than it was back then. And by the way, the reason has to do with Mr. Tenma."
Mr. Flute says the Guild of Adventurers in Gunjo City is the youngest hero in this country right now...... I mean, it's called a place like the 'Holy Land' where I officially started my adventurer activities, and it's been a lot lately that young people who are looking to be adventurers choose this place for their adventurer debut. Because of the number of people, the level of ranking has risen slightly, but newcomers who still want to take on the exam seem to keep coming.
"And yet, nobody comes near you, does it? Even though some veteran adventurers notice me and look disgusted or wave lightly."
"I'm a newbie, so I guess I can't pay attention to my surroundings. In that sense, I'm also saying that none of the newcomers here right now are dizzy at the moment."
Again, as the number increases, so does the pin, but I guess it means more quills. Or it is conceivable that a strong rookie did not choose this place for his debut, where he had little work to do.
"That's right, where is the woman (...) related to Tenma?
Talking to Mr. Flute, Amur asked Mr. Flute to interrupt us. Even though only Mr Flute has said 'related people', Amur...... on the contrary, our women seem convinced that the person is a woman.
"I'll be there."
Ahead of Mr. Flute pointing at him with a bitter smile was a woman sitting at the reception talking to one adventurer...... Serna. Serna looked so sneery that she had never seen her close to the adventurer she was talking to.
"That (...) is Tenma and..."
"I'll tell you first, the man I'm talking to now is her lover (...)"
"That guy (...) is going to get along with Tenma...!
Amur changed his attitude one hundred and eighty degrees the moment he found out Mr. Serna had a lover.
"I just wanted to say hello to Mr. Serna... but there's quite a few adventurers lined up behind his lover too"
"She's popular."
"Ah! My boyfriend, he hit me from behind!
"It happens all the time. Well, if it's too much, the officials will turn to caution, but now he's occupied the counter for a long time, too. It would be critically acceptable."
Amur's way of saying it was a little exaggerated, in fact, to the extent that Mr. Serna's lover was lightly slapped on the flank by an adventurer who was lining up behind it. Well, it just seemed a little out of the 'light' range, but if they hissed me in front of me when I said I was waiting for the order, I guess the way I cautioned them would be a little rampant too.
The lover, noticed by the adventurer behind him, immediately apologized and gave way to the place. And he shyly moved to a seat a little further away, where he was' lightly 'slapped by other adventurers, even on the move. Serna, too, was turning a bright red face teased by an adventurer who cautioned her lover, but was soon getting back to work.
After seeing how those two were doing, I decided to go to the Guild Chief's office and talk to Mr. Flute and the others later.
"In other words, the fact that Mr. Flute had a child made the guild leader serious..."
"Yeah, at first, even in this guild. Like Mr. Tenma and the others, 'It's fake! You're making a scene."
"You're really rude guys, aren't you? I was just doing my job seriously... well, unlike in their case, I could beat him up and quiet him down."
It's been quite a while since I retired, and that's what I would call a former A-ranked adventurer, and I had my chest stretched that I wouldn't be dealing with a C-D adventurer.
"Well, when the B-rank adventurer who happened to be here came out, he was letting me explain."
"You suck."
"You suck."
"You suck."
"Scythe"
In turn, it's Chris, Cain, Grandpa, Amur. Jeanne and Primera don't talk about it, but they seem to think the same thing. And
"Guild leader...... you suck so much. It's boulder!"
Finally, once again, praising the guild leader with his thumbs up as if I summed up everyone's thoughts, the guild leader was so happy he was sitting deeply down on the couch with tears in his eyes.
"For once, I am the great man of the guild..."
"No, there are people here who are better than guild chiefs, and I've never seen guild chiefs work in the two years they worked in Gunjo City. In the beginning, it was as much as Mr. Flute thought he was guild leader. And I was so surprised to find out that even half of Mr. Flute's inability to work was top of the list."
Hearing my words, Mr. Flute nodded to his satisfaction, saying that Primera was the same for herself.
"How could the guild chief have been the guild chief in the city of Gunjo in the first place? You know something, Primera?
"No, I have nothing..."
"Ah! I know! I heard it again, because my father told me about it from the Duke of Sanga before!
I didn't know Primera, but Cain was talking about hearing it again, so I asked her to explain.
"The point is, if the top is not, but the bottom is solid, does the organization turn? Besides, is the guild leader just right for the gods because he doesn't boast about it because he's gained power?"
"And he also said it's easy to cut off your neck when something happens..."
Everyone, except one, looked surprised at Cain's words of shock. By the way, it was Mr. Flute who wasn't surprised. Perhaps he had heard those stories from the Duke of Sanga.
"Me, let's work more seriously..."
"Worst case scenario, I'll take care of it?
"You can have a baby on a boulder, but your father can't be cool with a hippo."
"Well, I know how that feels, but since this has been the case so far, the more I can think of suddenly over-stretching it, the more confusing it will be down there, and vice versa, the better."
"Yes......"
Soon after the guild chief decided to continue to take it seriously, a poor thing happened: he would stop at ease from his grandfather. And Mr. Flute also told me, "That's better for the guild," and eventually the guild leader was in tears.
"Tenma, Serna says she can't get her hands off the job, so she's going to say hello after work"
"If that's the case, tell him to come to the 'Full Pavilion' about dinner time. Maybe because I think I'll be there late at night. And Mr. Flute and the Alliance Commander, come when you have time."
That's what Mr. Flute said when he went to check on the counter, so he decided to ask Serna to give him a message. And when I asked both of them to join me, Mr. Flute promised me that the guild chief would come alone, although he still remained idle.
"You're done sooner than I thought... we've got time, and should we go to Congressional Headquarters? 'Cause maybe Albert's still here, and there's someone in Congress who wants to say hello."
I even came to the council headquarters feeling that Albert had made a mistake and headed for the guild. There was no Albert, but since the person of interest in the council was Serna's uncle, Marx, I decided to ask him to call me by saying the requirements at the reception...
"You don't even have Mr. Marx... you have no choice"
Mr. Marx said he seemed busy running around here, so he asked for a message saying, "If you have time at night, I want you to come to the full pavilion."
"Don't you dare, go back to the guild once. Albert would try to rendezvous with us if he were to move. So if you can't, let's go to the hall Albert said."
At first, I had an opinion on whether to make a full pavilion if I were to stay in Gunjo City, but the full pavilion didn't know if I could get a room for the number of people in the popular inn, and the Duke of Sanga had a museum in Gunjo City to use when visiting, so I decided to take care of you. By the way, Primera lives in the city of Gunjo, but not in the Duke of Sanga's house, and uses the dormitories of the Knights. The reason for this is that Primera is looking to gain an honorary lord independently in the future, and she wants to get used to living alone early (though a little different from living alone because it's a dorm). Later, the hall was too large, and without my family, I felt restless.
It was kind of noisy coming back to the guild talking about that. At first, I thought it was because the newcomers noticed that me and my grandfather were here, but that's not the kind of atmosphere.
"Can I ask Mr. Flute inside..."
I thought so and tried to find Mr. Flute, but before that came a knight who was supposed to have followed Albert's escort and was taken to the Guild Chief's office. Inside the Guild Chief Office,
"Are the guild lengths still dripping? And why is Albert blushing?
In the guild chief's office, there were guard knights who felt like they didn't know what to do with the guild chief, who drifted deeper than earlier, and Albert, who seemed shy, and Mr. Flute, who laughed bitterly.
"Mr. Flute, what happened?
"Well, simply put, Master Albert did the same thing as Mr. Tenma and the others. Besides, in Mr. Albert's case, the adventurers who watched it rode badly because of the noise in the guild, and the atmosphere was unusual... or it was a festival."
Albert, who was at the center of it, said he noticed his mistake when he saw the adventurers start making noises with amusement, and that it was at this rate a short time before Mr. Flute led him to the Guild Leader's Office.
"Albert... that was something I had no choice about. Cain has done the same to me and Chris, and don't worry... but let's make an effort to switch as an unfortunate accident. First, shall we head to the hall?
Albert nods honestly to my suggestion. I would have felt this embarrassed before, but maybe I don't have the experience of being alone. Thinking about it, Lion, who has a blunt spot and recovers quickly, is probably the strongest of the three. Aside from whether that's kept alive in your normal life.
"Shiloumal, lead the way, please. The knights don't have to be insignificant, so move to surround Albert. And then appropriately...... and it was! Mr. Flute, the Shilowmals' bid..."
"I'm ready."
"Thank you. See you at night."
Hanging a string with an appraisal tag around Shiloumal's neck, he took the lead and left the guild chief's office, until then the noisy guild calmed down perfectly. Especially the adventurers who knew me were turning away easily to their faces, and some of them were turning away the faces of new adventurers who would be looking after them with all their might.
"Just look at this reaction and you'll see how rampant the tenma was..."
My grandfather says that while looking at the adventurers around him, but he didn't stick it out of me, it's all the result of payback, so I shouldn't be bad...
"Look, everybody, let's go!
I rushed everyone watching the adventurers and tried to get out of the guild a little early, but only Albert and the knights attached to that escort followed me.
"I'm really leaving you!
When I went to the guild door and screamed, everyone's legs finally started to move.
"I heard you talking... Tenma, you were a pretty problematic kid"
I'm catching up with you. Mr. Chris is going to tear it up, so it's a polo,
"That's why Mr. Chris isn't hot."
I've spoken the truth that you shouldn't leak. And then I said, "Shit!" I realized it was already late, and Mr. Chris' hand was about to squeeze my shoulder.
"I wonder what that means, that?
Mr. Chris has asked with a smile, but his eyes weren't laughing.
"Mr. Chris had a problem as a student, so a man wouldn't come by, would he? What difference does it make that people don't come to me after all the messing around in Gunjo City?
I don't think I should apologize here, and when I got a little strong and returned a question to the question, Mr. Chris didn't think such a question would return, and he lost his strength from the hand placed on his shoulder.
Taking a distance from Mr. Chris without missing that moment, Mr. Chris said, "Shit! He was reaching out to me again, saying," Amur broke in between us,
"Tenma. Tenma is wrong. The teasing is with us, but Tenma has me! And Jeanne, Primera and...... Luna too? But Chris doesn't have anyone. Lion, who was the only possible, is now stuck with stalkers and doesn't know what will happen. Sounds cute, but no one really..."
Dis Mr. Chris as he sold himself in. Jeanne and Primera, named by Amur, were looking at Amur with a surprised face, and Aura, who was beside Jeanne, said, 'What about me? He looked alternately at Amur and Jeanne's face with a face like'.
"Amur...... wait!
And the promise to begin.. Mr. Chris and Amur disappeared into the crowd.
"... Yikes! Let's go to the hall!
Amur just created an atmosphere where he didn't know how to react and irresponsibly disappeared with Mr. Chris, so he shouted out with the intention of resetting everything once. But...
"Tenma...... ask for my sister, duh!
Albert rode the atmosphere made by Amur. And I was raided... from my own sister.
"Primera, you...... haha!
"Nooo... not brilliant"
Albert became quiet after being devoured with a second full body blow from Primera, who turned bright red in the face before he uttered the next word. He just works out on boulders from time to time and seems to be wearing an efficient attack on the human body. Moreover, the series of moves that made him suffer in the first shot and precisely prune his consciousness in the second was brilliant enough for his grandfather to roar.
"Mr. Tenma...... did you hear anything?
"No, I didn't hear anything! Mr. Primera!"
Unexpectedly, it was me who said 'Mr. Primera', but I guess that's something I can't help. Whatever, Cain, who was about to open his mouth to follow Albert, was also surprised by the power of Primera, holding his mouth in a quick move and pointing in the opposite direction...... look in a hurry.
"Really, that was good. And apparently, my brother got tired of traveling, so I'll guide him from here. You guys, carry this (...)!
We weren't the only ones surprised by the unusual atmosphere of Primera, and the knights of my men seemed the same, and after a moment of surprise at Primera's orders, I immediately took charge of Albert and aligned myself behind Primera... I wonder if I would lend my shoulders to the next owner of the Duke of Sanga's house to carry him from left to right as if to support the drunk, but that was all Primera was so powerful that I decided not to touch this matter any further.
"This is the mansion owned by the House of the Duke of Sanga. Like whether to use it once a year or not, but we make sure to manage the cleaning, etc. so there shouldn't be any problems. And once I get back to Knights headquarters, I'll take all the formalities and personal belongings, so excuse me for a moment."
Early on about the mansion, Primera returned to the Knights headquarters once. It is the tone and atmosphere that is returning to the usual primera, but it still seems angry at my real brother, and I say to the knight who brought Albert, "It (...), leave it in the storeroom too!," he said. Well, after I lost sight of Primera, my grandfather kept it from a knight who was not sure what to do with Albert and took him to the right room. Even a primera with an angry boulder would not complain if Grandpa put it in between.
"I don't mind playing in the garden, Shiloumal, Solomon, but don't come near the walls or go outside. Slalin, I need two supervisors."
Several people thought they were looking for Shiloumal or Solomon were watching from the outside, but they decided to let the two play, thinking they would never break into a mansion owned by the Duke of Sanga on a boulder. If there were two intended intruders, none of them would be more suitable for demons than A-rank, and even if they did, killing the opposite would not be a sin, as the trespass on the Duke's property would apply before the killing. Still, I put Slalin on the director because it prevents two people from accidentally going outside, and if there is a reckless challenger, Slalin can capture them without killing them. I don't care if it was someone who didn't have a problem killing them, I want to avoid the two of them losing their reputations unjustly.
For once, I asked Gol and Jill if they would go outside, too, but they preferred to relax in a dimension bag similar to ours rather than explore something neither of us knew, just to remind them of the bait and not try to get close to the entrance or exit.
"Well, as usual...... see, I'll leave the bait here...... did the yarn gather again? Thanks."
Gol, who came to collect the bait, gave me a thread ball in exchange for the bait. The quality of the yarn itself is a luxury product by two standards (about the second from the top), but since the quality of the yarn generally exceeds that of the finest products in circulation, there is no problem no matter how much.
"That said, you've got a lot more inventory... do you want to release it somewhere"
Basically, Gol and Jill yarn are only sold to people I know, so people waiting in order are waiting for the finest, not the finest. Moreover, the order is managed by Maria, so if she asks for a luxury item while waiting for the finest item, she might be put behind the order. Therefore, luxury products with no sales channels are stored in velcro bags, which can make them feel extra.
"Well, you can leave those two to Slalin, and then you can put Ryden in the stable... okay, so don't be so angry"
I took Lyden to the stable, and Lyden, reluctant to be in a narrow place like the stable (instead of the Duke's stable being small, Lyden just being big), kicked the ground with his forefoot and protested. So I decided to let it go to the garden just like the Shiloumals, provided it didn't break out, didn't run at all, didn't break things.
Having drunk that condition, Ryden slowly walked out of the gate to see if he was going to dare to circle the grounds. By the way, I was looking for the three of them to go and tell the slurins about the terms I put out for Ryden, and it seems that Shiloumal quickly knocked down the tree, which was preached to by the slurins.
"... the sight as usual. Leave it to Slalin, there won't be a problem."
As usual, I was the one Slalin took my job as Lord, but I always passed by and said, 'I saved you a lot of trouble. I only got the feeling that it could be easier. A normal Tamer might be a problem, but now that it's going around well, we decided that this would be the best form... so we went to secure a room to use at the Mansion.
"It's fine to go secure... there's no Albert or Primera, so you don't know which room to use"
I couldn't help but pick the right one and wandered around the mansion thinking I'd pick the room again after Primera arrived, and I noticed a few signs solidifying in one room.
