In a World Filled with Deserts, an Old Man with Electronic Money

"Do the labels wear a hood?

"Because we look like this. If you walk like this, some of them smack you in the back. In King's Landing, I am a princess, so most people take care of me, but this is a different country."

"It's wisdom to avoid useless clashes."

"It's a bad place in this world."

We safely arrived at the port of Old Town and disembarked after depositing the ship.

First, we talked about looking around town, but no matter who told us, the labels were hiding their faces in a big hood.

If you walk around town like that, it looks too bad to prevent someone from leaving to make a fool of you.

At the same time as I thought it was a terrible story, I began to wonder whether it was a little uncomfortable.

There is no one in Japan who scolds women so openly.

The labels are called Dobbs, which is hard to see in this world, but the reaction is too strong.

Perhaps the whole world, perhaps only within the realm of Bart, is under special bias?

Or is it rude to say that there are many unfinished parts of the world compared to modern Japan?

Is there a wave of moral inferiority that openly ridicules ill-looking women?

Either way, you might want to keep it in mind.

"Lord Tallow, I'm glad you're being unreasonably angry at us, but this is also to avoid useless clashes."

"That's true. We always get Taro to say" beautiful "and love us, so there's no problem at all. It's just to keep the bugs around from making noise."

I see.

After all, this world is a bit strange.

I feel like I have some secrets, including about the "Transformer" Summon Monster.

I don't know what that is... let's think about ourselves first.

……

"What's wrong? Flaw"

"It's nice to be newlywed. I want to get married, too."

"Isn't it too soon? Flaw is twelve."

"Uhhhh, three more years? It's a long time."

I see.

Frau might get married as an adult.

Who will she marry?

"Lord Tallow, shall we go?"

"Tallow, let's start with the council in the center of town and the Hunters Association Oldtown branch. It's a very old building, so it's famous as a sightseeing spot, and hunters need to pre-register to dive into the dungeon."

You know Mu very well.

"I heard from a hunter who lives in King's Landing once dived into a dungeon in Old Town."

"I've never been out of town."

We got off the boat with the four of us and headed for the center of town.

That was the town of the dungeon, the town of a thousand gold hunters, and there were many people on the main street of the town.

There are still many hunters, and there are other men and women with good stature who are thought to be on their honeymoon.

Since other oasis will come on their honeymoon, is it natural to have money?

However, there is a woman with a man who may be her husband... and he may have a tall nose with a beautiful woman as his wife...

"A lot of shops, casinos, hotels are very upscale."

"The hunters who earned it relax. They are stressed out when they are only fighting and moderating. There's a lot of money they're looking for, and tourists are there."

More prosperous than the kingdom of Bart, to be clear.

It seemed difficult for the king to capture and rule this Old Town.

"And there are a lot of women wearing hoods... ah!

"Tallow, what's wrong?

He's got a long ear.

Is this the kind of "elf" that has often appeared in games and lanoves that I used to play since I was a kid until I was a student?

Even though I was wearing a hood, I was surprised to see a product of fantasy in front of me.

"In Taro's world, the elves are a fantasy species. It was in the book I saw before."

"I see. Desert Elves are not so rare in this world. Women are said to be the ugliest species in the world."

"That's right...."

I see.

In this world, a beautiful elf would be treated as ugly...

But men aren't said to be ugly... something's wrong.

"Elf women, without exception, are all ugly and skinny, so many people avoid it. That's why there are a lot of people in the food mix, just like us."

Like the labels, to avoid useless pussy and crashes.

"After all, is it a long life?

"Elves live long? Same as humans. Because of their thin body, they have excellent agility, many people are intelligent, their hands are clever, and many people are good at magic. They have no power, they have a less robust body."

"Does Lord Tallow mean 'Forest Elves'? Even though it was destroyed in ancient times, it is said that a small number of people live in hiding in the few remaining forests of the world. I don't know the truth, but...."

My imagination of an elf is "forest elf"?

Destroyed or a small number of people may be living in hiding.

For some reason, it seems that "desert elves" with the same lifespan as humans have become mainstream.

"In addition to the elves that show off to the human Oasis in the hunter business and trading, there are also many elves who make villages in Oasis, as well as many elves who base their lives on ancient heritage and" mobile cities. "

"I hear there are several mobile cities in the desert west of this Old Town. He occasionally trades in specialty products such as magic potions. Don't tell me there are quite a few cities on the move in other countries."

Mobile cities are said to be a legacy of ancient civilizations that perished a long time ago.

The label tells me that the Desert Elves, who used to be completely out-of-stop and were chased by humans, arrived and managed to run with their own technology.

"Moving city, romance is good."

"Was Lord Tallow a romantic boy?"

And if you get something small, it's not bad to live there.

It is a fact that life on board is difficult but inconvenient.

"A mobile city? I hear a lot of them are still out there, all over the desert. I hear a lot of things are left behind because I don't think it is possible to restart them even in desert elves...."

"Enjoy Old Town sightseeing now because I wish I could get it someday."

That's true, too.

Then we visited a council venue that seemed pretty old and had a rough time drinking the juice water we bought in the square before.

"Don't let cold juice stain your body."

"It's an easy job for people who can use ice magic. However, magicians with a lot of magic are better off fighting sandbags."

This world does not have a refrigerator, but it is very expensive and difficult for ordinary people to get it.

So people who can use ice magic often sell cold water, juice, and shaved ice.

Most of the world is desert and it's so hot that it's relatively easy to sell anywhere.

Conversely, they don't sell hot drinks that well.

"The Hunters Association building is next to the council room... is that it?"

"The process itself is going to be easy. After all, there are many hunters."

Mu is right, and the procedure is over in a few minutes.

Just put your name on the permit to dive in the dungeon.

Besides, it doesn't matter if it's a pseudonym.

"It's a diving dungeon, but I think it would be better if we checked the information in the next documentation room. The hunter himself will dive into the dungeon that suits him best."

Because it is dangerous to dive into a dungeon where all the weak but strong sandbags come out, or where the best ice magicians like Muu come out of a dungeon where all the cold and strong sandbags come out.

It is important to check which dungeon to dive in advance.

"It would be a loss to die recklessly."

That's what I'm talking about.

And the receptionist who explained to us was a beautiful woman by the standards of this world.

In every world, reception tends to have beautiful women.

From my point of view, I feel quite uncomfortable, but if I put a woman like a label in this world, it's because there's a clash in another sense...

"Let's look at the information about the dungeon in the next library."

Mu prompted me to go to the library, where I borrowed a book called the thick Dungeon Atlas.

"It's thick...."

"They find several new dungeons every year, so it's getting thicker and thicker."

"We're talking about finding that undiscovered dungeon, isn't that strange?

No matter how thriving Old Town oasis is, I don't think there's enough room for so many dungeons.

"That's right. Because the interior of each dungeon is connected to another space. Taro saw a giant rocky mountain on the east side of Old Town, didn't he?

"There it is. It was a big rocky mountain."

"The entrance to the dungeon will be excavated on the slopes of that rocky mountain. However, the inside of the dungeon is not inside the rocky mountain. It's connected to another space, so we find a new entrance to the dungeon every year."

I see, is it connected to another space?

Only the entrance to the dungeon can be found on the slopes of the rocky mountains.

So, if you regularly find a new dungeon entrance from an unexcavated rocky slope,

"These are the newly discovered dungeon data in this book."

When I scrolled with the page a little, it contained detailed maps and the types of sandbeards that appeared.

Dungeons for beginners, intermediates, advanced, and when you want special materials.

The data was very well organized.

"Dungeons make a big difference between popular and unpopular."

The number of dungeons found at this time is over a thousand.

From stuffed hunters to dungeons that aren't popular enough to let anyone in.

It was also interesting to see even the most popular rankings in the dungeon.

"Wouldn't it be nice to have a dungeon that's not popular?

For our party, defeating the Beast leaves no material behind.

Or else, it will be converted to idle on its own.

Because I don't think other hunters will see it.

"That's true. Now, this dungeon is the only sand golem."

Some of the sandbeards that inhabit the Old Town dungeon seem to be like monsters that have fallen outside the boundaries of life, like sand golems.

Sand Golems are literally sand golems, so you get sand when you knock them down.

Nobody bought it when they got it in the desert. Nobody dropped it because of its strength, so it says in the book that nobody gets into the sand golem dungeon.

Has it been treated as a hash redundancy? Let's start the hunter business there. "

I like that.

I think so.

"I will only obey Lord Tallow's life."

The labels also agreed with me and decided to dive into the sand golem dungeon first.

"Ah, but before that...."

It's a sightseeing.

It's a sightseeing.

I'm looking forward to sightseeing

In the evening, we enjoyed the Old Town sightseeing to the fullest until we decided on a boarding house.
