Industrial revolution starting with the undead

After taking over the carriage and taking over, me and Chris finally arrived in the capital of the Grand Slam Empire - the imperial capital, E. Nurtz.

Leaving the Earl of Fleetberg, it's already the tenth day. Unfortunately, even the Empire does not have a direct carriage from Fleetberg territory, which is located in the countryside, to the Imperial capital. As a result, the journey to Imperial Capital would take a carriage across various territories, and it would take a long time for a straight distance to be about five days. And most importantly, it was a miscalculation that we needed a price for two people to stay. Because it cost about 30% more than expected, it was critical at the road bank that your brother gave you.

Well, from here on in, you're going to be taught in dwelling, and I want to believe Eleonora is welcome without a sentence.

"Wow."

"This is the imperial capital, E. Nurtz. It's the heart of the empire."

"Hiro."

"As far as I can see, there's buildings everywhere"

In all directions, unlike Fleetberg territory, where you can mostly see mountains everywhere, the Empire City is full of buildings.

It is all big enough to confirm its existence from as far away as possible, such as the huge commercial guild building and the National Academy of Magic building in the Grand Temple of "Ecclesiastes", as well as the watchtower that stands several times in the city. And most importantly, is it a luxurious palace built on high ground?

This is the capital.

Where I lived until two years ago.

"Let's go"

"Yes."

But strangely, I didn't feel nostalgic.

Rather, discomfort stands first. This is also probably because they used to come and go in rural Fleetberg territory. Perhaps we should say that we are open to the number of people.

Well, I'm not a lord anymore, and going back to Fleetberg territory would be something like once or twice a year. I don't know how many years it will take Eleonora to teach me, and even if I feel uncomfortable right now, I should get used to it one of these days.

Stay away from the boarding carriage station with Chris and head for Boulevard.

It's the biggest shopping district in Teito, with a lot of people on weekdays, with neat shops and dewstores lined up about seven to three percent.

The union head of the mall said, "There's nothing you can't come here to match!" But you are in fact right. I've been here a couple of times, but there are really a lot of different stores lined up.

Food and daily items are naturally gear for adventurers, such as weapons and protective equipment, as well as drugs and domesticated animals. Instead of anyone being able to use magic only once, some stores sell the delicacy 'Demon Scroll (Scroll)' that once used it loses its effectiveness. This is a substitute that only a wise man with an art book of sorcery can carve magic into a scroll. Even such rare things are put up for sale, and I'm sure there's nothing here that doesn't fit together.

By the way, the forbidden ones are sold in about two more streets away. I've never set foot there because it's a slum town where the gendarmes don't patrol either. But as far as rumors go, are there also subhuman slaves, uncertain art books, and drugs that are forbidden by law?

I won't be taking you there in the future. Even my life is important.

"Odori, full"

"You're sold a lot. But Chris, even if you ever shop here in the future, don't buy from open-air merchants."

"Rotten?

"It's a shop that has products lined up on the rug without setting up a shop. Look, like that."

Without sawdust, fingers indicate a suspicious open-air dealer on the street.

I said up, "Big sale, meat! 'and the price tags listed are far cheaper than regular meat. That's cluttered in the cage lined up on the rug.

But before that, there wasn't a single shopper. The other shops are busy. In that way, Chris tilts his neck.

"Mr. O'Geek, he's not here. Why?"

"Oh... that store, you don't write about any meat. It just says' meat '."

"Yes."

"I mean meat that you can tell people. For example, with dog meat. It doesn't smell like wild dog meat."

"Heh."

"So you buy what's properly labeled 'beef', 'pork' and 'chicken' in a decent store. Otherwise, they'll buy weird meat."

"Okay."

Chris snorts at my words.

Earlier words are one example, but when it comes to open-air merchants of a worse nature, they may be selling meat from old people who are no longer able to work or suffer from illness. You won't know if it's even processed into meat, think.

Exactly. I'm sorry for the future of such meat lined up at the table.

"Well... the map says it's just a short way through this mall..."

A simple map of Teito, written behind the business card Eleonora gave me.

I'm supposed to go right down the next street through the mall and be in a private house next to a magic supply store...

"Here...?

Corcoda Magic Supply Store, and a shop with a sign.

The store is lined with cluttered lineups like clumps of crystals that you don't know what to use for, canes of oak trees that have no first impression of "magician-like" practicality, and a circlet with mysterious gems, just like the sign "Magic Supplies Store". What I want at best is to make an undead? Seeing the price too high for nothing written on the price tag, though I don't even want it.

Next to such a magic supply store is probably the house of Eleonora, the destination. In a good way it is an atmospheric, in a bad way it is a very suspicious little western hall. The presence of brick walls, monster stone statues at the doorstep, and mysterious purple smoke rising from the chimney are just typical magician's mansions.

"Here?"

"Oh, maybe......"

Slightly watching the monster's stone statue, he enters the mansion's premises from his doorstep.

If you are as mage as Eleonora, you will also be able to use the monster of the stone statue as your own user demon. And there's a chance that he'll be attacked as an intruder upon entering the premises.

Most of all, my fears were worrying, and I was able to get to the door without any problems.

In the meantime, I'll knock on the door knocker with the lion as an elephant twice, apple, and.

Hold on, hold on.

"Yes, sir. I'm sorry, but if it's for sale, I refuse..."

Gee, and when that heavy door opens.

What showed up was a beautiful woman with very blurry blonde hair, black edged glasses, obviously a loose eye when she was awake, plus a ruffled shirt with only underwear on her lower body.

A woman like that looks at me with her eyes over her glasses.

"... Huh?

"... yeah, yeah?

"You............... gin, huh?

"Ah, yes. Um, this time, discipleship..."

Bye, and the door can be closed.

The wind shakes my hair so much, the momentum is strong.

... Huh?

"Ahhh!?

"Wait a minute! Stay right there! Just give me a minute! Oh, no! Well, get something to eat in the shops around here! In the meantime, I will prepare a lot of things instead of changing clothes!!

"Oh, ha, yes, I get it. What would you like?

"Leave it to me!"

"Ha..."

Although I'm still a little confused, I figured out what I needed to do.

For now.

I think I should prepare a souvenir.
