"You're finally home..."

It was me who entered the king's city and exhaled with relief.

Though I put it in tight once, for once, I used an ID that I couldn't get out with too much chest tension.

It was pretty occasional inside.

But Lorraine and I were just used to the King's Capital on a boulder and it was grand.

Augley and I had him go a little further inside the King's City for some good reason, but he has a solid ID, so there can't be any problems.

I'm the last one to enter the King's Capital, joining Lorraine, who stood and waited for me right through the main entrance.

"Are you here? You don't have to be so frightened."

And Lorraine, who sees my face and says a dialogue that discerns my heart.

It's true that you're not doing anything nice to be told not to freak out.

It's a difficult story for me to be careless.

That said, it wasn't broken because, even though I was frightened inside, I was able to deal with soldiers well.

They keep asking questions when they find someone suspicious of behavior.

Yeah, on such occasions, you'd rather be grand no matter how bad you do.

"I couldn't get away with it, okay? Than that...... what about Augley?

I was supposed to go in there and wait for us before Lorraine did, but I don't see her. When I asked her that, Lorraine said,

"Oh, the Adventurers' Union Guild is just going to report on the achievement of the request. We have a reward story to talk about, so wait."

"Wait? Right here."

Lorraine shakes her head when she also asks, thinking that standing on a boulder all the time......

"No, at the designated store, that is. I've heard the name of the place and the store for once, so you'll know it when you get there."

I see, I thought,

"Then go."

and Lorraine and I both walked out.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆ ◇

"... it's a very suspicious shop again."

"Sure..."

After a short walk, the place Lorraine and I arrived at was a shop in the alley, quite deep off the main street.

The sign posted at the end of the house does state the name of the store as Lorraine was told by Augley, but it is very difficult to read because of the tangling of (10).

If the location of the store had not been explained in detail, it would have definitely passed.

But that doesn't mean you can't go in there.

When I roughly open the door of the shop, the door slowly opens, along with the sound of gibberish.

- There you are.

But if you stick your face inside through the gap in the door and take a peek, surprisingly, it was more of a cozy looking space surrounded by spicy furniture.

Various plants are decorated in the store to such an extent that they are unobstructed, tables and chairs are used up to a candy color, and are all polished and medium-sized items.

The guy at the counter is a skinny old man with short cut of total gray hair and flushing behind him, and looks pretty much like he's polishing dishes, so you can see the years stacked in this store.

"... unexpected. But if someone like Augley came to a store like this, it would be quite remarkable."

Lorraine calmly puts that in.

I have to snort at this, too, but, well, it's people's hobby.

You'll be free there.

Then, in the meantime, I think I'm probably the manager and I ask the gray-haired man.

"... Um"

"Yes, why not?"

"I'm meeting an adventurer here who says Augley..."

I cut along the way because it included the meaning of whether I was already here and where I should wait if I wasn't here, the designated seats, etc.

The shopkeeper-like man immediately reads its meaning, nods,

"Master Augley is not here yet, please come this way"

He also guides me to a seat in a particularly deep position in the store.

The place, which was barely visible from the entrance, seemed easy because it seemed like you didn't have to look people in the eye.

"What can I get you?

That's what they asked me, so me and Lorraine decided to wait, appropriately, for just a drink.

It tastes good, and I feel like I've been introduced to a good place in a store that I would definitely like to go to if I used Wang Du as a base of activities.

So, after waiting for Augley for a while in a relaxed mood, I heard the sound of the door opening too much, and then I heard the shopkeeper's voice and footsteps coming this way.

And

"... you kept me waiting. What do you say, this shop? I like it inside..."

With that said, Augley came.

But me and Lorraine are surprised at how it goes.

Say why......

"... you, what's that outfit?"

"Is something wrong?

Augley leans her neck to my question.

If you honestly appreciate it, it's nothing strange.

It's not weird, but it's not weird.

Speaking of Augley, whatever he was wearing, he was supposed to be a man with no different impression of being tiny.

But right now, what he's wearing, it's plain.

He comes in a brown coat with clothes of overall dark, sunken hues.

Shoes are decent too.

It was pointy and white. Earlier flashy can't even see the shadow.

Did you even eat something weird?

You must have noticed we were pointing that gaze at Augley.

Augley laughed,

"No, no, I can read about the air on a boulder. You don't deserve that outfit in this store, do you? Besides, there's something about you guys. He didn't want to stand out so much, so he cared about me. Couldn't you?

That dialogue is not surprising...... nor is it.

Because this man has been a man with this kind of place since he was in Malt.

Do you say that you can spot sensitive areas where the air doesn't seem to be readable and you shouldn't step in, and hold onto important areas where you don't seem to be paying attention?

He hasn't changed that feeling when he came to Wang Capital.

I tell Augley.

"No, I'm rather sorry to distract you... So, did you finish reporting the request?

To my question, Augley answers as she sits down in her chair.

"Oh, it's over. I got two pieces of gold. First, I want you to have this."
