The meat of the wild boar is firm and has a nice flavor.
　The mushrooms and root vegetables you will find on your way home will also be a good source of food.
　Thanks to your wisdom, I have already confirmed that the mushrooms and roots I found are edible.

　It's a good thing I used the gold I got from selling salt to Lal to buy some things.
　I'm going to make a wild boar cream stew with butter and milk.

　The cream stew is made by magically applying pressure to the pot to make the best use of the wild boar.


Hmmm!　I knew Revell was a good cook!


　Lal scooped the stew with a spoon and poured it into his mouth .


'...... Oh!　Revel is even a good cook!　He's as good as a dedicated chef!　That's the level of belief I'd believe if I was told I was given a culinary talent: ......

Isn't that an exaggeration?

No, it's not.

It's really good!

　Kurt and Ral, they're both smiling.

　Now I might be able to find out why they're not getting along.

　After a casual conversation, I cut to the chase.

"What's wrong with you two?

Hmm, it's a family affair.

　Lal said .
　A family affair. .......
　Kurt is the son of a lord's house.
　Lal is the daughter of a wealthy family.
　Maybe there's something he's not telling you.

Yes, it's huge. It's a big one, but I simply don't like Lal.

I could say the same thing.

I see.

　I said and nodded my head to myself.
　I think these two need some time to get to know each other.

"They're funny!

　Maybe Kyu likes to see two people who don't get along.

'Why is that funny?'

　I asked her just to make sure.

"I don't understand it, but it's interesting!

　They're young enough to be interested in everything.
　Well, that's good to know he doesn't mind.



　Yeah.



　Six days later, I arrived in the labyrinth city of Frapara.

　I was surprised by the number of adventurers as I entered the city after passing the gate.

　There were a lot of people recruiting for the Adventurer's Guild, and I was convinced that the city is known as the "City of Adventurers".

　There's a branch of Ral's merchant association in Frapara, so I parked my carriage there.

Now Kurt and I are going to go register with the Adventurer's Guild, what about you, Ral?

Do you want me to follow you?

Don't do it. You're a merchant. You can't be an adventurer.

　Kurt had a point.
　Merchants, unlike fighters, are not strong enough to hire guards for their journeys.

"I don't want to be an adventurer. I'll help you find a good adventurer's guild.

That's helpful. Thanks, Ral.

Well, Revel's been good to me. It's this much.

Then I have nothing to say to you.

　On the way to the Fleaparra, Kurt and Ral didn't fight at all.
　At first I thought it would turn into a fight, but it didn't and although they didn't get along, it didn't seem to be that bad.

Oh, um!　Are you looking for an adventurer's guild by any chance?

　I was approached.
　I turned toward the owner of the voice and saw a beastman with rabbit ears sprouting from his head.


"Would you like to join our guild, if you don't mind?


　It looks like I've been recruited by the Adventurers' Guild.
