Having prepared food, Carrot also looked at their armaments.
“Two swordsmen, don’t you guys have anything other than a longsword?”
“I have a dagger.”
“A shield or other secondary weapon?”
“Don’t have that?
“Okay, are the archers enough arrows?”
“I have 50 rounds.”
“That’s enough. priest, what did you say your name was? Vita?”
The nervous priest raised his staff and looked at it.
“yes!”
“Are you wearing no pants?”
The girl wearing a priestly robe had a troubled expression on her face.
“Uh, isn’t it?”
“hey. Buy this priest a pair of pants.”
“I have those extra pants.”
“Good. Then let’s mend it and put it on. Look, I can’t just walk around in a light robe like that when I’m out the gates and out in the open air. There are many poisonous bugs in the grass.”
“Ugh! A bug?”
“Yeah, really, everything comes out. Even a priest can get married if he puts his mind to it, right? If your beautiful legs are damaged, you will be at a disadvantage when you get married.”
“Gee, Gio. Can you give me your pants now?”
“I changed clothes on the market street, so go out the gate and sleep. Now, it looks like you’re almost ready, so let’s go!”
Carrot raised her hand and began to walk briskly.
“How are you? Is it Carrot?”
“huh? ah! toast! Molly! What’s up? Is it a date?”
Toast smiles brightly as Carrot greets the two of them on the road.
“uh? They really look like they’re dating…! aaagh!”
Molly, who toasted the toast, looked down at Carrot and said.
“Don’t mess with this guy. Because it is unpleasant.”
“Oh, yes. I’m sorry Molly, so don’t look so scary.”
Molly turned her head and saw the four men standing behind Carrot.
“Who are these people?”
“We are training new adventurers. I’m going to the grape dungeon from now on. This is Molly, the wizard of the Molly Wizards.”
“omg! Bar, nice to meet you!”
Molly smiled brightly through the boar skull on her face.
“nice to meet you. Everyone, please be careful. Oh, yes.”
Molly rummaged through her pocket and pulled out a scroll and held it out.
“It’s a Magic Missile Scroll, but it’s left over after delivery. Let’s try writing it.”
“Delivery? Are you making a Molly Scroll?”
“It’s a few simple things, but they’re great for making pocket money. Toast, wake up! Let’s go.”
“Is that all it means to burn people with electricity? That’s why you haven’t married yet…!”
Paji Jiji!!!
Electricity spurts from her slender hands, and her eyes stare at the toast.
“Cover your words so that you can do it.”
“Nothing. Lady, come on. This faithful maid will escort you.”
Toast looked her way in a soft voice and the two left. Carrot smiled awkwardly and looked back.
“Oh, sorry. I keep running into people I know.”
“no. are you okay.”
“it’s okay. There are a lot of things you get for free.”
The guard frowned when he saw the party arriving in front of the castle gate.
“What is this time? Leading the guild beginner adventurers?”
“yep! I will go to the Grape Dungeon!”
The guard looked at the people standing behind him and looked at Carrot again.
“The kids who used to play in the plaza when they were young are now trying to earn a living. It’s bittersweet. Going to Grape Dungeon? afoot?”
“yes! I often went on foot with Crank.”
“I get it. Be careful.”
The guard stamped the reception desk and returned it.
“ruler! let’s go! Now the adventure begins!”
There was something about Carrot’s cry that made people’s hearts flutter, thought those who followed.
During the two-hour walk, Carrot chattered incessantly. From the basic common sense that adventurers should know, accidents and mistakes they have seen and experienced, and because they set out to become adventurers with only a knife, the automaton’s chatter was exciting and valuable information to them.
“and! Having said that, there is no reference book or guidebook that I would like to recommend. Everyone lives a vulgar life, of course, I know that experience is the bottom line.”
“Something like a book?”
“There seems to be an adventure notice posted on the guild bulletin board.”
“Ah, that’s just an advertisement or publicity material. I’m talking about more field-oriented information.”
Boris, who had been listening quietly, said.
“Then you can make one, a guide for beginner adventurers with automatons.”
Everyone saw Boris. Boris shouted, blushing.
“why! what!”
“No, that’s a pretty good idea. I’ll have to ask Crank when I get back. Let’s go get some rest over there.”
“to? Can we go further? It will arrive late.”
Carrot pointed back. Sweaty Vita stands leaning on her cane and slumps.
“Do you humans know what the winning survival strategy has been? It’s collaboration.”
The four of them closed their mouths and opened their eyes a little wide at the heavy answer. said Boris, scratching his head.
“Is that a real automaton? You seem to be talking to the high priest?”
“really.”
Sitting in the shade of a tree, Vita said while admiring the surrounding scenery of forests and fields.
“To live in a narrow castle, abandoning such a vast land…”
“Isn’t this a place where only humans live? After you’ve rested, you’ll be fine… huh?”
Carrot turned her head and sensed something. And the four people, who were very nervous, grabbed their respective weapons.
“It’s a carriage. A carriage is coming.”
“where?”
“excuse me. went down the hill Hide for now.”
“yes? why?”
“There are plenty of human bandits and scoundrels with evil ulterior motives. Be wary of people you don’t know when you go outside. Be wary of anyone you know.”
“Tsk! It is a harsh world.”
Kobe with his bow said, hiding behind a tree. Carrot smiles. About that time the carriage came near. It was a two-horse wagon, with a man armed with a crossbow sitting in the driver’s seat.
Carrot, who was looking at it quietly, said lowly.
“…a person I don’t know. just let it go.”
From noble mtl dot com
The carriage just passed by. After a while, Carrot ordered to move. Vita murmurs gloomily as she walks helplessly.
“I wish I could have gotten it and gone for a ride.”
“I know.”
“swimming? Do you think I will just give you a ride?”
Everyone saw Carrot going ahead with a slap in the face.
“Do I have to pay too?”
“How many times have you seen kids like that turn into bandits? However, there were cases in which those who could communicate with each other were sent without giving a little money or food. But be careful with Vita. The bandits just won’t let the woman go?”
Vita made a tired face. Geo asked.
“Have you ever been through something like that?”
Carrot, who was walking, looked back.
“huh. He refused to negotiate. So I killed them all.”
“Eh…”
“Automatons can’t harm people…”
Carrot glanced back and smiled.
“Hi-Hi.”
Everyone thought they were getting goosebumps for a moment. At that time, Carrot jumped into the air with an incredibly high jump, turned around and landed behind the party.
widely!
Carrot raised her head and laughed and shouted out loud.
“slow! These slugs! Come on run! Otherwise, I will eat you!”
“aaa!”
“Mom!”
When Vita fell, Kobe picked her up with incredible strength and started running.
It was the first time for everyone to joke around, so the travel time was getting slower and slower.
“it’s hard?”
“…Gwa, it’s okay.”
Carrot looked down at the sitting Vita and looked up at the young men around her.
“Basic fitness is important. When you go back, go around the city wall in the morning and in the evening. Walk first, then run when your legs get stronger.”
“City walls? The big one?”
“Crank did it. By the way, don’t even goblins or orcs come out? I want to match the connection ability once.”
While everyone was looking tired, Carrot discovered something else.
“uh? It’s a carriage again.”
“oh! ah···!”
Vita was delighted, but her expression suddenly turned grim. She saw Carrot. Carrot crossed her arms and smirked.
“Come on, hide.”
A moment later, Carrot, who was watching a passing carriage, opened her eyes wide and jumped up and ran.
“Eek?! Carrot!”
“Someone I know!”
“no! I told you to be wary of people you know!”
“Listen to that and grab a wagon!”
The people sitting in the driver’s seat saw something running and raised their weapons in surprise, then relaxed their arms at the familiar face and voice.
“Carrot?!”
“It’s a surprise! Why are you here!”
“wow! glass! Remo! Adam! Lena!”
When Carrot greeted them, Rimo, who sat in the driver’s seat, stopped the carriage and the party got off one after another. People who participated in the Dragon Rare Expedition gather around Carrot, who is smiling brightly.
“Long time no see, what are you doing here?”
“It’s like training new adventurers.”
When Carrot looked back and gestured, four people walked over and bowed their heads.
“That’s what the guild is doing. Usually, new adventurers learn by joining existing parties.”
“At the existing party, there are members who want to head-butt the newcomers to the ground like this because they don’t accept them well.”
The bowman Kobe said a word. Rimo, who was listening, laughed hahahahaha.
“This friend seems to have accumulated a lot. I like it. You have to have that kind of temper to eat on this floor. So, where are you all going?”
“Grape Dungeon! where are you guys No, how many people are empty before that?”
“The ghetto captain, Molly, and Toast have gone to other jobs, and we are on our way to subdue monsters in the pioneer village to earn pocket money on our own.”
Yuri nodded.
“If it’s a grape dungeon, it’s just a short walk from here, right? Shall I give you a ride?”
“really?!”
