Gaiden – Queen of Wonderland #3

Mirna spread out her complaints like a broken dam.

“If there is a hell, this is it! How dare you dress me in such blasphemous clothes and make me do this strange dance in front of people! Let me sing… !”

It was very pitiful to see them pour out the persecutions they had been hired as a dancer in this store. Elgar asks.

“Then you can’t do it. Why are you doing it?”

“Like the easy-going Lioness, if I couldn’t do it, I wouldn’t do it. But I owe this store. I have to pay it back.”

Mirna owes the tavern.

“What debt?”

I decided to ask in detail what the situation was.

Then, when Mirna woke up, she said that she was wandering around the city and that she came into this store and ordered food while she was very hungry.

Stew with beef in tomatoes. One dry black bread. A total of 5 coopers. A soup dish with one grilled chicken, eggs simmered in salsa and soy sauce, and ground radish. In addition, spicy clam balls, apple pie, pickled peaches, and crispy grilled crawfish… . No, how much did you do? What did you do so much?

It seems I was really, really hungry.

“But when I woke up, my wallet was gone… ! It’s clear that a bad thief stole my wallet… !”

Mirna was almost foaming.

It was not enough that he made himself a no-taker, but the anger at the pickpockets who made this inn tavern into debt and sang funny nursery rhymes in front of people seems to pierce the ceiling.

However, Elgar flashed her blue eyes under her cone hat and blamed Mirna.

“You just lost it. Or maybe there was no money in the first place.”

Then Mirna gets even hotter.

“Not that! Apparently there was a coin pocket on his waist! But after I ate, it was gone!”

“Calm down for a moment.”

I decided to calm the excited Mirna first.

Just getting angry and yelling at each other won’t solve the problem. Maybe Mirna realized her mistake at the sound of my calm voice, and she blushed and rubbed her arms against each other.

“Ecchu!”

When I sneeze again, looking at Mirna’s clothes with her belly and arms exposed, it wouldn’t be strange if she caught a cold. So I put the cloak I was wearing over Mirna’s body.

slurp.

Mirna covering herself with my cloak.

“thanks. I didn’t know that I would meet Sir Tae Oh in a place like this. I’m really happy. I don’t know how happy I am. I think I’m going to cry because it feels like I’ve seen people from my hometown!”

“Hey, Mirna. Why don’t you tell me you’re happy?”

swish.

Mirna glances at Elgar who grumbles.

“I want to stop seeing Lioness Young-ae. To meet you at a place like this.”

Even in this situation, the two still seem to grow claws towards each other.

I asked.

“So, Miss Mirna, Miss Mirna is a debt that I owe. Why did you have to work as a dancer in a place like this?”

I remembered Mirna, who sang a nursery rhyme clumsily and was hit with tomatoes by people. Even if I hadn’t done such a humiliating job, Mirna would have been enough to make other money.

Mirna spoke about it as if explaining it carefully.

“Ah, that… . I’ve seen texts that say that by doing something like a dancer, the level of talent increases. Just in case you didn’t know, I was just gaining experience.”

“It’s an experience.”

Elgar said the same thing. I said that I increased my intelligence by one by doing something like a witch. Mirna also seemed to instinctively understand that raising the level is good.

Elgar says

“If you have to say it like you are great, I noticed right away. I’m already level 8. how old are you?”

“Ugh.”

At Elgar’s words, Mirna growls as if in anger. Mirna’s level is probably around 7. Soon after – Mirna sighed and said.

“So, is there anything more to talk about? Why are we in this situation? Things like what to do next.”

“I came to the tavern to check it out though. The tavern is a place where rumors gather, so I think I can decide the course of action.”

“It’s the direction of action… . What was the name of the board game we played?”

It’s a board game name.

“I think it was a fairy legend, in search of the emperor’s treasure. So, maybe our goal will be to find the Emperor’s Treasure.”

Thanks to Mirna, I was able to guess the target.

As expected, I was able to notice that the atmosphere around us changed in an instant when the word ‘Emperor’s Treasure’ was mentioned, just as I thought it was good to find Mirna.

– Hey, did you hear me? That party, they say they’re looking for the Emperor’s treasure.

-There are a lot of wanderers like that near the fortress city of Marmar. With that party gear now, you can’t even go near the Imperial Tomb, and you’ll end up being attacked by goblin in the field.

-Well, at least you have to wear a high-end adventurer’s set to endure it. What is that wizard holding? Is it just a broom?

They seem to laugh at us because our equipment is so novice. Would it be better to change the equipment a bit? I’ll give you some shields. Elgar takes a plausible wand.

But we didn’t have any money.

I asked Mirna.

“Miss Mirna, is there any way we can make money in this city?”

“Oh, if that’s the case.”

At my words, Mirna pointed to something similar to a bulletin board on the wall of the tavern. It’s hard to know what the bulletin board is because there are so many people.

“If it’s a job, I can collect and process the requests attached there. It’s like adventurers. It will be easier to raise money.”

That’s the feeling. It feels like receiving a quest in a game. It was a time when I thought it was a fun and reasonable system.

-Mirna, where did you leave your seat? I told you to wash the dishes when you get off the stage!

From the corner of the hallway over there, I could feel someone approaching this way, screaming. Mirna begins to tremble like a puppy that has been splashed with cold water.

“He is coming! Please tell me I was cleaning hard!”

swish.

“What!? What?”

“The innkeeper! No time to explain!”

Mirna takes the broom from Elgar’s hand and starts sweeping the floor. It was when Elgar, who suddenly had the broom taken away, frowned as if what was going on.

“Mirna, you were joking around here!”

Someone appears over the corner. She looked like a lady with shiny silver hair and a neck and hands adorned with jewels. His hair is silver and his eyes are red. looks like mirna

“Are you Narmi?”

“what? Tae-oh and Lioness are young girls!”

“What is Miss Narmi doing here?”

“As you can see, I am running an inn! I don’t know what it is! And, I’m making my naughty older sister work!”

The innkeeper, Narmi, pinched Mirna’s side, who was smoking. Then, Mirna screamed “Ik!” Narmi smiles at him.

“It’s so funny! It’s a fun dream!”

silkygoat was the goat. cry

Narmi thought the situation was funny, but to me it was just weird.

Didn’t Narmi go east to find traces of her mother, Naru von Draco? I didn’t participate in the board game, so why am I here… ?

Then a hypothesis came to mind.

silkygoat was the goat. cry

NPCs in the game. There are those who call them non-player characters.

They are not the main characters, but people who make up the world from various positions such as citizens, merchants, lords, and kings passing by.

Maybe Narmi got involved in such an NPC role? If I can meet other people besides Narmi, the hypothesis will be proved.

* * *

“A day trip chef. Remuneration Consultation.”

「I was looking for personal expenses to work 168 hours a week. 2 gold per month.”

“Please find the spider, Hyongi, who has left the house. Characteristic: Crying ‘Hioong’. Case 5 Silver.”

There are a lot of different requests on the bulletin board. If we accept any of these that we can solve, we can make money.

said the innkeeper, Narmi.

“Here, these are beginner quests. If you pay more, you can see the bulletin board with the professional quests over there! Of course, now you guys can’t take orders! Hi-Hi.”

Is it for professional use?

「Payment of goods: A self-employed person who will deliver jewels from the Marquis family… . Starting with 10 gold for each gem.”

“It is said that Count Leonoi’s meow has escaped. A reward of 30 gold will be given to those who fully grasp it… .”

The basic reward unit here is gold.

If you listen to the whispers of the adventurers in the tavern, they said that gold coins are ridiculously broken when you buy iron plate armor and a decent shield.

“Anyway, I got the balance!”

Swipe, swish.

The innkeeper, Narmi, grabbed a pocket full of coins. Elgar grumbles as she sees the coin pocket disappear into Narmi’s arms.

“I have to use the price of the medicinal herbs I sold to pay off my debt. If it had been for that, I would have already been able to pay for the professional quest bulletin board.”

“You can pay it back later.”

anyway.

We borrowed the money we had and paid off Mirna’s debt. As a result, I, the free knight, Elgar, the sorceress, and Mirna, the dancer, formed a party.

Next day.

“I like honey and sugar the best. Honey and sugar are the best… oh! I’m here! there! I succeeded in enchanting because my talent level was high!”

At Mirna’s cry, Elgar opened her arms.

“There are animals that come out after hearing such a strange song. Hey, Tae-oh, I’m going to push you that way, so you catch it!”

“Slap the nymphs!”

I hit the dog squirrel hard with my scabbard.

Pak!

ㅡ Kiying!

The dog squirrel then makes a strange scream and faints. Before he could come to his senses, he quickly picked it up and put it in the sack.

“sorry. There will be a lot of friends in the bag.”

ㅡ kkkkeng!

ㅡ kkkkeng!

The bag was full of dog squirrels that were caught in a similar way to the previous one. Five coopers for one of these guys. Six, thirty coopers.

This should be enough to cover today’s meals and accommodation costs. However, it was too much money to change the equipment.

Whoops, whoops.

Elgar said, tying the entrance to the sack.

“You have to do something more lucrative. No matter how much you catch a dog squirrel, you won’t be able to get out of the beginner’s section for the rest of your life. Instead of sleeping at the inn today, how about staying home and using that money to get a high-end quest?”

Elgar was right.

When we put the sum together today, we did a pretty good job. Thanks to that, everyone leveled up, and in my case, I had reached level 15, double yesterday.

I think the max level is 30. At level 15, wouldn’t this be enough for advanced quests?

So we returned to the inn and delivered the dog squirrels to Narmi, the owner of the inn, and received the money. Seeing the jangling bundles of money made me hungry and wanting to rest… .

“In order to make more money, you have to invest. Narmi, please show me the high-quality request papers.”

“You should call me the master now!”

Shh.

silkygoat was the goat. cry

Narmi brought a thick book from somewhere. And when I opened it up, I saw a lot of well-paid quests. I feel like I can smell money already.

Around the time Elgar and I were quickly rolling our eyes to see what kind of quest we should find.

“Ah, this!”

As if Mirna had found something, she flicked the page with her finger. There it is written:

「Bounty Hunt: The thief ‘flower of the night’ that makes the city of Marmar noisy at night. 30 gold when captured. Mayor Marmar Marnoy (Inn).”

“Blossom of the night, he must have robbed my sleeve! Catch this guy, get my wallet back and get a reward!”

Mirna was indignant as if she had discovered an enemy of the family. Even when I was attacked by Professor Balan in the past, I wasn’t so mad.

It must have been that Mirna’s resentment for being pickpocketed was deep.

“Hmm.”

I drank lightly and looked more closely at the request paper. It was amazing that there was a large amount of money at stake, 30 gold, but what worries me the most is the name of the market.

There’s a reason why the city’s name is Marmar. Marmar is the market. I want to meet you once. But wouldn’t it be a bit harsh for us, ordinary adventurers, to ask for a meeting?

If we catch this thief, we might meet once when we receive the bounty. With that thought in mind, there was no reason to accept another quest.

“Okay, let’s go with this quest. Let us catch this thief’s flower of the night.”

Then the others laugh.

– Did you hear it? I will catch the flower of the night.

-The thief who has no clue other than his nickname? He’s the guy who gave up on catching even the imps in the armband.

See if the job is difficult.
