Chapter 101 – Felgion (1)
A guard approached us after riding through the warp gate.
“Well, if you’ll excuse me, please present something to prove your identity.”
It was a very humble attitude.
This was a problem no matter how ordinary we dressed as adventurers. Iris was a warrior, and I was the first true ancestor born after the first true ancestor.
Besides, even my older sister, Obsidian, the highest spirit spirit, surrounds and protects her surroundings.
It’s safe to say that a single guard did his best to do his duty, just by coming up to us and asking for identification.
I laughed and took out a plaque made of platinum from the subspace.
It was an item used to show a certain level of status, but not to reveal exactly who it was.
Why, a copper adventurer or a silver mercenary? It is introduced in this way.
Bronze colors were usually used by general mercenaries and adventurers.
Silver is an item used by those who are somewhat famous among dogs, or by knight apprentices.
Gold is mainly used by knights and nobles. Or, among mercenaries, he was judged to be A rank or higher.
Platinum is usually used by high-ranking nobles, such as counts or higher. The guard’s face turned white when he saw the platinum plate I took out.
It seemed frightened that I had bothered a high-ranking noble, so I put the platinum plate back as if nothing had happened.
“You don’t have to be scared, so just leave.”
Before I could say anything, my sister chimed in and the guard looked at me. Apparently, since I was in the lead as if leading the group, he seemed worried that he would make me feel uncomfortable if I just listened to my sister and walked away.
Well, I didn’t mean to come all the way here and quarrel with the guards. When I nodded, I watched as he quickly returned to his seat as if he had finally lived.
“And. This is my first time.”
“What?”
“ID check!”
Iris looked excited. Well, now she’s dressed like an adventurer, but there’s no way Iris would normally wear something like this.
Besides, she couldn’t have taken an escort with her. Wherever she went, she would spread rumors saying, ‘The princess is coming to deliver——!!’.
This experience will be different again. It was her good fortune to see her in good spirits.
In this way, we entered Lavita, the city of adventurers located at the entrance of the mountain range.
“Well, then, are you going to buy the necessary items for the adventure now?”
Excitedly, Iris lit up her eyes.
I can understand her feelings.
“No.”
“Why? It is written in the book that it is very dangerous to venture out without any preparation!”
That’s not wrong. I nodded. Seeing me nod her head, Iris’s face brightened.
“You left pretty much everything in the subspace.”
“Ah.”
And at my words that followed, I suddenly became sullen.
The reaction was that I hadn’t thought of that because I was so excited. Should I stop teasing you because you’re so sullen?
“Because I don’t have anything to buy.”
“What… ?”
I answered.
“Person.”
Flinch.
Iris, who had stopped for a moment, glared at me.
“Are you kidding me?”
“It’s not?”
It was then. Didn’t my older sister, who was watching the two of us scuffle like that, quietly burst into laughter saying, “Poop.” Hagisa noona was a veteran who traveled all over the continent with me for over 10 years. Even though Iris was cute, she seemed ridiculous.
“Why, why are you laughing?”
Iris reddened her face. She didn’t know herself, but the other people laughed, so she looked worried that she had done something embarrassing.
“Why do you buy people? I buy it because I need a guide.”
“… It’s not like there’s a particularly dangerous demon, so a guide?”
What kind of bizarre thing is that? Iris looks at her sister like a pseudonym. She didn’t care about her older sister’s gaze and laughed with her ‘heung-heung’ snort.
It’s only that much, so I have no choice but to teach it.
Even if he did not express it in words, his attitude, attitude, and facial expression seemed to show that intention. Iris pursed her lips.
“Rather, since it is the ‘Dragon Mountains’, there are guides. There are no dangerous monsters, but the terrain is very rugged and complicated, so where else can there be a place like this for a guide to work?”
It was.
Dragon’s Mountains, known as the most rugged mountain range on the continent. If someone in the middle enters without knowing anything, they will be trapped in the mountains and die. However, there were always many people who wanted to enter the mountain range, considering the elixirs, herbs, and spirits that were piled up in it.
Eventually, out of such demand, professional “Guides” Emerged.
Our goal is to cross the mountain range, but isn’t the purpose of other adventurers to search inside the mountain range? For such people, a guide who understands the geography inside the mountain range was essential.
At this explanation, Iris tilted her head again.
“Then isn’t it true that we don’t need a guide?”
No matter how tough the mountain range is, if the goal is simply to break through, then Iris’ words aren’t wrong.
“I told you. I have to catch the dragon.”
To be precise, there is one dragon that later converts to the demon lord.
You may have already contacted the Demon King by now. In fact, seeing that the demon king converted and killed his own people as soon as he descended, it may have been planned before the demon king descended.
Or, as soon as the demon king descended, he changed his rope.
Either way, it had to be caught and killed now.
The black dragon, Pelgrion.
“Ji, are you really catching dragons?”
“Okay.”
I nodded, and Iris’ face turned white.
That’s why you need a guide. Because I had to avoid entering the territory of another dragon and reach its rarity.
Of course, I don’t know where the black dragon is as a guide. At least, you must memorize all the places that are the ‘territory of the dragon’. If you take a guide and go to the dragon’s realm one by one, you might be able to find the rare of Felgrion.
Iris seemed terrified at first when she was told that she had to catch the dragon, but when she explained that the dragon was on the side of the demon king, she gathered her mind and nodded.
Because you are a righteous warrior.
Our party found an adventurer’s guild. It was said that the size of the guild was quite large, probably because it was a city where the influence of adventurers was quite large.
With my daughter
The sound of bells ringing as the door opened instantly caught the attention of the adventurers sitting in the guild.
“Hey. Look over there.”
“Ok? What … Oh.”
Whispering voice. It was annoying, but I decided to let it go. In fact, the gazes that had gathered in this direction fell one by one.
To keep watching, both my sister and Iris were so beautiful that the viewer felt burdened, and exuded an aura.
As we approached the counter, a nervous staff greeted us.
“Uh, why are you here?”
“A guide beyond silver to go deeper into the mountains.”
Most guides are bronze. It is because they are almost similar to herbalists, who do not take risks even if they memorize the geography of the mountain range, and who do not develop personal strength.
Guides above silver are rare. It is because those who lead the way, even though their own strength is considerable, have circumstances or are of a different species.
So, a puzzled look appeared on the face of the employee who heard me.
“Well, it’s hard to find a guide of silver level or higher right now…”
Thud.
I took out a bag from the subspace.
Not only the eyes of the staff, but also those who secretly peeked from behind held their breath.
“Aren’t those platinum coins… ?!”
“What the fuck is that all about… ! Would you eat for the rest of your life with that?”
“I’ll bet my fortune if you gamble away everything within a week.”
“This chewy … You know me too well!”
Back is noisy In any case, he paid such a large amount as compensation. As long as it’s not the capital, you can build a spacious mansion anywhere on the continent and live comfortably for the rest of your life.
Most of the mercenaries accepted the request once, and then they didn’t treat the requester as their superior until they accepted it. This is because during the request process, if you want to be a jerk, you can send it back without accepting the request.
Of course, once you accept it, you will be treated as a customer wholeheartedly.
But that is only if the amount is below a certain level.
With this amount of money, even if the opponent was gold, I was the top. Anyone can name them however they want.
Naturally, the employee urgently called the superior.
“He-Joe, could you wait a moment? The branch manager…”
“No work. Silver rank. Guide. Save it by this time tomorrow. If you complete the quest well, I’ll give you twice as much.”
I had no intention of meeting the branch manager, so I put my pocket back into the subspace. Those who had swallowed their breath at a large sum of money made a flagship once again, as if they had noticed the existence of sub-space.
“Is that a subspace? It’s not an artifact, it’s magic?”
“A wizard who uses subspace magic? Fuck, this is the first time I’ve seen it with my own eyes.”
I left the whispering voice behind and came out.
