207 Episode 207 "I tried to collect information by remote control while having my bride show me everything".txt

Hey, adventurers, are you still angry?

I regret it. I've learned the power of the Sea Dragon Kerkator's blessing.　We won't look down on you swordsmen anymore!

When they saw us returning to the ship, the Fu-sei mages began to tremble.

It's not that we're not angry.

It's just that we want to know the relationship between the original guild and the wizard who occupies the fort.

Well, we said to the two guys from the Wind Spirit Mage.

Buuuuuuuuuuut!　Grogggghhhh!

I don't know!　A wizard taking over the fort...!

Wow, we were just recruited, and we were on a roll.

I figured if I joined a guild like that, I wouldn't be ridiculed: ......

'I just paid Arshas 1000 for the accessories!

Please. Please, please believe me...!

Buh-buh-buh!　Groggling!　Twitch, twitch, twitch!

They both sat down and their bodies began to twitch, so that's all I could do to listen to them.

I guess they were just recruited, and they just went along for the ride.

Maybe they have nothing to do with the wizards who have taken over the fort.

The Wind Spirit Mages basically work on ships, so they can't communicate with the Original Heroic Guild during that time. And in this town where wizards are discriminated against, they don't get off the ship. Either way, they can't get involved.

'I'm sorry for doubting you. Now, just relax on the ship.

"...... yes.

Sighing, we left the "wind spirit mage" and the others behind and got off the ship again.

After that, we went to the harbor warehouse to deliver our goods.

We also got to hear from a merchant in town.

The town used to value warfare, and the lord himself was a swordsman of great skill.

The merchant sighed.

Maybe it's because he's an acquaintance of Ilgafa Lord, but he doesn't seem to have any prejudice against wizards. He looks very, very troubled.

''Because of that, swordsmen and warriors are given preferential treatment. In the Adventurer's Guild, wizards are treated as supporters of swordsmen, and their rewards are also discounted. However, it is only recently that they have begun to be registered and monitored.

Since the wizard took over the mountain fort?

Yes, sir.

The merchant nodded in response to my question.

''I've noticed that some suspicious people have been recruiting the town's wizards. I've informed the lord of ...... 'There is nothing that can't be solved by sword and power. What can a wizard or other wizard do?' ...... and he just said: ......

Next thing I know, the wizards are taking over the fort.

I see.

The lord was a terrific swordsman, and he looked down on wizards.

Because of this, the town itself began to discriminate against wizards.

But when the wizards couldn't take it anymore, they took over the fort," he said.

...... In that case, don't you have to persuade them first?

My lord is a man of 'nothing that can't be solved by sword and power'. He says that talking is the same as admitting defeat.

...... Hey.

If they try to take the fort back with their soldiers, they'll have a hard time doing so.

Are you going to blame the soldiers for this?

Is that clear?

"'There's nothing that can't be solved with a sword and force,' so if it can't be solved, it's probably because the soldiers don't have the power to do it: ......

"?　You're not from this town, are you?

No, no, no, it's just a general rule.

I couldn't help but stick to my reply.

I wonder if it's .......

In the original world, it would be "If you have the energy and motivation, you can solve anything. Therefore, the reason why we can't solve the problem is because we don't have the energy and motivation.

I've met similar bosses myself, so I know what they mean.

If swordsmen and warriors are favored and wizards are discriminated against for that reason ...... then it's not surprising that wizards would be angry ....... I don't know if they should occupy the fort or join the 'Brave Men's Guild', though.

Then after talking some more with the merchant, we left the warehouse.

By the way, the lord's prized bonsai tree was normally bought for us. The merchant had a subtle look on his face that said "............ well, we'll have a relationship with you in the future".

That's the end of the job that the lord of Ilgafa asked me to do.

The merchant-san introduced me to an inn, so let's take a break there.

''I'll sort out the situation.''

This is an inn near the port.

The room is filled with Cecil, Aine, Iris, Raphilia and Cutlass.

'First of all, Iris, can you summarize what the merchant told us?'

Yes, sir.

Iris nodded and stepped forward.

'The 'bad wizards' that the guards mentioned have been holed up in a fort at the foot of the mountain for several weeks now. Their purpose is to defeat the ...... mountain demons and improve themselves.

What's the point of being in a huddle?

''Yes. There are many fast-moving demons in the mountains around here. By defeating them, they're probably training to increase their magic's hit rate and chanting speed.

But ...... why are they occupying the fort?

Cecil nodded his head.

'Yeah. I've wondered that myself.

'You don't have to take over the fort while you're just training.

"The merchant said that he wanted to 'show his power so that the lord will treat the wizard fairly' - that's what he said. The reason why they don't allow other people into the mountain is because they want to prevent people from finding their way home.

It's ...... 'Sutokku'.

I'm not averse to the idea of ...... training ourselves, though.

Both Cecil and Iris have subtle looks on their faces.

"(Aine) (Boku) and the others' destination is (is) over (is) the mountain path.

Aine and Cutlass voiced their voices in unison.

That's the problem.

The ruins of the Ancient Elven City are just beyond the mountain path. It's a low mountain and the roads are well maintained, so it's not difficult to cross. I've heard that the locals are out harvesting as well.

But that's not the case when a wizard is holed up in a fort.

I don't want to be attacked from the fort, and I don't want to be attacked from behind after I've broken through.

Besides, the ...... fort might have people from the 'White Guild' involved.

I don't want to deal with the visitor's 'cheat skills' + (plus) 'grouped wizards'.

We can't just blow up an entire fort with the Ancient Language Magic Fireball.

I'm not going to be able to get my hands on them. I'm sure you're not the only one who's interested. I heard that there is another route where there are demons, so let's gather information on that one.

Start with a safety plan.

When that doesn't work, we'll figure out what to do next.

'Yes, sir!　Then Iris and the others will go gather information!

Shuta, Iris raised her hand.

''My brother has promised the guards that he will keep an eye on Cecil-sama and his master. Also, Cecil-sama and Master are discriminated against in this town. Would you please leave it to Iris and the others to prevent them from being displeased?

Can you do that for me?　Iris. And Aine and Cutlass.

Of course I do.

Aine and Cutlass raised their hands.

'Iris, I'll do my best. I'm a little nervous about not being able to get direct instructions from your brother. ......

My instructions. ......

You're right, I'm a little worried myself. I've never been to this part of town before.

It would be great if I could come with you and tell you what to do, but...

............ is what?

It's ......, it's that simple.

I looked at Cutlass.

'Sorry, ...... Cutlass. Can you connect with me for a moment?

Yes. I'd be happy to...?

Cutlass, you're scaring me.

I shouldn't have done that. You have to explain it in a clear way.

What you're asking for is for me to give you the body of a cutlass. I want you to come into the city with me and we'll experience things together.

My skill, True Consciousness Sharing, Mind Linkage True, has a video transmission function. I can send a video of what all the slaves are seeing.

By using this function, I can give instructions to the slaves while watching the video in real time.

Right now I'm connected to Raphilia, so let's deactivate that and then connect with Cutlass. Aine will talk to people, Iris will analyze the information, and Cutlass will deliver my message, because it's the best balance.

It's just that...

It would certainly be embarrassing for Cutlass to have ...... me show him everything.

"Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah.

But I think you'll get used to it as you go along.

I'll go on!　Do you wish to continue?!

Yeah. If it works, everyone should be able to work more smoothly and comfortably.

'Bo, we're ...... pleasantly ......'

I know you're nervous. I know you're nervous, because I'm going out there and letting Cutlass see everything. But, you see, I don't control Cutlass. Cutlass is allowed to do what he wants to do...what?

............

Cutlass unexpectedly closed his eyes as he sat up.

Then he blinked a couple of times and opened his red and purple (...) eyes. This reaction was--.

Fynn?

Yes, sir. It's me. I'm here because Cutlass is at his limit.

Fynn smiled mischievously.

'I'll tell you one thing, Arujidono.

What's up, Fynn?

Nowadays, Cutlass is pretty d*mn cool, don't you think?

What the hell are you confessing to all of a sudden?

Because with the story you just told me, the scene of Arujidono and 'Osoto' getting together has popped up in Cutlass's mind.

...... in my words?

I told Cutlass to, um, connect, to let me borrow you, to come to town with you, to show you everything.

............

I look at Cecil and Aine, Iris and Raphilia and they ...... all nodded with bright red faces.

...... It's gone. The explanation was bad .......

'There's nothing wrong with Arujidono. But Cutlass is rapidly awakening as a 'woman's girl', so these things happen.

Fynn knelt down in front of me and took my hand.

I understand my role, sir. I will follow Arujidono's "Komando" and faithfully carry out my mission. Please go to ...... Arujidono.

With that, Fynn closed his eyes.

And then...

Aine, Iris and Fynn got ready and then went into town.

On the way, Fynn, who was getting dressed, inadvertently sent me a video in real time, but other than that, there was no problem.

There's a window in front of me for "True Consciousness Sharing: Mind Linkage True," and it shows what Fynn saw.

Specifically, it's the town and the backs of Iris and Aine. Sometimes they're looking back at the camera.

I send Fynn a message that says, 'I see you. It's okay,' I send him a message.

In the video, Fynn says the same words, and Iris and Aine wave to me.

Okay. Link is fine.

I'll leave the details to the three of you and I'll only give you instructions if I have to.

The best way to do this is to have a good time. So this is the Adventurer's Guild?

As the three of us entered the guild building, people turned to look at us in unison.

The inside of the building is the same as any other town's guild.

It has a reception area with the guild and a tavern attached to it. People looked at Aine and the others and quickly returned to their own stories as if they had lost interest. Aine went to the reception desk first. That this place is linked to the adventurer's guilds in various places. After confirming that Metekal's 'Common People's Guild' registration can be used as it is, he heads to the quest board.

''The quests we have right now are 'Exterminating Goblins on the Street', 'Cleaning Doves', and 'Exterminating Rats in the Warehouse District'.

Fynn tells me what the quest is about.

'...... I don't have a request for the mountain side.

Potentially, Aine murmured, "I think it's a good idea to stay away from a fort occupied by a wizard.

''I think it means to stay away from the fort occupied by the wizard, as much as possible.

The pressure of the lord of this town, I suppose.

It's a complicated thing to do.

Fynn: 'How can I help you, Arujidono?'

I just got a message from Finn.

It's from...

let go

fight back

escape

...... Why these three choices?

Where did you learn this stuff ......, or me?

I've told you guys a lot about the games in my world.

Nagi: "Disappearing

Fynn: "Ine-sama talked to the receptionist!

I'd like to ask you a few questions about the posted quest.

Oh, yes.

'I'd like to take a quest to defeat or collect them. I'm good at killing the 'Blackhounds' and 'Mountain Goblins' that live in the mountains, do you have any quests that are just right for me?

............ No, I don't think you should be in the mountains at this time.

Fearn: "The Received Word is a muddy word

Fynn: 'What do you want to do?'

investigate thoroughly

after all

clear away

Nagi: 'Kame'

Fynn: "Irisu-sama, you've got to make fun of me!

'How are the townspeople doing?　There must be many opportunities to get into the mountains for firewood, collecting nuts, etc. I wish I could help you.

No, no. Actually, the ...... outlaws have made a fort ......

'Of course I'm not going to head that way. However, I'm afraid there was another route. I've heard that it's a path that leads to demons, and I was wondering if you could give me some information on that one if you could .......

Just one thing: ............

The receptionist approached Iris and whispered in a whisper.

'Although we do not officially accept them as a guild, we do have requests for such quests. Just ...... confidentially, please keep it confidential. If other people find out about it, it could be troublesome.

A pain in the ass, huh?

I will see to it, Your Majesty. Do you all consider wizards to be an abomination?

Aine and Iris shook their heads, and Fynn's vision swayed from side to side.

''Even as the ............ guild, we are troubled by this matter. There are some wizards we've known for a long time, and some of us have been booking requests for a long time, so ......

Then the receptionist looked at the faces of Aine and the others.

''Ladies and gentlemen. Can you keep your secrets?''

Of course... and I promise.

You can go here at .......

The receptionist opened the door behind the counter.

'What can I do for you, Arujidono?'

Fynn asked.

You know...

fight back

I'll go with you.

Nagi: 'I'll follow you.' But be fully alert.

'Yes, sir. I will inform Aine and Iris of this as well.'

I don't know if Fynn's instructions were conveyed, but Aine grabbed the "Hagane no Mop" and Iris grabbed the "Anshinto Kokoro Yasumaru". Aine's storage skill includes "Dragon Sgoiner". It's because I can force my way through in a pinch.

I have an appointment with my client to meet him at the back door: ......

Passing through the guild's office and down the hallway, Aine, Iris and Cutlass reached the back door.

When the receptionist opened the small door, they found themselves in a town alleyway.

In the middle of the narrow street stood a woman whose face was hidden by a hood.

'You're right on time. Humans are so meticulous.

The girl turned around and said.

'I've heard from the Guildmaster. Lila-Tinotas.'

The receptionist bowed to the girl in front of her.

'Your request was to find a party to accompany you to the other side of the mountain, right?

I affirm. I didn't expect to be followed as soon as I entered the town, though.

Did you scatter the guards?

Denial. They let me off with the condition that I would only stay in this town for two days.

...... That's a lot of work.

'The pilgrimage over the mountains is a practice that has been done by our ancestors for generations. We can't just give up on this.

The girl removed her hood.

From underneath it, a pair of slightly spiky ears appeared.

Sleepy, narrow eyes. Red hair. A slender body. A dagger at her waist.

'............ half-elf, I presume?'

Affirmative. Are you guys prejudiced against wizards?

These people seem to be doing okay.

The receptionist looked at Iris and the others.

'My request is to escort this gentleman across the mountain to avoid the example fort.

'There is a tradition in our own clan to travel to the other side of the mountains as a test of coming of age.

The half-elf girl said.

'It's an old lesson, so I know the way. But it is difficult to defeat a demon alone. So I've been sending requests to the guild for a long time now.

However, as long as the lord has given us an order, we as a guild can't accept a request from the 'wizard'.

The receptionist took over the girl's words.

'But not if the adventurers are going to talk to each other independently. If you intend to go to the mountains, why not accompany me?

The receptionist of the Adventurer's Guild looked at Aine, Iris, and Cutlass and said something like that.
