Chapter 145: Noo, I’m not ann adventurer, noo
My name is Geese, and I am an adventurer.
I heard a certain rumor recently: there was apparently a new city built in the wasteland located in the north of the Albert territory. Moreover, they say that place had a nearby dungeon where novice and veteran adventurers alike could reliably earn a good amount of money. And as if that wasnt amazing enough, they also say that there were safe zones within the dungeons, making prolonged dungeon exploration a lot more manageable.
The city itself sounded amazing for adventurers.
Firstly, there seemed to be lodgings exclusively for us. In addition, high-quality equipment made by dwarves and potent potions made by elves were apparently for sale there at a very reasonable price. Too reasonable, if what I heard was right.
For those reasons, it was no wonder that adventurers were rushing toward the place.
Im sure its all nonsense. Its just too good to be true.
I didnt believe any bit of that rumor when I first heard it and laughed alongside those around me.
In the first place, there was just no way a city like those in the rumors could ever be built in that wasteland.
All that being said, my curiosity as an adventurer won in the end.
I cant believe itits real
Firstly, I couldnt believe I had reached the place in such a short time despite the fact that I didnt walk any faster than usual.
And when I saw the city in the rumors, I was dumbfounded further.
By the walls that could rival those in the royal capital; by the large buildings lined up; by the crowds of people going to and from the city.
And all of those things were in a wasteland where no vegetation could grow.
Before checking out anything else, I headed toward the dungeon area within the city.
I had learned my swordsmanship from a well-known swordsman, and Ive never missed a day of practice ever since. I was quite proud of myself for having a sword style different from other adventurers.
If the man before me was indeed a beginner, well, fighting him seriously would be unfair, to put it lightly.
Okay, then let me teach you a thing or two. Come at me however you want.
Haa, haa, haaa g-good job. L-lets end it here today
I was breathing hard and was barely able to say those words.
Thats still learning!? Youve got to be kidding! Youre so strong already!
We were about even. About halfway through, I began to take it seriously. However, never mind winning, I could have easily lost if I got careless for just a moment.
I had made a fool of myself when I said let me teach you a thing or two.
Man, I shouldnt have made light of you. This is where strong adventurers like you have gathered, after all. Now I know that if I assume this place is like the other cities Ive been to, Im in for a world of hurt.
Adventurers like me?
? Whats wrong? Youre an elite adventurer, right? Cmon man, thats not funny. Stop talking like youre not a big shot adventurer.
Despite being uncomfortable with the other persons reaction, I decided to shrug it off.
In the next moment though, I realized the misunderstanding I made.
Noo, Im not ann adventurer, noo. Im normally a farmeeer. Ive learned how to use the sword just recentlyy.
huh?
