260 Lesson 259

Under Saira's lead, Ataru and the others decide to change places and talk.

"Well, don't worry, we won't hear anything outside here, and the store won't hear anything."

The shop that came with Saira's guidance was a luxury store at first glance, and the rooms that were put through were also private rooms that were used in special cases. She grinned with a finger on her mouth to tell a secret story.

"... uh, could Saira be with the nobles?

Seira smiles nicely at Atar's question, who looks around the room where the furniture looks expensive, no matter how she sees it - but she doesn't say the answer.

"Well, if you're not going to answer me, I won't ask... but anyway, I was brought to a fancy store like this to try to change the place, and I can tell right away that you either have that status or you have the money"

Caro next door nodded over and over to Atal's words, sighing at him.

"Uh, that was a complete mistake...... I don't know much about the store, so I just picked this store that they brought me here before."

Seira answers that with a bitter smile in the way she didn't notice.

Ataru and the others were not from themselves, but were made to feel, even more so, the height of her identity where she had been brought.

"Well, that's good. Now I'll be careful with those things...... so what do you two want to hear?

Sitting on a comfortable sofa, sipping a drink that had been carried in advance before Sayla asks questions.

On the desk in front of the sofa, in addition to drinks, there is a beautiful array of fruits and sweets to pick from.

"Why bother telling us our story? That's the most I'd like to hear, well I'm sure you won't answer that, so I'll take it off...... then I heard there are a lot of Beastmen in this city, is that true?

Seira, questioned by Atal, sees Chirali and Caro before turning her gaze back on Atal.

"Doesn't sound like you're doing something wrong with the Beast Man. The information I know is limited, but I'll tell you if that's okay."

"Please."

With a smile like a Virgin, Seira nods once and begins the conversation with a serious look.

"As Atal said, there is an influx of beasts in this city. Originally, it was a city with many people, elves, etc., but with the development, the number of beasts gradually increased. What's more, I think it was about a decade ago… several colonies of beasts have been attacked around it and since then there have been many beasts flowing into the city"

Perhaps one case of that settlement being attacked could be expected to include Caro's hometown as well.

Did you hurt your chest remembering the situation at that time, Seira's expression becomes hard.

"- Are there rabbit beasts among them?

To this question Sayla looks at Caro again before thinking of an answer.

"How many beasts are there? Also, what species of beast man are there?... I'm sorry, but I don't know that much either, so I can't answer the details. But I think it's possible that you're here. The western side of the city is mainly inhabited by the beasts, so I think you might be there."

Saira said so, taking a simple map of the city from somewhere and spreading it to the table.

That's a lot more mess than the Ataru and the others got to the minister, but it was something that showed the general structure of the city.

"This is the Adventurer's Guild we were in earlier, and it will be the heart of the city. Going west from here there is the residence of the beasts. If you go east, you'll be where the nobles live. The north faces the sea, so it's a harbor."

Describe it as Saira points it at her fingertips over the map.

"I see... by the way, this southwest part says nothing?

It was a crisp map, but somehow only the southwestern part remained white as if it had fallen out of place.

Pointing out there, Seira had the most disfigured look since we met today.

"That's where they call it slums… well, what do you call it, where there are people whose lives aren't very wealthy, where security..."

The state of Ceira, which I mumbled there, tells me that it is an insecure place, and that the city stuff doesn't come and go much, it's a place you shouldn't touch.

"Uh, I see."

In this world, the difference between rich and poor is rarely filled because of birth, talent, etc., and yet there is no guarantee by the administration, etc.

"Well, that's the thing...... Let's return to this for a moment. If there's a rabbit beast man you're looking for, I think it's one hand for the two of you to go to the area where the beasts are. However, Caro is fine, but Atal doesn't seem very comfortable because he's a human race - no, or he could get kicked out."

Without hiding it, Seira tells us about the possibility that could happen as the Atals headed in from now on.

"You know what... maybe it's not a good idea if I'm with you. But I'll leave Caro alone... Any good hands?

Ask Seira a question, wondering if there must be an atar with her hands on her mouth as she contemplates.

"Even if they ask questions like that..."

But Saira gets in trouble - giving her a look like that.

"That's right..."

Stinging and Caro dropping his shoulders, Atar, who couldn't help but take her eyes off Seira, narrows her eyes softly.

"Heh, I'm sorry. Looks like Mr. Atal figured it out. I'm sorry, Mr. Caro. It's a joke."

"... What!?

Caro is honestly surprised at Seira's apology for smiling, and Atal has the look of after all.

"I know there are many ways, but the immediate way that comes to mind is to get a request that the Beast Man is putting out, or to take a joint challenge at multiple parties - I think it would be a good idea to choose a way to be able to make contact with nature anyway"

Either way, what Seira suggested was adventurer guild related.

"Well, then why don't we go to the guild again and see if we can confirm the request"

"I thought it would be a good idea to do that. Shall we come then? I'll pay here..."

Determining that the story had just settled in a good spot for Kiri, Seira seemed happy with Atal's choice, who had stood up after taking a plate for the slip.

"- Oh, yeah. One last thing, okay?

"Yes, what is it"

Stopping Saira from getting up on her feet as if she remembered.

"How do you know the names of me and Caro when you're not named?

The moment I heard that question of Atal, which I asked in a casual atmosphere, Seira stiffened up.
