Chapter 103: 103: The Heroes are Misguided Brats

When we finally arrived at the royal capital, we separated from the merchant unit and headed to the Adventurers Guild to submit the proof of request completion.

「Congratulations. Takumi-sama and Sophia-san have ranked up to A rank, Maria-san to B rank, Laeva-san to C rank, and Marnie-san to D rank. Please look after your guild cards.」

「Thank you.」

Receiving the reward for the escort request, our guild cards were updated and we were congratulated. Then, when we moved to the check the request board, it happened.

The area around the guild’s entrance got noisy, and when I turned to look, young people with black hair and eyes wearing flashy silver and sparkly armor, entered the guild with their attendants. Not wanting to get involved, I walked towards the request board, and Sophia and the girls followed.

To come across them in a place like this, how unlucky of us. Those two boys and one girl are unmistakably Japanese. Yes, the heroes summoned by Sydnia.

「Oi, look! It’s an elf! Amazing!」

「Ooh! Akira, there’s rabbit ears and fox ears over there!」

They talked in loud voices and I could hear their footsteps coming closer.

Ah, these guys are no good.

「Oi! You over there!」

Haa, so troublesome. As someone who had been dragged into their hero summoning and essentially dying, I don’t remember being called “you”.

「What do you think you’re doing ignoring me!?」

「Haa~, can I help you?」

I looked in the direction of the fool who addresses another in a manner that’s too loud and oppressive.

「You’ve got some fine women with you, don’tcha? I’ll buy them from you.」

「That’s right! We’ll buy your slaves.」

「I refuse. Well then, if that is all then please excuse us.」

It’s gotten troublesome so I signaled to the girls with my eyes that we’re leaving the guild.

「I told you to wait, didn’t I!? Don’t think you can get away scot-free if you defy us! Be quiet and sell those girls to us!」

「That’s right! If you don’t want to get hurt, then do as we say!」

「You guys! Stop it! Have you gone mad?! Don’t disgrace yourselves acting like this!」

「Shut up! Akane, you keep quiet! Fine jewels like these are hard to find even in Sydnia. They’ll be happier being our slaves than with that guy!」

The girl told the idiot duo blurting out thug-like lines to stop, but the two smiled vulgarly. It hasn’t even been a year since these guys were summoned to Mildgard, so what happened to make these boys like this? One is handsome and the other looks like a cool athlete, however, their faces that were probably popular in Japan have completely changed to evil ones.

The surrounding adventurers hurled angry shouts at the boys.

「Tch! Don’t think you’re getting away with going against the Light God Faith!」

The two boys and their attendants left the Adventurers Guild to escape.

「Everyone, my apologies.」

The girl left behind and her Catkin girl attendant apologized.

「No, you don’t have to apologize.」

When I said that, maybe the anger of the surrounding adventurers lessened as they dispersed, going to the bar or the request board. When we started heading out of the guild, the girl called out to us.

「Umm, may I please have your name? I am Akane Misato.」

「 Leader of the 『Wings of Norn』, Takumi Iruma.」

「!!」

Surprised to hear my name, I gestured with my index finger to my lips before she could raise her voice.

「If you need me for something, we plan to stay at the Lakeside Hotel so, do it then.」

I said that to the girl and left the guild.

Arriving at the royal capital of Valkyra Kingdom, we were captivated when we saw the magical spectacle of the castle seemingly floating on the lake. Afterwards, we went to the Light God Church to give our greetings, then Akira and Yamato started talking about wanting to explore the town. It would be a source of trouble if the two went alone, so Lulu and I went out to town with them.

The royal capital of Valkyra Kingdom was very clean. I couldn’t smell the awful stench that has been tormenting me since coming to this world. I heard this country began popularizing the Purifier MD.

Akira and Yamato said they wanted to go to the Adventurers Guild. That reeks only of trouble. Sure enough, the two were guilty of it as soon as they entered the guild.

「Oi, look! It’s an elf! Amazing!」

「Ooh! Akira, there’s rabbit ears and fox ears over there!」

There, a well featured silver-haired young man, a peerless beauty of an elf the likes that can’t be seen on earth, a red-haired beautiful girl, a Foxkin beautiful girl, and a voluptuous Rabbitkin beauty could be found.

After that, the idiot duo had been awful. That’s because he suddenly drew a sword and slashed at someone. Nevertheless, the silver haired young man, I don’t know what he did, but Akira’s sword was destroyed. He even threw down Yamato, who took a swing, easily. The idiot duo were enraged, but they turned meek when they noticed the seething adventurers in the immediate area had surrounded them.

When the idiot duo gave a parting threat and stormed out of the guild, I apologized to the silver haired young man.

There, I introduced myself and he also gave his name, but I almost exclaimed in my surprise.

Takumi Iruma. His appearance had no Japanese traits, but he had a Japanese name I’ve never heard elsewhere in this world. They were apparently staying at the high class inn, Lakeside Hotel. I decided to sneak away from the church and meet him. My Divine Oracle skill supported me on this.
