Chapter 265: A Day Trip
There was a group of people of various races looking at the street with sparkling eyes.
「Takumi-sama, there’s a lot of people!」
「Iruma-sama, please teach us how to use this “money”!」
「Iruma-dono, let us go to that stall!」
Today, we took a break from leveling and visited Accuros. Not only Berkut, but even the Aligerous people were in high spirits at the lively atmosphere in the port city. It was only at this time that even Bart-kun looked delighted as he observed the city.
「Don’t get lost! We’ve taught you the denominations of money! Don’t waste it!」
「Hey! You there! Watch where you walk!」
「You can buy from the stalls, but don’t bump into people holding food, okay!?」
When Sophia, Maria, and I spoke up, it felt like we were childcare workers leading children on a preschool trip.
Since everyone looked worn out leveling while on the lookout for the remnants of the old Sydnia, we let them out into the city as a change of pace.
We’ve stocked up on a lot of meat and materials from defeated monsters too, so I want to sell it wholesale.
「Accuros is the only possible choice among the cities in the Demon Continent, isn’t it?」
「Indeed. Varguard governed by Intelligent King Guzhr, Rhodes governed by the Devil King Gandalf would be fine as well, but this place has the most numerous races residing within it, and so having grown wings would not stand out.」
While keeping an eye out for everyone so they don’t wander, we also enjoyed the atmosphere of the town.
We had planned to meet Akane and Lulu-chan who were tasked with the sale of monster meat and materials at a predetermined spot.
「Hey, you’re way too late, Takumi.」
「Sorry, sorry. Did we make you wait a lot?」
「We just arrived nya.」
「H-hold on, Lulu!」
Although Akane complained as soon as she saw me, Lulu-chan was an honest child who didn’t lie.
「Really, Lulu......... Ah, Marnie and Laeva also arrived.」
Akane’s change of topic was easy to see.
「Have we kept you waiting, Master (Husband)?」
「Takumi-sama, we negotiated the prices with all our might.」
「No, we also just got here. And good job.」
Since we’ve also met up with Marnie and Laeva, everyone noisily checked out various stores and places.
The money from selling the monster meat and materials was distributed to the Aligerous Tribe, and after they were told to buy what they want, it was difficult to keep them from going astray. The entire village of the Aligerous Tribe was self-sufficient and had bartered, so it was inevitable that they had fun with shopping and it might not be possible to lead them anymore than this.
We promised to take them out again on the next break, and so, the preschool trip-like excursion ended.
