Morning next day is good. The light breeze made the weather pleasant.

I went out into the city.

The breakfast was very sumptuous as the inn was a purveyor of the transport guild. It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten so much. The thickly sliced ham was especially good.

It is said that meat and cheese are widely eaten in Gartland. They are very tasty but it makes me sick to my stomach.

Well, if it was vegetables, I could eat as much as I wanted. As long as there is land.

「Yes, land.」

Riito came to the central district of the Guild Autonomous Region.

The bureau of land management is in the central district. It is a public institution that sells and leases land managed by the guilds in the lower continent.

The bureau of land management is a big building.

When I passed through the iron door, which was five times taller than me, a tired middle-aged man showed me the way saying “the reception desk is this way”.

Yeah, he seems to be a kind man.

「Can I help you?」

「Yeah, uh, well, actually, I’m here for….」

It’s a big purchase.

Perhaps the biggest purchase in my life. Both my previous and the present combined.

Thinking about it makes me nervous. I took a deep breath to calm down.

「What is it, young master? You are fidgety….ah, could it be」

「Y-yes!」

「You want to pee?」

「No, sir!」

Why do people from the Guild Autonomous Region are so quick to assume that other people are holding their pee? At least he didn’t ask me if I wanted to take a dump like the other one.

「A dump?」

「No, not at all!」

My loud voice reverberated more than expected.

I had to start all over again.

「Cough!」

Riito placed his leather bag, which he had carefully brought with him and served as his wallet, on the desk.

The bag contains his reward from the recent war and his salary as a court mage.

「Eh?」

「I want to buy some land.」

「Eh? Land?」

「Yes.」

In a business meeting like this, you have to be dignified.

I slowly raise my index finger.

「I heard that in Gartland, you are free to buy and sell land on the lower continent.」

「Yes, that is true but….what guild do you belong to?」

「I’m not in a guild.」

「Well, then there will only be a limited number of places around Gartland that you can buy.」

I guess this means that guild members have priority trading rights.
