230 225 Stories Arriving in Hatau Village

Every time the wind blows, the temperature is taken away.

"Are you all right?

Mr. Druid asks me worried if I was seen trembling when the wind blew.

I nod once because it is cold when I open my mouth.

"We'll be in the village of Hathau in a little while. Come on."

Get to the village of Hatau earlier than planned.

but the cold wave came quite a bit earlier than planned.

I would still be able to afford about a month if it were usual.

Harassment!

Speed up your legs complaining in the cold wind in your heart.

Nevertheless, I really appreciate Ciel and Sola hunting for the goose.

The way I've cooled down over the past few days is life-threatening, so I keep walking without sleeping for about three days.

There's nothing I can do to get attacked by a sleeper, but my body is light.

When you eat goose meat, tiredness disappears softly and your body lightens.

So I could keep up the speed even if I kept walking.

I'm just so sleepy.

I'm half asleep, my eyes are going to close even as I walk.

I want to go to Hatau village and sleep as much as I want in the inn as soon as possible.

"Oh, is that it?

At the end of your gaze, you can see the gate.

"Oh, I see you've reached the village of Hathau."

There was relief in Mr. Druid's face.

I'm sure I'm the same.

Tell them you've reached the village of Hatau against the bag you raised from your shoulder.

"Wait there a little longer."

The bag vibrates slightly.

Flem will be asleep, so maybe Sola or Ciel.

Looks like the gatekeeper confirmed who we are, and he opens the gate.

"Hello"

When I look at her face in surprise at the gatekeeper's voice, she is a woman.

You've never seen a female vigilante before.

It's just hard to tell from your appearance that you're a woman because of your anti-cold outfit.

"Thanks, I'm planning on going over the winter in the village of Hatau, is that ok?

Mr. Druid puts out a card for a commercial guild, so I rush out the card, too.

"I will confirm, please put your card here"

There's something magic on the desk next to the gate.

This is the first item I've seen.

When Mr. Druid puts the card on, it turns green.

"What's your name?

"It's a Druid."

When he answers, the green flashes.

"Thank you. And your daughter."

Oh, even your daughter.

That's kind of embarrassing.

And I just stretched my hair a little bit, and the boy couldn't see me at all.

Has it changed that much?

"Regards"

Put the card you have on the magic item.

Mr. Druid was similarly green in colour and flashed when he answered his name.

"You don't seem to have a problem, welcome to the village of Hatau. Then this will be your long-term permit. I've registered my name, so no one else can use it. Please note."

A plate with a green line in the white is passed.

"Thank you"

Look me in the eye and thank me, then bow your head.

The female gatekeeper gave her a slightly surprised look and then laughed beautifully.

"Mr. Druid, Mr. Ivy. Have you decided on the accommodation?

"No, not yet. I'm going to look for it."

"Are there any accommodation conditions?

"With Ivy, you're an intermediate level where parents and children can stay safely"

"Then there is the inn that says' Ayapo 'when you turn left at the corner of the fifth boulevard. She's a female shopkeeper and the inn is beautiful, and her husband is a former adventurer and a little strong, but you can stay in peace for that."

"Really? Thanks for the good info. I'll go quick. Oh, do you have a bath?

"Absolutely."

"Thank you. Bye."

"Thank you"

This gatekeeper, he's a very good man.

I got some information about the inn I was going to look for.

Bow deeply and aim for an inn with Mr. Druid.

"You were a good man."

"Oh, well, I'm sure Ivy handled it well, so she told me."

My response?

Did you do something?

... think, but I can't think of anything.

Or sleepy.

Just a little later, come on, me!

"And you're sleepy."

"Yes, I want to sleep right away"

"Take a bath as soon as you get to the inn."

"What, I want to sleep"

"It's better to warm up and then go to sleep."

"Really?

"... maybe?

"Mr. Druid, maybe."

"No, like someone was saying that, you know, you feel that?

Which one?

But my body is definitely very cold.

Cold and a little headache.

It would be better if you warmed up in the bath and then went to bed.

"Let's warm up in the bath and go to bed fast. But you're worried about sleeping in the bath."

"You can say that. Nevertheless, if you had prepared your winter gear a little better, you wouldn't have had to think this cold. Sorry."

"No, we both thought about it and prepared it, so there's no need to apologize."

I didn't think it would get so cold this time of year.

"If you sleep slowly in the inn, you'll be sourcing a winter cape or coat."

"Yeah."

Turn left at the fifth corner you were taught.

Sweeteners and relatively quiet streets lined with clothes shop signs.

"That's it."

When I look at the one Mr. Druid points to, the letter 'Ayapo' appears on the sign.

And a bit of a strange name.

Does that make any sense?

Open the door of 'Ayapo' and go inside.

Beautiful inn with a woody feel.

The gatekeeper only recommends it.

"There you are."

Looking over the room, a woman comes through the back of the door.

When you were in your 50s?

Someone whose gentle smile feels warm somehow.

Is this the shopkeeper?

"During the winter, would you like to rent a room for two, is it available?

"Yeah, I'm free. About two months during the winter?

"It could be about two and a half months since I can tell the cold is completely out."

"Okay. What about breakfast and dinner?

"Breakfast, please. Can I decide whether to ask for dinner on the same day? And I'd like you to lend me a cooking place."

"I understand the breakfast. If you have dinner, you can prepare it if you say so that morning. And I have a free-to-use cooking area upstairs, so feel free to use it. But be sure to keep the fire under control."

"Yes, and it's amazing to create a cooking area upstairs"

"I made it in the recent fashion. hahahaha"

Cooking place upstairs or something. I'm looking forward to it.

"How much will it cost? Are there any more terms to be discounted?

"Well, it's just breakfast in a room for two, so it's two and a half months for six ladals a month, and it's gonna be 15."

15 Ladals.

Fifteen gold coins?

Is it a decision here because it's in the budget?

"Ivy, can I stay here?

"Yeah."

"Thank you for two and a half months."

"Welcome. That's right. That was the terms of the discount. Fire Magic and Water Magic Level 5 + 5 Gidals per Demon Stone."

5 Gidals for 1 Demon Stone of Level 5 or higher?

You're gonna give me a lot of discount.

"Is it 5 gidals per demon stone? Isn't it a little expensive?

"It is! The cave, which was heavily picked with demon stones, collapsed for some reason. Then the Demon Stone just soars, it's really a headache problem! Besides, during the winter months, adventurers don't pick up demon stones."

Store owner who answers Mr. Druid's question excitedly.

I was surprised because my voice suddenly grew louder.

"What are you fussing about?

A strong man comes from the back to the store owner's voice.

Is that the former adventurer's husband Mr. Gatekeeper told you about?

Sure, it's a little strong, but I'm not under the impression that I'd say I'm that scared of anything I've ever met.

However, the three wounds on my face look a little painful.

"Don't make a scene in front of the customers. You done with the process?

"... yeah, it's over"

Mr. Druid smiles bitterly at the store owner's answer.

"Excuse me. I haven't processed anything yet."

"Hey."

"Oh, could it have been yet? I'm sorry. Uh, can you show me your name and anything else I can prove?

"Yes."

Looks like a bit of a quiet shopkeeper.

The process is completed immediately and the room is at the back of the second floor.

The store owner said it seems to be the most recommended room.

Looking forward to it, but for now I want to go straight to the bath and sleep.

Really limiting.
