In that case, it wouldn’t be surprising that the doctors and scholars became slaves, right?

Hmm, come to think of it….

「Opika, Chicken-san gave me this.」

「Eh? From Chicken-san?」

My daughter received the envelope from me and immediately peed off the wax sela and began to read the contents.

I noticed that all the patients in the waiting room were looking at me with interest, probably because we’ve been making so much noise.

Feeling embarrassed, I bowed my head to everyone.

I felt like a country bumpkin. So embarrassing.

「Chicken-san said I could take today and tomorrow off. Father, mother, I’ll take you to all sorts of places.」

「Me too」

「Take me with you」

「Food」

「If you guys take the day off too, the hospital won’t be able to open. I’m going to change my clothes. Please wait for me.」

After reading the letter, she and her companions withdrew.

My wife, I, and our guide stood in the corner and waited, trying not to get in the way.

「How long has this hospital been around?」

「The building itself has been around for a long time but it only became a hospital since two weeks ago.」

「Eh? Two weeks ago?」

The guide’s words startled me so much that I let out a loud yell, again, attracting stares from all the people around.

I’m sorry.

「Master suddenly started insisting that we build a hospital and a day care center so we rushed to build them. This used to be an inn.」

「huh? So suddenly and yet it’s already this popular?」

「Well, we have a good reputation in this city.」

The guide, who said so smartly, briskly combed through her fuzzy hair, which is a characteristic of a sheepkin.

「I’m back〜, Areh? Why are you still here, Trolis?」

「It’s because of you. I had to take your parents to the inn.」

「Ah, is that so? Thank you.」

It seems like the guide and Opika were quite close.

I was relieved to see that the guide and Opika were getting along with each other.

「Anoo, if I may ask…..is it alright for you to have us stay in a place like this?」

「It’s okay. We have a few rooms that are always open for merchants from other cities. Chicken, the slave boss, was the one who order for this so there’s nothing to worry about.」

The guide said so with a smile.

「Is that so? Thank you very much.」

「Opika, make sure to thank Chicken-san properly later.」

「I know」

Opika sticks her thumb out from her fist and says so with a smile.

What does that mean?

Is that something popular in Torquiva?

-0-

The inn, which was not far from the hospital, was quite a neat little place and it had an unusual business practice of letting customers stay there cheaply in exchange for not providing any food.

No, there are many food shops around and most of them are owned by the Schenkers.

If they let their guests eat there, they can accommodate more guests without having to build a kitchen at the inn.

It might be quite reasonable.

Leaving our luggage in the lockable cupboard of the inn, my daughter and us, husband and wife, walked through the city as the sun began to set and went out for dinner.

「I know a place where you can eat a lot of Torquiva’s specialties. I’ll take you there.」

「Is that so? We had a lunch called hot borg.」

「Do you mean hot dog? No, no, not that. The specialty of this place is flour and wheat.」

「Ah, you mean bread, right? I wonder what bread tastes like in the bread basket. I’m looking forward to it.」

「I heard that the bread in the royal capital is so sweet that you could eat it as is and still fall off your cheeks.」

「It’s not bread but look forward to it.」
