"Cuck!"
"Gaw!"
"... what are you doing, Bowes"
As I conduct a mysterious attack of staring at each other with the children peeking out of the alley, hurry up! and Ekla bass her feathers and Klondine bashes my feet. A stall old man who looks at it and makes a frightened voice.
"Grandma. What about the kids at that alley?
When he skewers the Eklas, Ekla eats the skewers cleverly with his forefoot, and Krondine eats them on his left foot so as not to get to the ground. In the meantime, when I hear about the children, Grandma looks sinister. Is there a reason?
"Those guys are war orphans. These are the ones whose parents died in this war. He was conscripted into this war, or driven out to defend himself when soldiers arrived in the last realm, and he didn't come back."
……
Right. We were happy to win the war, but some of them were harmed. You have 5.6 people just to be here right now. Ages vary. There will be more.
"Granny, give those kids skewers too"
"Is that good? It's not like we know each other, is it?
"I don't mind. What you're doing is just hypocrisy, but I'm not gonna do it. Rika is better. And your grandma, too, right?
The moment Grandma saw the children, she figured out what they were. Maybe even the leftovers are up. Months have passed since the war ended. Yet the children are thinly dirty, but no child is thin and vulnerable to gullibility. Maybe he's just not here.
Besides, when you listen to me and Grandma calls the kids, they run unawary of toting them. I guess I know the kids will be there too.
"Hey, Bowes. They say these bows will pay for the skewers! Here, eat!"
"Wow!!
The kids get a grilled skewer from Grandma and cheek first. Yeah, yeah, kids need to eat and grow up. I'm kids at my age, too. You're almost thirty for your mental age, aren't you?... Let's stop thinking. Now it's 13, because it's almost 14.
I'm going to talk to my grandma, sideways with the kids cheeking the skewers. Apparently, my grandfather heard about it, but he said that there are fewer orphans in this territory than there are in other territories.
The reason is that the former lord fled early and it wasn't much of a fight. I can't say if that's good or bad, but it would be better when it comes to having fewer orphans.
"Is the merchant here?
"You hardly ever come. The Regalia Empire was in a state of armistice with various countries, wasn't it? Because of that, not many merchants come from other countries. They were mostly merchants within the Regalia Empire, but they also fled within the present empire. All the merchants left are small shops."
They're making up for the food now with animals and demons that adventurers have been crusading over. Some of those adventurers are also participating in the war and reducing their numbers, so they say they are also coming in less than before.
"With that said, don't look at Bowes the first time. You're here today?
"Hmm? Oh. A deputy from the kingdom of Nanol is here today. I'm here about it."
"Oh, now that I'm king of the kingdom of Nanol, I'm deputizing for it. Rumor has it, she's a princess, isn't she? I don't know where I can trust you more than a lord."
Gahaha and laughing old man. If they noticed, the kids had finished skewering and were hanging out with Ekla and the others....... Klondine is very dear. He's threatening me. A mystery.
The kids, who enjoyed playing to some extent, went home to themselves. It seems that children without parents, even when they say home, are just gathered in empty houses.
My grandma was sneaking around and giving her extra for the kids left in the house. What do you care about this guy?
Then we walk the city off the street. There were more problems with orphans and I was wondering what to do, but I need to discuss this with Alexia.
Then it's a problem that the merchants don't come. With a little more security, merchants would come from other countries, but by then the food would be exhausted.
It'll take a while to get you to come from Nanol. I figured it'd be quicker to get a Legalian merchant to come by at a distance. I can't talk about not going to the Regalia Empire either, so I'm putting it on hold.
Looking at the city and walking with that in mind, I saw a larger building than the other shops. Is that sign where the sword and shield intersect an Adventurer Guild? There must be a rabbi inside.
Did Ekla find that out, too? Fingering at the Adventurer Guild while ringing "Curly ~". Klondine also said to it, "Gaw!" He replies and rushes out. Not at all, those guys.
I'll follow the two of them into the Adventurer Alliance. The atmosphere is idle and lonely inside. I only see the adventurer and the upstairs tavern is quiet.
The Alliance staff only counts. That's not much to ask. Right there.
"Did the kid even come to get you out on a request?
and a tough skinhead guy talking to me. I thought you were an adventurer for a moment, but if you looked at the outfit, you were wearing guild clothes, so I guess you're an guild employee. Ex adventurer or something.
"No. Those kids came in, so I followed them."
I point to Krondine, who strolls magnificently through the guild, and Ekla, who rides on its back.
"Is that... a dragon? How dare you take me, kid?"
A tough guy looks at me with a very surprised look on his face. That face is pretty scary, too.
"He's one of mine. And more importantly, there wasn't a rabbi woman here?
"Rabbi?... Oh, you did come. With some kind of gotten guy. Those two would already be home. What could I do for you?
"No. It was something I knew. I said I'd work here."
"Oh, you mean that. I'm sorry, but I let you say no. As you can see, there are fewer requests and fewer adventurers. I don't have any money to hire. Except for the guild clerk who's here right now, he's getting some rest. The Alliance Master is running away with the Lords, and it's like I'm representing him."
Sure. Then you can't hire him. Hmm. I think I'll ask Mr. Rabbi to help me with my affairs. I was a receptionist, so I would be able to.
"Okay, excuse me. Ecla, Klondine. I'm coming!"
"Cui!"
"Gaw!"
We left the Adventurer Alliance behind, took a little look around the city, and then headed back to the mansion. Because the city was quite large and I couldn't see it all, so I thought I'd look around in a few days.
And five days after we arrived in the kingdom, a messenger came from the Regalia Empire.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
