The sky in the current world of Cappadocia was gloomy and depressing, ready for a storm at any time. The air was filled with a sour smell, making it difficult for people to breathe! When I opened my eyes, I saw the sky. The clouds moved slowly, and the chirping of birds came from somewhere. I got up. There was no pain from my body. I stood up and looked around. Mountains and grasslands expanded before my eyes. It felt a little like the scenery in the countryside. Was this the game world? I saw a big tree in the distance, and there seemed to be a road beside the tree.
[Anyway, as long as we follow the road, we should be able to meet the residents here, right?」
I made this judgment and walked towards the big tree in front of me. Finally, I saw a path. It's not that I'm wrong.
[Then, where should we go? But…"
I stood at the root of the big tree, wondering if I should go right or left. Hmm, if it only took an hour to reach the city by going right, but it took eight hours to go left, what should I do?……As I was thinking about this, the PIDIDIA in my inner pocket suddenly rang. I took it out and it showed
[Call from God.]
[Hello?]
[Oh, it's connected, it's connected.] Looks like you arrived safely.』
When I pressed the speaker to my ear, the voice of God came out. They had only been separated for a short while, but it sounded rather nostalgic.
[Is that so? It really helped me a lot. I happened to be lost.」
As expected. I could have sent you directly to the city, but it would have been troublesome if you had caused a commotion. That's why I sent you to a remote place, but doing so would have made you lose your way.』
[Yeah, yeah.]
I replied with a bitter smile. I really don't know where to go. After all, this isn't my hometown, and I don't have any friends living here.
" As long as you look at the map and walk forward, you can reach the city safely.』
[Okay, that's all for now.]
After I hung up, I operated the PIDIDI screen and started the map application. A map with me as the center appeared on the screen. A road extended beside me. It was the road under my feet. I changed the scale of the map. After walking along this road, there would be a city in the west. Er…Rethagan? This city was called Rethagan.
" Alright, let's head there."
I used the Compass app to confirm my location and began to walk towards the west. After walking for a while, I realized that my situation was quite bad. First of all, I have no food or water. Even if they reached the city, what would happen after that? I have no money. Even if he brought his wallet, he didn't know if it would be useful in this world. Logically speaking, it should not be possible to use it. Then, what should I do…As I walked forward and pondered in a daze, a voice came from behind me. I turned around and saw something coming at me from afar. That was…a carriage. This is the first time I've seen a carriage. There should be passengers inside…This is the first time I've come into contact with the residents since I arrived in the game world. What should I do? I can stop the carriage and ask them to give me a ride. This wasn't a bad idea, but in the end, I dismissed the idea. Why? As the carriage got closer and closer, I realized that it was a rather high-grade carriage. Its workmanship was gorgeous and solemn. There must be nobles or rich people sitting inside. If I stop this car, the people inside will come out and shout," I'm going to drag you to be beheaded."
That would be terrible. As the carriage drew close behind me, I stepped aside and hid.
The carriage in front of me drove past me, making a clicking sound and raising dust. I was glad that I didn't get into trouble. I walked back to the middle of the road and was about to continue when I realized that the carriage had stopped by the side of the road. [Sir! It's you!"
With a bang, the door of the carriage opened, and a white-haired gentleman with a thick beard walked out. He was wearing a unique scarf and cloak, and there was a sparkling rose brooch on his chest.
[What's wrong…?]
Seeing this gentleman walk towards me excitedly, I thought to myself,'Ah, we speak the same language,' and heaved a sigh of relief. The other party grabbed my shoulder and scanned my entire body. Eh, what was going on? Wasn't this situation not too good?
[You, where did you buy this dress?!]？」
[What?]
I opened my mouth in surprise, unable to understand what he was saying. The bearded gentleman didn't care. He circled behind me and then to my side, carefully examining my school uniform. " I've never seen such a design or such a sewing method before... How exactly... Hmm..."
I unconsciously understood. The other party seemed to think that this uniform was very rare. There probably wasn't such a costume in this world. In that case…
[Is this true?]
Hearing my suggestion, the bearded gentleman quickly took the bait.
[This dress was sold to me by a traveling merchant. If you want, I can sell it to you. "However, it's not very convenient to sell all my clothes. If you can prepare other clothes for me in the next city, that would be the best…"
I couldn't tell him that this was the clothes from the game world, so I could only think of an excuse at the last minute. It would be great if I could earn some money by selling this dress. This will also prevent me from attracting too much attention. It can be considered killing two birds with one stone.
"Alright! Get on the carriage. I'll take you to the next city. I'll prepare new clothes for you. After you change into them, you can sell them to me.」
[Deal.]
As for me, I enjoyed the scenery outside the carriage window. This was a world I had never seen before. From now on, this is the world I want to live in.
It had been three hours since I met Mr. Sanako, and the wobbly carriage had finally arrived at Resagan.
A soldier who seemed to be the city's gatekeeper greeted me and asked a few simple questions before immediately allowing me to enter the city. Judging from the attitude of the soldiers, Mr. Sanako seemed to be a famous figure.
"Get out of the car. We'll find your clothes here.」
[I don't understand...]
After Mr. Sanako brought me into the shop, a few shop assistants came to welcome us.
[Boss, you're back.]
I was a little surprised to hear what the shop assistants said.
[Boss?]
[This is my shop. Let's not talk about this for now. Go and change your clothes. Hey, someone, help him choose a suitable piece of clothing!」
[Oh? You, can you sell me the clothes below?」Was he a bandit?
The clothes and shoes that he prepared for me were very convenient and firm, so I had no complaints. I was wearing black pants, a white shirt, and a black jacket. They were not fancy and looked quite elegant. She wouldn't be eye-catching if she was dressed like this.
[So, how much do you want to sell me the clothes for? Of course, I won't haggle over every penny. How much do you want?」
"Even if you say so... I'm not clear about the market here, so I can't give you an exact amount. Of course, the higher the better, but…I'm actually penniless now.」
"I see…How pitiful…Alright, I'll give you ten gold coins."」
I had no idea how much ten gold coins were worth, so I could only nod in agreement.
[That's it then.]
"Alright! Just accept it."
With a crisp sound, the other party handed me ten gold coins. The gold coin was about the size of 500 yen, and it was carved with a lion-like embossed. This is all my property. I have to cherish it and use it.
[Speaking of which, is there a hostel in this city? I want to find a place to stay before sunset.」
"Go straight to the right on the road ahead and you'll see a hostel. They'll put up a sign that says 'Silver Moon,' and you'll know when you see it.」
Even if there was a signboard, I wouldn't be able to understand it…It's alright, I just need to ask as I walk. After all, I can communicate with them.
"I understand. I'll take my leave first.」
"Ah ah, if you buy any rare clothes, remember to bring them back.」
I said goodbye to Mr. Sanako and walked out of the shop. The sun was high up in the sky. I took out the PIDI from my inner pocket and turned it on to find that it was almost two in the afternoon.
[When I was sitting in the carriage earlier, I was wondering…I wonder if the time PIDIDIA gave me was correct…?]」
Judging from the position of the sun, there shouldn't be too much of an error.
I suddenly had an idea and opened the map application. The PIDIDI immediately displayed a map of the city. My current location and shop name were also marked on it. This way, I won't get lost. The location of the hostel, Silver Moon, was also clearly marked on the map. Speaking of which…
I turned to look at Mr. Sanako's clothing store.
I felt sorry for Mr. Sanako's naming sense as I walked towards the hostel.
After walking for a while, I saw the hotel's sign," Silver Moon." There was a new moon on the signboard, which was easy to understand. The exterior of the hostel was a three-story building made of red bricks and wood. The overall structure looked stable and sturdy.
[Welcome. Do you want to eat or stay?"
The eldest sister standing at the counter said. She looked energetic with her red hair and was quite suitable for a ponytail. He was about 20 years old.
"Uh, I want to stay. How much is it for one night?」
Two copper coins…I couldn't tell if this price was expensive or cheap. Forget it, it should be cheaper than gold coins, but I'm not sure how many copper coins a gold coin is worth.
Anyways, I took out a gold coin from my wallet and placed it on the counter. [How many nights can I stay like this?]
"You're still asking me…Of course it's fifty nights.」
[Fifty!?]
Eldest Sister's eyes hurt me so much, she seemed to be saying,
You don't know how to count."
[So? How long are you staying?"
" Uh, then I'll stay for a month."
[Okay.] A month? That's great. There aren't many customers recently. Thank you. We just ran out of silver coins, so I'll give you copper coins instead.」
Big sister took a gold coin and gave me forty copper coins in change. From the 60 copper coins she had taken, it turned out that a month here was also 30 days. It was the same as the previous world.
Eldest Sister took out something like a register of lodgings from the counter, spread it out in front of me, and handed me an ink-dipped quill.
[Please sign here.]
"Ah... I'm sorry, I can't write. Could you please sign for me?」
" My name is Minano, Minano Hikichi."
[Nanye? Your name is really rare."
"No, my name is Yan Yi. Nanye is my surname…It's our family's surname.」
[I see. Your name and surname are reversed.] Are you from Shengdu?"
[Ah…you're right.]
I didn't know what kind of place Sheng Du was, but it would be too troublesome to continue talking about it, so I didn't refute her. I'll confirm the map later.
"This is the room key. Be careful not to drop it. Your room is at the innermost part of the third floor. That's the room with the most sunlight. The bathroom was on the first floor, and the dining room was here. By the way, do you want to have lunch now?」
[Ah, please.] I haven't eaten since this morning…"" Then I'll make you some light food. You can go confirm your room first and rest for a while.」
I took the key, climbed up the stairs, and opened the door to the innermost room on the third floor. The room was about three square meters in size and was furnished with a bed, a table, and a cupboard. After opening the front window, he could see the road in front of the hostel. The scenery was really good. A group of children ran over while playing.
Satisfied, I locked the door and walked down the stairs.
[Sorry to keep you waiting. The dishes are ready.]
After I sat down at a certain table in the restaurant, the other party brought me something that looked like a sandwich, soup, and salad. Although the bread was a little hard, the taste of the game world was still satisfying and delicious. I ate until I was upside down. So, what should he do next?
I'll be staying here for a while, so I'll take a look at the city.
[I'm going for a walk in town.]
" Alright, be careful on the road."
Under the watchful eyes of the hostel's older sister (her name seemed to be Miss Meixia), I headed to town for a walk.
After all, this was the downtown area of the game world. The items that I could see were all quite rare, and they piqued my interest. I looked around, my eyes wandering. When I found people looking at me coldly and thinking that I was very suspicious, I was shocked and adjusted my mood. However, it did not take long for me to become a suspicious person whose eyes were wandering. It was like an infinite loop. I can't go on like this.
"I have to find a way to make money first. Since I want to survive in this world, I need money.」
I didn't expect to fall to the point of looking for a job so quickly. It would be great if I had any special skills…The subject I was best at in school was history…Even if I knew the history of other worlds, it wouldn't be useful here.
Other than that, my only skill is playing an instrument. If only there was a piano in this world. Although my technique isn't perfect.
[Hmm?]
What was going on? There was a commotion coming from the alley beside the main road. I heard people arguing intermittently.
[... Let's go over and take a look.]
Thus, I walked into the alley.
After turning into the alley and entering the narrow road, four men and women were arguing at the end of the road.
On one side were two men, and on the other side were two girls. No matter which one of the men looked like a hooligan, the two girls looked very cute.
The girls should be around my age or younger than me. Speaking of which, they looked very similar…or should I say exactly the same. Were they twins? Although the length of their eyes and hair were different, both of them had silver hair.
They were all wearing black tops and white blouses. The long-haired girl was wearing pants and black knee-length stockings, while the short-haired girl was wearing a wavy skirt and black tights. From this point, it was obvious that one of them walked the lively route, while the other walked the quiet route.
[This is different from what we agreed on! The price should be one gold coin!" The long-haired girl roared at the men. The men sneered contemptuously. One of them was holding something that looked like antlers. It seemed to be made of shiny glass.
[What are you talking about?] I did say that I would use a gold coin to buy this crystal antler. However, that was under the premise that the antlers were not defective. Look for yourself, isn't there a scar here? That's why I paid for it. Please accept this silver coin."
A silver coin made a crisp sound and rolled at the girls 'feet. [This small injury can't be considered a defective product! You guys have been…!」
The long-haired girl glared at the men with hatred. The short-haired girl hiding behind her also bit her lip in frustration.
"... I've had enough. I don't want money. Give me back the horn."
The long-haired girl took a step forward. She clenched her fists tightly, and on her fists was a huge vambrace that did not match the girl's appearance.
[Aiya, that won't do. This antler is already our possession. We won't hand it over to your family..."
[Ah? What are you trying to do? Why are you looking for us?" [No, I'm looking for her.]
[Eh? Me?"
I glared at my man, ignoring his threats, and said to the long-haired girl behind him,
[Can I buy your antlers with one gold coin?]」
She listened to me blankly. After a while, the girl seemed to understand my suggestion and smiled.
[I'll sell you!]
"What nonsense are you guys spouting! This is already ours-"
The moment the man raised the crystal antler, it shattered with a loud bang. The stone I threw hit it accurately.
[What…!?] What are you doing!"
" It's already mine. I can do whatever I want. Ah, I'll pay obediently."
[Bastard!]
This must be the effect of the Heavenly God strengthening my body. I bent down and swept my foot across the man's leg. When the man fell backward, my fist immediately hit his body. [Oh…!]
The man lost consciousness just like that. The martial arts techniques I learned from grandpa came in handy.
When I turned around, I discovered that another man was fighting with the long-haired girl. Although the man was waving his hand axe, it was repeatedly blocked by the long-haired girl's vambrace. He was unable to give her a decisive blow. Soon, the girl's right hook approached the man like lightning and exploded on his face. The man rolled his eyes and fell to the ground. Her movements were really brilliant.
Forget it, there was nothing he could do now. I originally only wanted to destroy the cause of the dispute between the two sides. It seems that my knowledge is shallow. I took out a gold coin from my wallet and handed it to the long-haired girl.
[Here, one gold coin as promised.]
[I was the one who broke it. You don't have to mind. Take it.]」[Then…I won't stand on ceremony.]」
After the long-haired girl finished speaking, she took the gold coin with her arm. [Thank you for saving me. I'm Elsa Hill Aeska, and this is my twin sister, Linz Hill Aeska.」
[... Thank you very much.]
[I am Minano Hikichi.] Ah, Yanichi is my name."
"Hey, your name and surname are reversed. Are you from Sheng Du?」[Ah…Yes, that's right.]
Their reaction was the same as Miss Miyatsu at the hostel, so I gave the same answer. Hmm, what kind of country was Shengdu? I really want to know.
Elsa said as he drank his juice. Rather than this city, it would be more appropriate to call it this world.
In the end, the three of them had dinner together. Everyone chatted while tasting the dinner that Miss Miyatsu cooked. Now, we are enjoying our after-meal tea.
"We only sent the crystal antlers here after we accepted their request. He did not expect to encounter such an outrageous thing. But I felt a little suspicious from the start.」
"... That's why I'm against you taking on this commission... Sister doesn't even listen to me..."
The younger sister, Lyndsay, glared at her older sister, Elsa, as if she was reprimanding her. A rampaging elder sister matched with a steady and sensible younger sister. Elsa seemed to be the bold and fearless type, while Lyndsey was the shy type.
[Why did you guys accept the commission from those guys?」
I tried to ask the question in my heart. I couldn't understand why they would trade with those suspicious guys.
Elsa sighed and lowered his eyes.
[Lyndsey, let's take this opportunity to log into the guild.」
"I think it's better this way too…Safety is the most important thing. We'll log in tomorrow.」
[Can I go with you tomorrow? I also want to log in to the guild."
"Alright, let's go together tomorrow.」
[Well…let's go together.]
The two of them quickly agreed. As long as I log into the guild and accept missions, I can earn some money to spend. This way, I might be able to lay the foundation for living in this world.
On this day, after saying goodnight to the two of them, I returned to my room. Today was finally over. So many things had happened.
He came to the game world, sold his clothes, stayed in a hotel, helped a girl, and even fought with someone. This day was too fulfilling.
In short, I decided to record everything that happened today in PIDIDIA as a diary. I browsed through the intelligence website and read about what happened in the other world. Oh, Miami won. Sigh, that band is going to disband…What a pity. (Editor's note: The Miami team referred to the American men's professional basketball team.）
I turned off my PIDIDlia and crawled under the covers. Tomorrow, I'll be going to the guild to log in. What kind of place will that be…As I thought about this, sleepiness quickly came over me and I fell asleep. After the alarm clock program installed in PIDIDI rang, I slowly climbed out of bed.
After washing up, I went downstairs to the dining room. Elsa and Linz had already woken up and were having breakfast. After I sat down, Miss Miyatsu brought me breakfast. It was bread, ham and eggs, vegetable soup, and tomato salad. I had a taste of the most delicious dishes in the morning.
After breakfast, the three of us quickly headed to the guild. The guild was located near the city center, and that area was extremely lively.
The first floor of the guild was a restaurant, and the atmosphere was much brighter than I had imagined. I originally thought that it would be a tavern where boorish men gathered, but it seems that I was worried for nothing. After I walked to the counter, the service lady gave me a friendly smile.
[Sorry, I want to log into the guild.」
[Yes, there are three people in total.]
[Is this your first time logging into a guild? If that is the case, I can give you a simple explanation.」
The guild's basic job is to introduce the client's job to us and collect the intermediary fee.
The jobs were graded according to their difficulty, and those with lower grades could not take on higher-grade jobs. However, as long as more than half of the people in the team were of a higher rank, even if there were people with lower ranks among them, they could still take on high-level jobs.
After completing the mission, one could receive the reward. However, if the mission failed, he would have to pay a penalty. Well, he had to choose his job carefully.
If you repeatedly mess up the mission, the guild will judge that your work quality is not good and will cancel your login as a punishment. This way, no matter which city the guild was from, they would not be able to log in again.
Other than that, she also explained other rules. For example, if he did not accept any commission for five consecutive years, the registration would be invalid. Cannot accept multiple missions at the same time; When accepting a crusade mission, if the adventurer hunts outside the area specified in the letter of authorization, it will not be counted; In principle, the guild would not interfere in the private disputes between adventurers. If the dispute would damage the guild's interests, it would be another matter…
[Understood.]
The lady at the counter handed us three pieces of paper, but I couldn't understand what was written on them. After I told the two of them about it, she helped me fill out the form. Hmm…It was indeed inconvenient not to read and write.
After the counter lady took the registration form, she covered the black card on the form and muttered some kind of spell. Then she took out a small pin and asked us to stain the cards with our blood.
We followed her instructions and pierced our fingers with a pin to touch the card. White text slowly appeared on the card…but I still couldn't understand what it meant…
"To prevent forgery, this card is enchanted. If someone else touched the guild card, the card would turn gray after ten seconds. If you lose your card, please contact the guild as far away as possible. We will reissue the card, but you will have to pay a fee.」
The lady at the counter took my card. Not long after, the black card turned gray. When I touched the card again, it immediately turned black again. What a powerful mechanism. Why was it like this? [The login is complete. There's a letter of authorization on the bulletin board. After confirming the mission you want to take on, please submit an application to us.」
Else and Lyndsay thought as they studied the letters of authorization. As for me…
If he didn't understand the mission content, he wouldn't be able to take on the job. In the future, he would use the night to study hard.
"Look, look, how's this mission? The reward is also not bad. It's very suitable to be the first mission, right?」
"... Hmm, I think it's not bad. Mr. Yan Yi, what do you think?" "... I'm sorry, I don't understand what's written on it at all.」
Else had been pointing excitedly at the paper pasted on the bulletin board, but now his fingers drooped weakly. Uh, oh no.
"... Uh, this mission is to fight against the magical beasts in the East Forest. The demonic beasts were called One-Horned Wolves, and there were five of them. They are not very powerful…so I think we have a way to deal with them. Ah, the reward is eighteen copper coins."
For the illiterate me, she stuttered as she read the power of attorney. 18 copper coins…If the three of them split it, each of them would get 6 copper coins. It was equivalent to three days of accommodation, which was indeed not bad.
[I'll choose this one.]
" Alright, I'll go to the counter to apply."
Else tore off the paper that recorded the mission and went to the counter to complete the acceptance procedures. As its name suggested, a horned wolf seemed to be a wolf with horns on its head. I was a little uneasy, not knowing if I could successfully defeat it.
…It seemed strange?
[... What's wrong?]
