“Oh!”
When we enter the city through the gate, I involuntarily raise a voice of admiration at the sight spreading in front of me.
“Whoa! Cat ears!? Tha,that’s stupid……!”
I saw a few people with cat ears among the crowd who were going around the city.
There is an existence of a cat-eared beastman here. It, won’t be long before I see cat ears maid.
“Weell…… There are so many different people.”
Of course, besides the cat, there are various beastmen.
I knew it base on knowledge, but when I actually see it, I’m impressed.
While observing the area restlessly, Saria happily calls out to me.
“Seiichi, look! They’re selling something!”
There was a stall in the direction that Saria was pointing to, which was making things like yakisoba.
“Oh. Speaking of which, we didn’t have a decent meal during the journey ……”
Both I and Saria only had the food I got from Sheep, so we only ate simple dishes.
Now that I came in town in this manner, I’d like to have some seasonings and cook authentic dishes. I can’t cook though.
When I was thinking about that, I realized something.
“…… A’re …… a black-haired person ……. there’s none?”
I lightly look around, but I can’t find a single person with the same black hair as me.
“Eh?…… That’s true. No one has the same hair color as Seiichi.”
It seems that Saria heard my mutter, and she said so.
…… Maybe, black-haired humans are rare in this world.
That’s because most of the school guys who were summoned in a different way than me have dark hair, so I might be treated as one of the heroes. …… …… Well, it’s just feels like I’m being overly self-conscious.
Anyway, if I was told that I was one of the heroes, I’ll be thrown out onto the battlefield right away. The reason why the guys from the school were summoned was to subdue the Demon King.
Ah, but I casually gave my name to Claude ……
The name Seiichi should be rare in this world, though. Considering that there was no noise for it, it may have seemed like “it’s an unusual name”.
There are a lot of things that bothers me, but in the end, the most worrying thing is Kenji and the others. I think they’re okay, but ……. for now, let’s explore somethings like a rumor about the summoned heroes. They may know something.
It may be worth it.
“However…… I can’t take off my robe because the war may slip on me.”
“Why?”
“Well …… there were various things.”
After saying the appropriate thing to Saria’s question, I think for a while.
First, about the skill 『Camouflage』.
Probably, the first 『Camouflage』 is to disguise only the appearance, so it was only effective enough to let the other party be alert.
That’s why, if I imitate a really strong guy, they would be able to see my ability base on my atmosphere. If I ranked up, and even my atmosphere can be misrepresented…… It’ll be such a point.
Hmmm…… if this prediction of mine became true …… it’ll be a lot of trouble.
It might have been better now that I had disguised my appearance as well. However, I don’t know if my hair will change to blonde hair ……
When I was thinking about this alone, Saria pulled my hand.
“Nn …… what’s wrong?”
“What’s wrong, not! How long are you going to stand here?”
“Ah”
I noticed it for the first time when Saria said so. We haven’t moved at all since we left the gate.
People were overtaking us more and more from behind, but we would have been too much of a hindrance.
“……. I’m sorry, let’s go”
“Yeah!”
As soon as I started walking, I ask Saria who is walking next to me.
“Come to think of it, do you want to buy food from the street stalls?”
“Hmmm…… I’m a little hungry …… I’ll eat!”
“Alright!”
Then, we went around the stalls together, and searched for what we wanted to eat.
“It’s very lively.”
“It’s true. Everyone is smiling!”
Happy somewhere, Saria said so. In fact, all the people who went to the city were smiling.
Looking around like that, I found that many people were looking at Saria. Most of them were men, but some of them were women, and they all had an ecstatic expression when they saw Saria.
However, when they saw me next to that Saria, most of them have a puzzled expression on their faces.
Well, Saria is cute without any complaint right now. If there was a guy in robe wearing a hood next to Saria, then it would be suspicious.
But let me tell you one thing. Especially for men, listen carefully. –––– Saria is a gorilla.
While giving them advice in my heart that I didn’t give to anyone, I said what I thought honestly.
“Is this the case only in this city, or is it in the whole country …… Either way, it’s good that everyone is smiling.”
“Indeed!”
Being in a vibrant city, it naturally makes us happy.
In the knowledge of Zeanos, this place was not named Terviel, so the name of the country may have changed, too. I wonder what kind of country name is that.
“……Nn? Is that …… a church?”
When I was thinking about that, I suddenly see a building in my sight. There was a church there that seemed to have appeared in a picture book based on blue and white.
“I wonder what is its religion ……”
I was a little bit bothered, but it’s not very important, so let’s just pass through it.
Besides, I could see a big castle as it was, calling this place the Royal capital, and I was a little excited with Saria.
After a while, Saria found the food that she wants to eat, and I bought it.
“Uwah~! It looks delicious!”
What I bought, was something like fried chicken. However, the meat used is by no means chicken.
It seems to be a kind of monster called 『Abuuk』. It’s not a chicken, it’s a monster, I believe? In this place, it’s major.
We who bought the same thing, eat while walking.
As a result of throwing it in my mouth, I did not comprehend the taste due to its excessive heat, but it was very delicious if I ate it a little cold.
After eating the fried chicken, we moved to our destination.
“Hmm~…… in Claude’s story, it should be around here ……”
“I wonder what kind of place it is~”
The destination we aim, is the guild.
However, Claude’s reaction is still stuck in me, and I feel a very uneasy feeling. What kind of place is it……
When we walked along the road that Claude taught me, we eventually arrived at one building.
“Is this …… the place?”
“Yes, I think it probably is.”
In front of our eyes, there was a red roof building with a signboard of a sword and a shield on it.
By the way, in addition to the sword and shield mark on the signboard, in the letters of this world, it was written firmly the word guild. It’s a two-story building, and it’s quite big.
It’s a double-opening door made of wood, and it feels like anyone can feel free to enter it, but……
“…… I’m incredibly scared”
When I see the building in front of me now, I suddenly flinch.
To my eyes, the guild’s beautiful building does not look like caves inhabited by monsters. I can’t hear it well, but I can hear some screams from the inside ……
But we can’t stand at the entrance forever. Even if we enter, it’s all about sending Saria into a potentially dangerous guild before me.
When I took a deep breath, I decided to open the guild door.
“Look, look, look! At this fucking pig! Bark with your vulgar voice!”
“More ……hit me moreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”
I silently closed the guild door.
“……”
As I walk away from the guild a little, I check the name written on the signboard of the building again.
“……… Yup, it’s exactly the guild.”
That’s strange…… when I entered the guild, a woman in bondage, tied up an old man who is dressed in leather armor, and I saw her whipping him with my own eyes, but ……
…… That’s not true. Guilds are organizations that accomplish various quests and earn money. It’s by no means not a place for perverts at all!
I forced myself to tell myself that, and open the guild door again.
However, the woman in bondage figure was still trampling on the filthy old man.
“Haa, haa ……! Step on me with those shoes!”
“『Step on me』, you said? Have you mistaken that it’s 『Please step on me』?”
“Uughhh!”
As I turn elsewhere, there’s a case of a bloodshot man swinging his chair and rampaging.
“I don’t care what it is…… let me break thingssssssssssss!”
“Again, that Grando guy is rampaging? You, stop him.”
“Hah? I’m busy updating the beautiful girl illustration book of this City!”
Also, as I look at another place, there were men who cheerfully greeted each other without worrying about such a scene intentionally.
“Oh! Slan-shi! Are you going out today?”
“Yes. It’s a perfect weather for exposure! I’m going to get a little naked around the market.”
“I see……. I was thinking of protecting little girls from the shadows in the square. I’d like to get closer to them if possible ……”
“Hahaha! It’s as usual!”
“Well, anyway, don’t be taken care by the soldier-sans, do your best together!”
“That’s right! If we’re being indebted by the soldier-sans every time, then it’s a gentleman’s disgrace!”
I silently closed the guild door again.
…………
“–––– Aren’t they just a group of pervertsssssssssssssssssss!”
When I realized it, this was a place with a lot of people, I forgot that and yelled out.
“Hey…… Eeh!? No no no no no! No good! There’s only perverts!?”
It’s dangerous you know!? Just a quick look around I saw S and M guys. A man with a dangerous atmosphere and a pure pervert. I found a lolicon bastard in less than a minute and a flasher!?
When it came to the flasher and lolicon, they made criminal-like remarks!? They said they were handled by the soldiers every time!?
“What’s going on? It’s so noisy……”
Saria looks at me with worried eyes.
The ordinary people around me were also looking at me as if they were looking at a strange thing.
However, the building behind us –––– when they turn their eyes to it, with an expression that seemed to be convinced of something, they ignored me and passed away.
…… Say what!? I was treated as something that is the same with the people there!? I’m not such a pervert!?
“Ah…… I now understand what Claude meant……”
If I say that I want to register in such a pervert group, it’s right to stop me, normally……
“Hey hey, we won’t enter?”
“……Yup. Let’s stop “
Saria pulls my robe and asks so, but I answered so, with all my might.
I can’t put Saria in a place like this. Absolutely not.
“Unfortunately, let’s get an ID issued in another method.”
“Eh? Why?”
“Anyway, it’s not good. There are various outs.”
“?”
I believe I saw Saria tilts her head cutely. I can’t possibly put Saria in such a pervert group!
“Anyway, let’s move. So, to a new job ––––“
“That’s unneedeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!”
When I said that, my voice was suddenly blocked by someone’s loud voice.
Suddenly being surprised, we turned to the direction in which we heard the voice.
Then, with a boomerang pants that’s put on generously and exposed dark skin, a big man with muscular structure stood. It’s full of various things to tsukkomi, but for the time being, a word.
“………… Who?”
Then, the big man in front of me, showed his white teeth broadly grinning, and spread his arms.
“I am the head of the guild in this Terviel! In other words, I’m the Guild Master Gassur Clute! Feel free to call me a Gassur!”
When he finished naming himself that way, he bent his open arms, and emphasized his biceps.
Gassur has a face that can be said that he is in his late 40s, and a refreshing smile was surprisingly visible in his figure.
I’m sorry for such Gassur, but let me make a quip first.
“–––– Why are you nakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!”
There are really only perverts!? In this Guild!
I mean, what does that boomerang pants mean!? The full-face helmet prepared by Sheep, I can’t disregard the perspective of this world too much!? No fantasy or shit!
Saria next to me lightly draw back from the muscles of Gassur!
However, Gassur who received my rebuttal, floated a stunned expression.
“What a stupid thing…… it’s decided that this muscle will be shown to people! That’s common sense!”
“Hey, am I strange? Am I the ones who’s strange!?”
If what Gassur is saying is common sense, I don’t think the common sense I know is the basic.
“I heard your story from afar, but …… you guys seem to want to register with the guild!”
I was stunned, but in Gassur’s words, I get back to my own mind.
“No…… we’re going to stop that anymore……”
“Don’t hesitate! We always welcome new companions!”
“That is why, we won’t register ……”
“Now then, don’t stand up in a place like this, enter inside!”
“Yeah, let’s listen to me first.”
However, in the end, Gassur didn’t care at all and forcibly pulled us into the guild.
Being inside the guild for the third time, the perverts are still in rampant, and Saria was looking at such a situation around her interestingly. And then, as she saw a woman whipping an old man, she points her finger at it.
“Hey, Seiichi. What are they doing?”
“Shh! Don’t look!”
By no means, I never thought I would be in a standpoint to do this.
Despite the fact that we came in, the adventurers inside the guild didn’t seem to care at all, and were immersed in their own world.
They’re no-good guys. I have to do something quickly.
When I heavily sighed inwardly, before I knew it, I was passed to a place that seems to be the guild’s reception desk.
“Come now, register here!”
“As I said, we’re not going to be part of such a pervert’s group!”
“What was that!? If you register here, you can get a body like mine! Behold, this meat, body and beauty!”
Gassur decided to do muscle poses one after another.
…… I can’t cut a quip anymore. Where do I even start with ……
Certainly, if such a person is the guild master, I can understand this guild which has only perverts.
Looking at Gassur with half-open eyes, Gassur who noticed me looks down.
“Yes…… I’m completely ashamed. If you register with the guild here, you’ll get a lot of great services ……”
“……”
“You can even stay at a safe and secure inn with every meal at a cheap price, and no matter which country you go to, you can have various services at tool shops and blacksmith shops~. We will also inform you about recommended requests tailored to each individuals~ ! It’s no good in other guilds~!?”
While glancing this way many times, Gassur was floating a facial expression of regret. I wonder why, I want to hit him.
“I don’t have any trouble with money, so the services don’t feel very attractive. First of all, wherever you register, the contents of the service don’t change, right? They’re the same guild.”
“You don’t understand! How amazing the guild here is!”
“Yeah, not at all.”
“Behold! Everyone in this place!”
However, beyond what Gassur was showing, there’s only the chaotic space where the perverts’ bunch was spreading.
“Everyone has a lively look!? Do you understand why?”
“I don’t want to know”
“They’re faithful to their desires!”
“I guess that’s right!”
If you say that this was them suppressing themselves, then most of the people in the world are saints.
“Actually, my guild is high-level, and only the people who really register in this guild can get services even if they go to other countries.”
“I think that there was a person who said that he was indebted to the soldier-sans every time.”
“That’s, just their interactions with the soldiers of this country.”
“That’s an unpleasant interaction!”
“Anyway, it’s true that it’s excellent. That’s because, all the S-class adventurers who are active in the world were from this guild.”
“I see, all S-class adventurers are perverts.”
For the time being, it’s pervert = the strongest, isn’t it, I understand.
“Don’t care about the details! Now, register, and get the same body as mine!”
“I’ll refuse with all my might.”
I refused his invitation resolutely, but the following words of Gassur shook my heart.
“U umu …… However, in this Guild, you can get information from all over the world faster than any guild, you know? I think it’s attractive for adventurers, because information is more important than anything else, but ……”
“…… Why can we get information faster with this guild?”
“This guild, is more than just a guild. It’s the 【Guild Headquarters】 that’s why.”
“!”
I was surprised at Gassur’s words, with my eyes wide open.
What the hell……
“The gathering of perverts is in the guild headquarters…… is it already too late……”
“You, did realize that you are saying something very rude?”
“Shut up, pervert”
“That is severe!”
For some reason, Gassle decidedly do a muscle pose with a smile, contrary to the words he said. Pervert.
“But, if this is the guild headquarters ……”
The information of the heroes that I wanted to know will arrive, too. That, was very important to me. It’s just called a guild, so the number of information may not be in fragments. It should be absolutely more efficient than collecting information individually.
With that in mind, I know it’s better to register, but ……
“I’ll be treated as same pervert as them, though……”
Ah, in terms of status, I’m also a pervert in a sense . I’m no longer human.
“It’s important to be resolute! What will you do?”
Even if you ask me that …….
As I think seriously and groan, Saria, who had been silently listening until now, pulled my robe.
“Hey, Seiichi”
“Nn? What’s wrong?”
“I think it’s fine to register”
“Eh?”
“That’s because, everyone seems to be having fun. And, if it’s convenient, then we should register, you know?”
I understand Saria’s point. It’s also convenient, and now that I’ve heard the word guild headquarters, I have no choice but to be convinced.
However, even though everyone seems to be having fun, the content is no good, that’s why!?
“…… I knew that this place is the guild headquarters, and that you can get services in other countries, too, but isn’t that unfair for people who registered in places like the branches?”
“Well now. However, if the person who registered in a branch also registers in this guild, then he can get the same service, you know? Most adventurers stop by this city, and most adventurers have re-registered here.”
“Hmmm……”
It’s a hassle doing that twice, but they can re-register huh……
Then, it’s very regrettable, but it seems it’s better to register here.
“Haa …… I understand. We will register.”
“I thought you would say that! Alright, Ellis-kun!”
Gassur laughed happily, and called out to the woman in bondage figure who was whipping an old man.
“Ara? What’s wrong?”
“I’m sorry, but there are new registrants. Please do the procedure.”
“I understand.”
Saying that, the woman in bondage went to the reception desk, and appeared in front of us.
“This dress isn’t acceptable as a receptionist, right……”
As she says that, she snaps between her fingers once. At that moment, she transformed from her bondage appearance until now, and changed to clothes full of pureness, which is based on green and white.
“I’ve showed you an unsightly appearance. My name is Ellis McLene, the receptionist. Hereafter, please to make your acquaintance.”
After introducing herself, she lightly pinches her skirt and bows elegantly.
The appearance of such Ellis, has a beautiful blonde hair which is curled into a drill-like shape, that can often be seen in manga and other young lady characters, with her beautiful blue eyes. With a face that can be taken as both from a beautiful girl and a beautiful woman, her skin was also white, and she got a very gorgeous impression combined with her overall atmosphere.
I don’t know …… I really feel like she’s an ojou-sama from a manga. Her gap from the start is amazing.
With that impression, Gassur supplemented for Ellis-san.
“By the way, Ellis-kun, is also the daughter of Count McLene.”
“She was seriously an ojou-sama!”
I mean, why is the young lady working in such a guild!? Moreover, in such a pervert’s guild! She was waving a whip in high-spirits!
“Gassur-san. I’m not impressed with you talking about a woman’s information incessantly. At once, should I have you well trained?”
“Please forgive me for that.”
Gassur is weak! No, is Ellis-san strong? Rather than that, train she said ……
“Well, it’s fine. This time, you and that woman will be registering, right?”
“Ye,yes”
“Then, please fill out this paper.”
On the paper she handed over while saying so, there was a field for me to enter my name and hometown.
“Do I have to fill all of this out?”
“No. If you can fill in at least only your name, then that’s fine.”
Loose! It’s too easy to make an ID! …… Well, I can’t write my hometown, so I think it’s better for me that this was this loose ……
For the time being, I pass the paper to Saria, and she fills it out steadily. Saria was also able to write when she learned human language, so she has no problem at all.
When I finished writing, I also checked Saria’s part. It would be a problem if she wrote her hometown as 【Forest of Endless Love and Sorrow】.
“Um …… the name is Saria-san, and the weapon is…… your own fist!?”
“Ehehe, isn’t it cool?”
She was certainly a gladiator, though! But, couldn’t it be expressed a little differently!?
However, she didn’t write anything that was particularly troublesome except for the weapon column, so we gave it to Ellis-san as it was.
“Then, let me check it once. First of all, the woman there is Saria-san, and her weapon…… is her own fist.”
A’re!? Ignored!? Surprisingly, am I the one who’s strange!?
“…… Yes, there was no inadequacy with Saria-san. Well, next is……”
Once Ellis-san, puts down Saria’s registration form, this time she took the paper I had written.
“The name is Seiichi-san, and your weapons are swords and magic. Hee …… it ’s excellent.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. There are only a few people who can use magic, you know? Well, wearing such a robe, you feel like a magician somehow because you’re wearing a hood.”
“I see……”
As I thought, magicians seem to be surprisingly valuable in this world.
But, it won’t be conspicuous as Claude says.
Perhaps, I shouldn’t need to wear the hood …… I have still little information about the heroes, and even if I want to take it off, I can’t take it off, though.
“……It’s alright. There are many people who don’t write their hometown ……You both don’t have any deficiencies in filling it out.”
It seems that, we were able to register safely. I felt relieved and stroked my chest, but I was only relieved for a little while.
“Yes! Well then, Seiichi-kun and Saria-kun! I’ll have you guys take the test!”
“……Eh? Test?”
A stupid voice comes out of me, in the words that was suddenly announced.
“Yes, test! If you register with this guild, I explained earlier that you can receive various services. Since you can receive such services, it’s not easy to register.”
“Eeh…… isn’t that a scam ……”
What the…. I thought I was done with the registration as I wrote on the piece of paper. Explain that first……
“Well, don’t feel down! Look, get excited with my muscles!?”
“No, I don’t know.”
Even if he showed his muscular arm, I would have no choice but to answer like that.
“Anyway! As soon as the test is over, I’ll give you an overview of the guild!”
“Haa…… so what will we do with the test? I mean, what happens if we fail this test……”
“There is no such thing as failure, so don’t worry!”
“Then there’s no point for the test!?”
I wonder why they have to do a test. It doesn’t mean anything.
When I was beyond surprised and amazed at it, Ellis-san supplemented.
“Test is just for pretense. Actually, that thing is like a survey to mediate requests according to the ability of the person who is registering. And the guild’s requests are mainly divided into subjugation, collection, chores, and escorts, in which we conduct chores, subjugation, and collection ability in surveys.”
“I see……”
“However, we need to have one test supervisor in place, in order to do the test.”
“Test supervisor?”
“That’s right. It also needs to be an adventurer of B class or higher. Does anyone, know such a person?”
“No, not at all ……”
“If so, I’ll call out from someone here. For now, let’s see who is in the guild at this point.”
“As expected, Ellis-kun! You work fast.”
“Gassur-san is just, an incompetent individual. This trash bastard.”
“I’m sorry.”
Ellis-san, your wordings is dirty.
After such an exchange, Ellis-san immediately tried to find a B-class adventurer for us, at that time.
“Oi, you”
Suddenly, such a voice called out on my back.
(TN: I’ll be on break for the next two to three days, since I’m going on a small vacation!! Thanks for understanding (~ ̄▽ ̄)~)
