The wind is blowing fast. Hours after Ekidna began flying, the city was seen from afar. 'Is that Belen?

The rain looked down at the city as if it were interesting.

Although not comparable to the civilization of the Earth, the level of civilization in the Hernor continent was never low. "At least it doesn't feel like the Middle Ages."

The streets were neat and tidy and there were even streetlights lighting up the night.

The sense of visiting European cities in rural areas rather than fantasy worlds.

"Get me off near the city of Ekidna."

Ekidna fluttered her wings and began to descend.

A huge dragon suddenly appeared near the city, so originally, there should be a big uproar, but thanks to the power of cover-up, no particular disturbance occurred.

"Oh, my God!"

As soon as she came down to the floor, Cha Yeon-ju touched the ground and began to delude.

While throwing up, he glared at Ekidna with resentment.

[Humming]

Ekidna snorted back to the human form. 'Did you all pack the translator?' 'Yes.'

Rain put a sticker that looked like a motion sickness patch on the back of his ear.

It was also one of the magical items that squeezed the card price.

"Let's go."

The group of rainfalls walked toward the entrance to the city.

"Please show me your identification card."

"Here you are."

The rainfall held out a piece of wood to a guard guarding the entrance to the city.

Of course, you can't have your ID card in advance.

"You're a mercenary. Please keep in mind that in the event of a disturbance, summary disposal is possible according to the law of Belen land."

The guard spoke in a stiff voice.

Rain recaptured the piece of wood he had held out to him, releasing the power of his blind eye.

"Yes."

He nodded lightly and went inside.

Although Uriel was missing, as many as 10 people, the appearance of the party members was so noticeable that they drew attention at once.

"Wow, they're goddesses."Hey, look at that guy... Oh, my God, he's so handsome!"

"Ceroveros! Keroberos has appeared!"

Rain looked around inside Belen, ignoring the disturbances around him.

...what is it?

a faint sense of deja vu

I remembered seeing a city like this somewhere.

Valencia.

A corrupt city in South America. I felt the sense I felt at that time. "Brother, here..."

Kim Si-hoon also called him in a small voice to see if he felt something different.

The rain squinted open and looked calmly at the city's streets.

It's definitely weird.

It's not that there's no one walking around the street.

I've been looking at this side with interest and making a fuss.

If you look closely, however, all the people who made a fuss were dressed in colorful costumes and wearing expensive accessories.

'The rest.'

It's so lifeless that it's said that it's miserable.

negative and gloomy energy before the city

It was covered with a sieve, and there was a faint smell of rot in the alley. 'cause it's a classy society.

go

It was not known whether Belen was originally like this or whether the Ernoir continent itself was this atmosphere. "Let's move for now."

The rain cut off the idea of a long run.

Whether Belen had a huge gap between the rich and the poor or the common people suffered, it was none of his business.

His purpose in this city is one.

"acquiring a general knowledge of the Hernor Continent, such as the location of the High Elves."

All I had to do was focus on that purpose.

"Kang-woo, don't you think you need some money first?"

"That's true."

At Han Seol-ah's question, Kang-woo nodded.

A case of eating here or holding a house.

Money was a must.

What is the currency of the Eleanor continent?

I don't know.

The rainfall recalled a huge amount of pure gold that had been brought in advance.

It has already been investigated that a mineral called 'gold' is traded at an expensive price in the Ernoir continent.

"Then let's exchange the gold we brought into this currency."

Fortunately, there was a bank-like institution inside the Belen estate that could exchange gold.

The unit of currency is Arnan. It was worth 1 won and 1 arnan as there was no big difference between the prices. 'It's nice that it's easy to understand."

I thought there could be confusion if the unit of gold and silver was changed, but fortunately, there was no confusion in the sense of money.

"Then, let's change about a billion arnan."

One hundred million won per person will have no restrictions on traveling around the Hernor continent.

The rainfall changed only a fraction of the net gold it brought to cash.

"Tell me if you need more."

I said, allocating 100 million arnan to each personally,

It was naturally burdensome to carry 100 million won in cash, but fortunately, there was a card on the Ernoir continent that could store bank-issued currency.

Don't tell me there are check cards in this world."

Rain looked down at the card-type harness issued by the bank as if it were ridiculous.

To be honest, it feels quite different from the world I imagined.

"And the unit of currency is Arnan. Is there any other country besides the Arnan Empire on this continent?"

Cha asked. "Of course there is, but as the Arnan Empire is the strongest and Maddo civilization has developed, all other kingdoms are using the currency of Arnan."

"Heh."

In Bernac's answer, Cha touched the card with wonder.

"Shall we start with the accommodation next time?"

"You'd better do that."

You won't be able to look into the information in a day.

The rainfall nodded and found a nearby accommodation.

There was a luxurious inn near a large castle that looked like a permanent castle.

'No, it's not.

The rainfall, which was about to go there, opened its eyes and shook its head.

'If the purpose is to get information, it's somewhere else.'

What he thinks is that the first floor is a bar and the upper floor is a lodging place.

Of course the quality will be lower compared to the luxury inn over there, but it was not necessary to think that the more crowded the place is, the easier it is to get information.

Rain went off the main street and found an inn in a corner.

As he wanted, the first floor was a bar, and from the second floor, an inn was run as a lodging.

It was.

"Sigh. I'm going crazy."

"How's the Princess Iris doing?"

"She's the same. Damn it! If it weren't for her..." "Hey, watch your mouth! No matter how little aristocrats there are, what do you do?"

"Oh, yeah. I'm sorry."

As expected, some information appeared interesting even before opening the door.

'I think there's something wrong with the Arnan Empire."

Otherwise, no matter how many bars were located in the corner, there was no way to talk behind the scenes about the imperial family.

'Let's take it slow.'

Now that I came to the Ernoer continent, it was also important to understand how the continent works.

Rain first went upstairs and unpacked in the room.

"It's a little old, but it's cleaner than I thought."

Han Seol-ah, who came to share a room with the rainfall, unpacked her luggage and said.

"I don't have a check card or anything like that's all. I heard the level of civilization here is quite high, but I didn't expect it to be this high."

"Ho-ho, I'm glad it won't take long to get used to it."

"Well, I don't know how long I'll be here."

The rain sat on the bed and said,

Han Seol-ah, sitting next to him, leaned over and hugged the arm of the rain.

A heavy yet soft touch spread through the arm. 'Cherberos is here!'

The cry I heard on the street just now came to mind.

Han said with a smile.

'I don't mind living here for the rest of my life with you.' '...my mother must be crying."

"Hahaha. Well, the Earth is better than here."

Han Seol-ah nodded and said in a quiet voice.

Kangwoo, will you take a rest today?"

a strange voice

Kang Woo shook his head with a look of regret.

'But I don't want to rest already.' 'Wow.'

Han Seol-ah pouts her lips cutely. Kangwoo smiled up and got up. "Then let's move right away."Yes, Mr. Kangwoo."

The rain collected party members who had unpacked and said,

"Make a group and go around the city and gather information on this side. Any information is fine. It's better if it's about the situation of the Arnan Empire or the High Elves."

Saying so, Kangwoo himself divided the group.

It was obvious what would happen if we let them group freely.

"Seola and Ekidna, Sihun and Leira, Lee Ris and Bernac, Balok and Halkion will go together."

'What about you, Kangwoo?' 'I'll gather information from the bar on the first floor."

It took some time to talk about Iris, the woman I heard passing through the entrance.

"Yeah, I'm sorry I can't go with you, but I can't help it."

Liris nodded and turned to Bernac.

"Let's gather some useful information and come back."

"Yes, Madame."

Bernac bowed politely and said,

His one-eyed glasses and a butler's suit made him look pretty good when he said that.

'It's a skeleton.

dressed in pink apron

The party members, except for the rainfall, dispersed and began investigations.

The lone rainfall walked down to the accommodation on the first floor.

In a noisy atmosphere, harsh curses and complaints come and go.

Now that we can't hear laughter anywhere, even though it's a bar, the lives of Belen's common people are very small.

I could realize that I was miserable without difficulty.

Let's have a drink and listen."

You can't just come to the bar and drink all the water and listen.

It was necessary to order alcohol to avoid unnecessary doubt.

'They said they sell beer here, too.'

The thought of a cool beer made my throat thirsty.

It occurred to me that I had never rested in recent months in preparation for my journey to the Hernor continent.

'I'm a little sorry for the others.

He headed to the counter with a convenient excuse in his head, saying, "This is also part of his mission, so I can't help it."

"A beer and any side dish."

The rainfall at the table ordered drinks and snacks.

Soon after, some pieces of lukewarm beer and ham came out. Oh, my God.

The expression of the rain, which put a slice of ham in its mouth, was distorted roughly.

What's so salty?

He did not add a single lie, but he was salted.

Warm beer can be cooled down with power, but there was no way.

You've lost your appetite.’

He made a grimace by spitting out ham in his mouth.

Then the boy who was serving the beer shivered.

"Oh... well, I'm sorry! My sister is not good at cooking. to one's taste

If it doesn't fit, I'll change it to a different side dish."

The boy bent down hurriedly.

'No, thanks,' said Kang-woo, waving his hands and taking something out of his arms.

"Instead, put the stuff in here in the pot and heat it up."

What Kang-woo took out was a vacuum pack containing Han Seol-A's kimchi stew.

It is easy to heat up for portable use, so it is a favorite item for rainfall.

"Oh, the outside food is a bit..."

Rain took out two 50,000-Arnan bills and stuck them in the boy's pocket.

"I'll heat it up right now!"

The boy answered with a powerful voice and ran to the kitchen with a vacuum pack.

Rain looked around, drinking cold beer with the power of ice.

Now, let's hear what you're talking about."

Listen to the conversation.

"Uh. Did you hear that? I heard taxes will go up again from next year."

Damn it, Belen. She's crazy! The Empire is a mess."

"Oh, I can't believe I'm even more taxed here when I'm barely making ends meet."

complaints heard everywhere While waiting for kimchi stew, Kangwoo focused on the conversation.

Close your eyes and organize the information that comes through your ears.

Whaaaah!

"Silent! Everybody, put your hands on your head and lie down on the floor!""

"The nine people who have just taken their quarters here! Where are they?"

The door was smashed into the bar with knights in armor.

Among the knights, a fat man in colorful costumes came in without hesitation.

"Well, Be, Belen. This is nothing, what's the matter?"

The boy who was serving beer asked carefully, holding a pot in his hand.

A man called Belen's own masterpiece crushes his expression and kicks the boy with his feet.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Is it?"

As if upsetting, Vellen stepped on the boy's head.

"Huh?"

The man's expression hardened. The pot the boy was holding. The red liquid in it spilled on the floor and splashed on his shoes. "What is this food waste?"

As if disgusting, Belen rubbed her shoes on the floor.

"...food, garbage?"

Drunk.

The chair is pushed back.

A young man with sharp eyes rose from his seat.
