We arrived at the kingdom of Rosofia, where Sarah's brother is. Thanks to Sylphy, the journey to the kingdom was easy, but when I saw the endless deep forests, I realized how blessed I am. I know how hard it is for me to imagine traveling through such a forest by horse-drawn cart or on foot. I must never forget how grateful I am to Shilfi.

I walk with Gina and the others and Belle, whom I summoned, to the capital of the Kingdom of Rosofia, a distance of about 30 minutes. We are comfortable thanks to Sylphy, but according to her, the surrounding climate is hot and humid.

I should experience the climate of this country firsthand at least once, but I hesitate when I hear that it is hot and humid. I'm not good at summer in Japan, so high temperature and humidity in other worlds usually scare me.

Putting my fears behind me, I take a walk through the forest toward the royal capital. Belle and her friends are enjoying the unusual place and are flying around in the forest.

"Oh, wait a minute!"

"Master, what's wrong?"

I suddenly shouted out, and Gina approached me with a concerned look.

"No, it's nothing serious, but we were dressed in our regular clothes. Normally, adventurers who have been through this much forest on foot would not be wearing normal clothes, right?

Even if we were in adventurer's gear, we would feel uncomfortable because we are not even tired, but it is better than entering the royal capital with full discomfort.

"Oh, you're right. Then, I'll have to change my clothes."

"Yeah. Let's go into the woods for a bit."

Sylphy leads me to a safe place to change my clothes. Well, I'm going to meet Sara's brother, so it's not quite right to wear all gold and shiny.

No, I think it is possible to meet him in shiny clothes because his greatness as an adventurer will make me feel at ease as a master. However, it would be conspicuous with the light dragon equipment.

In a labyrinth city, it doesn't matter if you stand out or not, but in a new country, it's not nice to be the center of attention. ............ Let's choose the equipment before using the light dragon equipment so as not to stand out.

It may be hard for them to believe that we are A rank adventurers, but we have to do our best to make them trust us. Gina and the others are not wearing ...... full body armor, and it suits them well, so they can wear their usual gear.

Now that we are all equipped, let's head to the capital of the Kingdom of Rosofia. We walk leisurely along the road leading to the royal city, keeping an eye on Belle and the others who are excited by the magnificent nature.

It's supposed to be hot and humid, but thanks to Sylphy, it's comfortable, so it's a picnic where we can easily enjoy nature. It's a picnic where we can easily enjoy nature.

People are staring at my face like a monster. They are staring at my face like a thing, though I don't say it out loud. Oh, now they start staring at the guild card.

I'm aware that I don't look like an adventurer of A rank, so I'm not angry, but it makes me sad to see them react as I expected.

There are magic adventurers, not warriors, so there should be A-rank adventurers like me, but I wonder if they have different auras.

"...... please come through."

After a short hesitation, I was given permission to go through. Unlike their counterparts in the village, they were courteous. I'll forgive them for taking so long to let us through.

Gina and the others also passed through the gate without any problems, and we were all able to enter the royal city without incident.

"Wow! Wow! Master, I've never seen anything like this!

Marco is very excited. But it's a very different structure from the labyrinth city, so I can't blame him for being excited. I'm quite surprised myself.

I didn't care about the outer walls protecting the city because they were made of masonry, but once inside, I was surprised to see that almost all the buildings were made of wood. The castle from a distance was also built of stone in a Western style, so I was even more surprised.

But, when you think about it, it is probably natural. There are mountains around the castle, but it is basically green and full of trees. How could they not use that material?

"Yeah. That's great. I've never seen so many wooden houses in a row."

I have seen rows of wooden houses in tourist spots in Japan, and some people build new wooden houses. But this is the first time for me to see a whole town made of wood.

The main street in the center is paved with cobblestones, but the alleys are bare earth, perhaps stone is precious in this country. No, it could be because wood is more affordable.

Sylphy. Why is this not a very impressive country? Isn't it unusual for Sylphy to have a wooden royal city?

Not only Marco, but also Gina and the others are fascinated by the exotic and exotic capital of the Kingdom of Rosofia, but it is indeed annoying to stop any longer in front of the gate. We are getting a lot of smiling stares from people around us, so let's quickly move on.

I urge Gina and the others to leave the gate as quickly as possible. First, we go to the Adventurers' Guild at ...... and ask for information about Sarah's brother and for recommendations for lodging in King's Landing.

(Sylphy. Do you know where the Adventurers' Guild is?)

"Yes, I already know the best places in King's Landing. Do you want me to show you?"

I'm sure the liquor stores are among the places to look.

(Yes. Please do.)

Sylphy guides us to the Adventurers' Guild while we tour the streets of King's Landing.

But you know what? It looks somewhat like the scenery of Edo that I saw in a period drama, though the construction is slightly different. If the houses are made of the same wood, they might be similar to some extent.

The openings of the stores are wide, and the houses seen from the back alleys seem to have all the walls removed. I wonder if they use some kind of shutters to close the doors at night or something.

I am worried about insects since I can't see any screens, but it seems to be cool to some extent if there is enough space to let in the wind.

Belle and the others seem to be curious about the new city, and since they are only going to the Adventurers' Guild and the inn, it might be a good idea to take them for a walk.

Hmm? Fukuchan and Puru-chan are cuddling up to Sarah. Sara is nervous and worried. I wonder if Belle and Puru would be jealous if we let them go for a walk, and if we should wait for Belle and Puru to go for a walk after Sara has calmed down.

She is in a rare country, so even in the neighborhood, her eyes are twinkling and observing. I'm sure she won't be bored for a while.

I follow Sylphy, looking around the cityscape, which makes me feel nostalgic.

I was distracted by the buildings, but the costumes in this country are a little different from those in the Kingdom of Chrysoprase. It would have been more interesting if they were dressed like kimonos, but alas, they were not.

While the adventurer-like people wore long pants and long sleeves, perhaps because they were going into the forest, the inhabitants of the capital seemed to dress mainly for coolness, wearing shorts, half pants, short sleeves, and tank tops.

I am glad that women wear light clothes, but it is a little sad to see men in shorts. A fashionable person may be able to wear shorts well, but shorts worn by ordinary men are very uncomfortable for me as a Japanese.

This is the Adventurers' Guild.

...... a bit of a shame. The Adventurers' Guild, guided by Sylphy despite my confusion at the sight of my uncle wearing shorts, was a stone building with an atmosphere one would expect to find in a labyrinthine city. I would have preferred an adventurer's guild with a wooden structure like a samurai residence.

Sometimes, the most of the splendid buildings we saw were made of stone, and it may be a trend for rich and powerful organizations to build stone buildings.

Well, I'll leave the discussion of the buildings in the royal city for now and enter the Adventurers' Guild. It might not be a bad idea to meet Sara's brother out of the blue and have a dramatic reunion with him. Let's prepare Sarah for that.

"Sara. Is it okay if your brother might be there?"

"Yes. I'm fine now. I've calmed down."

......The great thing about Sarah is that she really does seem to have calmed down. But I guess she is still nervous inside, because both Fukuchan and Puru-chan are snuggling up to her worriedly.

She puts her hand on the familiar-looking door and enters the Adventurers' Guild.

Yes. The inside is not much different from the labyrinth city. Maybe the Adventurers' Guild has a uniform layout of the building so that it is easy to recognize.

Sara looks around the Adventurers' Guild, but there is no response. I guess her brother was not there.

I'd like to check what kind of requests we have, but first I need to get some information about Sara's brother and a good innkeeper. You approach the reception counter and talk to the available receptionist, handing her your Adventurer's Card.

"Excuse me. I have a question. Is this a good time?"

It's not a busy time of the day, so I'm sure it's fine, but there are only a few people here, and one of the two counters is occupied. I'm just checking to make sure, because if I talk too long, all the counters will be occupied.

Well, the counter next to me seems to be occupied by a flirt trying to hit on the receptionist, so I'm going to be annoyed if he says no. .......

"Yes. It's not crowded right now.

The receptionist, who answered with a smile, took my guild card and looked at it twice. I can understand her surprise, but it was still a very impressive double-take. I could feel her surprise all the way through.

By the way, this receptionist is a beauty too. She is humanoid and a bit soft, but that's also good. She is not the ideal woman for a woman, but a woman who is both healing and motherly, the kind of woman that men like.

"...... Kohon. Sorry about that. What did you want to ask me?"

Oh, I'm back on my feet. I'll pretend the second look never happened.

"Well, I've arrived in King's Landing today and I'd like you to recommend an inn and I'd like to know the whereabouts of Mr. Viktor Stille. I heard that Mr. Viktor is making a clan in King's Landing, so I'm sure I'll be able to find him soon.

"Excuse me. What do you want with our Commander?

The charlatan next to me started talking to me, as if he had heard what I was saying. He was the leader of our clan, or was he a clan member of Sarah's brother's clan? I looked at Sara, who was standing next to me, and she was looking at the charlatan and thinking about something.

She seems to have a subtle feeling that she may or may not recognize the charlatan. Sara looks up as if she has noticed something.

"...... that voice ...... is that Ahim by any chance?"

"Huh?"

The charlatan is surprised to hear Sara speak to him out of the blue, and he looks at her face and thinks about it.

"Sara, Miss Sara!"

Oof. In an instant, the man who was supposed to be a flirt changed his mood, and his demeanor became dignified and dignified. You saw a great before and after. People can change their mood in such a short time.

But if Sara knows him, he must be a member of Sara's brother's clan. Lucky or unlucky, I'll have to bring this guy in anyway or the surprise will be a failure.
