Forest. Trees. Grass. I'm excited to see a forest that has been lowered to be inconspicuous. Nature is the best.
"Yuta. Calm down. There are monsters in this forest, too."
I was spinning around excitedly, but Sylphy warned me not to.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was a little too excited.
"Well, I guess it can't be helped if you've been in the land of the dead for so long, can it?"
"Ha, it's all right now. I've calmed down. Hey, Sylphie. Is that a spirit flying over there?
I calm down and look around. There's a rabbit flying around. I think it's probably a spirit, but I can't deny the possibility that it's a flying rabbit because it's another world.
"She must be a floating spirit. Come to think of it, Yuta can see spirits normally, so it might be a little difficult for him in a place where spirits are present.
Assuming that it is a flying spirit, it would be easy to judge, but if it landed on the ground, it would be difficult to judge.
"Hmmm. I'm getting a little nervous about being able to tell them apart."
"I'm sure you'll get used to it eventually, but maybe explore the woods a bit just to make sure?"
...... is a place to be troubled. But our goal now is the labyrinth city. We'll explore later.
"We have Bell and the others waiting for us, so let's go to the labyrinth city first. We'll check it out after we get settled into our lodgings.
If we make them wait too long, they'll get tired of waiting.
"Okay. Then let's head for the labyrinth city. Should we avoid the demons?
Demons in the land of the dead and other places. ...... Hmmm, I'm curious, but for now, the labyrinth city comes first.
"Yeah. Let's avoid it. How long does it take to get to the labyrinth city?"
"Well, ......, maybe an hour?"
I'm sure Sylphy is thinking in terms of her physical strength now that she has reached a higher level. If she'd just moved in, she'd be two or three hours away. That's pretty far.
"We'll have to go to the Adventurer's Guild to get some cash when we get to the labyrinth city, so let's hurry a little."
Yes, it is. Then let's go.
We follow Sylphy's lead through the forest. Sylphy helps us avoid the demons, and we enjoy our walk through the forest.
Unlike the dry and parched land of death, the slightly moist and calming air of the forest fills my heart. The smells of the various plants are mixed in with the air, and it is the most calming of all. It feels like a picnic.
"Yuta. I'm glad you believe me, but you're being too careless. Even in the labyrinth city, if you're like that, you'll get noticed.
"If a countryman comes to the city, will he still be targeted?"
"It's a power-crazed city. It's a power-brokers' town, so you're bound to get their attention."
......That's not good. We're going to turn the tables on the thieves who got involved. It's a great event, but the weapons are too powerful to hold back. I made mincemeat out of a ragamuffin that got involved ...... I doubt if self-defense is possible.
"I'll be careful. I'm not sure I can take it easy if I get tangled up with him, so I'm sorry but can Sylphy give him a moderate beating?"
"Okay."
I think my mood rose when I asked Sylphy to help me. Are you excited about the rough stuff? Are you okay? ......That's it. Let's not get tangled up. It's a world where you have to be tough or you'll get licked.
Sylphy, in a somewhat good mood, leads us through the forest. A short walk through the meadow leads to a well-trodden path. It is a strange feeling to be excited by a dirt path.
As we walk along the path, we frequently see spirits floating in the air. When nature is in balance, there are many spirits.
"Sylphie. Sylphy is great, isn't she? Why don't the spirits come together?"
"Except for the king of spirits, rank is merely a measure of power. They don't gather unless they have something to do.
I guess this is what makes us different from humans. I'm the type of person who haggles when ...... celebrities are around, so I'd like to learn from them.
"Yuta. I see a labyrinth city.
As I was thinking about it, Sylphy told me about it, so I looked up and saw what looked like a castle wall in the distance.
That must be the labyrinth city. Let's hurry a bit.
A city in another world. And a labyrinth city. I can't contain my excitement.
"Hmm. Don't run. They'll think something's wrong.
"Okay, okay."
I'm about to run a little, but I'll keep it to a brisk walk. I'm looking forward to it. What's the atmosphere like in the city?
**
In front of you is a large gate. The walls are high and sturdy, indicating that this is an important place in the country. Beyond the gate is a town in another world.
There is a long line in front of the gate, but it seems to be moving at a fairly fast pace, so it won't take long to get in. I get to the end of the line and observe the otherworldly people up close for the first time.
Hmmm... Are they all normal people? I think the person who just entered had a chemomimi, but I'm too far away to make out. It's frustrating.
I want to ask Sylphy a lot of questions, but it's hard to talk to him with all the people around. I wait impatiently for my turn to come with a sense of anticipation and anxiety in my heart.
I'm waiting for my turn to come.
"Next. IDs, please."
"Ah, I came out from the countryside to be an adventurer and I don't have any ID. I don't have any money on me, so I want to pay the entrance fee with magic stones.
I asked Sylphy about it, and he replied smoothly because he had already prepared for it. Preparation is important.
"Now, hold up your hand to this crystal.
Criminals can be identified by these crystals. It seems that the system uses the magic pattern registered when the ID card is issued to detect criminals. It's like fingerprint matching. If they don't know who the criminal is, this crystal won't react.
"Mm. No problem. If you pay in magic stones, you get two F-rank magic stones. Or one E-rank."
He takes the skeleton's magic stone from the magic bag and hands it to the gatekeeper. The skeleton's magic stone is rank E. Soldiers are D, knights and mages are C, generals are B, and kings and rich are A.
The money is a hundred yen for a copper coin. A copper coin costs 1,000 yen. A silver coin is 10,000 yen. A gold coin is 100,000 yen. Gold is 100,000 yen. Platinum is 1,000,000 yen. The unit of measure is elt. The name is said to be taken from the name of this continent, Eltlude.
It's easy to understand because it's like a circle replaced by elt. I would like to have a lot of white gold coins and play hard in the city at night.
+
"Okay. You will be issued a temporary ID. You have three days to get a proper ID and return the temporary ID. Failure to do so will make you a criminal, so be careful."
It's too scary to be a criminal just because you don't return your ID. Well, adventurers don't refuse anyone who comes to them, so it should be no problem, as long as they are not criminals and it is easy to make an ID. But it's surprisingly easy to get in for a place where wars are going on so much.
I understand.
Okay. You may enter."
The gatekeeper's words are received and the visitor passes through the gate. Once inside the city, a large cobblestone street runs from the front of the gate straight to the back.
"Oh! Syl ......"
No. Sylphy is invisible to everyone. I almost called out to her. I look around, and people look at me like, "Oh, he's a country boy.
I wanted to shout that Japan is much more urban and crowded than here, but I would be a completely crazy person, so I held back.
"Hmmm. That's right. Don't forget you're not supposed to talk to me. We're going to the Adventurers' Guild, okay?"
I nod silently and follow Sylphy. I'm afraid I'll accidentally talk to Sylphy until I get used to it.
Oh, that's Nekomimi. Hmm? There's a Nomos lookalike, too. That must be a dwarf. I'm also interested in the stores along Central Avenue. There are a lot of spirits in the city. As I was walking around...
"Ouch!"
A man passes me and glares at me with his hands down as he walks away. ...... what is it?
"Yuta. I know you're worried about your surroundings, but don't look around so much. The guy who just came in is a pickpocket."
...... Apparently, we were spotted by the bad guys as fast as we could. Sylphy. Thanks for holding them off. I managed to make eye contact with him and he smiled kindly at me.
From the central street we entered a large square and passed through it to the right, where we saw more stern men. The stores along the street also sell weapons and armor. The number of stores along the road has also increased, including stores selling weapons, armor, tools, and other things that adventurers might need. The Adventurers' Guild seems to be close by.
This is the Adventurers' Guild. If you go further down the road, you will find the entrance to the labyrinth.
The entrance to the labyrinth. ...... I'd like to go have a look, but I'll get my ID first. The Adventurers' Guild looks much more impressive than the other buildings in the labyrinthine city. I nod to Sylphy and enter the Adventurers' Guild.
There are surprisingly many people in the guild. Or perhaps there is no one at the counter, but many people in the bar next to it. I have always wondered why there is a bar in the Adventurers' Guild. It would only cause trouble.
...... I see! Is the tavern built to keep the troubles of the adventurers as much as possible inside? Drunken rowdiness in the city will ruin the reputation of adventurers, but here there are many people who will stop them if they get rowdy. Maybe they have thought this through more than you think. Keep the dangerous ones within your sight. It's the right choice.
What's wrong?
I was feeling pleased to have unlocked a great secret, when Sylphy approached me curiously. I shook my head and headed for the empty counter.
"Excuse me, sir. I'd like to become an adventurer. ......"
There was this incredibly beautiful woman. I was surprised and a little at a loss for words. Why is this counter empty? I look at the other counters and see a woman as beautiful as the rest of them.
I see. In this world, as well as in the world of manga and anime, it is the default for the receptionist of an adventurer's guild to be a beautiful woman. It gives us a glimpse of how men can be so easily fooled.
Is something wrong?
"No, no. It's nothing. I want to become an adventurer.
I can't say I was just admiring her beauty. I had been trying not to be licked by the beautiful woman, but I was pressured by her and ended up speaking respectfully. Sylphy's eyes pierced my heart.
"Awe, sir. Please have a seat here so we can go through the formalities.
I sit down in the chair that is recommended to me, and calm myself down. I had thought that Shilfi and the other girls were so beautiful because they were spirits, but it turns out that humans are amazing too. It's a terrifying other world. Thank you very much.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Forest. Trees. Grass. I'm excited to see a forest that has been lowered to be inconspicuous. Nature is the best.
"Yuta. Calm down. There are monsters in this forest, too."
I was spinning around excitedly, but Sylphy warned me not to.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was a little too excited.

The Adventurers' Guild seems to be close by.This is the Adventurers' Guild. If you go further down the road, you will find the entrance to the labyrinth.The entrance to the labyrinth. ...... I'd like to go have a look, but I'll get my ID first. The Adventurers' Guild looks much more impressive than the other buildings in the labyrinthine city. I nod to Sylphy and enter the Adventurers' Guild.There are surprisingly many people in the guild. Or perhaps there is no one at the counter, but many people in the bar next to it. I have always wondered why there is a bar in the Adventurers' Guild. It would only cause trouble....... I see!Is the tavern built to keep the troubles of the adventurers as much as possible inside? Drunken rowdiness in the city will ruin the reputation of adventurers, but here there are many people who will stop them if they get rowdy. Maybe they have thought this through more than you think. Keep the dangerous ones within your sight. It's the right choice.What's wrong?I was feeling pleased to have unlocked a great secret, when Sylphy approached me curiously. I shook my head and headed for the empty counter."Excuse me, sir. I'd like to become an adventurer. ......"There was this incredibly beautiful woman. I was surprised and a little at a loss for words. Why is this counter empty?I look at the other counters and see a woman as beautiful as the rest of them.I see. In this world, as well as in the world of manga and anime, it is the default for the receptionist of an adventurer's guild to be a beautiful woman. It gives us a glimpse of how men can be so easily fooled.Is something wrong?"No, no. It's nothing. I want to become an adventurer.I can't say I was just admiring her beauty. I had been trying not to be licked by the beautiful woman, but I was pressured by her and ended up speaking respectfully. Sylphy's eyes pierced my heart."Awe, sir. Please have a seat here so we can go through the formalities.I sit down in the chair that is recommended to me, and calm myself down. I had thought that Shilfi and the other girls were so beautiful because they were spirits, but it turns out that humans are amazing too. It's a terrifying other world. Thank you very much.
