The Swordsman Called the Countless Swords Sorcerer

The next day, Aldis wakes up later than usual.

He looks at his bed next to him, and there is no figure. When I looked over the room while yawning, I saw twins in the same room as yesterday.

They are still close together, but their eyes are closed. He seemed to have not yet awoken from sleep, and his body shook slightly as he breathed. The meals that were left untouched yesterday are clean and flat.

"I ate ..."

I guess Aldis ate after sleeping.

The stew bowl was also beautiful as if licked. There is no doubt that he was hungry. Still, if you didn't eat before Aldis, you're probably still alert. This may be due to the severe handling that twins have had in the past.

While washing his face, Aldis descends to the first floor and greets the innkeeper, receives breakfast from Kashiha and returns to his room.

Meanwhile, the twins were awake. Just like yesterday, he doesn't crouch in the corner of the room and try to approach him.

"Hey, breakfast. You'll eat?"

Calling out, there was no response, and the twins did not try to reach out when Aldis started eating. The situation remains the same when Aldis finishes his meal.

After all, Aldis didn't eat until he got out of the room. Twins can't eat when Aldis is in the room. Determining that it would be better not to forcibly reduce the distance from the twins, Aldis went to a bar where he would meet with Ted, with some anxiety.

"Oh, Aldis! Over here!"

Upon entering the bar, Ted beckons as if waiting. Orphelia and Norris can be seen on the table.

"What happened to them?"

When I arrived, I heard about a twin not behind Aldis.

"Leave it at the inn"

"Are you okay? Can the inn say something?"

"I have already been told, or the previous inn was kicked out immediately."

After all, the expression of three people becomes cloudy with the expression that.

Even mercenaries have narrow shoulders. Mercenary sounds good, but after all many people see it as a fool who can't get a job, and his social status is low. It was somewhat better than a rogue. They use the violence of the townspeople, make one-sided demands with their powers, forcibly get rid of the disgusting town girls, and defeat the food and drinks. Outlaws no different from criminals can be found here and there.

Of course, the Ardis, unlike those, keep the law and do not abuse their power. Some heroic mercenaries are willing to use their power to help people and the world, and many are alive and willing to work hard to avoid disturbing others.

However, from the general public's point of view, the situation is that they are simply put together as "mercenaries." There is no one who oversees what is called mercenary. Indeed, if you violate the law, you will be caught by guards and will be judged by the lord. But it doesn't even reach where the guards aren't looking. After all, mercenary was treated like a wild and violent eater, no matter where in the world. No, it may be more correct in this world.

There are only a few hotels where you can invite such a nose pinch. Tria is still a good city because it is a big city, but it is not uncommon for small towns in rural areas to have no lodging.

"But I found an inn that could somehow stay."

Aldis was dissatisfied, though it was a price.

"I'm glad I had a place to stay. I was worried."

"Well, that's good, but I'm being wary."

Aldis explains the situation with a bitter smile.

"Don't crouch in the corner of the room and try to get close. I won't answer this question. I didn't reach out for dinner before I was there, it was like I ate after I slept. That's right. "

"Is it okay to leave it in the inn?"

"I've been asking people to stay, and they seemed to go to the toilet by myself while I was sleeping. I had lots of opportunities to escape yesterday but I didn't leave my room That's just a story that still keeps me alert. ''

"That's not enough to worry about you. I'm going to think of their circumstances and I'm not going to miss them.

That's it for Ted.

"So, do you talk about work? Norris, will you tell Aldis again about that story?"

"So I said it's better to talk together later .... It's not a hassle twice."

Bad and bad, Ted laughs and cheats. Norris makes a complaint to him, and begins talking about his first request in the morning.

"What I received this time is another survey."

Heavy iron "Why are you going to look for it next time?"

Aldis smiles lightly.

Mercenaries are like this in a peaceful world. As in the previous survey, there may be battles for self-defense in the middle of the investigation, but the fact is that basically everything is treated as a yahoo.

Sudden work, short-term work that is not enough to constantly hire people is often circulated as requests to mercenaries. The client is often a merchant or mayor of a town or village.

Occasionally, requests from the state or the military may come. There are quite a few jobs that a knight is not good at, or that does not need to detain soldiers for a long time.

On the other hand, because they are mercenaries, they are often treated badly. Occasionally there are requests to dispose of mercenaries for disgraceful work that cannot be done by a knight or for being a rogue in the dead. By comparison, research was a relatively good job.

"No, this time we are investigating the land. The size of the road, the water source, the drainage and geology of the designated land, etc."

There were several places to investigate, but all were hills further south through the forests of the Caucasus, and a day or two on foot to the border with neighboring countries.

"Hey ... by the way, who is the client?"

"It looks like a certain firm, but ..."

"However?"

"Perhaps the country is behind you."

"What do you think, Aldis?"

Ted asks from the side.

"I guess it's just a matter of conducting a preliminary survey of the base of the station and the material accumulation area."

"Do you think so?"

Ted agrees with Aldis's reasoning.

"So, is that rumor that the war with the empire is near, is it true?"

Orphelia said anxiously.

"How about? The heavy iron market is calm, and isn't it? Isn't it going to be checked just in case?"

"I just don't know why do you bother with a request from the Thorian firm? The royal capital would be closer."

Ted nodded at Aldis's thoughts, but doubted that Tria had been asked.

"I guess you want to be as secretive as possible to keep it as inconspicuous as possible. It's probably because of the camouflage that it's not a request from the lord or the army, but a request from the firm. Isn't it? "

"That's exactly what Aldis said. You said you were preparing for the development."

"That's what it is. Perhaps a similar request may be made in the royal capital."

Ted nods with a convinced face.

"I guess the reward is good because there is a country behind it. The minimum guarantee is 20 gold coins. The survey report is 30 gold coins. What should Aldis do?"

That's right, says Aldis, who thought for a short time.

"Bad, I'm going to decline this time. I've been near the border, so I'll be leaving a lot of accommodation for quite a few days.

There was no voice asking why. Everyone knew it was to take care of the twins. The voice of the heart saying that it is not enough to sleep in camping can only reach Aldis.

"I don't know. I'll call you when you're on a day trip."

"Bad, Ted"

Aldis, who parted with Ted, left the tavern and took himself out of town.

"On a day trip ... the forest of Caucasus is harsh.

Looking at the grassland in front of him, Aldis muttered and stepped forward.
