Chapter 27: 27

Manon is in a good mood

***---***

 

After having lunch with Manon at the pasta shop ... Well, what should we do from now on?

 

I haven't spent time with a girl before, so I don't know where to go ... or what kind of store there is in Volzard yet.

 

At times like this, the handsome guy of a bratty Hero would escort well.

 

Movie ... we can't do it, and there is no game center ... It's a difficult task for me with zero experience at being a normie and 100% loner power.

 

"Hey Kent, what should we do after this?"

 

"Huh? This, after this ...?"

 

Wow ... it's awkward, I let out a strange voice.

 

We just ate, tea? Is it tea? Is there a coffee shop?

 

"Hey Kent, why don't we go to the ramparts?"

 

"What? What are we going to do when we go to the ramparts?"

 

"Let's go up and look towards the Devil's Forest ..."

 

"Yeah, that's fine, but can we climb the ramparts?"

 

"It's no good when an alarm like the one before is issued, but it's okay to go up normally."

 

"Hmm ... Is that right."

 

I had no idea what to do, so I headed to the ramparts as Manon invited me.

 

The area around the gate is not accessible because the garrison people are guarding it, but you can climb up to the top of the wall from a distance.

 

There is a passage on the wall, and when it comes to battle, the garrison members and adventurers will line up here to intercept the monsters.

 

It's about three floors above the ground, and it feels like you're looking down at the Devil's Forest, but other than the highway, the dense trees obstruct your view and you can't see too far.

 

Oops, the goblins are swarming, did they come to eat the corpses of the rock ogres?

 

"The corpses of the rock ogres have been cleaned up."

 

"Did Manon want to see a rock ogre?"

 

"Yeah, even if you live in Volzard, if you don't enter the forest, you don't have many changes to see monsters, much less a ferocious monster like a rock ogre."

 

"Well ... there's a big difference between inside and outside the wall."

 

Volzard is called the farthest city, but thanks to the walls, there seems to be almost no fear of being attacked by monsters in the city.

 

However, in the event of an occasional outbreak, monsters cna get into the city and cause damage.

 

"Kent, have you seen a rock ogre?"

 

"Yeah, uh ... just from afar, but I've seen them."

 

"That's right, if you were near a rock ogre, you would be eaten immediately."

 

No, Manon-chan, rock ogre can't even get close to me, and it's instantly killed by a vicious skeleton.

 

"Hey, why did Manon decide to become an adventurer?"

 

"Me? I ... I'm influenced by my dad."

 

"Is your father an adventurer?"

 

"Yeah, he was a very good adventurer ..."

 

Is that the past tense? Perhaps I stepped on a land mine, and Manon's expression had a shadow caster over it.

 

According to Manon, Manon's father was an adventurer specializing in mineral extraction.

 

It seems that various mineral materials can be obtained from the dungeon, and many adventurers dive for minerals.

 

In addition to gold ore, silver ore, copper ore, iron ore, etc., stones that can be used as gemstones can also be obtained.

 

Manon's father was a skillful adventurer who used earth attribute magic well and efficiently obtained materials.

 

"Then, was he attacked by a monster in the dungeon ..."

 

"No, my dad died of corruption disease three years ago."

 

"Corruption disease ...?"

 

"Yeah, is it called differently in Kent's country? It's a deadly illness where the stomach hurts and it gradually moves to the right lower abdomen and the internal organs rot."

 

"Well, that's ..."

 

That's just cecum, isn't it?

 

"Kent? What's wrong?"

 

"Well, is there no cure for that rot?"

 

"Hmm ... In the academic city of Bakkenheim, there are good healers, but Volzard's healers can't cure it, and the only way to do it is to take a decoction."

 

"Can they cure it if you go to Bakkenheim?"

 

"Hmm ... maybe ... but I hear that you need a lot of money for treatment, so I think it's impossible unless you're an aristocrat."

 

"I see ..."

 

It's not a fatal illness in Japan, but it seems that surgery isn't done in this world, and it's a scary illness that can lead to death if you get sick.

 

"Thanks to my dad's earning a lot, my mom and I can live, so I wanted to be an adventurer like my dad someday."

 

"Your Mom doesn't object to Manon diving into the dungeon?"

 

"Hmm ... That remains undetermined, but I'll be given the OK on the condition that I finish the fighting class and participate in a solid party."

 

I see, in other words, you can't dive alone.

 

"I'm a water magician, so I think it will come in handy in a party."

 

"Is that so?"

 

"Yeah, because you can't easily get safe water in the dungeon, and if you learn healing magic, you'll be able to wash and heal your wounds."

 

"Well, when it comes to bringing water, it's heavy."

 

"Yeah, people who dive in dungeons use dried perserved foods to reduce weight."

 

"Really ... Is that right."

 

I see, it seems to be quite difficult to dive in a dungeon normally.

 

In my case, I can use shadow movement and shadow storage, so I can do it empty-handed and even on a day trip.

 

I mean, I shouldn't say that you can get water if you use camp paper.

 

"Ke, Kent, if we can finish the battle class, uh ... why don't we party together?"

 

Why does Manon ask while facing away?

 

I feel like her ears are red, but ...

 

"A party, huh ... I haven't thought about it ..."

 

I'm interested in dungeons, and I'd like to try expeditions in search of materials, requests for subjugation, etc., but now the rescue of my classmates is the top priority, and I can't afford to be thinking specifically about adventurer-like activites.

 

"Well, is it no good ..."

 

"Yeah, it's not bad, but you can't rely on only the two of us who just finished the course, right?"

 

"Ah ... that's for sure ..."

 

Well, she just entered a downhearted mood.

 

"I can't think of it right now, and I don't think I'll be able to finish the course yet, but when I'm joining a party, I'll always ask Manon."

 

"Really?"

 

"Uh, yeah ... it's true."

 

"Because it's a promise, you absolutely have to!"

 

"Uh, yeah ... I promise."

 

After all, Manon wants to dive into the dungeon like her father.

 

Do you really care about being invited to my party?

 

Or is Manon also a loner and happy to find me who is a fellow loner?

 

How can I check it?

 

"Hey Kent, why don't we go to the weapon shop?"

 

"Weapon shop ...?"

 

"Because you need a weapon to dive into a dungeon, right?"

 

"Well ... that's right."

 

"Let's go see it for a moment."

 

"Uh, yeah, okay."

 

Somehow, it seems as if we're going to the dungeon tomorrow, but Manon has to think about breaking through the course first, right?

 

That said, I still want to see weapons ... but it's not like a date.

 

If you follow Donovan-san's teachings, I think that the weapons I can use now are limited, but it may be good to know the actual price.

 

We were just going to the weapon shop, but ... Is it bad to hold hands?

 

Umm, how can I say it, is a lover handhold no good?

 

I casually reached out to grab Manon's hand ... I stopped, then reached out ... I stopped ... We arrived at the weapon shop while I was doing that.

 

"What's wrong? Kent."

 

"Yeah ... no, nothing ..."

 

"Weird Kent ..."

 

Gussun, I was told that I was weird, I was weird ... Gussun.

 

When I regained my mind and entered the weapon shop, a female clerk welcomed us.

 

"Welcome, Manon. Oh, you have a companion today ..."

 

"Hello, Nasha-san. He is ... my fr, friend Kent."

 

"Nice to meet you, I'm Kent."

 

"I'm Nasha, nice to meet you."

 

Nasha-san is an adult woman with purple hair cut into short bobs.

Unlike the stores run by ugly middle-aged old men, it seems that you can easily see the products.

 

Inside the store, there is a variety of weapons, from small foldable knives to bastard swords.

 

"Ah ... Does Nasha-san make the weapons for this shop?"

 

"No, I'm the manager of the store, and it's my younger brother who makes the weapons."

 

"You brother is a blacksmith, is he?"

 

"He's not a bad guy, but he's a bit of a weirdo, so he's not suitable for business."

 

"I see, he's got the spirit of a true artisan?"

 

"Oh yeah, that's it."

 

Weapons made by Nasha-san's younger brother are lined up in the store, and feedback is given on what kind of items have a good reputation.

 

Manon hasn't actually bought any weapons yet, but she came with her father and is a regular customer.

 

"Hey Kent, aren't you excited just by looking at it?"

 

"Yeah, that's right ..."

 

Normally, I think girls are excited about clothes and accessories, but in the case of Manon, the target is a knife or a dagger that can cut.

 

Looking at the price, it is quite expensive, from about 1,000 Helts for large knives to about 4,000 Helts for expensive ones.

 

I can buy them because I have the money collected from the carriage on my way to Volzard and the magic stones of the rock ogre, but to suddenly buy a gift is strage.

 

I would buy her a knife, since the relationship between me and Manon is inseparable ... but I feel like she would be put off.

 

"Kent is it? What kind of weapon do you want to use?"

 

"I have only practiced with a wooden sword, so I honestly don't know what kind of weapon is good."

 

I was asked by Nasha-san, but I could only answer that I didn't know.

 

"I see, it feels like you've just started combat training, right?"

 

"Yes, and I think my body is becoming stronger, so I'm thinking of choosing a weapon soon."

 

"Yeah, that's pretty impressive for someone so young. Normally, a child of your age wants a weapon that doesn't fit his size."

 

It's probably nothing to do with size, but because non-standard swords and shields lie in the shadows.

 

"Donovan-san has his eyes on me, so if I had a weapon that didn't fit my size, what would he say ... I'm horrified just thinking about it."

 

"Aha, you, Donovan-san is paying attention to you, so you can get some advice during the lesson, so please listen to it before you buy."

 

"Yes, I will ... but when will it be ..."

 

"It's okay, okay, Donovan-san doesn't set his eye on someone unless they're a promising guy, so I think you're really talented."

 

"That's right ... well, I want to be stronger than Gilik-san."

 

"Hmm ... you're pretty interesting. Yes, if you get advice from Donovan-san, I'll introduce you to my younger brother. After all, it's better to make a special weapon."

 

"Thank you, but please hold your expectations."

 

When I was talking to Nasha-san, I was glared at by Manon.

 

"Manon too, If Donovan-san puts his eyes on you I'll talk to my younger brother."

 

Ah, I see, Manon wasn't told they would make her a weapon.

 

I was glared at because I was given a promise first.

 

"But if it's better to make it exclusively, isn't it better to make one for everyone?"

 

"Well, that's right, but when my younger brother starts to get into it, he becomes obsessed, so the number that can be made is extremely reduced."

 

"I see, that wouldn't be profitable."

 

"Oh yeah, I can't live without eating."

 

After that, Nasha-san taught me how to care for weapons and the process of making special weapons, but when I talked to her, Manon was in a bad mood.

 

After all, is a special weapon something you admire?

 

Other customers came to the store and started talking to Nasha-san, so we decided to leave.

 

"Nasha-san, I'll be back again."

 

"Yes, come play again any time, Manon too."

 

At Nasha-san's words, Manon just nodded with Kokun.

 

It seems that she is still in a bad mood.

 

It's good to leave the weapon shop, but it's still a little early to just stop and go home.

 

In other words, the pinch has arrived again, what should we do after this?

 

Tea, tea?

 

"Ke, Kent, do you like older women like Nasha-san and Muell-san?"

 

"Well, that's not the case ... why?"

 

"Because ... you talked together so happily ..."

 

"Eh? That was about something I didn't know, so I just thought it would be a good learning experience."

 

"Is that right?"

 

Hmm? I feel like Manon's mood has returned.

 

I thought, and then I was stopped.

 

"Kent, Kent!"

 

"Ah ... Hello Meline-san."

 

It was Meline-san, the object of Kartz-san's crush, who called out to me.

 

"Thank you for yesterday, I managed to talk to Kartz-san."

 

"Well, that's good, so what did Kartz-san say?"

 

"Yeah, he told me to do what I wanted, and he would help me if I needed anything, and he had my back."

 

"Well, so ... what about the eatery?"

 

"Yeah, it's lonely to close it like this, so I'm thinking of taking a leave of absence, going to train, trying again, and closing it if it still doesn't work."

 

"I see ... where will you practice?"

 

"Yeah, that's the problem, isn't there a good store?"

 

Meline-san is thinking with her arms folded.

 

"Hey, Kent, do you know of a good store?"

 

"A good shop is it ... Hmm ... Amanda-san's shop where I'm boarding ...?"

 

"Hey, does the place Kent is boarding at have a cafeteria?"

 

"Yes, Amanda-san's food is excellent."

 

"Hey, I don't need a salary, so if I ask, will she train me?"

 

"Hmm ... Amanda-san's shop seems to be busy, and I think it's okay because she's a caretaker ..."

 

"Please, could you introduce me a little?"

 

I can't say that I won't if I'm asked by Meline-san, the soul of Kartz-san, who took care of me when I arrived at Volzard.

 

"I don't know if it will work out, but it's okay if you just want me to ask."

 

"Thanks so much!"

 

Fooooooo! I was hugged by Meline-san.

 

Hii, hii, Manon-chan is turning into a Yaksha at the edge of my field of vision ...

 

"Then, is it okay to go right now?"

 

"Yes, I think it's time to prepare for night, so I think it's okay."

 

I decided to return to the boarding house with Meline-san, but Manon's mood turned sour.

 

"I'm going home ... En, joy, your, self!"

 

"Oh, that ... Manon ... Manon-chan ..."

 

Ah, don't touch me, with such an aura fully open, Manon leaves in a huff.

 

"I'm sorry ... I was so happy ... she got angry."

 

"Um ... yes, there are various complex things ..."

 

"Is that so?"

 

"Yes, maybe ..."

 

When I returned to the boarding house with Meline-san and talked to Amanda-san, she gave me two replies.

 

The store was thriving and she was thinking of relying on someone to help her.

 

Meisa-chan seems to be a little dissatisfied, because ...

 

"Now Meisa will be able to study slowly, you can do it properly."

 

"Uh ... oh, I'm going to take over the store, so why am I studying ..."

 

"Because it's no good, even if you take over the store, it's a big difference between being educated and not being educated!"

 

"Huh ... I understand ..."

 

Apparently Meisa-chan is not good at studying.

 

Let me help you when I have time next time.

 

I mean, it's okay, I can teach you about math, right?

 

Meline-san seems to be starting training immediately from tonight.

 

Fred called out when I was thinking of relaxing in my room until dinner.

 

[ Kent-sama ... It looks like there will be a real battle tomorrow ... ]

 

[ What, already? Okay, you continue to scout and give me the report later ... ]

 

[ Roger that ... ]

 

I knew that the actual battle would be held unexpectedly early to show off, but I didn't think it would be tomorrow.

 

I have to make a lot of preparations tonight ... It seems I'll be busy.
