A VR Travel Story That Makes You Want to Be Humiliated

Chapter 283: By Wire (7)

Chapter 283: By Wire (7)

By the time I hurriedly got dressed and came out of the checkpoint, a considerable amount of time had already passed.

I thought it wouldn't be long, but more time has passed than I thought.

The expression that I lost track of time was just right.

However, there was no one at the place where we were supposed to meet with the other kids.

Did they move it somewhere else because it took too long? If that were the case, I would have at least marked it and left.

After waiting for a while, Flora came out with shaky steps, and then Asil walked out calmly.

... Although I walked calmly.

"You know. "You have something on your mouth."

"Yes?! Ah, haha. Did something like dust stick to it? Thank you."

When I pointed to the corner of her Asil's mouth, she was visibly embarrassed and removed her curly hair from the corner of her mouth.

She decided not to question in detail.

"It took longer than expected, but everyone passed, right? "Nothing was confiscated or taken away, right?"

"Yes."

"Yes."

They both nod their heads at my confirmation.

I wasn't particularly worried, but I still checked it out.

To be honest, there were some suspicious things among the items we had.

When I broke up with Sophie, a lot of the strange potions I received remained almost unused, and there were also a few items I had secretly obtained from the academy.

Is it okay to sneak peeks at Academy stuff like that?

Of course not. So, it was a sneak peek.

But what can I do?

What can the academy do?

You probably don't even know it's been stolen, so what can you do other than get embarrassed or embarrassed later if the item number doesn't match?

And it's okay because I didn't touch anything really valuable.

We are, in our own way, heroes who saved the academy.

It was obvious that if this was made public, the academy would be destroyed, with the students' families saying, 'My child was raped through hypnosis?' So I just passed it on quietly.

So it's okay to bring this much. Yes.

Coming back to the main point, all the suspicious or dangerous items I brought are in my inventory, so I don't have to worry about getting caught.

I just checked.

"Good. If nothing happens, that's the best. Then let's go in. "If it's too late, it might be in trouble."

"Are you in trouble? "What?"

"I need to get a room. "There was such a long line at the front gate, where would all those people sleep?"

I don't know, but there was a high possibility that there were no proper inns left in this city.

To be precise, the building that was originally an inn is probably already full of rooms, and since there are so many people coming in, it may be that there will be room left in an inn that entered the inn business because it was timing.

In the worst case, I might have to sleep on the street.

If you look around, you can easily find traces of camping tents pitched in places where the ground is flat and the surrounding area is spacious.

Even though she searched all over the city, she couldn't find a place to stay, so she ended up choosing to camp.

However, the fact that only traces of the tent remain, not the tent itself, does this mean that they spent the night here and left, or does it mean that they moved there during the day as an empty room became available?

If possible, it would be nice to have an empty room. Because we might still have a room left.

With that glimmer of hope in mind, we wandered around the city to find lodging.

?

"Doesn't exist... "

There was none.

It was time for the sun, which had been coloring the sky blue, to hide its head behind the horizon, and for darkness to slowly begin to fall.

The sky still maintains its dark blue color, and there is still some time left until it is completely immersed in darkness...

We still hadn't decided on a place to stay.

No matter where we went, every place with an inn sign on it was fully booked, and even in an old barn, there was no room for the three of us to stay together.

It was possible to stay in a barn if each person stayed separately, but it was better to set up a tent and camp.

Thanks to the generous investment in equipment, the camping equipment is as good as modern camping equipment.

However, preparing for camping is really annoying. Really.

This is something I want to avoid at all costs.

We were sitting on a chair in a market in the middle of the city, taking a moment to catch our breath.

As it is a city right on the edge of the front line, the market, with many people walking around, was still bustling even though it was getting dark.

Three pretty girls looking sadly at such a lively figure.

It wasn't that there were no people willing to provide accommodation.

The problem was that everyone was openly revealing their desires without hiding them.

He was not ignorant of the world's affairs to the point where he would naively follow people who showed in their eyes that they would do something in exchange for accommodations or while they were asleep.

... Ah.

"Huh? Why, Soira?"

"... No."

Before I knew it, my gaze drifted towards Flora.

If it's Flora... No, maybe it was the old Flora, but it wouldn't be like that anymore.

"Ha... "

No.

I'm tired and worn out, so I can only think of something good.

Although finding a place to stay was important, I needed to get some rest first.

"Let's eat something first and think about it. Even if I have to pitch a tent, I have to eat something to have the strength to pitch a tent."

"Eh... "

Asil was disgusted when he heard that he might have to pitch a tent.

Still, I didn't say anything in particular, perhaps agreeing with the idea of ??eating rice first.

Asil asked, patting the dust off her butt.

"So? What are you going to eat? Do you have something in mind?"

"I'll have to see what's on the menu."

I pointed to an inn not far from the market.

In front of the inn, like other places, there was a sign saying 'full occupancy'.

This was a sign I saw so much that I got tired of it while walking around the city today.

I was sick of it just looking at it, but fortunately it didn't matter that it was fully booked this time.

Because what we are looking for is a restaurant.

And I could tell through the slightly open door that there were seats in the inn's restaurant.

– Clink!

As we entered the inn, the small bell hanging on the door shook and made a sound.

The inn staff looked at us and looked perplexed when they saw that each of us had a backpack.

"I'm sorry, but there are no seats available at our inn right now... "

"Ah. Are you okay? "I came here for dinner."

"That's no problem! Welcome! "I will guide you three people!"

As soon as we realized that our purpose was not lodging but meals, our attitude change was extremely quick.

He was truly a professional in serving customers.

I sat down at the table shown to me by the staff and ordered appropriately.

Asil fell down on the table as soon as he finished ordering.

"Ugh~ I'm tired."

"You know, it's not polite."

"Dunno. Can't I just sleep here? I think I can sleep if we just put a few tables together."

"If you're going to sleep like that, how is it different from sleeping in a tent?"

"How are you feeling?"

What started as a nice chat gradually turned into a serious conversation.

"Soira. How are you going to collect information?"

"I know. Originally, I was going to just find a place to stay and start right away. "It's already been this long, so should I start tomorrow?"

"Can't I just go find it?"

Asil's question was plausible.

The information obtained from her saint included the name of a mercenary group. Was it definitely a 'red thorn'?

It is said to be a mercenary group that is gaining popularity in its own way, so if you ask around, there is a high possibility that someone will know where it is.

Besides, since it's a city in front of the front lines, you won't be particularly suspicious if you say you're looking to join a mercenary group.

... Huh?

Isn't this just the right answer?

When I thought about that, I suddenly became depressed and lost all strength in my body. Why did you give me a headache?

I leaned back against the back of the chair and closed my eyes.

"Uh? Well, what is it? "Did I say something wrong?"

"No, no. I think it would be best to just ask as you said."

"Yes? "I also do it when I have to."

"I see. "I saw it again."

"What do you mean by that?"

While I was bickering with Asil and joking around, the meal I ordered was served.

As I put the food in my mouth, I took advantage of the moment of silence to think about what I had to do next.

Unless I could find accommodation by this time, camping seemed unavoidable.

First, let's spend the night somehow, and then tomorrow morning, let's go to the adventurer's guild or the mercenary's guild or wherever and find the Red Thorn mercenaries.

After that... Well, it will work out somehow.

At some point, I planned everything and made moves.

After organizing things a bit, I felt a lot more at ease.

As I continued to eat with a light heart, I heard a loud voice behind me.

"Huh? Hey!"

However, this level of commotion is common in restaurants around the world.

Apparently, a famous person came, or something like that.

Without paying attention, I sliced ??the cooked meat just right and put it in my mouth.

The quality of the meat itself was acceptable, but the sauce had a special taste. The chef's skills seem to be good.

"I see you guys here again!"

However, the voice behind me only grew louder with no sign of subsiding.

As if it was coming this way... Oh, maybe?

It wasn't until I saw Flora and Asil looking behind me that I started to wonder.

I turned my head and looked back...

"I told you to come find me, but I didn't expect you to come today. "So you're thinking of joining our mercenary group, right?"

There was a pervert who was nude from the waist down and wearing a robe.

Now that I think about it, what was the name of this inn?

The picture of a fox in the corner of the plate on the table strangely caught my eye.
