Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 296

He didn’t intend to just sit there without lifting a hand at the same time as he was hired, but Yan Tier started to take charge of the cooking, saying that today was the day to show off his skills. Asili also reacted quite awkwardly, but after hearing my absurd sophistry that we didn’t do anything because the stew we had been brewing for a few days was still left, we sat down.

It wasn’t an atmosphere where great high-end cuisine would pop out like you see in cartoons or novels. However, seeing that there was no hesitation in the exchange of ingredients and knives, it was clear that the proficiency itself was formidable. In fact, not long after she started cooking, the delicious smell came out, so our expectations started to rise as well.

“Yen? I think you could have found Eldi without Zicmel’s help, but why did you go there?”

While stroking Laika like that and thinking about when to go to the guild, Asilie was busy admiring Yan Tie’s ability and asked about something she hadn’t thought of at all.

Did you hear it?

“We have the order of first and last names reversed. If you could call me Tie, I’d appreciate it, Mr. Asillie. Most of the information about Eldmia-sama and her place of residence are disconnected, so it was impossible to trace in a short period of time.”

“…A link?”

“It’s a technique to find your own information, but… information that should be connected properly is suddenly cut off and connected to the wrong information, or similar but completely different information is intentionally spread.”

I looked at Asilier to see if he knew, but she also responded that she hadn’t heard of it, so we were able to form a stable bond of sympathy. Yes, we are adventurers, not informants or stealth.

“Usually, the person who cut the link holds the information, and that was the case this time as well. Zicmel-sama did it.”

Oh my goodness. Since Jicmel seems like a competent guy.

It is highly likely that he did this because his life could be in danger if more people like Yan Tie were looking for my information! As a result, I got a reflective benefit, so that was fine. I’ll have to visit you later on the excuse that I used the gift well and give you a little bit of trouble.

“He’s a very competent person. If I can keep a good relationship with him, I’m sure it will be a useful connection.”

Yan Tie continued to cook, bringing up various stories after that. Instead of forcibly revealing secret stories, conversations about everyday topics such as What vegetables are cheap this winter flowed very naturally. Thanks to this, we didn’t have time to get bored while the dishes were being prepared, so we tasted the food she served and thought that we were really good at not kicking Yan Tie by force.

I was worried about what to do while resting at home, but I have to learn to cook from him.

?

I spent every mealtime learning to cook from Yan Tie. On the third day, I decided to visit the adventurer’s guild as she advised when I first came.

Not for any other purpose, but because moths started to sting.

“Still, since I was at home for two days… I’ve endured it well.”

When I declared that I would go out while eating breakfast, Asilie, who had barely managed to finish her meal with a drowsy face, said as if she was proud of me.

“Nuna? Who would have thought that if they heard it, they’d say that every day goes by and only go outside?”

“Your sister can’t remember when Eldi was at home for more than two days.”

“That…is…”

It is logically correct, so I can’t refute it. After we found our house, we had to go out every day. Even when he was in the Ogatorf family, after Asilie joined him, he seems to have been busy every day and spent more days outside than at home.

what? Aren’t I living too hard?

“Well, it’s not that I’m sick. It won’t be a problem if I move.”

While reflecting on and admiring her own crazy behavior, Asilie lightly shrugged her shoulders and agreed, and Laika, who naturally had to play at home since I was stuck at home, was delighted.

After the Eoyeongbuyeong breakfast was over, I put on my clothes and gear for going out for the first time in a long time, and I opened the door happily and had to close it again.

“It’s filthy cold.”

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been sitting by the stove for two days and reading the documents of the Holy Light Cross, or if it’s because winter has arrived in two days, but it’s cold anyway. In the end, I was able to get out of the house only after taking out and putting on a thick winter coat that I hadn’t had to wear for a while because I was wearing expensive clothes and capes made by dwarf artisans recently.

[walk! Excited!]

“…Aren’t you cold?”

[It’s not cold!]

Thanks to Yan Tie brandishing the broom every day, there was a clean path leading to the road in the yard. He would have been cute even if he couldn’t communicate, but he’s twice as cute when he can talk.

“…Yes, I hope.”

As I step out into the streets, looking with satisfaction at the idyllic scene he creates, I see the bustling capital city, ignoring the cold of winter. As I walked in the direction of the guild, enjoying the strange pleasure that the fact that I was taking a leisurely walk alone while everyone else was busy working, I began to see the surrounding scenery one by one that was slightly different from my last memory.

“It’s the same in any world that changes quickly.”

It wasn’t just the scenery that changed. The look of caution towards me and the atmosphere of looking at Laika and me with questionable glances were also different.

In that short period of time, the notoriety of the guillotine was diluted like alcohol. Maybe the rumor spread that he went to another city because he was taking a break from his adventurer job. Rumors may have spread that he died somewhere.

What is certain is that the gaze towards me has changed to a close to indifference.

“In the end, that’s about all the rumors flowing in the city.”

It didn’t matter anyway, but it was a bit disappointing that there were no cases where the road opened on its own like before. I mean, it was comfortable.

In the meantime, the Adventurers Guild, which arrived after seeing the fun of Laika, who was excited about the world, and looking around, was crowded with adventurers from the morning.

“Has the activity limit fallen already?”

It may be that the guild’s efforts to prevent adventurers from freezing to death while moving long distances in the winter have already begun, but there were a lot of people for breakfast, even if it wasn’t to the extent that there was no space to step on. Among them, there were people who had been drinking and eating since morning, and there were even adventurers who were displaying and selling miscellaneous items on their tables.

The former is something you usually see, but the latter is a little different. This was because middle-aged adventurers, who usually gained a certain level of proficiency and maintained profits by receiving long-distance requests, offered cheap consumables or items with an expiration date that they could not dispose of before taking a break.

There are various reasons, such as it is annoying to bargain with merchants to sell things that are not used much, or to give advice to inexperienced adventurers while drinking moderately and sell them cheaply. Since it’s not intended to offend anyone, the guild won’t say anything if you order good food like that.

Putting a behavioral restriction in the first place means not dying while fooling around, so isn’t there any reason to stop new adventurers from getting cheap advice and stuff?

“Leica, come here. You will be stepped on.”

It was good to hug Laika, who approached without saying anything, but after he came, the reason to talk to the guild leader was ambiguous. He approached me and said, ‘You said you wanted to talk to me?’ When I say the same thing, it seems that there is no particular interest, and it is ridiculous to snoop around. In the end, since Yen Tie only heard rumors, it’s impossible to know if I’ll try to talk unconditionally just because I’m here.

“Ah, request.”

There are always simple quests that can be solved within the city, so if you pick up an appropriate one and talk to the receptionist, a rough estimate will come out. If the guild leader finds it, talk to him and say that the request was an excuse, and leave it behind.

Admiring his own wit, he headed to the request board, which was crowded as usual today, and the adventurers full of dissatisfaction with each other, rubbing here and there, raised their voices. Even though there are three bulletin boards, it looks like that. It’s not that he doesn’t know how to find a good request, but it’s a look that makes me wonder if there’s a better way every time I see it.

I’m reluctant to join because it seems like I’m rushing into the discount event with my eyes closed, but since the requests are posted in an urgent order, if the place of request has fallen off, the guild members come and fill it up again, so people don’t fall out just because they wait. The first time I came here, I wondered when people would fall in, so I looked around, and it was quiet after an hour or two.

“Aww, it’s passing.”

In the end, the only thing you can do is get rid of it with your body. Holding a Leica in my arms did not cause any flaws in my physicality, and if I decided to push in, all the guys with smaller heads and smaller shoulders than me would inevitably be pushed away.

“Ah! What!”

“Oh no! Don’t push me!”

Of course, only complaints pop out, but is there anything special? It has been like that until now, and it will continue to be like this, because it is a request bulletin board of the jungle. By the time I reached the bulletin board, someone grabbed my shoulder.

“This bastard, is it all if you imitate the guillotine?”

The moment I turned my head, wondering what was going on, what I was greeted with was not a disgruntled look at me, but a fist flying in a neat parabola.

In that short moment, so many thoughts passed through my head, but it was advantageous to be hit first, so I decided to be hit quietly.

pug. The temperature of the other person I felt on my cheekbones along with the sound was a little more unpleasant than I expected.
