Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 61

Even though we returned to the capital early in the morning, our party continued into the evening.

really. I had to suffer to the point where drinking to the point of being really muddy was an apt expression.

Gaendal was unstoppable on the subject of being drunk, Gin was sober, and Ekatrina was a real natural drinker. In my entire life, I’ve never seen anyone drink as well as her except for the one sitting next to me.

“Gweeeeeek…”

Fortunately, unlike Gaendal who is vomiting over there, I did not vomit, but it is hard to deny that the world is spinning and I can’t control it unless I move like controlling my hands and feet. When I accidentally stumbled once, a reliable arm supported me. When I turned my head, there was Ekatrina smiling brightly with a face flushed from alcohol.

“Haha! Unlike fighting like a ghost, you have a cute side, Eldmia! Are you stumbling around already?”

“Lellie… tell me quickly that you drank enough. This person doesn’t understand.”

Except for the fact that I almost fell for her because she was so trustworthy, I somehow managed to get myself together with her help. Rellie, who had the least amount of alcohol in the group, and Gin, who was still in good shape despite drinking the most, looked at us and laughed.

“Really…Kasha! You’re drunk too! Wake up!”

“Huh? I’m pretty well?”

“What is fine!”

Still, Rellie approached, calling Ekatrina by an unidentified nickname, possibly drunk, and pulled out Ekatrina who was supporting me. Even in the midst of that, I didn’t let go of the hand that supported me, so I almost collapsed, and Ekatrina and I burst into tears.

why is that funny? I don’t know either. Ekaterina is laughing, but I’m just laughing too.

“Haa. Anyway. Everyone worked hard. I’ll see you one more time anyway because of the reward, but there’s no reason to put off saying that you’ve worked hard just because of that.”

Maybe it was because he had regurgitated it once, Gaendal, who had become more alert, said while wiping away his tears.

“Hmm. It was a really pleasant request. Everyone, if there is a chance, let’s do it again.”

“ha ha ha!”

“Noisy! Stop laughing!”

In the end, it took a little longer to break up, but we were able to part with a smile.

“Huh. Now I’m going to live.”

He was such a good person that I wanted to actively build friendships even though I had work to do. Thanks to that, my steps toward the mansion were light for the first time in a while.

“You’re coming in very excited.”

But for some reason, as soon as I passed the garden, I had to become Eldmia, a crow.

It is unfair.

Didn’t I just come back from work? Why did I end up in a situation where, as soon as I got back, I was on my knees in front of Cheryl, who was so sharp, and bowed my head as if I was guilty?

“I heard that you returned to the guild early in the morning?”

“It did?”

“But why are you coming in now?”

It was like asking why I didn’t come home right away after leaving work. There was no reason for me to be treated like that, but I couldn’t help my shrunken voice.

“No… that’s… they’re very good as party members… so there’s something for long-term friendship…”

“Is there?”

“That’s why we didn’t just have an after party… Since we did a lot to take care of the hardships we had in the guild… Should we just say that coming was like that…” “…Hmm

.”

After answering hesitantly, the cold pickled radish eyebrows seemed to have softened a little.

“In four days, I have to follow Ragnis to the capital, so in the meantime, take care of yourself while resting.”

Even though she is clearly telling her to rest, Noble Cheryl’s tone is overbearing, making her feel like she’s sitting on a cushion of thorns. Seriously, what kind of tone does a kid make people have a hard time with using three different accents?

Anyway, Cheryl got up and went into the mansion, as if the purpose was to deliver the words.

But how did he know that I would come at this hour and he was waiting here?

“……”

This employee must have told me.

With the help of alcohol, I tried to avoid reality, returned to the dorm, cleaned up my clothes and equipment, and lay down on the bed to sleep. Thanks to the magical treatment of washing in the bathroom provided by the guild, I was able to fall asleep without any worries about the laundry.

?

After that, time passed unexpectedly without much happening. Today, the second day, there was a call from the guild, so they all gathered together, but that was only to receive one gold coin that they normally received.

“I’m sure there are additional rewards… but I guess it’ll take some time.”

I wasn’t really sure why it took so long. It was our common opinion that if there was an explosion like that, it would have been observed in some form, so if we waited, of course, there would be a reward. So after a few days of gathering, we rented a sparring ground behind the guild, sparred amicably, and parted ways. Inevitably, the magician, Lellier, looked moderately pleased, but seemed to enjoy it.

“Then let’s go.”

“i look forward to.”

Unlike the others who broke up like that, Gin is on his way to the Adventurer Earth with me.

Borrowing his keen eye as a dwarf, he wanted to get a new sword, so he asked for it, and Gin readily offered to help, even though the story suddenly came out during sparring.

Jans’ long sword was impossible to regenerate no matter how hard he tried, so it ended up being sold for scrap metal.

“It wasn’t a bad sword, but it was a disappointing sword for those who use Aura.

“It’s because that’s the only sword I’ve ever properly touched in my entire life, but is there a difference?”

“That’s great as it is. Of course, there is a difference. Without that difference, all Dwarves would be fraudsters.”

Gin, who smiled brightly, led me to a dwarf district I had never visited before.

It was quite large because it was close to the place where some of the skilled Dwarf artisans were fostering human apprentices, and it was a place where not only adventurous equipment but also precious metals were touched, so it was a difficult place to come to normally.

Would you say it feels like some kind of luxury store? Most of the things that look unconditionally expensive even if you look around.

After passing through the displayed items and entering the entrance of the smithy, one of the dwarves who was eating something like dried fruit while watching the apprentices working in front of it shouted brightly.

“Hey! Isn’t it a long time! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you! It’s been 20 years?”

In case someone isn’t a dwarf, you talk about 20 years as if it were 2 weeks. However, the fact that Gin came here proudly means that he knew that he had been working here for more than 20 years? It seems that not all dwarves know each other intimately, but Gin might have surprisingly wide feet.

“Has it already happened? Then you wouldn’t have told me that I was an adventurer?”

“What? Really? Since when?”

“It’s only been a few months. Now you’re a blue-level adventurer.”

It was the first time I had heard of it, so I was surprised along with the Dwarf craftsman. No, what the hell are you doing, so you can say that you are trying to be an adventurer as a hobby? I wonder if all dwarves are like that, but looking at that person’s reaction, I don’t think that’s the case again.

“Huh. Why did you want to stay still for a while, then suddenly become an adventurer when you’re old?”

“Thanks to you, I see a lot of fun things and live. Anyway. Give me a sword, this friend. It’s hard to find a friend like you when it comes to making swords that fit humans.”

The Dwarf craftsman looked at me with pity as I stumbled as Gin hit my back with his thick hand and greeted me with a smile.

“Hmm? Oh, it must have been a colleague. It was nice to see a friend after a long time, so I excused myself. He says to call him Valkun de Marley. Just call him Valkun.”

“My name is Eldmia Ega. Nice to meet you, Mr. Valkun.”

Valkun, who started looking at me as if he was very interested in a simple handshake, burst out laughing and said to Gin.

“You’ve brought a very unusual friend. You still look young. How long have you been swinging your sword?”

I don’t know how far they understood it, but Balkun and Gin laughed as if they were having fun, and they only giggled and stroked their beards.

What. Let’s laugh together too.

“You have something to do with these people.”

“I also wanted to be an adventurer, so I thought it was right.”

Valkun, who had a conversation that only they could understand with me left behind, thought for a moment and then went inside the smithy.

“I don’t doubt Mr. Gin or Mr. Valkun, but what kind of conversation are you talking about?”

“Isn’t it easy to be that strong at your age? That friend’s hobby is a warrior with a promising future, not making a situation where he dies because of a weapon. It just made me look forward to the future.”

“It’s a long-winded and grandiose hobby.”

“Chuck. I mean.”

I couldn’t bear to ask what the achievement rate of that hobby was, so I took out a pipe and dazed for a while as he started smoking, and soon after, Balcun came out again with a long sword in one hand. Unlike the items on display outside, it was a simple sword that had no decorations and made me wonder if they were making something like that here.

But I think it’s the same length as the one I used?

“Take a look. It will be similar to the weapon you used.”

“Oh my God? How the hell did you know?”

“I’ve been doing this for years, but if you don’t even know that much, that’s a dwarf or an idiot.”

Unlike him who giggled, I couldn’t help but be surprised as if I had seen some real magic. Is this the power of time?

“I don’t know anything else, but I’m strong. I only get one gold coin.”

Without hesitation, he took out a gold coin from his pocket and handed it to him.

“You don’t even bargain?”

“I’m not an ignorant guy who bargains for things that the Dwarf handed over directly.”

“Heh heh heh! What a fun fellow! I like it!”

Dwarves have an interesting custom. It is a custom that when selling something to others, never directly hand it over unless it was made by oneself. Even if you don’t like the completeness even a little, you don’t hand it over directly. Just put it on the shelf and let them take it away.

But you can buy the sword that the dwarf gave you with one gold coin? I can confidently say that there is not a single gold-coin weapon out there that a Dwarf can directly hand over.

It’s so cheap that I can’t express everything with words that I received a discount from an acquaintance, but why would I hesitate? Anyway, the reason I save money is to get good equipment and secure my safety.
