18-32. Boy in the Labyrinth City (6)

"I'll go again!"

Gon was cursing because he couldn't harvest the Berea, but changed his mind when he realized that the other person would not change his mind.

This time, Gon and his buddies went to the back of the Alchemy Guild to borrow a basket.

"Isn't it tattered?"

"Wow, there's a hole in it. I don't think this one will work."

All the good baskets have been borrowed out and remaining had holes in them, and looked like they are about to break.

"At least some can be carried"

"That's right. It's better than wrapping it in clothes and carrying it."

Gon and Keros choose a relatively good basket and run.

"Is it alright?"

Sina seems uneasy with a tattered basket in her hand.

"Lend it to me for moment"

I easily repair it with a string made by picking up the straw that had fallen in the basket and twisting it.

"Wow, Sharon, awesome!"

"I did a lot of winter work in the village."

While I was working, I asked Lhasa to make a spare string.

I'm sure it will be needed by Gon and Keros.

?

When it was the second time to take the Berea, I got used to it and became able to do it a little faster.

This time everyone got a bronze coin. It goes without saying that the string I asked for Lhasa was useful.

"Okay, I'll go again!"

Gon, who got a bronze coin and felt good, rushed out.

We follow, but everyone except me seems to be starting to get tired.

That concern soon became a reality.

"I can not do it"

"I can't do it either"

First, Zaki and Keros went down.

"Sorry, I me too"

Next, it was Sina, despite doing her best.

"You guys are weak!"

Gon yells at the tired and depressed children.

"Let's do it with us only"

Working with Gon.

I know because I was stealing glances at him, but he has amazing power. I am confident that I will not lose in endurance, but his pure power is unrivaled.

I also have to build more muscle. My sister told me that I shouldn't do it, and she didn't teach me how to build muscle.

??If you train too much, you won't grow tall.

I ate quite a bit, but I was told that and gave up.

"Okay, this is enough for the number of people."

Gon said so, packed the leaves in a basket and ran energetically.

"Us too …"

"Wait, Gon"

"Such great physical strength"

Keros, Sina, and Zaki, who had returned to work on the way, wandered behind Gon.

"… demon of physical strength"

Lhasa stands up unsteady while cursing.

"Wait, Lhasa. Let's take a break."

My legs were tired, so I suggest it to Lhasa.

"Okay, okay."

"We shouldn't overdo it. We have to figure out our pace at first."

I persuaded Lhasa, who was stubborn, by saying so.

"……Do you get it"

I found myself tired more than I thought I would sit and rest.

I can't say anything about people …

China and others are also sitting over there. After all a break is necessary.

After taking a break for a while, I heard the lively voices of children.

"It's caught! It's a gerbil!"

"Yay!"

Looking around, younger children are doing something behind a nearby rocky area.

I was fascinated and went to see it.

"What are you doing?"

"Mousetrap!"

"It's an Alisa-style trap! You can get a lot!"

The children seem to be trapping mice.

Alisa is a legendary bancho and seems to be stronger than the Demon King. What is a bancho? [TR: Should not that be sukeban?]

Now that Lhasa can walk again, she picks up China and heads back.

As the leaves dried over time after cutting, the number of coins was reduced by one.

Gon and I went there for the fourth time, but the remaining four stayed in the city saying they couldn't do it anymore.

In one day today, I have 3 big copper coins and 4 copper coins, Gon has 3 big cp coins and 2 cp coins, Zaki and Lhasa have 2 big cp coins and 4 cp coins, and the least Keros has 2 big cp coins and 1 cp coin. …

It was quite difficult, but I think I made enough for dinner.

"Okay, let's go for a meal!"

Gon cheerfully commanded and started walking toward the stalls in the square.

?

As we approach the square, a nice scent drifts and everyone's stomach rung. I'm hungry too.

"Meat skewers Ume!"

"It's a size you can't think of as a single big copper coin!"

I bought meat skewers at the first stall that Gon and Keros found.

It looked so delicious that I lost the temptation and started to stick to the meat skewers.

I don't know what kind of meat it is, but it's delicious with precious salt.

It's a delicious mixture of gravy and salt that permeates the body. It's good to be a little burnt and fragrant.

"Eat China, it's delicious"

"I'll stop. If I run out of money, if I do it."

It seems that Zaki and Lhasa will save and so will China.

We eat meat skewers and buy a lot of soup and lightly baked bread together. Both are one big cp coin.

The soup contains pieces of potatoes and beans. It also contains meat, but only one or two small pieces.

Instead of lightly baked bread, Sina bought two boiled potatoes.

Gon said he wasn't eating enough and ate all the rest of his earnings by turning them into boiled potatoes.

"Is that you Gon?"

"--Ah? Brother Pique!"

Apparently, he is an acquaintance of Gon's hometown.

"Oh, did China also come to the labyrinth city! You guys don't have money?

"Really! Let's go, let's go! Let's go meet China!"

"Can I go too? I'm a friend of Gon and Sina!"

"Oh, I don't mind"

Gon and Sina were invited by an acquaintance in their hometown, and Keros took advantage of it.

"Will you come too?"

"I'm good"

"I'm full"

"I also want to bathe before it gets dark."

We were also invited, but Zaki, who was disappointed, refused, and Lhasa and I also refused giving a reason.

?

"Is it here?"

"There are so many people there, isn't it over there?"

When I came to the riverbank where I was taught in the guild, many explorers were cleaning off blood.

Lhasa and Zaki did the same.

"Let's take a bath early"

Zaki takes off his clothes and slips into a shallow river.

"Sharon and Lhasa come in soon! It's cold and comfortable!"

"In a moment!"

I fold my clothes, wrap my helmet and dagger, and use my sleeves to wrap them around my neck. I can't loose my sister's farewell gift.

Lhasa goes into the river with her clothes on.

"Your clothes will get wet"

"It dries quickly"

Lhasa washes her clothes and body.

Wet clothes stick to Lhasa's skin and show through. Even though we are men, I'm thrilled for some reason.

I shook my head strongly and washed my face with cold river water.

The clothes around my neck are messy.

I'll wash my clothes too.

"Hmm, it felt good."

Refresh and dry in the river.

"--Hmm?"

"What happened?"

"What is that?"

At the bridge on the upstream side, there is a cloth that is long enough to immerse in the river.

"If you value your life, don't approach."

A young man who was cooling in a nearby river warns.

"Hey, don't scare newcomers."

"It's okay, so go"

"Oh yeah, it's a courageous test."

The excited friends around the young man rush me and Zaki.

"No, I am--"

"Children are scared"

"I don't know. It's impossible for cowards."

"Go hide in fear in your mom's skirt!"

"I'm not a coward!"

Zaki, spurred on by the young people, walked toward the bridge.

"Hey, a little Zaki!"

"You should stop"

"Noisy, don't stop!"

Even if Lhasa and I try to stop him, Zaki becomes stubborn and doesn't stop walking.

I have no choice but to grab Zaki's shoulder to impede him.

"Release! --Ah"

"Wow"

Zaki turned on me and Lhasa, but we lost our balance and the three of us collapsed over the cloth.

--Skin color.

Under the dim bridge, there were many naked women.

"Wow!"

I hurriedly grabbed Zaki and Lhasa and rolled over the cloth.

"What? What happened?"

"It was a bathing place for girls."

"Uh, lie!"

Apparently, Zaki wasn't looking at the other side.

Lhasa witnessed the girls bathing, but it was calm.

"Except the death penalty"

"Deserves death"

A woman dressed in wet clothes came out from the other side of the cloth, squeaking her fingers.

From between the legs of the bridge and the cloth, the girls are looking at me with only their faces. An angry face, a shy face, a disgusted face, and so on. Many children are angry.

"Sorry, I'm sorry!"

Grab the heads of Zaki and Lhasa and lower them together.

My head was roughly pulled up and my cheeks were stretched. The field of vision is blurred in an instant, and it is struck against the surface of the river. The taste of iron spread in my mouth.

Apparently, I was slapped and fell into the river.

"I'll forgive you for this for today."

"Anyway, you were fooled by the idiots, right?"

The scary women returned to the other side of the cloth, saying, "There is no next time."

Stroking the swollen cheeks out of the river.

"What? Why"

"I do not know"

Lhasa is unharmed for some reason.

Well, apart from me who saw naked and Zaki who caused it, Lhasa was just involved.

?

Next day--.

"I want to have a body"

The swelling on my cheeks has subsided, but my muscles hurts all over my body.

It seems that this way to use the body is different from field work.

When I fetched water and came back, everyone got up. Gon and his friends who went with their hometown are also back.

Other than me, who only had muscle pain, no one couldn't move.

Even today, I eat breakfast by cooking and gain the vitality to go to work.

"Let's do our best to mow Belia today!"

"I won't go"

"Me too!"

Gon and Keros refused strongly.

"What about other jobs?"

"We go to the labyrinth"

"Gon! Did you forget about the labyrinth? You decided to go to the labyrinth after you attended the class!"

I was surprised at Gon's words and came up with stronger words.

"We go to the labyrinth with an acquaintance of Gon."

"With yesterday's people?"

"That's right. It's okay because I'm with my brothers Pique."

"He's a veteran who has been in the labyrinth for two years now!"

Isn't it dangerous if you're with someone you're used to?

"Then they go to the labyrinth with their acquaintances, right?"

"Oh, that. I am too."

Sina says while hiding behind Gon.

Even if I'm not so nervous, I don't get angry about running through.

The Gon &co left for the meeting place, telling them to look forward to the souvenir story.

"What do you two do?"

I call out to Zaki and Lhasa.

"I'm looking for a job that's a little easier. It's hard to do that every day."

Zaki said so and went into the guild.

"Let's go, Sharon"

Lhasa seems to come with me, so I got a bill like yesterday, then rented a basket and went to the Berea field.

Even two people can manage it, but it takes time to cut thick leaves.

It took longer than yesterday to finish the first time.

About three times seems to be the limit today.

"It was no good!"

"Zaki?"

When I delivered the leaves of Berea, Zaki was waiting for some reason.

"What happened?"

"Calm down"

Ask Zaki, who takes a rough breath with Zeher.

I've never seen such a desperate Zaki.

"I cann't be calm! It's bad!"

??? In a certain village ???

"Hello, Reina"

Akindo-san is also polite to children like me.

It's been consistent since I first met him four years ago when I was two.

"Then, let's move on to business negotiations."

I open the item box and hand over the merchandise I took out to Akindo-san.

He can be trusted because he doesn't look down even when dealing with children.

"Seven gems and one gold nugget. The gems are beautifully polished and the gold nuggets are so pure that you won't be embarrassed wherever you put them. You raised your skills."

"Thanks to my unique skills. I'm not great."

Akindo-san is unusual, as you can tell the purity just by glancing at it.

Perhaps the fact that there is no way to hide it is a sign of trust in me.

"Overuse of unique skills--"

"I know"

I have no intention of becoming a demon king.

The final battle with Rom, who became a hero, is moe, but in this world I would like to go on a love affair rather than a battle.

"Is that enough?"

"It was a high-grade magic core and attribute stone? Which attribute stone do you want?"

"Yeah …"

If you want to cause a wind blade or cyclone, it's a wind attribute. And if it's a fire attribute, it's hard to throw away the explosive system, but from a practical point of view, Thunder seems to be most convenient.

"Thunder stone is good. If enough, water stone too."

I have an item box, but Rom also needs hydration.

"I have a lot of water stones, so I will accommodate you."

"Thank you, Akindo-san"

I got the long-desired attribute stone.

What are you doing, myself!

After completing the skit in the brain, I store the attribute stones and the magic core in the item box, and shift my gaze to Akindo-san who looks at this with kind eyes.

"I wonder if you can ask, Akindo-san"
