Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 16
14 years.
Looking back, it was a life in which I had never truly enjoyed a break.
It was like that before I was 8 years old, and nothing to say after that. It’s because spending time with dreams and expectations has just changed to spending time with anger and venom.
If you put it well, you wrote it densely and well, and if you say it badly, you abused yourself close to child abuse. As I pushed myself to the point where I wondered if I had some kind of obsessive compulsive disorder, I decided to just take this opportunity to rest.
“It’s a tour!”
After completing a brief business at the Adventurer’s Guild, I unilaterally declared to Ragnis.
“Why did you go to the adventurer’s guild?”
“Nothing special. I was just asking if the number of adventurers I haven’t seen has increased recently.”
As long as they are aiming for kidnapping, there are only a limited number of people in the industry they can use. No matter how many guards there are, they are either mercenaries or adventurers. Thieves become a risk even entering the village, and if they are caught on the way, they can blow their back without a chance to use their hands. Those who have to pay a lot of money to hire them leave traces and make it difficult to clean up later.
It is a world where it is possible for an expensive person to slit his employer’s throat if he vomits himself. You can’t use someone like that carelessly.
The more kangies there are, the more they want tails that can be easily trimmed.
Bribing the receptionist sister with charms and snacks and checking the information every day was the first step in my future routine. The information I heard today was ‘there were no new faces.’ As far as I expected, I decided to enjoy the tour without any regrets.
The Ogwen tour that started like that was a more pleasant experience than I thought.
Even if it was a place I didn’t normally go to and I didn’t have to go, if there were a lot of people, I would go and see it. The shops catering to adventurers had a lot of stuff from food to equipment that was a bit pricey but generally unheard of, and it was quite a pleasant experience for both of us to browse.
“Have you been to this place many times?”
“No. Not at all.”
As I led so unrestrainedly, Ragnis the Braveheart, who was enjoying this walk, not caring about the situation he was in, asked a question.
“Huh? Didn’t you know?”
“I just knew it was there. What was the point of me coming here?”
Asilier gives me information that can be called essential tools or adventurer honey tips anyway, and I have no reason to buy armor and other equipment as I am still growing up. Other than that, everything else was meaningless, even though I might buy it later. In fact, if I hadn’t had an opportunity like this, I wouldn’t have come to visit them until I was 16 years old.
But even if you said you were going around like a lover, wouldn’t there be a dating course or tourist attraction in a city that is just growing into a fortress city? I don’t know if it was there from the beginning, but there was no such thing in Ogwen, and now that it’s wartime, there’s no room for making something like that in the border city. Well, I don’t know what it would be like later when the adventurer’s guild grew and the floating population increased, but it wasn’t yet.
In the end, there is nothing to do other than eye-shopping and enjoying something new.
Still, you can buy chocolate or sugary snacks that are hard to eat at shops that specialize in adventurers, so this area, which is surprisingly close to an adventurer’s district, was perfect for a date course.
“Anyway, I didn’t know how to sell these things to adventurers. After all, do adventurers make a lot of money?”
“What, chocolate?”
Ragnis nodded his head as he looked at the candy store in front of him where he saw a billboard advertising chocolate.
“Yeah. The sweets are the same.”
“Because sweet food helps if you use your head a lot. It’s high in sugar, so it doesn’t rot easily, and chocolate is high in calories, so it’s not bad as an emergency meal. Rather than making a lot of money, isn’t it more like a first-aid kit for them?”
Potions exist in another world, but they are expensive. From low quality to high quality, everything is just expensive. They range from insane effects that regenerate wounds in an instant like trolls to nutritional supplements that you drink before bed, but they are expensive.
After all, unless you are an adventurer who has reached a certain level, you have to endure with food, herbs, folk medicine, and medical knowledge, just like in your previous life.
Ashley too enthusiastically educated me on the medicinal and poisonous herbs found in the forest. He really taught me everything from elves’ folk remedies to adventurers’ popular folk remedies. Some of them were a little close to superstition, so I had to filter out the folk remedies of adventurers.
“Something is very systematic. But isn’t chocolate expensive? You use it as a first aid kit?”
“It just caught on. Sister! Just give me two chocolates!”
“Sister? Ho-ho. Just give me 9 fairy tales.”
“dong?!”
“As expected, the pretty sister has a good heart. Thank you!”
He received two pieces of chocolate that looked like they were about half a nutritious gang from a woman in her 40s, handed one to Ragnis, and chewed on it. hmm. Roughly, it seems to be between 85% and 99% cacao.
“Huh? Fairy tales? Nine?”
“Originally, there are 10 of them. The taste knows the answer, so try it, lady.”
I know what you’re worried about. I’m sure the chocolate I originally knew could only be eaten with silver or gold coins. However, even if you realize that the quality is different from the chocolate you used to know, from a commoner’s point of view, it would be difficult to understand that something as small as this is worth 5 fairy tales. It was enough money to pay for two meals a day, lodging, and a trip to the public bath.
However, unless you’re a newbie adventurer, it’s not too expensive for an adventurer whose activity level is so intense that you need something like this. That’s why you can do business with adventurers.
After thinking about it for a while, Ragnis’ face contorted at once as he boldly chewed on the chocolate he was holding.
“Ugh.”
“The raw material of chocolate is not sweet. This is also sweet. The chocolate you ate…is a dish made extremely sweet through a series of processes we don’t know about.”
Well, the taste is no different from the previous life, and it was actually like that. If Ragnis was an aristocrat, she might have spit it out right away, but now she couldn’t spit out the food worth 5 fairy tales, so she chewed it and savored the taste. Is this why you feed your kids cacao? It’s fun to see the reaction.
“Hmm…At first, it seemed like it was just bitter, but surprisingly it seems to be okay. The sweetness isn’t overly sweet.
Contrary to my expectations after waiting for complaints for a long time, Ragnis, who showed expression sooner than expected, devoured the chocolate very deliciously as soon as he got used to it. oh my god.
Still, he seemed to be enjoying himself, forgetting that he was in a pretty serious situation, so he was satisfied and moved on.
◈
After that, I wandered around like that for four days. There wasn’t much new. After all, there was a limit to outings to the border city.
Still, after eating this and looking around, Ragnis, who was stiff at first, came naturally into his arms and began to imitate his lover quite well, and time was passing smoothly as always, so there was nothing wrong with it. It was a moment when I was contemplating whether I should feed Ragnis something strange again today after spending the day without fail.
– Took.
“ah.”
A passer-by bumped his shoulder. To be exact, it was at the level of passing by and touching it. Because I don’t have the hobby of hanging out with people. However, the death sentence that follows is unusual.
oh maybe not Childish and obvious…
“Oh fuck my shoulders are sore.”
murmurs that followed. muttering? No, it would be more correct to say that it is just a precursor to raising one’s voice.
It is a line that is so certain that even adventurers walking around react immediately. Astute adventurers open their eyes wide and look forward to the messy mess that will unfold in the future.
Yes…If you have to put it that way, these are the gloves that nobles throw for a duel.
Lines that play a role like gloves in the world of bullies…
Ragnis was walking with a smile on his face, not imagining that it was a story he was telling us, and I didn’t have the will to stop on purpose, so I rolled my head as I went along. .
bully? well. They don’t have the pulpit to act as gangsters in an area teeming with adventurers. A pure idiot with no ties? There is a possibility, but even those kids don’t touch the villagers. Why would you choose to be caught by the guards?
“Have you seen this crazy bastard? Hey you bastard! Doesn’t it look like he’s wearing a knife?! My friend’s shoulder got a harpoon?!”
After judging up to that point, I woke up to the realization that there was no reason to worry.
wait? If you’re a bully, you can beat me, even if you’re an adventurer who’s making a nonsensical dispute like this, you can defeat me, and even if you’re hired by the aristocratic faction, which was your goal, you can defeat me?
At the same time as the sudden realization, the bad Eldmia and the worse Eldmia rubbed their noses and smiled.
It was an evil smile, as if it was mocking me for worrying like Mojiri.
– Whooping sick.
-Whoops.
I won… What the hell was I trying to think about, even I laughed out loud. At the same time, he could see that he was moving backwards with hurried, furious steps.
-chin!
“Fuck, my ears are blocked…”
The moment a hand came up on my shoulder like that.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!”
“Huh? Huh?”
“Eh, Eldmia?!”
I apologized in my heart to Ragnis, who was startled and frightened, and took action.
“It’s scary!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!”
“Huh? This, Mr., what the fuck…”
And with only the power of a purely trained body, he shows his man’s romance toward the face he sees as soon as he turns his body.
A real man’s punch that he bends down, twists his whole body, gathers all his strength into one fist, and even draws in anger and passion to wield.
by name! Galactica Phantom!
“What are you, you fucking bastard!!!!!”
A phone punch or whatever, you just have to hit it faster than you can react!
– Quaang!
An unidentified man with a fist stuck in his face falls down without even screaming at the sudden shock, and then starts to struggle belatedly.
“Keep, keke!!”
“I have to apologize to my smashed shoulder before honey street like a pig.”
If you want to fight, you have to walk like this.
