“Chapter 206: The Village of the Hot Springs”
Exactly ten minutes later.
– Takaya, we’re almost at Wols. (Rifaiv)
– Right, thank you.
– I hope we get to talk again. Have this. (Ralph)
Ralph handed me a coin with a dim blue glow.
– Is this… Mithrio!? I can’t possibly take it, mithrio is stupidly rare.
– Really? Doesn’t seem like enough payment for a contract with you.
A contract?
I guess after finding someone who can do maintenance on his weapons he really doesn’t want to let me go.
– Fine. But please, bring one weapon at a time. I can’t fix that many at once.
– We got a deal then.
I looked over and saw the boat was already positioned above our destination.
The clouds had also cleared out completely. Piece of cake for a sage, I guess.
– Takaya! Look over there! (Meirir)
Spread beneath us were countless settlements scattered around a volcano.
All the villages added together were ten times the size of Bay Road.
– Do I smell hot springs? (Takaya)
– Spot on! There are lots of hot springs surrounding the volcano. (Meirir)
A bath sounds nice, actually. I haven’t had a proper one since I came to this world.
There is a common bath in Bay Road, but it’s always crowded, so I end up leaving before even entering the water.
– Dyke, can you house everyone at your place? (Meirir)
– No. I don’t want to. Why me? Takaya would be happier staying with you anywa-GWUH!?
Meirir’s fist connected with Dyke’s face.
– My house is cramped and you know it. Just do it, honorable son.
– Honorable son? Is Dyke’s family rich or something? (Takaya)
– Well… You’ll know once we get there. (Roar)
Clinging to an annoyed Dyke, we rode on the dragons to go back to the ground.
– See you later, Takaya! I’ll tell Shiori about our conversation. (Rifaiv)
– Don’t forget about our contract! (Ralph)
– Thank you! Take care!
