GO to the Guild!
After leaving Vazag’s residence, we arrive at a nearby town.
It’s a frontier town called (Neuville) which seems smaller in scale than other towns.
I had gone to the royal capital once for reconnaissance, but the people there always seemed in a rush, and it felt like there was no time to take a breather.
However, Neuville didn’t have such an atmosphere.
Almost as if time had stopped and was taking a leisurely stroll instead.
It’s a nice town.
That’s what my instinct told me.
I could definitely start my second life here.
The town itself gave me that confidence.
However, to do that I have to somehow get rid of these two…
“Ma~aste~er, make me your disci~iple.”
While locking arms with me, the one who lets out an infantile, spoilt voice was Pafimia.
Her eyes were soaked in tears, and she was wagging her tail wildly.
Ever since her first request in Vazag’s cave, this has continued on.
At first I thought it was a bit pitiful, but by now I’m simply annoyed.
“I told you, I’m undergoing training myself, I can’t take any disciples right now.”
On the way here, I had already decided my fake history.
I was training in the mountains but due to living expenses being tight, I decided to leave for the town to find work, which is when I encountered Vazag; and that’s about it.
I said it myself, but even I couldn’t help feel a few contradictions arise. Though it seems that the naive Princess, and the roughneck Hero have fallen for it hook, line, and sinker.
This was easy enough that it left me with a guilty conscience.
“In any case, thank you Sharon, Pafimia. For leading me to the town.”
“Not at all. If it’s compared to the debt we owe Capua-sama, it is still lacking.”
“Then, it’s farewell here.”
“Eeeh? Master, are you going to leave us here?”
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no…
Pafimia then hugs me tightly.
Her fur, is so soft~
It reminds me of Cerberus…
But don’t call me master so casually.
I don’t remember taking any disciples.
I look towards Sharon for help, but the Priestess only snickers.
“Capua-sama, you are looking for a job in this town, yes?”
“Yeah, what of it?”
“If so, I believe registering in the guild would be for the best.”
“Guild?”
“It’s a Professional Mediation Office. If you go there, they will introduce you to various jobs.”
“Ooh! I’ll go, I’ll go!!”
“Well, since we were also headed to the guild, how about coming together with us?”
“Huh? Weren’t you guys going to subjugate the demons?”
“Originally we were, but Pafimia-sama…”
Sharon quickly glances at Pafimia, who was still clinging to my waist.
I want her to release me already.
What’s more, her breasts are touching me…
“Master you know, please listen! I understood something from fighting Vazag. I’m lacking battle experience. Even if I take on the Demon Army, I may win against weak demons, but I might lose against strong demons.”
Well, she’s right.
Pafimia’s latent potential looks first-class, even to me.
Even with her current abilities, while us Four Heavenly Kings might be impossible, she might still beat the executive class below us.
Sharon take over the explanation from Pafimia, who has a poorer vocabulary.
“Which is why, we decided to let Pafimia-sama first collect battle experience, so we decided to work as adventurers in this town’s guild.”
“Adventurers…?”
“Yes. In place of the country, they defeat all the demon beasts along the country road, and travel to mountains and forests with roaming demon beasts, to harvest their body parts and collect rare herbs. We believe that becoming adventurers is the best way to earn battle experience.”
“That’s wrong Sharon, the best way is to become master’s disciple.”
“…In short, “since our destinations are the same, let’s go together part of the way” is what you’re saying?”
“Yes, you’re right.”
“Alright. Only until we reach the guild.”
“Alright! We’re together with master again!!”
Pafimia tightens her grip on me.
Ow ow ow! don’t squeeze so much!!
I get that you have monstrous strength.
“What a relief, Pafimia-sama.”
“Yeah. Thanks Sharon.”
The two showed carefree smiles on their faces.
