Chapter 230: Dungeon City Avering

Translated by Zzonkedd

The next morning, after an early breakfast, we dropped our house key off at the Merchants Guild before setting leaving Verulean.

Oh, just for everyones information, we had Soboro for breakfast. The rice bowl is topped with chopped lettuce, Soboro-style minced meat and soft-boiled eggs.

Everyone ate a lot, even more than usual since were going on a long journey soon. However, I made sure to eat less so that I dont get sick on the way. [6] I dont think Fer would appreciate me throwing up on him.

Since weve already said our goodbyes to Marks-san yesterday, we could leave right after dropping off the key.

I am really glad I made the decision to eat less breakfast today because Fer is going, really, really fast. Perhaps hes too excited about diving into the dungeons?

Since our party has really fierce members, not a single monster dared to get in our way. Which meant we reached the next city in record time.

Dora-chan took this opportunity to reminisce, Ah, this reminds me of that Troll last time. Those things look big and tough, but their heads are stuffed with grass! [5]

Thats right, we encountered one major enemy on our way to Verulean. [5] [6] Well, I said one major enemy, but it only stuck out in my head because of the quarrel Fer and Dora-chan got into later that made me remember it. I had to coax a sulking Fer later.

I had kind of forgotten most of the monsters we encountered. They mostly ended up being sources of meat or money to me except I try not to think of those monsters which could never be taken out of the [Item Box]

Speaking of which, I should try and do some trading since Im still half a Merchant. Thats right, lets go visit Averings Merchants Guild too. I want to do something normal while Im there.

The whole trip was relatively smooth. [1] The only exciting thing that happened was Fer leaping over some caravans moving in the same direction as us.

About five days later, we saw the high walls surrounding Avering City.

So, thats the dungeon city, eh?

As expected of a dungeon city, its rather lively, na.

The line of people waiting to enter the city is quite long. Similar to Doran. Looks like dungeon cities will always be popular with both merchants and Adventurers.

We may have to line up for a long time, so lets go now,

Umu,

~

Phew, were finally in.

It took us nearly an hour of queuing before we finally reach the city gates.

Suis fine because she naps in her bag, but I had a hard time trying to convince Fer and Dora-chan not to climb over the walls. [TZ1]

Its a stupid waste of time. Isnt it so much easier to just go over the walls?

Yeah! I can just fly over that thing! [5]

Yes, yes, getting in would be quick. But what if we get into trouble later? What if they dont allow us into the dungeon because we broke the rules? Trespassing or forcible entry into a city is a crime and the punishments are quite harsh.

Umu, well, I did not jump over the walls because of that. It would be a pity to miss the dungeon because of human pettiness.

Thats right, thats right, weve come all the way here just for the dungeon. So dont screw it up now.

It was tedious to stand in line, but it was finally our turn. Our entry was very smooth. [2] The magic of a golden guild card was quite strong. Nobody even questions Fer or Dora-chans presence.

Well, when they saw the S on the golden VIP card, Fer and Dora-chan did not get a second look, but I did. I got a second look and even a third look. [1] Sorry if this skinny looking guy doesnt look like an S Ranker Adventurer, but its true.

Anyway, I thought it was kind of rude for them to stare longer than 20 seconds.

At any rate, we got in.

The first thing I did was find out the location of the Adventurers Guild. Lets see, left from the gate and go on until I see a large building. [5]

Naturally, as the dungeon city guild, Averings Adventurers Guild was huge. [2] In fact, it might even be bigger than Dorans. The building looked pretty new too.

I entered with my familiars and showed the receptionist my Golden S Class VIP card and sure enough, the receptionist stood up with a please excuse me and hurried off.

She soon came back with someone

Ou! So youre Mukouda-san? Ive heard a lot about you from Marks. Im Nadia, the Guild Master of Averings Adventurers Guild. Its a pleasure to meet you.

I stood there in a trance. The woman before me appeared to be in her 30s with long wavy red hair. She looked very robust and tall. [1] When I say tall I mean hugely tall!

She has to be about 2 meters tall!

A 2-meter-tall beautiful woman sure packs a huge impact.

Gahahaha! I bet youre surprised at my size. Guys who meet me for the first time always react like that. If I leave you like this, youll probably be standing there in a daze for a long time.

Pushyuuu.

I felt something deflated. It was probably my ego, possibly my pride

Its kind of painful

Anyway, we have lots to talk about so come here!

I was literally dragged away by Nadia-san into the Guild Masters room. I look pitifully at Fer and Dora-chan who followed us with a bored look on their faces.

Fer, Dora-chan, I can count on you to protect me, right?

Right?

[TZ1: It would have been quite easier, right? :D]

[Gumihou: True, also, I dont think theyd get into too much trouble either. S Class Whatever is known to be wild and crazy, lol]
