“Hey, Locke. How’d things go?” We looked up as Isaac spoke and saw Locke returning from the group discussion. The coachman he’d been talking to was looking pale and vaguely sick.

They’d been talking with the merchant group about how to proceed. There were several issues, but the biggest one was food. They’d originally stocked up with plenty to spare, but they’d also expected to restock in Tenns, so what they had wouldn’t be enough for the rest of the journey.

The other issue was what to do with the surviving residents of Tenns. The merchants could transport them all if they threw out their stock, but that would just make the food issues worse and the escorts’ jobs harder. Besides, people not used to long trips would be a nuisance no matter how you sliced it. The fact that some of the escorting adventurers had already been careless on entering the village and gotten themselves killed didn’t make things any easier.

Incidentally, the passengers on the transport wagons, including me, hadn’t been asked our opinions on the matter. Isaac said that he’d told them I could fight, but since he was the only one who’d seen it, they didn’t put much stock into it. I was just a merchant, after all.

“We can’t come to an agreement. They want to press on, we want to help the villagers, and nobody’s budging. And that merchant group is...” Locke explained that the caravan accompanying us belonged to the Aurora Trading Company.

“Aurora Trading Company?” I asked in confusion.

Isaac seemed surprised by my reaction. Apparently Aurora was a large trading company with branches in multiple lands, famous enough that most people, especially in the Vossheil Empire and the Holy Kingdom of Frieren, should know about them. That went double for a merchant like me.

“Anyway, that’s probably why they’re being so bullheaded about it. I was actually surprised when they offered to start the discussion again in the morning.”

One of the transport wagon coachmen, Heil, had wanted to help the villagers because he knew the people of Tenns from his work. He’d been through this way many times before and had gotten to know the people here. However, several of the passengers had looked unhappy about the idea.

“The Aurora folks said they’d stand watch for tonight, so...”

We ended up moving to the inn, which had suffered relatively little damage in the attack. There was space there for the wagons, and rooms to rest in as well. And while reminders of the attack remained all around us, being indoors was a big relief. Even if we were attacked, Locke said, it would be easy to defend ourselves.

“Master, food?” Hikari asked.

“This is for Ciel. We have orc meat, but we can’t eat it right away, so try to hold off for now,” I said while patting Hikari’s head. I’d actually rather have had Ciel hold back as well, but I’d seen her watching on hungrily while the rest of us ate dinner.

Ciel happily munched down on the food I prepared
