Thirty minutes later, she was in a passenger carriage making its rounds within the city.

The wagon of the horse-drawn carriage could fit four people, and every seat was taken.

Nephren watched as the scenery flew past, her eyes gleaming all the while.

The majority of vehicles on Island No. 68, where the faerie warehouse was located, were transport carts. They weren’t for carrying people around at high speed. So for Nephren, who was raised on the island, the scenery scrolling past accompanied with the clattering of the cart was a whole new experience for her.

(Airships are probably in a totally different category for her…)

If she had a tail, it would most certainly be wagging back and forth. She was so happy that it gave him that impression. If rushing through Gomag, which didn’t have anything remarkable about it, was enough to make her this excited, he wondered how she would act if he took her to the capital.

He pulled his gaze away from Nephren and looked straight ahead.

There was Ted, clutching his stomach in a fit of loud laughter.

“…Is it really that funny?”

“Of course it is! Oh gosh, I wish I could’ve seen it. I probably won’t have the chance to see you so overwhelmed for a good while. I can’t believe I missed it.”

He had been acting like this ever since he heard about the incident at the Adventurers Guild.

Ugh, seriously, I want to punch him.

“I really underestimated how complacent things’ve gotten here. Had no idea the Guild’d be as lukewarm as that.”

“I mean, what can you do about it?” Ted said, wiping the tears away from his eyes. “There are no underground labyrinths here or any strong monsters living in the area. The really violent types transfer straightaway to Guilds in other cities where there’s plenty of work like that.”

“Regular people with common sense shouldn’t be Adventurers. They should get real jobs…”

“But the adventure, the ambition!”

I’m talking about you, Ted.

…Well, it was probably okay. He didn’t want the story of his embarrassing incident to drag on forever.

“But still. Are you really a Quasi Brave?”

The last of the four riding in the carriage, a woman wearing red, light leather armor sitting next to Ted, stared at Willem pointedly.

She seemed just a little older than he was, about twenty or perhaps a bit more. Even though he was used to inquisitive glances, when it was a girl so close to him both in age and proximity, it made him just a little restless.

“You’re all spindly, and your face has this blank look to it, and you even said you don’t have a personal Carillon.” She glanced at Nephren, who sat beside him. “And you take a kid along with you on your work. Put that all together, and you don’t strike me as very capable.”

Willem knew very well that there was no drive or power in his own outward appearance.

“Yeah. I hear that a lot.”

“Hmm. There’s not a lot of spirit in your answer, either. That’s no good. Men today need to be proactive to get what they want.
