Following Lapis, Loren went to a flower store. He had thought that they were going to some kind of dubious alchemy-related store or some back-street shop to buy prohibited items that if traded openly would make them criminals. So, when Lapis stepped into the store on the main street, rather than feeling a sense of anticlimax, he was suspecting that there was some kind of mistake. “Hello… Is there anyone in?” Lapis called out into the store very amiably, but there was no sign…-

“Now, Loren, what are we going to do now?” The amount of cash that Mills left behind was an alright sum, and would have been enough to fill the four people in Loren’s party up on food and drink. Of course, this was only if the four of them were all normal people. With a being who ate a nonstandard amount like Gula in their party, even if they were to have access to the entire storehouse of gold in some royal castle, only Gula herself knew if she would be truly full. “What can I do?…-

“It’s not that we haven’t heard that something is wrong in Suest.” Accompanied by Mills, who suggested a change of location, Loren and his friends had come to a stall in the plaza near the guard station. The owner of the stall did not give the same unnatural response as the residents of Suest that Loren and his friends had seen so far, which made them feel a little relieved. “We were just in the neighborhood on another commission, and thought that we’d take a little break. And…-

Loren and Lapis returned to the inn from the sewer entrance and welcomed dawn without a wink of sleep. As the sky brightened, they began to remove the threads that Nig had wrapped around the inn the previous night. They did not know what the spider’s intention was in sealing off the inn, but as long as there were people inside, they thought that they could not keep the inn locked up. Loren did not know how Nig felt about their action, but the spider did not act out of control and just clung to…-

At a quick glance, there were about a dozen people gathered near the inn. Though not that big of a number, it was quite many for a gathering in the middle of the night, and although no one was leading them, they all began to walk slowly in the same direction. Loren and Lapis followed the group while keeping some distance from them, hiding in the corners of buildings and behind trees along the street. The two tried to quiet their footsteps and not make any noises, but the group ahead of…-

After returning to the inn, Loren’s group carried the luggage they had brought to their rooms, down to the inn’s yard and tried to get permission from the innkeeper to use the yard. After all, even if they had food in their luggage, they could not eat them unless they were cooked. They could also ask to use the inn’s kitchen, but Loren felt awkward about asking to use the kitchen to cook their own food after refusing the meals provided by said kitchen. So he decided not to do it. They…-

After asking around, Loren’s group found an inn that had space to park their wagon. But as soon as they started talking to the innkeeper about getting a room, the innkeeper quoted them a ridiculous price. “One gold coin. There are four of you, so four gold coins.” “HUH?!” Gula, who was negotiating with him, shouted in a tone that could neither be described as surprise nor anger. Loren, who was standing by listening to the conversation, did not raise his voice, but he did…-

At dawn, Loren and his party departed from the north gate of Kapha in a wagon prepared by Ivy, and headed north. If it were the first time for them to visit such a place, the surrounding scenery might have been new to them and they might have been able to enjoy it to some extent, but for Loren and his group, it was a road they had taken not so long ago. As a result, they were just passing through the familiar scenery, with nothing to do during the whole ride. The same seemed to be true for Ivy, who…-

“The commission that I want you to accept is about solving an anomaly that is happening in a certain town.” After confirming that Loren was willing to accept her commission, Ivy began to explain the commission’s content. “Do you know that there is a place called Blue Desert north of Kapha, about three days’ wagon ride away?” “Yes, I do.” The Blue Desert mentioned by Ivy was a place that Loren and his team had stopped by on their way to the mountainous area separating the demon territory…-
