Chapter 21.1: Floating Veil (2) Thank you to Havi for sponsoring 10 chapters! ^^

Under the contract signed with money, I had a more detailed discussion with the group of adventurers about the task to be commissioned.

Rodin, who had been listening to my story silently, asked in a puzzled tone.

“So… you mean you’re going to search all the peaks of the Tyrell Mountains?”

“Yes.”

Even if I said it, it sounded very absurd, but I couldn’t help it.

Unlike super-regeneration, the only topographical feature that I could remember about the location of the floating veil was that it was somewhere at the top of the peaks of a mountain range… and that it was probably a canyon-like terrain.

I might get a sense if I went and looked for it myself, but there was nothing else that came to mind right away.

In order to find this mystery, I had to be prepared to work even harder than during when I was looking for the super regeneration.

Still, one lucky thing was that the Tyrell Mountains were smaller than the Rutus Mountains.

“How long do you think it would take to go around all the canyons at the peaks of the Tyrell Mountains?”

Rodin let out a sigh and answered.

“It’s vague that I can’t get a proper estimate, but if I had to guess, it would take at least 15 days?”

Over a fortnight.

In fact, as he said, it was too vague, so in the end, it was something you could only be determined by going there yourself.

Rodin opened his mouth again and asked.

“But may I ask who you are?”

A client who asked for a guide in the mountains by paying a lot of money.

It would be natural for him to be curious about my identity, so I answered appropriately.

“I came from a family from another city nearby. It’s difficult to reveal my origin.”

“······Then why do you want to climb the Tyrell Mountains?”

“I’m looking for something.”

“What do you mean?”

“That would be difficult to say.”

“Ah, yes…”

For a moment, there was silence in the place.

Rodin and his members looked quite disturbed, as if they didn’t expect that they had to do this after accepting my request.

I took a money bag from my pocket and put five or six gold coins on the table.

They focused their attention on the gold coins piling up on the table.

“I’ll give you 30 gold right now as a down payment. I know it’s not an easy request, but you will definitely receive a good pay.”

“…”

“Still, if you can’t take on the request, I will understand. So, will you do it?”

Rodin, who was troubled, seemed to exchange glances with his members, and finally nodded his head.

“Do we only have to guide the two of you?”

Rodin looked back and forth between me and Asher, who was standing behind me.

I nodded.

He, too, nodded and briefly introduced himself and his members.

“My name is Rodin, the leader of the Blue Fox Adventure Team. And starting from the left, Arma, Lud, Baxter, and Shien…”

Five people, including two men armed with swords, shields and spears, a woman holding a bow, a woman who looked like a wizard because she was unarmed, and Rodin.

A woman carrying a bow called Shien smiled and looked at the gold coins piled on the table.

“In fact, there are no other adventurers around who are as knowledgeable about the geography of the Tyrell Mountains as we are. You really came to the right place, young master.”

“That crazy bitch, look at how she’s staring at the money…”

Lud, who was sitting next to her, spoke as if muttering, and then was slapped on the back by Shien.

I also simply stated my name.

“My name is Ron. This is Asher, my escort.”

“Yes, anyway, thank you. We will accept this request.”

Rodin’s blue fox adventurers eventually accepted the request.

***

It didn’t matter if we started right away, but they also needed to prepare, so I had an extra day of rest.

Early the next morning, the adventurers and I gathered in front of the eastern gate of the city.

There was no need for Baros to be there, so he stayed at the inn and only Asher accompanied me.

“Then let’s go.”

“…”

I could feel Asher looking at me strangely as I came out of the inn room.

She must be looking at the bows and arrows I brought.

In her eyes, I could see that she wanted to ask why I have to bring these items when I couldn’t even shoot properly, but I ignored it.

Who knew what other unimaginable dangers there would be this time, like Bellevagorah?

Even the slightest complacency could lead to death.

Preparing everything that could be prepared was the right attitude to survive in this harsh world.

“Are you here?”

He met the adventurers waiting in front of the gate and headed straight for the Tyrell Mountains.

Tyrell Mountains.

One characteristic of this mountain range was that there were a lot of Orcs.

Orcs were common monsters that could be found anywhere, but they were especially common in the Tyrell Mountains.

However, since they were only level 20 at the highest level, there was nothing to worry about safety.

A few hours after I started climbing the mountain range, I could keep pace with the adventurers without running out of stamina anymore.

And not long after, we encountered a group of orcs.

Quiik.
