“Good day, Gai-san…ahm, Gai-san, you’re from a nation in the east, aren’t you?”
“Mhm, yes.”
This was Gai-san, a member of the adventurer party led by Alec-san.
With his brawny physique, he was a monk who could fight in close quarters using his cudgel.
And apparently, he was originally from the eastern side of the mountain range.
His head was shaved, and he wore clothes that were apparently a clergy’s attire for the people in the east. Unlike Akane-san, he seemed to be from Kyou, the nation of faith.
“Gai-san, did you perhaps come here through the mountain range to the east?”
“Oh, no. I traveled here alongside my fellow monks not by land but by sea.”
“Ahh, I see.”
According to Gai-san, there were 3 main routes to arrive here from the eastern lands. There were basically 2 land routes: a direct path across the monster-infested mountain range, and a slight detour by way of the vast Rubul desert. The last route was by sea.
The journey for each of those routes was extremely harsh, but assuming good weather, the sea route was apparently the safest and most time-saving route.
“But then, why did you make that kind of dangerous journey in the first place?”
“It was because I was determined to spread Buddha’s teachings to the western lands no matter the risks.”
It would seem he was a missionary. I had never seen him in the act of spreading those teachings though…
“Village Chief, it’s dangerous to take what this guy said seriously.”
“Huh?”
The one to cut into our conversation was their party’s leader, Alec-san.
“What he said might be plausible for anyone else, but for this guy, I’m willing to bet good money he just heard someone say that the women here have large chests and butts. Despite what his appearance suggests, he’s not a devout monk; he’s a debauched one.”
“Ahh, is that so…”
When I asked for details, it was revealed that people from long ago who had journeyed to the western side and back had left behind documents which stated that the women here were more voluptuous.
“That’s why you left your hometown and made a dangerous journey…?”
“Women’s chests and butts are this world’s truths! I have no regrets on my choice.”
“Really?”
Then he really was hopelessly perverted monk.
“Anyway, it has been a while since you’ve seen your hometown, hasn’t it? We can fly like always, so it won’t take us that long…I’m just going to be honest: are you willing to be our guide?”
Gai-san looked toward the mountain range and contemplated.
“Hmm, the opportunity to come home quickly doesn’t come everyday, and it has been a while since I have been there. Very well, I shall be your guide.”
“Really? I greatly appreciate it!”
“Chief, that sounds fun, so don’t take just Gai, take us with you too. We’d just be taking a break from dungeon diving anyway if Gai’s going to be away.”
Alec-san said so.
“Sure, let’s all go together. Let’s say 3 days from now.”
As usual, we rode the flying park and departed from the village.
Including myself, there were ten of us on this trip. The others were: Selen, Millia, Philia-san, Selius-kun, Gori-chan, Alec-san, Gai-san, and the other members of their party which were Hazena-san and Dill-san.
This time, I wanted our group to be as few as possible.
We were visiting an unfamiliar land and would most likely be interacting with its people, so I wanted to avoid our group getting any larger than it had to be. But because of that, Coch-san who wanted to join to obtain ingredients had to be left behind. Maybe when another opportunity comes, I said.
“I’ve seen this thing fly many times before, but this is my first time riding on it…”
“Amazing, isn’t it…this would be so convenient in adventures…”
Yeah, now that I think about it, they haven’t traveled via the park before.
Alec-san’s party exclaimed so as they looked at the ground from the park’s edge.
“Mhmhhm, it has been so long since I visited the eastern nations, hasn’t it”
“You’ve been there before, Gori-chan?”
“Once, a long time ago. ♡ ”
“What route did you take to go there?”
“The sea. I went there by swimming across the sea.”
“Swimming…”
Gori-chan was as inhuman as always.
