Goblin Adventurer - Chapter 2 That Motto

The two Arrived infront of ‘Millenial Bookshelves’

“were here” Mei Ru

“yes, thank you” Guts

“eh?” she surprisingly asks

“hm? what?” he also surprise and look at her

“uh~, dont you want to, uhm~ you know to see other places first? Ill accompany you if you want, also dont you want to rent an inn? my friends father owned an Inn with cheap price but still had a surprisingly good meal” she panickly said

“oh okay? lets go then” Guts smilingly said, people here is very welcoming, he thought. When a Busy Receptionist still had a time to escort a Single Adventurer.

The two are walking side by side quietly but Mei Ru crash their quiet atmosphere with her question.

“ano, Guts-san” she pause and said “that thing on your forehead, that was Horn right?”. Mei Ru

(A/N: Im not a Japanese but I found that ‘-san’ is more cuter sound than ‘Mr.’)

“Yes it is, I hid it because one time a Human saw it, they panickly run” He said

‘Still, Isnt that obviously a horn?’ Mei Ru thought, but Guts still continue his story.

“Others unsheathe their weapon and ready to attack but when I said I will to be an Adventurer after crippling some of them, they Immediately stop and retreated.” Guts Narrated his experience from where he first saw some Humans and Human-kins on his eight day.

‘C–crippling them?’ Mei Ru thought.

Some people saw him in panic and some run wittless, some were surprise, some even tried to rob him but they get rekt in return, and a different group of scammer that he lost 2 Golds for carriage ride and another 1 gold for asking only the Direction of a City. A total of 3 gold coins consecutively.

Though they can give him the direction of a nearby Village, he asks is a ‘City’ and not a Village, so for 1 Gold they only point where the City is. he is indeed partially wrong, he accidentally hear those scammers talking about how great City a Kerashval is, great City this and great City that, and etc.

“fufufufufu” Mei Ru is chukling when she heared his ‘lucky’ Adventure.

“they are scammers to the bone, 1 gold for Direction?, ha ha ha… and you lost 3 Gold in one go?” she almost cry for stopping her laugh, but she cry out loud after that,

when Guts saw her beautiful face and her beautiful laugh he smile unintentionally.

Mei Ru looked him and saw his smiles then her face turning red.

‘is it him?’ she thought.

=====

“where here, this place called Kris Domain, there are so many cheap items and equipments here such as armor and weapon, garments and even accessories, but a good quality, some rarity can reach ‘Blue’ grade” Mei Ru said happily.

‘Grade?’ Guts asks another question from his thoughts.

Kris Domain, it is the land named after ‘Kris the Barbarian’, the Otherworlder Kris, after he become the Sole Survior and Winner of ‘The Gladiator’ on this City event hundred years ago, a Battle Royal which the Strogest Gathered, this piece of land was his sole Reward but because this Land was too big for his own good, he made it become a Market place with low taxes for poor, also because he himself is a ‘Poor’ from the start, he leave a word that struck everyones heart “only Cheap Price is here! those who over price, Fuck off!”

Everyone hailed him as ‘Hero’, especially by commoner up until now because of his overbearing personality by protecting the weak.

And until now, that was became ‘Kris Domain Motto’. and, this Land still prospering day and night that it renovated and looks like a Mall without a roof now.

And in this world there are rarity in every equipment such as White, Green, Blue, Red, Purple, Orange, for common people.

‘There are so many thing in the world that I need to learn’ Guts thought with decision to know all of this sooner than later.

“this is named ‘Domain’ but this is Market with a cheap price, you can buy here another set of clothes” she said and whisper “also your tattered clothes” shes curious on his clothes for quite some time now.

“hm, I profited 8 Golds for selling 3-Headed Bear loots, so I still have atleast 3 Golds” Guts smilingly said

“oh? … EHHHHHH?” she pause and cried out loud that they catch some attentions, but its good because of this area is noisy around this time.

“Tell me, is it 5 meter tall? has 6 arms and 3 tail of a Lizard?” she whisper to his ears

“nah, 1.5 meter, 3 Head, 4 arms and no tail, why?” Guts overhead have ‘?’ in it.

‘An Asura-Bear, is it an adult?! no its only 1.5 meter tall, a Cub? I have to report this!’ she quitely murmur.

“Can you give me more all the details about that 3 headed bear?” She asks

“uhm” He nodded

After they finished talking Mei Ru taught, ‘he also scammed by those merchant who buy his loot’ But she said to herself ‘ignorance is a bliss indeed, its also his own good not to know that he scammed thrice in a single day’ Mei Ru said to herself.

30 minutes later

Guts now finished wearing his newly purchased another grey color cloaks with hood, inside was chainmail and he purchased a weapon, 2 one-handed Sword, and 4 Daggers he also buy a Left hand Gauntlet and a round shield.

one time when he Undress his tattered cloak when a merchant look at him it fainted in fear on its spot, luckily he had a partner.

What Guts receive from them is a warm Congratulatory word and full of good lucks.

After that, they see different places inside Kerashval City, and that takes them 6 hours at most, then they straight to an Inn called “Day Inn, Day Out”

=====

“Jaina! there still available room right?” Mei Ru run Inside then Immediately asks the Straight Black Haired Girl named Jaina whose cleaning the table.

‘they are atmost the same age I think’, Guts thought when he enter after Mei Ru.

“Yes yes~ you will recommending another Adventurer?” Jaina said excitedly, what first caught her attention is a Horn of Guts covered thats being wrapped by bandage and muttered ‘oh my’ while her other hand is covering her mouth

“uhm, he is Guts our New Adventurer from now on!” Mei Ru tap Guts shoulder proudly, and because she is way taller than him, their just like brothers and sisters but Guts only nod to Jaina.

“hmm man of few words I see, welcome to our turf then! renting fee were 5 silver a day with Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner Meals, is that fine? also no room service for food okay? you only eat here and here alone! Okay?,” she clap her hand and happily said.

After that, Guts pay 1 Gold which is for his 20 days rent, then Jaina give him a key to his room with room number attached.

“thats for the second floor~” Jaina said.

“uhm, Jaina-san can I eat all of my portions later? I have a few things to do for now” Guts seriously said.

“yes yes~ anytime! also Mei Ru lets talk! if you’ll excuse me Guts-san!” Jaina dragged Mei Ru inside the kitchen after she said goodbye to Guts.
