Going to Another World on Your Own! ～a Story That Begins With a Not-so-sweet Upbringing - CH 248

A certain inn in the city of Daredar.

The group gathered in the room where Tauro and Ankh were staying and were having a discussion.

Tauro told Aeris and the others about an idea.

“I think I should go to the village of the Dragon People, Ragune’s hometown, until things cool down at the Assassination Guild. People from the outside are rare there, and I’m sure they’ll recognize us when we come in. Besides, I heard that there’s an Adventurers’ Guild branch there.”

“The village of the Dragon People?!”

Aeris and Ankh were surprised at the idea that was so far above their expectations.

“I thought maybe we were going to go to the city of Saisii, but it’s the village of the Dragon People!”

I thought Aeris that had an outrageous imagination.

“That’s a terrific idea, too, but ……! The village of the Dragon People is, above all, a far, steep, and risky place to go normally, isn’t it, Ragune?”

“Ah, yes, that’s right. From here, it would take about a month to get to a remote human settlement village in the north, then traverse the great forest area, enter the Antas Mountains, and finally reach the village after finding the dragon forest from there. As I told you before, it would take me more than a month to find us, even though I am confident in my leg strength. Besides, the entire village is covered with wards and sight-obstructing magic, so it would be extremely difficult to find it even if you were looking for it.”

Although she was suddenly asked to speak, Ragune told the truth about what was probably the village’s secret.

“──That’s right, so the assassins won’t come to the Dragon People’s village, so I thought I should take care of them there. To do so, I would have to ask Ragune to intervene and get permission from the chief of the dragon tribe. And even though it’s a long distance, it’s the easiest way to stay in touch with everyone.”

“You are very welcome to come to the village, so I think the chief’s permission will be granted soon. Besides, the chief also said that he has a request to ask you.”

Ragune extended the welcome.

“Yes, I think I’ll go and take that request as well.”

Tauro had not forgotten that Ryuga, the chief of the Dragon People, had said he had a favor to ask.

He had been so busy recently that he had not visited the Dragon People village since that day, but he had felt the need to visit, so he thought the timing was perfect.

“Then we’ll go too. Since we’re a team, we’ll go anywhere there’s an adventurer’s guild.”

Aeris added naturally.

“I thought you would say that, but if it’s what the chief wants, it’s going to be a big deal, so maybe it would be better if you and the others acted separately?”

Tauro thought it would be disingenuous to take Aeris and the others into what he considered to be danger, so he took a negative stance.

“Aeris, the leader is right. He’s trying to hide from the assassination guild so that we don’t get caught up in their raid in the first place, but If we go along with him to hide ourselves from them, we’ll be in even more danger there. Besides, it wouldn’t make sense to make it an established fact that the leader had left the team and disappeared unless we were still in the village of Dansas. If the whole team disappears, the assassination guild will be looking for the four of us with blood on their hands. If we don’t make them think we’re no longer in touch with the leader, he’s going to have to worry about us. You know what I mean right?”

“…… how long is this going to take?”

Aeris asked Tauro, looking disapprovingly.

“I don’t know. It depends on what the chief is asking for, but about six months to a year? It depends on the progress of the dungeon capture. I’ll probably be in charge of taking them back and forth, so they’ll be able to avoid as much danger as possible. Besides, Ragune has been returning to the village of the Dragon People frequently, so I think she will be able to contact me soon.”

“That’s right, Aeris. For me, my hometown is a place I can always go right back to. If something happens, I can reach you right away, so it’s a lot closer than halfway across the country, right?”

Ragune also advised Aeris with concern.

“Even though we were able to get a team of four together and were just about to start in earnest. …… Okay, I’ll see what I can do.”

Aeris, perhaps having something on her mind, decided to go along with Tauro’s idea.

In this way, the leader of the Black Golden Wings, which was supposed to start in earnest as a D-Team, temporarily left the team.
