Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer?

Episode 410 I am here (5)

I asked the store owner for permission and left Frederick hanging by the door. Originally, I would have just bought a banquet and gone to the bell tower, but I couldn’t do that with a woman in pajamas and bare feet.

“I bought a coat and shoes.”

“Ah…”

“Thank you, sir.”

“It must be cold, so I thought I’d at least wear my outerwear…”

“It’s okay because I don’t get cold.”

It’s impossible to keep him wearing a cape, and it’s even more of a problem when he goes home later.

I decided to walk around nearby and get some clothes and shoes. The judgment that the two Heretic Questioners who were in charge of this type of work would be better suited to act as counselors to the woman than me also influenced my actions.

“The woman wants to buy some shoes.”

“What is your race?”

“Cuerties.”

“Is there anything I need to pay special attention to?”

“There was none.”

Since the feet were soft, like middle-class feet, there was no need to drill any special holes.

While thinking that, I remembered the size of the woman’s feet that I had roughly observed. Even if there were no products with a 5mm difference like in Hyundai, there was a difference of 5cm and 10cm, so it was inevitable.

“What size is better?”

“This should be enough.”

I chose a suitable pair of leather shoes by comparing them to the size of my palm. Since there is wool inside, it will not put too much strain on injured feet.

“Please give me four silver coins.”

Silver coins cost 40,000 pieces. It’s expensive… I grumbled to myself, but obediently paid the price. I knew from experience over the past year that it was a good quality product, so it wasn’t a waste of money to pay for it.

“I’d like to see your coat too.”

“Then how about this? “All fashionable people covet it.”

“Go for something warm and long rather than stylish.”

“Then this?”

“It’s not bad… Are there any other colors? “In a light… bright tone.”

“Bright series? Then… this?”

“It’s okay.”

“This is fourteen silver coins.”

This time too, I paid without saying anything. The store owner neatly folded the clothes and handed them over, with a typical Northern expression.

“ruler.”

“…?”

“From the looks of it, I think I’m giving it to my lover as a gift. I think she’ll like it if I give her a bracelet too.”

“…Thank you for that.”

There seems to be a misunderstanding, but it would be meaningless to explain it here and there. I bowed my head as I put the bracelet the merchant gave me as a bonus into my pocket.

“Don’t be mistaken for a devil and get along well!”

So, that’s a misunderstanding. Instead of explaining, I gave him an awkward handshake and returned to the store. Fortunately, Frederick, who was clever, knew that it was not the time for him to get angry and stayed calm.

“Good job. “I’ll give you some corn when I get back.”

Phew.

okay. Even during this time, I understand your stubbornness in wanting beets. I lightly placed my lips on Frederick’s forehead and then went inside. While I was there, the conversation seemed to have ended somewhat, so the inside of the store was very quiet.

“So what’s the situation?”

“It is said that the lover I was dating suddenly changed his mind and broke up with me. “They say the reason I climbed the bell tower was because I saw a vision of my lover.”

“is it.”

It seems like you had an amazing love since you even welcomed me. Even though it is a breakup ending.

“It must have been a lot of heartache.”

I knelt in front of the woman. It was wrapped in bandages, as if the two people had treated it.

“Do you mind if I put on your shoes?”

“That yes yes.”

“Excuse me.”

It was a bit difficult to put on because it was in the shape of a boot, but it still fit because it was large enough. My keen eye has gone somewhere.

I handed him a new coat, feeling somewhat satisfied that I didn’t have to go back again. The eyes of the woman and the other two people widened.

“… Sir, are you okay?”

“what?”

“It looks expensive…”

“It wasn’t that expensive.”

“Is the material this good?”

“It only cost 140,000 gal.”

“Is it worth 140,000!?”

“…is it expensive?”

“Of course everything is expensive…?”

“I see…”

When I compared it to modern clothes, it was always in this price range… But it’s not like I ever ran out of money. So I didn’t know. This price range was definitely expensive.

“I’m fine, so you should refund this….”

“It’s rude to the merchant to give a refund simply because you changed your mind. And money is meaningless to me. “I think it would make me happier if you could forget your bad memories by wearing this.”

I retrieved the fur cape and draped a new one over her shoulders. The bright color scheme on his reddish-brown hair, which was almost auburn, suited him well.

“I cannot possibly fathom the depth of love you shared with your lover, but I hope that you will not become too absorbed in it. “You are still young and beautiful to sacrifice your life for love.”

I thought it would be rude to give it to him, so I took my hand away. The other person, whose face was particularly flushed because he had entered the relatively warm building from the cold, hastily put on his coat.

“…Lord Job.”

“…Why do you do that?”

“Kyung… I think it would be good for you to have a little more economic sense. Of course, I know that you are a person who makes a lot of money, but…”

“Oh, keep that in mind.”

Even though it may not be a big deal to me, it could be a burden to the recipient, so I definitely need to be careful about this.

“Danny that’s not the problem.”

“…Maxi?”

“When you go out, you must take Daniel with you. If Danny can’t do it because he has work to do, please call me. Definitely.”

“…Oh, that’s right.”

“Are you afraid of being misunderstood like before? Still, you may have spent a bit too much money, but isn’t that something a kind person would do?”

“No, kindness is not the problem… Of course kindness is a bit of a problem…”

Maximoyak looked at his face for a moment and then waved his hand.

“It’s not something to say here, so we’ll take turns later. “I think the priority now is to take this person home.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

“Even that kindness…”

“It’s okay. “It is something we must do.”

“If you don’t want your house’s location known, I’ll take you at least a short distance away.”

“It’s not that I don’t like it…”

The woman was at a loss and eventually accepted our offer. It was a moment when the purpose of the restaurant tour changed briefly.

* * *

“Wow, I guess I’ll buy something now.”

“Have you finally woken up?”

“How many hours did you sleep?”

“You slept for a little over three hours.”

In response to Deathbringer’s answer, Meister picked up the glasses he had placed on the nightstand.

“What, where have you two gone?”

“Interrogator Nari went to have fun, and Adventurer Nari… probably went to have fun together.”

Daniel said he was going to have fun before he left and that he would also suggest it to adventurers, so I guess so.

“Why didn’t you go?”

“…Because it’s hard.”

It wasn’t a joke, it was something I meant sincerely. Deathbringer was really having a hard time so he chose not to go out.

“Anyway, Interrogator Nari is not an ordinary person after all. “How can you handle that forced march and go out to play?”

If he had had a little more stamina, he could have spent the day with the adventurer. Although Deathbringer regretted it, he did not get up from his bed. I really mean it. His stamina was now at its lowest. Mental fatigue was 100.

“Would you be able to work as a Heretic Questioner if you didn’t have that kind of venom?”

“That’s true too.”

“Anyway, they are crazy people.”

Although I don’t want to admit it, there is something about my physical strength that I accept. Deathbringer pursed his lips.

Slurp.

Meister suddenly got up from the bed.

“…? what. “Where are you going?”

“There’s this crazy space right in front of me, and I need to explore it.”

“Now that I see it, there was someone else who was the craziest.”

“What did you say?”

“They said I was crazy.”

People who go out to have fun fall into the category of ordinary people, but what kind of people are they who try to do research as soon as their physical strength is restored?

Deathbringer looked at Meister with tired eyes. Then the Meister suddenly got angry.

“Isn’t this amazing to you? The time scale has changed! Time multiplier!”

“It’s interesting, but I don’t want to study it like that.”

“Are you even a human being like that?!”

“I wonder if it’s normal for people to tell us things like this! “You must be strange!!”

The two screamed at each other. Because each other’s thoughts were completely different, the confrontation was fierce. Suddenly. As the two people’s voices were getting louder, the door opened.

“I…”

“Isn’t it natural for a human being to fill his head with culture and knowledge?! The moment you give up trying to know, you stop being a person! “It’s an animal!”

“Are you saying that you know that most humans have become animals?! And when do I stop putting culture and knowledge into my head?! “You’re saying I’m not interested in this because it’s not my major!”

“Uh…”

“Not being interested just because it’s not your major is proof of your foolishness in not wanting to expand your horizons of knowledge!”

“No, they even talk about the foolishness of not learning because you can’t afford it!”

“Uuuhhh….”

“Can’t afford it?! Hey, isn’t this moment free?!”

“This is not leisure, this is rest! “Rest and relaxation are different things. Ohh… Oh?”

And after a long confrontation, Deathbringer confirmed the scarlet presence standing in front of the open door.

“Um… can I speak now?”

Although he was expressionless, he seemed somewhat fierce. Jewelry made of shells and coral sparkled in the light of the lamp.

“…who are you?”

“You…”

“Oh, I forgot to introduce myself.”

When the two people’s mouths fell silent at the sudden appearance of that being, the scarlet wizard made a quiet eye contact.

“I am Timanyuk, a wizard who is a former disciple of the owner of the Vemurchen Tower and one of Suzaku’s tailors, and who is entrusted to the Lineiro Tower.”

I visited briefly because I had something to give to an adventurer staying here. The eyes of the two people expressed surprise in their own ways at the statement that came out of the scarlet wizard’s mouth.

* * *

“It wasn’t what you intended, but you still harbor demonic energy, right? Of course, we know that just because he possesses demonic energy, it does not mean that he is collaborating with the devil or is the devil himself… but most people don’t know that.”

“yes.”

“So… if something as rare as before happens, it could be a headache.”

“Right.”

“Hmm. still. In the end, you will go to the temple and your innocence will be proven, so that’s okay, right? Of course, the Lord will have to endure the inconvenience, but…”

“No, because the devil is doing so many tricks, there are people who carry around things like simple magic measuring devices.”

“A simple magic meter?”

“Because it was developed recently, it hasn’t spread much. I heard it was created unexpectedly while conducting research on filtration or something…”

…I can guess what the research was about. I scratched my cheek sheepishly and lowered my head.

“I get it. “Be careful what you say next time.”

“Yes… no, you don’t necessarily have to do that. “It’s not your fault.”

“But wouldn’t it be good to reduce the number of misunderstandings?”

I don’t really consciously spit out my words, so I doubt that talking less will reduce it, but it would still be good to be careful.

“…Really, the devil is the problem. “If it weren’t for the devil, it wouldn’t have become such a harsh city.”

“What can I do?”

If the Great Devil of Lust or something were to appear right before my eyes, I would tell him that I am right, but there is no way he would do that. In the end, we have no choice but to hold on until we are caught.

“for a moment.”

But there are thieves even in this city.

“…?”

“Ahh!”

I snatched the pickpocket’s wrist and stopped the boy from running further. The boy, who had already emptied Daniel’s pockets, was holding a few coins and someone else’s money bag in his hands.

“You have bad hand habits.”

“Let go of this…!”

“I won’t criticize you carelessly unless I know the circumstances. “But I would like to advise you that there must be a better way to live your life.”

“What are you saying…!”

“Furthermore, if you are going to steal someone’s pocket in the future, check the target properly before stealing.”

I pointed to the two people next to me.

“You wouldn’t want your wrists cut off by the Heretic Questioner, right?”

“If you know that, you can catch it or not!”

“Hey kid. “Don’t you know that I’m talking this long just to make you look at me?”

“Is that what the Lord says about stealing after identifying the target?”

“I can’t improve this child’s treatment right away. “Before blaming a child for a child’s crime, priority should be given to blaming the environment in which the child had to commit such a crime.”

“Oh… that’s a very good thing to say. “I will engrave this on Maximoyac’s heart.”

“Now give me my money back.”

“…yes.”

“You should also apologize for being wrong.”

“I was wrong.”

“Okay, good job.”

After patting the boy on the shoulder, I placed five silver coins in the palm of the hand that I handed over the copper coin to.

“This…!”

“I don’t want immediate change. Even if you want to change, know that the amount is too small to even try. However, I hope that these five coins can make your day leisurely, and that leisurely day can change your future even a little bit.”

“….”

I know it’s irresponsible, but this is all I can do. I also took someone else’s money bag from the child. Judging by its weight, it seems to be full of fairy tales, so it wouldn’t be a bad exchange for a child.

“I will return this to its original owner. “You’ll be okay, right?”

“…yes.”

“okay. “Go now.”

“….”

The child hesitated and Maxie, who was scratching his head next to me, shouted.

“No. Even if I don’t punish you, I’ll have to take you to the temple and say some harsh words to you.”

“Maxi?”

“Just for the sake of it… do you want to send me some food too?”

It’s almost dinner time. Maxie said and narrowed one eye. Daniel seemed like a friend.

“That’s a good idea.”

“yes?”

“Being taken to a temple would be enough of an excuse for the group the child belongs to.”

“Ah, is there such a thing as kingcho here too?”

“sure.”

Something like this almost caused a big problem.

“Is there such a thing as a quota…?”

I turned around, holding the child’s wrist so that he couldn’t run away – exactly so. Perhaps because he heard our conversation or because of the silver coin in his hand, the child cooperated obediently.

“What happened?”

However, the problem was that when I turned back to the path I was planning to take, I saw new people.

“I came to get my wallet…”

“Ah, is this the owner?”

I’m so surprised. I didn’t know I’d meet someone who resembles the archer character here again. There is still someone next to me who resembles a fighter.

“The Inquisitor has decided to punish pickpockets. So, if you’re angry—”

Still, it’s not the worst encounter. I hid the pickpocket behind me in case something unexpected happened—such as if the pickpocket boy got angry on the other side—and instead, I stepped forward and handed him my wallet.

Fortunately, their eyes were not directed at the pickpocket. Instead, they asked me…

“How do you develop a good relationship with me?”

me?

“…?”

The hand that was grabbed with the wallet was trapped between the other person’s paws.

* * *

And some alley they can’t see.

[Hey, we made this! The plan to catch the pickpocket and attack him was ruined from the beginning.]

[…Well, there’s nothing we can do. There are so many variables in a plan that relies on chance.]

[No, more than that, a vessel of anger was involved again. Is this really okay?]

[Should I make a vessel of anger for something like this?]

[If you’re going to do it, please leave me out. I’m scared of him.]

[I’m just kidding. I’m scared too, so I’ll give up now and step out. There’s also talk that the tower owners are moving.]

The two beings who had been staying there like shadows disappeared.
