Not Sure, Another World Reincarnation

Chapter 43: Somehow, It Seems the Situation Has Changed?

After defeating the ogre lord and talking to the guild master, I returned back to the road where I helped the adventurers earlier and resumed northward towards Harula. But I was walking unsteadily since I had used too much MP. Lets take a break for a bit

Along the way, I saw an area that appeared to be the emergency gathering place for the subjugation party in the distance. The two adventurers I helped earlier were likely amongst them. That aside, there were quite a lot of people gathered. Were there also many injuries? It seems the group noticed me and started waving towards me. I gave a slight bow and passed by. I basically just wanted to avoid any troublesome run-ins.

After a while, I managed to arrive at a place where I could see the gates leading into Harula. I could also see children gathering herbs in the surroundings. Yep, but I couldnt take it anymore. I sat down and took a break. To be frank, I didnt really have much stamina to begin with.

As I sat beside the road, drinking water and resting, carriages carrying people related to the ogre subjugation party and guild officials passed by numerous times. They were probably manpower recruited to transport the ogre corpses. Ahh, it must be rough for everyone. As I was watching, the guild master came riding along in a carriage.

What are you doing here? I was taking a break because I got tired. I dont really have that much stamina. Arent you pretty close to the town already? Yes. I see. Youre almost there, do your best. I will do my best.

He had a really complicated expression on his face, but I ignored it. I was still just an E rank and I was also still just a child. So wasnt this just natural?

As I sat there, a party of probably C ranks passed by in front of me and started pointing and laughing at me. I could hear some outrageous things being said.

Yep, thats right Im weak. But this weakling was also the one that saved you all.

But I didnt say anything since it would be troublesome. Besides, I was an adult on the inside. As such, I would overlook them and move on. Rather, did they really not notice anything when they saw Norn beside me? Were they really that shortsighted? Well, I guess there were just low-level C ranks. What disappointing C Ranks!

A bit later, the two adventurers I helped earlier also came along.

What are you doing here? Im resting because Im tired. I dont really have that much stamina. Is that so.

The two of them also had complicated expressions. I didnt really get what they all wanted from me.

Ah, right. We wanted to express our gratitude to you again. Thank you for saving us. Dont mention it.

Thats rightuh, youre planning on staying in Harula for a while again, right? If you need anything or if theres something you dont understand, tell us. As long as its within our power, we will help you. Yeah, if its within our capabilities, well definitely help. Were not saying you have to or anything, so just keeping it in mind is alright.

Alright, then at that time, I will rely on you two.

Yep, these two gave off a good vibe. Unlike a certain somebody.

W-Whats with that! Its completely different than with me!

Ugh, that certain somebody was there. Why was he always showing up like this?

Ill help you too! Please say anything! No, its fine. Why! I already received your gratitude with the vegetables you gave me, and me leaving the forest had nothing to do with you. I was planning to leave the forest, so the only difference was just a matter of sooner or later.

Even so..but. Neil! Why do you care so much about that child! Tess Come on! Were leaving now! Yeah..

Neil was dragged away by Tess. For my sake, please keep a strong grip on his leash, okay? After watching the scene unfold, Collie gave a slight wave towards me before chasing after the two. Hm? Wheres the common sense person, Beck? Was he perhaps doing something else? Well, whatever. I was starting to feel better so I decided to enter the town.

But when I entered the town, there was quite a ruckus going on. Which wasnt surprising, since the group of ogres actually had an ogre lord leading them, even more so since they were all still defeated. But most of the adventurers who took part in the subjugation party had complicated expressions on their faces. Well, it wasnt like they were the ones who defeated the ogre lord, and I was also the one who eliminated half the herd but despite that, there were still some people among them who stood about looking proud. Which was quite something in itself, I was honestly amazed.

But I was fine as long as I got my share and my peace was preserved.

And so, while the uproar continued, I headed towards an inn. It was the luxury inn that I stayed at before. I was tired of dealing with the cook, but there wasnt any other place where Norn and Bell could also stay.

Soon I arrived at the inn.

Um, I would like to sta-. Why cant I stay here! I came all the way from the royal capital to stay here! Im sorry, but were full right now. Damn it I came here because I wanted to try the rumored dish.

The man who had been yelling left the inn while muttering.

Eh, what?

Ah, Ren! Lily.

You finally came back! You told me that you were going to a village in the south, but you didnt come back even after a month, I was so worried that something might have happened Various things came up.and did something happen here? It looks like you have quite a lot of customers here.

Yes, thats right. Thatits the dish that Ren made before where the cook made a failed imitation of. It seems that rumors of it have spread to the fief capital and even the royal capital.a lot of people come to Harula just to eat it. .Just to eat that?

I couldnt really understand why. I would never want to eat that again. It would destroy my stomach.

Yes, thats sort of what I also think. But thanks to it, business is booming! That person is also very happy because of it. Thats good and all.but that makes things a bit troublesome for me. I cant stay here if its full, right? And there arent any other inns which would allow Norn and Bell to stay too.

Ah! Eh?

Lily suddenly raised her voice and stepped closer to me to whisper something.

About that, its actually fine. ?

Um, the owner of this inn actually kept the room you were using before open for you. Eh?

Since its thanks to you that business is great right now, when I told him that you were planning on coming back again, he had the room kept open in hopes that you would stay again once you returned. That is, Im grateful for that, but is it alright? The customer from before

Its fine! Since its the managements decision!

Was it really alright? But since I was being allowed to stay at the inn, I had no complaints. After completing the sign-in procedures, I was guided to my room by Lily. Since I was planning on staying for a while this time, I paid in full all at once.

Ah, Ren. I have a break afterwards for dinner.would you perhaps like to eat together? Sure, Im fine with that. Thank you very much!

Yep, that was a great smile. Her reaction was as cute as ever.

I entered my room and took a break. There was still some time until dinner, but I didnt have any MP left to practice with Creation Magic, so I decided to take a nap.

As expected, I was really tired today..
