[I see~. Okay, let me make it clear in advance that I don’t have any money! However, I do have…]

Natsuki Subaru took out his cell phone from his pocket. He was just about to perform the play he had rehearsed in his mind for a long time - the classic one, using the music, playback, and camera functions of his cell phone to fool the natives of the other world in exchange for the first pot of gold after reincarnation, but when he saw that the situation had eased, Goblin Slayer actually took the initiative to come over.

[No need, I have money here. ]

[Eh? Are you a local?!]

Natsuki Subaru yelled in shock. He thought to himself, oh no, the secret has been leaked! !

Come to think of it, when it comes to the standard of reincarnation works in another world, the protagonist is usually a high school student. Recently, there are also college student protagonists or office worker protagonists. But no matter which reincarnation novel, there should not be a single author who would describe a protagonist who is a tin can that wraps himself tightly.

Natsuki Subaru further speculated: Could it be that the place where they first arrived in the other world was very close to the Goblin Slayer, so they mistakenly took the Goblin Slayer as a companion who was also reincarnated from another world?

Natsuki Subaru looked at Paduo with sweat dripping down his back. In his opinion, Paduo, who was older than him, was the person he could trust the most among the group of reincarnated people.

However, Padu smiled, walked over lightly, patted his shoulder, and whispered in his ear that he was overthinking.

【No.】 Goblin Slayer is brief and to the point.

He took out a dirty dark cloth bag from his waist. The bag seemed to be filled with a lot of hard objects, because the bulging surface of the bag was supported by countless edges and corners.

[This thing is——] Natsuki Subaru had some idea of what this thing was, because the sense of déjà vu given by this scene was too strong. This kind of plot often appears not only in animation and comics, but also in movies and TV series.

[There must be gold coins in here, right?! Round and bright yellow! ]

【Not all of them.】

Goblin Slayer still spoke so little.

He placed the purse on Rom's counter and reached out to untie the straps on the belt. Natsuki Subaru and Padu came over with golden eyes, and even Felt and Rom came over.

However, the reason why Grandpa Rom came over might be very complicated.

Among all the people present, the one he was most wary of was this guy with a strange smell on his armor and who knew how many monsters he had killed!

Although the silver-haired half-elf was also feared, the elven warlock was no joke. But her silly expression showed that she was a kind-hearted person. Rom could deceive as many people as he wanted, and there was no need to worry about her in the current environment where everyone was communicating peacefully.

In addition, what he could not understand the most was the silver-haired cat-eared girl from the demi-human race.

Although she looked petite and fragile, she exuded an aura that made even the battle-hardened Rom shudder!

The little girl stood a little distance away from the crowd from beginning to end, which was why Grandpa Rom did not pick up the stick again and did not protect Firut and escape immediately.

Huang: A wise decision.

ACE: It would be terrible if that little kitty took action~

Mebius: How stupid! I really want to tie you to the operating table, cut open your skull, and see how small your head is.

Shen Chengzhen: Is there something wrong? I also think that Miss Rosemary's aura is amazing~

Mebius: Isn't that proof that one of your eyes is blind?

Alicia: Mobius, please speak softly. We are in front of a world that is wider than the end of the trees and the sea. We, the [Fire Chaser], must show our friendly side to the other worlds.

Padofilis: [Fire Moth] Friendly and kind... Haha~, even if Ellie said this, it's a little funny~

Eden: Isn’t this great~? Perhaps this is a new starting point for [Fire Moth].

Padofilis: Sister Eden is right!

Hattori Heiji: What evidence did they use against you?

Padofelius: Hey, Blackhead, stop talking nonsense! Be careful or Brother Jie will come looking for you at night!

Hattori Heiji: Who is Jie? Do you think I'm afraid...

Qianjie: Huh——? !

Hattori Heiji: ┌(.Д.)┐━━━ゥ

124. Safe End

For a moment, most of the people in the warehouse gathered around Rom's counter.

The purse that Goblin Slayer took out was indeed not filled with gold coins just as he said. There were also many silver coins, some of which were even of different sizes.

Grandpa Rom frowned after taking a look at the coins. He raised his big arms, picked up the coins with two fingers, and looked at them in front of his eyes with the same movement as picking up sesame-sized green beans.

[No, this is not right. What country’s currency is this? I have never seen it before.]

[No way~~] Natsuki Subaru, who accepted Padu's statement, had expected this kind of development in his heart. If the currency there could be used directly in another world, then he wouldn't have to sell his mobile phone.

Although it was little, he still had some banknotes and coins in his pocket, probably enough to survive in this world for a day or two - provided that only he was counted.

How much are these worth?

[Mr. Goblin Slayer, I mentioned these coins——]

【50% off. 】

【30% off. 】

[40% off, it's settled!] Rom slammed his thick palm on the table. Mr. Goblin Slayer responded quickly.

【make a deal. 】

【readily! 】

[Huh? What's going on? Why?] Natsuki Subaru looked left and right and found that Goblin Slayer and Rom-ye both looked serious and they were not teaming up to play him, which made him have a question mark over his head.

[Because the main ingredients of gold and silver coins remain the same, the only difference is the specific gravity.] Conan came over at some point, picked up a gold coin and looked at it, and it looked no different from Rom just now.

[This gold coin is quite substantial, has a nice shape, and is well made. So even if this coin is not circulated in this country, it would still be worth a lot if you buy it for the price of gold or crafts... My uncle once said so~]

[I see... Your uncle is in the gold business? ]

Subaru Natsuki touched his chin. He quickly realized that the whole thing had come to an end, and immediately shouted: [Okay! The deal is done! Felt, badge! ]

【Cut~】

Felt walked over with some reluctance on her face. She turned her face away and held the badge in her other hand and handed it to Emilia.

Emilia happily took the badge, and then began to lecture her under Firut's impatient expression.

Seeing this scene, Natsuki Subaru in the light curtain had not yet breathed a sigh of relief, but Reinhard outside the light curtain took a deep breath.

Reinhard van Astrea: What is this? ! !

Natsuki Subaru: There's no need to be so shocked. My plan was successfully implemented~, hehe!

Reinhard van Astraea: ...I'm sorry, although it's not about this matter, I am grateful for your help, Subaru-kun.

Reinhard van Astrea: I have other things to do. I will leave now.

five minutes later……

Felt: Aaaaaaaaaaa! Help! The red-haired perverted knight is chasing me!

The incident of recovering the lost items ended perfectly, and the group walked out of Mr. Rom's stolen goods warehouse. On the way, Emilia introduced her true identity to everyone.

She is not an ordinary citizen of this royal capital, but one of the candidates for the throne of the dragon-friendly kingdom of Lugnica, and may become the queen of this country in the future.

Lugnica Citizen A: Tsk! How can we let a silver-haired half-elf become king?

Lugnica Citizen B: But, she doesn't seem to be a bad person? There's no need to reject her so much, right?

Lugnica Citizen C: Don't forget her taboo appearance. Maybe she is a follower of the Witch Cult! Anyway, I will definitely not let such a guy become our king! No, a silver-haired half-demon should not be qualified to be a candidate for the throne!

Lugnica citizen D: You! The candidate for the throne was chosen by the dragon himself. Do you want to go against the dragon's will?

Lugnica citizen C: I, that’s not what I meant, please stop slandering me!

Emilia explained to everyone why she was a candidate for the throne.

[Originally, someone like me, who was born in a foreign race and had no experience in politics, would not be chosen to be the king of a country. But this dragon-friendly kingdom is different.]

[Everyone obeys the will of the dragon Polkanika, and the process of selecting candidates for the throne does not involve the people of this country, but is carried out by the Dragon Calendar Stone that represents the will of the dragon. This,]

Emilia showed the badge in her hand. [This badge is proof that she was chosen by the dragon as a candidate for the throne of this country.]

【That’s great~~】

Hearing this explanation, Natsuki Subaru thought of the legends he had seen in various works on Earth.

He is a candidate for the throne and also a dragon. It sounds like a magnificent epic, making Natsuki Subaru feel as if he has witnessed the beginning of a legendary history.

At the same time, Conan Edogawa noticed something strange.

Does being chosen by the dragon represented by the emblem mean that one is a candidate for the throne...

If selected, how will it be proved specifically?

For example, glowing, like this——

Emilia led the way and said she would arrange accommodation for everyone tonight.

Everyone followed her and felt that the buildings on both sides of the road were becoming taller and more exquisite, and the clothes worn by the pedestrians were becoming more and more luxurious.

During their visit, they met a red-haired knight. According to Emilia, he seemed to be a great man called "Sword Saint".

Natsuki Subaru thought about it, and out of revenge and some worry, he reported Mr. Rom's warehouse of stolen goods to Mr. Sword Saint. Mr. Sword Saint gladly went to the slums to check the situation.

Finally, before dark, everyone arrived at a magnificent mansion.

[This is——!!]

Natsuki Subaru had never seen such a magnificent house.

The exquisite and magnificent mansion put pressure on him psychologically.

If you think about it carefully, a candidate for the throne of a country should indeed have such a style, but it is not a reason for Natsuki Subaru to remain calm in the face of reality.

But he has one advantage, which is that his emotions change very quickly.

The previous second he was still feeling sad about the gap in status between him and Emilia. The next second, when he saw a cute maid with short pink hair, wearing a maid outfit with a strong two-dimensional style, saluting and greeting in front of the mansion door, his attention was immediately drawn to the maid.

Ram: Tsk!

Rem: You filthy bug! How dare you look at Rem's elder sister like that!

[Welcome back, Lady Emilia.] The maid outfit with a bold opening at the chest makes the pink short-haired maid bend down to salute, revealing a beautiful scene. [May I ask who these people are?]

[They are all people who helped me. Because this is their first day in the capital, they didn't even have time to find a place to stay in order to help me, so I want them to stay here for one night and then follow us back to Roswaal tomorrow, is that okay?]

【——If this is your will. 】

125. Conan observes secretly

Natsuki Subaru: Why do I feel like this pink-haired sister seems very decisive?

Crusch Karsten: The maid at Lord Roswaal's place has a lot of personality~

Priscilla Barrière: As a servant, I actually put on such an attitude in front of my master. It really makes me laugh. A half-demon and a maid who doesn't know the rules, this is really a perfect match.

As Ram showed a little resistance in the light curtain, the sound outside the light curtain changed a little.

However, the transferees did not think much about Ram's attitude. Most of them came from a society that was superficially equal, and in their eyes, being a maid was just a profession rather than a status.

Even so, the impression that the maid with short pink hair was difficult to get along with was immediately instilled into their minds.

After staying in the extravagantly gorgeous mansion for one night, the group of transferees boarded the dragon carriage that Ram had found and headed to the mansion where the Margrave of Roswaal, Emilia's supporter as a candidate for the throne, lived.

According to Emilia, they came to the capital this time to deal with the affairs of the throne candidates meeting. Usually they live in the mansion in the border country of Roswaal.

In addition, they did not prepare too many valuables in the annex of the royal capital. If Emilia wanted to thank them, she had to go back to the mansion of the border earl of Roswaal first.

[Isn't the Border Earl a very great noble? ]

[Lord Roswaal is the kingdom's foremost magician, known as "one man is enough to rival an army." ]

[Ah~~, so amazing?! ]

Although it was somewhat different from what Natsuki Subaru wanted to ask, the comparison of combat power with that of an army still made him marvel.

[It's really a fantasy world~~]

Putting this aside, the annex in the royal capital is already so magnificent that Natsuki Subaru begins to look forward to what the main residence of the border earl will look like.

I can only say that it is worthy of a medieval-like background dominated by swords and magic, right?

Leaving the royal capital and heading towards Mezas Territory, the border Count's territory of Roswaal, the scenery that came into view was initially strange to people like Natsuki Subaru and Padu who grew up in the city, but after seeing it more, they noticed the people who served as the background of the magnificent scenery, and even the most beautiful scenery lost its flavor in their eyes.

According to Paddo, it is hard to tell who is worse off than the residents of Dusk Street.
