Chapter 13 [It’s true that capturing a dungeon is a dream of getting rich quickly.]
“The guild’s registration is over with this. This is my last question, but do you have any plans on which inn to stay at?”
The guild’s male staff asked me and I shook my head.
“There weren’t any plans to stay at an inn. For the time being, I’ll think after I liquidate my things on hand.”
“Well then, let’s liquidate right here immediately. Could you take out your goods?”
Having said so, I took out the treasures that I found in the dungeon I captured with Tet one by one.
To be honest, I think it’s strange for a pair of girls to take out so much jewelry from their magic bag, but the young guild staff member put on a white glove and began examining them without asking.
“This is…… I see.”
I didn’t know what’s what, but he was writing down the prices of the treasures on the piece of paper he prepared in advance.
Then, after he finished appraising everything, he spat out a long sigh.
“It’d be bad if we didn’t reserve some rewards for the upcoming orc king subjugation, but there should be a budget to purchase everything.”
He was implicitly saying that if they sold jewelry and treasures at an appropriate place, the gains would increase even more.
“Excuse me. Please have a look at the assessment list.”
“Ahh, alright.”
I reviewed the assessment sum that was handed over.
It seems like the jewelry is comprehensively judged by things like the price of the metal, practical design, the size of the gem inserted, etc.
Things made out of silver are roughly 5 silver coins, and the ones made out of gold are roughly 20~30 silver coins when there’s a gem the prices change a little.
“15 large gold coins, huh……”
I murmured as I thought.
Through my general experience, it feels like a copper coin is 100 yen, a large copper coin is 1,000 yen, a silver coin is 10,000 yen, a small gold coin is 100,000 yen, and a large gold coin is 1,000,000 yen.
If that’s the case, then 15 large gold coins are roughly 15,000,000 yen.
I haven’t exactly grasped the prices of commodities in this other world, but I can live normally for the time being with just a portion of the dungeon’s treasures, and live peacefully for the rest of my life if I sell everything.
Additionally—-
“Then, about this magic bag, this appraisal monocle, and this staff that can shoot fireballs…… how much would it be if I sell them?”
“!? You’re willing to sell that magic tool!?”
“Not selling. Just using it as a reference.”
“Of course you are. Well, even if you do sell it, we don’t have the budget for that. Bohoho……”
The man dropped his shoulders in disappointment but taught me the rough estimate.
As for the magic bag, depending on the capacity or the passing of time inside, but even the simplest one is 5 large gold coins and the price skyrockets from there. The appraisal monocle depends on the level it can examine, but it’s from 5 small gold coins to 50; as for the disposable fireball staff, it’s at least 3 silver coins at the market price.”
Well, if you think of the magic bag carrying the transportation load of a large truck, it’s not weird for a price of several million to hundreds of millions.
If you take into consideration of the necessity of a magic bag for a country’s military movements or an adventurer’s dungeon capture, you’d have to agree to its worth.
Also, although the appearance of the appraisal monocle looks like an ordinary monocle, it’s more expensive than all the jewelry put together.
In addition, the [Fireball Staff] that I created using [Creation Magic] with 40 mana was three silver coins, so if I sold it, it seems like I don’t have to worry about eating.
It seems to be a high price worthy of a magic tool.
“Then, I’ll sell all the jewelry at the assessed price.”
“Thank you. The total amount of your assessed sum, with the registration fee deducted, is 14 large gold coins and 87 silvers.”
Converted to Japanese Yen, it’s around 14,000,000 yen.
That dungeon had five floors and was on the smaller side, but if I sold all the magic bags and magic tools that we found in the dungeon, we’d be able to enjoy ourselves and live freely for a while.
And if I sold the dungeon core that Tet absorbed…… thinking like this, I believe there would be many adventurers obsessed with the dungeon dream.
“It’s dangerous if you walk around carrying large gold coins, so how about putting it into your guild card? If you do that, you can take it out at any guild.”
“Let’s see. Then please put half of the 14 large gold coins, 7 pieces each, in Tet’s and my card. The remaining 87 silver coins will be my living expenses for now.”
As I said that, Tet pulled at my sleeves while sitting.
“Majo-sama, Tet is fine. I want Majo-sama to carry it all.”
“Tet worked hard as well, so this is Tet’s share. When there’s something you want, you can buy it with the money you’ve saved up in your guild card.”
“Ugh…… But……”
“Or, did you not want the money that you could use to buy sweets by yourself after you worked?”
“S-Sweets……”
As Tet slurped back her droll with gleaming eyes, I had a wry smile. I managed our living expenses, but I forcibly pushed through the notion of equally splitting the reward.
Although it was a magician’s common sense that it was recognized that golems belonged to the creator, I felt like Tet had individuality, rather than being a tool or a manservant; I couldn’t treat her how society would.
“This took longer than I thought. I’ll have my work finished with this, so I’ll guide you to the inn I recommend. The inn charges one silver coin per night and offers delicious food and it’s safe.”
“Thank you.”
“I’m looking forward to meals not made by Majo-sama.”
We received 87 silver coins after processing the cards, and the young staff member guided us towards the inn.
“This is the recommended inn in this town—-The [Autumn Wheat Pavilion].”
When we entered the inn as the young man guided us, it was already dinnertime in the dining hall, and there was a girl busily carrying food around.
“I’m back, I brought an important guest.”
“Ah, Onii-chan, welcome back! Hey, mommm! There’s a customer!”
The young man was called Onii-chan; this seems to be like a family managed inn.
Then, I saw the proprietress of the inn who had a good physique that appeared, and I held the edge of my hood and hid my eyes.
“Oh my, welcome in. It’s rare for you to bring in customers!”
“The guild master and Lyle and them asked me to do so. Since it’s just girls becoming adventurers, they wanted for them to be introduced at a safer place.”
The young guild staff member, or rather, the inn’s son explained.
“I see. The two of you, how are you rooming?”
“A double room please. For the time being, two people for a week with meals.”
“Then, write your name in the register. It’ll be 14 silver coins for both of you. If you leave the inn earlier, we’ll return the difference then.”
I nodded my head, and handed 14 silver coins over to the proprietress.
“Do you want to have your meals immediately?”
“We’d like to eat in our room, so could you bring it up?”
“No problem. Here. This is the room key.”
The key I received was for the room on the second floor; after listening to the lodging rules such as bedding replacement, cleaning, etc., we went to our room.
“…… You have to buy the lantern fuel, I see. That’s wasteful, isn’t it—-<>.”
I lit the lamp with my origin magic, and washed and purified our clothes, and made ourselves tidy.
Then, when I sat down on the bed, a long sigh escaped.
“It’s so soft and fluffy~. Will Tet be resting here today?”
“Yeah, that’s right. Come to think of it, I asked you to stand guard at night the entire time since now. Thank you. Sorry for burdening you.”
“Ehehe, Tet wasn’t burdened at all. However, I’m happy to be of use to Majo-sama~.”
Having said that, Tet began to roll around the bed, then suddenly stopped moving.
“Majo-sama. Do I stay on watch tonight as well?”
“No. It seems like this inn is safe, so you don’t have to stand guard tonight.”
“I’ve been thinking about this for a while. Tet wants to sleep together with Majo-sama!”
“Well then, let’s sleep in the same bed tonight.”
I broke out into a smile at the carefree Tet, and the stress of the long journey to finally arrive at human habitation slowly broke down little by little.
The delivered meal to this room consisted of hard bread, delicious stew, and a salad.
Speaking of bread, the bread I created with creation magic was definitely softer, but why is the bread I created more delicious and warm than the bread made by hand I wonder.”
I almost cried at the feeling of the food tasting more delicious than usual.
Then, the tired me clung to Tet’s body and felt the first strong feeling of peace since my reincarnation.
Aah, that’s right.
I might have used the mental age of my previous life as a basis, but my body was still a 12-year-old child’s.
No matter how much I tried to believe that it was all right, my heart was being worn out.
That’s why, I’ll rest for today.
