Arc 12 Epilogue
“Mr. Kevin, what are your plans after this? Are you going to the Gengas Trading Company?”
“Today, we will spend the night at an inn near this gate. There are a lot of stores and inns for merchants, adventurers and travellers in the area, and there are also good medical practitioners here. We have a lot of preparations to make before we go to the Gengas Chamber of Commerce.”
After continuing their journey from the city of Premiere, Yuuji and his friends finally arrived at the royal capital. Yuji immediately checks with Kevin about today’s schedule.
It seems that today they will be staying near the square in front of the gates as soon as they enter the royal capital.
This was out of concern for Doni, a werewolf, and Alice’s brother Charles, who were still lying on the back of the wagon after waking up.
As if to agree with Kevin’s words, Kotaro barked vigorously. She seems to want to say, “Yes, don’t overdo it.” Even though she’s a dog, she was a kind woman.
“Well, both the inn and the pharmacist are a bit expensive, but there’s no point in being stingy here. We’ve got the reward money now.”
“Oh, I see. Then, please deduct the cost of Doni-san and Charles-kun’s medicine from mine.”
“Don’t worry about it, Yuuji! You can deduct the cost of the medicine from the bounty before you split it, and then split it between us! It’s thanks to you that we found the location of the hideout.”
Enzo, a former third-level adventurer and scout who was walking beside the carriage, called out to Yuuji.
Enzo was in a good mood. I’m not sure what to make of it. “I have to buy a souvenir for Yvonne,” he hummed. He was such a sucker that it was a wonder he had won her over.
The children, Alice, Charles, and Lise, sat with their mouths hanging open while the adults chatted away.
A six-meter high stone wall, the number of people and buildings in the royal capital. It was the first time they had been in a big city since they grew up in the countryside.
Yuuji was also surprised when he first went to the city of Premier, but he was originally a civilized man who grew up in modern Japan. Once you get used to seeing a race that doesn’t exist on Earth, you won’t be surprised by the number of people and buildings. I was still rolling the camera, though.
No, it wasn’t just the children who were surprised.
There was a woman who leaned forward from the back of the carriage to the driver’s seat and shouted, “Whoa!” That was Urschel, a seamstress.
Urschel was accompanying her employer, Kevin, on the trip under the guise of making final adjustments to the dress he was going to give to the woman he was going to marry. Aside from adjusting dresses as a tailor, one of her objectives was to learn about the latest trends in the capital.
When she sees a passerby’s dress, she shouts in a strange way and writes something on a poor piece of paper at hand. She had been quiet during the trip, but here she was in a state of excitement. She is an eccentric woman.
“Yuuji, this is our lodging for today. First, I’ll arrange for a pharmacist to take a look at the two of you. Depending on that, let’s heal from our journey and get going tomorrow.”
As he spoke, Kevin stopped the carriage.
What Yuuji and the others saw was a large building made of stone and five stories high.
“What? Kevin, that’s a pretty impressive building…”
“Yes, it’s the best inn in the area. It’s a little pricey, but it’s safe, and even if you call a medicine man, he’ll think you’re staying at a cheap inn. Besides, there is a… bath here.”
“Really?”
“You did it, brother Yuuji! Charles, you’re getting in the bath!”
“Alice, come with me.”
“…Baths?”
Yuuji, Alice, and Lise were happy to hear Kevin’s words. Alice’s brother, Charles, doesn’t seem to know what a bath is and looks unsure.
It was the spring of the fifth year since Yuuji had arrived in this world.
After a seven-day journey from the city of Premiere, Yuuji has finally arrived in the otherworldly metropolis of Riviere, the royal capital.
It seems that Yuji is going to take his first bath outside of his home in this world.
Still, the number of children around Yuji is steadily increasing, while the number of women of his age is not increasing any time soon. He felt more like a foster parent.
At 34 years old, Yuuji is still going to be a bachelor.

I’m not sure if Yuuji has arrived at the royal capital by now.
I’m not sure what to make of that. I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to do it.
The village of Hojo is a frontier without Yuuji.
This is the first time I’ve been able to take the lead.
The leader of the cultivation is Blaise, a former 3rd level adventurer of the Dark Green Wind. He is now the deputy mayor of Houjou Village.
Blaise leaves his home with his wife, Celine, an archer.
Yes.
The two family dwellings that were built in the pioneer village were provided to the beastman family and the deputy village chief Blaise and his wife.
Since Yuuji and the others left, the construction of two more houses had been underway. In order to prioritize speed, the interiors were left untouched, as was the case with the other family dwellings, and the girders were being built first.
One of the next two houses will be occupied by Dominic, the shield-bearer of The Deep Green Wind, and his wife, a former slave.
Depending on how things go, the other house will be occupied by the Needle and his wife, or by Enzo, the scout from The Deep Green Wind, and Yvonne, who will be taking on the job.
The deputy mayor decided that by the time they returned, at least one more house would have been built. The deputy mayor has decided that another house should be ready by the time he returns, so the tenants for the other house are still undecided.
“Mr. Blaise! Good morning!”
“Oh, good morning. Who’s part of the search party today?
Blaise was greeted by five former adventurers who had come to Hojo Village as part of the second pioneer group. All of them were men.
They were all single and had no interaction with women, they were too busy working hard to develop the area. At the same time, three women arrived here as apprentice seamstresses. On top of that, those with wives were given priority for housing. It was only natural for them to be enthusiastic.
A blacksmith on a business trip, a former adventurer, and a seamstress apprentice teamed up and continued their search. The name of the search is still active, but now it’s mostly used as a relaxation activity.
By the way, no couples have been formed yet. However, it looks like we’re already about to witness a breakup.
The construction work is progressing steadily, the cultivation and farming work is speeding up with the increase in the number of people, the apprentice seamstresses are improving their skills, and the plan to build a canning factory is gradually getting underway.
The second pioneer group is welcomed and Yuuji and his friends set out on a journey to the pioneer village of Hojo.
Fourteen pioneers and a group of craftsmen on a business trip seemed to be making good progress.
Even without the leader of the pioneers.
