On the fourth, fifth, and sixth days of the port festival, the four of them in Room 10 focused on eating at shops instead of street stalls.
Of course, the main activity was eating.
There were a few minor issues, but they were nothing compared to the satisfaction of eating.
Then finally came the seventh and last day of the port festival.
On this day, there was going to be a garden party in the courtyard of the Lord's Manor in the evening, so there was a lot of traffic in and out of the manor for decorations and preparations from the morning.
Moreover, the city itself was bustling with excitement for the after-party on the last night.
Among them were many unfamiliar vendors, but since representatives from various countries were bringing their attendants, it was natural for there to be many unfamiliar faces.
It was inevitable that security would show some cracks.
That said, the time passed quietly without any particular issues until evening.
Of course, that was considering the chaos of the port festival.
The four of them in Room 10 suddenly realized this after finishing their lunch that day.
“Hey... by the way, since we arrived in this city, we haven't shown our faces at the adventurers' guild even once...”
Nils timidly brought it up first.
“Ah...”
“Is it necessary to show your face at the guild?”
“Well, we can only ask our seniors about that. Amon and I have just become adventurers.”
Eto, who had completely forgotten, was speechless, while Amon and Ryo were unaware of the necessity.
It was indeed not particularly mentioned during the beginner's seminar they attended at the guild.
“It's not a strict rule, but there are times when the guild communicates notifications to adventurers. Also, if you're going to engage in any activities as an adventurer in the city you visit, it's better to inform them to avoid complications later on.”
Explaining such matters was more Eto’s job than Nils’.
“Well then, let’s go show our faces now. It’s not like we have any acquaintances there... If there’s no problem after we show up, we can go back to eating! I can’t believe there’s a great seafood pasta place just one street behind North Street... totally a blind spot for me…”
“Thanks to the information from Lin and the others!”
Saying this, the four of them from Room 10 headed towards the Whitnash Adventurers' Guild.
The Whitnash Adventurers' Guild was quite sizable.
Though it wasn't as large as the one in the City of Run, being the premier port city of the Naitorei Kingdom, the number of adventurers and requests were quite substantial.
“I’ve never seen such a big guild outside of Run...”
“Yeah, it’s impressive.”
Eto and Nils were equally impressed by its size.
Upon entering, even though it was afternoon, there were quite a few people loitering around.
In the City of Run, the guild at this time would be rather empty.
“I guess because it’s the festival period, there are more people in the guild?” Ryo said something strange, but nobody pointed it out.
This was because Nils, who usually played the role of the comic relief, had spotted someone he shouldn’t have seen.
At the same time, the other party had also spotted Nils.
“What the hell are you doing here?”
“Huh? That’s my line, you punk.”
Nils and Dan began a conversation reminiscent of some delinquent banter.
Yes, Dan from Room 1 and his entourage were also at the guild.
While Nils and Dan were in a hostile state, the others exchanged greetings without any particular issues.
In particular, the scout from Room 1, who was led by Dan, was chatting amicably with Amon, who was led by Nils.
It seemed that a bond had formed as they had experienced sinking and being thrown into the sea together during their last boat adventure.
And then,
“Hey, you’re Sasha from Room 2, right? Long time no see.”
“Oh, it’s Eto from Room 10. It’s been a while.”
The two priests were greeting each other.
As for Ryo, he didn’t know any of Dan’s entourage, so he just greeted them and absentmindedly stared at the bulletin board.
