That Threat seemed to Work Wonders as I held my Ass subconsciously...
Adventurers who were just starting out were poor...
It was normally impossible for us to rent a room in the tavern every night...
Usually, adventurers would share the rent with other adventurers and sleep in the communal room...
Alternatively, they could do what we were doing and sleep on the hay in the stables...
Yes, this was different from the adventurer lifestyle in an alternate world that I was looking forward to....
I have been waiting for a Grandpa who is actually a Supreme in Disguise but my Luck seems to be not High enough...
Even a Grandpa in a Ring wasn't found...
Even when I searched for a shady System from the Outer Universe it still wasn't found...
Moreover ,Staying in the tavern daily was the same as sleeping in a hotel every day in Japan...
It was impossible for adventurers with an unstable income to do so...
Indeed, our income wasn't stable...
No simple herb-picking or monster-hunting quests that appeared in games were available...
Monsters didn't burst into loot and money when you killed them...
In addition, the forest near town has long since been cleared of monsters...
The forest had turned safe after the monsters were gone, so no one would hire people to harvest materials for them...
This was obvious...
The outdoors was so safe that the children could roam free...
There were guards manning the gate, but instead of maintaining round-the-clock security, it was easier to exterminate all the dangerous monsters since the forest wasn't too large...
It was the most logical method, but I'd rather not know this...
An adventurer who was just slightly stronger than normal people spending half a day harvesting herbs that were easy to spot and earning enough for food and lodging...
There was no way such an easy job existed...
Japan was a prosperous nation on Earth, but even so, no laborer could live in a hotel on their daily pay...
Minimum wage? Labour laws? What were those? Could we eat them????
That was the kind of world this was...
It was a Real Harsh World...
Unlike the Protagonists who suddenly Awakened and their Realms increased like a Rocket or some Sage Grandsons who were only Highschoolers and somehow were able to control Mana that was hella different from Physics and directly create Hydrogen Bombs...
There wasn't even such a Perk...
I mean obviously I know the Equation of how to do a Nuclear fission Process but I can't magically create such a thing...
I can't even combine Hydrogen to combust and then Oxygen to make long lived fire and then throwing it on the Enemy in a Barrage...
I really want to Throw that Brainless Sage who Inexplicable awakened a Body Circulating Method of Mana with his Paltry Knowledge of Highschool level Physics, Chemistry and Biology...
No wait, Don't they Study Frogs in the Labs instead of Humans...
How did this guy Figure those things out...
Could it be...
He was Actually Studying Rumoured God-Level Frog Clan Young Masters...
He's too Brave to the Extreme...
"It's useless even if you tell me these things...
This is the town furthest away from the Demon King's castle after all!!!
(Beldia:Sticks out his Head which Falls forward and is Kicked by Vanir using Fire Tornado move of Axel Blaze from Inazuma Eleven)
Who would come all the way to attack a town of beginners at the borders???
Anyway… Kazuma wants to live more like an adventurer, right???
You don't even have the proper equipment!!!"
Aqua went straight to the point, and I couldn't protest...
That was right, Aqua and I didn't even have a full set of basic equipment...
We were hoping to buy them, which was why we were working so hard at the construction site...
"I'm getting bored of construction too...
I didn't come to this world to be a labourer; I came to this world with no computers and games to adventure...
And didn't you send me here to challenge the Demon King???"
After hearing what I said, Aqua made a 'what are you talking about' face, pondered for a moment, and then responded...
"Oh! There was such a thing! I forgot, immersed in the happiness of working. I can't go back if Kazuma doesn't defeat the Demon King..."
Listening to her dumb reply, I recalled the counter lady's words...
It seemed that this girl's intelligence really was Rock Bottom...
"All right, let's go challenge the Demon King!!!
(Koichi Yasaka:...)
Don't worry; it'll be a breeze with me here! Look forward to my performance!!!"
"That makes me uneasy...
However, you're a goddess after all, so I'm counting on you(Truck-God:Don't Court Death Kazuma-kun)!!!
Okay, we'll buy some basic weapons and armor with the money we saved and go grinding tomorrow!!!"
"Leave it to me!!!"
"Didn't I tell you two to Shut it? Do you want me to beat you up???"
"I'm very sorry!!!"
As we apologized to the other adventurers, I got ready to sleep with a heart full of excitement...
