3 days later .
After traveling peacefully these past few days, we finally arrived at the Town of Gaunago, where the residence of the duke’s family was .
But as soon as we arrived, a new problem visited us at the gate .
“I’ll ask one more time . You are Fei-dono and Ryoumkun . What is your objective for coming to Gimuru?” [Guard]
“I own a store, so I came here to have an audience with the duke . ” [Ryouma]
“And I am his guard . ” [Fei]
“But you didn’t go through the road from Kereban and instead went into the depths of the Forest of Gana, where you happened into 15 bandits, which you then killed . Is that correct?” [Guard]
“Perfectly correct . ” [Ryouma]
“Normally, you would go through the main road . Why would you go out of your way to go into a forest where it’s hard to walk?” [Guard]
“I once lived at that forest for some time . We just dropped by to see it since it’s a nostalgic place for me . I’m also an adventurer, so I’m used to walking through forests . It’s a lot faster than having to go around . ” [Ryouma]
“I see… But Fei-dono, I see that you’re not an adventurer . ” [Guard]
“I have experience working as a soldier at my homeland . I gained my skill as an escort and how to walk through forests from there . ” [Fei]
“A soldier from Zilmar . ” [Guard]
“Former soldier . ” [Fei]
“I see, I see…” [Guard]
…It’s been like this the whole time since I was moved to a room at the office of the guards . He’s been repeating the same thing over and over .
Although his demeanor is soft, he’s completely taken us in for questioning .
As someone who’s received this sort of treatment a lot in my past life, I can tell that he’s suspicious of us .
Still, isn’t it about time he let us go already?
This is way too long just to confirm the veracity of my claims for the bandit reward .
Is it really so suspicious to find a kid who lived at a forest for three years accompanied by a former soldier from another country?
