They rented an empty house in the village of the Elves and spent the night there.

　He wondered what they would do.
　The knight had told him that bad things could happen in the land.
　That bothers me a lot. But coming home wasn't an option for Varamus.

　Then I'm wondering if the knight was looking for Romessa. It probably has something to do with the fact that she doesn't want to return to the country.
　Maybe it has something to do with something bad that's about to happen, Bellamus thinks.

　Anyway, he decided to go to King's Landing, no matter what. But he promised himself that he would go there with great caution.

　The next day, Beramus gave some meroons to the village elves as a thank you for letting him rent an empty house.
　It was well received. This would still work as a trade, he was convinced.

　Then they asked for directions to the capital.


　Circle.


　A few days later, I arrived at King's Landing.
　The gatekeepers of King's Landing stop me.

Are you human?　What is your business in King's Landing?

　He asked me.

"I'm here to make a deal.
Oh, yeah. In the meantime, can I just check your cargo?
I don't mind.

　The elves are going to check the carriage's cargo.

Never seen this before. What is it?
It's a vegetable called Meroon.
Yeah. There's nothing poisonous in there, right?
No problem. Want to try one?
Yeah. Let's eat to find out.

　He grabbed a meroon and ate it.

"It's delicious. I don't think it's poisonous or anything. And isn't this dragon dangerous?
Yeah, and if you don't do anything, he'll never attack you.
Yeah. Let me just touch it.

　The gatekeeper elf touches the forest dragon.

"Yes, he's quiet. He's all right. You can go through.
Yeah. So let me ask you one question, where do I go to make a deal?
Well..... There's the Merchant's Guild that runs the business in King's Landing, you can go there. Just go straight down this road and you'll find it.
"Thanks for the information.

　Permission was given, and Bellamus and the others entered the King's Landing.

　Since they would be traveling in the city by dragon carriage, they were quite conspicuous. He seemed to be attracting the attention of the elves.

　But as I moved through the city, I saw the elves busily preparing for something.
　They were painting and decorating buildings. It sounded like there was going to be a festival soon.

　If there will be a festival, Bellamus thinks he should at least try to see it.
　I'm not very familiar with the elven culture, so this would be a good opportunity to learn more about it.

　Then there was a sign that said the Merchants' Guild.
　In front of it, Bellamus left the dragon car and entered the merchants' guild.
