　I was a day late entering the labyrinth city due to an unscheduled camping trip, but I was able to fulfill my nonsensical obsession and had a surprisingly good time. The next morning, when I entered the labyrinth city with my new equipment, I was immediately followed by ....... I thought it might be due to the conspicuous armor of the light dragon, but it seems to be different. What will happen to the tail ......?

"Yuta, the tails have parted and one of them is going somewhere to report."

　The tails have parted. We're up to the next level, but we don't know if there are any signs of people around. I want to have the skill to detect the presence of people.

(You're keeping an eye on the one who went to report too, right?)

"Yeah, I've got the wind in my sails, so I won't lose them wherever they go."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Hmmm...then we don't need to follow the one who is following us now. If Sylphy is watching the one who went to the report, we can get some information there. If he's looking for me, he'll know that I'm staying at Mr. Toruku's place, but there's no need to take him there.

　Besides, if I can get off his tail, I can send Mel there first. They may be looking into Mel, but we don't know how much information they have on him. We don't need to give them information as well as the inn.

（Sylphy, can you knock out the tail that's following us now without causing a scene?)

"Well, it's a little more public than you'd think, so it might be a bit of a hassle on the main street."

　Ah, even though it's easy to make lights with life magic, there's not much entertainment, so everyone has to go to bed early and get up early. Even though it is still early in the morning, there are quite a few people moving around. And my flashy armor is attracting a lot of attention. I feel a little disappointed, thinking that I could have enjoyed their eyes a little more if I wasn't being followed.

（Okay. I'm going into the alley for now, and when I run out of people's eyes, knock him out and roll him over.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Okay, but don't you want me to get information from the tail?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Yeah, I can't interrogate him.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's true."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's sad when they are easily convinced. But it's true, so there's no point in sulking. I lead everyone into the alley.

"Why?

　As we entered the alley, Bell approached us curiously. I guess he wonders because it's not often that I go into an alley in the Maze City. Even in my memory, I only enter them when I'm visiting a liquor store or when I have something to do.

　Gina and the others look a little strange, but they seem to be aware of what's going on, as they hear me whispering, regardless of the content.

"Mite kuru", "cue", "keikai", "kuku", "moayasu ka?" ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When Sylphy explained to Bell and the others why they had entered the alley, their curiosity was aroused and they went to have a look. Fuchu and her friends are staying with Gina and her friends. ...... Maybe Belle and her friends are more childish?　And Flare, don't burn it.

　We continue down the alley, and as we turn the corner, I check behind us and see Bell and the others floating to a stop at a distance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I can't see them from my side, but I guess that the tail is probably in the shadows where the bells are floating. If the tailor has the gift of the necromancer, we're in for a rough ride. If you're following a genie, the genies are gathering above your head. Obviously, he would think he's been detected.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, he doesn't seem to be in a hurry, so I guess he doesn't have the gift of the genie. Even if he does, he can't escape from Sylphy, so it doesn't make any difference anyway.

"Then I'll just stun him..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sylphy lightly waved her right hand, and there was a thud from where Belle and the others were floating. ......It's not so much something, but definitely the sound of a tail falling.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yuta, it was oohing and aahing, cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu-cu, it's not long enough! ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Bell and the others came to tell us that their tails were down, should we check out what kind of people they are?　...... if you know who it is, Sylphy will tell you, and there's no point in me looking.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Let's just praise Bell and the others and get the hell out of here. First, let's send Mel back to the workshop and then we'll stop at the inn. I can't wait to find out who's following us.

"Meru!"

　When they arrived at Mel's workshop, Eunice swooped in. Gwash! He hugged Mel with such force that the words seemed to appear in the background.

"Yoo, Yunice, I'm home."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Mel!　I was worried when you didn't come home yesterday!　Mel, are you okay?　Are you hurt?　Did they do anything strange to you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Ah ...... I had no idea that missing out on entering the labyrinth city yesterday would have such an effect on me ....... But still, I can't believe how little trust Eunice has in me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm fine. I'm not hurt and they won't do anything strange to me. It was very informative, don't worry. Besides, I have some souvenirs for you to look forward to."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Mel, annoyed by Eunice's vigor, tries to divert the conversation with a souvenir. I'd like to believe it's not my influence.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Souvenirs?　Mel for me?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Uh, yeah. It's not much, but the master gave me some good stuff, so you can count on it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Eunice was moved by Mel's words and began to rub her cheeks against him furiously. I guess she didn't hear him say he was giving it to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had a hard time choosing a souvenir for Eunice. There are almost no souvenirs in the land of the dead, and I thought about taking some alcohol made by spirits as a souvenir, but I decided to put it on hold this time because the spirit kings' visit had made me consume alcohol rapidly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Since the general stores basically buy only goods from the labyrinth city, there is little point in buying them in the land of the dead. The materials related to the spirit tree are dangerous, and there are no specialties that can be easily sold. Shall we develop affordable products?

"Hey, Yunis. Your hoppe is hot."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... Apparently, Mel's hoppe has gotten hot from Yunice's passionate cheek kisses. I wonder if it will catch on fire sooner or later.　I would have liked to have heard from Eunice, but from the looks of things, she wouldn't have stopped even if I'd called out to her.　

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（Uh, Meral. We're going to the inn, you take care of Mel. I told her I was being followed so I'm sure she'll be fine, but you should be more cautious than usual.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I beckon Meraru, who is looking at Yunis with dismay, and give him another warning. Well, let's go to the inn.

"Good morning, Martha. I'd like to stay the night, is that okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, Yuta. I didn't recognize you for a moment because of your fancy equipment."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, you'd be surprised to see a guy with a plain suit of armor change into a flashy suit of lightly shining armor the next time you see him, wouldn't you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Ha-ha, I've updated my equipment a bit."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I see. I think it looks good on you. So, sorry about the room ....... We don't have any rooms available."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Martha says with an apologetic look on her face. What?　No room?　......I know it's an innkeeper's house and such things can happen, but it's a bit of a shock. I've always been able to get a room, so I thought it would be no problem this time either.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'd like to do something about it because Yuta has been taking care of me a lot, but I can't afford it at all. ......, I'm really sorry."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, I'm an innkeeper, so it happens. Don't worry about it. You look tired. Are you all right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Martha, who always seems to be in good spirits and a mother with a big heart, looks strangely sober.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah, I'd like to say I'm fine, but honestly, it's tough. I've put out a job application to the commercial guild, but there are cooks from other cities who want to steal the inn's flavor, and it's a mess, so I can't get anyone to come.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Huh?　Didn't you say that recipes are shared only in the labyrinth cities?　Even if this restaurant is the original source of the recipe, do you get that many customers and cooks?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I know that Torque's food is delicious, and that's why people come, but is it that good?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The commercial guilds in the labyrinthine city are making a lot of fancy moves and attracting a lot of attention, but milk is concentrated in sweetness, so this inn is the only one that can make dishes using milk. People come from other cities, the inn is always full, and the dining hall is always crowded when it's available. ......They make a lot of money, though. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Come to think of it, I think I promised the commercial guild that I would make a special wholesale deal with Mr. Toruku for milk. Did that result in a big crowd? I know it's not a bad thing, but I'm causing a lot of trouble at this inn. Oh, Mr. Kark is staggering around with eyes like a dead fish.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hey, hey Gina, Sara. The inn looks pretty busy. Do you need any help?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Please follow me as an apprentice to clean up your master's mess. If Gina and Sara help not only cooking but also serving, it will be much easier for Martha and the others. At the very least, please bring Kark's eyes back to life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You look busy. I'll do my best to help you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll do my best.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Both of them were not scared of Martha's condition and were very motivated to help.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Mr. Martha! I'll send Gina and Sarah to help you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That would be great. I'm sorry you couldn't stay at the inn.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, you've always been a great help to us. Of course.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I'm going to miss staying at this inn. Should we at least sign an annual contract when a room becomes available?　But it is not good to monopolize a room that is not used when it is already full. It would be wise to wait for the milk to spread or for Mr. Toruku to build more inns, as he said before. The problem is that they don't seem to have time to build more rooms.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Now ...... where should we stay this time? We could ask Marie to let us stay at her villa. It would be fun to have a maid take care of me this time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Oh, I was being followed. Sylphy got rid of them, but I don't want to ask them to let us stay at Marie's place, since it might cause trouble to her. Considering that, I can't cause any more trouble to Mr. Toruku and the others, and it's not so bad that I can't stay at this inn.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Martha, do you know where the most expensive inn in the labyrinth city is?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Hmm?　You mean expensive?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. If I can't stay here, I'm going to splurge a little.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With the tailing thing and all, the more expensive places are probably more secure. I don't think it would matter with Sylphy around.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, I don't know if we can stay there or not, but is it okay if it's an inn where nobles and such stay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... If it's an upscale inn, does that mean it's for aristocrats?　I don't think I and Gina and the other commoners would feel comfortable staying in such a place.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, how should I put it? It should be an upscale kind of place where relatively wealthy people stay, without aristocrats or anything like that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's a very difficult thing to say. ...... Then, how about an inn for high-level merchants who come to the labyrinth city to buy?　Nobles rarely stay there, and sometimes lower class nobles stay there."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"There, please."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That sounds about right for us. Well, for Gina and Sara, staying at a fancy inn and helping out at an inn for adventurers would be a subtly strange move. It's kind of strange.
