We headed for the guild, looking at the stalls lining the main street.

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

The guild in this village seems to be located on the main street.

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

As I went around the stalls, I noticed that many of them were selling soup.

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

In fact, half of them are soup shops.

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

There are many soup shops in this village. Is this village famous for soup?

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

Even yesterday's inn was a special soup from Hatau village.

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

No, when I was here before, there wasn't this much soup.

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

Could it be because it's winter?"

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

Maybe so.

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

In winter, you want something warm, don't you?

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

By the way, the soups in this village are full of different colors.

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

I can somehow recognize the ingredients in the red and green soups.

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

Oh, and I can guess the orange soup.

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

But what is the purple soup?

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

I mean, I don't feel like eating that color for a minute.

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

Ugh, I might be more reserved about ...... blue.

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

The colors are amazing."

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

Mr. Druid's face contorted when he saw the blue soup.

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

Good, I couldn't agree with him if he said it looked delicious.

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

'Yup. It smells good, but what can I say about the way it looks?"

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

'Yes, I suppose so. I never thought about it, but I guess looks do matter."

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

I'm not sure I'd like that. I think so."

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

But still, there are so many different colors.

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

Some are too bright to be the colors of ingredients, and some are colors that don't appear in ingredients.

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

Is it to create individuality?

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

That building.

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

The druid's gaze fell on three large buildings.

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

Each has the markings of a commercial guild, an adventurers' guild, and a vigilante group.

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

I'm thrilled to see what kind of results we'll get."

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

He lightly taps the bag he carries on his shoulder, the one containing the minerals.

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

'Yeah, most of the minerals I didn't know about.

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

When we checked the minerals mined in the cave, many of them were unknown to Mr. Druid, and we could not predict their prices.

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

So today, for the time being, we planned to sell five each of the eight minerals we obtained in the cave.

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

I chose the smallest ones I could find, just in case.

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

However, I chose three small blackstones, which Mr. Druid said were rare.

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

The target amount was 15 radars for lodging and 25 gidars for cloak and clothes.

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

The additional items to be sold will be determined by today's results, as they will probably not be enough.

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

If I can reach my goal of 5 each of the 8 types and 3 black stones, that will scare the contents of my bag.

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

If not that, there are glowing potions and clear magic stones in it.

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

Do you want me to have that one appraised here?"

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

Oh, that's the plan," he said. We need to know what it is or we won't be able to use it."

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

That is the black sphere that Mr. Serpent gave me.

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

Since we have no idea what kind of power it has, we plan to have it appraised anyway.

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

I was quite hesitant to do so because of the possibility of scary results.

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

I decided that it would be better than not knowing anything at all.

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

When we entered the guild, we found three men dressed as adventurers and a middle-aged man standing around at the entrance talking.

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

As we walked by, we heard that the guardian god of the village of Hatau had appeared deep in the forest.

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

The guardian god of Hatau village?

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

The druid seemed to be curious, too, and stopped a short distance away.

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

'Did anyone see him?'

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

No, I heard there were traces."

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

Only traces?"

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

The guardian deity is a giant snake. It's the biggest serpent around here. You'll know it when you see its tracks."

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

A giant serpent?

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

It reminds me of Mr. Serpent I saw deep in the forest, who had strange patterns all over his body.

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

It was a mysterious presence.

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

If so, it was definitely a guardian deity.

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

Yeah, he said he might have had a forest fairy with him."

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

Forest fairies?

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

Really?"　I believe they say fairies are a figment of your imagination?"

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

Well, yes, but there are many who believe they exist."

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

What are you talking about, fairies?"

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

Apparently, middle-aged men don't know.

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

Good, thanks to the stranger, we can learn a little more about fairies.

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

What, you don't know?"

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

Fairies are messengers of the guardian gods. They are creatures with black bodies.

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

Creatures with black bodies?

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

A glimpse reminds me of a creature I met in the forest.

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

A huge serpent, a black creature .......

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

No way, right?

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

'The literature says you can change into a black sphere. But you won't find any more fairies than guardian deities, though. There haven't been too many witnesses, so people started saying it was a figment of their imagination some time ago."

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

The story of the three adventurers continues, but the words they said go round in my head.

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

Giant serpents and black creatures.

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

And it can be a sphere.

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

I look at Mr. Druid and our eyes meet as he was also looking at me.

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

Somehow we both laugh.

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

I gently move my feet to get away from the four of them.

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

I want to see the guardian gods, but I'd like to see the Black Pearl just once.

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

The words of one of the adventurers brought my legs to a halt.

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

I hear you can build a castle in King's Landing with just one piece.

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

I hear it's true."

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

Well, it's a legendary pearl."

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

A bad sweat trickles down my back.

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

I manage to move my legs, which have stopped, and hurry a little to get away from them.

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

They are both silent.

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

I let out a big breath to make sure no one is around.

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

Ivy, could it be?"

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

You might ......"

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

Hahaha."

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

While we moved to a less crowded corner, we overheard talk of a guardian deity.

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

Apparently, it is rumored to be so.

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

According to the literature, there is a white pattern on a black body, and there may be more than one fairy.

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

All of the stories are reminiscent of the giant serpent and black children encountered in the forest.

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

Incidentally, the power of the Black Pearl is said to be able to revive the dead.

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

The moment I heard that story, I imagined dead people coming out of the ground.

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

I hurriedly shook my head to get rid of the imagination.

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

It is the most unwanted thing I can remember from the past.

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

'What's wrong?　You don't look so good, are you okay?"

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

I'm fine. But still, the Black Pearl has great power, doesn't it?'

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

I'm not sure if it's possible. I've never heard of such a thing, so I assume it's just a rumor."

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

Is that so?"

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

If it had such power, word of the Black Pearl would be spreading around the world.

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

Indeed, Mr. Druid is right.

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

It is strange that the story is spreading only in this village.

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

Hah~ At any rate, I'm glad it was before I sent that thing out to be appraised.

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

I see."

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

I sigh as does Mr. Druid.

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

If I had sent it in for appraisal without knowing what to expect, I would have been in big trouble.

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

It is possible that it is not the Black Pearl, but it is too dangerous to be sure.

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

Let's put it away in the back of the bag.

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

'Well, there's no point in staying here, so let's go sell it.'

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

Yeah."

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

We rest for a while, but there is no point in staying here forever, so we start walking after Mr. Druid.

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

I looked at the counter and saw that the person in front of me had just finished, so it looked like I would be taken care of right away.

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

Welcome. Can I help you?"

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

At the guild's counter was a tight-looking woman with slightly frowny eyes.

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

She said, "I was able to extract some minerals from the cave, and I would like to sell them.

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

I'll be fine. Then please put what you are selling here.

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

The guild lady pulls out a small basket.

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

In it were eight different minerals, five of each, that she had decided to sell.

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

Finally, I put three black stones on top and return them to my sister.

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

She says, "Thank you. Please wait a moment.

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

When I return the basket to the lady, she hands me something that looks like a number tag.

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

I take it, sit down in the chair, and watch her.

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

The lady seems to have appraisal skills, and she checks each mineral one by one.

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

After a little while, I heard the sound of a chair collapsing, and then I saw her running somewhere in a hurry.

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

"Mr. Druid?"

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

'Ahh, rare, I guess. Hopefully not super-rare."

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

Yes, we should have had two each instead of five."

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

That's not the point, though. But surely why did they make the number a little high, five?

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

I don't want to see the sister a little excited and red in the face, or the man running upstairs after talking to her.
