This is Apristos, a country...

　Akali walked along the main road that stretched through the middle of Aplistos' royal capital, with Tet in her arms.

　This was the kingdom of the human race closest to Alheim (the kingdom of the elves), a country that had waged war on Alheim in the past.

　The one who was guiding that war behind the scenes was the demon Amon.

　However, a certain wise man and his companions were in Alheim at the time, which thwarted the demon's plans.

　The national army of Apristos, which had gone to war, was sent back to this country by the wise man's magic, and the demon was annihilated by the wise man.


'It's a big city, isn't it?'

That's right.

Hey, Tet. That's a lot of talk.

　The Tet in his arms responded normally, and Akari became impatient.

'It's just a matter of leverage. There seems to be a lot of talking creatures in this world.

Oh, really?

Yeah!

　Tet seems to have some knowledge of this world.

"When he asks about Tet, you say, 'I'm home.

Okay. I will.

　He said that he could tame animals and demons that could talk and turn them into messengers. Once again, Akari felt that she was in another world.

　She could talk to Tet without worrying about being seen. It made her a little happy to realize that.

　It's because it's still uncomfortable to walk around a strange land alone.

''I wonder where the production guild is?''

　She was going to visit the production guild that the guards had told her about first.

　She figured that if she could register with the guild, she would be able to prove her identity and get the money to live on this world.

'Akari. It's over there.

Oh. Tet, do you understand?

Yeah. Tet, I know a little bit about this world.

　Tet had the knowledge and ability to guide them through this world, just as he had guided Akari through the dark forest where they didn't even know the direction, and brought her to this country.

'Yes, that's very reassuring,' said Tet. ─ Yes, that's very reassuring. Let me rely on you, Tet.

Yeah. I'll do it!


　***

　Akali walked over with Tet leading the way.

'The production guild ... right here.

　The building with 'Production Guild' written in large letters above the entrance was right in front of her.

　She had forgotten about it because she was talking to the guards normally, but Akari was able to understand the language of this world.

　It was because the goddess of the original world had given her the skill of .

　This has the same effect as the skill that Luna has, and Akari has gained the power to read even the letters of the gods of this world.

　There were many people coming and going in the production guild, and Akari entered the building with the flow of people.


''Hey, you. What are you doing?''

　When Akari was scurrying around, unsure of what to do, although he entered, he was called out from behind.

''Ah, er........''

　I turned to see a young woman with brown hair and a ponytail standing there.

'A request?　Or are you here to register with the guild?

I'm here to register.

Yeah, that's the way. It's this way.

　Akali was pushed back by the woman and led to the back of the guild.


'Okay, you'll have to fill out this piece of paper and sit there.

　At the back of the production guild, there was a counter for accepting requests and so on. A woman with a ponytail entered the counter and presented a piece of paper in front of Akari.

　It seems that the woman who brought Akari to me was the receptionist of this guild.

　The paper presented to me had the following items on it.

　Name, age, and items that can be produced.

　Akali fills in each column.

　Name: Akali.
　Age: 15
　Items that can be produced: accessories

　Since it would be troublesome if they found out I was an otherworlder, Tet had told me that it would be better not to use my original world's surname here, so I only wrote my name.

　I kept my age the same as in the original world.

　As for items that could be produced, I thought of earrings, bracelets and other accessories that I had made as a hobby in the original world and filled them in.

''My name is Akari. It's nice to meet you.

　As I introduce myself, I hand the paper back to the woman with the ponytail.

'Yes, thank you. Oh, my name is Eliza. It's nice to meet you.

　The receptionist was named Eliza.

'Miss Eliza. Again, nice to meet you.

I'll make a guild card. Okay, I'll make a guild card. I'll make a guild card.

　Lisa pulled a fist-sized crystal from under the counter.

'It's a rule. I'm going to have to use this one to find out if Akari wrote the truth, just in case.

　She placed the magic tool called 'Crystal of Truth and Falsehood' on the counter.

''What should I do with this?''

'I want you to hold the paper Akali wrote on in your hand, touching this crystal and saying, 'There is no falsehood in what I wrote here.'

I understand. Um ... what I wrote on this paper is not a lie.

　The crystal Akali had placed her right hand on glowed blue.

'Yeah, looks like you're okay. 'Thanks.'

　There didn't seem to be any problems.


'Yes. 'So this is Akari's guild card.'

　A little later, Eliza handed Akali a card.

'Thank you!'

　Akari, holding the card in her hand, gives a big smile.

''Ufufu, good luck from now on.

'Yes. I'll do my best!

　Seeing the smiling Akari, Eliza also gives a gentle smile.

''By the way, does Akari live in this royal capital?''

No, no, no.

So, you're just going to drive here from the nearest town or something?

I...

　It's hard to say not to have a home.
　Or that you don't have parents.

Don't you have a place to live?

Yes.

　Eliza made a point of telling him.

　Akari wondered what to do, but decided to answer honestly, thinking that maybe Eliza would be able to talk to her about it.

''Right. Then you can live on the second floor of this guild house. You won't even need to pay rent for up to three months until the items are sold and your income is stable.''

You sure you want to do this?

Yes. Our guild also functions to help young people under the age of 18 become more independent. There are many children with special needs, so anyone can live there until they cause a problem or turn 18.

　However, it seems that the room that can be rented out is not very large. If you try to make various items in your own room, you'll inevitably end up with a cramped room.

　In addition, many newcomers, once they've gained some ability, find a master at a weapon shop, armor shop, or tool shop in the King's Capital and work in a live-in environment, so the rooms in the guild house are rather empty.

''I understand. Well then, I'll take care of you until I save up some money.''

I love you!　There are five girls living in the guild house right now. I'll introduce them to you later. I'll manage the rooms and so on, so if you have any problems, please contact me.

Yes. It's nice to meet you.

And there's not much of a...

　Eliza held out a small bag to Akali.

'Eliza-san, what is this?'

Just a little money for now. You don't have any money, do you?　Oh, don't get me wrong. This is just a temporary loan.

But, no...

　I can't help but feel uncomfortable borrowing money when I don't have any achievements and I don't even know if the items I made will sell.

''If Akari can't make a living as a producer, I'll ask you to help me run the guild.

　If the items don't sell, they can become the guild's receptionist, clean the guild house, or work as a waiter at the restaurant attached to it.

'Akari is cute, so I think it's possible for her to become a receptionist.

A, I'll do my best to sell the item!

　Akari came to this world to defeat the Demon King. She wanted to secure a base and funds for information gathering and other purposes, so there was no problem registering with the production guild.

　However, once she became the guild's receptionist and was able to make a stable living, she might be tempted to be satisfied with that and leave the Demon King alone.

　Akari was a girl with a strong sense of responsibility.
　Her primary goal was to defeat the Demon King.

　However, even if she defeated the Demon King, she couldn't return to the original world, so Akari had slowly begun to think about what to do after defeating the Demon King.


The best thing about it is that it's very easy to get rid of it. Akari.

Nice to meet you!

　Akari had many worries after arriving in another world, but in this way, she was able to get a base of operations safely.
