After buying a coat, we went into a nearby restaurant for a quick bite to eat, then turned around and stopped at the magic shop, Luka. Alma and the others were no longer there, though.
　I rummaged through the store and bought a non-attribute related book that caught my eye. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work for you. Such grimoires are rare.
　However, there is an interesting magic dictionary of sorts that covers all the rare magic that has ever appeared in the world. This is, of course, almost a non-attribute magic. This is a treasure trove for me.
　And the price is not very high. It's not too expensive. It's not a book for learning magic. It's not a book for learning magic, it's just an entertainment book.
　I also bought a packet of cookies as a souvenir for Mika-san at the inn, and decided to return to the meeting place. The sun is about to set.

'Ah, here we are at last. O-sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
'Huh?　You guys are early, right?　It's not even meeting time yet.

　Three people were waiting in front of the inn's carriage, with quite a lot of luggage on the back of the cart. 'How much did you guys buy?

''Oh?　What are you doing wearing a coat on a winter night?

　It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.

It's not just a matter of time before you find yourself in the middle of the night. It reduces attack magic for all attributes. And also blade resistant, heat resistant, cold resistant, and anti-shock effects.
'All attribute reduction is amazing.... How much did you spend?
Eight gold pieces.
High!　...But considering the effects, I wonder if it's not too expensive...

　Apparently, Else is also losing her financial sense.
　Now that everyone was here, we got into the carriage and decided to leave. The reins were held by Yae, and I sat next to Yae in the Gosha-dai since the back of the carriage seemed to be too small with the ladies' luggage.
　I could use the gate from here and return to the riffle right away, but I don't want to stand out. For now, it was decided that we would leave the royal capital and then move on.
　When we left the King's Capital, we didn't have to produce a medal and we could easily pass through. As it was, we drove the carriage for a while, and once we were far enough away that the royal capital looked small, we had Yae stop the carriage.

''What are you going to do in a place like this, that I'm afraid?''

　Yae, who doesn't know about the gate, asks curiously.

'Would you rather go out on the street a little earlier than into town?'
Yeah, I think it's better that way.

　As I listened to Else's words, I focused my magic power while conjuring up an image of the scene of the appearance.

''The Gate.''

　A gate of light appears in front of you. It should be big enough for a carriage to get through.

''What? Why is that?　This!
Yes, go ahead and do it.

　He hurried the dismayed Yae to advance the carriage. As they passed through the Gate of Light, a large sunset was just about to set over the mountains to the west of the riffle.

''I knew it would be convenient. This magic.''
Five days in a wagon is a fraction of a second.
The problem is that you can't go there unless you've been there once.
So what's going on, that I don't know what's going on?

　We were filled with a sense of relief that we had returned, despite Yae's still not understanding the situation.



　For now, it was getting dark, so we decided to report to Zanuck tomorrow.
　We parked our carriage in front of the Gingetsu and went inside the shop to report to Mika. Of course, Ginsuki hadn't changed at all since we left. Of course, there was no way that something would change in just five or six days. However, I opened the door to the inn and found that it was different from the usual.

Welcome. Do you want to stay the night?

　A red-haired, bearded man with a stocky body greeted us from behind the counter.

　........Huh?　Who?

'Well we were staying here and we just got back from work...'
Oh, the guests. I'm sorry, I've never seen them before.
Um, where's Mica?
'Huh?　Are you all back?　That was fast.

　Micah appeared from the kitchen, still wearing his apron.

'Micah-san, who is this guy?'
Oh, I don't think we've met. That's my dad. He's just back from stocking up on stuffers in a distant land, like you guys.
This is Dolan. Nice to meet you.
"Huh...

　I reflexively take the offered hand. It's true that the color of your hair and other things are similar. The personalities seem to be similar, though. I get the feeling that neither of them care about the details. I'm glad they don't look alike, even their faces.
　Mr. Dolan said he went to the south to buy some spices. It's hard to get much salt and pepper around here, so he buys a lot of them for other people in the store at once.

''Oh, well then, Doran-san, I'll take care of this girl's room, please.
Yeah.

　I push the octogenarian's back to the counter. We carry our bags to our rooms while she goes through the formalities. Else leaves as she returns the carriage.

'Oh, Micah, here's a gift for you.'
Oh, thank you. How was King's Landing?
It was big. And a lot of people.

　I laugh and answer Micah's question in a straightforward manner while handing him a souvenir cookie.
　I'll be honest, I was back soon enough. I've been gone for less than a day. I can always go back using the gate, so the next time I'm there we'll see things.
　Mika treated us to dinner to celebrate our safe return. We ate quite a bit of the various dishes served, but Yae ate several times as much as we did. Yae ate several times as much as we did. Both Mika and Dolan were amazed at Yae's low mileage.
　After that, Yae had to add the food bill to the accommodation fee. That's just the way it is.
