Chapter 195. The Residential Area Of The Town
“Wow!”
Upon seeing the scene before us, Kazane-san, Yuzuki, and I couldn’t help but let out exclamations of admiration.
The residential area of the Dwarf Town, Dagmahar, was a massive complex constructed using the slopes of the mountains, which had been gradually transformed for this purpose.
While using the mountain slopes might not seem extraordinary, we had visited a Dwarf village like this before.
However, the residential area of Dagmahal had a significant distinguishing feature.
The dwellings where people lived were carved and crafted directly into the rocky mountains, forming cave residences. In essence, the residents here lived inside caves.
However, despite being inside caves, appeared quite impressive in their own right. Although they were constructed using the natural rock formations of the mountain, they didn’t look all that different from regular stone-built houses.
Judging by the number of residences, the population here likely exceeded a thousand people. And as far as I could see, there were no inhabitants other than Dwarves.
We ventured further into the residential area.
At that moment, Eslyn-san stepped forward and turned around to face us.
“Hey there, we’ve finally arrived! We encountered various obstacles, but the escort mission is now complete. Thanks to the 3 of you for your help. The reward for this job is quite substantial, so I’ll pay you in gold coins, but be sure to count it.”
With those words, Eslyn-san handed us a pouch that felt surprisingly heavy.
I opened the pouch as Kazane-san and Yuzuki leaned in to peek inside.
“Wow!”
It was the second time today that we left in awe.
The pouch was overflowing with the golden gleam of coins.
Or at least, it seemed that way to me.
I reached in and pulled out one of the coins. These golden coins were about the size of a 500-yen coin, but they were much heavier due to their gold content.
In this world, these relatively common gold coins are called small gold coins. They are quite small, roughly the size of a pinky fingertip. They were significantly smaller than a one-yen coin.
However, the coin we received in the pouch was a different type of coin called a large gold coin. Large gold coins were 10 times the value of small gold coins.
In our terms, each of these coins was worth about 100,000 yen.
In other words, they were gold ingots weighing over 10 grams each.
When I checked the pouch’s contents, there were 48 of them.
Handling this amount of large gold made me feel giddy, and it reminded me that even as we grew stronger, we still retained some of that small-town excitement.
We received a similar number of large gold coins once before. That’s when we were commissioned by Aria-san to head to the Dragon Valley.
At that time, I had a specific purpose and used most of them quite quickly.
But this time, I might end up spending them just as fast.
I wondered if Dagmahar had high-quality weapons and armor for sale. I hoped the introduction letter I had received from the Dwarf village earlier, signed jointly by Badon-san, Dodurga-san, and Berga-sab, would help me.
And as usual, I received a notification of mission success. Ping

We did it!
We completed a triple success in a major mission, gaining a total of 60,000 points of extra-large experience!
We’ve come this far for this very reason. Our levels have also increased.
New missions keep popping up.
We’re on a roll!
As I thought about this, the acting chief of the town, Grunba-san, came over to us. He then spoke to us and Yusephia-san.
“Young warriors of the Human tribe, and the Dark Elf girl who is an acquaintance of our chief. Your arrival in our town must be fate. We warriors are about to hold a meeting in the assembly hall to discuss monster countermeasures. Would you care to join us? We’d like to request your cooperation as well. Of course, we will offer fair compensation.”
That’s a chance for a new request. Based on the patterns so far, we should go along with it. At the very least, we should listen to what they say.
With the agreement of Kazane-san and Yuzuki, I agreed to participate in the countermeasure meeting. And for Yusefia-san.
“Hmph, it’s not my concern. That’s what I want to say, but I’ll listen. Anyway, I have nothing else to do until Bargamund returns.”
She displayed an uncooperative attitude.
