I Own A Brothel In Another World (Ch. 1-196)

Chapter 44 - Through the Eyes of Another: The Samurai's First Transformation

Surprisingly, considering all that happened last night, I wake up quite well-rested. Maybe that's because I had this amazing dream where we fought together with sensei side by side. His support magic made me feel unbeatable and we bulldozed through a whole army of those weird creatures.

「Haaaaaah... I wonder what abilities can sensei use. He always avoided questions about his Class...」

I shake my head to clear my thoughts and release a long yawn. After a short toilet time, I join Natalie-san and Paul-san in the middle of our camp to eat a light breakfast. Soon, the rest of our party also wakes up and we dine all together.

After packing up, we jump onto the horses we received from the King and resume our journey.

"So, we should be pretty close to Carivia now, right?" Kamil-san asks as we ride.

"We should arrive there before night falls. That's if nothing unexpected happens. The map we bought at the Adventurer's Guild is pretty solid," Paul-san answers calmly.

With how good he is with maps, there is no way that we will be lost or even step outside of the path. Paul-san's ability to work with them is really incredible. But well, he knows a lot about all that stuff connected to survival, which naturally includes navigating through various terrains and reading maps.

It wasn't easy, but we managed to convince Kamil-san to let Paul-san function as the leader. Fortunately, our encounter in the mines slightly opened his eyes to the dangers of this world. I'm glad that he relinquished that responsibility. Paul-san's commanding is really good and the fact that he can watch from the backline definitely helps a lot.

He has the best perception out of all of us. Which is kinda cliché. Guys in glasses always end up having the best sight in all the mangas and novels. Well, not like he actually needs them. He just has a thing for glasses. If I remember correctly, the lenses are just clear ones, made out of some kind of bulletproof material. So, I guess the trope doesn't work here perfectly.

I wonder if sensei likes real girls with glasses. I never asked. A lot of kuuderes are often designed with them. I bet he would say they suit mature girls perfectly. And I... don't exactly look like a mature woman... Now that I think of it, Cornelia-san gives such vibes. She seemed uninterested in things like love though. Well, maybe besides her love for research. I was expecting her to ask for permission to join our party so that she can observe us during our journeys, but I guess she couldn't do so due to her position under the King. She'd definitely be interested in learning more about us.

Five hours later, we begin to see the grey walls of Carivia, surrounding the city alongside the deep moat. Some traffic can be spotted around the main gate from this direction. We arrive closer and wait for our turn since it looks like there's a simple checkup on entry.

"Identity and purpose of the visit?" the guard asks us mechanically.

"Can't you see that we are heroes? We are travelling to get stronger and your town was just on our path," Kamil-san glances at the man in steel armour and emerald poncho-like cloak and points at his own gear.

The guard looks up at him and then back at his notes. "Right, and I'm half-abyssal. Grandma had a thing for glowing monkeys. You got ID cards or anything?"

Marcia-san chuckles at his retort and Kamil-san groans. Paul-san rides his horse closer and passes his adventurer card to the man.

"B-rank, huh. First time here?" Paul-san nods. "The Guild is in the eastern district then. Don't make any trouble in the town." He glances at the rest of us and we flash him our cards too. "Good. You can go. Next!"
