Omake no Tensei-sha

89 The gatekeeper of a town that has begun to show bustle

Welcome to Joshanka. It's a town where the wind is cold, but the people are warm. Take it easy. Welcome to Joshanka. It's a town where the wind is cold, but the people's hearts are warm." Take it easy. Welcome to Joshanka. It's a town where 'the wind is cold, but the hearts are warm.' Take it easy...'

Joshanka's guard, Sidelock, continues to chant the town's slogan sloppily, guiding the merchants and adventurers who come one after another into the town.

"If you have an ID card, please go to this line! Don't get in the way! First line up, line up!"

Sidelock's junior, Yoza (the young guard who dragged Emmy out of town while she was sleeping in the park), is also busy dealing with the waves of travelers.

A mysterious Yoshanka Boom suddenly appeared.

This movement, which is welcomed by the town as a whole, is an emergency that comes as a surprise to the guards, who continue to be reduced in number due to the declining population.

I desperately continued to respond while managing the placement with a small number of people.

I don't even have time to pick my nose.

It was Siderock's first experience working so hard.

"Senpai! It's about time to take over, catch copy! I want you to take a break too!!"

"Welcome to Joshanka. It's a town where the wind is cold, but the people are warm. Take it easy. Welcome to Joshanka. It's a town where the wind is cold, but the people's hearts are warm." Take it easy. Welcome to Joshanka. It's a town where 'the wind is cold, but the hearts are warm.' Take it easy...'

Yoza is whining about something, but I ignore it.

Chant this catchphrase for travelers who visit the town.

This is part of public relations activities aimed at revitalizing the town, and is a rule established by ordinance several years ago.

This tagline is the same as the scripture for the guards.

We cannot take it lightly.

(Yoza...you don't have enough experience to play this important role...!)

"Senpai! ..Hey there! Don't get in the way!"

(This is an ordeal, Yoza! Show me how you've overcome this ordeal and turned your back on as a guard...!)

While making excuses in his mind, Sidelock had no intention of handing over the slogan.

Honestly, I'm old now.

I can't move lightly like Yoza.

His back hurts.

It can't be helped.

Yoza, do your best.

"Haa~~......I'm tired~~......"

At noon, the comings and goings of people calm down for the time being.

Siderock and Yoza were taking a break at the guardhouse.

Yoza sloppily slumped over the desk and took a nap.

As for Siderock, he was reading the report while picking his nose.

He makes a quick check to see if there are any dangerous people in the town and who should be marked.

Don Don!

And there was a powerful knocking sound.

Residents of the town of Yoshanka, where the sea wind is strong, knock on the door to beat the sound.
