The next morning, we headed to the carriage station to catch a carriage bound for the Western Margravate.
“Sue, do you think that trio will be going to the Western Margrave’s territory too?”
“Most likely. This barony is where roads from various regions converge, so the road from the capital to the Western Margravate passes through here.”
The male adventurer leader was a human supremacist, so it was almost certain that trouble would follow him into the Western Margravate.
After all, the region was home to many beastman, and he had already caused problems here in this barony. I couldn’t understand why anyone like that would deliberately head into a territory where most beastman are, but one thing was clear: he’s a person to watch closely.
As I’m thinking that, the carriage station grew noisy. Sue and I exchanged a glance before moving toward the commotion.
“Hey! Don’t you have a carriage for humans only?!”
“There’s no such thing! What are you even saying?!”
“You’ve got to be joking! I’m from the earl’s family!”
At the carriage station, just as I had expected, the male adventurer was yelling loudly at the coachman.
First thing in the morning, and already such a huge nuisance.
To make matters worse, it was the very carriage we wanted to take—definitely more trouble than we needed. The two female adventurers were desperately trying to restrain him.
Well, I guess I’d better offer a little advice.
“If you’re nobles, wouldn’t it be simpler to hire the entire carriage for yourselves and head straight to the Western Margravate?”
“Oh! That’s an idea. I’ve got the money—can we really hire it privately?”
“That is certainly possible.”
I spoke from within the crowd without showing my face, and it seemed both the male adventurer and the coachman accepted the suggestion.
Though apparently, the women accompanying him would be the one paying for it.
Just how much of a scumbag is that guy?
Watching the carriage pull away, I couldn’t help but let out a long, exasperated sigh.
“Sue, we should probably head to the Adventurers’ Guild early and share this information.”
“Mm, you’re right. And if possible, it might be wise to inform the lord of the Western Margravate as well.”
“Right. Ugh, what a troublesome person…”
“Indeed… sigh.”
Sue and I couldn’t help but let out long, exasperated sighs.
Luckily, with the Harvest Festival approaching, there are special carriages going to the Western Margravate, so we’ll be able to depart in about thirty minutes. We joined the queue for the carriage.
“That guy gives off a really bad vibe.”
“Fran feels it too.”
“Horn as well.”
Shiro and the others seemed to sense something off about the male adventurer. Since Shiro and the others are beastman, I need to be careful not to let anything happen to them.
“If he tries to do something, Shiro will knock him out!”Cough. Correction, I need to make sure Shiro and the others don’t do anything reckless.
