Chapter 4 Explorer and Soju Inn

At this time, it was already dark, and I don’t know what time it was.

Because there is no watch and clock, Iveta is completely unsure of what time it is now.

However, most people in this era cannot accurately distinguish the time. They can only judge from the sun that it is morning, afternoon, evening and evening.

Iveta glanced at the old witch and found that this guy was indeed very old, but he didn't expect that a person could live so old.

He is over 200 years old, but he is still able to jump around and be ambitious.

Now, he wants to learn magic even more.

The three people walked through the forest. They found a four-story wooden house with lights in the jungle. There was a sign hanging on the roof crookedly.

【Sauce Inn】

When the black wolf witch hunter saw the light, he habitually drew out the sword, but when he saw it was an inn, he showed a relaxed expression.

"Huh, I can finally take a rest."

The old witch's eyes also showed light. "Crown, we can perform the ceremony there."

“It’s relatively safe.”

After all, she always wanted to confirm Iveta's identity.

The witch is suspicious and cruel.

Iveta asked strangely: "Why do people open a tavern in a jungle instead of on both sides of the avenue?"

"If this happens, won't you avoid most of the guests?"

The black wolf witch hunter used the back of his sword to split the thorn bushes blocking the way. "Your Highness, you speak so cutely. It seems like you have never gone out and have no understanding of this world."

The old witch on the side stiffened a little, and she looked at Iveta with fear.

Black Wolf said: "That's because the owner of this kind of tavern wants to avoid most ordinary people."

“This kind of tavern is for adventurers.”

"The land in the kingdom is limited, and there is only so much land that can be enfeoffed, so many nobles and big capitalists' sons will become adventurers in order to seek opportunities and go to various regions to become mercenaries and robbers."

"As time goes by, a full set of facilities will appear to provide services to these adventurers."

"This kind of tavern that is deep in the forest and far away from normal avenues is one of them."

Iveta nodded in a vague way. According to the original owner's memory, the mobs and guards who usurped their kingdom seemed to have hired many adventurers.

These adventurers are like robbers running around this black forest. Wherever they pass, they will definitely not leave a prosperous town.

In fact, the reason why many towns maintain a professional patrol is to guard against these adventurers who are running around.

I remember that in the Middle Ages in my original world, there were many examples of adventurers running around to seize territory, or even kingdoms.

The most famous ones should be the Normans of the Principality of Normandy and the Seven Kingdoms of England, as well as the King of Sicily and the Otville family of the Principality of Antioch.

Then the adventurers in this world are probably such a group of dangerous people.

The three of them knocked on the door of the inn, and an old man with a hunched back and covering his face with a black hood opened the door. He glanced at the person who came, "How many rooms do you want?"

“Do you need food?”

The witch hunter Black Wolf said ripely: "Give me a plate of wind-stewed beef, I will add more rosemary and thyme, and add a slice of lemon and wine to taste."

"Give me another glass of the cheapest wine."

"Give us three rooms and stay for one night."

The hunchbacked man saw that the old witch and Iveta had no intention of ordering something, and said, "Three beds, 6pence, three separate rooms are 3pence, and three cabinets are 3pence."

"3p hot water for bathing and drinking water."

"Feed the cattle, 2pence."

“There are some dishes, totaling 4p.”

“It’s 21p in total!”

The hunchbacked old man paused and said, "Of course, you can choose to pay 1 shilling and 9p."

The witch hunter Black Wolf said speechlessly: "Why did we rent three rooms and pay for the bed, cabinet and hot water in the room separately?"

The hunchbacked old man's tone did not change at all, just like a robot saying: "This is the rule of our shop. You can also choose not to buy it, and then sleep outside on a biting cold night."

The Black Wolf of the Demon Hunter rolled his eyes. "The cost of every time I maintain my armor is about this price."

“The price of the store is really too expensive.”

The hunchbacked old man looked like he was inactive, and there were still customers inside the inn.

Iveta said to the hunchbacked old man, "Sir, since this is the case, we will not have beds and cabinets in the room we booked."

"Can you ask someone to move the bed and cabinet out of our room?"

“We don’t need bed and cabinet service, nor do we need hot water.”

The hunchbacked old man was stunned for a moment. "This..."

The guests who were making excitement in the tavern did not make any noise because they never thought that someone could be so stingy.

The hunchbacked old man frowned. "Can this be possible?"

Iveta nodded for granted and said, "Well, first of all, all three of us hate hot water, beds and cabinets."

“It would be detrimental to our interests if we provide such services.”

The hunchbacked old man seemed to be thinking, but someone later said, "Okay, I agree."

"Camel, go and help the guests lead the cattle into the stable and put some ordinary quality feed."

"Come in, guests."

"In this case, you only need to pay 9p."

The person who spoke should be the boss of the inn. He had a scar running through half of his face, and his expression was fierce.

He stood behind the wooden bar, poured three glasses of wine, and asked a human beauty in a bikini and rabbit ears to bring the drinks over.

"This is a gift I gave to three of you, free."

"Please have a wonderful evening in our store."

"Duser, you take three guests to the guest room."

The black wolf took the wine he brought over and drank it all in one go. It was useless to drink it.

He took out the money from his pocket, handed it to the beautiful waitress, and said to Iveta: "Your Highness, this account must be remembered on your head, and I will pay it for you first."

"In addition, you have to pay me the bill of the weapons I lost in the battle I had protected you in the past."

"But congratulations, I saved myself 12p just now."

Iveta was ashamed, forget it, if you owe you money, you owe you money.

There is a saying that as long as you owe enough money, you are the other person's God.

If he dies, the Black Wolf will never get the money that belongs to him.

When passing by the wooden bar, Iveta said thank you to the boss behind the bar, and the boss also gave a gift.

The adventurers in the inn looked at the boss in surprise.

After Ivita and the others went up, the guests raised their wine glasses and asked the owner of the inn.

"Relly, this is not your style of doing things. You never allowed this kind of behavior before!"

"There are no beauties among them, what's wrong with you? Drunk?"

"Did the black-hearted Rayley want to change the nickname? Change it to the fool Rayley? Hahaha..."

Rayleigh looked at them indifferently. "Go to drink your drink, you have no vision."

"The three people who just entered here, let's not talk about that young child for now, both of them around him have great backgrounds."

"That black-haired witch hunter is the famous witch hunter Black Wolf. It is said that he had killed all his companions at one time because of uneven sharing of spoils with his accomplices."

"That old woman, according to my observation, should be the great witch in Hearthstone."

"I have no life to provoke these people."

The drinkers were all shocked.

Even some people's wine glasses fell on the ground without notice.

The man murmured to himself, looking terrified. "The witch of Hearthstone, her reputation is not good, and I don't know how many people died at her hands."

"I...we... were so close to her just now."

A strong man beside him snorted and looked at him. "You are so brave, why are you still an adventurer? But I didn't expect that we were so close to these two big men."
