Book 21: Chapter 1 (10)
After breakfast, everyone was free to go on their own.
Shin, Filma, and Milt were the three participants in the “Wrought Iron Battle Festival”. Only Shin was in the blacksmithing competition. Milt was also participating in the battle festival as part of her training.
Schnee, Tiera, and Sety went shopping. The merchants had gathered, so they went for a stroll to see if there was anything unusual. Yuzuha and Kagerou were with them.
Shibaid was looking at the weapons. He seemed interested in the masterpieces forged by past winners in the blacksmithing competition.
“Then, if there’s anything you need to contact me about, use 【Mind Chat】. I think I’ll be back by night, but this is my first Wrought Iron Festival, so I might have to stay overnight.”
Overnight work was not an impossible proposition. Filma and Milt, who would be at the martial arts festival, should not have such a time-consuming match, so Shin informed them that if anyone could not return, it would be him.
“Shall we go then?”
The innkeeper told them that the reception desk for the Wrought Iron Festival was located at the entrance to the arena, so Shin, Filma, and Milt walked down the main street to the reception desk.
Many stalls were set up on the main street, which was filled with voices calling for customers. There seemed to be some stalls in the back alley as well, but there were very few customers as it clearly had a suspicious atmosphere.
