Chapter 12 - Town of Barut

Located at the southernmost part of Beria kingdom, Also known as Port town of Barut, Despite being a port town that could handle merchant trading ships, The port town hasn't been developed since the recent lord took his father's position.

The last lord was described as a tyrant taking 90% of the fishermen's harvest from fishing, and raising the tax at an impossible rate, causing the residents to immigrate to the other lands.

However, his 4th son was not like the others, being the fourth and the youngest, he has little to no chance at being the next lord, thinking that he went to the royal academy and studied, he discovered the potential of port town and went for it, and finally he succeeded and now the people of the town has a smile on their face again

"How, ridiculous" Akio thought as he read a stone tablet at the town square

All this time they didn't developed the port? how can they be this dumb, by using the port you own as it's lord, you can export and import things overseas. Moreover, as the lord who govern this town, no one will stop you if you import and export Illegal things and you can have all the profit you want

『Unless the capital caught you, you will be executed』

Advisor said as if reading his mind

"You really can't read my mind right?"

『Of course not, Everyone will say that if they see your evil grin』

'Am I really that easy to read?' Akio thought

"Anyway, this robe really is inconvenient"

It limits your eyesight and it's hot inside too because it was made from leather

Akio don't know why but before entering the town, Greg insisted that he wears this saying things like 'You have memory loss right? what if your a wanted person before losing your memories?' Though he has a point, akio thought that he would never be a wanted person because he wasn't originally from this world

And after entering, Greg immediately rented an inn and left Akio inside

"I'll just sell my merchandise alright? stay here" Greg said before he left

Of course Akio wouldn't stay in, he has business to do in this town too

With the mithril sword and broken armor he left the inn and wandered around the town

"Now where should I go now"

Akio said as turn around from the stone tablet and started to walk around

『Are you finding the adventurers guild? There's one just–』

It looks like Advisor's Aesthetic is now officially gone, or maybe she just forgot again

"No, I'm finding something else"

『What is it then?』

"The black market" Akio said in the middle of the back alley

All the thug looking guys that was loitering around looked at him

"Where is it?"
