For the first time, I got permission to go outside the city. and meet the other beastmen.
Of course, it meant that I would be escorted by Leo and Lily.
As we were going outside the outer walls of the territory capital, Jane my mother gave me a child's leather armor, a robe, and a short sword as a weapon.
I wore the equipment I was given in my room.
'Young master Fukiba, you look very nice.' (Cicily)
It's Cicily, the cute maid, who is always ready to compliment me.
Right.....Young master Fukiba! It's your first time outside, and it can be dangerous even around the outer walls, so please be very careful.
Yeah, I know. I know. I'll be careful, because if I get hurt, they're not going to let me out and grounded me, so I'll be careful.
I got my gear together and went outside.
My mother, Jane, and my Big brother, Gin, were waiting for me.
'Fukiba, you look great. Even though you are practicing your magic, there are still magical beasts out there. Be careful.
Young master Fukiba, tell me a story about when you were out there!
'Mother, I'll be off then. I'll be back by evening.
"Yes, Be careful and don't be hurt.
I follow my teacher Leo and Teacher Lily on foot.
Passing through the gate of the grounds, the two of them took me to walk through the territory capital.
The main street was paved with cobblestones and there were many stalls that looked like stalls.
The people outside were bustling and I could tell that this city was growing. I was convinced that my father was a supremely decent lord, but I was scurrying around, looking around at all the new things.
"If you keep acting like that people will think that you're from the countryside. since your parents are the lords and you might inherit the land so you shouldn't act so surprised"
No, even though he's the son of a lord, he's the Second son. And I plan to be an adventurer when I grow up.
''You're only five years old, but there's something unchildlike about you. At that age, if my parents were lords, I can only imagine them being more pushy.
'I was educated by my parents that they were Margrave (Aristocrat) because of their lordship. The tax revenue goes up because of the prosperity of the fiefs. That's how we're fed.
"The lord here is well known in the guild because of his good government. We moved here from other cities. It's safe, and the forest is nearby, so we get a lot of requests for guilds.
Yeah. It's a great place to live. Great food.
They both seem to think this city is good for them. That means your father's policies are working.
I walk away, satisfied.
'Oh, if we're going out to the outer walls, can we stop by the guild once? Maybe there might be some information about the outside world.
I want to go to the guild!
Fukiba eyes light up and he answers immediately.
He walks through the city and sees a sign with a double sword crossed over a shield. It's a large building in its own right.
He opens the door and enters.
There is a receptionist at the front, and on the right, a form that appears to be a request is posted on a bulletin board.
On the left, there is a waiting area and a place that looks like a restaurant.
Even though it was still morning, some adventurers were already drinking.
The three of us continued on to the reception desk.
[Fukiba, can I ask you a few questions?]
The dog-eared beast of a receptionist looks up and answers with a smile.
'Oh my goodness, it's not Leo. What's up with you today?
I thought we'd do some training outside the outer walls, to see if there were any hexenbiests out there.
'Then there's nothing new to tell you, except that there's a horn-rabbit and the occasional wolf.
But still, you've got a lovely little one with you today. Who is he? Have you taken an apprentice?
Leo walks up to the receptionist, Ellen, and speaks in a whisper.
'I have a request now, my lord's son. I'm going to go out now to train him in the outside.'
Ellen hurriedly stood up and bowed to Fukiba.
He's a child dressed as an adventurer, he didn't expect it to be his lord's Jake child.
''Oh, my apologies for this. I didn't know you were your son, I am a receptionist in the Adventurer's Guild, my name is Ellen.''
'My name is Fukiba Hanes Shino. I'm only five years old and can't register as an adventurer yet, but I plan to become an adventurer when I turn ten. I hope you'll take care of me then.
'Oh, you're so polite. Feel free to call me Ellen.
Well, I'm off.
Leo and the others headed straight for the exit of the guild.
They were approached by one of the unpolished adventurers who was drinking in the dining area.
''Hey! Hey, isn't that Leo? What's up with that kid? Let's have a drink together, not babysitting.
Yeah, yeah. Why don't you just leave the kid alone and have a drink over here? You can keep going with me for the night. I'll satisfy you by my hands.
Leo and Lily both look at each other in disgust.
"We are in the middle of a commission, if you want a drinker, you should go to a whorehouse (brothel).
She returned the words with a disinterested look.
As we were about to leave, a man grabbed Lily arm.
"Can't you listen to us?
I'm not letting you go.
Leo says."
'Oh? Do you have a problem with a C-rated Master? You guys are a class D, right? All you have to do is listen to your superiors and pour with them!
It's like a temptress! Fukiba couldn't help but feel woozy.
But he can't go out like this for any length of time.
''I'm sorry. I'm going to leave with you now, can you let go my teacher??
Fukiba quickly steps forward and slaps the arm of the man holding Lily.
He has the blessing of a warrior god and also has physical skills. It's a power that doesn't seem very five years old.
It's a good idea. You're a little puny kid. What do you think you're doing? You're not allowed. I'll teach you a lesson!
Cross was struck on the arm and struck at Fukiba.
Cain used his body art to sidestep a step on the verge. As it is, he gets into his opponent's pocket and kicks him on the inside of the knee.
'I will never forgive this kid!
Dieeeee!
Tht adventurer he pulled his sword from its scabbard and cut at it.
''Oh no! !!!!'' he pulled his swords!!
Leo yells out, but maybe it's because she's been drinking and her sword muscles aren't great and she avoids it easily.
She pulls out her shortsword, which is still in its scabbard, and strikes her opponent in the jaw with the scabbard.
The opponent turns white and falls straight down.
All around us are stunned, although drunk, that a C-class adventurer has been knocked down by a five-year-old.
'What are you doing!!!!'
Suddenly there was a loud shout and everyone there turned towards the voice.
There stood a man in his thirstiest or so with a bald head who was completely different from the fallen adventurers.
''Guildmaster!''
Ellen, the receptionist, spoke up.
'It's Ellen, what's going on? Explain.
Ellen explained what had been going on.
'I see, carry the one lying there for now. I'll give him a little workout later.
Then he turned to me and grinned.
''Second son of a lord Jake, or if you're going to be an adventurer in the future, you're welcome. If you're that strong at the age of five, you might even make it to the S rank or higher!.
He patted Fukiba head, then laughed and withdrew to the back of the room.
'I'm sorry, Young master Fukiba. My Jackson has always been like that.''
Apologetically, Ellen, the receptionist, bows her head.
''It's fine, It's fine' It's nice to be a friendly guild master. And I'm not injured. Besides, I wanted to get out of the house as soon as possible.''
Young master Fukiba. Thank you.
Lily kneels down and hugs him.
She was surprised to be hugged and smelled a bit nice, which made Fukiba grimace.
She was a bit slender, just an high elf, and her breasts were a bit lacking in volume, which was a shame.
'We're done talking, let's go outside for now.
After leaving the guild, the three of us walked towards the gate.
''And by the way, Fukiba, you can use swords and magic, but you can also do physical arts.
Fukiba. Strong.
Yeah... and I practiced at my home with a book and my brother teach me his knowledge about magic..
''A C-ranked adventurer won't be easily defeated just by reading and training even your brother teach you, your body is weak. Just be careful because you don't know what you'll find when you go out there.
Yes teacher Leo, I understand.
I'll protect you, Fukiba. Don't worry.
Lily is going to protect you. Unlike Leo, she doesn't say too many unnecessary things, but she's kind.
'Thank you, Lily!
I return the smile.
We walked through the gate as we talked. There was a gatekeeper, but Leo was there to talk to me.
As expected, I wouldn't be able to stop the lord's Jake son, and it can't be helped.
Even so, it was only the gate of the territorial capital, and it was quite large. The outer wall also continued about seven meters high.
Finally, we were able to get out.
Once we passed through the gate, the streets were straightened out and the grasslands were spread out.
It's been five years since I was born, and two years since I became self-conscious, but this is my first adventure and hunt the monster.
Fukiba couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat and excitement on his face.
