A Look About the Inn

Our inn, [Dancing Dolls Pavilion]. The base I built at the dungeons surface layer.

Its an inn I made myself through the use of [Create Golem]. So that I could move it through the menus [Deployment], I made it a subdivision of a floor.

Recently Ive been living in the Village Chiefs residence, which I annexed on to it.

[Welco ah, Master.]

Ah, Neru, youre on duty?

A doll I picked up in the dungeon that had awareness using that as the pretext, it was actually a golem I made to look like a humanoid figurine that the insubstantial ring succubus Neru is possessing. She was sitting at the reception counter.

Id originally established that clay golems were helping us, so her existence here was fully accepted with a simple Well, it is [Dancing Dolls Pavilion] were talking about!

Please continue being our inns patrons!

Well, theres so many golems here anyway People probably dont care too much about seeing a single extra doll.

[Yeah, its to the point that people want to shake my hands.]

Neru, did you turn into a tourist attraction?

I headed past the reception desk and into where the dining hall and guest rooms were. There wasnt much to say about the guest rooms. They were just fifty copper a night, no meals. They had a futon and a light magic tool in it.

And as for the dining hall well, it was a dining hall. It used a food ticket system to serve guests their food. The food itself used to be stuff we bought with DP, but nowadays we have Kinue-san cooking practically all of it.

The midday rush is over so its mostly empty now. Todays waitresses areright, the two part-timers, Setsuna and Nayuta.

I knew that the two of them were dungeon-related individuals, but they didnt know that we had anything to do with the dungeon at all (with the exception of Nerunes coming out about it). Lets have a conversation with them.

Ah, Village Chief. Hungry?

Hmm? Yeah, a bit.

Goshujin-sama, Goshujin-sama, me too~

Ichika popped up and begged like a starved racehorse when I responded to Setsuna. Alright already, you can back off, Ill order you some too rather, arent our employees supposed to be given meals?

With that, we ate some simple sandwiches.

By the way, Kinue-san learned the unique skill called [Cooking], a great skill for a silkythat is, for a house fairy that loves house chores.

Oooh! Kinue-san, you got even better. Arent you more skilled than the Sia lords cook at this point?

Now that Ive filled my belly, lets take a look at the rest of our inns facilitiesthe onsen and the game room, I guess?

The onsen should be alright other than the massage chair golem I have there, its pretty much just a standard onsen. Theres no culture for bathing in the nude here though, so wearing a bath towels become the defaultah, but I think there was talk about occasionally entering nude? Its fine either way, honestly.

By the way, Goshujin-sama. Do we have pocket money to spend for uhh testin the game room?

Obviously not.

Sorry Ichika, but no.

We entered the game room.

The game room now has two tables to enjoy yourself on with things like poker and dice, as well as two varieties of rat races. The slots are all over at the bar now, just being able to earn money from them through the rental fee alone is good.

Ooookay! Times almost up to place your bets oh, Master.

Rei? You had a shift here today?

Yes. Ah, will you place a bet?

When I took a glance to check out the runnersthe ratsour eyes met.

Translation Function ACTIVATE!

Allow me to explain. This translation function I acquired upon coming to this other world allows me to understand even a rat if I activate it consciously!

[Hooray! Masters here! Now I can win!]

[Hey now, who said youre gonna win? Only one of us can, Deppa.]

[But isnt it better for the one Master puts down on to win? Definitely would make him happy.]

[No, hold it. Shouldnt we go as always? I mean]

[Nn? In that case, Faito is next up to win, yeah?]

[Wait up. Wouldnt it be bad for the one Master bets on if they lose? Have to reject that.]

[Faito, did you happen to forget that you were meant to be first?]

[N-no way, definitely not I am wise!]

Yep, the rats seem well today. Lets not place a bet.

Im thinking about playing some dice today.

[[[[[Eeh]]]] ho]

Whoops, Translation Function cancelthere we go.

I then tried moving over to the suitable table ah, looks like theres a guy on a winning streak here. He looks well dressed, probably not someone from this village alright, time to take away his stuff.

Mind if I join?

Nn? Sure, I accept anyones money!

How motivated you are. Sorry, but those dice are my golems.

*

Phew, this guy was crazy lucky. He never rolled below a three. Maybe he has the [Luck] skill?

No way I lost? What cheat did you use!?

Come on, theres no need to accuse me like that.

Shut up! Theres no way I lost, you absolutely cheated! Im not going to pay a copper!

Woah, an annoying person.

Ah, youre not a resident here are you? Did you know this, then? In this village, cheating is allowed so long as you dont get caught. Those who shirk their debts are treated the same as thieves. In other words, if you say that you wont pay, its fine to treat you as a slave and take your possessions. You can check with the Village Chief on it if you want.

When I said that, one of the villager-adventurers closed the entrance. Nice one. Ill give you a pudding later.

Haah? You think Id f*ckin let you make me a slave? Dont make me laugh, Im a B-Rank adventurera noble!

Yeah, I dont care. Are you going to pay up or notare you a thief?

Im not a thief! Rather, Ill have you executed for going against the crown! Ill forgive you right now if you give me your woman, hows that sound?

Ahh, so hes bluffing.

Rather, isnt it even worse for a B-Rank to be a thief like that? Honestly, only the ridiculous S-Rank heroes can do as they please, and even those get purged by Haku-san if theyre too outrageous.

The Adventurer Guild is strict with its members that commit crimes.

While on the subject, its a heavy crime to impersonate as a noble.

And above all, starting a fight against me or anything thats mine is an auto out.

Right, so youre saying that you dont intend to pay?

Obviously, you f*cking cheat!

The self-proclaimed B-Rank adventurer pulled out his sword and stabbed it into the table.

Oh, Im going to have you pay me that back too.

Yeah. Ill give a pudding to whoever deals with this guy.

Hyahaah! I was waiting for that!

The puddings mine! Practically been bouncin outa my shoes waitin here!

Ill have this shit give me back some of the money I lost!

Whaheywai-!

Hearing my order, adventurers popped up and attacked him all at once, capturing him in just a few seconds.

Ah, you third guy youll be a thief if you actually do that. Even if he cheated, its valid if you cant figure out why.

By the way, Ichika participated even though his capture was already guaranteed. Guess she wanted some pudding, too?
