The two people and the cat followed Natsuki Subaru closely, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him talking to passers-by in a friendly and natural manner.
Fortunately, this guy is not as unreliable as I imagined.
"Hmm? Have there been any strange people coming in recently? Aren't you one of them?"
"Abnormal flashes at night? There are a lot of those in the capital, how could we have them here?"
"A famous thief girl? I know that, but I don't think that girl would target a poor man like you..."
Natsuki Subaru looked down at the sportswear he was wearing and said nothing.
After some inquiries, Natsuki Subaru did not find any clues about the beautiful girl who summoned him. Instead, with the guidance of passers-by, they found the whereabouts of the thief girl.
The stolen goods vault.
Chapter 17 The Giant's Old Man
The so-called stolen goods warehouse refers to the place where thieves sell stolen goods.
In the slums, the thing that is most lacking is thieves and burglars.
After all, this is the easiest profession to make money for those who have nothing.
As for whether you will be caught during the stealing process, it all depends on your personal strength and luck.
After some inquiries by Natsuki Subaru, Asuna and the others also learned the name of the girl from the local residents - Firut.
Firut is also a thief who came from the slums.
Moreover, judging from her previous performance in teaching the thugs a lesson and escaping from the alley, she should be considered an extremely rare thief.
However, although her ability is very good, she is still too young for her age.
Many things can only be solved more easily with the intervention of adults.
It's like selling stolen goods.
After all, those stolen or robbed things are all stolen goods. If you sell them outside without thinking, it is only a matter of time before you get caught.
Therefore, some shameful stolen goods must be sold at special locations to avoid being caught and followed by the city guards, which would ultimately lead to losses.
A stolen goods warehouse is a place where stolen goods obtained by thieves are hidden and sold.
For thieves and robbers like Firut, the importance of the stolen goods vault is very great.
Moreover, they also visited Firut's home in the slums under the guidance of nearby residents.
It was just a simple tent made of rags, branches and wooden boards.
Although it can be used as a habitable place, it does not provide shelter from wind and rain.
And when they went there, there was no sign of Firut at all.
In addition, she had just taken away something extremely important to Emilia not long ago, so it was very likely that it was still in the stolen goods warehouse.
So, under the watchful eyes of the residents of the slums, Asuna and her group arrived at the deepest part of the slums.
……
……
What appeared before their eyes was a bungalow that looked like a collective residence.
It is backed by a tall city wall, which is covered with moss and vines, and looks to have been there for quite a long time.
“It’s completely different from the houses around here.”
Natsuki Subaru crossed his arms over his chest and looked at the seemingly old but very tidy and complete stolen goods warehouse in front of him, silently comparing it with the houses he had seen on the road.
“Is the girl named Felt here?”
Emilia's expression also became serious at this moment.
She stopped talking to Asuna, her crimson eyes sparkling, as if a serious teacher saw a student who had made a mistake, ready to teach Firut a lesson, and she raised her foot to walk forward.
"Wait a minute, Emilia." Asuna, who was standing beside her, suddenly raised her hand and pressed Emilia's shoulder, forcing her to stop.
Emilia was slightly startled, turned her head, and looked at Asuna with a puzzled look.
"No need to go in, someone has already come out."
"Eh?"
Just as Asuna finished her words, Natsuki Subaru, who was not far from the door of the stolen goods warehouse, suddenly exclaimed and hurried back.
"What heavy footsteps!"
The door of the stolen goods warehouse was suddenly opened, and a huge figure slowly walked out.
He was a bald old man wearing slightly shabby clothes, with a huge body and obviously exercising.
The old man was at least two meters tall, taller than the top of the door to the stolen goods warehouse, so he had to lower his head deliberately when he came out.
Natsuki Subaru subconsciously cast his gaze on the old man's huge palm.
The image of a strong basketball player drinking a bottle of mineral water as oral liquid instantly emerged in my mind.
And this old man’s palm is almost as big as a human head!
It was also much larger than the palm of the basketball player in Natsuki Subaru's mind.
"Wow!" he exclaimed subconsciously.
Not only him, but even Emilia's delicate face showed a hint of surprise after seeing the old man.
Looking at such a giant, it’s no wonder that Natsuki Subaru suddenly cried out.
Parker, who was lying on Emilia's shoulder, looked up at the other person and said with understanding, "It seems that he is from the giant tribe."
After hearing this, Asuna also nodded.
In this world, even sub-humans can live freely in the human world, so the existence of giants is not surprising.
"Does this world even have giants?"
The corners of Natsuki Subaru's eyes twitched slightly, as if he had thought of something, and then he said with some hesitation: "Could it be that the beautiful girl who summoned me is not a human, but a creature like the giants?
Although the beast-eared girl seems pretty good... but if she is a giant... she is still too big..."
Natsuki Subaru's words caused everyone present to fall into an eerie silence.
Asuna silently moved her feet and moved to the side, so as not to be mistaken for being in the same group as Natsuki Subaru.
And under Parker's guidance, Emilia stayed away from the strange guy who "spoke wildly".
Sure enough, this guy is very abnormal!
The old giant stroked his chin, looked at Natsuki Subaru, and then shook his head, "I don't care about beast-eared girls or anything like that.
But the girls from our giant tribe won’t be attracted to a skinny guy like you.”
The old man's voice was loud and clear, without a trace of weakness or fatigue.
Natsuki Subaru was just about to say that he had also been training for a long time!
But after comparing the muscle mass of the two men, he consciously swallowed the words back.
He smiled awkwardly, "I think so too."
With the giants’ size…even if he really did meet a beautiful girl, he probably wouldn’t be able to handle it.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Seeing that Natsuki Subaru stopped talking, the old giant narrowed his eyes, and his gaze passed over Natsuki Subaru, looking at Asuna and Emilia who were already some distance away from Natsuki Subaru.
Then, he seemed to be thinking about something, his eyes moved away from Emilia and lingered on Asuna and Natsuki Subaru.
“You’re the one wearing strange clothes, pretending to be weak but using your companion’s strength to scare Felt. That’s you, right?”
The old man spoke in an affirmative tone to Natsuki Subaru, whose forehead was already covered with sweat.
Then, he said to Emilia: "As for you, the elven warlock with an elf following you, you should be the young lady that Firut mentioned who is easy to get."
Emilia's delicate eyebrows raised, and Parker flew up while trying hard to suppress his laughter.
A young lady who is easy to get?
It really fits the description of Leah!
But... in a sense, it seems a bit infuriating!
My Leah won't be taken away easily!
Chapter 18: Prepare the ransom and come back?
Parker, who is obsessed with his daughter, glared at the giant old man in front of him with dissatisfaction. However, with his current appearance, he did not have any deterrent power at all. Instead, he looked very cute.
Parker obviously didn't realize this.
"So... so cute!" Natsuki Subaru's eyes lit up involuntarily, and he wanted to reach out and pet the cat, but his body just stood there honestly.
It’s too early, too early!
He warned himself in his heart.
The moment the giant old man appeared in front of him, Natsuki Subaru's impression of this world was deepened once again.
Especially the terrifying aura of the other party. Well, Natsuki Subaru admitted that he was indeed scared at the beginning.
After all, before this, he was just an ordinary human with a grip strength of only 70 kilograms. Although he traveled to a different world inexplicably, according to convention, he would definitely rise rapidly like those protagonists, but now he is still just an ordinary human!
Looking at the other person's fist which was as big as his head, Natsuki Subaru nodded very sincerely.
Since we are human beings, we must have the consciousness that belongs to human beings!
He said that his side was not weak either, with a mysterious beautiful girl and a great elf, as well as Asuna who was also a time traveler.
However, I have not yet found the beautiful girl who summoned me to another world! I have not yet officially embarked on the extraordinary road that only exists in legends and dreams!
Therefore, before you become stronger, just follow your heart for a while.
Although Parker is indeed very cute now, making people want to hold him in their arms and caress him, but...
"As expected, I should wait until it is in a good mood before asking for its consent."
Natsuki Subaru thought so in his heart.
Parker is no effeminate pet.
But he is a powerful elf!
Although Natsuki Subaru, who had just arrived, had no idea about the existence of the great elves, looking at Parker's performance at this time and the expression on Emilia's face, it was obvious that Parker's strength was not weaker than the old giant in front of him.
'really!
I knew I would become the protagonist of another world!
Most of the main characters have been gathered at the very beginning!
But where is the beautiful girl who summoned me? And what kind of power can I gain...'
Natsuki Subaru, who was lost in his reverie, had a solemn expression on his face, which made the old giant look puzzled.
He pointed to his head and asked doubtfully:
“Who is this guy…?”
He was obviously very nervous before, why did he suddenly become so serious?
And nod from time to time, saying some inexplicable words from your heart?
No decent person would speak his or her true feelings in public.
This kid... is there something wrong with his brain? !
But after thinking about it, the old giant felt that his idea was quite reasonable.
After all, if the young man in front of him didn't have a problem with his brain, he wouldn't have made Firut so angry that he would come back to complain to him.
Asuna was no longer surprised. Instead of helping Natsuki Subaru to explain, she nodded in agreement, expressing her agreement with the old giant's idea.
Seeing this, Parker spun his tail in the air for a few circles, and then slowly landed on Emilia's head.
"Parker." Emilia pouted in dissatisfaction. After all, this would lose her dignity in the eyes of others.
