「看來你準備回歸冒險生活啊。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObu61DuVNI
店員小姐笑著走近了正在擦拭武器的我。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmj9KfZiZZ
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCMyxUQBaC
今天沒有去上城區跑腿。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8JcqRi0w6
一來是因為正在下雨，二來是畢竟剛賺到了一筆錢，不妨給自己放個假。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwecmCUwjEI
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUVb6W54Dw
心血來潮之下，打開了久未整理的倉庫，第一件映入眼簾的事物，是一柄手槍。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaifegvKrXj
當年還是冒險者的時候，我闖進了瑪依瑪依島（マイマイ島）遺跡的武器庫翻箱倒櫃，這柄手槍就是其中一件戰利品。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUGRLQls4o
我從未使用過它。只不過看它外型挺漂亮的，便帶了回家收藏。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCaa9ET70N
它跟我的過去一樣，很快已被人遺忘。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4GlpqSWjy
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8Mb6SdieE
但偶爾，塵封的記憶中也會迸出一絲火星。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnOfJz4TBh
於是我花了一個下午，仔細刮開它表面的鏽跡，試圖找出什麼。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpQIpeZmHi
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAP6QxoEELw
「嚴格來說，這是退休生活的一部分。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ66lnvnnjd
等錢賺夠了，我就會回到屬於我的角落裡。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrfMh75i6T
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oyFSoUBaw
下城區結實不透光的天花板常被居民詬病，可也有一個好處：83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoMa3ZGjoD
不管下多大的雨，下城生活都一如往常。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtyLiK6cxB
雨水打在遠處的木質建築上，發出浠浠瀝瀝的聲音。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4BtgjnTDg
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYB6JxzB0Rg
午後是我最為親切的時間。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBp5sU8lHK
正午的繁囂已過，也還沒有到熱鬧的晚飯時間，咖啡館裡只會有零星幾個客人。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFSntHfEFO
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTClvVBhQN
「您確定你那角落是屬於你的嗎？不久前，你的房東還在碎碎念你何時要繳清租金呢。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4fqf8sOyV
我說，既然你都開始接起委託了，怎麼不加把勁買套房子呢？83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaMNFgLIjM
我知道有人正急著出讓喔。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6mCM5PfwR
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqM8t1NuL5
店員小姐是個喜歡聊天的人。在她那邊，能接收到許多情報。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtexus9DyNz
雖然大多數是經過修飾的。比如，她說正「急著出讓」的房子，至少要比市值貴上一成，或者裡面大部分管道都會不定時冒煙。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpAojEECMO
所以現在就算她說得再動聽，我也只會動動眉毛聊作回應。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBu9DoNCZe
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnSSJ6056m
平時要是還有別人，她應該就會轉去哄騙其他呆子了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFswgW6LUwL
可是沒有。於是她走到吧檯，倒出了一杯淺紅色的果汁，遞到了我的面前。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIF1EGQc4St
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFb4duNncI
「這杯算是我請的吧。當是您回歸冒險生活的賀禮。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrZaXpo7pW
我本想細說退休生活與冒險生活的分別，但想了想，辯這種經也沒意思。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDAdSDxv17
於是我接過玻璃杯，仰頭一飲而盡。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjBdj5y3xd
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQr61PwYaDu
細嚐之下，跟平時喝到的普通果汁有種細微的分別。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQPwDrUjL5
果味新鮮香濃。雖然調配師可能經驗尚淺，尚未能把握協調味覺的精髓；但總體而言算是不錯的。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPCG0rjQdv
一般果汁多是從下城批發商那進的貨，並不難喝，然而喝久了也就這樣。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWu5QaxfSrO
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn45qDcO69
轉頭一望，店員小姐的職業假笑下似乎隱隱有一絲期待。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xaMLMkdyG
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6ZjTJBunU
「妳調的？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiQmlIQaZy
「……是的，怎麼樣？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNfcCArp0U
「生意差到終於進不起貨了嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyUHJXDHz8
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbaUb5siMf
她的表情一下就垮了下來。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWWWGNVsMg
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7Pwt4KFzY
「開個玩笑。還不錯。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5EP2xOpxB
沒有那種甜味劑和合成色素混出來的味道。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaaKNh2YK9
水果是當天現摘的吧？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJIukl7xjJ
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhg2dErNRdE
她點了點頭，笑容這才又回到了鬆垮下來的臉上。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGEyAppsba
至於這是職業還是不職業的笑容，就不得而知了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgqeDZ4psK
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbtY16kP46
「您挺有眼光的嘛。要不要試試本店的高級果汁？83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPntQqx384O
當然，這杯就不是免費的了。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugDaid1mTg
「高級果汁跟普通的有什麼分別？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Xg8rZ4NkR
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxJhvxw2z6
當年還是冒險者時兩種都喝過了不少，但除了價格和顏色之外實在沒有細究兩者的區別。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjtNpTLU0V
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc08gPh4mHs
「一般果汁由我以蘋果，甜橙，萊姆，葡萄等鮮果調整而成。雖然也是上上之選，但比起高級果汁可就黯然失色了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjv0o50pvv
高級果汁從選材開始就絕不馬虎，分別採用了蘋果，甜橙，萊姆，葡萄；並由高級調酒師人手精心調配，堪稱絕品。更激動人心的是，高級果汁的價格僅僅是一般果汁的兩倍！83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrf66j1nCG
鑑於本店的優良傳統，哪怕到了一把銅製萬年筆要價幾千萬G的年代，我們仍堅持絕不加價。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡho41D6Uz1j
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7BsBRZQA5
她邊說邊斟，只見亮藍色的果汁填滿了杯子的一半後便絕不寸進，就如一名守禮的紳士。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDNJ6JFwzF
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBBXPvoC5f
「……那高級調酒師比一般調酒師差在哪？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeknJSYV1hc
「這個嘛，因為本店奉行精簡原則，暫時這兩個職位由一人擔當。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWlhvpvIsa
同時這人也是本店最有人氣的前台店員。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOzFEFIBcs
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmXryoUkRf
看了看四周，咖啡館前台除了她之外空無一人。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0p3NLofvD
我沒好氣地接過了僅有半杯的果汁。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHfrGyIoXw
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4vM1mL4tm
「妳是怎麼想到要兼職調酒師的？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQ1aEIINhW
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXg90VisCc
這個女孩從我搬來下城區起就在這工作了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6pjXGxIko
回想起來，她好像跟誰都能聊得起來，但似乎也沒幾個人跟她走得很近的樣子。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9nAvhCDEG
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxKzxQUUG3
「那你幹嘛要接委託？不還是因為窮嘛。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKaTTt4CLA
我多賺點錢，店主省下那點進貨錢，皆大歡喜不是嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNamqZxn5u
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0BHV3o5yV
店員小姐毫不客氣地說穿了我的經濟狀況。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvFKYh7HN2
不過比起她平時的職業假笑，我還是喜歡現在這種交流方式。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjjXQQjtHA
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXQpl3rMYh
「那，妳存夠了錢之後想要幹嘛？83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgvr5SimjF
跟我一樣青年時就退休嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFF1RFUvj4l
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSpLRz28ST
我看著放在桌上，擦得鋥亮的手槍。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtr0lw98Qe
擦拭多時，冰冷的金屬上多少吸收了一些人體的溫度。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC10wmPjWu
……不論怎麼說，想在這個時候就退休還是不簡單啊。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPYCMiJiEo
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ919ymFlRk2
「……想要把這家咖啡館接下來自己幹。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEop6QLboV
「啥？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrUPJKkcf5
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHXdbBNdAm
她給出了我意料之外的答案。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWseGxwTZY
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rAK0AA2DW
「說是夢想也好，還是事業也好，我想要接手這家咖啡館。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmhOzM6SN4
老闆身體不行了，有意在幾年內回鄉養老。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTpiQ0NKhw
要是那時候我還沒存夠錢買下店面，這家咖啡館就要倒閉了。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdbFPuUws1
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSW8mDNhGn
店員小姐背對著我，望向立在內側店門上的木製招牌。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2faS04N9PB
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hgJJKJsiJ
「非要這家不可嗎？83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKtUH3hzdC
如妳所見，下城區負擔得起下午茶的人可不多。也就只有我這種上流客人了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbCkpUiDA1
真要開店的話，再存點錢開在上城區也許更好喔。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBd0DXpujQ
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxn6AuoJHHE
我呷著僅餘的一點高級果汁，仔細觀察她的反應。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMnBLHwZkt
還是跟先前的普通果汁一樣，除了新鮮和青澀之外嚐不出什麼。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqr83P9jvt
不過，最重要的果然是——83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHP54zyd6L
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTubhFDNjE
「那你怎麼不多存點錢在上城區租房子？83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡey20m3bfly
我就是喜歡這裡，不行嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69D38yLPeu
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmKb6IXUuq
店員小姐冷冷地頂了回來。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWutMKtyYF5
她的理由無關經濟也無關管理，毫無道理可言。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQmjPak8ZR
但，最重要的果然是熱情吧。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzkGSa58T9
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9ka190KkO
反正是買的，大不了當房子住，也不至於沒有客人就會虧欠租金。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21FwLBDaIB
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPMCka8v3i
「那我索性也合伙吧。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpWbWV8rME
我也不想從此少了一個下午休憩的場所。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolAJorPbNQ
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwE8vqoPgP
店員小姐又露出了平時罕見的驚訝表情。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkCQjhLyi1
今天來這咖啡館真的來對了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGLfJFyozL
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JxixLEdN2
「……你哪來的閒錢？不是說連退休生活都要暫緩了嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QVispW8iX
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpfgicm01c
她雖然不太相信，但語氣中帶著一點點期待。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndTiQzm4Sp
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTOw0n7wS3
「有什麼辦法，多接點委託就是了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T0CHBuTwe
妳不也是為了賺那點中介費，不惜推銷那種狗都不要的垃圾房子嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNge0gzPRi
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDVOYcZJsX
之前不明白為什麼她老是在哄騙人買東西，現在總算知道她努力的理由了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5QRR2xJYE
既然如此，那我也來出一分力吧。也免得她又去禍害別人。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknoQLetCYc
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rdsw0Xvuk
「連你也不要，那看來真的是狗都不要了。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTTyc0mjad
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZen9bYVBB
店員小姐嘆了口氣，撕掉了貼在看板的售房告示。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZtbW9aTQO
這話聽起來好像有什麼問題，可我一時又說不出來。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWIXPlNFrd
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uKCn7TQNl
「……既然決定要合夥，那就告訴你我的名字吧。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeteYG9MXBC
我叫澤妮亞（Zennia），要記住喔。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlLtts4DvK

83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X3m8nky2Q
今天的委託是探索無限迴廊中層。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkePCY3LuT
跟衝天塔一樣，無限迴廊也是埃米爾界為了緩解資源短缺問題而修建的人造建築。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q5s33tPFL
但比起成功通往異世界的衝天塔，無限迴廊現在更像是深不見底的大坑，裡面堆滿了魔物。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHwVUE9bUD
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YWPaB4lUE
然而，也不是沒有找到有用的資源。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDK4iImHZp
就如對阿高普路斯主權問題和新世界開發的爭議一樣，四國簽署了君子條約，決定互不干涉。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy3THbrZKh
但這協議君子之餘，還有點粗暴——誰先找到的，就是誰的。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfa976V9Hf
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC591PjTbCN
因此，我接下了摩根市政府的探索委託。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUnajz8fKF
雖然西國在勞工問題上頗遭詬病，但西國人有句話：只要你不是西國人，在西國就是人上人。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25TbJ3Kaf9
他們對外人，比對自己人好多了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5V1bEibUX
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mYOt0L7PN
說來奇怪，本來早前連前往南國的路都覺得難走，現在穿過步伐沙漠卻沒有一點不適。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWxV33oO9e
我攫著一點錢，跟無限迴廊的門衛握了握手。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjzwGquXFd
門衛掂了掂份量，沒有多說什麼，便把我引到了通往中層４１樓的電梯。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9piDaHEyX
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8HJKzKgOF
無限迴廊淺層已經被徹底開發，變成新冒險者的訓練場了，那邊沒法找到什麼有價值的東西。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcjQ7SsJVi
但從４２樓開始就不同了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYAgIbEjIR
我輕易找到了委託者要求的石板，用油布包好，並放進背包的防震夾層。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Zn4RLbMjd
接下來就是我的時間了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7ZfmESfwb
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo07PAqFVFe
中層的魔物多種多樣，但總體跟地表上的差異不大。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCZLxnzmSX
但在這個動物權益保障局管不到的地方，那些野豬野牛可要遭殃了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDDC0jJ1c1
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Z1gOE1gLt
我手槍上膛，獵刀出鞘，四處查看有什麼生物可以加入下城咖啡館的新菜單。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRMMmcSZA1
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyslyxatxy
比如遠處的那頭牛就是一個不錯的目標。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSa5Yj3ajT
牠跟牛牛草原的牛群顯然有血緣關係；但眼神兇狠，動作迅捷，遠勝於牠的同種。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0eGGTByRL
看來無限迴廊的環境不只鍛鍊了冒險者們啊。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv130NclF4d
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEFd4u0zn2
我抬手射擊，子彈出膛，火光準確無誤地打在了魔物的眉心。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBQLIdNqz8
雖然如此，魔物卻只晃了晃，額頭滲血，目光狠狠地盯著尚在冒煙的槍口。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4BhJqv0I3
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6Azv6sj9r
——上次戰鬥已經是多久之前的事了呢？83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoGpu30deg
多年的沉澱使我心靜如水。我彷彿一個第三者，指揮著身體躲閃魔物的猛攻。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsCUCbKm2b
但是槍法和身手明顯衰退了。以前長槍短炮是我四肢的延伸；但現在我甚至記不清彈夾裡還有多少發子彈。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6U5z2pS3K
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuXsjV3UZJ
糾纏良久，魔物渾身是血，而我也被逼到了牆角。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjgQnJQbqq
牠突然後退兩步，並發出震耳欲聾的咆哮。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZFJ0Ep5cG
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnN1BEv7oL
即使在耳鳴之中，我仍清晰地辨認到這是衝鋒的先兆。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCUMqk2VT9
魔物畢竟是魔物，並不會隱藏自己的殺著。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3OH9Xq1yb
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ9TOBQdwX
我微微蹲伏，往側面一退，左臂支地，右手緊持尖刀。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOK3Pyg8y0i
魔物如鐵鎚般砸在了牆上，泥石灰塵滾滾而下。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNSd1HugO5
早已準備就緒的我如同獵犬般搶到身下，一刀就刺進了魔物的喉嚨，順勢一拖，割開了一個大口子。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9ieZ1dcbc
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2msjpScBG
我放開刀柄，著地打滾，以防魔物垂死的掙扎。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWXtcvykQ6
魔物龐大的身軀只扭動了幾下，隨即前肢跪倒，再也起不來了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ikldmwHkl
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnngbLWSC0j
我擦了擦額上的汗，開始驗收戰利品。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFcqZZljEH
牛角是要帶走的，也許能製成酒杯；至不濟也能當成裝飾。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ONRBM7R0E
牛肉只能挑珍貴的部位割下。雖然可惜，但剩下來的肉就便宜了別的魔物了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkusjx9e0GE
牛皮太重了，再說血淋淋的背回下城肯定會被動物權益保障局當成偷獵者看待。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZX4ghc6dt
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6d7S5eEdc
理想十分美好，可我實在不是一個有經驗的獵人。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuGX3MeRGW
除了牛角勉強算是取了下來之外，別的部分被我戳得滿是坑洞，但仍切不下完整的一塊。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKwVaQgw7m
好牛肉都被糟蹋了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lWoBIO7Li
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL69jB5vMPT
眼見血腥氣愈來愈濃，魔物腳步聲愈來愈多，我只得隨意割斷幾塊牛肉，拋下剩下的部分落荒而逃。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqPK4VkTdS

晚上，正在打掃門面的澤妮亞盯著我血淋淋的麻布包問道。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKHZuZZiZL
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DGa0ftoEU
回去下城區並沒有出門時那麼容易。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBc4kMJd9Cf
即使戴上了手套，我還是被魔物的血濺得一身都是；要是堂堂正正通過吊橋的話肯定會被盤問。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EcWR3sD9d
幸好西軍騎士們十分好說話，只要錢給足了，他們絲毫不在意我跟他們一起走騎士團專用通道入城。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVvellZzID

廚房我租下了。租金就用裡面的錢支付吧。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgHlSOdu6g
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlYJvEcfPd
澤妮亞略有點狼狽地接住了我拋出的小袋子。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhlonzjj1z
我也不管她的回應，徑自扛著布袋走進廚房。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGfnwdu3OY
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKurHpJiDCX
雖然我廚藝不精，但我所割下的畢竟是牛肉最為柔嫩的部位，還是可以一吃的吧。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtHbmwI9EK

83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJq0Y1GcMwk
店員小姐在外面大呼小叫。再放任她叫下去的話，也許真會引來混成騎士團吧。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Vqa7yJL9d

「少見多怪。妳上次介紹的任務不也差不多有十四萬G報酬嗎？83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZxqnn3fkd
這點錢有什麼奇怪的。妳以為大家冒著生命危險當冒險者都是因為樂於助人嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OmQspq9DK

「冒險者講究的就是拿得起放得下。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqTJZnjjHX
命還在，錢就還會來。倒是妳趕緊存起來錢買下咖啡館才是正經。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerJkclzntr

牛肉被獵刀戳得稀爛，都沒有高級牛肉的賣相了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0vgXpNeuK
好在只是一頓簡餐，隨便烤出焦香就好。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8JRJ8CumN

「…………那些委託，很危險吧？83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaLy7poNu7
你身上的這些血……」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBf2RpNPEku
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK9sPXfi9o
聽見澤妮亞的聲線略有點顫抖，我只得回過身去。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjC4qs2KwM
當初妳推委託給我的時候可不是這樣說的。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHhnhb4FLz
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcXI4nUjf7
「妳要吃嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBC5BbI9jdu
「哎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAnlNp5oqL
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYC26klZdB
再糾纏於現在的話題也是無濟於事。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbEt08qcj5
倒不如趕緊把心思轉移到別的地方，比如吃飯。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaSafrOucI

牛排做得硬不奇怪，做得生也不奇怪，神奇的是外面硬，裡面生。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52wHFUjeoo
我跟澤妮亞相顧無言，默默吃飯。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSIPEAjqaj
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoNL7W7aBh
「看來我暫時是幹不了駐店廚師這行啦。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUmTsAOdis
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHMBLZz8Bp
我仰頭喝下一口高級果汁（免費），不無感慨。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBEw8nQIH9
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmekh8IhH0r
「……也就是你日後還有此打算嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLiKKHxoZA
她婉轉地表達了她對這頓飯的不滿。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWSuMesJrT
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVMsa1rhIX
「當然了。我可是一直都想把冒險生活遇到的珍奇魔物送到每個下城人的餐桌的。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCcyn9rjlT
飄流水鄉的貝殼，海底洞窟的海龍，好吃的品種多著呢。到時候這家店肯定客似雲來。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwQRTyBALj
不過當年負責野炊的不是我就是了。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPJQO7mTAl
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtkqojRrAv
我吹的牛把澤妮亞唬得一愣一愣的。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDYz5QvE2U
其實海底洞窟那個呼吸都有困難的環境，哪兒能生得起火。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdD8Sr8BABS
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOF14ca8X4W
「……這些聽起來都是珍稀物種啊。煮了吃沒問題嗎？」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkNSNdo4Vl
「塔尼亞世界的珍稀物種關我們埃米爾界什麼事？83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3TooMU6IP
再說，那可是在次元洞窟。吃光了再去另一個次元就好了。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXQinJDtTu
那邊動物權益保障局可管不著。」83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWf4GFKboE
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7lyJYL1Yr
我們相視一笑，碰了碰杯，把剩下的果汁一飲而盡。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuZtVeDhCp
即使前路難測，但這一刻，我們都在為了自己而活。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkASL60pxRJ
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmHTX8XTAA
我曾經有過迷失路途的時候。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRptsJ98Zm
為了力量，為了財富，尋覓的盡頭，還是更長的尋覓。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnXTGam4B7
直到鯨魚離開了這個世界，一切都戛然而止。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cq4DvZLvc
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNocX3R1xfc
在下城區冰冷的床鋪上，我數著自己得到了什麼，又失去了什麼。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWv2b5WkUM
我對世界一無所知。對世界上活著的人一無所知。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG422QaGSXI
我的冒險不是為了自己，也不是為了別人。只是在追尋不存在的東西。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6TFwG2FUA
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvub0fmm3SL
我舉著蒼白的旗幟，卻以為掌握了世界。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcERCVPurIb
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTcIYu7WXJ
但是，即使目標從一開始就錯了，旅程也不會沒有價值。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUR08c82Ry
那些曾被我拋棄遺忘的知識，如今就像深埋塵土的黃金般發著光芒。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTNRvOkh7p
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ384RXHzrWL
我從未如此感覺到我的靈魂存在於此。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjxoFU26w4
我正憑藉自己的能力，為另一個靈魂帶來希望。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpgZDpXgx9
就如阿伊恩薩烏斯那個占卜師說的，冒險者的靈魂會散發光輝。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoCWF9fHUx
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsTZ1wsOCE
即使在睡夢之中，我仍在計劃明天的行程，對未來充滿期待。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn3abE6Cel
83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9JcsPTPVG
直到我們一大清早就在搶廁所用為止。83Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSjKzXV1HC
