Nothing could disrupt his absolute concentration at that moment, not even the presence of a pretty blonde saleswoman. Nodding to her at the entrance – after all, some habits die hard – he strode purposefully towards the celestial creature catcher, but halfway there, he stopped, noticing a strange item in the price list.
- Good afternoon, - he said to the saleswoman, maintaining a formal tone. - "Miniature Asuguh" – is that what I think it is? For 10 rem, do I get a voucher for any purchases? And what's the catch?
Having said this, he tried to figure out what this mysterious "Miniature Asuguh" was.

- Your name and your opinion regarding the upcoming war. It's a guild assignment, - explained Ferrus.

- Himal, guardian of Sizka. I don't think there's any reason to worry - our kingdom will never give up the lands that its subjects have cared for from generation to generation!

Well, the relationship was still damaged. What can you do? Formally, she distracted the head of the community from the real magical spy throughout the conversation.

“It’s good that we didn’t have to retreat on our own,” Kamistella said after a short silence, “but I suspect that we overdid it and they weren’t actually plotting against us. On the other hand... the price of a mistake is death.”

Excellent, now, in addition to the theoretical return of the Black Knight and Druj, she should also be wary of the Lunarian assassins.

- Hmm, something’s not right here...,” Erika replied to Kamistella.
- What are we going to do? I actually need to check out other places too...
- But something tells me that they won’t let us in now...
- I have one more request...,” Erika looked at Kamistella.
- My task is to check all locations in the capital for any “supernatural” presence. Could you lend me your monocle for a while? I think it might be useful in some cases. I’ll return it later.

Don’t worry, Astral. Erika keeps her word. Sir Kir and Protector Shingen could confirm this if they were standing nearby...
It’s just gathering dust with you anyway.

I'll return it later.

"Do I have a monocle? Oh, right." Camistella rarely used this item because it didn't match her style. "Hmm, take it. By the way, would you like to go with me to that shop with three question marks instead of a name? I'm sure we can find something useful there," the generous Lunar Elf suggested. If Camistella had known that a certain Mr. Ghenza had purchased a broken cart, she would have been upset.

Nothing could disrupt his absolute concentration at that moment, not even the presence of a pretty blonde saleswoman. Nodding to her at the entrance – after all, you can't break a habit – he walked with a determined step towards the celestial hunter, but halfway there, he stopped, noticing an incomprehensible item in the price list.
- Good afternoon, - he addressed the saleswoman, maintaining a formal tone. - "Miniature Asuguh" - is that what I think it is, and for 10 rem, will I get a voucher for any purchases? And what's the catch?
Having said this, he tried to understand what this mysterious "Miniature Asuguh" was.

- Hello. Miniature Asuguh is this.

The pretty blonde saleswoman points to a model of Asuguh.

famous last words

Literally a red flag for experience gain; many of my characters can confirm this. I clearly remember one character who died in a tournament after taking money from Sarnissa, Osamu.

"Do I have a monocle? Oh, right."

"Maybe you also forgot about the sprig of Sygonium?" Erika would have asked if she could read minds...

– Mm, here.

- Thank you.

Erika took the monocle from Camistella and put it in the only currently empty accessory slot.

"I should have asked for it right away. Then I would have already known if this 'community leader' has anything to do with our guild or not..." she thought.

By the way, would you like to go with me to the shop with three question marks instead of a name? I'm sure we can find something useful there," offered the generous Lunarian.

If Camistella knew that a certain Mr. Genza had purchased a Necrodagger, she would have been upset.

"Of course, especially since I haven't been there yet..."

- Of course," Erika replied, and they set off with Camistella to the designated location.

Before entering, she, of course, did not forget to cast a spell to detect magic, approaching at a sufficient distance.

Kamistella and Erika arrive at ???. I wonder who the shopkeeper is now, and if there’s anyone else there besides us.

- I have no other regrets worth mentioning.

Not expecting such profound royal revelations, Asmidul even put down his chocolate bar so as not to disrupt the established atmosphere with chewing and smacking.
—...Yes, this "Riedel's hunt" of yours sounds like something that might have interested me, but ultimately it wouldn't have held my attention due to my personal "lack of teamwork." And now I also want to visit Goldenglow; the description was very captivating. Burnout and relationships with family are familiar topics to me, although due to my young age, I cannot yet share wise advice or compare my own regrets.

After a moment of silence, he decides to elaborate on this thought:
—At the beginning of our meeting, our conversation briefly touched upon parallel realities, and I think this also applies to regrets from the past. No one can now tell how the situation would have turned out "if things had been different." Painful memories of a broken friendship leave a longing for better times, and who knows, perhaps this is more valuable than emotional burnout, when you and your friend simply stop communicating. For every unfinished project, you can boast about a successfully implemented reform, which, even if it didn't please everyone, still made the lives of many of your subordinates better. As for loved ones, sometimes humility and love are not enough, even if it may seem so later. In the end, the attitude of truly dear people is based on your true "self," which we can only accept...

—...But the conclusions drawn from this, as I see it, show a focused, personality-driven progress; —and even if not for you, it will certainly be beneficial for someone young and inexperienced like me. —he nodded confidently in agreement. —Thank you for that.

Genza strained his brain, trying to make sense of it, and looked at Asuguh this way and that, before admitting: - To be honest, I still don't quite understand. At the end of the month, which city will be considered better? Based on how many coins people have contributed to it over the past 10 rounds.

Magical energy, both divine and cursed, was detected in the shop. Inside, a couple of spellcasters were greeted by the sight of the shopkeeper.

Yes, nature definitely favors women more. In this world, Camistella and Kimchilla have many worthy competitors.

– You are so beautiful, madam, – the lunar creature complimented the merchant. – It’s always a pleasure to see such a wonderful face. What do you specialize in?

Erika’s diagnosis no longer bothered Camistella. Damn it, what is she babbling about! There’s also the divine one!

"Hmm... so, 'unholy' magic is present here," thought Erika, after which she decided to examine the goods for now.

Erika Camistell's diagnosis was no longer of much concern. Well, she's cursed and cursed, why is she muttering? There's also divine magic!

First of all, how would Camistell know the result of the check? And secondly, it's possible that the witch-wife is using love potions on her divine husband. :D

How does the monocle work? Does it automatically show the origin and guild affiliation, or is something else required?

Added 3 hours 36 minutes later

(skipped days and days without events do not count)

And do the locations visited during the skip (for example, to buy items) count?

Genza strained his brain, looking at Asuguh this way and that, and then admitted:
- To be honest, I still don't quite understand. At the end of the month, which city will be considered the best? Based on how many coins people have invested in it over 10 rounds.

- You're suggesting an interesting idea, but in reality, it's a little different. In this game, players compete with each other for control of Asuguh! - Svirpka playfully made a menacing face and rubbed her hands together slyly. - Imagine yourself as the owner of a royal palace or a Temple of Shiris, for example; wouldn't that be great?

How does the monocle work? Does it automatically show the origin and guild affiliation, or is there something else to do?

You need to write that you activate it.

And do locations visited during a skip (e.g., for buying items) count?

Let's say they do.
