Popular NPC in a Gender-Reversed Game

The journey was planned in the same way as last time: traveling with a merchant caravan for escort. It was much more convenient than renting a carriage and traveling such a long distance on our own. Of course, it meant traveling with a large group of people, but that was something I could easily tolerate by now.

This time, it seemed that there were more merchants drawn to the money scent of the situation. It made sense—danger tends to bring in profits, and with the risks, it was an opportunity for those looking for it.

Thanks to this, we quickly found a group to travel with. Of course, Neria was a bit suspicious to some, but...

"Hmm? Is this person also an adventurer?"

"Yes, that’s right. Doesn’t she look like part of the adventurer crew?"@@novelbin@@

"Well, she looks a bit young... and small. Seems like she couldn’t even hold a sword."

"She's a mage. I vouch for her skills."

"Well, if that’s the case... welcome aboard."

It wasn’t difficult to get through, though. After all, nobody would suspect her of being a manifester just from her appearance. Honestly, forging an adventurer’s badge was easy in this medieval setup, and that made it even simpler to get by.

Once we entered the caravan, I could see a large group of people around us: the coachman, porters hauling goods, and the adventurers acting as guards.

There were also many people casting quick glances in our direction. It was a familiar feeling by now. After all, it wasn’t common for a ‘man’ to be involved in physical labor...

As they observed us, I too took the opportunity to look around and observe the others. During that time, a familiar face caught my attention.

"No... so you’re saying the broadcasts will be on hiatus for about fifteen days? We’re just traveling, so what’s there to broadcast? I might take a break myself..."

It was Shin Hanbyeol. She was off to the side of the cart, arguing with viewers. She must have sensed my gaze, as she turned toward us.
