Day Three, Part Three

(In the cave)

???: Ah, a Summon Creature! How rare around here~

Rif: Oh? This is my partner, though.

???: Well! I'll bet you're a smart Summon Creature.

Killfith: Don’t patronize me, fool.

???: What a delightful person...
    -Well, never mind that. You wouldn't all be going towards town, would you?

Murno: And who on earth are you...?

???: Ah! No, no, I'm not anyone suspicious or anything!
    -I'm just Tier, the adorable road guide!

Rif: Eh?

Tier: Thanks to all these earthquakes, this area's full of more holes than a slice of Swiss Cheese. Further up it really starts turning into a maze.
    -So, if you wanna find your way through, you'll definitely need a road guide.

Rif: Oh, is that right.

Tier: (Wonderful...! This person's perfect...!)

V.E: And exactly how much would we be indebted to this road guide? Eh, Miss Tier?

Rif: Huh?! You want to take our money?

Tier: Oh?! Ohohohohoho...
    -Che! You're pretty sharp.

V.E: So, how much?

Tier: 200 Boam. But that's only because it's really easy to get lost further up.
    -So, if you wanna find your way through, you'll absolutely need a road guide

V.E: Hmmm... I'd have to check to make sure, but I don't think I have that kind of money on me.

Tier: What about you? Do you want a guide?

Rif: Eh~?
    -Maybe we should try asking for a guide...  >Paying for a Guide
    -We can cut through the road by ourselves!  >Carving a Path

//"Paying for a Guide" is waaaay further down//

Carving a Path
Rif: I think we'll be okay.

Tier: What?! But I’m giving you such a good deal, and you’ll really need a guide!
    -I'll be right here in case you wise up and change your minds.

(Side Conversation)
Rif: For the time being, let's set our course for town!

Killfith: Are you sure you don't want to ask that road guide for help?

V.E: I don't have the money.

Rif: You should just worry about making sure we arrive, Master.

V.E: Why don't you look your master in the face and try saying that again?

Murno: Wait, don't fight!

Rif: Fight?

V.E: Haha... Murno's so nice! You really are a good kid.

Murno: ?
(End)


Further into the cave…

Tier: Hey there~

Rif: When did you get here?!

Murno: ...

Killfith: You just get more suspicious by the second.

Tier: I already old you, I'm just a cute little road guide! That's not suspicious at all!

Murno: I wonder about that...

Tier: So, looks like up ahead it's full of even more holes that you can easily fall through, so I thought...
    -Maybe you'd like a road guide now~?

Rif: Again?

V.E: This place looks like a mole came by and dug a few families’ worth of burrows throughout, and I for one am getting fed up.

Tier: (Wonderful...! This time for sure, it's perfect...!)

V.E: By the way, what was the fee, again?

Tier: Yes, yes, of course, 200 Boam, thank you very mu~uch!

V.E: Hey, hey, we came this far without a road guide. The price is the same as before, but isn't it too much now?

Tier: Oh?! Ohohohohoho...
    -Che! How nit-picky!
    -Then…?

V.E: How about we halve the price?

Tier: HUH?!
    -Che...! Guess it can't be helped...
    -You got it. Half price, 100 Boam it is.

Rif: Half price, huh... what should I do?

Rif:
    -If it's half price, maybe we should ask for a road guide…  >Oh Lead Us
    -Let's keep cutting through the path by ourselves!  >No Thanks!

Oh Lead Us
(Paid 100b)

Tier: Thank you for your patronage~!
    -Che! Got an abominable profit from the second target of the day.

Rif: Target?

Tier: Nothing, never mind~. Pay no attention to what I just said there~.

V.E: ...

Tier: Anyway, please follow me. Around here, there are a lot of Strays, so please take care~.
    -(runs off)  >Following

No Thanks!
Tier: There are a lot of holes up ahead. It's a lot more troublesome.

V.E: Is that right? Well, with the new fee, I'll be able to pay for it.

Rif: Really?!

V.E: Yeah. So please be our road guide.

(V.E paid the fee!)

Tier: Thank you for your patronage~!
    -Che! Got an abominable profit from the second target of the day.

V.E: Did you say something?

Tier: No, nothing. Now around here, there are a lot of Strays, so please take care~.
    -(takes off)  >Following

Paying for a Guide
Rif: Then please lead us!

Tier: Road guide fee is 200 Boam, thank you very mu~uch!

(Paid 200b)

Tier: Thank you for your patronage!
    -Managed to put target number two in quick order. What a good day is today!

Rif: Target number two?

Tier: Nothing, never mind~. Pay no attention to what I just said there~.

V.E: ...

Tier: Anyway, please follow me. Around here, there are a lot of Strays, so please take care~.
    -(runs off, but the screen follows her)
    -Now, you'll want to go down this hole!

Further along…
Tier: Just go up these stairs!

Further along…  >Following

Following
Tier: Now, you'll want to go down this hole!

(Side Conversation)
Rif: Let's follow Tier.

Killfith: Do you really think we can depend on that human?

Rif: I think it'll be all right. Didn't she already say she was just a cute road guide?

Murno: I think what he means, to put it simply, is whether we can rely on a complete stranger.

Rif: Eh? (Is she angry?)

V.E: Ah, those exquisite adolescent years.
(End)

Further along…

Tier: If you go up these stairs, you'll come out above ground!
