42 Episode 30 Rewards and Requests

Gilbert said he'd be out at the same time, but I didn't think it was something to follow. Looks like they're moving a certain distance from our carriage.

Looking at the map doesn't seem particularly hostile. It feels like I don't want to take my eyes off one way or another.

I mean, it was quite a hassle because Gilbert was watching it nearby, he couldn't fight using alien powers or something, and he had to keep everyone out of the 'room'.

Arriving in Atarime City, we decided to head to the Adventurers Guild. We have to liquidate the processing we put behind us.

Ask the receptionist to take care of the guild leader. Gilbert is coming with me, by the way, for some reason.

"Why is Gilbert following me?

"I'm sorry. I'm not directly related to Stampede, but I need to talk to you a little bit. I'm sorry, sir, but would you mind if I took your place in a conversation with the guild chief?

"I don't mind, but you don't know what a guild leader is?

"Thank you. Don't worry about the guild leader. The Guild Commander knows my situation, too. I wouldn't disagree."

Why do you mind if I have Gilbert present? The reason for this lies in Gilbert's status.

Gilbert.

LV32

Gender: Male

Age: 29

Race: Human

Skill:

Title: Queen Knight

Look at the title. You'll see, the letters of the queen knight... Where am I? Oh, it's Queen Castar. When I say Queen's Knight, it's like the Queen's Kingsguard, higher than a regular knight. Naturally, the required strength is also considerably higher.

This time it worked pretty flashy. I was thinking about the possibility of getting into some kind of trouble, and naturally I'm ready. Suddenly I didn't think of it as a royal relationship...

A moment later, the guild leader arrived.

"Oh, I've been waiting for you. I have the room, so let's talk about the details there."

By the way, I'm a full member and I'm coming to the guild now. Of course Mr. Tamo and Midori are waiting in the carriage. Waiting is unbitter obedience, seriously precious.

"Mm..., the fact that Gilbert is here..."

"Oh, I'm gonna ask him"

"Well... well, naturally considering this one..."

Guild leaders and Gilbert have a meaningful conversation. Probably trouble-related, nothing else...

I went to the reception room. This is a big place too, but it looks like they had a chair for the number of people. Dora's on my lap, by the way. be healed.

Quickly the guild leader started talking.

"Let me start by thanking you for yesterday's stampede. Thanks to you, both human and rural damage could be reduced by 0. Given the stampede occurrence, you can call it the finest feat"

As far as I'm concerned, I've done it on my own, and it's for me, so I don't feel comfortable even if it might be too much.

"In the meantime, I'd like to give you the reward..., sorry. I couldn't have prepared anything like a special reward for you. The Alliance only sent out clam defense by compulsion, because beating stampede beforehand is arbitrary, if you put it badly."

That's natural in a way. I mean, it's not for reward, so I don't even care.

"What, there's punishment or something!?

Mio stands up and speaks up. I'm sensitive to punishment because I was born.

"No, that's not it. It's not a mistake to go to rescue in a carriage, or to interrupt a little demon because you have plenty of room. But if a normal E-rank does that, it's nothing like a far-flung suicide."

That's right. I was careful to make excuses. Did Mio feel safe too? I'll sit back in my chair.

"I mean, you would have acted as if it was advantageous, no matter how much?

They're finding out. Well, it's not enough to hide. Sometimes he acted as if it didn't matter if he insisted on being felt.

"When it comes to rewards, I have a portion of my dedication to evacuation by carriage, and a portion of my defense in the city, so take it."

That's what I said, they gave me a small bag. It would be a reward for what I just said.

"I'm sorry I couldn't do anything to make you give way to the Demonic Stone of Stampede."

No, it's not that much of a concern.

"I gave the adventurers the Demon Stone from our side. Don't worry, there was nothing like complaining about stopping Stampede beforehand."

Gilbert supplements. I don't think it's weird that some people complain about being deprived of their prey...

"If I had done it honestly and decently, there would have been a small number of casualties among Atarime adventurers. Tyra Forest is famous for not having demons come out unless it's a stampede. Instead, it's hard to get inside unless you're a senior adventurer."

Maybe the city of Atarime was pretty pinch, too. As far as I can tell, the battle power ratio would be somewhat to the extent Atarime said above. I know I could have protected you, but I would have never been unharmed. Above all, behind the stampede was Tyrannosaurus. If that had come next to Stampede, the city of Atarime would have been devastated.

"Speaking of which, can I ask why you called me over here? It's not just about public speaking, is it?

To this extent, I wouldn't have had a problem going at the guild reception. To the reception room, no, let's put it right. Bringing him to the 'Chamber of Secrets' means nothing more than that there is something the rest of us don't want to hear.

"... ok. Of course that's not the point. There are three purposes. A reward, a question and a favor."

You've got a lot on your mind. Which will come?

"First, it's a reward. Jen, I'd like to increase your Adventurer Rank to B..."

"Decline"

I said no too lightly, for a moment, but the guild leader also looked frightened. I seem to have strained my mind immediately.

"Why? I saw your activity record, but it seemed to vigorously raise the Adventurer Rank, so I thought of leveling it up as a reward for this one... The B-ranks will give you an easier exam than the normal one, right?

"My aim is not to increase the Adventurer Rank, but to make the Adventurer Rank C"

That said, the guild chief and Gilbert look like convinced.

"It's about the duties of advanced adventurers..."

"Oh, my purpose is a free journey. Neither disproportionate rights nor obligations are where we want them. Intermediate Critical C-rank is number one. If you call it a reward, consider making it C-rank. Oh, with the party members if you can."

"Hmm."

Roaring guild leader. Is it harder to make it C-rank?

"No, I don't have the strength to stop Stampede on his own at C-rank... Because I really want you to take the position you deserve for something powerful."

I don't know what it feels like, but I need a break. I find nothing appealing about this worthy position in the world.

"You like C-rank, huh?... You can't say C about party members on a boulder. You're the only C-rank, and the other members are D-ranked. How about that?

That's what I'm gonna tell you. It's strong enough, so you just need to think you've saved yourself the trouble of taking the request.

By the way, let me explain the scope of the Alliance Leader's authority. Looks like you can rank up some meritorious adventurers up to C-rank at the discretion of the Alliance Leader. Exams above the B-rank, which will be just as advanced, although they add some points, are not sweet enough to take just that.

"Okay. By the way, those 8 guys are above the B rank, no, I don't care how much you increase your rank because you're aiming for the S rank."

Point to the corner where Claude or Coco are located. Claude and the others all of a sudden seemed surprised to be told the story.

"That's something with a lot of big goals... No, he's with the mighty. Maybe the day will really come..."

You seem to appreciate me quite a bit.

"Come and renew your guild card later. Increase your rank there.... but when you hear that story, the second question is a thin one."

I mean, the question is...

"Oh, it's the thing about telling me the secret of your strength. As far as I can tell, I was hoping to ask..."

"You can't."

"Well, don't be."

I don't mind people finding out that I'm strong, but I can never tell you the details. It's a skill. It's suspicious that you can believe it, even if it's alien, and it's not of any benefit where you can believe it.

"It's one of the guild jobs at once to hear some secrets from the powerful and say rank up the entire adventurer. Well, the information is easily life-line, so it's completely irrelevant. I used to hear that nobody could use it after all."

Serdik, I'm teaching you how to shrink! If Maria's shrinkage laws had been seen, it would have been a pain in the ass.

Oh, Maria's ear is lying down called Petan. I guess I feel like I've done something extra.

"Well, what kind of technology is that?

"Oh, that's..."

"Let's move on than that."

I forcefully cut off the flow because Gilbert was interested and the story seemed to continue.

"Oh, oh... Guild Leader. Soon this story will be..."

"Mm-hmm. The last one was a request from Gilbert."

Gilbert makes his residence right when he says so.

"I'm sorry I let you take the time. Let's first disclose my position before we make a request. I am the knight of this country, the head of the queen's knight's army."

"This is a true story. This isn't the first time you've asked me to do this."

Alliance length supplements. I know from the beginning that's not a lie because I'm looking at the title...

"Oh, you're right.... By my request, Jen, I would like you to go to Queen Castar's capital, Quindam, and meet Her Majesty."

Meet the Queen...

Royalty has unpleasant memories, and you're likely to get into unpleasant trouble.

"Things..."

"I need you to listen to me for a second."

You seem to have sensed my refusal, and I've covered my words.... Gilbert himself is a good guy, can I talk to him for a little while?

"... what?

"I'm sorry. It would be nice to decline the request, but at least listen to me till the end."

"There is no compulsory right to say anything about a factual request for nomination. As a matter of fact, some of them have turned down their requests. And don't worry, I'm not a nobleman."

"Naturally. I don't want to fall that far either."

Enough to make representations in front of the guild chief. So I guess I really don't have to worry about that. Or I guess the way Gilbert put it means you have a crush on people like that. Well, naturally, in a way.

"Okay. Let's hear it till the end."

"Thanks"

If the right to say no is clearly ensured, it's not a problem enough to go along with the story. So far, 'I won't take it' presupposes...

"I don't know why, but His Majesty is gathering strong adventurers. I was traveling all over the place to find adventurers like that by order of His Majesty and to have them go to the King's Capital."

Gathering strong adventurers. I don't have a very good prediction.

"Ten days later, he says, he will announce why His Majesty gathered them. If you can, it is my request that you go to the King's Capital by then. The reward is a million gold just to meet the Queen. It is not negotiable because below A-rank is a uniform amount. I want you to understand that."

Ten days from here, it will take seven days to reach Wangdu, so you have enough time to sightsee by the village along the way. If I were to take the request.

The asking fee is high as a million, but I would say that the amount is a true indication of the annoyance.

"We have already gathered high-ranking adventurers from all over the country. The A-rank, the B-rank combined should have more than 50 people. That goes for the four S-rank adventurers in our country."

What, the S-Rank Adventurer is being gathered by the King's Capital? So you weren't in the city of Connoe... That being said, if you take this request and go to Wang Capital, you will be able to meet the S-rank Adventurer. You've got a reason to want to get a little help.

Will the final decision be taken later and the necessary information collected for now?

"May I speak to you about Her Majesty? I've just come to this country recently, and I don't know the details."

Q: What does the queen look like?

A: I took office about six months ago. All royalties except the Queen are ill and dead. No matter how much we investigated, there was absolutely nothing suspicious about it, which led us to reign queen.

That sounds like a back.

A: That and one thing that bothers me...

... Hmm.

"Her Majesty recently reigned, and the other candidates, or the royal family, are all sick and dead."

"Is that okay?

"The investigation was solid. Still, there was nothing suspicious about Her Majesty, who was a princess at the time."

"I sent investigators from the Alliance, too, so I'm pretty sure."

You had a word of concern.

"You mean the princess is still young?

"Her Majesty is ten years old."

"Isn't that young, not young?

"It's governed by complete lineage. It doesn't matter if you're young. Besides, Her Majesty the Queen is brilliant and has absolutely no problems in terms of governance."

Queen Lori... No, that's not what I'm talking about.

Let's sort out a little bit if we're going to take the request.

Let's start with the King's Capital. One of the purposes of the journey is tourism, so there is no option of not seeing the Wang Capital. Unless there's a reason why you don't want to go. Besides, the King's Capital is home to S-rank adventurers. Active S-Rank Adventurers are quite intriguing.

The queen is next. It is certain that the Queen is about to do something, and as long as she is in this country, she is never unlikely to get caught up in it. The odds will increase even further when you go to Wang Du.

This is the last country. I like this country a lot. As much as I'd like to stay for a while longer... If the Queen is trying to make it worse, I'm in trouble too. Then it may also be ant to go straight into the vortex and think about dealing with it in the first place.

Wouldn't it be better mental health to just get involved and just get it over with than to spend some time stuffy wondering when you're going to get involved?

Oh, let's also add that I'm interested in Queen Lori, saying it's because of Gilbert's request as a reason for Omake.

After I lined up so far, I found that there was no reason in me not to go. It would be somewhat cumbersome, but it's no big deal if you think it's one of the events.

In the meantime, let's hear everyone's opinions in the reading.

I'm going to take this request.

Are you sure? You're gonna get caught up in some royal trouble, aren't you? Jen just thought I'd say no... "

Are you against Sakura?

"I would prefer not to be royal..."

I know how you feel, though. Because the first royalty I met is alle...

"I will obey Jen as usual."

I want to go to the castle!

And Dora!

Maria is as usual and the two kids want to go to the castle (Mio treats children).

"If your husband says we all obey, why don't you tell us why?

That's what Serra's right... But I don't like to go ahead on my own without even asking my opinion. I sometimes gori push after hearing it... Set aside which is better if you don't listen to me.

I let everyone know what I just sorted out.

"Well, more than just gathering strong adventurers, we're going to get involved somewhere..."

"I mean, sooner or later, you'll get involved than the Queen's Knight is eyeing you..."

"I see why. I don't really go along with it, but it would be somewhat better to jump in from myself if I said which is better... Oh, we're not going to the royal castle. I'll wait outside."

Well, I guess I'm the only one who can get into the castle on this request if you normally think about it. I want to go with you. I want to do something to take you. Sakura, who has unpleasant memories of the royalty, would leave a message to avoid offending...

Sakura's okay, so I'm gonna take this request.

When Gilbert showed me what I was thinking, he waited for this reaction without talking in particular. I look up and face Gilbert.

"I've been thinking a lot about it, and I'm going to take that request"

"Right! Thank you! If you decide to do so, take this letter to King's Landing."

So Gilbert takes two white and brown envelopes out of his nose and hands them to me.

"You're ready."

"Oh, I was ready to give you the letter as soon as you were ready to take the request,"

Are you a good looking maid? I guess it's sarcastic hot.

"I'm glad you didn't waste your preparation, Gilbert. This is the requisition form. For once, it was a request through the guild."

"Okay."

Receive and confirm the requisition form from the guild manager.

"We also plan to return to the King's Capital as soon as we are ready. I'm leaving tomorrow, but if that's okay, we'll escort..., no. I'll take care of the evening shift and the meal preparation, okay?

It would be an offer of goodwill, but let's not be afraid because there will be restrictions on our actions.

"No, fine. Let us go at our own pace because tourism is also the purpose of our journey"

"Okay. The tea envelope contains a map of Wang Du, directions to the castle gate, recommended accommodation, etc., so please refer to it."

You're a real maid. Map, then you won't even tell me what to recommend.

A: I will try.

How?

A: (fast thinking...)

"Okay. Thank you. Take it."

That's all we talked about. The guild leader stood up.

"Looks like you're done talking. Jen, what are you going to do now? As soon as you renew your guild card, you're leaving?

"Right. I plan to leave when I'm done updating, have lunch, and get ready."

"Well, come back to this city if you feel like it."

"Oh, I'm coming to get some rice. I'll stop by."

"This city is full of rice..."

That's what I said, Guild Chief, Gilbert and I broke up. We updated our guild cards.

"Are you glad you even ranked us up for nothing? That's pretty much Jen's credit, isn't it?"

"Maria and Sella are at work for once, but we haven't really done anything..."

Sakura and Mio seem to care about the ranking up.

"No, I (I) just moved the carriage too..."

"I just crusaded Jen's punching leak, too. Tamo could have been more helpful..."

"That's okay. There's nothing wrong with merit."

"I don't think we have the strength either."

says Claude. Actually, that's not true. Given the level of skill and training given, I think it has reached the critical D-rank line.

"Well, there's a pattern where only the title goes up and strength goes on later. Think you got lucky and give up."

"Ha..."

Receive an updated Alliance Card. Speaking of which, I missed the fastest F-rank, but could the fastest C-rank have been reached?

A: We have a record of reaching B-rank in 2 days of Adventurer registration, so it's not a record update.

Well... that sounds a little tricky over there. Probably the same as me, couch up all at once for some feat...

A: Exactly.

I knew it. Given the amount of time it would take around one request, you wouldn't be able to update a record by legitimate means.

For now, my chances of updating my records are over, so you're looking forward to developing slaves.

"In the meantime, as Gilbert told me, I'm going to proceed to reach the King's Capital within 10 days"

"It takes seven days, doesn't it? What about the other three days?

"You haven't made any particular decisions. If it's something interesting in a village on the road, you can crush it with it, or you can take a look around the king's capital without it. We just decided to leave so that freedom around here would prevail."

Rinki Oohee

Oh, Dora said something embarrassing! Stroke quickly.

"Now, Master, why did you stroke about Dora?

"Mr. Mio told you. Your husband loves Dora..."

I only tell the newcomer slaves that Dora can't talk, but because I haven't taught her how to read, it means she doesn't know why I stroke Dora.

I look at Dora with eyes that Coco and Lolo seem a little envious of. stroke. Hereinafter abbreviated.

"We'll leave when we're almost ready in this city."

After that, we were to share and prepare for the journey.

When I tried to sell the Demon Stone I got at Stampede, I was told that I couldn't have it ready right away because in total it was going to be over 10 million gold. I have no choice, so I plan to redeem it in Wang Du. Orcs and orga demon stones sell fairly high, so naturally?

In addition, I decided to sell some of the demon-owned weapons I had collected, or buy more food that was becoming a little less forgiving because of the increase in the number of people. Ever since I started my adventurer in earnest, it has also stabilized in income terms. It seems to be a lie that in the beginning they were being chased by dimes. However, we are still far from a base.

Yeah, it's the demon stone of Tyrannosaurus, but I appraised it with < Chirii Eye (System Window) > and said it's 10 million gold in one. Honestly, the digits are different, aren't they? Of course I won't sell it. I mean, I can't sell it. But I don't think there's anything wrong with having Mr. Tamo eat it. Mr. Tamo, I don't want Tyranno forms or anything like that... I had no choice but to die. There must be a lot of uses for demon stones, so one day they'll be useful (human constant coats that can't be cleaned up).

After lunch, we were leaving Atarime City after noon. The main members (me, Sakura, Dora, Mio, Maria, Sera) ride the carriage, the rookies are half carriage and the other half in the 'room'. Inside the 'room' has nothing to do with the outside sway, so it's more relaxing than being swayed in a carriage. I get some sleep in the 'room' sometimes too...

I tell the newcomers to make potions while they're in the 'room', with two hour shifts, and every single one of them is a norm, so I can afford the time.

Wang Du headed south from here. It is ahead. We are going to stop by because there are several villages on the way. The first village is two days away from here by carriage. Of course, some villages are closer if you change your path slightly, so this is the story of the shortest route you can take in 7 days to the Wang capital.

"Do you have any specialties for the next village? You have tourist attractions?

"Jen, it's quite possible that you're taking up more time."

Mio and Sakura ask questions.

Sure, if you look at my behavior so far, it's often that you have some idea. Unfortunately, however, there is no particular story this time.

"No, nothing this time. I'm not really looking into it."

"Really?

"There are also only two or three villages to pass by. And even if you toured, only two days a day... Not as good as I do until I search. I think you should feel like you're making money if you need anything."

A: Interesting stuff, there is.

I'm super curious about that. Something I should ask you?

A: No, it doesn't make a big difference if you ask or not because you know if you go. I don't think it would be particularly detrimental, so it would be a good idea to keep the fun after.

Then let's not ask. If it's harmless, there's not much you need to know in advance. Thanks to Alta's prior scrutiny of the information, I no longer have to spend a huge amount of time searching myself. So far, you can feel the convenience of Multiple Presence (Avatar).

"I just heard from Alta that there seems to be something interesting. Don't ask me for details about later fun."

"Heh, that's exciting."

"Oh, I guess it's so funny when it comes to Alta being funny"

A: Do not raise the hurdle.

Tell me from myself what now...

"It doesn't seem that far."

"Which is it?

"Well, you mean you can have some fun."

Let's not expect too much.

"Um, who are you talking about Alta?

"Secret company."

The Claudes have not been briefed on Alta. "Secret Power" again, "Secret Companion". Nice one. Let's keep using it.

"There are too many secrets from your husband... And all this is too awesome..."

Claude was squealing. He discloses some secrets because it's inconvenient to hide them too much. In the meantime, I've taught you everything you can about < inherent magic >. Even so, not to mention the consequences of alien powers, but simply the fact that special magic can be used.

Other explanations have been given because they bogged down that it was special "containment" or that it was alien. I'm going to give you accurate information.
