Morlock, the branch manager of Shijiri City's Adventurers Guild, had finished the interview with the leader of the White Party and the adventurer who had been designated rank S, so with that weight finally off his mind, he exhaled and leaned against the sofa.
For the crucial matter concerning the Devil King from the oracle, he couldn't get any information beyond the fact that they were helped by that person by chance, but Morlock thought there was no need for him to investigate further. They were going to et with the Guild Master, so if there was anything to learn from them, he should be able to do it.
Then Morlock left the branch manager office and went down to the first floor, which was still in the midst of the battlefield.
Damn. Wouldn't this amount be able to crush a country?
The prices for spider materials are going to majorly fall for a while.
Barnet was poisoned. Soone get an antidote!?
They had already called for help from the surrounding guilds, but they still didn't have enough to deal with this quantity. In any case, Morlock was the one responsible for this Adventurers Guild office, so he needed to keep track of the progress of the work.
When Morlock entered the room, the staff looked like they were going to exchange greetings, but Morlock raised his hand to stop them. He told them that they didn't need to expressly stop working just because he ca and that they should continue as they were.
How is it going?
Then Morlock called out to the staff coordinator in that place.
Ah, branch manager. Yes, it's going well. Since the materials themselves are almost all the sa. Right now, we're checking their condition.
The staff mber responded to Morlock's question.
There are also other materials, like from the higher-ranking Madness Spiders, materials from monsters that were captured by the Mad Spiders, high-quality Black Crystals, etc., so we're in the middle of appraising those as well.
They brought a shocking amount. There hasn't been an uproar like this in years.
The staff mber laughed at Morlock's words. But he frowned when he looked at the materials.
However, seeing this is honestly horrifying. Although it's fine now that they've already been subjugated, it ans there were actually this number of Mad Spiders. If these guys had remained in the Black Stone Forest, I think Black Crystal production would have been impossible.
That's certainly true.
Morlock nodded deeply after the words of the staff mber.
Black Crystals were a valuable source of funds for this Shijiri City. The livelihoods of many in this city relied on the Black Crystals they employed adventurers to gather for them.
However, leaving the Mad Spiders alone and continuing to collect Black Crystals would have been impossible. After all, all the rank B adventurers in Shijiri City who went to see the situation were either killed or captured.
Even if many of the more powerful adventurers had left the city for a ti due to the decrease in Ogres, there were still reasonably strong adventurers around. But, needless to say, with this number of Mad Spiders, and on top of that, the leadership of the Boss Arachne Wired, the spiders had had the edge.
Even if Minshiana Kingdom's army had responded... that's right. Even if they had 1000 average soldiers, it probably would have been tough.
Thinking that way, Kazane's group and Asura Kazanerian were unmistakably the saviors of Shijiri City.
So then, what are the heroes of the city doing now?
After the staff mber's question, Morlock smiled and replied.
I had them go back a mont ago. They said they're going to the royal capital after they get the reward. From their way of talking, it seems they originally had plans to et Queen Yuuko.
As expected, they aren't ordinary adventurers?
That's right.
Morlock thought there was no way adventurers who had plans to et a queen were ordinary.
Well, our job is to complete the appraisal quickly, then give them their reward and a good send off.
So saying, Morlock rolled up his sleeves.
There was no way he could take it easy and just leave it all to the staff. Morlock joined the other staff in doing the appraisal work.
Perhaps due to that, the appraisal was safely completed that night. Except for so staff who had desk work remaining, everyone was able to get a good night's sleep that day.
Shijiri City, Adventurers Guild Office
Here. This is the request and subjugation reward. There is an additional paynt from the liquidated materials, so please check it against this list.
Yeah. Thanks, Onee-san.
The day after talking to the branch manager of the Adventurers Guild, Kazane ca to the Adventurers Guild office. Naturally, her purpose was to receive the reward. The receptionist had dark circles under her eyes, but she handed the list and coin purse to Kazane with a smiling face.
Mhmm. It looks like it's neatly organized.
As the Shorty started to check the accounting, the fidgeting receptionist called out to her.
Umm... err, Naoki-kun isn't with you today?
After those words, Kazane made aWhat in the world?expression, but she concluded that she was an acquaintance and answered honestly.
My younger brother is sleeping in the inn right now. He was considerably beaten up during today's special training, so I think he won't be able to move for a while.
The wordsYounger brotherandBeaten upmade the receptionist Onee-san freeze with question marks in her head, and Kazane left her alone as she checked the received amount of money against the itemized list.
The reward was higher than Kazane expected. Looking at the itemization, it seed the Bamboo Mushrooms she had included just because and the Black Crystals she found on the treetops had sold for large sums.
Kazane had known that Bamboo Mushrooms were a rare material, but it seed the Black Crystals Kazane discovered on the treetops were actually highly pure, making them extrely valuable. By the way, Black Crystals were clusters of sap that could be boiled and used in dicine or used as an interdiary for spells.
After she was done checking the amount of money against the list to confirm that the numbers matched, Kazane signed the docunt and safely received the money. The receptionist lady looked like she wanted to say sothing, but in the end, she saw Kazane off without saying anything.
Shijiri City, In Front of Adventurers Guild Office
Kazane. How was it?
When Kazane left the office, Yumika, who was waiting outside, called out to her. Tiara and Emily were also there with her.
Then Yumika offered Kazane a bird at skewer that was being sold nearby. It seed she had already eaten her own portion. Kazane found the evidence of that on her mouth.
Nn, thanks. Also, you have sauce around your mouth.
Kazane tapped her own mouth to point at it.
Eh, really?
So saying, Yumika took out a silver mirror. Originally, the quality of the mirror wasn't very good, but it was reborn as a sparkling high-quality mirror thanks to Kazane's processing with her Skill's CoatingMirror.
And while Yumika wiped it off with the handkerchief she took out of her Item Box along with the mirror, Kazane tasted the bird at skewer.
(It's sweet, but... it's not a soy-based sauce)
She didn't know what it was, but it was delicious. Enjoying the local food was one of the pleasures of traveling.
And while Kazane yummily ate, Tiara ca up beside her and asked a question.
So then, Kazane. How was the reward?
Yeah. Since there was a large quantity, the amount of money from the Mad Spider and Madness Spider materials wasn't great, but it seems the other materials were rare, so we earned more than I expected. Just rember that this will be divided up by the number of people.
When Kazane showed her the list, Tiara saidThat's rightand nodded. Emily looked at it from the side and made aWowexpression.
By all appearances, it wasn't an amount that could be earned from a single subjugation request. Which wasn't surprising, considering the number of Mad Spiders defeated in the Black Stone Forest was dozens of tis higher than the result of a general monster subjugation request. On top of that, so percentage of the material liquidation was from the rare materials found by Kazane.
Readily dividing this into equal parts... Emily had that sort of sensitivity and honestly had a problem with it, but Kazane and Tiara weren't very concerned about money. Kazane was a girl who lived in the mont, so she used it when she had it and didn't use it when she didn't. Tiara also seed to have a princess-like sense of money. By the way, it seed Yumika had saved up a considerable amount of the money she had obtained, but as a matter of fact, that was nothing more than the saving habit she'd had since long ago. It wasn't to the degree of Kazane, but Yumika's sense also wasn't very reliable, as was evident by the quality of her daily als. There was royalty, a person used to being around royalty, and a battle junkie among the remaining mbers, so most of them were similarly loose with money.
For Emily, who was of this world and was relatively a person of common sense, it was a subject that made her stomach hurt. Then Emily resolved herself to ask Kazane.
Kazane, after all, I have a problem with dividing it evenly.
Is that so?
Kazane tilted her head after Emily's question.
Yeah. So then, this is just a consultation, but why don't I divide a portion of it up for now and judge what would be reasonable for the rest later?
Emily's words made Kazane blink in surprise, but she could understand what she was saying.
Nn, ok.
Kazane accepted Emily's words without hesitation.
After hearing that reply, Emily was relieved from the bottom of her heart. Emily couldn't endure her own endlessly increasing assets and the situation of constantly splitting such fortunes any longer. And the White Party's treasurer was created here.
After that, Kazane and the others spent their ti going around several clothing stores in this town and buying the clothes they liked. On the way back, they stopped by a curio shop, which unexpectedly had Mana Potions in stock, so Kazane bought them all on the spot.
The Mana Potions were so expensive that Emily was lost for words, but Kazane expended a lot of Magic Power, so they were items that could possibly beco her lifeline.
They earned a lot of money, so not buying them wasn't an option, and with this purchase, Kazane had a total of 4 Mana Potions.

Yumika: Mana Potions are as expensive as usual.
Kazane: It seems that since the manufacturing thod has been lost, they can only be obtained in dungeon treasure chests, so I think the unit cost increase can't be helped.
