Ara, Kain-kun. Youre together with Ys-chan today?
A woman at the reception desk called out to Kain as they arrived at the Adventurers Guild.
The owner of that voice was Laura. She was the poster staff mber of the Edius Branch which unified the Adventurers Guilds St. Altlis Kingdom area.
The Adventurers Guild existed in every country, and Edius was originally the main office for it. However, having been struck by the current unstable situation, the main office moved to the Canal Kingdom together with the staff mbers that werent Human.
The current Edius Branch was managed by staff mbers that were all Human.
For the Adventurers Guild that touted freedom and equality, this situation was naturally unintentional.
Ah, Laura-san. Hello.
Yes, hello. Its good to see that youre doing well today as well.
Maybe because it was noon, the Guild that is usually a ss with Adventurers coming back was deserted. Even Laura, who he normally didnt have much of a chance to talk to due to normally being really popular, was looking bored right now. For the male staff mber who was alway free next to her, he was starting to doze off.
Could it be that we ca here with great timing?
Thats right. But, Kain-kun, it also feels like you always co here with great timing.
Seeing Laura laugh with an *ahaha*, Kain replied with a forced smile.
Normally, this was where he would start with so frivolous talk butas he felt a smirking presence from behind him, he just couldnt get into his normal rhythm.
Ara, how lonely. Even though I thought you would say sothing like its because I ca to see you, Laura-san like you always do.
Geh, L, Laura-san!?
Ara. To say geh. How rude.
With this exchange, he felt the presence of laughter being held in behind him.
Seeing as how Laura was displaying dejection with exaggerated gestures, it was clear that her earlier statent was intentional.
After breathing a large sigh, Kain raised a pathetic voice.
Laura-saan. Please give a break. Im already being suspected of being a womanizer, you know?
Ara, I feel that thats the truth though.
Making a sidelong glance at Kain who had hung his head crestfallen, Ys stepped up to the counter.
Might there be any simple requests?
Un. Then, want to try doing to dicinal herb searching?
Laura pointed out to the written request docunts posted up onto the wall.
After ignoring that, Ys placed her hands on the counter.
Of course I dont want thatis what I would like to say, but Kain, what might you think?
Eh? ? Un, Ys, if youre not into it, then wouldnt sothing else be better?
Seeing the two of them throwing the decision at each other, Laura took out a file that consolidated the written requests while making a wry smile.
Well, lets see. There are a good amount of subjugation requests in the Aledona Forest but. For Goblinsfor GoblinsAlso, for Goblinsand one for Goblins I suppose.
Theres nothing but Goblin requests.
Thats right. Thats just how urgent it is.
Laura put down the written request file while making a wry smile.
In the Shutaia Continent, Goblins were known as Mazoku that anyone could typically encounter. They could create settlents anywhere, and they were savage due to their low intelligence. Moreover, they would increase in numbers right away.
One wouldnt have a hard ti if it was just against one of them, but once their numbers were large enough for them to form a settlent, they would beco an enemy that shouldnt be made light of.
Since they were easy to discover on plains, they would be destroyed relatively quickly. However, there were also many cases where their discovery was late when they start multiplying in forests and rocky areas, and they would increase into a number that cant be handled by the ti theyre found. And then, the extermination request would co in on the Adventurers Guild unexpectedly.
Of course, the extermination request would be sent to the countrys chivalric orders, but since the chivalric orders have other important duties, they cant be dispatched all that often. That is why the problems that the chivalric orders dont handle are settled by Adventurers.
Well, it certainly would be troubling if they were to multiply in the Aledona Forest.
Thats right. The Canal Kingdom is an important place for trade after allThat being said, it looks like the state of that country has also been unstable recently though.
For the St. Altlis Kingdom, whose relationship with the Jiol Forest Kingdom had beco dicey, the importance of international trade with the Canal Kingdom, which also had Human rchants, was increased.
Of course, there were so among the St. Altlis Kingdom rchants that continued to do business with the Jiol Forest Kingdom as usual, but even so, the amount of goods circulating from there had drastically decreased when compared to before. Even the international trade with the Cylas Empire, it wasnt at the sa level as the Jiol Forest Kingdom, but it couldnt avoid the effects of the situation.
The Canal Kingdom, which was currently the St. Altlis Kingdoms greatest international trading partner, was the country that one would arrive at by passing through the highway that went through the Aledona Forest.
In other words, the fact that Goblins were multiplying in the Aledona Forest ant that they would beco an obstacle for international trade with the Canal Kingdom.
There are quite a number of people accepting the requests though. But even so, additional requests co right awayHonestly, it is really troubling.
For Goblins, in cases where they are attacked by enemies and they escape, their multiplication abilities would generally make a sudden rise afterwards. For that reason, when Goblins that people failed to finish off were left alone, they would increase to a number that surpassed their original settlent.
The cause of this reproductive power change was unknown, but this special ability of the Goblins that they called Survival Instinct was one of the reasons why Goblins had yet to disappear from the Shutaia Continent.
Even for the Guild, situationally, they have determined that the degree of difficulty was to be raised to greater than B. The Aledona Forest requests will be gathered and consolidated into a special designation request. It happened, just this afternoon.
Seeing Laura make a broad smile, Kain unconsciously took a step back.
Seriouslyyou really did co with great timing, Kain-kun.
Special designation requests were things that the Guild would designate against multiple requests that had similar causes.
As for cases where it was applied in the past, there was the annihilation of the huge bandit group Griez. In addition, there was also one to deal with the Demon King Army that was lead by the Demon King Shuklous that had thrown mankinds territory into terror in the past.
Ah, noumThis ti, we didnt co to take on that kind of huge request
Then, well take that. Please register us as a temporary party where Kain is the main and I am support.
Got it. But, if youre doing this anyway, rather than a temporary party, wouldnt it be fine to accept it registering as a regular party?
Its fine. For the ti being, we plan on adjusting it to make this ti just a day trip. Being a temporary party is enough.
Listening to that talk that was advancing on without a hitch, Kain beca troubled while halfway extending his hand.
For Kain, he thoroughly understood the important of this tis request. There is even talk of it having an effect on Sharons Tianot Company, so he couldnt just leaving as having nothing to do with him. Sooner or later, it would be a story where he would have to cooperate in it though.
Where is my willin all of this?
Its not a problem. Kain, your will lives on inside of after all.
That ans that Ive died, doesnt it!?
After making a retort on Ys, who was smoothly signing the docunts, Kain breathed a large sigh.
Well, I guess its fine. More importantly, Ys, are we really going with just the two of us?
Thats right. It starts in the afternoonThat ans that well be the first to arrive. Thats just wonderful, isnt it.
Calling it wonderfulEven if Seira is impossible, lets at least take Sharon or Ein
Having finished signing the docunt and handing it over to Laura, Ys shrugged her shoulders while looking over it.
In this situation where theres no telling just how many Goblins there are, it would be dangerous to take Sharon along. Besides, up until now, have you ever found Ein in the dayti?
Mu
After being told that, Kain certainly had no mories of doing that.
He could find her if he generally searched on top of the roofs if it was at night, but when it was dayti, he couldnt find her no matter where he searched. By so chance, she might be sleeping during that ti buteven if that were the case, just as Ys said, it seed like it would be difficult to find Ein during the day.
Quelia-senpai is also busy at this tiThen Jeffwould reject it, so NefasAh, thats right. Hes not in town right now. In that case.
Right, thats far enough. Even though this is valuable ti to be with , I wont allow you to waste it.
Clapping her hands with a *pan*, Ys forcibly put a stop to Kains thoughts.
To begin with, today is a date with , right? The idea of trying to bring in another woman is quite boorish.
A date you sayIts a Goblin extermination, you know?
Ara. Kain, every night, youre with Ein doing an Al-mogamoh
Kain hurriedly covered up Yss mouth as she was going to say Alva extermination date, and Ys bit down on that hand.
O, ouch!?
After quickly getting away from Kain who reflexively pulled his hand away, Ys looked at Kain with eyes as if she were looking at sothing pitiable.
And what might you be planning to do by covering up a maidens mouth during the day like this? I wont say that I hate the roughness of it, but you should think about the ti and place, you know?
I, I dont know if I should talk about how youve got it wrong, or about how you said sothing so outrageous so readilyBut you seriously bit , didnt you!? It hurts!
Ara ara, you sure do get along, dont you.
Laura was smiling with a grin. After Kain glared at her with teary eyes, Laura exaggeratingly backed away.
Oh my. Kain-kun is looking at even with scary eyes. What should I do, Ys-chan. To make him beco more well-mannered, should I just pull that off and turn him into Kain-chan? Ah, but, if I were to do that, then I guess Sharon-chan would start crying.
After making gestures of snapping and pulling sothing off, Laura said forget it, forget it and flappingly waved her hand.
The few n inside the Guild saw those gestures of Lauras, and their faces went pale.
Un. If you just report it to Seira or soone later, wouldnt they hang Kain up in the plaza?
Ara, what a good idea!
Please give a break
Having already lost the willpower to object, Kain helplessly leaned on the wall.
