Anju (Female) left Eldoria to return to the Empire, as it was her break time.
Upon informing the male hero slave about the tournament at the mansion, he seemed unusually happy for some reason.
“Perhaps I should have trained these two in the dungeon as well.”
Then, the slave hero took only Nastasia and everyone headed to Asrik.
Incidentally, for travel between the mansion and Asrik, magic circles have been set up in the castle there, so we no longer need to take out carriages from the Item Box one by one.
“Alright, class, let’s continue the lesson~”
“Have a good day.”
“We’ll continue the talk about not getting into debt~”
They’re having that kind of lesson, I’m glad I let them go.
And with that, Anju (Female) departed. She’s supposed to come back in the evening with “that child.”
“Welcome back, Master. If you have any requests, please tell me anything…”
“I’m going to the Adventurer Guild. Please help with the moving in the meantime.”
“Understood.”
I casually brushed aside the butler and headed to the Adventurer Guild for Foreigners.
For some reason, I was led to the Guild Master’s Room where Nakichi (Female) and the gloomy person with glasses were present.
“Are these two on good terms?”
For now, Nina (Female) and I explained the events up to this point.
“I see, but you should have been able to enter the Lizardman village with the letter I gave you.”
“Ah, I was suddenly approached by a Lizardman outside, I’d forgotten.”
“But judging by the tone of that conversation, even if they let you in with the letter, they didn’t seem like they would accept your request.”
Nakichi (Female) crossed her arms and pondered my words.
She has strong arms for an Elf, though not as strong as Nina’s, of course!
“From now on, I’ll leave that to Nina Starlights.”
“That might be faster. My apologies, Lord Nakichi.”
“…Regarding that, even with the Empire-sanctioned Adventurer Guild on our side, their attitude would likely be the same.”
Xel also seemed to have grasped the situation here quickly.
It’s good that I don’t have to go through the trouble of squeezing the former Guild Master for information. Although, I might have already done so.
“I wonder what kind of cleaning they’re making him do now.”
“So Nina, changing the subject, about the Gas Magic Stone…”
“Ah, I easily got one from a treasure chest. Though it’s just one so far.”
“Unfortunately, obtaining them from treasure chests is extremely rare. They rarely appear even on the lower floors.”
Then how did Hero Houkra get such a large amount?!
“Can you not tell me how to obtain them in large quantities?”
“Well, I have a general idea of the form it takes, perhaps I should ask.”
“A message through the Adventurer Guild. That would be the fastest way.”
Nina (Female) says so, but
I kind of want to try and figure it out myself.
Besides, even if I paid a high price in gold coins to ask, there’s no guarantee they’d tell me.
“It seems like Houkra would be fine, though.”
“Any hints from Lord Nakichi?”
“Let’s just say there are multiple methods.”
“Understood. If we put our minds to it, we’ll find the answer. That’s enough, thank you.”
With that, I feel like our brains,
Clarice, will be able to figure out the answer.
“I shouldn’t just rely on others, I need to think too.”
“…Excuse me, is it alright?”
“What is it, Lord Xel? Have you figured out how to obtain them?”
“…No, this is a different matter. There’s news from the Imperial Capital’s Adventurer Guild.”
What is it? I have a bad feeling about this.
“What happened?”
“…Well, it’s not so much what happened, but what’s about to happen.
If things go well, as early as tonight. Streina, the Sub Guild Master, will be coming here.”
The old hag is coming?!
“Does she have business with us?”
“…That’s the only reason, isn’t it? She wants to apologize for her rudeness.”
“Deles, what should we do? Meet her?”
She probably wants to draw us into the Empire’s side.
“She’s finally coming here instead of summoning us.
Don’t you think we should at least meet her?”
“Understood. If Deles says so, then we will.”
“…Thank you. Streina will surely be pleased.”
I hope we can reason with her.
Nakichi (Female) brought the conversation back.
“So Nina, what are we doing today? The Lizardman village?”
“That’s for the evening. For now, it’s the Death Dungeon. We’ll train Nastasia.”
“I see. Make sure not to let her die.”
Alright, let’s quickly and easily
get Nastasia to Level 50.
“If they break through the 11% chance, what kind of Hero will they become?!”
A Hero Sage, Hero Tamer, or Hero Illusionist or Hero Summoner would be amazing.
“Just not a Hero Chikuwadaimyojin!!”
Thus, we had Nastasia put on the Fairy Ring and moved to the Death Dungeon, which is overflowing with delicious EXP-giving Shadow-types, by being carried by a Succubus. It’s easy, but we’re quite conspicuous.
“I also need to deduce a way to obtain Gas Magic Stones in large quantities. Let’s see.”
But if I think too hard about it,
I might get absorbed by a Shadow, so I need to be careful.
“Um, Lord Deles.”
“Yes, Clarice. Have you thought of something already?”
“Is it really impossible to Taming Shadows?”
Perhaps we should try that.
