We headed to the market where our client was, carrying a big fish magic trout.
As we gathered the gaze of the people on the road and approached the outhouse lined with fish in crates, the man who made the request welcomed us with a surprised look.
"Ooh!? That's a lot of fishing! Wow, how did you take it so much?!?"
"Ha... In the meantime, is the number okay?"
"It's okay. It's more than that! I can accommodate your request!! Thank you so much!!"
Grateful and a little lighted, I lower the cage.
The store owner quickly gives us the reward for the success of the request while cooling down the magic trout with ice, etc.
"No, I was a little worried when I heard about your new adventurer, but I'm relieved."
"Coincidentally, my magic just helped."
"Still, it's rare for a magic trout to take so much in one go. Can I count on you guys in the future?"
Does that mean you'll nominate us when you make the request?
I don't know... I feel like I've earned the trust of others, don't get me happy.
To me and Reefa, who nodded pleasantly, the shopkeeper laughed happily, taking out the ice packed crate like he had come up with something and stuffing it with a fish different from the magic trout.
"Look, take it"
The shopkeeper, looking back, offered me a fish that was all over the crate.
I felt Reefa and Schiff's eyes shine, but you can't just have them.
"Uh, no, I'm sorry. We also charge a request fee."
"A good job deserves a reward. He asked me for a few days in a day."
"But..."
"Besides, we're going to have a long relationship. Get it!"
That's what I said and they gave it to me so I could push it half way.
Somehow, it seems that interacting with people in these areas is also an adventurer's flair.
Then, after asking them to put the magic trout in the same box, we walk back to the inn.
"Fish, you got it"
"There's a lot of them, so let's split them."
Still, I got so much more than I have.
I laugh bitterly at the superior Reefa. [M]
"Adventurer. Glad to be."
"Hmm?"
"At first I thought I'd just go in to find a believable companion, but now I enjoy this routine"
"... I feel the same way."
Honestly, I was feeling all anxious, but as I desperately lived here, it gradually turned into fun, too.
I could never get this far on my own.
Schiff, Lime, and all sorts of people helped me get this far.
"So thank you. Kite."
"Reefa......"
"I've only been thinking about stopping my sister, so I owe it to Kate to be able to do this now"
So she smiled, and after I was taken aback, I smiled.
"You don't have to thank me that much."
"Yeah, so is that."
"Hey, I knew you'd owe me more."
"Yikes, Yikes ~"
Pick both cheeks of Reefa, who gives instant palm returns.
A month and a half after we combined - we lived well as adventurers.

When I brought back magic trout and other fish, I could rarely see Mr. Merck's surprised face.
I was just a little happy that I could do something surprising to her, who always bakes her care on the rare face.
As far as Lyla is concerned, she was so surprised that she lost her hips that she was very satisfied with me.
After that, we washed and dressed ourselves in each room, and we were moving to the dining room.
"There you go."
Carried in a blurry voice were cooked magic trout and salted white fish.
Depressed greasy body and tongue drums for careful flavoring.
"I didn't particularly like fish dishes, but you liked them today..."
Trout is... salmon? No. Mass? I don't even know where it is, but this is delicious again anyway.
The beautifully grated body uses a little spice and citrus fruit juice, as well as buttery smooth-flavoured oil, and the flavor spreads throughout the moment I put it in my mouth.
"Ugh, I can cry about this from my requested fucking mobile food. Thank you, Kate, Reefa...!"
"You don't have to be so happy to cry about anything..."
Lyla, sitting in front of me, was crying on her way home from work.
Something tells me he had been asked to do something like stakeout to bring out the demons, and he couldn't even set fire to it, and he was finishing a few days with mobile food.
"Cu......"
"No. No, you can't. Lyme, this is mine."
"... cu"
"Oh, hey, it's just a little bit. Just a little..."
And at his feet, the figure of Schiff, who shares the fish in the lime staring jiggly.
With a bitter smile at the way it is, I will transfer the fish fillets on my plate to his plate.
Lyme doesn't need a meal, but should we prepare this kid's share now? Hakuro... it doesn't really matter if the meal is in me.
Somehow, I feel that way.
"When it comes to kite, you can eat all you want fish...!?"
"Hey, neighbor eater. What a disturbing thing to whine about"
"It's not disturbing. Excuse me."
"Why am I blamed more?"
Huh? Right now, the reason the cat is following a human has popped out of this kid's mouth.
Momogu eats fish and drops his shoulder on Reefa, who was whining about that.
Mr. Merck... is turning his back on this one in the kitchen and eating the dishes put on a plate in his hand.
"I'm glad you're all happy."
It was an unexpected thing to take a lot of fish, but it turned out to lead me in the right direction.
As time passed with that in mind, the story moved on today about the blue dragon we encountered on the lake.
"Was that lake a dragon? It's true, Mr. Kite."
"Um, I saw it with these eyes, too. It was a blue, long torso dragon."
When I hear about the dragon, Lyla gives me a surprise look.
Wasn't there a dragon in that lake? Then what is that?
"That's crazy. When it comes to dragons, the guild is the first species to certify danger... I have a dragon over there, too. I don't know..."
"Didn't you get mixed up?"
"Hmmm... it's near a city with lots of people, so there's definitely got to be an investigation in there..."
Lila twisting her head.
Does the investigation mean that the dragon wasn't in the lake?
Then from where...,
"He must be Feelyhelt."
Our gaze gathers on Mr. Merck, who said so.
She elbows as she leans back to the kitchen counter.
"A dragon swimming from water to water, a monster or not, is also suspicious. Some regions are called dragons that foreshadow natural disasters and are lucky. Because of its characteristics, it matches the dragon you met."
"Is that a rare dragon?"
"Nothing unusual, not even a precedent touched by humans, is there a legend?"
"Huh?"
So, I was chewed up by the existence of such a legend without my knowledge...?
"I've seen it a couple of times, but, well, if it's just a human being getting close, it must exist. Besides, as long as we have water and air, it's impossible to catch them on the move anywhere."
"I see... so I couldn't feel the sign of the demon because the one wasn't the demon itself? … if so, is it natural to think of it as more than that"
Schiff is whining about something, but now he's thrilled.
It feels so effortless, I'm surprised I ran into a legendary being.
"Oh, I'm glad. Ferrihelt is friendly to people of good will."
"Is that right...?"
"But you better not let the troublemakers know that. Worst case scenario, they use it as bait."
"Yes..."
Certainly not strange to be used that way.
As I honestly listened to Mr. Merck's advice, I wondered how she was so knowledgeable.
Still, I only recognize that Mr. Merck is a good cook and that his attitude is kind to his back.
Really, who is this guy?
