On the African continent there is a vast desert known as the Lawrence Desert. The Lawrence Desert is so vast that four countries can do it. But it's easy to cross the border because of that, and there are also many places to hide.
Is that why this large band of bandits still continues to survive?
If you look up into the sky, you can see the red sun across the thin smoke.
Jizzy heat. Lighting back from the white sand. Near the sandy surface, Yurayura and vision are shaken by heat.
I feel as if I'm standing on a frying pan. I feel like a fish being roasted in a burner from above.
But even if we're in a seared state of fish now, we have to taste the food mood put in the freezer on a desert night.
This is why life in the desert is tough. You burn your skin during the day. It's so hot, it's freezing cold like you're touching ice at night.
Due to the magnitude of its warmth difference, rock skin turns to weather and sand, which is another factor shaping the desert. I just hope I'm not a factor in this.
But not all rocks have weathered and disappeared. Weathering and natural phenomena that occur over time. It doesn't change with sand any time soon.
There are still a number of large rocks left in the desert.
"This is where we live."
I had now been guided to Luxeria by the home of "Snake Poison" - Azito. It was like a cave made of big rocks.
There are bandits on the lookout around Azit and they don't seem to be on constant alert. Not a gun, but a watch with a weapon in your hand and the presence of a rock erected with Don on the desert. At first sight, the word fortress comes to mind.
Around Azit were other isolated and unbridled places where sand connected far away and floated in desert waters separated from the rest, as if they were isolated islands separated from land.
Even if the ship comes, it will be intercepted soon.
This place is a hidden aside from the public.
"Are you sure? Without a blood contract?
That's what I asked Luxeria as she led me through Azito. Because I hadn't signed a blood contract with Luxeria yet.
You don't think if I run away on this spot right now, I'll expose Azit's place? Or are you confident you won't miss it?
I don't mind either, but as far as I'm concerned about the blood contract, I just wanted you to be clear whether you would or wouldn't.
"I don't mind. Ray... I'm sure my husband wouldn't do that."
"Hey, why did you say that again?
Husband? It itches. You're not old enough to call me that.
"I'm the dealer. I don't have the nerve to call you out because you're a kid."
"Isn't that okay with Mr. Ray there?
"It tasted like a bandit."
I don't need that taste...
Well, it's disgusting to have someone far older than me say Mr. Ray, and shall we compromise here?
I'm used to being named. One of these days you won't mind.
"Sir, this is my husband's room. I will treat my husband as a guest here. Basically, you can do whatever your husband wants."
"Your husband, isn't he just trying to say?
Seeing with a frightened look because there were so many 'husbands', Luxeria admitted with her thumb and index finger slightly open.
"... a little"
"Ha... I don't mind calling you that, but suppress me from now on, okay?
I sighed briefly at Luxeria, who whispered in a lower voice, a little hesitant. I seem to have to endure this itchy feeling for a while.
"Let's do good. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to hear from my men."
I thought of him as I looked at Luxeria's back as she left.
Camouflaged with outfits and bossy heads, but he doesn't seem like a very ordinary bandit. I also feel like I'm having a bandit scene somewhere, and most importantly, the atmosphere was different from the other bandits who were crude.
So I was very concerned about him.
Jianmae wants to keep an eye on the children's future. But the real deal followed because I got interested in him.
Luxeria is very strong. That's both spiritual and physical.
So I wanted to see him. Why is he bandit? And I wanted to know what you were waving your sword for. To make my decision.
"But, well, it's important before you build it,"
With all that whining, I left my room behind.
"What do you say? You think you can do it here?
I was as bright as I could and talked to the kids I was brought with me.
I hear the boys of these kids were brought from the Eurasian continent, just like me. The two remaining girls come from the Empire. I heard on the road from the bandits who captured them where they had been grabbing them, but they were all falling apart.
I guess the parents are looking for it with blood eyes by now. When I thought about it, I felt like I was doing something wrong.
What would Charstena say?
I must say I'll give you a lift.
But, okay? So...
I still didn't feel like taking these kids home. At the same time, I felt sorry for the matter.
"I don't know."
To my inquiry, the boy who answered first when choosing whether to be a bandit answered on his behalf.
This boy's name says Ghoul. It's a name that's going to zombie in the future, but it's the opposite of imaginary with an active blonde boy.
I also heard the other three names on their way here. Of the three, the boy's name is Keith. Keith hides his eyes with black hair and feels dark. He's also the last boy to reach out to my magic, a little odd.
The two remaining girls seem to be sisters. Looks like we got caught sisters friendly. The parents will be concerned.
The names of these sisters are Sola and Norlu, respectively. Sora is my sister and Norlu is my sister. The opposite is true of what I saw, but I would also have a position as a sister. Let's stop jiggling at your height.
"Well, you don't know just the first day"
What is Luxeria going to do with these kids?
I know you're not the type to say unscrupulous like suddenly letting bandits run their businesses, but I guess that's what you're going to do eventually.
What are we going to do until then?
"... I'll have to ask you in person. Well, I come back sometimes to see things, so if the old bandits do something to me, you tell them. 'Cause I'm gonna harass you for acting plainly as a dealer."
"Yeah, I got it."
Ghoul, who is about to become the leader of this small group as soon as possible, nodded, smiling and waving again.
When I waved back to it, I wandered through Azito looking for Luxeria.
Inside Ajito it was in a very intricate shape. It was spread up, down, left and right, as if in an ant's nest. If I did it without darkness, I'd be lost.
"How dare you, well, this is all I've widened my hole"
Do you even have drilling skills?
Not very much, but not a job overnight. Perhaps the first thing the kids will remember is the structure of this hole.
That goes for me too...
"Do you want to make a map?"
I walk around Ajito with paper and pen in one hand. Again, spaces like this are hard to use. The whole picture is hard to grasp because of the rock.
I have to find Luxeria, and I decided to make a map with my own feet.
That's how you walk for an hour. The map is pretty close to completion. And then...
"Sir, were you here? I'm not in my room. I've been looking for you."
"Luxeria? Just fine. I've been looking for you too."
Looks like Luxeria was looking for me again. Maybe I needed something.
Are we talking about a deal?
"I thought I'd give this back. I'm sorry I left my dealer's things behind."
"You don't have to worry about that. But well, thank you."
I received the sword of an orga and took it out of my sheath and peeked at it.
When I saw this guy at the blacksmith, he was glowing thin blue. The gloss is now dim. Several small scratches appear to have overlapped the body and scattered light. I know very well when I gently stroke it with my fingers.
Again, this sword doesn't suit me.
It would be a matter of time. This sword also breaks. Also, we have to look for a replacement sword. No, now let's build a sturdy, not so easily broken sword.
If you take the S-grade material you will meet next time, you must be able to make a good sword. Find the best blacksmiths in the world when we get together to some extent.
I thanked Luxeria for putting my body in my sheath.
"Thank you. I always wore it, because I missed the lack of weight."
"No, I don't mind. Looks like a good sword inside from what I've seen. What are you using for the nucleus?
"It sounds like an orgasm. Well, it's not the material I got."
This sword was originally sold at a blacksmith in Gartham, where the militant tournament was held. Probably a sword I struck with a tuna I bought from the guild. It doesn't seem strong enough for a blacksmith old man who mistook me for a hippo man until that end.
"Is that an orga tuna? It's a good material that's easy to get around and not poor."
"Well, they're just hard because they're identities."
A wooden idol with a hardness special offer in a way. If you move fast with that, you can be sure of the S-grade designation. In fact, it's harder, and the quicker King Aug is S-grade.
It's a nasty opponent in a way, but from someone who can break its hardness, it can also be said to be an easy S-level. As far as I'm concerned, the illusion state of the genus cow is far more troublesome. Attribute deactivation almost deactivates magic. If you fail, there's a chance you won't win in Charstena.
No, but that state of angelization might not make it impossible. If cheats are that skill in a good place too, they're going to line up with Dick using enhancements other than limit breaking in full.
Wait a minute, okay?
Isn't she still the cheapest of us?
If I could use a limit breakthrough with that... I wouldn't lose. Sure.
Even though that spiritual magic and honesty are tedious, if they even collaborate on angelization and limit breaking, I'm bumpy, whether it's swords or magic.
I may be laid on my ass in the future. Because it seems physically soft, but I want to go in the direction of spiritual dislocation.
When I thought about my future with Charstena that way, I was drawn back to reality in Luxeria's words.
"Oh, it's like you've fought before."
"A few times. Because it wasn't unusual where I lived. I guess there's always been one in every mountain."
There was a big outbreak at one time. I fought as hard as I wanted. Honestly, I'm already used to it.
"Right, well, right. It's not unusual to be such a desert demon. I've never met..."
"Really? I heard that if you go under the Afroto continent, some land is pretty rich, huh?
Auga prefers mountains. If there is a mountain, I will live on my own. So it seems like it could be anywhere in the green...
"I don't really want to get under the continent. I don't really leave the desert myself. For once, you can't leave Ajito much as a leader."
"Hmm."
I replied with my nose.
The mouth now sounds like you're reaching under the continent as well. Besides, can't a leader leave Ajito for long...
Hit me...
"Is' Snake Poison 'a pretty big bunch of bandits? There doesn't seem to be 200 people here..."
"About 1,500 people? Those who are not here are sending them all over the continent. The desert is perfect for hiding itself, but there are limits to the income you can earn here."
1500…… ⁉
The Big Bandits...!
Whoa, is Luxeria its leader?
I'm pretty fucked up right now, aren't I?
"Don't be so vigilant. My husband is the dealer. I won't force you to take it. I'm not offering you anything, either. You're the best dealer. Until my husband is satisfied, I will guarantee his safety."
"Oh, wow."
The only thing that freaked me out was what I would do if the guild found out about this, but I think Luxeria got it a little wrong. I'm also ashamed to tell you why I'm freaking out, so let's just leave it like this.
Please, God, Dragon God, Fairy God, may my deeds not be found out......!
"By the way, I needed some help with Luxeria too..."
"Let's hear it. Are we talking about a deal?
Luxeria let the light shine in her eyes. Eyes like a child I expect to see what I get.
But we'll talk about the deal another time. Now I want to ask you something first.
"No, I was wondering what would happen to those kids brought in with me."
"What, are you talking about that? I don't treat it underneath. They're already one of us, family. Until I grow up, let me train and get my knowledge."
Luxeria looked miserable tomorrow. But he taught me well how to handle the kids. I was comfortable with that answer, too.
Luxeria wouldn't make a mistake leaving it to you. I don't really trust the others, but this guy will be fine.
"Right. Then I have nothing to say. When you're free, maybe I'll teach them something, but you don't mind that, do you?
"Oh. Kids don't mind me playing with each other when they don't have a job. I've never played with any of my friends before. I can't tell you that."
"Luxeria's a pretty pathetic childhood guy? Are you being bullied?
"Right...... I just think it wasn't my busy childhood"
Luxeria seemed to be transferring something she didn't want to recall much to both its cloudy eyes.
A week has passed since I became a dealer for bandits. In the meantime, he made several donations in the name of a deal. In addition to the first sword I gave him, he provided food, protective equipment, household goods, etc.
At this point, let's be honest.
The storage space is already full of crap. It's as dry as a side of the desert around here.
The rest is in vain. My castle, with a few demonic stones and materials. All we have to do is minimal food and drinks.
And now I have no sentence.
This is not good. If you don't work...
So I decided to go back to the city. When you tell Luxeria about it,
"Then I want you to buy me what I need"
That. The money was also given. Probably something I took from you...
The trip was sent to Luxeria and she asked me to pick her up on her way home. The desert has no landmarks, and for those who are unfamiliar, they do not know where they are.
You either drown or freeze to death if you wander around looking for Ajito in that.
I put myself in a good position as a dealer and let my demands go through.
That's how I came back to Port Town. As soon as we get to the city, we head to the guild. And in an attempt to get the small gold first, I sold demon stones and materials before the request.
Then...
"This will be 186,000 ruts of the purchase amount. Check it out."
"Yes, indeed"
I received the money and tried to leave the place. But the Alliance clerk's sister grabbed one hand and stopped him.
"Please wait a moment!
"What? What is it?
No way...... did you find out?
I'm dealing with a bandit.
"Your name must be Master Ray, isn't it?
"Yes, sir"
"The Alliance Master will see you. Please come this way."
Whoa, whoa, I'm getting a bad feeling about this. Run away?
No, then it's like stopping being an adventurer yourself.
What, you don't have a good hand?
Tong tong tong tong tong............ Cheen!
That's right.
I flashed. Perfect excuse.
I was caught by a bandit. Another bandit attacked me when I was about to be sold as a slave. But for some reason, the bandits are asking us to let them go and join them. Poor children who had been caught besides me shook their heads at the demands.
I wanted to get away with it, too, but a lot of people were passive. I decided to take the kids away one day and make demands.
And I found out that I was an adventurer, and I came to the guild to return one demon stone to the gold.
Let's say...
If they ask me where Ajito is, I get a blood contract and I can't talk to him. Even if they follow the trail, they die. Let me make an excuse for you to remain silent on becoming a bandit until I recapture the children.
Come on, please, actor. It all depends on you.
I got ready and walked into the Alliance Master's room.
"Are you the one who gets laid?
"Yes."
The Alliance Master was an old old woman. The skin of Yobo Yobo is not very strong, but it does not look strong. But the Alliance Master can only be the once named Adventurer. I'm pretty sure this guy is a doer, too.
"I'll play guild master here, Ramshell. They call me Lamb Woman."
It's Ray.
"Know"
I'll take it!
You just said it because you thought it might be an occasion to name it for once. I hate this old lady.
"I thought I'd get to the point quickly. To you..."
Thank you.
Actor, please...!
"Rewards are being sent by the Imperial nobleman Maresia Hulkath"
"I was asleep that day. Yeah, stay alert... what now?
"What are you talking about?
……………………
"I see! You got a thank you from Maresia! Huh? Why?
I flushed it. This heavy and painful silence.
"You, you defeated a mutant species on the Eurasian continent, didn't you? How dare you, as a child, take him down?"
"Ah, that illusion."
I said thank you. It's a discipline. But now let's thank you. I want the money soon.
"And how much is the reward?
"The reward for the mutant crusade is 20 million."
Oh? Are you going back to being rich again?
"And the reward is increased by the reward and contribution of your Kraken crusade."
I forgot all about it. No, I didn't get paid. I haven't stopped by the guild lately.
"That reward is 25 million. In addition, 15 million dollars have been rewarded by Maresia Huelkas' father for saving her life. At least 60 million."
Apparently, I'm destined not to be poor.
"And I have a message from Lady Maresia and her sister, Lady Lucy."
I don't want to hear it...... I mean, why even from Lucy?
"'Just the two of us... and don't you? I'll be waiting in Imperial City ♡'"
"Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop."
Don't say that Yobo Yobo's grandmother is too surreal... heh!
Next to my sad scream like that, an official was nauseating.
"Ohh."
"You're out of pay this month, aren't you?
"Ahhh! I'm in a hurry! Master, excuse me!
The staff rushed out of the room.
I know how you feel. The more it hurts. No, the more I'm going to throw up.
"And that's not the end of the reward story. Put your reward on the Lord's card."
"Oh.................. oeh"
"You're gonna get paid less, too, right?
Lady Lamb tried to get back to the conversation, but I couldn't switch so easily, I nauseated. Then the narrowed gaze of the Lamb woman pierced, as did the official earlier.
"Ha... excuse me because I'm in a hurry"
The requirements are over, and I've decided to disperse early. Run but win at times like this. Let's add to the motto. But Lam didn't let me get away with it this time.
"Wait."
"Hey, what is it?
I give back my heel, freaking out again.
I don't mind cutting the reward, so please forgive me for removing you under Gilmouth authority. I hope you don't lower your rank either.
Such a fright on me. Lam raised her mouth horn and held it up.
"I have a job for you."
- Request a nomination.
Request for nomination from Gilmouth. That's an unknown difficulty, rank irrelevant superpower request.
That's what adventurers commonly call it.
Masters Quest and.
