Dungeon Master Makeup Money (formerly known as Dungeon Master Funding)

"Well, I was an adventurer, so why don't you tell me why you were bandits?"

"I don't mind answering, but would it be nice if they were present?"

Janice's eyes are on me and Ira.

"No problem. They're the ones who did this.The Lord has given me permission. "

I see.

Answer that you don't seem interested.

Perhaps the accurate grasp of the current situation has really made me even better.

"It was about five days ago.I went back to town hunting monsters, and I was drinking at a tavern. "

I was healing with pleasure after finishing my request with a small reward.

However, the only words that come out while drinking since the day the Gardis Empire perished are dissatisfaction with the status quo.

It helps my country.

It is a great pleasure in itself, but in some ways it only appears to be exploited by the Glenvarga Empire.It doesn't make me feel good that our earners are treated like that.

I was complaining while drinking that day.

"Excuse me. Can I have a neighbor?"

Hmm?

No woman, no matter how beautiful she is, is drunk enough to get close to her.

But the man sat next to Janice.

"What's wrong with a beautiful woman with that face?"

"Nothing... I just wondered how long this life would last."

There are no friends near Janice.Everyone was afraid of getting caught up in her drunk.

"I know what you're saying."

Really?

"Ah. I used to do magic research at the behest of the state, but its accomplishments also made it meaningless to the end of the country.The magic I've been studying is not for battle, so I'm not welcome in the Gardis Empire today. "

Wizards are treasured in the demon crusade.

However, magic, which is not an easy-to-understand use, has become smoke-free.I can't afford that much.

"Well... it will take at least a hundred years for the Gardis Empire to regain what it was a few years ago"

"That much!?"

"Of course, it was when I thought about the whole country.Reconstruction may end a little sooner, just in the south and centre. "

Still, it takes decades.

"That's not true...!"

"Life like this will last until the next generation."

In fact, the Glenvarga Empire was acting with that intention.

The emperor, Rio, also intended to solve major problems while he was the emperor and allow Gardill to make a moderate recovery.

Ultimately, we will also need the commitment of the next generation and beyond, but I think it is Gardill's job to think about what kind of problems we will entrust to the next generation, so I will do nothing.

I don't know what is needed until then.All Rio has to do is nurture Gardill so he can make the right decisions.

But it has nothing to do with the people of the Gardis Empire, the parties.

"I think it has to stay that way."

"Sure, I don't like being exploited like this."

I want to do something about it.

However, I don't know exactly what kind of action to take.

"It's a simple story. Take back what we've been robbed of."

"What are you saying....."

"There are still craftsmen who can process monster materials in places like the Gardis Empire.However, a valuable part of the monster material you hunted has been transported to the Glenvarga Empire.They're going to monopolize the profits for themselves. "

It is true that valuable parts are being transported to the Glenvarga Empire as a matter of priority.

However, we pay the price properly with materials and food.It's just preferential, not exploitative.

"Ha...!"

But Janice, a mere adventurer, does not know such circumstances.

We just knew because Rio told us a lot of information.

Those who do not know the truth cannot discern that they are liars even if they are told falsehood.It would be superfluous if that were a convenient fact for us.

"Aren't you going to get it back?Aren't you sorry? "

"You're not sorry!"

Janice stood up in response to the man's words.

"Then do what you can."

"What can we do?"

"As an adventurer, I suppose you've taken on an escort.Then you understand the human mind that protects you. "

"... are you telling us to take it away?"

"That's what 'getting it back' means."

"Get it back....."

So Janice made up her mind.

Even if it was a decision backed by others, it was Janice who made the decision.

"Is that...?"

I learned that the sight in front of me glued because I was drunk.

"How long does it take you to take an A-Rank Adventurer?"

"You...."

My buddies are worried and watch the tavern.

But they all fell down drunk.

"What did you do...?"

It's impossible to get drunk after a little drinking.

"You don't have to worry about anything.Just keep moving instinctively. "

Janice saw a seal on the man's hand just before he lost consciousness.



"This is the best I've ever known."

I see.

I was able to grasp everything.

It is possible that the bandits who were violent before were behind Janice's sights.I don't think it has anything to do with the seal I had just before I fainted.

"I was instigated, but then I stopped hesitating to take someone else's belongings."

"What about now?"

"It probably has something to do with being in a place like this, but there's no dust in it.I don't even know why I was thinking about that back then. "

I see.

Janice has lost consciousness of the robbery because Melissa forced her to crush Slave Magic .

From what I saw, it seems that there are no sequelae or effects now, and I was relieved for the time being.

"I am also reflecting. I can't get my life back, but I want it back because it's stored in a cave that I left aside."

"Where is Ajito?"

Janice, who truly regrets it, tells me so easily that he can applaud.

It's a bit far from here, but it's a place you can reach in a few minutes if you run with all your might.It seems that there is only a minimum of voicemail in Asia, and I am worried that no one will come back and take strange actions.

"I'm going with my people to Asia."

"Please."

With Mr Vargas's permission, I can easily get there.

"Please, just make it up to me."

"... something seems to be wrong.All that treasure belongs to us. "

"What about it?"

Tell them that all the treasure taken by the bandits we crushed in accepting the request is our property.

Since it contains treasures, you may definitely want to return them, but you will need to negotiate separately at that time.

Janice and the others have no ownership.

You can't make amends for things you don't own.

"Hey...."

"You were close to brainwashing.I don't know what the lords think of it.So if you're going to make amends, you're going to do it on your own. "

"Ah, ahh...."

She was an adventurer a while ago.

So I understand how important the contract in the request is.

"Ira"

What?

"Take me to Asia, where I've been taught to go except Melissa."

"It's good to go, but what are you two gonna do?"

"Prepare for a massive hunt."
