The next morning, just me and Melissa visit the Adventurer Guild.

The goal is to receive the reward of crusading a giant sea demon.

They brought Melissa and me as leaders because they didn't have to go all the way if they just received the reward. The other three are guided by the family escort who brought them here.

Gather the gaze of those who were in the Alliance the moment you entered the Adventurer Alliance.

"You've only been here a few days and you've become famous."

"I have no choice. If we hadn't come to Savona, the city would have been doomed not too late."

That's all the giant sea demons were helpless opponents for them.

We crusaded after less than a week of such opponents.

I can't help but get noticed.

"I've been waiting"

Jeffrey, the guild master, comes down from the second floor of the guild.

"Do you know what to do?

"You're getting paid."

"Of course."

Jeffrey will guide you to the Guildmaster's office on the third floor.

Although it is normal for the requested rewards to be exchanged at the counter located on the ground floor, the rooms located on the upper floor may be used in cases where the reward amounts are high or in cases of special requests that want to be kept confidential, as in this case.

Among other things, the Guildmaster's office is used only when it is truly special.

"Call me."

Sit on the couch that was inside the office.

I've been in the Alliance Master's room several times before, but the sofa sits best among them. After all, they have to be careful from places like this when they have a lot of opportunities to deal with nobility or something.

"Let's start with the most important business."

Place the case already prepared on the table.

Some of the cases opened were packed tightly with gold coins.

"1,000 gold coins for a successful crusade."

"Thank you"

Closes the case lid and falls into the toolbox (item box) that appears with the skill.

"Don't you have to count?

"No problem. An Adventurer's Guild would reluctantly give less reward for something like this - there's no way they could have done anything to undermine their credibility."

"Naturally."

The reward amount was low.

Only then will the Adventurer Alliance lose all credibility at once.

But it doesn't mean I totally trusted you.

"Yeah. You can rest assured I have 1,000 proper gold coins."

I was letting the labyrinth nucleus count.

It's quicker and more accurate to let the labyrinth nucleus count than I count one at a time. Even if there was a fake mix with it, they would notice instantly.

"After all, did you have storage skills"

"Again?"

"I was wondering how you guys were going to crusade the giant sea demon, so I was making you do a lot of research."

Of course, I was aware that they were being watched from afar.

So when I let out the submarine, I was projecting a phantom, and when I went offshore by boat, I was just trying to look like I was taking a woman from the top of the ocean and watching.

Still, fighting on a submarine was not something that could be hidden through.

"Sightings have been received from many of the adventurers who were wary of the sea by boat. There is a submarine that suddenly surfaced to sea level. From what I've looked at here, it didn't look like you guys owned a submarine, and we don't handle submarines like that in Savona."

I skillfully removed an unseen submarine from it, I decided.

It's certainly not wrong, but it's also not accurate.

"As you say, I have storage skills. Is that it?

"No, even guild masters are strictly forbidden to ask adventurers about the skills they have. I don't want to be hostile to someone as powerful as you guys. I simply wanted to invite you to work under an exclusive contract in Savona if you have convenient transport skills."

Solicitation.

Although a large quantity of goods can be transported by ship, the resort consumes a variety of supplies as it does every day. It is not surprising that the existence of skills that would reduce the burden of transport at all if such a place were to be treasured.

"I refuse"

"Rewards are given to the extent possible. Still can't do it?"

"We like Alistair. I've decided to relax in Alistair rather than be used as a haulier here."

Besides, I'm not having trouble with the money.

My heart never moves where I get paid how much.

"Okay, okay."

Jeffrey pulls back lightly.

"You give up a lot easier."

"Like I said, I don't want to antagonize you guys. I just didn't want to buy your misfortune because I couldn't."

There doesn't seem to be any particular problem.

But Melissa wasn't entirely convinced.

"You said you were putting us under surveillance earlier, but how far do you know?

"I don't know that much about it. But where did you get a magic tool submarine or a powerful fishing rod from... so much to worry about."

No matter how much you care, you're not going to tell me.

That's why I have to ask you to give up.

"We still have the most important reward."

"... did I give you the crusade reward?

I did get what I promised from the beginning.

But I don't get any extra rewards.

"You asked for a 'free invitation to the resort' after you first caught the giant sea demon"

"Oh......!

Jeffrey was remembering.

As far as I'm concerned, this one was more important, but he totally forgot, or he didn't take it seriously as a joke.

My sisters would be more comfortable playing with me anyway, as they were able to get a free invitation for a reward than I would pay for my stay in inviting my family.

"You want that one too?

"Is there a problem?

"Looks like you made some rough money yesterday cooking with giant sea demon feet."

"You ended up making me 30 gold coins."

I could still afford to pay the cooks who helped me make the octopus 50 pieces of silver coin for the reward.

Plus I have a lot of stock.

I might as well behave to everyone when I get back to Alistair.

"I'm sorry. I wasn't ready. But if you give me my name, I'll let you arrange for me to play for free, so I want you to enjoy yourself."

"It's okay. I'm only staying for about a day today."

At night everyone is going home with a metastasis.

You can't be in a place that needs expensive stays like a resort for days.

"By the way, I mean a free invitation, how far would it be valid?

"... I'll take care of everything I've played with. That's why I want you to play in all the facilities at will."

"Thank you"

Don't forget to leave the room when Melissa takes the proper word for it.

The look on Mr. Jeffrey's face I saw before I left the room was tired. I can't handle the expenses of the Alliance until the reward that I was supposed to give you just for a personal favor, so I'm guessing you're really going to get it out of Mr. Jeffrey's pocket money.

The resort is really expensive.

Ten pieces of silver coins were requested per person just to enter the beach. There are other delicious dishes to eat, but the price is so high that it is not easy to pay for nearly ten people.

It's about the adventurer who asked for security to get in there for free, except for the people involved.

"Are you glad?

Ask Melissa when she leaves the office.

"No, I'm going to use a place that's hard to use with my own money because you're going to let me out."

I was motivated to be able to play with people's money.

"Actually, they have a steam bath that uses geothermal heat from the sandy beach."

He was usually Melissa, who wasn't that beauty bound, but he had a place to be concerned.

"Don't worry about the money. I wish you'd come."

If you really want to go, it's fine enough to pay for it.

"No, this kind of thing is fine because I go with the money I earn myself"

Mr. Jeffrey is supposed to be able to afford it, but that seems to be fine because he's going to be able to afford it as a reward for his giant sea demon crusade.

"All right, it's Savona's last day, and you want to play around"

"Yes."
