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

"You're making a mistake."

Even Sylvia works.

There was no such thing as a demon coming from the side to intrude in the fight against Crystal Rhinos to profit the fishermen because she was guarding her surroundings to protect the Cullens.

Melissa and Iris were also active.

Noel was dodging all the attacks emitted by the electric deer, but if he dodged the attacks, some of them could reach the village. All such attacks were prevented by Melissa's defensive barriers.

Illis was also defeating a bear demon who was about to come out following the electric deer while the electric deer and Noel were fighting.

Noel, whose consciousness had not gone behind and far.

In that sense, I still couldn't get my pass score up, but I was able to fight a disaster-level demon against him, so I decided I could raise the extension.

"And I hear you saw an electric deer halfway through the woods."

"What's wrong with that?"

The students have already told me about the situation.

I heard it was a short walk into the woods. Three students and Karen found three electric deer. The electric deer that you see in the distance are looking down there like they're looking for something, and I don't see how they noticed the Karen's that were close.

They couldn't tell it was an electric deer because it was from a distance, but they definitely ran into a deer demon.

Having found the electric deer from afar, Karen chose to avoid contact with the demons and make a major detour to the back of the woods.

The choice itself is not a mistake.

But then the behavior was the problem.

"Pfft."

An electric deer child approaching Karen with a nostalgic voice.

The three electric deer that seemed far away were looking for children who had strayed from their families, or parts of the herd.

An electric deer of a child unfamiliar to me other than my family was rubbing against Karen to see if she smelled the woman.

"Out of the way."

For Karen, who was trying to avoid an encounter with an electric deer that looked far away, the presence of a child was only in the way. Most importantly, it would be a hassle if they screamed.

Karen had kicked her head and neck over and over again with her right foot while holding her mouth with her left foot to avoid being screamed when she kicked the electric deer child she was rubbing against her body.

Within dozens of kicks the child had stopped moving.

"No way -"

Lew, who was listening, apparently understood what Karen had done.

"The electric deer that attacked the village, but they just came to retaliate because humans killed their own children. Your cheap behavior took you out into the woods, not just the three of you, but even the village."

Without us, the village would surely have perished.

"As an adult, you have to take responsibility around here."

"Wow, I..."

Still can't give up. I hugged Crystal giggly.

"I'm going to the city with the money I got from selling this crystal."

"This guy...!

Lew had his head on Karen, who didn't see reality.

That's the same here. I didn't think I hadn't seen the situation so far.

"Do you really think that's possible?

"Huh?"

"You will never succeed"

Sylvia, standing silently behind me, had her tight gaze pointed at Karen.

"I think if you sell that crystal, it will be for a few gold coins. But it is likely that you will only get less than half the amount because you will be seen at your feet without a handover to the seller or something like that. Looks like you're living with that amount of gold, you'll quickly roll into a life of debt pickling. The end of the road awaits you in debt."

Slaves, the tragic end of.

It may take into account some circumstances, but in Karen's case, it's a debt due to the fact that he was playing fancy.

Naturally, you can say that treatment sucks after being enslaved.

You look good there, so you're likely to be crushed as a whore.

"And it's hard for you to even work if you're trying to save your life and you don't have any skills. Naturally, if you don't have an income..."

Even in that case, debt hell awaits.

Either way, we're only waiting for a tragic end in Karen right now.

Even I have a proven track record of working out as a soldier, so I was able to make up my mind to go to the city and be an adventurer.

However, it is difficult to even get a job in Karen, who has no skills whatsoever.

"Hmm! I'll let you crawl up in that situation."

It seemed like Sylvia didn't understand it even though she explained it politely.

You should give him a real example here.

"Hey, what do you think happened to your father?

"You work as a slave, as a mine, don't you?

I knew I didn't know anything.

No, I didn't know until just before, either, but Melissa told me I was doing a good research.

"The former mayor died over a year ago."

"Huh..."

I was frightened to hear that my own father was dead.

"He couldn't stand the harsh working environment of the mine if it was that guy's body"

"Oh, no..."

"Got it? Being a slave is so harsh!

……

Karen seemed to expect a rise from slavery, like a story, but reality isn't sweet. It's a world where even the village chief, who was in power in the village, would easily die.

At the end of the day, I can predict the sight of being dumped in an alley like garbage.

"Wait for me"

Lew disappears into the back of the house.

Two skin bags were gripped when I came right back.

Ten pieces of gold came out of it when I spread the contents of one leather bag on the table.

"It's the money I've accumulated since I became village chief."

"Hey! If you have that kind of money..."

"Give me this gold and the crystal Karen picked up. So I want you to forgive me."

As for this one, if you get paid, that's fine.

And now I want you to reflect on not doing the same thing.

"Why would you do that? For you, Karen's got to be on her feet."

"Simply because this guy is my wife."

"Is that all?

"... my promise to my mother-in-law"

It's the first time I've noticed it since they told me.

I can't see Karen's mother anywhere she's supposed to be.

"He died ill after the former mayor was captured."

"Right."

I don't think anything about being told that he died because he wasn't particularly close to me.

Also, I don't feel guilty for being told that the former village chief was caught for a reason. Interpretation is someone with only that degree of connection.

"My mother-in-law was the one who kept coming to see me working beside people who were village chiefs even with such scumbags, so she helped me get confused knowing a lot and not knowing anything. You entrusted Karen to me when someone like that died. I can't abandon Karen for that guy."

"Okay."

I kind of get that kind of situation.

I've moved a lot for my family, too.

Collect the crystal fragments that Lew took from Karen and let me take them with the gold coins.

Now some good faith should have been established.

"Oh, you're back."

All the adventurer party leaders were assembling when they came back to the house they were letting us use in the village.

"Is this a meeting?

"That's right. You're our stapler. We need to communicate the decision on the part of the school that received this one."

Ask Mr. Craig about the decision on the school side.

"Schools that looked heavily at the forest threat ceased exploring the forest during extracurricular classes. For the next three days, we were supposed to work in the fields without going into the woods."

"That would be easy."

"Neither did we think there were demons in the woods like electric deer or crystalline rhinos. Unfortunately, we're not strong enough to defeat you alone. So let me agree with you."

Exploring the woods and not changing the rewards of adventurers.

You shouldn't even have to go into the woods.

"Then you won't have any trouble from now on, either."

All you have to do is digest three days later.

- That's when I thought about it.

"It's an emergency!

A reading came from the nucleus of the labyrinth.

Besides, it seems to be a real emergency based on how your voice looks.

"Ira's in labor!

"Ha!?
