Lesson 10: Compensation for Request for Investigation

"... hmm? Didn't you mean to go to the 'island'?

The question of Chief Toros is best.

We weren't going to the island. That's also for two reasons.

One is that the reason we decided to visit Savona this time was to stay away from Alistair for a while and let us relax in tourist destinations accordingly. It's supposed to work the women being chased for chores and childcare, but it doesn't make sense to keep them busy putting in work.

The other thing is the reward for the request for an investigation. At one point, the Guildmaster introduced me to the 'Coral Pavilion', and the general told me that I could make the accommodation free. However, fewer than five A-rank adventurers are hired.

Therefore, I was going to pay for the accommodation and go home.

but the more I looked into the 'island', the more interest I got.

"The most wonderful thing is that there's a god on that island."

I was determined to listen to Sheikh Tolros.

Previously I have been relative to God due to various circumstances, but when I solved the case in which God was involved, I was able to get something useful for the labyrinth. Even if there was no reward, there was something in the land where God was.

I want to get that.

"I won't imitate too much, so I want you to give up what's on that island."

"I can't guarantee you there's something you want."

"That's impossible."

There's definitely something on the 'island' that drives someone who's already broken in.

It is possible that some things will not give way to the Theodore tribe either, but at that time they will even be asked to think of something else to reward.

There is definitely something to profit from.

"... fine. When I say sanctuary, there is no human being in the Theodore tribe today who knows what is in the sanctuary. You don't know what it's worth, so I'll give it to you, unless it's worth it."

"Thank you"

The conversation came together with the Theodore tribe.

Rewards are also available, so there was a reason to go to the 'island'. I'm sorry about Sylvia and her family, but I need you to come with me.

But that's not the end of it.

"Wait!

Jeffrey waited.

"Something?

"What are you going to do with our request? There's no way I can authorize you as an Adventurer Alliance, like taking on multiple requests at the same time."

I was able to complete one request after I had just taken on multiple requests, but I had nothing to do with the other request.

To prevent that happening, the Adventurer Alliance prohibits Adventurers from taking on multiple requests at the same time. However, it may be undertaken simultaneously if permission is obtained, for example, in cases where the destination is the same and different objects need to be collected.

However, the Alliance Master cannot allow the request to be taken from the Theodore tribe. Because it is not appropriate for us to be neglected of our own requests.

Most importantly, it doesn't matter this time.

"Why not?

"What?"

"This is not currently taking on any other requests."

……

We didn't take the "Island" investigation request from the Alliance.

It's just that I was introduced to the Inn, which is the closest place to the 'island', and I was shown the status quo that there are people in need, and somehow they promised me a reward.

I never took on a request through my guild.

"If I were to take on the request, I would take it at the party, thank you."

It's easy to make them take on the request.

You can make a nomination request.

But it can't be easy to prepare rewards for five A-rank adventurers, etc. Then we need to have a separate reward that we can convince ourselves of, but I'm sure we'll need a lot of reward nonetheless.

That's why I induced him to move voluntarily out of a sense of justice.

You thought we would move if we intervened in a war to help our own country that was attacked, if we took the initiative at the request of scarce rewards, even though there was no way for demon swordsmen to be rewarded in a raging city.

I was just getting paid for what I didn't actually see.

"You understand how bad this situation is."

The ownership of the 'island' lies with the Theodore tribe. That is an unmistakable fact because it was decided in a deal that was previously exchanged.

But the upper layers of Savona, who want their assets, including land with the Theodore tribe, were all going to get them and plotted to plunder them by leaving the facts unattended.

But the adventurer who came here and went at the request of the Theodore tribe asks him to give up what is on the 'island'.

It would be impossible if the Theodore did not have possession of the 'island'.

"I'm going to go back to Alistair, where I'm based, and I'm going to make sure I report this one. If you do that, you'll keep a record of what you paid for completing the request."

If that happens, it's impossible to get rid of it.

"Except it's not a request via the guild, so it won't be communicated unless I report it."

"... what are you going to demand?

You know what it's gonna take to get this far?

But I'm not going to ask for anything that hard.

"It's a simple story. I just need you to make a request there."

Aleister's Adventurer Guild will receive all reports in his body that he has taken on a request in the Adventurer's Guild in Savona.

I understand that it is difficult to accept multiple requests at the same time.

More than anything else, what is being demanded this time is an unknown 'island' investigation. I don't usually afford to take on other requests.

"What do you want to do?

"There's no room to say no. I'm also only an employed guild master from Savona's point of view. Plus, I even know things I shouldn't know about development rights. You can't imitate me in the wild, so in the worst case scenario..."

Move your bent hand to the side with it against your neck.

In the worst case scenario, he could be physically decapitated as well as socially.

It makes me feel like I did something I'm sorry for because I didn't know it was such a bad situation.

Still, it's a profit priority first.

Take on the request if you can get a satisfactory reward.

"I've brought some rare magic tools in anticipation of this"

Jeffrey's arm has a storage ring.

They've got it ready in case you need something to reward you, and when you lay a sheet on the beach, you take out a bunch of magic tools.

After all, there are many weapons and protective gear with only magic tools that the Adventurer Alliance can put out and that are likely to be useful in combat. If you're a normal adventurer, it's a magic tool that's going to jump right away, but we don't need any of it because we're not having trouble equipping because of the labyrinth... Hmm?

"What is this?

Crystal balls placed at the end.

Crystal balls were placed in a corner where pot-shaped magic tools were placed that could be freely transformed into hot water by simply pouring magic into water for parties where there were no other members who could use water magic besides the kind of equipment.

"Oh, is this crystal ball? After you defeated the giant sea demon before, all sorts of things began to drift on the beach. Apparently, the giant sea demon who attacked the ship was hoarding a variety of objects, supposedly due to the crusade that caused the flow of what was in the nest. So, this is one of the drifting things."

Direct only minimal interest, pretend.

but it seemed impossible to deceive them in their Jeffrey opponents, and I can move on to this as a reward.

"All the drifted objects were to be appraised by the appraiser's hand. So, I got this appraised, too, but I didn't know anything."

"Nothing?

"Yes, I'm pretty sure it contains magic, but I don't know what the hell it does and how to use it. Disposing of it is also dangerous because it can erupt, given that it contains magic."

"I see..."

"Do you want this?

"Give me that crystal ball and the lamp next door and the glasses."

"Yes, sir."

As a dummy, I made two other demands, but my purpose is one crystal ball.

That crystal ball is - the labyrinth nucleus (dungeon core).
