"There is a spell called mental destruction (mindblasting). You want to give it a try?

Mental destruction (mindblasting) is a spell that deals direct damage to the subject's spirit.

In the medium spell I can use, the limit is two uses of the remaining amount of magic vegetables (mana).

It's pretty suspicious if two shots will bring us to the extinction of the Ghost.

However, this spell is something that can also be used to torture, and the victim says, "It feels like you can get your hands directly into your brain and chest and stir its contents into a mess at the same time".

Just letting her use it once would be enough restraint.

Also, even if you can only use it twice now, if you sleep overnight and restore the magic vegetables, it will be enough to wipe her out, the ghost.

In any case, I could say that the advantages of the negotiations are here.

"Ugh... so what am I supposed to do? Keep it up... do you mean we'll have to perish, mindless and unclean like this!?"

The girl weeps in her eyes and complains like that.

It's not what I found out, you can poke at me, but I was a little sympathetic to this ghost girl, and most importantly, I'm creating signs that Cyril doesn't seem to be keeping her mouth shut.

It's no fun to get into trouble around there.

You should take advantage of it, rather than be emotional.

I decided to teach the girl the best for each other.

"I didn't say that. But if you're trying to make me listen to you with threats, you can't even look at me."

…………

"The bargaining principle is win-win - that is, the way you get what you get, and we get what we get. And we're adventurers. If you're going to ask us to do something, it's up to you to do us a favor, with a fair price. And it's up to us to decide whether or not to take it. Don't scorn the will of the negotiators to satisfy your demands"

"... I mean, money?

"If there's anything else I can offer you, it doesn't matter."

"... no. Then in the corner of the backyard of the village chief's house is a place where gold coins are buried. I'm sure they haven't found it. The amount of gold buried should have been a piece of crap."

The girl was a detour.

If you say that, it is possible that this one will ignore her request and run away with the gold coin.

I don't even think you're lying, and I guess you're still not good at negotiating.

That said, you won't even have to bother to blame me for that.

In fact, I'm not going to do anything like run away, and I don't think Cyril, who serves the righteous god, will allow that.

For us, if we can get a reward commensurate with our work, that's fine.

If there are really more than a hundred gold coins to be buried, it's more than enough as a reward, even in view of the anticipated intensity of hostilities.

It is difficult not to reflect it as a feat to the Adventurer Rank because it is not just in the form of an Adventurer Alliance quest, but there is nothing else to look at.

"─ I mean, how about Cyril and Mi?

When I ask my companions that, the two girls snort together.

"As a follower of Ahatna, the goddess of light and justice, and as I am personally, I don't want to keep those people to themselves. There's no difference in success."

"William has been profitable, and Mi has no complaints. But Mi..."

Mi flickers and turns her gaze to the girl who looks satsuki.

I know what Mi is trying to say.

We have a certain attachment to her right now.

So I decided to make another demand on the girl who looked like Satsuki.

"So let's take on your request. But I have one request."

"... Huh! Yes!

"You took over Satsuki's body and tried to use it and crush it for your own purposes. As Satsuki's people, we can't just unconditionally overlook your actions."

…………

"What I ask of you is an apology. If you make a sincere apology, we will cooperate with you. I don't impose, but I don't think it's a bad story. What do you say?"

When I asked her that, the girl stayed in a potato worm state and wept all over her eyes.

And...

"I'm sorry. Aah! Higu...... wow ahhhhh! I'm sorry, Bruiser!

He tried to cry and uttered words of apology.

Then we took the night off on the spot.

Then he goes to the village the next morning, digs up the garden soil of the village chief's house and confirms the gold coins buried there, then re-buries it.

That's how he confirmed the existence of the reward offered by Philia before returning to the city of Atlantia to report the completion of his quest to exorcise the undead.
