Graduated from Witchcraft Institute

of the mining city of Noban, in front of the mayor's mansion.

Four of us, Satsuki, Mi and Cyril, are led into the mansion by a servant.

A servant took us through a big room like a conference room.

There are tables and chairs arranged in the shape of Co, and we are instructed to take their one-wing seats.

We take our seats as instructed.

Across the street, the senior adventurers in the matter were already waiting about their seats.

Then they serve tea and wait awhile.

The door to the entrance to the room opened when I began to wonder if I also had to have one of the conversations with the attendants.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

It was a small, pompous Dwarf woman who came into the room with short words.

Back length is about the same as Mi, or slightly bigger than that.

Wearing superior clothes that show how sartorial she is, she then walks into the room and heads to the master's seat at the Co-shaped table.

Dwarves are generally in a sloppy shape, but unlike male Dwarves with disappointing physique on their mustaches, female Dwarves often have cute looks like human children.

The face also tends to look younger than the real age, so much so that I would mistake it for a child without it, although I know it is a certain age with a calm expression.

She also appeared on this occasion, and perhaps even a young girl in her early teens, but she is actually at least older than us.

Still, I think the late twenties and thirties are exquisite, but to be honest, I'm not sure how old the Dwarf woman is by the looks of it.

It should be noted that behind that Dwarf woman was a manly man dressed like me, wearing a magician's robe and holding a cane.

It would be something like a nearby mage (Magee) serving the mayor.

The Dwarf woman looked at us and another group of adventurers as she sat down in a chair that she thought was specially designed and could use a platform.

"It's Evelia, the mayor of Noban. Well done for coming, adventurers. I'm sure you've taken on the quest for Rockworm's exorcism, but no mistake?

It was a word of confirmation with a lovely, but calm voice that matched its appearance.

The answer to that was the wild voice of a senior adventurer leader.

"Oh. That one's an E-rank hyocco adventurer, but we're experienced D-rank adventurers. Unlike the kids in the picnic mood. You can rest assured. Whatever they didn't see, you can pay us double."

"─ What!?"

Satsuki suddenly tries to stand up in front of her client, but I control her with my hands and turn my words to her client, Evelia the Dwarf.

"Sure, he's right, we're still inexperienced as adventurers, but we do our job right. I want you to trust me there. I am also proud to have sufficient knowledge of Rockworm and the necessary ability to respond to it."

To my words, Evelia snapped "ho" and moved her eyebrows to show interest.

Then she asks questions for the D-Rank Adventurer party.

"Yes, it is. Do you know anything about rockworms?

When asked so, the leader like warrior (fighter) -style man looked in a panic and urged his fellow mage (mage) -style man to explain, "... hey, please".

The prompted magician-like (Mage) man answers in many ways.

"Oh, and... he's like a giant mite, living in a cave or something, and he's pretty strong... and I'm sure... what it was..."

"I see, okay. - So, what's that?

Evelia will now look at me and demand an explanation.

I nodded and crushed my brain knowledge and put it on my tongue.

"Rockworm is a monster with mines and other rocky mountains as its main habitat, whose body length is about five meters or more in adult worms. Mimiz travels through the earth eating dirt, but Rockworm is able to do that on the rock, albeit slowly. That's because they have strong acids in their bodies that also melt rocks, but they sometimes spit that acid out of their mouths and use it to attack. Also, the body surface is as hard as a rock, and it is difficult to even scratch it properly with a semi-saving blade. The Monster Rank, which adds up to their overall abilities, is D, or more, especially if it's a giant individual."

"Okay. That's it."

When Evelia said so, she turned her gaze to the sorcerer (Magee), who refrained as her proximity.

The nearby magician (Maggie) nods firmly to it.

You'll see if what I said is right.

Then Evelia said this with a grin on her mouth.

"I can guess which one is gaining strength just by listening to the current exchange, but in any case, I want both of them to do their jobs well. According to the miners' story, Rockworm has been found in several pits. This means that there is likely to be multiple inhabitants of the interior of this Norvanian mine today. Paying according to the number of crusades is as presented in the request form for the quest. Expect an adventurer's sign to work shamelessly. Above"

When Evelia declared that much, she handed over the dissolution and took the nearby magician (Mage) out of the room.

Then the red-faced senior adventurers,

"You can't rely on me! Although I would have been ashamed in front of my client!

"Huh? It's my fault!? Can you answer that all of a sudden?! It's bad because you say something extra!?"

and so on and cursed each other, leaving the room to flee.

And all that was left was the four of us.

As I stood up and tried to get to work quickly, three Satsuki, Mi and Cyril stopped by instead.

"That's Will!

"It is. William can count on you."

"Right. That face of them, honestly, gave me a boob."

I don't feel bad if I'm flattered, but it's not like that explanation of mine contributes to achieving the quest.

If I insist, I hope the senior adventurers will use the knowledge I have presented to help them survive... is it difficult in that way?

Well, it's not as intermittent as amuleting, and they'll just have to take responsibility for their own survival rather than being adventurers, too.

"It's more about keeping us alert than that. Rockworms can also be quite dangerous monsters depending on the situation encountered. If you don't watch your back, they'll feed you."

"Aye. Well, I don't know, you're not even as tough an opponent as Orc was when he helped the elves. It's okay, it's okay."

It is usual for Satsuki to laugh karakularly with such optimistic views.

But seeing her do that, I guess I'm the only one who gets anxious the other way around......

If I thought so and saw Cyril and Mi, they were both sighing.

I chuckle at them face to face.

"Oh, hey, what...? Why are you laughing?"

One of the satsuki who saw it was carrying a question mark over his head.
