Helping with Adventurer Party Management

Episode 287: The Function of the Booklet

If the booklet is small, I don't have to write anything extra.

I made him joke and explained, but I mean it quite seriously.

Humans, if you're given a big blank, it's what makes you want to write extra information to go with it.

Conversely, if you have less space to write, you start to devise ways to write the least amount of information to go with it.

"If you minimize the information you write, you should be fine with it even if it's small. Extreme stories, a goblin crusade, two bronze coins, and a client owns the transportation."

"Isn't that a little impossible? Because the villagers, they can barely read a word, and they've never asked an adventurer, so they don't know how to ask for it? I'm just imagining a monster attacking a village, maybe it's goblins from footprints and damage, maybe there's three of them."

One of the reasons why farmers cannot be aggressive in their request to the Adventurer Alliance is that the terms of the request are not finalized.

For adventurers, the raid of monsters in everyday tea meals is also, for most villagers, an event every few to ten years that rarely happens. In time, when it becomes a disaster of scale that you have to ask the adventurer to do, it is often your first request, unless it is a pioneering place on the margins of the extra.

Because of this, the party issuing the request is not accustomed to issuing the request, and contractual problems such as overestimating the content of the request or, conversely, underestimating it persist. And, for the most part, the peasant side will be crying and sleeping that they are unschooled and being raided by monsters. And neighboring villages who hear rumors of that hand also increasingly hesitate to ask for adventurers.

In short, they don't calculate the cost well because they let the antimonster amateur estimate the job.

Going so far as to think, the image of the booklet has solidified.

Until now, I have been thinking about the contents of the booklet in a catalogue image, like the case study of the request in one way or another, but I believe that the booklet should be a quotation form.

If you enter a number or something that has been asked in the input form on a web page, or the like, you may want to imagine what the final amount will be.

For example, the following questions are followed.

Question 1: Were you attacked by a monster by day or night (if at night, go to question 6)

Question 2: Did you see the monster? (If you haven't seen it, go to question 6)

Question 3: Was it two legs? Was it four legs?

Question 4: Is your body larger than a person's? Is it small?

Question 5: How many monsters were there? Were you talking to each other?

Question 6: Have you checked the monster's footprint? Is that bigger than a person's leg? Is it small?

Question 7:...

Opening booklet, question item on the left. Publish the formula on the right.

If you have the foot shape and appearance of a major monster, such as goblin, as an annex, it is still good.

That's how you get a peasant to hear a priest who can read the letter of the Church, and you get a quote to ask an adventurer to represent you.

The rationale for the costs will be clearer, and the Adventurer Alliance side will be more receptive to requests.

If the request is based on an accurate quote, it is easy for adventurers to contract the request as well.

From the adventurer's point of view, the request to expel the monster is life-threatening. The more experienced adventurers, the more important the information is. It is only natural to welcome requests with precise information.

I told Sarah the idea that

"I know the reason, but can you do that?

I was asked, so I answer with a strained chest.

"I can. When I was an adventurer, that's how I gathered information and sorted requests, right? Anyway, the information coming to the Adventurers Guild was full of insignificant content."

"Uh... if you ask me, you've been talking a lot about Kenji persistently eating something down. Was that what you were doing?

"You're not persistent..."

And I smiled bitterly.
