After three days of rest, The Red Vow came to the guild to take up his job as a hunter again.

During the rest period, many times the user came from the Abbott Chamber of Commerce of Example Buy Slap "Sell Me a Rock Lizard," but each time he said, "It only comes with a value of 60% or less, because it's only defective," he chased it back without dealing with him, and for the first time he said, "I'll buy it with 15 small coins," so I said, "Because the Alliance is going to buy it for twenty," and then that Chamber owner himself came.

'You can give me twenty-one small gold coins,' so Pauline said, 'I've already sold them to the Alliance for twenty. I could have sold it for fifteen then, hey. I didn't seem to have any luck...' he said, leaving with a rinse and teeth.

In the case of ordinary chambers of commerce, it is an item that is purchased for about 25 to 28 small pieces of gold per person and sold for a total value of at least forty pieces, divided by site. If purchased in fifteen pieces, the profit is worth twenty-five small gold coins per person and a quarter of a million yen in Japanese yen. That would have been even more regrettable if we had known that there were not just three of them, but actually a large number. I deserve it.

And every week from now on, a large quantity of rock lizards will be sold from the Alliance, and even if you try to buy them, you won't be able to sell them only to yourself.

"Well, I'll find my next job."

Nodding at Lena's words, everyone ran their eyes to the request board simultaneously.

And a few minutes later, it caught Lena's eye, one request.

"Uh-huh..."

"What's wrong with you?

Miles called out to Lena, who thought something of it.

"It's this request, but you think the request fee is a little too good. I wonder if there are any circumstances..."

"Escort request. Round trip to Amros, 9 days required, one of which is free time in Amros. C-rank or higher, for a total of twelve. Reward amount, twenty-four small coins per capita. B-rank or higher is increased."

Twenty-four small gold coins per person, three per day, in an eight-day, life-threatening job. As for the price of life, it sounds cheap.

But nothing, it doesn't mean there's a fight every day. On the contrary, there is an overwhelming likelihood that nothing will happen throughout the journey. If it's a dangerous journey like being attacked every time, business doesn't make it in the first place.

However, it was only natural to hire escorts according to the size of the merchant corps in case of banditry avoidance and demons, as the likelihood of being attacked by bandits would increase dramatically without escorts and the damage could be done only by merchants and lords, even if the hunters were demons to such an extent that they could be relatively safely chased away.

But the market is supposed to be a little cheaper, per two small gold coins per day.

"Hey, let's see..."

Lena walked to the receptionist when she said so, and the miles rushed to follow.

"Oh, is that a request for escort..."

Lelia, the receptionist with a slight face, answered the questions of the Lena and the others who went to the reception desk.

"As a matter of fact, on the streets of Amros, I'm leaving..."

"Oh, is it haunting!

Mile's head with his mouth pinched from the side was lightly slapped by Lena.

"I'm not gonna say anything unnecessary! So, what's really going to happen?

A little pale, Lena.

(Huh? Could it be, Mr. Lena...)

When Miles thought so, Lelia went on to say the words.

"Actually, the, the haunting..."

"" Hi-no!

"I don't, I don't... I mean, ahhh, I'm sorry!

He meant to be a mild joke, but Lelia apologizes in a hurry to see Lena and Pauline genuinely scared.

"And I'm a bandit, bandit! Something came from another country, a little overcrowded. So, if you don't raise the reward a little, people won't get together, so the market is going up over there. Merchants don't gather that many carriages either because they avoid going that way now, and inevitably not so many escorts......

You should all stop because you have a good chance of getting attacked. It's not the right price to pay if the danger is multiple times higher and the reward is increased by 50%. "

Then I heard one story from Lelia, and Lena and the others left the reception counter.

Bandits, normally, don't get very large numbers.

A large number of people does not sufficiently benefit everyone by attacking a single carriage, and we have to increase our activity by carrying out numerous raids or attacking large merchant convoys. And when that happens, there are many hunters of escorts, and the damage they do is enormous.

In addition, when too much merchant damage is done, commercial activity lags behind, making it impossible for countries and lords to overlook it, and large crusades are organized and eliminated.

So bandits, small numbers, wide and shallow.

To the extent that the unlucky and those who cheated on escort bills are very occasionally attacked, it's almost all right if you're properly prepared. Because bandits, strong opponents, go through and target easily attackable prey.

And even if attacked, they are killed during battle, but surrender and you will often be stripped of your body to no harm. Because if you surrender, you will be killed, you will fight desperately to the end, and at the end of the day, you will be set on fire to your loads on your stomach to bandits, and then you will suffer more damage and no money.

To the hunter of the escort, 'surrender and you will not kill' reduces each other's damage, and to the merchant, 'earn hard again, and lead the carriage that will be your prey'. Therefore, if the client accepts the request and if the hunter who takes command of the escort decides to surrender, it is not "request task accomplished", but the hunters of the escort are not penalized for fulfilling their full obligations, such as liquidated damages, and the remuneration is paid properly.

That's the slightly larger band of bandits that have flown from other countries this time, apparently attacking them while traveling without a full-fledged aside. And kill all merchants and lords. Perhaps, after making rough money, he intends to move to another country before the crusaders are formed. It takes time for a lord or country to move.

"Let's take that one"

"" "Eh..." "

"Let Miles wear cute clothes and sit on your podium, and we might catch other bandits."

The three of them were surprised by Lena's words.

"But that request is dangerous..."

"Oh, and the danger hasn't matched the reward"

"If I'm away for another nine days, I can't afford to stay..."

To Pauline, Mavis, and Miles' negative words, Lena raised an angry voice.

"I told you, I'll take care of it, I'll take care of the escort!

"I did say that, but that's a normal request, that is.

One day you'll get a request for an escort as well, and I figured it wouldn't be a bad idea to get used to something called an escort early, or go through a people-to-person match if you had the chance.

But that request has a considerably higher chance of being attacked than normal, less reward for it, and a lot of bandits. You won't have to go out of your way to stick your neck in danger that you like and don't fit for it. There are other requests for escorts, and I don't think we need to jump to strange requests in such a hurry. "

"Wow, I think so too..."

Following Mavis, Pauline also expressed opposition.

"Besides..."

Mavis continues his words.

"One day the time will come to kill people. But the time has come to do so, at your discretion. Otherwise, he later said, 'I made that decision and made the choice I thought was right. So I won't regret it' and I can't convince myself.

Lena, aren't you trying to take that request for the purpose of killing a bandit, not to fulfill your mission of escorting him? Aren't you trying to force 'the first time you kill someone' to come someday, instead of letting them welcome you naturally? And... "

Once the words are punctuated, Mavis continues the words.

"Let Miles wear cute clothes on your podium," what is that?

Guards fighting is a last resort. The primary aim would be to ensure that bandits hesitate to attack with intimidating effects. Show that there's a girl, not an escort, and deliberately invite her to raid? So, what if the carriage or load is damaged and damaged? What if my client, your men, the other escorts get hurt or die? Why should I bother to do something that goes against what I'm asking you to do and that would be dangerous?

Besides, if you were dressed like that, Miles would be fighting unprotected when he was raided, in his first interpersonal battle, against a large number of bandits. Are you even thinking about it and saying it right around there?

Mavis threw his last word at Lena, who leaned in silence.

"... what are you in such a hurry, Lena..."

Lena remained silent for a few seconds but suddenly turned herself over and ran away.

"Lena......"

In the corner of the guild, the three "Red Vows" stood on their feet.

Lena was back by dinner.

Hunters whose bodies are capital do not skip meals at their own expense, and eating approximately is a lack of faith in the accommodation they are discounting. Lena was of a custodial nature around it.

…………

Mavis spoke to Lena, who kept quietly eating the food.

"Lena......"

…………

Ignore Mavis' voice and keep eating in silence, Lena.

"Because I took that request for escort. We're leaving tomorrow morning, so don't go to sleep."

Buh!

"Bye! It's dirty, Mr. Lena!

"Ahhh, my rice. Ahh!

Screaming, Miles and Mavis. Pauline was, for some reason, securely evacuating her plate.

"Oh, you guys, I won't take that request..."

"Huh, that's a lie!

Lena stared at me guillotinely and rushed to hide behind Mavis for miles.

"No, I just don't remember asserting that I just raised questions and encouraged reconsideration, and I wouldn't take it.

So I just came to the conclusion that Lena was gone before I reconsidered, so I had no choice but to reconsider with the three of us left, and I could take it, but what is that?

Lena stares at Mavis when she says so.

"Oh, tell that all to Borocus...

So, what happened to the question?

"Oh, no problem. After much deliberation, I've come to the conclusion that it's acceptable."

"What the hell is that!

It was a noisy Lena, but she was slapped on the shoulder with a ton from behind, and looking back, Lenny, smiling, offered a bucket of water and a rag.

"" "" Excuse me...... ""

In the morning, Miles held his head after Lena ran away at the guild.

No matter how you look at it, Lena has something to say or hold.

I said, "Then should I do everything Lena thinks to make Lena satisfied," and I don't go either.

If you do that, the party may run in a hell of a direction, and you can't seem to correct your buddies' mistakes, which is no longer a 'buddy' or a 'red vow'.

After a while of thinking, Mavis said.

"In the meantime, let's find out more about that request."

Then he went back to Lelia at the receptionist and decided to meet with the client and listen.

Luckily, the day has just begun. There was plenty of time.

"Was that the circumstance as good as it got... So, do you mind if I do this?

"Huh? No, this one helps, but okay, even if you do that..."

"Instead, here we are..."

"Eh! No, but the budget..."

"But if you fail, it won't be anything, will it?

"Uh-huh, here we go..."

"Instead, how about this?

"Eh, what is it! That's what happened?

"Yes, I'm fine"

"Then......

So we're late for our departure because we waited until the escort gathered, so we'd like to leave immediately, okay?

"No problem. My" Red Vow "is always ready to go"

It was before noon of that day that discussions between two men and three girls were held in the Guild's conference room, united in a manner satisfactory to both sides.
