Unfortunately, no one had human information with sage stone ingredients and recipes.
But Caro told me that I went to the house where my grandfather was because I was able to get information about the best known grandfather in Goats Rocky.
I don't think that grandfather...
"I didn't know you were the grandfather of this bookstore."
I shrugged emotionally.
He's a professional samurai, master of living together, and a fan of the family Laritai.
Speaking of which, I've barely read the book I bought from Grandpa yet.
I walked into the bookstore alone.
"What, you're here again"
"Yes, I just wanted to ask you something"
I left a small bottle of wine.
This grandfather told me that he likes alcohol a lot.
"Is that what you want to hear? Didn't you come here to buy a book"
Even though Grandpa said so, his expression soothed slightly. They had the effect of booze.
"So, what do you want to know?
"If you can, the stone of the wise itself. If not, sage stone ingredients, and where the recipe is. Or it could be the location of a senior alchemist obtaining a sage stone recipe. I want to get it as soon as possible."
When I asked, I saw a shade in Grandpa's expression.
"The stone of the wise man? You've come up with the name of something big again. I think the boy knows, but the sage stone recipe is one that everyone would want if he were an alchemist. Not so easy to get."
"... I know that."
"Sorry, but I don't know where the recipe book is. I don't know if it exists."
I was ready.
After all, can't it be so good?
"But I know someone who can make a sage stone"
"True!? Who the hell is that?!?"
"My brave companion, Daijiro."
Grandpa said.
"Daijiro......"
"Oh. This is a rumor I've heard, but the profession of Daijiro, a fellow brave Alessio - the inventor is located at the top of the alchemist's skill of being able to invent a variety of objects. If we raise the level of that profession, he says, we can get recipes for all the alchemy that exists in this world. She would be able to smell the stones of the wise."
Oh, my God.
Even though we know on previous journeys that Mr. Daijiro is not so easy to find.
If I can do that, I'm already helping Milli out.
"Plus, there are many rare materials"
"Do you know the sage stone material?
"Oh. First, Adamantite, said to be the legendary metal - you're going to need that"
Adamantite!?
What a coincidence, I just got it.
I think I already have the rest of the material, or if I can find it in no time -.
"And a mass of magic, a dragon nucleus."
"The Dragon Nucleus - Is the Heart of an Old Dragon OK?
"No, the dragon nucleus is a material dropped by the legendary dragon called the Demon King Dragon. The deepest dungeon in the world, the boss of the infinite labyrinth on the eastern continent, drops it."
The name Infinite Labyrinth, but the lowest level exists, and that seems to be a thousand floors underground.
It is the demon dragon that appears as the boss there.
When you defeat the Demon King dragon, they say you have a low chance of dropping the heart of the Demon King dragon named Dragon Nucleus.
Items that are difficult to obtain.
"Nectar at the end."
"Nectar?"
"Oh, it's also called the booze of God."
This is also an item I don't know.
In the end, I only had one of the three.
Besides, is it the eastern continent where dragon nuclei are available?
Find Mr. Daijiro, go to the Eastern Continent, and find a nectar that doesn't know where it is further.
Will Sheena III be safe until then?
Let's ask Pioneer if there's any way to extend Sheena III's uptime. I wish there was a sleep mode or something.
"Speaking of which, someone knows how to get a nectar"
"Who knows!? Who is it?
"The Alliance Master of the Mercenary Guild - the representative of this Goats Rocky, and of a wide range of mercenary guilds in many countries, including the Kingdom of Shiralaki. Its power is comparable to that of a king. I think it's useless - no, it's useless, but I'll write you a reference."
"Is it useless..."
"Yeah, he only trusts them with his own eyes. Still, well, it's gonna be a little better."
My grandfather wrote me a letter of introduction.
"Thank you. You even do that."
"I just felt like it. I don't even want to thank you. But if you get more than two nectars, give them to Non."
"Okay, be sure"
I thanked my grandfather and left the store.
With that leg he headed to the mercenary guild and showed the receptionist a letter of introduction from his grandfather.
"Ha..."
I was sighed for some reason.
And...
"I apologize first. Excuse me."
They apologized for some reason.
The receptionist pulls into the back with a letter of introduction.
I have a bad feeling. No, this isn't a hunch anymore.
Grandpa said it was useless.
And that was right.
The receptionist came right back.
With two torn references.
"Mr. Ichinojo - I'm sorry."
"No, because I was ready... Huh? Why did you give me my name?
"For once, I checked the contents before it was broken. I'll give you a message from the Alliance Master. 'If you want to see me, do mercenary work'. He said he'd see you when he accomplished the job he put out."
Strength first - you mean. You're right your grandfather told you.
"Okay. But I don't have a lot of time, so I'll be at work in a few days, please."
"Yeah, it's a combined strength test job. A dungeon south of here - where you defeat the boss and take home a sign of it. The reward is 70,000 goats. If the request is accomplished quickly, the master will see you."
"Okay - you're not much different from what the Adventurer Alliance does"
I get the request, I say.
"Yeah, right. The Adventurer Guild is a mutual aid association between adventurers, but the formation of the Mercenary Guild was created with the aim of giving work to soldiers who are no longer on the road after the war. Some of the servicemen were productive, so while the Adventurer Guild can only be a combat person, the Mercenary Guild is different when it comes to letting anyone in"
Let anyone in -?
"Originally, there were exams, but I decided that Master Ichinojo's ability to exterminate the Demons at the Royal Castle would be fine."
"Oh, speaking of which, I did"
It has been confirmed in the Principality of Nick Plan that there is an exam in the Mercenary Alliance.
Most importantly, the mercenary guild was at war with the Kingdom of Shiralaki at that time, so even the same mercenary guild was a separate organization from the mercenary guild here.
Now that the war is over, the guilds are united, so the kickers could work here too - that?
Does this mean you passed the test by name?
You mean I can call myself a mercenary, not unemployed?
"Well, if you're like Ichinojo, you'll have other jobs, but the mercenary guild has a strong aspect like day labor, so feel free to go find a job even after you get to meet the guild master"
"Ah... yes"
Daily labor - is that with part-time work?
You're still a long way from a full-time job.
But I don't care about that right now.
Collecting materials to fix Sheena III is a top priority.
