The next day, when we returned to Luminous, our capital, we visited the Adventurer's Guild.
Because...
"What can I do to find a village that is having trouble with the annoying monsters?
And when I asked the question, Laura answered it like this.
"You should go to the Adventurer Alliance."
"Adventurer Guild?
"It's a place where people like a store take on goblin extermination or whatever. If you're in real trouble, I'll make a request there."
The Adventurer's Guild had become a tavern on the ground floor.
People are sitting all over the arranged table. The outfit is not uniform. Some men are mage style, while others have long swords on their sides. What we all have in common is that the atmosphere we put together is clearly heterogeneous to the civilian population.
Perhaps they are adventurers.
We headed to the counter. Talk to the young woman standing there.
"I'm sorry, but is this the Adventurer's Guild?
"Yeah, but?
The woman shifted her gaze in turn with me, Laura.
"May I ask you a favor?
"... no, no. I'd like to take a request. You know, the goblin exorcism, that sort of thing."
I conveyed my will in some pain.
... It's hard to talk about because I don't know how it works...
"You want to take a request?... but it feels like we're talking. You don't seem to know about adventurers, do you register adventurers?
"Do you have a registration"
"Yeah, because the rank changes the job you get. Register, do your job, increase your rank - that way you'll get more and more jobs. I can't leave a big job to someone I don't trust."
"So is that."
"Register? It's free if you just sign up."
"Mm-hmm."
I have an idea. I don't want to be an adventurer.
"Can't you see what kind of requests you have before registering?
"There it is."
At the end the woman turned her gaze, there was a large bulletin board, where countless pieces of paper were affixed.
"Call me when you're motivated. Because if you don't sign up for the guild, you won't be able to pay for making a request."
"Thanks"
I moved to the message board to thank the lady at the reception.
Bulletin boards were stretched with paper for various requests.
The paper contained a compact summary of the request, details of the request, location, rewards, etc. It was all written in the same format, so perhaps the guild summarizes what the client told us.
Each request is affixed with multiple sets of sheets of paper of the same content.
The content of the request is varied.
"Laura, why don't we just collect the paper for the exorcism request?"
"Yes, I understand"
"Do you know if the monster is causing damage to the village? I just want to remove the request because I live nearby and it's dangerous."
I won't let the villagers tell me if there's any real harm in it, but I wasn't going to take them down until the ones who coexisted quietly - at least, I don't think I'm going to take them down at my will.
It's just 'a monster that annoys people'.
Laura looks at some paper.
"Hmmm...... you don't seem to have written that much detail...... you might not be able to confirm it without going to the village"
"Right..."
"But I think most of it is harmful."
"Why?"
Laura answered my question with a low voice.
"Requesting adventurers costs money. I can't afford any village, so unless I'm really in trouble, I'm not going to ask the guild."
"Oh...... sure"
It still helps to have Laura.
It's a situation you'll never know it's me.
"Well, let's get it from one end"
We move to a table nearby.
I glanced at the request form.
What we have there are our clients - the screams of the people of Luminous territory. I didn't know so many people were scared of the monster threat.
"... I need to help..."
"Yes! Right!
Laura shook her right hand and matched me.
It was then.
"Ahem? What are you guys watching for?
All of a sudden I had a breath of alcohol.
It's still daylight.
My forever carefree arm stretches out and grabs the requisition I'm spreading on the table.
A red-faced middle-aged man stood as he turned his gaze. My body is disappointed and I am a warrior-inspired man.
"... come on, it's a crusade request... What, are you guys willing to do this? No, you can't. I need to get some more sleep!
With that said, the man swallowed a beer in the opposite hand in his upper mood.
I asked the man.
"... put him to sleep?
"So-so. Just ignore the request."
I don't know what that means.
"How could you do that?
"Crusading system, I'm getting it out because I'm in real trouble! My life is at stake! Ignore him and you'll get more rewards!
The man said and burst into laughter as if to showcase an awesome invention.
Laura's both eyebrows jump, not angry about a rare thing.
"Oh, my God! Voice for help!
"Huh? Are you serious? I'm risking my life to protect you. Is it a bad idea to sell that high? You're with the merchants."
Guh, and Laura got stuck.
A man pointed to several sheets of paper on the table.
"And because that's the one I'm after. Don't take it. I mean, the others are booked. Nah!"
The man looks back and looks at the other adventurers.
The people who were watching us interact laughed hehe...
"Everyone is waiting for the price to go up. I'll get more money just because I'm drinking here! Nice stuff! We need to get you in some more trouble!
Just asking makes me feel bad......
"... it's not life the merchants are dealing with."
"Am I?"
"I want to ask, is this what all adventurers do?
"Yikes? You can't normally do that. More or less motivated idiots are leaving."
"Not now?
"My son came forward a while ago as a commander. Those skilled men will be hired then. Dead or moved to another realm - we're short on manpower right now."
I see...... are these people here with bad arms and character......
A man continues with a happy face.
"Special needs, special needs! I mean, it's not like we were used to cheap jobs. I'm trying to get you in some more trouble. When you guys are one of us, I'm gonna assign you a favor, okay?
Ha, ha, ha!
And the man returned to his seat with a big laugh.
"Mr. Alberto..."
Laura sees with a sad face.
It's okay, I told Laura.
"... I've been drinking here forever, but it's okay - when you want to make money, it's over"
I'll collect the requisitions I spread out on the table.
"Let's go, Laura. Clean up all requests"
