Isekai Tensei no Boukensha
Chapter 8-10 Octopus Value
"I was so hesitant to eat it, I ate scattered."
"Don't say that, it's weirder to be able to eat that at first sight."
A few hours after the octopus tasting, I took care of myself and didn't dive into the lake to do the sorting. Jin and the others continue to participate in the work, but the work speed itself is slow because it has been roughly sorted. Gin, who returned his words to my soliloquy, apparently approached me as I was carrying things to the women in charge of sorting the trinkets. I guess you're going to take a half-break. By the way, Galat and Blanca are in the process of moving things, just like Gin, and Grandpa is using water magic to get rid of weapons and protective equipment stains. The slurrins are in the middle of a nap.
"First, octopus is a basic sea creature, isn't it? Leena doesn't know, but Menace and I grew up inland, and she's working in the dungeon. You don't have to know the octopus."
There's a point to what Jin is saying, but I don't think it has anything to do with dealing with my octopus dishes as poisonous as they are. Upon entering the matter, he deflected himself and began to whistle in an obvious attempt to delude himself. When I look at a gin like that with my jito eyes, I've been trying to divert the conversation from whether I can't stand it anymore.
"Nevertheless, how dare you find this all? It was decades ago, and it's a mess."
With that said, the jewellery that Jin pinched up was popular about thirty years ago, let's build it that I don't see much of nowadays. However, since most of these are objects worn by adventurers, there are no jewels attached, and they are worn out by rust and so on, so they would be of little value. Well, some of them seem to be in good condition, so if you clean them up, you might want some favorites you like. By the way, I asked him if he wanted it for the rewards of the Jins (especially the women), but he didn't want it as one.
What the Jins didn't want was instructed to be placed separately for each type of metal. I'm going to talk to my Gantz parents even in my spare time, and even ingot what I can melt and use.
"It's time for us to go back up there, but Tenma's still here, isn't she?
By the time the sorting was almost over, it seemed time had come for the Jins to return to the ground. He was only going to stay for a short time because he was originally only going to show his grandfathers around here.
"There's still room to explore."
In fact, even though I still have more than half left, I feel overwhelmed rather than overwhelmed due to today's injuries and unexpected poor vision. I'm not going to make it if I don't find him on the run tomorrow.
(Well, if I can't do it somewhat, I'm going to be able to find it more efficiently... I don't want to...)
If you think about efficiency, you can use Exploration. But when I do that, one problem arises. That's a terrible headache.
When I try to find something in Exploration, I really can't keep up with the processing speed of my head. Besides, when I try to find something that I don't know where it is, I have to look into the details, so the burden will go on my brain only for that amount of time, and after degrees, it turns into pain. When I play online games or something, I think it's a symptom close to stopping or getting very slow when I try to play on a computer that doesn't have enough specs. Besides, there are many small creatures in this lake that get caught up in 'exploration', so the burden is put on even more. Even before, I have not suffered from headaches once or twice, using them in a way that makes them more burdensome.
I also feel that this is not a user-friendly ability to ask, but as always there is nothing wrong with using it for limited purposes (such as narrow use or search for something I already recognize, or a big mess of searches).
Well, good luck with that.
The warp zone closest to this lake is upstairs, so the Jins are going back to the ground there. Each one of them seems to have taken their rewards from me. By the way, I barely know what the four of us chose. When it comes to what you know, it's about comparing a dazzling knife or sword at the time of sorting, and who didn't choose the ornament alone.
"What will Grandpa do?
"Me? I'll stay. I want to practice my world, and most importantly, I'm free."
Grandpa seems to have been willing to spend time here from the start, and he's been collecting carriages.
"I'll stay too"
"More than your daughter stays, naturally, so do I."
In the end, Blanca and the others were going to stay. They locked the apartment and left it with Amy.
The situation where we're all away might be a one-of-a-kind opportunity from a guy who's not thinking about it. Most of all, they don't have anything left in the apartment, so it's like sneaking into an empty treasure trove. And he didn't steal anything, but he said he was going to be chased by us as criminals. Well, Grandpa's been taking care of some thieves, so that's what we're talking about if he gets away with it.
After Jin and the others returned, we tried to go upstairs to prepare for the camp, but Grandpa said it would be a good experience to camp by the lake because there were four of us, so we were going to build a camp on the wall as far away from the lake as possible. Finally, the order of watch during the break was also determined. The order is three shifts, me (Slalin + Shiloumal + Solomon), Blanca, Grandpa and Amur. This was an operation where Amur and I didn't have any experience in waterfront camping, so we went around at the beginning or end of the day with less burden, and then we put on the slurins to increase the number, and Amur had experienced Blanca to make up for the shortage, but Blanca asked Grandpa to accompany Amur in this order. It should be noted that the reason Blanca asked Grandpa was "because with all the same guys, knowledge seems biased".
Amur said he was going to work with me, but two experienced people argued theoretically, so at the end of the day he was nodding, but when it was my turn he was trying to sneak up on Shiloumal and sleep, so Blanca and Grandpa dragged him to the carriage.
By the way, when I took turns with Blanca, I had a bad feeling I didn't go in the carriage, but slept in the back of the carriage surrounded by Shiloumals. Besides, I had Blanca wake me up when I took turns with Amur, and then I even slept in the carriage. When I woke up in the morning, I complained to Amur, who was completely sleepless, but Blanca was mad that you were bad.
Except for Amur, that day, they each continued yesterday after breakfast (I'm looking for Mithril, Grandpa's practicing the junction, and Blanca's sorting). By the way, Slalin and Solomon are walking, and Shiloumar is Amur's pillow.
"Will you be more vigilant today than usual?"
Diving into what was going on yesterday, I used yesterday's lessons to broaden the scope of "exploration" nearly twice as much. Even if I say double, it's not a huge strain because it's about 20 meters wide, mainly me, and it's precise enough for a creature more than three meters in size present in the range to react. If it's true, you should try to react to smaller creatures, but it's not a good idea to increase the accuracy, so I thought it would be less dangerous to take an accidental hit if it was less than 3m based on yesterday's octopus strength.
"Well, if a creature the size of which is worn out, there's no way the guild hasn't grasped the boulder."
That's why I walked around the bottom of the lake while I was on guard. Occasionally I found shy protective equipment, but I never saw the octopus, and when I came to the shallow field, I stopped my morning activities and went back to everyone.
"Is Amur still asleep"
"Should I wake you up?
"Smell the rice and it will happen naturally. Put him to sleep until he's critical."
That's what Blanca, the guardian, said, so my grandfather and I tried not to make a loud noise. Most of all, as Blanca said, she woke up as soon as I started preparing my meals.
After the meal, each taking a light break, I heard some rushing footsteps from the upstairs floor. It's not us who don't notice all this footsteps. I stopped the break immediately, took out each weapon and set it up, and prepared for those who approached me... Well, I immediately found out who it was in 'Exploration', so I knew it was less dangerous, but I kept it to everyone in case something happened.
"The Alliance! I'm not going to attack you.
The identities of the footsteps were employees of Seigen's Adventurer Guild. There are about five of them, but they are all people I've seen, and one of them was the guild leader.
"I'm sorry I came so suddenly. I just came to make sure because I brought some information about the 'Dawn Sword'... is it true that you crusaded an unconfirmed demon in this lake?
Anything. Jin and the others who returned yesterday came in the morning and gave us information about the octopus at the exchange. At that time, the guild leader happened to be out, so he couldn't come right away. He came as soon as the guild leader knew. By the way, the sources Jin and the others apparently left the city on request before the guild chief returned.
"Are you talking about him?
I took out the octopus with two missing legs and put it out in front of the guild leaders.
"Oh well... Actually, this guy could be a new breed, so I'm sorry to make you take a little record. Of course, I pay information and nuisance fees first. And in some cases, just sell me the torso. I might have to send it to Wang Du."
That being said, the guild chief took three gold coins out of his pocket. Before I took it, I made a few terms. That was, at the end of the record, helping to dismantle it and buying the built-in that I was going to throw away, but from the guild leader, he said it was a ship across the street, which he was immediately acknowledging.
He then proceeded with the recording and dismantling of the octopus with the Alliance staff.
"Again, you're a big octopus like an idiot"
Looks like the octopus I know, but the size is different digits. First, there were three and a half meters just for the head (the torso to be exact), under which there were eyeballs with more than forty cm, feet about ten m long, and mouths between the feet sixty cm.
It's just a surprising record, but the most surprising of all was the mouth, also known as the Crow Tombi. Oh, my God, the official's finger that I was touching to get the record ripped open the moment I accidentally touched it. There shouldn't have been much force in it, but the wound was deep enough to reach the bone. I treated it with magic immediately, so I don't think it matters, but the sharpness won't even take a pull on a skilled craftsman's knife. Besides, it seems to have at least more hardness than magic iron (because pieces of magic iron protective equipment came out of the stomach like they had been eaten off), so if this bit me, one or two of my legs would be easily eaten off. Octopus, squid, etc. are often preyed upon so as to spread their legs and envelop them against their prey, so I think they were lucky in a way.
A demon stone was found from Octopus's head in a subsequent investigation, and he was officially certified as a demon, so he's going to send a report to Wang Du. They are checked by the department that manages the demons in Wangdu, where they will be notified to other Adventurer Alliance branches for the first time when they are certified as a new breed. Incidentally, the price of the torso part (including around the eyes) is 500,000 G, and once it is certified as a new breed, an additional 500,000 G will be paid from the guild, as well as a 500,000 G bonus from Wang Du's department.
"I'd rather have a misrill than a bounty..."
"Hmm? What, should I pay in kind? I'll hang it up."
The guild leader who picked up my whine thanked me. And the payment from the Seigen Guild was also supposed to be a missle. To tell you the truth, I almost wanted the rest of the Mithrills stored in the guild to be sold as well, but there was a contract with the blacksmith that I couldn't do it. The King's Guild just wants to know if there are any extra Mithrills. I will order an extra cap of up to 100kg if I want.
Originally, individuals could not treat guilds like shops, but in my case they also acted as' orations', and hunting for dragons and other things would give them a lot of preference.
Then some time later, the guild leaders returned to the guild and we resumed our activities. There was no particular happening from the time of resumption until the scheduled stay, and we were able to successfully complete the lake exploration.
Ultimately, the lake alone was able to obtain nearly two hundred and fifty kg of misrils, with more results than expected. After all, I was able to find a place that looked like an octopus bed.
The octopus took the captured prey to his bunk and ate it, but there were misrilled weapons and protective equipment rolling near the bunk that could not be chewed up. The location alone found a hundred and fifty kg of misrils. Now that the total number of misrills is just over 500 kg, it's almost half the target. If we're going to compromise, we can still get into work tomorrow.
However, when you get here, there is no way to compromise. It will be difficult to find Mithril at this pace, but I do not plan to leave Seigen at this time, so I am hoping to collect it slowly.
When I went home to talk to my grandparents about it, for some reason there was a crowd near the entrance to the apartment. Strangely, as he drew the crowd to his apartment, there were several men and women tied up and fished upside down, and several golems protecting upside down fishermen and women, as well as the guards of Seigen.
Honestly, I only have a bad feeling. But you can't stay away from me. Being confused that way, Amy and Ariel noticed us and came and told us what was going on.
Anything. About noon after today, a few of those men and women who are being turned upside down fishing tried to sneak into my room and work an empty nest, and they were caught and turned upside down by the golem my grandfather was setting up. The noise grew from there, and the guards rushed, but the golems said they tried to attack the guards as they approached. Perhaps you decided you were one of those people who tried to help the empty nest. They're taking distance and staring at each other now.
It seems like five to six hours have passed since those empty nests were fished upside down because the time now is about to get dark. It's time to worry about the empty nest life on the boulder, but Amy confirmed that she was energetic enough to just be evil until an hour ago, so she said she would be fine. By the way, Grandpa had ordered the golems not to harm Amy (or Ariel and the others), so he said there was no danger in approaching. However, if Amy acts in a way that helps the empty nest (such as loosening the rope), the golem seems to gently go into stopping. Well, he tried to lower it to the ground at first on the boulder, but because the empty nest rummaged against Amy, he made sure that both Amy and Ariel only had minimal confirmation.
"In that condition, you'll be fine if you do... they'll likely come to retaliate sooner or later if you let them go"
When I say empty nest, it is likely that people will come out fine or light punishment because they were not caught in the current offense. Besides, it didn't look like they were reflecting on us, no matter what we thought. Well, even if the Golem opponents come to retaliate, I don't think they can do any harm to us, but if Amy and the others are targeted, they can't be completely protected.
Therefore, I decided to make it a little scary. Fortunately, Jin and the others have been through this many times, so I have some knowledge. Besides, there are two people who seem to be good at that kind of thing, and since I can use healing magic and I have all kinds of drugs, I won't die so easily... I should.
I had a light meeting with my grandparents and talked to the guards who were hanging out with the golems. In the beginning, the guards showed difficulty in my suggestion to do something about torture, but the empty nest was still secured by us, and when we showed the royal family crest from the king and the family crest from the Duke of Sanga and the Marquis of Summons together, they pretended not to know (...).
When it was done, he promised to take the empty nests to the guard's quarters and asked the guards to go home.
Now there is no one in the way. Come on, it's time for fun.
