"It's a kind of life"

A paper wholesaler saw the lake. A boat-shaped coffin is burning.

He dug out the remains from the rubble, and a joint funeral was held in the town.

The third day after the earthquake.

Small aftershocks are still continuing. Affected people came to the town from surrounding villages, and simple tents were built in vacant lots where debris had been removed.

Create shelters in the forest. The monsters had disappeared due to the earthquake, so it was only necessary to cut trees and grass.

"Roads have collapsed, building materials are scarce, and information transmission has been delayed."

The paper wholesaler said he was tired.

It seems that some people in the same country don't even know that an earthquake has happened because there is no communication.

Furthermore, building materials cannot reach because the road is collapsed.

However, the ship seems to be safe, and only food is gathering in the town. After that, the town administration will do something.

The Komuro Company took the lead in rescue operations, debris removal, and establishing shelters.

Do what you can with your skills and simple powers. The broken magic stone lamp was also fixed. The work of passing the collapsed bridge was left to the craftsmen of the town, but the open-air bath was made immediately.

"It's great work."

Devan told me about making a bathtub.

"I make a bath everywhere."

"No, rescue after an earthquake ..."

"Oh, there was a lot of earthquakes in the place where I used to live, so I guess I know almost everything I need to do."

"Does the company sell recovery drugs?"

"Well, where are some ghost-type monsters outbreaks?"

"But I've never seen such a pure recovery drug."

Don't talk to me.

"Pharmaceutical skill level is high, so it's a correction. If you raise the level, you can allocate skill points? Dovan, in our company, it does not matter what level or rank of adventurer, It's tough if you don't have a job. "

"Yes!"

I don't want to force them, but I'd like them to take on non-throwing skills if possible. Then I think about immediate employment.

I haven't slept much in the last three days, so I'm going to sleep at the hotel today

"Mr. Komuro Company. Is it a little good?"

When I woke up in the evening, a paper wholesaler visited me. The merchant guild's headquarters has been crushed on a fallen bookshelf, and the owner of a paper wholesaler is now working as the guildmaster of the town. This person shouldn't sleep too much.

"Are there any problems?"

"Would you go to see the Fire Brave with me and have a direct hearing?"

It's not a pity to go to see the fire hero, because he must meet him someday.

"Efforts to rescue and recover the lives of people affected by the earthquake, including exterminating the Simant. Such a small lakeside town, but as a nation, we need to pay the Komuro Company for credibility. I want you to tell the state of the town. "

"Okay. Can I check it?"

"Yes, I don't care, but what?"

"Isn't there a governor or a mayor in this area? I didn't see a government office in this town."

"Is the governor like the king of a country that previously included this town? He died at the same time as the land of fire."

Is that so?

"The government was in the eyes of the king, but he wasn't dead. Most of the streets, bridges, etc. were set up by merchant guilds, and the adventurer's guild took care of what the adventurer could do. is"

Indeed, it's really a merchant country. However, if the town wants the government's support, is it only possible to make a direct inquiry? Inconvenient.

"I see. So where is the fire hero?"

"It's early winter, it's the 'Fire Festival', so it's probably in the West Desert. Once a year, there should be a meeting of guild leaders from each area of the Fireworkers. I think I can meet you "

"OK"

"Good! I'm saved! Departure tomorrow morning, when the fog is clear."

The owner of the paper wholesaler left the inn relievedly.

"It was ..."

Share with everyone that you're going to meet the fire hero while having breakfast in the evening.

"I'm worried about the" Fire Festival, "but if I could meet the brave of fire, I couldn't have trouble."

Isle said.

"The owner of that paper wholesaler is hard too. I couldn't afford to pay us, and I couldn't understand what to do. He might be thrown by the fire hero."

"No, we're just escorts? We're exterminating the Simant."

"Is it a festival in winter, isn't it? If the destination is the desert, will you go hunting in the forest after this?"

Bersa, Melmo and Seth commented on their impressions.

"Everyone, don't forget to collect information about the Fire Spirits."

""""Roger that""""

"I didn't know ...

Devan, sitting on the edge, raised his hand.

"It's okay. I can't explain it anyway right now. I'll explain it a lot, so don't let it flow right now."

Seth advises. I have to take care of my sister and brother.

"understood!"

"Dovan will go hunt for monsters in the forest with Seth and me after this, because he might die in the desert unless he keeps meat and edible wildflowers."

Devan looked at me and Seth alternately and nodded, "I'll do it!" I don't know how long it will follow, but I hope the level goes up a little.

"Is it better to hide our level? It's a fuss anyway. I think it's easier to get an adventurer's request if there's one with a lower level like Devan."

Said Vice President Isle. Although it seems unlikely that the gods' request would be useful, he is beginning to wonder if it would be acceptable to hire it to receive the request of an ordinary adventurer.

"But it's a job in my hand. Devan! I hope we don't end up."

"Yes, yes!

"That's right. If you meet, you will break up. We don't know when the company will run out, so we have the right skills."

"Is that so!?"

Aisle is surprised. It didn't seem that way.

"Yes, I don't know when I'm being targeted by the spirits, even if I die, everyone can live alone."

"OK!"

Bertha replies briefly and returns to her room, and Ayr begins to look seriously at the map.

When Dovan looks at Seth and Mermo anxiously,

"It's okay. The president doesn't die so easily because he's more resilient than Bagroach."

Said Melmo, handing over the boiled catfish.

After that, Seth and Devan hunted monsters in the forest until dawn and dismantled them. Little by little, the monsters that fled also returned.

The next morning, after the fog had disappeared, the owner of a paper wholesaler, who had an empty wagon, was waiting at the entrance to the town.

"Thank you again. I'm Samuel, Lakeshore's paper wholesaler and merchant guild deputy."

"I'm Naoki Komuro, President of Komuro Company. Thank you."

"Let's get on."

It's faster to run, but I'll do my best to say words. I'm sleepy.

We get on the loading platform and shake for one hour. I came to a place where the bridge was broken.

"Isn't this path too bad? I'm sorry, it takes a long time, but I take a detour."

"It's okay. Should we go beyond the cliff, right?"

We picked up the feehorse and the bed and jumped over the cliff.

Both Samuel and Feehorse were stuck with eyes on them, but when we got on the bed and slept again, the wagons began to move quietly.

In the afternoon, the shining sun dazzled and got up.

"Wow, I slept well."

Looking around, the forest disappeared and it was on the meadow

"Samuel, if you get tired, you will be replaced."

"Yes, thank you. I'm still fine. It's the first day. If you find a bandit or terrorist on the way, please."

"How long does it take to reach the desert?"

"It's 3 days at the earliest. It takes about 4 or 5 days because Fee Horse is also an old horse."

"It takes quite a while. Is it a straight road?"

"Yes, it's almost a straight road. Let's go get some accommodation in the village on the way."

"I see. Oh, I'm hungry when I get up."

"Hahaha, do you want lunch?"

"Yes!"

We parked a wagon on the roadside of the meadow with small yellow flowers, and we had lunch.

I asked Seth and Melmo for cooking and came up with what I requested. The steak and salad, and the mashed potatoes of Barremo, which were carefully baked with green deer peach meat with herbs last night.

"The freshly caught meat is different. I feel better."

"Have you been caught?"

Samuel asked.

"I caught it in the forest last night. I wonder if it would be difficult to get food in the desert."

"Oh, that's a komuro company, but there is no oasis town in the desert, so food is fine.

What a kind guild! If you join Fire Workers, you will not be troubled with food, clothing and shelter, and will help you when you start your business.

"Because we are a family gathered under the spirit of fire"

I was saying. When he had finished eating, Samuel said, "Bless the spirit," and ignited a lighter with his finger and blew it out with his breath. It seems to be something like a "feast" greeting. I could use fire magic, so my fingertips were quite hot.

"Hahaha, surprisingly, Komuro is not good at magic."

Samuel laughed. Certainly, the magic is not very good, partly because of the magic circles. I use it almost only when burning a magic circle. I'm good at cleaning and magical operations. The Isles also looked at me unexpectedly.

"The president also has weaknesses."

Devan said.

"I'm full of weaknesses."

"President is also vulnerable to beautiful women"

Say you don't need Seth.

"Especially weak for prostitutes"

"Should be vulnerable to female slaves"

Bersa and Aisle also intervened.

"……valley"

Melmo looked at me sideways, saying only words. It seems that he usually glimpses the valley of Melmo.

"It's big.

I made an excuse while preparing tea. Add sleeping pills to Samuel's tea. The medicine worked and Samuel fell asleep immediately.

"Okay, let's run!"

We lifted the bed and ran. On the leg of Feehorse, a magic circle of wind magic is drawn, with Devan and Samuel sleeping.

"I'm not so good at fee horses ..."

I left the voice saying, and ran along the straight road while lifting the bed. There were no people on the road, so I moved to the village at the junction. After waiting about 30 minutes while talking with the villagers, Dovan and the others caught up.

"It's my first time riding a fast fee horse."

Devan fluttered his feet and descended from Feehorse. Feehorse sweats well and snots.

A fireworkers merchant in the village took the lodging and laid down Samuel. Don't forget to take care of Fee Horse.

The rest is sightseeing in the village. I heard from a villager that a monster like Sasurikas, a play-dock, digs a hole and destroys the field.

When about 100 were caught in a sticky trap, a villager invited me to ask, "Would you like to marry my daughter?"

"No, are you okay?"

I found a bride in an unexpected place. When I met the daughter of the villager, she was only 12 years old.

"A little early ..."

When they get older, they promise to come back and have dinner. "I will do my job again," said Aisle, and went to bed at the inn. The dinner is feasted by the Isles, so there is no point to be complained about.

Is Samuel tired, he wakes up in the morning, sleeping all the time. He didn't eat dinner, so he got hungry.

Deliver the rest of the dinner from the villagers and leave.

"No, yes, yesterday I had lunch, so I went to sleep and I'm sorry."

"No, I didn't get lost because it was a straight road. Please let me know if there is a fork ahead."

I am on the platform today.

"If there's a fork, just keep going west."

"Is that so"

After lunch that day, Samuel fell asleep. I want to have a good rest because I was busy with the earthquake.

"Just because you can't fit Feehos, right?"

I was sucked from the Isle.

"That's right."

Hear the road at the junction village, pass through sandstone valleys that have been eroded by flash floods and winds, and exit into the desert.

There was an inn at the border between the valley and the desert. To stay there today.

As the sun went down, the horse-stays became more and more crowded.

"Where are you from?"

A white-colored peddler was talking.

"Um, lakeshore is from a lakeside town."

"That's ok. I'm from Snowfield north, but it's hot."

The peddler then wiped his body sweat. The desert seems to be too hot for northerners. Certainly, I feel sick with sweat mixed with sand. I was pleased to apply the cleanup.

"No, I was saved. The sweat is terrible. If you like this, please."

The peddler gave me orange-like fruits.

"Are you sightseeing in the Fire Festival?"

"I have it, but I brought my deputy guild to attend the guild's meeting."

"A proxy?"

"Yes, the guildmaster of the town has died in the earthquake."

"Well, it was hard."

"We're both asking and investigating the fire brave."

"Huh ... it's a lot of trouble. No, I have to go to the meeting, but I'm glad I met you here. It's encouraging."

Was this person not a man from a tangerine farm but a guild manager of a Snowfield merchant guild? I got it, so I peeled orange-like fruits and put them in my mouth.

The guild leader is looking at me.

"It's sweet"

"That's because it's a citrus of the season. It's a fruit that grows out of season, and it's getting more and more bitter. What should I do?"

Even in the demons, tree nuts other than in season were bitter. I used magic recovery syrup.

"No. Even though it's not in season, the nuts are growing and it's bitter again. "

Maybe in demons? Or rather, the guild is long and will fly to various places.

"I'm in charge of Snowfield right next to the mercenary nation, and it's tingling when weird things begin to grow. I have to buy a heat box for bribes, which is not a good thing."

I started to complain completely.

"Demons of livestock will attack the owner's ranch, monsters around will be strong, magic measuring instruments will continue to be broken ...

"A whore creates a monster?"

"Eh ?! Why?"

The Snowfield guild leader looked at me as scared.

"Ah, no, I've heard from the wind rumors that pregnant women living near magic stone quarries produce monsters. Is that true?"

"... Sometimes it seems like that, but I don't know if it's a magic stone quarry, but the goatship of livestock in Snowfield was producing a monster with a human face a while ago But if you suspect that it's all due to the quarry, you won't have any swords. One thing is for sure, the stomach hurts when it comes to quarries with magic stones.

I handed the healer to the guildmaster of the Snowfield Merchant Guild.

I'm glad to meet this person here.

Maybe you've got the chance to get rid of the fire hero.
