Before Ray and Seto's eyes were rolling corpses of red-skinned goblins unlike regular goblins. It's a rare species of goblin. You can barely see the trauma because you were killed by a single blow to the neck by Seto. And before such a body, Ray was thinking as he stroked Seto.

(Once a rare species. I mean, it's rare. Basically, there's no material that can be stripped from the goblin, but what if that's a rare species? It is possible that there are areas where it can be used. Fortunately, if I keep it in mysteries, it doesn't seem to rot because there's no time flow, and should I store it for now? If you can use it, ask in the Adventurer Guild and find out in the library.)

Conclude by placing your hands on the body and storing it inside the mysterious ring.

(Regarding the right ear of the crusade proof site, it would be better not to submit it. If they find out I defeated a rare species of goblin, they'll definitely ask me what I did with that demon stone. There will be no immediate problem if we say that we destroyed the Demon Stone together when we defeated it, but there is a risk that the same thing will last forever. then it would be nice to decide that it did not work with rare species)

"Gru?"

I look around at Ray as he strokes Seto's head, who has rubbed his head all over what's wrong with him.

The purpose of this request is to crusade a minimum of five goblins. Regarding that, one could not cut off the right ear, which is the crusade proof site, due to the attack of a rare species, but the request itself is complete because it nevertheless secures nine ears.

"And do you still have time,"

I shrug looking at the dim sky, blocked by trees. Ray decides that there will still be plenty of room before noon and in time, given that the battle with Goblin was a few minutes and with rare species.

For once, the innkeeper pays me to prepare lunch, but naturally it is only for the ray, and the amount is not quite enough for the ray, which is not commensurate with the smaller body in terms of that amount.

"Then you need to hunt monsters that you can eat for me and Seto's meal."

"Grrrrrrrr"

I guess I heard Ray whining. That's right, Seto, who just rings small.

All right, let's go find the monster.

"Grr!"

"... I can't find you"

"Gru."

Seto responds to Ray's words, sounding sadly small.

I've been walking in the woods for about an hour since I defeated a rare species of goblin, but there's no way I'll ever find it.

But it's also natural in some ways. Originally this forest is a forest on the side of the street leading to the city of Gilm, because the Alliance regularly issues requests to exterminate monsters so that no damage is done to travellers and merchants. The goblins who were defeated by Ray and Seto would have been defeated at that request, but the goblins who gained a leader named Rare Species had taken refuge in the back of the woods and attacked those who fled the streets thanks to their lurking in accordance with the leaders' instructions.

(With that said, he said he was attacking merchants and travelers in a group when he heard about it in the guild... isn't it strange that weapons rusted long swords or something for that matter? Only rare species had a proper long sword.... Couldn't you take the weapon? Or are they packed and stored somewhere, and they don't have weapons in their luggage?

Ray thought on the inside, but I had no desire to look for the treasures of the goblins because I had no trouble with the money in the first place.

If you try Ray and Seto now, they're more edible monsters than one silver coin.

I don't know if that wish made sense, Seto, who was moving ahead of Ray, is stopping moving and looking around.

"Gru."

Having determined from that appearance that there is some kind of demon, Ray stands death-size and waits for his prey so that he can attack at any time.

And the next moment.

"Huh!?

Something sharp and small pops out of the bush that was nearby.

Ray reflexively slashes it with a death size. Slashed objects fly through the universe, making bits and damp noises to the trunks of trees that were nearby.

What struck me and in Ray's eyes, who ran his gaze for a moment to the trunk of that tree, was an elongated piece of flesh with a red and black colour.

"Snakes?

Ray whined small, but the question is resolved by the presence that has jumped out of the bush in the next moment. What showed up was a giant frog that seemed likely to be as far as Ray's lap. Its skin is covered with the same red and black mucus as its slashed tongue, looking at Ray and Seto with an emotionless gaze that doesn't make you feel a single expression.

(frogs in this forest...... you did have a request for a Poison Toad crusade on your f-rank request...... you mean this guy?

I guess I didn't even detect Ray whining inside, but the next moment, he used his frog-specific bouncing power to kick the ground and silently hit Ray.

But...

"Fool."

Even though it's a frog-specific bouncing force, it's only an F-ranked demon. Ray calmly reads the orbit where the enemy strikes, offers a death-sized blade on that orbit, and gently magically flows.

"Gero!?

Leaping into the air, Poison Toad, unable to change his trajectory, flashed himself up and down and landed on the ground. And the impact split his torso from his lower torso and he fell to the ground.

"Grr!"

And Seto rings sharply and tries to devour that corpse...

"Seto!"

Seto's movement is stopped by Ray's stillness.

"Gru?"

Why? I open my mouth as I take out a book from Mystering that I purchased yesterday in the beginner's edition of demolition.

"Perhaps this is Poison Toad, or the demon of a poisonous frog with its name intact. You may be fine, but you won't eat poison demons until you can."

"Gru......"

Though convinced by Ray's explanation, Seto nevertheless turns his gaze unceremoniously toward Poison Toad.

Its skin is covered in red and black liquid, poisonous to see! and looks strongly self-assertive. Ask Seto to be on perimeter alert and open the Poison Toad item.

(Are the materials that can be peeled off the tongue, the poison bag in the body, and the two back legs? but......)

Look to the ground as you compare to the book. There is a corpse of poisoned toad where the tongue was severed by death size and the body cut in two. As for the tongue, it was cut off as it was stretched to the ray, so it cannot be recovered from the ground up. As for the hind legs, they are intact, so this is also in good condition. However, when it comes to poison bags, which are the most expensive part of Poison Toad material that you can buy, they are chopped in two with the torso and are not in a very recoverable condition. Rather than that, the venom has overflowed from the area where it was slashed and the gut of each poison toad has already begun to ache.

"The tongue will be recovered later. First of all, it's a demon stone."

Whimpering, using an iron dagger, remove the demon stone from the heart, taking care not to touch the leaking venom. It would be somewhat larger than the normal goblin ones as a size. And similarly cut off just two hind legs.

Note that this hind leg is more of an ingredient than an ingredient to be exact. The butcher who deals in the meat of demons drains it and arranges it in stores. Because it is a very expensive ingredient, it can be bought unexpectedly high.

Poison bags that could not be removed this time are poisoned by pharmacists for use in antidotes and demons. Tongues are commonly used as bow parts.

Store the demon stone and hind legs into the mistering and also retrieve the tongue falling at the root of the tree.

Note that Poison Toad's crusade proof site is on his right hand with water, but Ray gave up cutting it with a slight frown when he saw it rotting due to the venom.

"So, the rest of the body... what's the matter with you?"

If the goblin carcass you fought a while back, some monster would clean it up as bait because it's poisonless. But now in front of Ray is Poison Toad. It is the body of a poisonous frog. Besides, he's chopped and ripped off the poison bag and drooled out that venom.

"You should burn it just in case..."

"Gru."

To that grunt, Seto leaks a small, denial squeal.

Seto is worried about poisonous smoke caused by burning. Having somehow understood that, Ray nods as he strokes Seto's back.

"Right, it would be more damaging to burn it. Will this be left like this? Well, I've stripped the ingredients, and I hope the next one's a delicious demon."

"Gru!"

Walk down a path without a forest path with a short barked ceto.

Discovering the fruits that are trees along the way, he is invited to laugh at the state of Seto, who is pecking and tasting them, while proceeding through the woods with that much vigilance due to his first request.

"This place..."

He defeated Poison Toad before proceeding through the woods, and after a short while he suddenly went out to an open place.

The space stretching out in front of Ray and Seto had a fairly large lake, which seemed to be used as a drinking ground for demons and wildlife. Evidence of this still shows pig-like beasts with sharp fangs on the banks of the lake.

"Gru."

Seto pressed his face against Ray like he was going to do something. I know what Seto is trying to say to Ray, too. You want to tailor that pig and make it your own meal.

Ray explores the condition of the pig as he scratches its head with dust.

The pig has huge fangs growing as it faces up from its mouth, and the weight of its gusty physique is probably definitely higher than Ray's. Such a pig mouths to the lake and drinks to devour the water.

(I haven't noticed this one yet because it's about 100m away. I mean, you have all the conditions for an ambush. A pig with fangs...... perhaps that's the fangboa that was in the stew we had at the wheat pavilion at dusk?

"Gru."

He nods at Seto, who rings fast and fast, and whines softly in the ear of his head, which he leans over.

"Look, Seto. I draw the attention of Fangboree with the magic of fire, so you attack him by poking his gap from above."

"Gru!"

Leave it to me, Seto, who just rings small and walks away from Ray. It would be a decision not to be found by Fangbore even flying over it.

Ray thinks about what magic to use as he watches Seto walk away like that.

(The primary purpose is not to let that fangbore get away. I mean, you need to stop. then...... I see, is it the fastest way to cover your surroundings with flames)

Ray increases his magic and casts a spell as he sees Seto ascend to the sky with wings flapping from a little further away.

"O flame, be a burning wall that burns down all who touch it in the midst of fire."

The spell with the magic released from Ray's mouth spreads the deep red line around the fangbore to draw a circle.

The deep red line is even drawn on the surface of the lake, which is supposed to extinguish the fire due to the enchanted magic. And the moment Fangbore kicked the ground trying to escape when he noticed something strange.

"Polar Flame Wall"

A flame blows up from the deep red line where Ray's spell was completed and ran on the ground, forming Fangbore and the outside world as a wall of division.

"Brrrrrrrrrr!"

A huge flaming wall appeared in front of its eyes as it tried to run out, stopping the progression and retreating Fangbore. The chirping that leaked out of its mouth was more like a horse than a pig.

"Burrough."

Fangbore to the right and left in the flaming wall, but its flaming temperature is repeated as it heats the fur of the fangbore, which should be sturdy just close, causing minor burns to the skin, so it is closer to the flaming wall and closer to it.

While wildlife how much damage I take when I break through the flame wall in front of me... No, I guess I understand by that instinct because it's wildlife. But that hesitation became the biggest and last failure of Fangbore's life. Had it broken through the flaming wall at this time, it would have survived, albeit with considerable damage from the burns. But by hesitating to do so, the presence that led Fangboree to death came from above.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Seto plunges from the sky as he roars. It was already too late when Fangbore noticed its presence, and the next moment, the hook claws on his swinging forefoot were blowing his head off.

"Grrrrrr!"

Seto pecks its meat raw as it raises the roar of victory. The fangbore, which will be more than 100 kg, subsides in Seto's stomach one after the other.

Ray unravels the polar flame wall while smiling bitterly at the look of it.

After that, he ate a lunch box handed to him at the inn with a view of the lake, and slowly waited for Seto's meal to end even though he felt somewhat lacking.

"The right ear of the crusade proof goblin, for nine. Please confirm."

In the guild of the city of Gilm, give the receptionist the right ear of the goblin removed from the mistering.

After that, Seto was satisfied with eating up the fangboa, so he decided to end his day one request and return to the city.

"Ah, yes. Uh, it's three copper coins with one right ear, so it's seven copper coins for two silver coins. So, how was your first request?

I shake my head at the receptionist who talks to me as I give him the reward.

"The goblins themselves were quite there, but you didn't see any rare species. He's probably a good hider."

"Really...... ok. I'll put it up there."

"I'll tell you what, I didn't actually see it. That's just my prediction, isn't it?

"Yes, but it's a human opinion in the field."

"... even in the field, today is my first day as an adventurer."

"I don't normally believe that people who follow Griffon are G-ranked. Besides, thank you for your hard work today."

His first day as an adventurer ended when he nodded to the receptionist who bowed his head.

Note that I will only note that 5 copper coins were bought for the reason that Poison Toad's tongue was cut along the way, 2 silver coins for both legs, and 9 copper coins for Goblin's Demon Stone.
