"... what? Monsters without demonic stones?

I'm going to the lake this morning, so in keeping with that, I slept a little early yesterday, so Dusker, who woke up a little early, was listening as he ate, saying that an adventurer had come from his birthday tower where he was gently organizing paperwork before breakfast.

As an adventurer who was going to have breakfast at a delicious store, it was off the charts, but I'm pretty sure this was probably the best form Dusker's hired cook could take, beyond having first-rate skill.

Although, he didn't seem to be aware of it at all.

I guess it was perfectly conscious only that it meant eating in stores and stalls of my choice.

Nevertheless, if you eat one or two bites of the dish served for breakfast, you won't be able to stop at its delicacy.

There are only skilled adventurers who are not in trouble for money and sometimes receive entertainment, but there are still few delicious dishes in this dish.

The adventurer nods at Dusker's words as he endures wanting to be disappointed in the food.

"Yes, I'm not sure yet."

"Why?

"That, because Seto smashed the head of his opponent as he was moving over the water when he defeated Amenbo's monster. If that Amenbo is a monster with a demon stone in his head, the demon stone may have been crushed by that blow or just sunk in the water."

"... but is it normal for a demon stone to be in the heart?

"Right. But it's still easier to understand if you think it's on your head than if you don't have a demon stone."

That said, the adventurer reports on what kind of monster Amenbo was.

In that, it was, naturally, an attack by acid that attracted Dusker's interest.

The defense itself is brittle, but Amenbo, who emits acid with very high aggression, can be described as a rather troublesome opponent.

Above all, moving over the water is the most troublesome part.

If this is shore, we can also imitate running and approaching, but if we're on the water, we can't do that either.

"You need to get a bow."

Dusker groans slightly abominably.

If you are dealing with someone who can move freely over the water, it will still be the bow that will be chosen as the quickest means of attack.

Very few have the means to fly in the sky, and some wizards, but not many of them.

In that case, bows are still chosen as the easiest means of attacking enemies on the water.

Above all, it's still that number.

Speaking of polarity, if dozens or hundreds of people are caught up and shooting arrows, even Amenbo, who can move freely over the lake, is no harder to defeat than having nowhere to dodge.

... but then the body sinks into the water, so it's very difficult to retrieve it.

Amenbo in particular is more than an unknown monster, I don't know which parts can be used for what materials.

(Will you check with the guild?... No, but if the lake came from another world, is it unlikely that it has that information? Although I can't say absolutely more than some examples of Lizardman)

Even a delicious breakfast in the corner can't enjoy the flavour enough because of the problems that have arisen since morning.

"So, what do you do? I heard you were going to the lake this morning."

"I haven't changed my plans. I want to see the lake with my own eyes for once. I can do paperwork in the carriage."

Wow, adventurers with expressions like that.

Adventurers are basically good at moving their bodies, but many have no connection with things like paperwork.

If this man were told he would do paperwork even in the carriage than he was also an adventurer in that hand, it was only natural to dislike it.

(Or can you sign and do whatever it takes to read the paperwork in the wagon shake?... I guess I can say this)

The adventurer man thinks he doesn't want to imitate such at least, and still reaches for warm bread.

"Anyway, I appreciate Ray securing a body for one, but I'd like a body with a head if I could. I want to see if there's really any demon stones."

"Um, I was wondering if that's a little difficult. That was the only Amenbo that actually came out in the morning. The lake is huge, so if you look harder, maybe you'll come."

With that said, I would expect the adventurer to probably not find it.

In the morning, I'm not the only one who did things like look around the lake, and others should do the same.

Nevertheless, we could not find any other Amenbo.

Given the circumstances around it, it is still very difficult to get Amenbo's body anytime soon.

(Oh, but Seto can fly through the sky, and if you look over the lake maybe... I'm talking about if that Amenbo is usually underwater)

It has the ability to move to slip over the water, but it is not surprising that, if imitated as such, it is regarded as excellent bait by flying monsters.

If so, it's not usually strange to have been underwater.

... Most of all, that's only a man's prediction, and I don't know what kind of ecology it actually has.

"Find it. I heard from the marina that they decided there was no problem for now..."

"Oh, are you the Alliance Master"

I'm a former guild master to be exact, but as a man who's been an adventurer for a long time in the guild, I really think of Marina when it comes to guild masters.

Nevertheless, it's been quite a while since Marina left the Alliance Master, so when it comes to the Alliance Master, it's time for me to think of the worker, to be honest with Dusker.

If you try to be a dusker, Marina is a very dependable opponent, as well as someone you know when you were little to call your own black history.

It's not that I hate him or hate him, but it's an unmistakable fact that he's not good enough or hard to do.

"You're a marina, not a guild master"

"You did.... I just haven't really gotten used to it since I've been calling you Alliance Master"

If you are an ordinary adventurer, you have less chance to meet the marina itself.

Occasionally, for some reason, when I came out of the office and onto the first floor of the guild, it would be to the extent that I stumbled upon it.

However, if you are a brilliant adventurer, you will also be instructed directly by the Alliance Master to explain the contents of the request.

When that happens, it would be nice for a few of us to meet the marina, but when we meet the marina alone, it's close to a kind of trial.

They imitate the glow of a woman to the point of intensity, wrapping her manly fleshy body in a party dress with an open chest.

Exactly torture...... may be a little too much to say, but as a person I often thought so, not joking or anything.

In that sense, I made a man named Ray - which objectively looks like it - and now, because such a marina woman's luster is directed at Ray, there's nothing like struggling that much anymore.

Thanks to this, spending money on hookers is also... not that it's gone at all, but it's definitely less accordingly.

"Right. Well, hey, get used to that area. Anyway, as far as that marina could tell, it wasn't that dangerous, was it?

"I don't know the details, but I hear there weren't any monsters the same size as the slime Ray knocked down. The water spirits in the lake seem a little difficult."

"... I see"

To the words of the adventurer, Dusker still thinks that the lake must have come from different worlds too...

(Wait)

Second, there's a connection between the other world and Amenbo.... No, is it correct that we are no longer connected?

(Green people don't know if they have demon stones, but Lizardman is definitely a monster. More than that, you are likely to have a demonic stone. Expensive... but maybe you don't have a demon stone or something? This matter is quite important, so asking the green folks is a bit unsavory)

After I go to the lake, I decide to hear from Ray... or Zozo.

If you make it a dusker, you're in a lot of trouble this time.

There, if the demon stone... there will be no demon stone in Amenbo's body, then the Lizardmans will have demon stone...

(I mean, does that mean that that lake came from a third world, not this world or the one where the Grand Dragonian Empire is?

It was what Ray expected because of his various special qualities, but Dusker arrives at that conclusion almost on his own.

At the same time, I understand that it has really been very troublesome from the bottom of my mind.

(A little from the Kings might help if this happens)

For Dusker, a little of the Kings was very troublesome.

Especially if the royal family came out with an immediate - though precisely the hand of it - I can't say anything but that it's a hassle.

But there was no reason why we should leave this troublesome situation to the Kings anyway in a situation like the present.

"Master Dusker? What's the matter, sir?

An adventurer speaks to Dusker, who has been delayed in his own thoughts on the way to breakfast.

When Dusker shook his head sideways saying it was nothing to it, he went back to breakfast again.

"Are you sure? You can take me to the lake in this carriage, too, okay?

After breakfast, the quickly prepared Dusker tried to head to the lake, but the adventurer who brought the report said he would shy away from it.

It's a very comfortable carriage only for carriages like the lord Dusker rides... so why not join us? And I doubt it.

But the adventurer shakes his neck beside the words of such a Dusker.

"No, because I still have something to do. I also have to report to the guild. Especially when it comes to that Amenbo."

"Really?... It's about the monster, right? Then come on."

Saying so, Dusker's carriage departs from the Lords' Hall.

"Phew."

The adventurer man who dropped it off finally exhales there.

I was sure I needed to go to the guild to report, but if I were to, that would be the only way I could tell the facts more accurately if I had Amenbo's body with Ray.

I didn't do that simply because the adventurer guy didn't want to ride in the carriage with Dusker.

Of course, that's not because I hate Dusker.

I have no feelings that I hate the Dusker who runs the Guild with respect.

Still, I guess I didn't get in the carriage with you because a large amount of paperwork was brought into the carriage by Dusker's order.

While traveling from here to the Trento Forest, it was certain that having to keep watching Dusker doing paperwork extended would not be a very breathless, very, but comfortable trip for the adventurer either.

If you were told which one would prefer to be in such awkward air or to travel on your own, it was only natural to choose the latter.

"Now, do you want to buy something that lightly goes into your stomach?"

I just had breakfast, but I didn't eat a full belly enough that I couldn't eat anymore.

The dishes of the cooks hired by Dusker were delicious, but still eating with great opponents like Dusker is part of the tiring.

Do you feel that, the adventurer man rolls out all over the city, trying to buy something to eat with ease.

... The gatekeeper was turned on a strange gaze with a mixture of sympathy and surprise, but sympathy nearly got me into paperwork, which surprised me...

(Well, I wonder what. Well, it's about counting that I came to the Lords' Hall, so it's not weird to think that way)

Understanding that there is no point in thinking any further, the man rolls out all over the city.

It's only morning... No, it's morning, so many people are moving around actively.

Collect information by turning your ears to your surroundings as you progress through so many people.

This isn't something I'm doing for a purpose, it's a half-hearted substitute.

I guess it's because I still understand that information is important to do as an armed adventurer.

Even when I was acting at a party, not solo, I needed to take the initiative of collecting information myself rather than leaving it to someone else to gather it.

I acted with that in mind, but should I say it's still coming into my ear. There's a lot of flaming magic that Ray used yesterday.

I guess that's all that huge flame was an amazing sight for the inhabitants of the peripheral guilm.

Most of all, many people in the current Guild are not only residents of the original Guild, but have been looking for work on the additions.
