Let's Manage The Tower

(10) Selection

The scouts who entered town handed over the Speedmall Crusade Certificate Site in the Tamer Guild to process the request.

Speed malls don't have anything in particular to convert into cash, so extra hunting is an extra job.

However, it was not completely wasted because it was a stress dissipation for the wolves.

In addition, they will only be bought in binary sentences even if taken to the Crown, so they will be stored dead in the item box.

What I deliberately have instead of leaving locally is a study aid that has a poor taste and is stored for research.

Sylvia and Floria are already used to it, so I won't say anything in particular.

On the contrary, I am thinking that it can be used for something in the same way as examinations.

Neither of them had thought of such a thing before they met the Apprenticeship, so it was undoubtedly the influence of the Apprenticeship.

Anyway, the examiners visited the orphanage again the next morning.

This is, of course, to talk about what came to mind yesterday.

And the director of the orphanage, who had heard from the examiner, had hardened his eyes for a while.

"--------- Yes?"

I have been the director of an orphanage for a long time, but this is the first time I have been proposed to do this.

As a result, thinking stopped unintentionally.

Aware of the condition of the director of the orphanage, Kaiseki went on talking without any concern.

"I can't tell at a glance if zero is excellent... So I'm going to give you a little challenge, and I'm going to grow you up."

"Mm-hmm. I'll do the tutoring, but I'd like you to take care of the food, clothing, and shelter as always."

"Of course, I intend to donate to you until we can properly identify you."

Following the exam, Floria said so, and Sylvia continued to supplement it.

The director of the orphanage said in a bit of a hurry to explain again the examiners.

"So, in short, you're going to do vocational training for zero? Besides, you donated it?

The director of the orphanage said with the face that there would be no such thing, and Kaiseki became a face of illusion.

"Oh, I see. You can certainly see it that way. I just thought it would be better to extend my life."

Rather than suddenly taking care of a single child, it is better for the examiners to pay a donation to make life as it has always been.

Of course, there will be many challenges ahead, so there will be less time to make pocket money like yesterday.

However, it is only a matter for Zero to choose, and the examiner is only the proponent.

It is up to the orphan director and the person (zero) to accept it.

The director of the orphanage, who was managing to regain his usual condition, replied after shaking his neck slightly to the left and right.

"This is an unprecedented proposal for boulders, so we need to consider it a lot. I don't think there's a problem with the rules... Besides, we need to confirm the person's intentions."

"I'm sure that's true."

I nodded in agreement with the words of the director of the orphanage.

The examiner doesn't think his proposal is suddenly acceptable.

Just like the last time we met, we have to face each other several times to gain trust.

It is part of that that that we are only here to make suggestions.

The director of the orphanage sighed small enough to know that from the face of the examiner.

"... what do you want?

Yes?

Without understanding the meaning of the question, the examiner leans his neck small.

"Thank you, we've already made a suggestion. Do you think that's your decision?

The director of the orphanage shook his neck to the side when he said so.

"That's not what this is about. No, what do you want to do about the zero future?

Every person who comes to pick up an orphan has his own circumstances, but most of them are destined for a purpose.

For example, couples without children come to pick it up or simply pick it up as a workforce.

It is an act that clearly determines the future of the orphan.

However, the proposal for this study aid attaches importance to the choice of zero only.

It can be said to be for the child (zero), but it can also be regarded as an irresponsible proposal that does not take responsibility for the child's future.

It is only natural that the director of the orphanage, who carries the future of the children, has a slight mistrust of the examination aid.

It was because I realized this that I looked in trouble.

In the sense of study aid, the feeling of deciding one's own path is clouded.

It is a contradictory idea that the job of the child (especially the eldest son) is prepared by the parent.

Because it is an examiner who has already seen his/her child close to adulthood in one hand, I am well aware of the shift in that feeling.

And what we know about the deviation is not just the aid.

That is why Sylvia, who is the same witch as the orphan director, added to the list.

"Nothing, orphan director, we're not going to throw you out irresponsibly. I just want to leave you with a choice."

"Choice..."

"That's right. This time, we have proposed to Zero that he be a researcher. But if you get closer to adults, you may want to take an adventure. Alternatively, there may be a path for Alliance employees. Isn't it your responsibility as an adult to prepare multiple paths instead of tying them up from the beginning?

In Sylvia's explanation, the director of the orphanage opened his eyes as if he had been struck by falsehood.

It says on that face that I have never thought of such a thing.

Sylvia nodded once to understand the orphan's surprise.

"If you're qualified as a researcher, that's good, if you're not, you can go back to life and rethink your future."

"aptitude..."

"That's right. Whatever your talent is, it's not good for either of us to keep it that way, even though you're not motivated."

Sylvia said so as not to push him, and the director of the orphanage kept quiet to think.

Seeing the orphan director's face, Kaiseki told him to take over Sylvia's words.

"You may think a lot about sudden suggestions, so think slowly.... but I don't want to wait for months."

"No, it's a boulder..."

"Really? If so, please contact the Crown at the appointed time. I'll pay for it here."

The Crown has a system that can communicate things like gossip to its target adventurers.

It's like a simplified version of a letter, but it's cheaper and more popular than a letter.

The director of the orphanage nodded happily at the words of the examiner.

It was not easy to get time with a proposal that was too unexpected.

Besides, it would be nice to have time for Zero.

The director of the orphanage was thinking about that as he saw the examiners greeting him to leave.
