"Well, for the emergence of awesome rookies! Kanpa-yi!

"" "" "Kampa!

After that, we burned down a corner of the Warcraft Forest, and for some reason we were starting a banquet at a tavern in the Adventurer's Guild.

Or Mr. Ivan started it on his own.

"No, I'm surprised! I can't believe Rookie could use such amazing magic!

Mr. Ivan and the others will slap me on the shoulder with Nico's face.

"I've been watching! You're amazing! We were so desperate with an axe to fight a trap plant, it was such a magic sweep!

Apparently the adventurers who were fighting demons just now are coming.

"No, I don't. I'm not making a big deal of it. It was normal lawn mowing magic in my hometown."

"" "" What kind of hometown is that?!? ""

The adventurers raise their voices in a way that surprises them.

I was told the same thing earlier.

"Well, whatever! If Rookie's here, no, you're not Rookie anymore. Why don't you tell me your name again?

"It's Rex."

"Rex, with Rex, you don't have to be scared of the encroachment of the Warcraft Forest!

"You don't have to do any trouble!

The adventurers are screaming with real pleasure.

"Is it that much trouble?

"Oh, those guys are strong in life on the hard side. You know what? Because trees have moisture inside, they're surprisingly hard to burn."

Yeah, I know that. The branches of wood that you turn into firewood are just smoke, so you have to look for dry branches or once you dry them and evaporate the moisture inside.

"In addition, the materials are saturated because of the number of them, there is a buying price and there is no problem. So few people get a request for jubilee. That's why so few people take requests, which also means that the forest keeps expanding."

The expansion of the Warcraft Forest also has many intelligent reasons.

"So, that's why you showed up there! Your prison flames, magic, raw trees, but magic, but they burn in no time! I'm counting on you!

"We're counting on it, too!

That's how everyone bangs on the back again.

"Oh, my God, you're all hurting."

"" "" Ha-ha-ha "" "

But I'm really glad you accepted it favorably.

And that was then.

The Alliance door opened and the Adventurer came in.

When I sent my gaze wondering who it would be, it was who I saw.

"Mr. Liliera!

Yes, the woman who was angry when she suddenly called me a fake.

She came into the guild with a big bag in her hand.

I guess I came to ask my guild to buy it after an adventure even though I thought about it in time.

"Liliera!

I speak to Liliera to solve the misunderstanding I made earlier. [M]

"... hmm"

But when Liliera checked on me, she turned away and turned to the desk.

Apparently I'm still in a bad mood.

"I need to figure out a misunderstanding somehow"

"Nah, don't worry! If you bring me the material of the demon you actually crusaded in the Warcraft Forest, then that lady will understand that your strength is real!

Naruto, that's Mr. Ivan!

I feel calm as an adult adventurer.

"Right! Yeah, I'll do my best!

"Whoa! Come on, come on! That's why we're celebrating.

"'Cause you actually just want to make a scene -!

Foreword withdrawn, I figured you might be a nasty adult.

"Come on, we're going to have an adventure in the Warcraft Forest today -!

I am in a good mood and look at the request board.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Rex?

And I looked back because I heard a voice calling me from behind, and there was a beautiful woman with long dark hair there.

"Uh, yeah, but what about you?

"Excuse me, my name is Milisha and I am an assistant guild leader for the Adventurer Guild in this town of Hexi"

Wow, you're a great adventurer guild!

"Hi, it's a pleasure to meet you, Lex. Uh, what can I do for you?

"Yes, I have a request for you. Would you mind listening to me for once?

"Is that a request?

"Yes."

An assistant guild chief is asking for immediate help.

Whether I take it or not, I guess I'll just ask.

"Okay. We can't decide whether or not to take it until we hear what it is, but if you don't mind, let me talk to you."

"Yeah, that's okay. If you decide whether to take the request in consultation with your strength and circumstances. The Alliance will not impose."

Mr. Milisha urged us to sit in a chair opposite each other.

I can tell by the signs that the adventurers around me will see what's going on and this one.

"So what's the request?

"Then let's get straight to it. I'd like to ask Mr. Rex to stop the forest from expanding."

"Are you stopping the forest from expanding?

I think I heard the same thing yesterday.

"The adventurers told me. You think you're a magical user of the flames? I hear that magic burned down a corner of the forest in an instant."

"No, it's not that big of magic."

"Be modest. Alliance officials confirmed, but I did get a report that a corner of the forest had disappeared. It was incredible, too."

Isn't that just too much lifting?

"I think you already know what's going on in the Warcraft Forest when you say you've been baptized."

"Uh, are you talking about the forest spreading more and more?

"Yeah, we're working with countries to stop the forest from expanding, too, but for how many minutes the target is a bunch of demons. We were really understaffed, and little by little the forest expanded."

Mr. Milisha distorts the root of his eyebrows with regret.

"To be honest, as it were, I was prepared to sink all the hexi towns into the woods. But that's where you showed up. We were delighted to meet Tianwei."

What do you mean?

"The story is simple. I want you to burn down the outer perimeter of the forest with your magic. The reward will be paid in the baked range of the forest. As for the amount, I pay one silver coin for every 1x1m bake. The reward for the trap plant crusade is five pieces of copper coin, so at least double the reward."

"Can I pay that much for double?!?"

"I don't mind, it's more like twice as little effort and time, because it drastically reduces effort and time. Unfortunately, there are limits to the remuneration paid by the state, so we will adjust the area by rank assessors."

Is that why it's easier to increase your Adventurer Rank instead of being underpaid?

Maybe it's an ant.

"Are there any conditions when burning down the woods?

"Right, I want you to bake along the outer perimeter of the forest if you can. Suppose the forest shape is distorted, an extreme example, for example, into a three-day moon shape. Then the pointed part of the tip can't expect much material, so it's ignored, and the demons in that part sprinkle new seeds and the forest stretches elongated."

Mr. Milisha reaches out and shows the trees in the woods arcing and stretching.

"At worst, the town is in danger of being surrounded by thinly stretched and bred demons. So I want you to go around and burn it, and I want you to burn it a little bit smaller."

Will the adventurers lose their flavor when it comes to snoring?

"We'll get the carriage out of the guild anywhere far from town. We will also negotiate to have at least half of the cost of the carriage if requested by a neighbor so that the country can have it."

Um, the rewards are delicious, and I don't know if I'll remember the guild better and have any reason to say no.

But even if that deprives me of my freedom, it's the end of the line...

"Uh, can't you take any other requests while you're on that request or something?

"No, if you can burn down the woods regularly, you can take other requests."

"What if I wanted to move to another town?

"Of course that's Mr. Rex's freedom, too. But if it's possible, it would be helpful if you put it together and burn the forest before you leave."

You want me to burn the woods at the end of my adventure.

If my freedom is not threatened, shall I do it for a little while?

"Okay. I'll take that request."

"Thank you! Then if you burn the woods, report that to the desk official! I'll be on my way to check right away!

Mr. Milisha exhales a sigh of relief.

I just wanted you to take it.

"So I was wondering what kind of request I would take."

Having finished my conversation with Mr. Milisha, I was indulging in a request to be received in the Warcraft Forest.

"Whoa, are you just going to take the request?

And it was Mr. Ivan who called me.

You look kind of pale.

"Mr. Ivan, you look pale. What's wrong?

"... no, a little too much to drink."

Uh, because we all drank late yesterday.

"I'll give you one piece of advice if you want me to."

"Is that advice?

"That's right. Tips for working in the Warcraft Forest, ignore botanical demons."

"Ignore it!?"

But the Warcraft Forest is supposed to be full of demons?

If you ignore that, doesn't that fit the slap?

"Look, you can't basically walk a plant-type demon. Some people walk, but they're not that fast, so if you run, you get away. Anyway, all around you are enemies, you better fight less often. If you want to fight, make animal-type demons your main focus. And the place to fight is an open place with few trees."

Cheng Cheng, that makes sense.

Fighting in open places with few wooden demons is also a natural choice, isn't it?

"And this is the most important thing. Get out of the woods if you think it's dangerous. Whoever can't do this will die soon. So at first, go in and get out. Repeat, keep your retreat habit."

Wow, that's amazing.

It feels like a war adventurer's tactic.

I'm sure that's a lesson that's been passed down to this town for a long time.

"Okay! Thank you for everything you've told me, Mr. Ivan!

"Whoa, don't be shy!

After taking Mr. Ivan's advice, I decided to take a request to crusade Forest Wolf, a beast-shaped demon.

They say this demon goes out of the woods and attacks livestock in neighboring villages, but as soon as the villagers and adventurers come out to chase them back, they flee into the woods.

They're in real trouble because it's too dangerous in the woods for adventurers below the C-rank.

"The extermination of the beast was also done in the village, and let's make this request"

I just came to the woods when I asked for it.

"Let's just fulfill the request from Mr. Millisha, Flame Inferno!!"

I burn down the surrounding woods lightly with Flame Inferno.

Then let's go.

A trap plant quickly hits me in the woods.

Don't panic and make no noise, cut and discard the branches of the trap plant with a broadsword.

"Whoa, speaking of which, shouldn't we be dealing with someone decent"

Reminded me of Mr. Ivan's advice, I move forward only cleaving branches that attack me without stabbing a stop at the trap plant.

"Sure, this is easy. They won't come after us, so we just have to take away the means of attack."

That's some advice from a skilled adventurer!

"What is it, Kolya?"

My name is Ivan.

An adventurer based in the town of Hexi.

Rookie's welcome made me hung over, but I also managed to wake up drunk and come to the Warcraft Forest to work.

Well, it's such a good time, I can't really get to the back.

When we tried to get into the woods like that, we came across a strange sight.

"The branches of the trap plant are being pruned?

I don't know why, but the branches of the demonic trap plant that make up the Warcraft Forest were nicely cut off.

Besides, a trap plant in that condition goes on all the way to the back of the woods.

Trap plants are demons that use branches as weapons, so they can't attack you without branches.

I appreciate that in that sense...

"Who the hell imitates such a hassle!?"

I can think of a certain Rookie's face in the words of my friends, but he doesn't use magic.

"That guy would've burned the whole trap plant around here."

Normally in this Warcraft Forest, it is normal not to fight plant-type demons, but to go back while avoiding attacks.

A weirdo who imitates purposefully pruning branches, what the hell is he like?

"Well, thank you. Thank you. Let us use this road until we're halfway to our destination!

Thanks to this, we were able to get into the back of the woods.

And what a sad look the trap plants had with their branches all naked on the road felt.
