Episode 83: Bronze Adventurer Lent and Apprentice

"Well, this completes the request, all the time..."

Alize signs the request form, saying so, after two pharmacists and healers drop him off from the orphanage as soon as he enters the creation of the medicine.

It was not Lillian, the representative of the orphanage, who gave me the request, but with the orphans in the orphanage, and his representative is Alize.

I therefore decided to get her to sign.

Nevertheless, this is finally the end of the request.

All you have to do is submit this to the Adventurers Union (Alliance) and you will be rewarded.

It was just a fairly tougher request than usual, that's emotional.

... a piece of copper.

"Oh. Thanks"

When I said that and received the requisition, Alize shook her head and

"This is the one who has to say that. To tell you the truth, I asked... I could have given up, but I almost gave up. There can't be an adventurer who picks" Dragon Blood Flowers "for a single piece of copper coin. But you took it all the way... and really brought me Dragon Blood Flowers. I don't care how much I appreciate it. Really, thank you. Lent, if anything happens, be sure to tell me. Because I'm sure the kids here will help you.... I don't know if you need help."

That's what you told me, so I answer.

"Even for me, there are times when the tread is like one. At that time, I'll let you... and there was someone there who was trying to please you. It's just that it's just... it seems like it's been too much."

I put it this way because Alize seemed slightly disappointed in the conscience of the adventurer.

Of course, I know I didn't mean to.

I just felt like I had a stereotype impression somewhere that adventurers are basically cold.

Well, I can tell her story.

Adventurers who want to go out of their way to the Marsh of Talasks, etc., in fact, because it is a fact that they are rarely there.

But some adventurers like it.

In fact, it looks like someone was trying to take it.

I talked about the content and my strengths, and I just didn't think I could.

I didn't want the adventurer to be disillusioned, so I decided to make a good excuse for that.

To my words, Alize was a little surprised.

"Was...? I knew no one would ever think of taking an orphanage request..."

That's what I said.

Sure, when we first met, Alize seemed to try not to put it on the table much, but there was an atmosphere she didn't expect so much from the adventurers.

I thought the iron class was coming, which may have meant that an adventurer with no great experience would not take such a request except to come without thinking.

With that said, there are others......

"I don't want to, it was..."

"Yeah. I thought you said that Master Lillian's illness was progressing slowly, right? Then I thought if I went to get Dragon Blood Flowers sooner or later because it could take a while. Plus, if you're an adventurer, you can even donate to an orphanage. If anything, I could help... and now I think it might have been shallow. But I can't think of anything else."

That's what I said.

Long story short, we talked about "Evil Accumulation Syndrome" taking five years and ten years to run out of life, and if it's ten years, it feels like Alize, who is about 10 years old now, might manage to hold it until she becomes an adventurer and a single person...

Around it's not impossible, I'm not even saying I haven't thought about it.

The problem is that it takes a lot of training and talent to get that strong, but the talent has magic, and if you worked hard, maybe you could have gone as far as the Tarask Marsh.

"In addition to the fun, you seemed like you had a lot on your mind. I've just lost my temper... but do you give up now?

When I asked concerned, Alize shook her head unexpectedly.

"No, this time, I knew I wanted to be and I felt stronger. Of course, I don't need to pick up Dragon Blood Flowers anymore... but one day I'll be an adventurer, and so, Lent, I want to be an adventurer like you. I can work for people, to such adventurers."

... Yeah, me?

I thought so, but I don't particularly put it in my mouth.

Don't let it out, I say.

"It has to be so full..."

"What are you talking about? Lillian is alive and well thanks to you... and now this orphanage is so clean thanks to you"

And he tells a story he doesn't remember and tilts his neck.

"What do you mean?

Asked so, Alize said,

"Don't you know? Your little mouse on your shoulder (Petite Shrimp) is exterminating the bugs in the orphanage. I used to be a little cockroachy and stuff sometimes, but when I noticed, more carcasses were collected in one place. I wondered what that meant. If you were hiding and watching near that cockroach mountain, the mouse (Petite Shrimp) would come around and leave you. It doesn't matter how much you get rid of it, it's coming out of somewhere. Thank you."

Apparently, Adele's men were active in strange places.

They're kind of high-performance guys for nothing... well, if that's what you mean.

But I wondered why, and I looked into Adele's eyes, and they would have worked hard because they wanted to keep their beds clean, and I got a reply back.

Well, isn't it something for people?

But the result is for Alize and the others, so maybe we were able to have just the right symbiotic relationship.

"I didn't even try... but it's not my fault."

"Still nothing would have changed without you."

Anyway, even in denial, Alize was stubborn.

I'm rooted in the boulder, too.

"... ok... Well, you should like it. It's just, you know, if you're really up to it, you should stop doing that. I don't know what to do, but I need to find Kihon by then."

It is a business where few fools come out of the village and register as they are.

That's why it was practical advice.

Alize nodded at this,

"But how do I train?

Ask.

I...

"There are many more. It's just like this... I can tell you when there's something there."

That's what I said.

I've never had an apprentice, but that's what I've been in charge of, such as courses for newcomers to the Adventurers' Union (Alliance).

With as little knowledge and skill as a rookie would need, I was confident I could teach.

And then...

"If you're with Mahogany, you'd better be with Mahogany... because I'm just there... you can try hitting Sushi Shirai"

Who is it about, Lorraine?

She seems to be busy with research trivialities every day, but when she's full of them, she's thoroughly full of them, so I thought I'd just give her a little time like that and ask Alize if she could hit me.

to this. Alize, reluctantly,

"... but I, the money..."

Well, then I guess so.

He's an orphanage kid, and he can only send out copper coins for requests.

There can't be money or anything.

Tuition payable to magicians is often expensive.

I hope Lorraine doesn't need any money.

but nothing good about that.

"Don't do it."

"You can't do that."

"That said, I have an amulet"

"What?"

"I, rather, will. So when you're ready to go back, you know."

Well, this neighborhood is about to drop.

Even she doesn't need to do any more.

Well, it brings in the color of the application at the point of saying no interest, but I don't really care about that.

Because

"... then, please. But I'll turn on the interest and give it back. When you're an adventurer and you can make money... hey, that's okay?

Because I thought you'd say so.

I snorted,

So you're saying, "Well, I'm sorry for your loss."

When she said that and offered her hand, Alize shook it hard.
