Reincarnated as a Dragon’s Egg ~Lets Aim to Be the Strongest~

52. Departure of a Female Swordsman (side Mertier)

"Eh, Master Mertier, is it okay to take C's request? I'm not in the wrong place with the other members, but it's Yuno who's offering you today?

Yuno complains in the same uncluttered voice as usual to me when I come back from receiving the request.

Yuno is [Canis Huma], or the dog beast man.

It seems that some countries are subject to discrimination, but it only seems to me to be [Earth Huma] with dog ears and tails stuck together.

I just can't help but understand the difference in values.

"The other way around. You're the only escort I can get away with without hesitation."

"That's it Yuno, I'm not sure about my feet!? That doesn't mean I trust you, doesn't it mean I don't have a problem dying?!?

Mmm, good reaction.

It was said to be solid before this, so I tried to crush it a little, but Yuno also gave me a good ride.

It is also important for adventurers to develop this ability to communicate and facilitate relationships.

Without credibility and trust, we won't be able to work together.

Um, Yuno, are you crying a little?

Indeed, Yuno is right, it is somewhat dangerous for Yuno and I to take a C-rank request.

Usually, a C-rank request is a request for difficulty equivalent to a crusade for a C-rank monster alone.

But the request I just took was a one-of-a-kind one.

As far as the contents are concerned, I don't think I would fight demons above the C-rank, and it seemed less dangerous than the stated rank.

Besides, it was a little intriguing.

Location: Noah Forest

Rumors are spreading around the village that I saw a man in the woods who was supposed to be dead.

I want you to make sure it's true and false.

I would like the village near the forest to come first to discuss the details later.

Speaking of running errands for the oldest man in the village, you know where I am.

Because it's just a delicate issue, I want the other villagers to keep quiet about the request.

I knew about Noah's Forest.

There is a small village near Mori.

The villagers see the forest as sacred and I have heard stories about people not very often thinking about breaking into it deep in the woods......

Surely there was a guardian temple in the shallow woods?

Don't you think you should step deeper than that?

The sacred view of the forest has also faded in recent years, and not many adventurers break into Noah's forest, but there's no point in purposefully choosing that one for the hunting grounds in case you think of obstinate with the villagers.

There are rumors that there may be unusual demons and plants because there are many places where people have not been in for a long time.

There are rumors, but I have never heard of its concrete achievements.

It is the general view that even strong monsters are D-rank stops at best and not unlike other forests.

It seems there are some Rock Dragons that are B-rank monsters, but because Rock Dragons have slow feet and warm temperament, it's easy to escape unless you attack them poorly from humans.

So to the extent of exploring the woods, there is no need to engage.

Normally, D-rank is a reasonable request.

There is no point in setting it to a C-rank that requires high rewards.

Are you afraid of being left behind and not having adventurers come because it's rural, or are there more powerful demons in the woods than are said among adventurers?

Normally, it's the former.

If a vicious demon has been discovered recently, I will not write like this.

The crusade of demons will be the main thing rather than the search for ghosts or something.

If it's the former, it's simply a delicious request.

Originally, I was interested in the Noah Forest.

I wanted to go once when I heard the rumors, but I was butting in when I heard from the old folks in the neighboring village that I could see it with surprise.

If you take this request, you get a pardon that you go into the woods at the request of the oldest man in the village.

It's like village approval.

Some sampling and hunting would also be allowed.

"Don't worry. Not as dangerous a request as Yuno thinks."

I point the requisition at Yuno.

Yuno takes it in his hand so that it snaps, and runs his eyes into the text as he grips the grabbed end.

"What is it? I'm looking for this obsession! Absolutely not. This!

"In biased communities such as the countryside and religion, stories that don't have that kind of thump are believable. The true aim of the client would be to 'get rid of the unpleasant rumors that are spreading to the village'.

Perhaps if the adventurer from Wangdu denies it clearly, the strange rumors will fade. I guess I ordered it as a C-rank, thinking it lacked persuasion even when too many amateurs came "

Speculation to persuade Yuno, but I don't think it's off-target.

This convinces me of many inexplicable parts.

"So, hey, Necromancer and I have to..."

"That's impossible. With such a high ranking monster out there, it would be no longer the case that we are doing anything long enough to find a ghost. If the village is gone when we arrive, maybe we can worry about it."

"Yep... then Yuno, can you go home alive?

Apparently Yuno is not in the mood to ride.

I kinda burn these frigid requests.

"I'm sorry I couldn't ask you out, and you have no choice. I thought it would be a good request to make money easier for you."

I have no choice.

I'm not going to work with the uninspiring, and if Yuno doesn't come, I'll let him cancel.

It's my downfall that I got formal permission to go into Noah's woods, and besides, I thought it was an easier request than a reward, and I rushed to take what would have been taken first.

"Oh, um... does C-rank make that much money? Yuno, you never took it."

"Mm, did you? It's got a lower limit of around 30000G."

The moment I mouthed the amount, Yuno strengthened the power of the hand holding the requisition, sparkling his eyes.
