The contents of the request submitted by Tiamo to the Adventurer Guild are as follows:
Even when it comes to securing routes, so far there is no such thing as a path for people to safely cross in the south tree sea, to the extent that beast roads are scattered at best.
In other words, instead of looking for a safe path, we have to cut and pave the way in a real sense.
In that sense, it seems that this request for designation was a rarity for the Adventurer Guild.
However, if you are an adventurer of rank C, you will be asked to do the equivalent of rank A.
Not that it's just an easy job to cut down a tree in the way, but if Nue the Thunderbeast raids you while you work, you have to deal with a Crusade Rank A demon.
As for the rank limit for this request consignment, he admitted it as a special case because he also knew the guild that I had defeated Nue before (* Tiamo had testified).
In addition, Dawn, who brilliantly accomplished this highly challenging request, even said she was considering a major rank update.
Russia is also motivated.
- I flashed the sword in my hand as I looked back at what happened about a week ago, etc.
"Because...... YA!!"
I see giant trees roaring and flanked, and birds flying away resting their wings in the distance.
"I can't lose, either!
When the large spear shook, it sounded loud again.
"We don't have enough firewood yet, so we need to take it home and dry it"
Saying, who cuts off the branches of a fallen tree with the strongest fruit knife I've ever loaned with a familiar hand.
"Come on."
A light hanging voice is even a figure who shows off his absurd moves of pulling through every root of the tree.
In turn it is Mr. Cecil, Lim and Shania.
Mr. Cecil is helping me with my request, and Lim and Shania, who asked for help as adventurers, are carrying out their respective tasks.
Or is Shania's power a pedigree thing?
How much do you want to pull through the roots of the trees?
'It's that way next, brother. We're just gonna make a little detour,' cause if we go straight through here, the big rocks are gonna get in the way. '
"Hmm? Really, okay"
... Well, I'll have to introduce you to who called me 'brother' and so on.
It's like a cat going round on a heating appliance, with a fixed position above my head - a nuco.
I don't want you to get me wrong, but I'm not a cat.
He has short but sharp nails on his hands and feet, and his torso is a brightly colored tiger striped four-legged walking beast.
That's it, okay. I would say nuco correctly.
However, the tail is a snake that moves with a twist.
More importantly, your face feels like an adorable monkey.
Would you have understood?... Yes, Nuco (* female) is a child of Thunderbeast Nue.
I'm the one who gave it a name, but I named it 'Nuco' simply because it's Nue's child.
- We met a few days ago.
When I cut down the tree, I realized there was something shivering my body forward.
The small appearance was due to Thunderbeast Nue, who was wary at first, where the Monster Tame skills in my possession worked.
The young nuco apparently fell off with his mother and was in trouble.
I couldn't even leave Nuco alone, which made it possible to communicate with the will, and when I was walking around the woods with Nuco, I ran into an angry parent after a while.
I'm so excited over there, I have a low LV in Tame skills and I couldn't communicate with the will, I just roared.
Perhaps,
"What did you do to my kid?!? I'll rip him apart and blackburn him with thunder!
Or,
"Oh which one, are you kidding me?!? You imitated my kid licking me, and you swallowed the whole thing!!"
Oh, my God, I think they said that.
... Nuco started desperately convincing his parents that this was the real Monster Parents.
Thus thanks to dozens of persuasions, reconciliation with parents ended in success.
I'm glad Nuco's parents are the bosses around here, and they got a little bit of understanding about the development of the tree sea.
He promised not to interfere if he would not waste logging etc.
As for Nuco, he seems strangely nostalgic for some reason, and is still giving instructions over my head in this way.
"Ok...... and. Let's call it a day."
The sun hasn't fallen yet, but I decide to cut it up early.
Even when we return to the ruins that are our strongholds, there are many things we must do.
"Oh, yeah."
Put your hands on the ground that is decomposing because of cutting or pulling out trees, and I will activate and fix the dirt magic.
Beautifully flattened roads can't even be described as well-maintained streets, but there won't be any trouble for carriages to come and go. I guess I'll be carrying mine resources to the city in the future, so I need this much road.
- Return to the ruins and look around.
The ruins' junction demon props were functioning safely, and there was no way the demons had entered.
By the way, as for the large mana crystals needed to activate the junction demon prop, I bought them myself.
All the property, including the return from Mr. Cecil, the reward for the last request from Tiamo, and the sale of Nue's nails, was enough to exceed 200,000 dalas, but has now been reduced to about half.
"No, this ruin is starting to look better."
After seeing what was going on inside the ruins, Shania snapped at that.
It was originally a place where people lived. It would also be natural to bring in a set of household tools and turn it into a somewhat lifelike setting.
I even packed a bunch of stuff I bought in the city into a magic toolbag and brought it in, but the wooden tables and chairs I keep in the common spaces in my neighborhood were surprisingly made for me by Ren.
The hand seems clever, and with the ingredients and tools, the job is pretty quick.
"Well, I'll cook everyone's meal in the cooking area."
Rim quickly headed to the cooking area when he said he had just left.
The only person in the membership who possesses culinary skills so far is mastering everyone's stomach.
Ray and Len carry animals wandering around the junction to the cooking area for meat.
And the other one, an animal boy named Ted, is also cleaning the interior of the ruins. This is also plainly appreciated.
"Ugh, I'm hungry. I think I'll go to bed until Rim's cooking is done."
"Oh, I'm sorry, but Shania's still studying with me today."
"... yes ~ yes, I thought it would come. Well, don't I hate the way you try to learn dragon language with interest? It's against my doctrine to throw out what I took on once."
- Now, this is how each of us lives in the ruins with his or her own role.
I got an understanding from everyone that I was going to use this site as a base at the beginning, but why bother leaving the city like that? It would be a normal pattern of thought to think about.
Ren and others were happy to say, "That's the one with the secret base, that's Sai!!" but that guy is just special.
No, well, I'm pretty sure I wanted a base where I could calm down.
You can buy my home all over the city, but I don't think it's related enough to live with Ray or Ren, and even to Rim, 'Congratulations. Call me a new home when you get a chance' or something. I can cry.
In that sense, I think it would have been a good idea for me to base a whole huge building like this.
What a dream it is to live together.
And it's free.
In addition, it is a village inhabited together by sub-people and humans that Rik Shao made it.
When I was given a tour of that village, I wished there were more of these villages in the Empire.
Fortunately, there is still room inside the ruins, and if we can ensure security outside the boundaries around the ruins in the future, we can do so on a larger scale.
If anyone wants to live here, they're willing to accept it comfortably (on light scrutiny).
... and well, by explaining the concept of a base available to everyone in this way, a new welcome for residents, everyone but Len was convinced.
Rim, in particular, seems to have sympathized with the term creating a hub where sub-people and humans can live together, working vigorously with a variety of people.
"- Uh, so the junction around the ruins seems to play demons that do harm to the person who activated them. So you don't have to worry about losing your horseman or nuke. Well, I don't know what principles I'm familiar with, either, but try as I taught you yesterday?
Luke the Mounted Beast is a kind of monster called Scale Dragon that is often forgotten.
I was worried that they would play it if it stayed activated, but the ancient legacy is still a fairly convenient substitute.
"Uh... and here we are," he said. Press here at the end... "
"Like, you're right."
Yeah, I knew you didn't need to slap me at the end of the day. I hate to break it, so let's be polite.
"Next time, we'll be reading Dragon Language."
Shania's teaching me dragon language is easy to understand when considered a type of hieroglyph.
There is a font that deliberately collapses a beautiful painting, and that combination generates meaning as a sentence.
Sometimes one word is represented by several combinations, and sometimes decryption fails unless one also remembers a particular combination or the like.
Once upon a time, I was interested in the phrase 'sacred letters' and had an intention of doing it so that I could read Hieroglyphs, but I might be close to that one.
Decrypting the letters of the past without a clue may be a struggle, but it's just comforting to have people in front of you who can actually read them.
Even kanji, such as' eyes' and 'day', were taken as prototypes with human eye shapes and sun shapes as characters, and it is not bitter to remember the foundations and combinations of dragon language compared to even passing through a thick dictionary filled with kanji.
It's more fun to do.
That's not exactly what I could read as a slur in a week, but if I note the letters and combinations that often appear on paper to add meaning, there are more parts of me that I can read if I'm slow as I look at them.
"That's great - you get what you want without exception, even knowledge."
"If this makes you fit, everyone who has the same illness as me is fit."
"Eh, are you sick?
"No... not that kind of physical thing..."
Shall we stop talking about this? I shook it. I was an idiot.
- - Cancun, cancun!!
Just in time, I heard the pan and the balls pounding.
This is a signal that Rim has recently come to use.
"Ah! Looks like you're ready for dinner. That's all for today's study!
Quickly, Shania jumped out of the room.
When I was too late, Shania started reaching for other people's meals, so I hurried to note the new things I had been taught before leaving the room.
On the long wooden table was a large soup pan and freshly baked bread, plus a sautéed meat of animals that my twin sisters and brothers thought had been hunting.
I have prepared a set of seasonings and other dishes for wheat flour, but it is unlikely that you will be so blessed with the environment in which you cook.
But... it's delicious!
Because I also bought sugar and so on, it is a luxury that even desserts are prepared after meals.
"This is because I wanted to eat"
He seemed happy that he baked well, and Rim is carrying a plump crispy baked treat to his mouth and nodding.
Speaking of which... I think Rim and I got along because I gave Dario his special treat. Maybe he's an unexpected eater.
"You know, I need to ask you something,"
"Hmm? What?
"I still have extra wheat and seasonings, but I'm running out of vegetables"
... I see. I didn't buy so many vegetables that I couldn't store for a long time. I appreciate Ray and Ren picking up mountain vegetables native to the woods, but that's not enough either.
"Okay. We're almost done on the road to Amorphas, and we'll be sourcing more."
"Oh, well, I have one suggestion from Oyla, too."
Next on the rim, Ren opened his mouth.
"This ruin. Demonic props are used all over the place, but you need a mana crystal to move it, right?
Exactly. I immediately activated the junction demon prop because I thought it was necessary, but most of the other demon props are still in a state where they remain suspended.
Because if you want to move it all, it's expensive.
"There's a resource-rich mine right there, isn't there?
"... No way, you"
What a big thinker. I wouldn't even think about it that much.
"Huh? No, because mining work will start when the road to Amorphas opens. Then ask Tiamo to discount the mined mana crystals and sell them."
... Ooh, ooh. That's the thing, isn't it?
I knew it. I knew it. Because I was thinking the same thing.
"You'll have contributed quite a bit with this request, maybe you'll give me some discount"
The next time I see Tiamo, I'll say it.
Still... vegetables.
It's easy to go to the city and procure, but it's also easy to buy from the outside all the time.
The ideal is to cultivate extra land around the ruins, so if I can be self-sufficient, I don't have any complaints.
Agriculture...... right.
Was there someone I knew who possessed farming skills?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Recently, there has been a change in skills to the extent that Monster Tame's skill proficiency has increased slightly thanks to Nuco.
Well... for now, after you've completed your current request.
