The early morning guild is still a little crowded. A number of groups are already waiting in order at the reception, and you can also see adventurers looking for today's request before the bulletin board.

Two people, Jin and Elsa, arrived at the guild, but as soon as they entered the guild, they were called out.

"Good morning, Jin, Elsa"

Rachel is the one who rushes over for a small run and greets me like that with a smile on his face.

"Morning, Rachel. That was fast."

What Jin promised yesterday as meeting time was more than an hour later. It's good because it happened to be this time because Elsa woke up earlier than planned, otherwise I'd just keep her waiting for over an hour.

"I woke up early in the morning, so I came"

Rachel says that with a smile on her face. Jin knows how Rachel feels about looking forward to her first request, and Elsa remembers herself from the past. So they both answered with a smile.

"Ha ha, nice to meet you today, Rachel. Let's stick together."

"Yeah, yeah, I'm looking forward to it too. You're welcome, Rachel."

Jin, and Elsa, speak to Rachel, respectively.

"Yes, thank you. I'll do my best!"

Rachel grabbed her fist in front of her chest just saying "Mmm," and she's in a good mood. That looks familiar to both of us, and makes us laugh even deeper by accident. And the three decided to move in front of the bulletin board and quickly look for a crusade request.

"D-class crusade request, or don't be a little thrilled"

Jin has an E rank and Rachel has an F rank, so I can't accept requests above my rank. But in the case of parties, it is possible to take requests according to the highest rank, or Elsa's D-rank.

It is a great adventure as a gin that has always taken safety precautions. Jin laughs bitterly at such a petty self. Also, on the other hand, Rachel, who is new to the crusade request itself, nods in tune with yeah.

"The basics will remain the same to the extent that the target group becomes a little stronger. Besides, Jin won't have a problem."

Elsa's reputation for gin is high. The one who dealt with the Madwolf mutant alone is in the mood for what now.

"Oh, I'll do my best. Rachel has more than her rank, and she can handle it."

"Me and Jin can use the bow, and we can go both far. You'll be stable because of Rachel's restorative magic, and I don't think the party's unbalanced. Well, if I could, I'd rather have one magician."

To Elsa, who says so, I can't see how she drags yesterday's breakup. Jin smiled unexpectedly.

That was how the three of them watched the bulletin board for a while, in which Jin gave one request as a candidate.

"Hey, how about this?

That's a request for 'Madboa Exorcism'. Madboa is a pig-shaped warcraft that is also a material in Gin's armor. It is nearly twice the size of a regular pig and is about the size of a little calf. A warcraft with troublesome advances and fangs rolling out of its giant. He was witnessed near the village of Kitan, and he wants us to get rid of it before the damage happens.

"Madboa... may I ask why you chose that request?

Madboa is a highly challenging warcraft among D-rank Warcraft. Even though drops are popular, there are other requests for better cost performance. For the future, Elsa wanted to know why Jin dared to choose that request.

"Of all the class D crusade requests, this was the most troublesome one."

Jin's answer is simple. The criterion for judgment is not the fee or crusade, but how troubled or urgent it is. Sure, there were other requests that seemed good in terms of money, but those are things like collecting a couple of Warcraft drops. I know that will be necessary and important, but if there are any other requests that could harm people or their lives, it is Jin's idea to prioritize them.

"Huh, well. I'm good. We can take them down, and it's the leader's policy. How's Rachel?

"I think I'm good too. It's great to help people in need."

That's how they agreed, but there was a mix of words that could not be ignored for Jin.

"Elsa, the leader is Elsa, isn't he? It's the highest rank."

"No, I think Jin deserves a leader. You invited Rachel, and we got together around you."

Rachel nodding at Elsa's words. Jin gets stuck in words for a moment, but when he sighed lightly he bracketed his belly.

"Okay. I took on the leader's case. I'm gonna assume that, but are you sure this is a good request? It's not like you don't have a request for more money, is it?

"No problem. The policy that Jin just said is fundamental to the adventurer. Honestly, it was a good opportunity because I tend to forget."

"I think so too. I mean, I think that's Mr. Jin."

"Okay. But if you have an opinion, you have to tell me, okay? Otherwise, it's not a party."

Each received his consent, and Jin decided to receive "Madboa's Crusade Request". A temporary party is a serious responsibility. Jin pulls herself together.

"(In other words, I don't think there's an atmosphere of extraordinary...)"

Jin decided to shake off the floating idea and line up at the reception.

Compared to the time of reporting, the reception of the request progresses smoothly because there is no assessment. So much so that it was Jin and the others' turn.

"Good morning, Mr. Aria." Madboa's Crusade Request, "please."

"Good morning, Mr. Ginn. Would you like a reception at the party?

"Yes, please"

Following Jin, Elsa and Rachel also pass the Adventurer card to Aria. Aria received it quickly completed the reception process.

"Yes, the reception is complete. Mr. Ginn, Mr. Rachel. Be careful who Elsa is above your rank."

Because of the absence of a smile, Gin feels Aria has a stiffer atmosphere than usual. Jin thought again, trying to stay alert, as Aria said.

"Yes, thank you. Okay, I'm coming!

"Go away. Take care."

Aria finally smiled back, too, to Gin's greeting of departure with a smile. Jin is happy to receive Aria's smile drop-off. The footsteps also left the guild lightly.

On the other hand, Elsa was surprised to see Aria smile for the first time. I had heard all the noise about the proposal and vaguely wondered if we were close, but it was an unexpected fact for Elsa that Aria allowed Jin enough to smile.

"Jin is close to Aria, isn't he?"

A little while out of the guild, Elsa, who was somewhat in a hurry, asks Jin as she walks.

"Hmm? Oh, since the adventurer registration, I've been taking care of Aria. But not even Elsa?

"Sure, but you're not particularly close. I've never seen a smiling face before."

Elsa has always been a Melinda instructor, and only with Aria was the receptionist.

"I've never seen it before, either. It's nice to see Aria as a grown woman."

Rachel, who has come to the guild and is still shallow in the sun, has no consignment because she doesn't even know the rare value of Aria's smile.

"Heh heh. I think Rachel can count on Aria if there's anything she needs to talk to you about when we're gone. Aria takes good care of her."

That's what Jin said based on his own experience, but I really feel unexpected about Elsa.

"Really..."

Gin smiles at Elsa, who says and thinks so.

"Well, you should talk to a lot of people when you get a chance. Not when the receptionist isn't busy."

Jin, who developed this conversation here, changed the subject to 'About Madboa'. Jin used to do the same with his armor material, and I checked the Guild Library for Madboa. In addition, we listened to Elsa's experiences and shared information about Madboa with everyone.

Then, after getting ready to check his belongings, etc., a line headed to the village of Kitan.

The village of Kitan is a village about two hours' walk from the city of Lienz. The same goes for the village of Magna, to which Jin previously headed on a crusade request, but in this world, where the threat of warcraft is great, it is common to have several villages around, mainly fortified cities like Lienz. Each village is provided with security soldiers from the central city, and in case of an emergency in the village, or vice versa, it can be a refuge for villagers. Instead, villages are basically put in charge of primary industries such as agriculture, whose products are consumed by the city or processed to increase value added for trading. Of course, in order to protect rural life, the purchase price is managed at a high level, and it can be said that each of these villages is swept up to make up a large city of Lienz.

Jin and the others on their way to the village deliberately moved off the street, fighting the Warcraft about twice to confirm their collaboration. It took some time to fight, etc., but taking off the street also made it a shortcut, so the time taken is not as different as it was. Basically, Jin and Elsa step forward, and Rachel is a healing magic support. As a result, Jin and the others, who arrived in the village of Kitan while confirming their collaboration, decided to gather Madboa information at the village manager's house as soon as possible.

"... that's all the information on Madboa, right?

"Yes, thank you."

"I did accept. Then I'll come."

After hearing more from the village chief, Jin and the others received the village chief's answer to the last confirmation and decided to leave as soon as possible. Madboa, who was discovered, is one and Jin intends to crusade back to the city of Lienz by the end of the day. Usually it takes time to discover the subject, and it often takes a few days to complete the request. But in the case of gin, at least it won't take long to discover.

Jin, who left the village chief's house, uses [MAP] to search for 'Madboa' as he moves his feet in the direction of the discovery location. Of course not. However, it turns out that Jin's thoughts, which he felt he could afford, were sweet. Madboa was thought to be the only one, but [MAP] had three reactions.

Gins moving in the direction of two points that are relatively solidified for now. And then he went some further, and just made sure there was no one else around, and Jin turned to the two of them and said:

"Listen to me. The number of madbores, but it looks like three, not one. Think of it as my skill."

Knowing that they would be surprised, Jin taught them how many Madboas they had. I won't tell you the details, but I'll tell you exactly what I found out thanks to my skills. Jin thinks he can't reveal all his secrets yet. But that's why I'm not willing to imitate the danger of letting you jump in without preparation.

"I guess that's true...... So, you're not wrong about that number, are you?

As expected, they were two surprised, but Elsa asks Jin, who returned one leg early. There's no way Jin could have lied about this, so it's just a confirmation of numbers.

"Think of me as at least three heads. I still haven't been able to verify if I can spot someone lurking in my [covert] skills."

"Are the three heads solidified?

Rachel, who returned late, also proceeds on the assumption that there are three heads.

"No, the two heads are relatively stiffened up close, but one of them's pretty far apart. I think it is possible to destroy each of the two hardened heads. However, if we prolong it, it could be a streak."

So Jin stares at the two faces, puts one breath down, and then proceeds to the conversation.

"As I said earlier, I'm not sure I can even discover [hidden] with this skill. Think of it as just a guide. Reliance is our own feeling. I hope you're not alarmed."

"Okay." "Okay."

"All right, then let's proceed with caution against making any noise from now on, noting the signs of our respective enemies. I'll take the lead."

That's what Jin says. He moves on with his posture low. And a while later, there was a reaction to Jin's [sign perception].

Jin turns around and signals them both. He then approached the goal carefully as it was and arrived in a position that he could see.

First Jin and Elsa pull the bow. Where they aim sufficiently, each of them nods lightly, and Rachel, who confirms it, signals them. Arrows released at the same time at the right time pierce the madbore and sharpen the HP greatly. And before Madboa noticed this way and stormed in, Jin and Elsa went on to release two arrows, and soon afterwards each took out a weapon for proximity and was ready for interception.

"Pughuaaaa!!

Anger over pain, or a loud mudbore thrust this way. Its power to stare this way with all the white eyeless, bloody red eyeballs characteristic of the Warcraft and thrust in trembling giants is amazing. But when Jin [tempered] himself, he dares to jump forward and stand in the front. Elsa's weapon is a two-handed sword (Great Sword), and Jin is a shield and wooden sword gear. Because Jin's role as a shield in times of need.

Madboa sets his aim on the front gin and comes forward with more speed. I don't feel like being taken directly from the front, no matter how much gin.

"Oh, my God!

Fly [Intimidation] with a loud roar just before. And with all his strength, he slammed the shield of his left hand on the tip of Madboa's nose, quickly turning himself to the right with that momentum.

Madboa loses momentum with a blow from Jin, but doesn't get to him until he falls. But the speed drops. Aim for that gap, and Elsa's sword is slammed into the madboards. And finally, Rachel's hammer smashed Madboa's brain weather, which moved slowly.

"Ugh, tired"

Even as he guards his surroundings, Jin speaks to both of them.

"It's still quick to settle for the three of us. Is Jin hurt?

"Oh, I'm fine. Good luck to Rachel."

Answering Elsa's care with a smile, she speaks out to Rachel, either from the tension of battle or still with a stiff expression.

"Yes, good luck. It was very powerful, but I managed to do it."

Rachel's face finally relaxes.

"How could the last blow have been a big deal?"

Praise Rachel as well as Elsa.

"Yeah, I basically want Rachel to put her protection first in this request, but if you get a chance, like earlier, go for it. And it looks like one of the heads nearby is getting a little closer this way. Let's hide and wait. I'm going to follow the same procedure as before."

Copy that.

And the Jins avoid the front where the madboards come in, hide on the side and wait. The same procedure was followed to secure the second head without risk.

The Jins look back at the battle twice as they recover the material from the two Mad Bores.

"Thanks to Jin, we got ahead of ourselves, so it's much easier to fight later."

Elsa smiles and says. And Rachel tuned in.

"Well, thanks to you, I'm glad no one got hurt"

"Well, I guess this is the pattern that worked best. Don't be alarmed. Let's try again next time. If you encounter something unexpected, let's go back to the basics of each action. I'm defensive, Elsa attacks, Rachel recovers."

Jin says while smiling bitterly. Jin realizes in her long life experience that she should behave more attentively than she should when she is doing well.

"Well, for example, just failing a pre-emptive strike increases the danger. Fortunately, there's only one head left, so it's okay if it takes a little time. Let's go discreetly."

"Yes, I understand. Leave the recovery to me."

It was Jin's statement, which could also be taken as worrying, but we both honestly accepted and agreed. The three who thus take a small pause move towards the last head as they dive in as before. And as before, we were able to discover the subject, but the key subject was very different from before.

"You're lying."

At the end of the unexpected gaze of Jin and the others, there was a giant Madboa figure.

Nearly twice the size of a regular madbore, with a characteristic black disastrous pattern. What existed there was the appearance of a mutant species of Madboa.
