The Road to One Day Be the Strongest

Early the next morning.

I told Sophia, who had been running wild all morning, what I should do today in front of the inn.

"First about qualifying, but the day after tomorrow. In the meantime, all we need to do is create a store that can move around for now. Deciding what to cook. And..."

─ ─ Obtaining ingredients.

That's what I whine about and change into combat clothes. [M]

As for the mobile store, you can use my "primitive magic" for a little bit. I don't even need to buy it.

As for the dishes…, at this time of year, with lots of shops lined up, my belly is filled to some degree, and I still get limited access to things that I would like to try - even more so if I squeeze them under conditions. That's likely to be decided if we talk until we get to our first destination (...).

There's only one thing I can do if I do.

"All right, let's go... to the Adventurer Alliance."

So we grumbled and headed to the Adventurer Alliance.

Why should I go to the Adventurer Alliance now?

The reason is simple. Because Nail told me this the other day.

"Mr. Ginn!? also, maybe three years after i stopped going guild soon!?

And.

I inclined my neck at first to the words, but, uh, these words came up in my brain.

─ ─ Deadline between receipt of the request and the next request.

Surely it's three years since that's SS rank.

If you notice, the cold sweat is passing through your cheeks, and this is how Nail screamed when she saw it.

'Wow, are you going to make me unemployed!?'.

No.

Even I argued, "You're in law enforcement for once," right? But when I said that, 'You're not paying me, are you?' he kicked me. Damn, the nail one.

That's why, less than three years later, I was asked to do something in the guild, and then I was going to get some ingredients.

But...

"Too peaceful..."

Yes, it's too peaceful.

No, it's certainly a good thing it's peaceful. Excellent.

But you think it's too peaceful to have 'Goblin Crusade' or 'Merchant Guard' or 'Herb Collection' on the requisition board?

It's such a 'ingredient!?' And even if all you have left is a request like that, that's the trouble.

"What are we going to do..., we're just going to connect with herb collection or something, and we're going away looking for food in a separate case?

Or do you do something with just the contents of the item box?

My item box contains a bunch of oaks that I assassinated three years ago and a bunch of oaks that I hunted a few days before Promise Day.

I'm sure we can do enough of that.

"Even if it's just pork..."

"Right...... Stick it in a skewer and bake it, and you can have just one dish, but do you say that it lacks impact"

Well, it's Dawn Ho's dish. Even if it's not impactful, if only one customer were available, it would definitely be sold out.

That said, when Dawn Ho and I were worried, the normal adventurer finally started coming into the guild.

But when I saw it, I frowned.

Adventurers are gathering from all continents in today's harbour country.

That's because requests arrive to collect ingredients, and because a number of popular stores compete in food competitions.

But an adventurer is basically a bunch of rough guys. I had to know when I was famous three years ago.

I'm less conspicuous than I am.

"Whoa? Gehaha! It's early in the morning, isn't it? Harlem's brother, huh?

─ ─ Involvement, etc., is visible.

When I turned my gaze backwards, a group of red-faced people walked up to me, hick-hicking and snuggling, drinking from the morning.

My party now is Kyoka, Dawn Ho, and Eloise.

Nair and Millie are going to hang with the guild for any other requests, and Sophia is in the monster house because she remains stunned with her morning iron fist.

Well, Hate and none of our current members are weaker than the others.

"Fuck...... is that it? It's been three years, so you're saying you can start over with your promise, too?

That's what I say. [M]

How many times has this happened?

Sure enough, you disappeared for three years. I know what's wrong with you.

But that's why it's yesterday's array and sole, and today's collection, three consecutive promises. How hatchy is that? My destiny.

When I sighed thinking about it, I heard a familiar voice coming from somewhere.

"Hurray! Boss! You're such a horny Harlem son of a bitch. Let's crush it! How hard I struggled because of the tatami tatami on my own! Pay for your sins with it!

"Whoa! That's right... who?

The 'boss' was in tune with the voice for a moment, but he immediately looked at the Soitz beside him and asked so.

There was a... a penguin.

Not as tall as my shoulders. That sloppy body.

Its long mouth gleams with glitter.

Tiny, black eyes like beeballs.

You can't possibly see it wrong - it's him.

"Give me the money! Let's eat! Bring the clan back to life! It also stands out -!!

"... why are you here, Asta"

Asta, the owner of the clothing store, was there.

Adventurers who eventually escaped Asta's spookiness.

The only thing left was Asta, angry but insignificant in recommending the product, and us staring at it with a jittery gaze.

"Hey, I've been thinking about this for a while, but who is Mr. Asta? No matter how hard I try, they cover it up."

"Oh, that wasn't Mephis...... Because I work hard with all my guts ~"

Hey, he totally said 'Mephisto' right now, didn't he? I didn't tell you, but I almost told you, didn't I?

When I turned a jittery glance at Asta, who moves his wings, I decided to add further pursuit.

"Hey Asta. You. Why are you here?

"Oh, that wasn't Mephis...... A friend of mine suddenly brought me here ~. I wonder if you could repay my debt. Ah, what a tremendous face you have if you think about it! The boulder is Mephi...... he is my friend!

Hey, you said he was a friend of that Mephisto now, right?

I look softly...

"You... you didn't have so many friends to make that one a friend... Gu Gu"

"Why are you crying!?

Tears overflowed by accident.

'Cause you're such a disgusting facial punk, aren't you? I would choose my own path if I were to be friends like that. Yeah.

If he noticed, he was wiping tears with Kyoka next door until the day and night, and Eloise was turning his gaze to Asta to see something pathetic.

"Mr. Asta......, with that personality ○ ○ ○ ○ Mephisto...... Hey, no, it's nothing. I'm fine, right? But... I don't know if I can recommend it as an acquaintance..."

"Gosh, it's Asta... I don't know, but you have to try."

"Yeah... I forgot what a mephisto I was, but I think I was some kind of sketchy guy... You can't be friends like that...?

It seems terrible. Zarami.

And that was when I thought about it.

Hilarious!

My smartphone rings and tells me I'm getting an email.

When I take out my smartphone with a nigga laugh, I still don't know what to do with rumors. [M]

─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─

Mephistopheles

Re. Can I cry

I won't go if I'm stirred up.

I won't go no matter how much I'm stirred up.

Stretch, be prepared. It makes you look absolutely terrible.

─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─

"" "Chip" "

Moment after moment, when I saw it, Kyoka, White Night sounded my tongue and Eloise heard it make me jump my body freaking out.

"What, eh? Hey, what!? Everybody, look at me like that!

In fact, I also think Eloise said the worst, or definitely inflicted an irreparable wound on Mephisto's heart, but apparently she was unconscious, unlike us.

Well, on the other hand, we were doing it in the mood of 'I'll crusade you if you come out stirring', and, well, me and Kyoka, and Mephisto's answer, which didn't show up in a detour in front of the white night's alignment, was the exemplary answer itself.

Well, the three of us have gotten pretty fucked up over the last three years. Mephisto is also in boulders...

"Master, what about 'Penguin Meat Cooked Rice - Served with the Blood of the Great Devil'"

Whoa. Looks like the worst one left here.

That also included Asta the boulder trembling and lagging behind,

"... ah"

Fu, Kyoka's voice sounded as if she remembered something.

We wondered and turned our gaze to Kyoka...

"Surely Mr. Asta also did a bakery, didn't he? Then why don't you even make an oak meat burger?

"Can you make money!?

Asta returned the words immediately.
