─ ─ Villain Warrant Lady VS Green Devil

I've done it today, adventurer guild!

Come on, man, make some money! Even today, I have money on my hands!

"Whoa. You're Astrid. Long time no see."

"Ah! Mr. Petra! Long time no see!

When I showed my face to the Adventurer Guild, Petra, who became familiar with me, called out to me. Since that day, we have been working together on a quest to collect herbs and exterminate vermin, and have been close to each other for a long time.

By the way, do you think Petra and the others have expanded their quest to order?

"Mr. Petra, I haven't seen you for a while, but where have you been going?

"I was on a bit of an expedition. The Garm Mountains Warcraft Survey."

Heh. Is there an expedition or something?

I'd like to try it too. Rocked by a carriage, he goes down the street, down the roadless road, tents set up and sprinkled dried meat into soup, where he eats with hard-baked bread. Then, at night, guard against enemy attacks and gaze into the darkness under the starry sky.

Hmm! The blood from the former outdoor activity department is making a scene!

But in addition to being a student, I don't tell your father that I'm a helpful magician, so I can only participate in day quests... Sad.

"So there was something in the Garm Mountains."

"The other way around. He was gone. There should be a flaming dragon, but the nest was empty"

What are you scared of?

"What's the meaning of this?

"Maybe, but I'm thinking you left the nest for breeding. Dragons travel breeding from time to time. Well, this is troublesome. I flew to the Empire for a while."

Wow! That's not good.

No, wait. If I defeat that dragon, will I get the name of a dragon slayer? I've lived in the mood to war the Empire against me tomorrow, but fighting the Dragon may not be a bad idea.

"Well, humans can't predict where they're going to travel."

Tell him so. Mr. Petra laughed small.

"Oh. Isn't that Astrid? Long time no see."

"Long time no see, Mr. Gertrude"

If that's what you're talking about, Mr. Gertrude and Mr. Ernesta showed up.

"Mr. Gertrude. Can I take any quests today?

"Yeah. That's my intention. Thank you, sir. You see a suspicious figure in a nobleman-owned mountain, which means you're investigating it."

"Suspicious Shadow..."

Oh, it's not gonna be a haunt, is it? I don't like haunts because I can't kill them with lead balls......

"The only place I can think of is a goblin."

"Maybe a bandit."

Oh, you don't have any chance of haunting me, do you? I'm relieved.

"I don't know. Astrid, can you help me with this quest and hire me as a magician? The other side is noble, and the reward is much higher."

"Never!"

So join the quest at this Mr. Gertrude party.

"Is that it? Astrid, are you going to Gertrude's party?

"Yes, I will be attending Mr. Gertrude's party this time"

It is known that I have a high Brad Magic ability and an advantage in firearms for middle school students, and in the Adventurer Guild I am a little popular. People at various parties are starting to call me out.

As much as I really appreciate it because the Adventurer Guild seems to lack magicians and even little daughters like me generously share the rewards almost equally. Perhaps thanks to Mr Gertrude and the others for spreading the rumors. I have to thank you.

"Gertrude. Is your party all right?

"Oh. We'll figure it out. Whether it was a bandit or a goblin. And Astrid will be here this time."

I feel trusted - and I love it, Mr. Gertrude.

What a 100,000 mark this quest reward is. As usual, it will be a 20% share, and what a 20,000 mark my share is. You did it. I made a lot of money. I'm already over 50 grand a month for Dr. Bernhardt as a student.

Well, I've brought the same firearms as usual, and let's just say good luck!

…………………

…………………

So we came to something called a noble-owned mountain.

Hmm. Is that like the hunting ground our father has? But there's no sign of an animal. We do not hear the footsteps of the sika or the sound of going up the squirrel tree, and from time to time, the sound of the birds just sounds. That's a little creepy.

"The client asks us to know who the shadow is and, if it was harmful, to eliminate it. Goblins are easy, but being a bandit can be a bit of a hassle."

"Right. Goblins don't use bows, but bandits use bows"

I've only read about goblins in the drawings, but everything seems to be about the back length of an elementary school student, green skinned, and intelligent enough to attack me using spears made of bows and trees. You're smarter than a monkey. Why don't we catch one and use it as an experimental material...

"Well, in the usual formation,"

"Copy that."

Mr. Gertrude's party still doesn't have a fourth official member, so it's my job and Mr. Petra's job to protect the sides. If I don't find a full member soon, my survival rate will be reduced.

"Mr. Gertrude, don't you hire a fourth companion?

"Oh. The fourth one is open for the sorcerer. I know what you're trying to say. You want to say it's dangerous to leave the side to Petra alone, right?

Well, Mr. Gertrude knew the problem.

"These threesomes are from the same orphanage. I climbed up the Adventurer Alliance from the bottom level. That's why it's also strong binding. I don't want the right people in there."

"Was that so……………"

"Oh. Don't worry. I think Astrid is one of our most important people. He said we were an indispensable companion."

I thought that the leftovers might have accidentally entered and made me feel uncomfortable, but Mr. Gertrude tells me so gently.

"That's right. Rest assured."

"As much as I'd like you to officially become a member when you graduate from school."

Ooh. Mr. Ernesta and Mr. Petra are sweet! I guess I'll be an adventurer too if I crush your house. But say goodbye to Mr. Gertrude and the others because he's going to be deported from the country... Think about it that way. I want to avoid the ruin flag at all costs.

"Me, you'll do your best!

"Shit. Don't be too loud."

"Su, excuse me"

When I conveyed my intentions in good momentum, I became angry.

"Petra. Any sign of anything?

"I found some footprints. But this isn't a goblin. Not even a bandit."

Mr. Petra is highly defensive. They find traces of their enemies accurately even during this evening. Though I say I am the best on perimeter alert alone.

But by getting used to combat like this, I will be able to fight like Mr. Gertrude and the others in the future. If you think about it, you can make money, and you can train in action. A magician is a really good part-time job.

"… Are you kidding me, Oak?

"Maybe. Or an orga."

The oak is only present in the drawings. He says he eats humans with ferocity. You think I'm going to use a weapon that I took from a human being with green skin, too? This is also something I would like to use as an experimental material...

By the way, I've fought Griffon once since then, Cocatrice four times and Wyburn about three times. There seem to be many demons in this hand.

But what do you mean you didn't come across the most popular goblins or orcs?

Speaking of which, the party I helped with the magician was pretty high. When you're also a high-level adventurer, don't you fight goblins and orcs or something?

"That's unusual. What is an oak? I thought it was extinct."

"Oh. Unusual. Rare next to goblins."

Huh? Extinct?

"Are orcs and goblins on the verge of extinction?

"Oh. I ordered the Knights and Adventurers to sweep the goblins and oaks with the lives of my predecessors - Wilhelm II. Because they're getting too many and smarter, they actually started mimicking human tools, and there were many examples of junior adventurers and local villagers being attacked."

Wow. Warcraft Genocide? If this were Earth, there would have been a movement to protect the intelligent animals, orcs and goblins, but I'm glad there's no such thing as a world.

"But neither the Knights nor the Adventurers could kill all the goblins. Goblins still lurk in breath after fleeing to Ostraich and other places where extinction orders have not yet been issued or trapped in such mountains"

Isn't the Genocide successful?

"The Ostraich people seem to think about keeping goblins and oaks and making them into an army. You have to be able to achieve that."

"Heh. Are you an army of goblins or oaks?"

Do you want me to carry a mine and hit an enemy tank?

"Well, that's a plus to the reward if you knock down a bunch of oaks anyway. The extinction order issued by Wilhelm II is still alive. The Quest Orderer's nobility and subsidies from the state are going to be pretty good."

"Whoa! How much for the subsidy, by the way?

"If you destroy the herd, it's 80,000 marks."

80,000 marks! Oh, my God. Isn't that an amount comparable to the quest reward?

"Instead, I have to completely destroy it."

"That's true. It could be a bit of a hassle."

Mr. Petra and Mr. Ernesta don't seem very enthusiastic about riding.

"But if quests are harmful, it's your job to exterminate them, isn't it? Then why don't you think it's one of your jobs and get rid of it?

"That's right. Do it."

All right, all right. Now my reward is up.

"Then we move on. Petra, follow the trail."

"Aye."

At Mr. Gertrude's direction, Mr. Petra follows in the footsteps and we follow them.

"It's about time. It smells. It smells like filthy people."

That's what Mr. Petra tells us, so we stop.

"Petra, can I count on scouts?

"Aye."

At Mr. Gertrude's direction, Mr. Petra lowered herself and moved forward. The rest of us form a circle and guard our surroundings. I wish there were Claymore anti-personnel mines at times like this.

"I've seen it."

That's how Mr. Petra came back.

"How'd it go?

"There's a herd of oaks about 50 meters from here. The number is around 20, and the armament isn't that far. It must be a new herd."

Mr. Gertrude asks, but Mr. Petra tells him so and returns it.

"Okay. Then, set it up. If it's around 20 bodies, we should be able to put it down."

"Right. If you make money from an oak crusade, I'd love a treat for the first time in a long time."

Mr Gertrude and Mr Ernesta nod at Mr Petra's words.

I've been carrying a lot of bullets, too, so there's no problem.

"Astrid. I don't know how your weapon works, but it must be like a crossbow that can be fired in a row. Then you can attack me from the side with Petra while me and Ernesta call in the herd?

"Copy that. Leave it to me."

Mr. Gertrude already understands how to fight with me incorporated. As much as I am grateful to fight. Because I didn't feel like I was taking advantage of my strengths when I worked with other parties.

"Okay, I'll set you up. How many minutes can we go around on the side?

"Three minutes is enough."

I have the same ability to trample the ground as Mr. Petra!

Well, I depend on Blood Magic......

"All right. Operation's on."

Copy that.

Me and Mr. Gertrude break up, and I go around to the side of the orc herd with Mr. Petra and the others. But what does it look like to be an oak? I didn't know the drawings had no illustrations on them.

"Look, that's the orc herd."

"Whoa? That's exactly the oak…………………."

A sharp fang sticking out of his mouth on a pig-like face. He is about 2 meters tall and armed with a weapon that would have taken it from a human being, as the drawings say. He doesn't look like a savvy creature all the time, but he has the brains to just take the tools and use them.

Hmm. That's great as an experimental animal.

"Mr. Petra. Can't you catch him?

"Huh? What are you gonna do with an oak? And if we don't wipe it out, there's no subsidies from the state."

"Aah………. You did………"

Besides, the oak is too big to keep in our room.

"If it's a goblin or something, can I buy it somewhere?

"No. It's eradicated from the side I found because an extinction order was issued. What are you gonna do with a goblin in the first place? They're surprisingly dangerous, aren't they?

I can't even buy goblins. This world is intelligent.

"Now it should be time for the Gertruts to make a move. Get ready."

"Jesus, Mam!

I've already got two legs of a machine gun on the ground, ready to fire. If you're from the top of the hill with this Mr. Petra, you can beat a bunch of orcs.

"Oops. Quickly, Gertrude and Ernesta set it up."

"Oh. You're raiding."

As we looked down, Mr. Gertrude and Mr. Ernesta, who were hiding in the bushes, jumped out and stormed the herd of oaks resolutely.

The herd of oaks rushes to the sudden attack, heading for interception with no control or anything.

"Let's do it, Astrid"

Copy that.

We are also launching an attack while Mr. Gertrude and the others draw their enemies. Mr. Petra watches the two arrows before releasing them, and I pull the machine gun trigger.

Machine guns are silent thanks to Blau. I don't even know where I'm being attacked from, and the poor pig from the right to the left - the machine gun that set up the orc herd in Torchica, Omaha Beach - sends its best regards.

"That's really awesome. Can you buy it somewhere?

"No. I have no prospect of buying it at the moment"

If we sell machine guns to a world without tanks, there will be massive casualties. That's what happens at the beginning of World War I.

Machine guns are now just mine to protect the balance of power in the world. I can't concede the advantage that I'm the only one with the immense firepower of a machine gun on the day of ruin that should come!

"It's time to wipe out the orc herd."

"Yeah. If Gertrude and Ernesta sweep the rest, it's over."

When I was having such a conversation with Mr. Petra, there were signs of something approaching from above. I can feel a storm coming down like something huge.

"Ma, master! It's dangerous! It's..."

"Dragon!?

It's the undisputed dragon that's descending from the sky!

"Damn it. Never do anything, Astrid. If I didn't want to be his dinner."

"Wow, I know."

Not the size person I can serve.

With a little jet passenger airline-like size, the monster covered in bright red scales descended into a herd of oaks where Mr. Gertrude and Mr. Ernesta left safely and began to devour the oak.

"Shit. You can't expect a subsidy from the state with this."

Mr. Petra is happy to say that he can afford it, but I am freaked out by the rightening of the fear in front of me.

But I'm not supposed to be the one you can't defeat. It's raw. Wouldn't it be possible to defeat a 120-millimeter rifle cannon if you visited it?

I can defeat you! The title of Dragon Slayer is mine!

"Mr. Petra. Naturally, there's gonna be a dragon crusade quest, right?

"Oh. You'll get out.... Are you going to join us?

"I intend to."

I'll do it! This dragon will be targeted for live ammunition practice shooting before it fights a country that wants to destroy me!

"You really are a bloody guy. Well, we're eligible to participate in the dragon exorcism, and I'll invite you when I do. Let's split the mountains with plenty of rewards."

"Nice, nice!

Whew! I wonder if Heaven knows we can even get a reward for live ammunition exercises!

"Oops. Welcome home."

The dragon, which ate up the body of the oak that was on the ground, began winging again and left with the storm.

"Hih! Master! I'm not exorcising dragons or anything! It's not enough no matter how many lives you have! Dragons benefit from fire and wind spirits and use elemental magic!

"Dragons also use magic?

I leaned my neck as Blau screamed.

"Oh. The dragons use magic according to their attributes. The flaming dragon was an elemental of fire and wind, the earth dragon is soil, and the water dragon is water and wind."

"It's pathetic that only one elemental loves you, Grounddragon..."

Dragon, you look plain.

"Then let's go downstairs and rendezvous with the Gertrudes. The job is done."

Copy that.

This is how our quest ended.

There was no subsidy from the state because the Flaming Dragon devoured the body, but only a small amount of Flaming Dragon eyewitness testimony resulted in a special reward.

With the discovery of a flaming dragon that was missing in a mountain of nobility close to the imperial capital, rumors have begun that the country will soon order a quest for a dragon crusade from the Adventurer Guild.

God, may the day of the Flaming Dragon Crusade be the holiday of the weekend…….
