To Deprive a Deprived Person

Episode 88: The Users The Users

"This will be the C-rank guild card."

Yu goes to the item pouch when he receives a silver guild card from Colette. When Nina and Lena receive their guild cards, they grin uncontrollably at their loose cheeks. Marifa had gone to Mago's store to deliver the potion and pick up the price.

Colette coughs like a cohon and takes a deep breath.

"You can use the Adventurer Alliance warehouse as a reward for your C-Rank Guild Card!

It is recommended, especially when it comes to money, because it is also possible to withdraw from other branches. Be sure to take this opportunity to deposit your money with the Adventurer Guild. Don't worry about the safety aspects. In the past, even as numerous criminals raid for the warehouse of Adventurer Alliance, it is a secure, safe and iron-walled Adventurer warehouse that is all being repelled! And the royalties are free!

Colette had a reason to be hot valve. If you are a C-rank adventurer, you can make more money than the general public. On the other hand, there are many careless adventurers about money, and there is little talk of having no money on hand when injuries during scattered adventures originally retire, and reaching an unfortunate end.

Adventurers Guild actively recommends depositing money with adventurers so that such things don't happen. Of course, the Adventurer Alliance side also benefits. Money deposited from adventurers is enormous, and profits from lending money and buying and selling land are turned around to the operation of the Adventurer Alliance.

Incidentally, a receptionist who has successfully solicited an adventurer is given 1% of the amount deposited as a reward. The receptionist, who dictated ten A-rank adventurers in the Adventurers Guild of the Free Nation of Harmeln and became a big merchant based on rewards, is an admirer from the receptionists of each branch.

But Colette's purpose is not to reward, but to worry about Yu and the others...

"Mr. Colette, how much has the guild instructed you to deposit?

Yu asks Colette a slightly mean question. Nina and Lena, who were looking at the guild card, also turn their gaze to Colette.

When Colette smiles the same way she always smiles at Yu's questions.

"I don't care how much. This is like insurance when something happens to Mr. Yu and the others. We just need you to keep the amount Yu and the others can't help it."

Yu stares at Colette for a while. Colette hasn't changed since she came to the city Cummer. I always think about others. without segregating against anyone, regardless of race, appearance or gender. It was one of the reasons Colette was loved by many adventurers.

"Yu, Mr. Yu? It's kind of embarrassing to be so stuck."

Yu, annoyed by Colette's words, apologizes and tries to take the money in his hand out of the item pouch.

"I'm sorry to take you in, but would you like a moment?"

When Yu and the others looked back, there stood a musculoskeletal dwarf and a middle-aged man who had grown his mustache into a Scotch shape.

"Mr. Lopus to Mr. Bernt, is it an order for a quest? Then we need you to keep your order."

"Hey, isn't that Dwarf Bernt the Blacksmith?"

"That's the lops store owner over there. I can't believe those two are coming to the Adventurer Alliance."

The adventurers around them whisper to each other as they look at the flickering, yu and the others. The muscular dwarf from the content is Bernt, the city camer's largest blacksmith, who also serves as the guild leader for the blacksmith guild. The skinny man stroking the beard beside him was the owner of the lops store, and this was also a major store in the city camer.

"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.

"To Mr. Yu?"

"I see. Recently, the Spiritual Tree Branch was sold from the Adventurer's Alliance to the Shop of Noun. Spiritual tree branches go well with canes and bows, but they can't be obtained inside around the city of Cummer, so I'm in trouble with this sale.

I looked it up and found out that an adventurer named Yu had obtained it and sold it to the Adventurer Guild. I'm going to ask the Adventurer's Alliance for a face-to-face deal with Lord Lops. "

"Then order your quest from the Adventurer Alliance."

"Heh heh, we're looking for a steady delivery of spiritual tree branches. Weapons and protective equipment made of spiritual tree branches are endowed with spiritual skills and are bought and sold for a high price. Every blacksmith wants to get one of those materials as much as he can get out of his throat.

Did you find the branches of the spirit tree from the discovered labyrinth this time? I've also heard from Yu that you found the labyrinth. "

Although direct interaction between adventurers and shops is not an issue, various problems have arisen in the past, such as the taking away of contract fees, those who take on more than their own merits and die, and the clientele and adventurers, which were solved by the adventurer guild in between.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Lopus and I am the owner of the Lopus store. This is Bernt, the blacksmith who has the lops store unloading weapons and protective equipment. Of course, you know that, right?

Quickly, may I have a word with you here? "

Lopus leads Yu and the others to the table. Speak purposefully in the Adventurer's Guild and talk at a table in the Adventurer's Guild, not elsewhere or in a separate room. From the Adventurer Guild, you take away profits and good adventurers. The same goes for being declared. In fact some receptionists and guild officials didn't look good.

But the Lopus himself didn't seem to think the fine dust was bad either, and the arrogant part of the Lopus was hidden from view. Next to the lops, Bernt shakes his head slightly as he exhales lightly.

"Wow, I'll be there too! I'm worried about Yu and the others."

Lops looks blatantly unpleasant and peeks at Yu's expression.

"I don't mind. As an Adventurer's Guild, you'll want to mediate so you don't get into trouble."

"That's right! I have no intention."

When Yu and the others get to their seats, Lopus takes the cloth bag out of the item pouch and flips it over. Gold and silver coins pour out of the cloth bag as they make noise on the table.

When the listening adventurers open their eyes to the sight and make noise, Lopus is satisfied with an obnoxious grin at the reaction around him. Yu looks at Lopus like that with cold eyes, Nina holds her surprise ears to the loud noise, and Lena starts reading the book to see if she's lost interest at a glance. Colette panicked and looked alternately at Lopus and Yu's face.

"I've got 9 million madka for you that I can't (...) get over here. for three months as a contract fee of three million a month. Aside from the contract fee, you pay a million for one branch of spirit tree, and five million for the top branches of spirit tree.

I think it's a broken price, right? If only I could make 1.5 million madka a month with a D-rank adventurer in line. If a freshly C-ranked adventurer misses the opportunity to contract exclusively with my shop, there will be no future. "

Lopus didn't even seem to think the dust would turn him down, and he had already prepared it up to the contract.

"Mr. Lopus, can I talk to you for a second?"

"Yeah. Let's build a relationship that's beneficial to both sides."

"I refuse to talk about this one."

Lopus smiles invincibly at Yu's words without surprise.

"Hehe, all adventurers react the same, don't they?

That's how you say no first, and you want to catch the price of the contract fee and the reward, but you won't.

As I said at the outset, this proposal is broken. If you're an adventurer, you'll want to get your hands off your throat. "

When Lopus puts his hands together and attaches them to his jaw, he sends his gaze to Yu instead of telling him to sign the contract as soon as possible. Bernt, lying beside him, has been meditating on his eyes in silence since earlier.

"Mr. Lops, I'm not willing to catch you. I thought I'd go home sooner than that."

Yu urged him to return to Lopus for a reason. He was capturing a reaction running toward the Adventurer Guild to Yu's restoration of the Skynet. Someone knew Yu from the rhythm of running, stature and breathing.

"Heh... heh, shouldn't adventurer style be on the diagram too much? I am the owner of the Lopus store. Such an attitude..."

Where Lopus blushed and reinforced his narrative from the look he could afford, the door to the Adventurer Guild opens with momentum.

When adventurers and receptionists in the Adventurer Alliance turned their gaze to you, there was a dark elf girl standing there. Was the girl in the dark elf in too much hurry? Her hair was messy. Sweat was rising on her forehead, but when she fixed her hair and clothes and found Yu, she smiled.

"Master, thank you for waiting"

"I haven't waited that long. You didn't have to rush home..."

"That's not why. This one... Ah."

Marifa raised her voice in an attitude and dozens of coins popped out of the item pouch (...).

When Lops sees a coin rolling down on the table, his expression gradually rises strong and vigorous.

"And it's a white gold coin!?

At the same time as Lopus' shouts, the adventurers around him shout louder than when Lopus sprinkled gold and silver coins.

"Excuse me. By the way, what is this... what is the money?

Yu sighs and whines about how white gold coins can pop out of the item pouch. Yu thinks as he looks at Lopus that it has been wasted urging him to return to Lopus so that this does not happen (...). With Yu and his gaze in place, Lopus had his first confidence disappeared, alternating between white gold coins and Yu's face, and an adventurer who became C-ranked... impossible, etc., grumbled.

"Mr. Lops, as you can see, I'm not having any trouble with the money. From you I felt from every inch of the word that I was doing it using adventurers, but don't get me wrong. Adventurers are using it. Without the material that the adventurer literally gathered at the stake of his life, your shop would be in trouble too."

"Ki... it's a trick! Such a disgrace to me... you will always regret this!

Lops rushes to collect gold and silver coins and walks away from the Adventurer's Guild to escape. I hear words from the adventurers around me like, "I feel good."

"Did you do something wrong to Lord Lopus? Lord Yu, would you consider a private matter?"

Untie the arm that Bernt had put together and bow his head in silence without my involvement until now.

"I thought you said no to that story."

"It started when they turned me down. Lord Lopus is a little troubled, but he's not a bad guy, so forgive him."

Unlike Lopus, Bernt was even making a likable atmosphere now, regardless of his first impression.

"I don't think that's a bad story. I don't know what to say to a steady income myself, but it's also huge to be able to connect with Nong. If you bring in the weapons, protective equipment and materials you want, you can build them first."

"I want you to be an exclusive blacksmith."

"I know. Woods... he can't. Because -"

"I don't have the skills to build it"

Bernt has a surprising look on Yu's words.

"Did you know? Wouldn't it have been better if it had become exclusive to Non?"

"Using certain materials will add skills.

Even skilled blacksmiths should have 50% of their skills in the first place, and they cannot choose the skills that come with them unless they are the highest class blacksmiths. That doesn't determine the value of a blacksmith (grandma) "

Bernt laughs suddenly wondering if he had kept his mouth shut for a while. Again to a loud laugh, Nina is surprised and Colette blocks her ears, too. Marifa, who had a good ear, was disguised as calm, but seemed quite indulgent because her mouth angle was subtly raised and cracked.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Right, well, that certainly doesn't matter to blacksmiths (...).

It's good to be here today. If you have any problems, you can come to Noon's. "

What was good about it. Bernt was in a good mood and left the Adventurer Alliance behind.

"Marifa, did you ask Mago?

"Sorry"

"I'm not mad at you, but you weren't very complimented. And I suck at acting."

Nina strokes Marifa's head depressed by Yu's words. Lena closes the book she was reading.

"... Colette, did it make sense to be here?

Everyone laughed bitterly, starting Colette at Lena's words.
