To Deprive a Deprived Person

Episode 139: Are you interested in investing?

"Colette, can't we do something about this?

"What can I do for you, Mr. Rebecca?

Rebecca, the receptionist on the ground floor of the City Cummer Adventurer Guild, was fed up with the sight in front of her.

"Hey, Rebecca. Buy materials and tablets (...) please."

"Because I get it. Don't come any closer with that face."

The face of the male adventurer who asked Rebecca to buy it was badly swollen. No, it's not just this guy. The majority of adventurers in front of them had swollen faces.

"Don't be harsh. This face was hit by Joseph's husband. They said they wouldn't forgive me if I recovered them with potion or magic. Don't you think Colette's terrible, too?

"What, uh... how did Mr. Joseph do that?

"That's it. It's a complete one, right? Look, that yu-"

"Hey, stay away from Colette, too, right? Look, the purchase of materials is two gold coins and three silver coins. Six tablets, one silver coin, eight half silver coins."

tablet, is a stone slab found in the labyrinth. What it says is absurd, and man set the beast man in a trap. Peripheral states are being manipulated by the five powers. The three great demon kings are actually the four great demon kings to protect the Lame continent. Don't forget the nightmare of the Goat Kingdom. Other races were embedded in the human brave, etc. Who, for what reason, carves letters on stone slabs and installs them in labyrinths throughout the Lame continent? will it be automatically generated in the labyrinth again? Even now, the mystery had not been solved. However, this tablet can be bought in the Adventurer's Guild, so if there was room in the item pouch or bag when they came out of the crate or something, the adventurers were bringing it back to the Adventurer's Guild if it was to feed their lives at all.

"Whoa, come on, give me some more color. One and a half tablets, three silver coins. Look at the hairy hair on your tail, Heikovolt."

"Ahhh, annoying! You're telling me you're not convinced by my assessment? You've got a lot of nerve when you're fucking busy."

When Rebecca glanced half-eyed, the male adventurer rushed to collect the money and left to flee.

"Colette, you don't have to take him seriously."

"Mr. Rebecca, you can't say that. Ladies and gentlemen, you're doing your best to take on a dangerous job."

"Ugh! You worry more about yourself than about people. Didn't you lose a little weight?

"Oh, that's not true! I'm always the same."

Since the discovery of the labyrinth of demonic tree gardens, the Adventurers Guild of the City Cummer had gathered not only neighboring cities and villages, but also large numbers of adventurers from other countries in search of valuable materials and herbs. As a result, the receptionists were very busy day after day. Even though, during the period Yu was gone, the receptionists were less willing to work, and Colette, who was filling holes when she was tending to rest, was just as fatigued on her face.

"Did you hear the disturbance yesterday?

"There's no such thing as an adventurer to whom Cummer belongs who doesn't know. It's the people from elsewhere you don't know. Look, they don't know what's going on. They look at people with swollen faces."

"Heh, that's not all. There's always these big, red meteors out there."

"You're right. I'm so ashamed of what face you can come to."

The adventurers, who had accumulated frustration with Clan Red Meteor's attitude from day to day, were thriving on the subject of Red Meteor, not to mention saying it was a good mood.

"But have you ever heard of a clan with a hundred and fifty men losing to only four?

"Buha, there's no way there is. Oh, come on, look at that! Nameless."

The man's words contagious as the watermark that happened on the surface spread, and the lobby he was bothering to calm down. Meanwhile, the expressions of some female adventurers and receptionists were joyful.

Before the crowded counter as Yu headed to the reception, he can make his way as if he had broken the ocean. Marifa proudly intimidated her surroundings to protect Yu.

It was Yu who tried to line up, but he heard the noise, which popped up despite the fact that Feefi, the receptionist, was taking a break.

"Yu! Well, when did you get back?

"Mr. Feefi, it's been a while. Looks like you've been causing trouble while I was gone."

Feefi takes him to the receptionists' lounge with a subtle body touch to Yu. Colette panics watching it.

"Re, Mr. Rebecca! Me, I hadn't taken a break yet, so I'll take it!

"What!? Hey, I'm super busy right now."

Colette went after Yu without waiting for Rebecca's reply either. Before Rebecca was left, it was a bunch of wimpy men with swollen faces waiting to buy.

"Worst......"

"I'm Namali! You're strong!

In the break room Namari introduced herself with her chest stretched toward the receptionists. Demons are a feared species from humans, but it was the subject of adults. A nostalgic smile had little bat feathers on his back, and the curly horns growing from his head only made a cute impression on the receptionists.

"Oh, my goodness!"

"No, what is this kid? Yu, can I hold this girl?

"Let go! I'm strong!

It was Namali who was toyed by the receptionists, headed by Fifi. Did Momo expect this to happen, he was just evacuating into Yu's hat?

"Ha ha, Mr. Yu, long time no see!

"Mr. Colette, it's been a while. If you like, you can all eat."

Before Colette, who let him out of breath, Yu removed the cage from the item pouch.

Tension runs between the receptionists as well as Colette, gazing at the cage.

"Ko, what's this?

"The contents are cookies and donuts. Cookies are ok for a week or so, but please eat the doughnuts by the end of the day because they are made from raw cream or something."

Cookies and donuts were tightly packed when Yu opened the cage. There was plenty of cream in the doughnuts, and all the high calorie essential foods were creams mixed with ruby strawberries to flavor, and honey sprinkled items that could be picked from ant honey and Giant Bee's nest.

Come on, someone, no, it must not have been Yu's mistake to hear the sound of spitting from the women who are here. Everyone could not distract themselves from the contents of the cage.

"Master Odono's treats are good! Good for you, Sister Colette."

"What, Namari, do you know me?

"Yeah! I know. This is Sister Fifi and that's Sister Adele."

Those who were called names by Namari stroked their heads as they reached Namari with yellow voices raised.

"Mr. Colette, I'm sorry to interrupt, but have you heard about my promotion to B-rank over the guild leader?

"Yes! I have heard about the promotion. But I haven't been able to create my guild card yet, so I was wondering if you could give me a little more time."

"You can always have your guild card. I hear that one of the B-rank privileges is to be able to use the transfer room personally. Quickly, may I use your room?"

"Nobody's using the transfer room now, so it's okay, but you don't have to accompany them?

"You can't let Mr. Colette work during a break. I know where the room is, so please have a treat with all of you."

Colette alternates between Yu and Confectionery. It was Colette who wanted to go with Yu, but the treat in front of her was so charming that she couldn't replace anything. Besides, in front of him, he was aiming for prey to see if the salivated carnivores were ready now.

Marifa, take care of Namali.

"Uh, I want to go with Master Odono, too."

It was a wasting Namari, but he cheeked happily when Fifi held him on his lap and offered him a cookie. Marifa can't possibly disagree with Yu's words. He stood in the corner of the room and waited.

When he entered the transfer room, Yu looked up every corner with Skynet restoration and covered the room with a junction. When I make sure there is no trick, I put my hands on the crystal.

As soon as possible, the crystal displays a job that Yu can get into.

"Guardian Knight," "Dark Knight," "Sacred Knight," "Spirit Knight," "Swordsman," "Sage," "Hammer," "Great Summoner," "Cardinal," "High Grantor," "Heavy Fist," "Bomber," "Shielder," "Devil's Eye Users," "Dollmaster," "Dollmaster," "Bomber," "Hidden," "Ninja," "Devil Fighter," "Archsummoner," "Murderer's Heavy," "Magic Instructor," "Crusader," "Temple Night," "Element Master," "Sword Sage," "Hidden," "Double Swordsman," "Archwizard" - more than a hundred positions are displayed, from combat positions to general positions.

"Shit."

You didn't have the job you were looking for, Yu squeaks his tongue. As soon as Yu switches his head, space-time magic connects the Mansion to the Transfer Room.

As the crack broke into the space, on the other side I saw Nina and Russ sitting around with a blue face.

"Yu...... yu? Yu ~!"

Nina tries to jump, but the size of the space Yu connected is about thirty centimeters across, pushing Nina back to force her to come to this side.

"Master, is that the crystal of the example? Looks like you didn't see the Heroes, Braves, and Heaven and Earth Creation jobs."

"Oh, in a way, as expected. Russ, can you create the same thing as this crystal in your Truth Pursuit?

Russ will look up the materials, techniques used, performance, etc. of the crystal with his unique skill "Truth Pursuit".

"Master, you can create the same thing, but as it is, the information will be sent to the Great Sage."

"I knew (...) information was being sent"

Strong cover-up magic was used in crystals that could not be broken even with Yu's exotic eyes.

"Yeah, because it was the Great Sage who created the Adventurer Alliance somehow. Please take a moment to create a crystal."

Yu and Russ closed the space when they spoke for a few minutes afterwards, waiting for Yu to come out of the transfer room.

"Dear Odono, are you done?

It was Namari, who stuffed her cheeks with cookies and had doughnuts in her hands, and Marifa, who stood in an undisturbed position.

"I told you to wait, didn't I?

"Yeah! That's why I've been waiting here!

"Yes, I was taking care of Namari"

It was Marifa who seemed sorry for the smiling Namari and somewhere, but I just understand that I was thinking of Yu, Yu who couldn't be scolded strongly.

And what Yu and the others saw back in the break room was a feud between the women who could not show the men much.

"Mr. Feefi, sloppy! That's the third one!!

"Shut up! Don't you feel like giving up to the elderly?"

"I didn't mean to take my doughnuts at the reception on the ground floor!

"I'm busy with you, Mofko!

"Colette, I'll be your shield, so make sure in the meantime!

"So, but that's Mr. Adele!?

"I don't mind... if that bitch makes me blow a bubble"

"So, who's the bitch! When did Yu come back? Oh ho."

Namari accidentally hid behind Yu in an ugly feud between the receptionists on the ground and second floors, and Momo let him peek only at his face from Yu's hat for seeing something scary.

"I'm sorry. I showed you the mess."

Colette with shards of doughnuts on the edge of her mouth leans shyly. Was the look ridiculous, Colette dyed her face even brighter red as Namari jumped out from behind Yu to tease her.

"That's it. Sister Colette, I'll see you tomorrow. We're going to a picnic with Master O'Donough. Let's all go, if that's all right. Dear O'Donough, isn't that good?

All the receptionists nod at Namari's favor, but the Adventurer Guild was currently very busy day after day, and no one was able to satisfy the holidays, etc.

"Fine, but it will also be convenient for Mr. Colette and the others. I have a job to do even when suddenly you say," I'm going! ♪ And it will be ♪

It was Colette who broke into Yu's words. Feefi and the others are also surprised by strong expressions of intent than you can imagine from a regular collet.

"Co, Colette? Not now, huh? Look, the guild's busy too, right? You know that, right?"

Though Feefi utters words to junior Colette in horror.

"Me...... I worked all the time while you guys were off! I will use the amount of vacation I have accumulated so far."

Colette's words clogged with Fifi and the others. Surely Colette was right that while Yu was gone from the city Cummer, Feefi and the others, who were less willing to work, tended to rest. In the meantime, it was undisputed thanks to Colette's hard work that the Adventurer Alliance was able to operate without problems.

"Then I'll pick you up tomorrow. Do you want to meet me at the West Gate tomorrow morning?

"Ma, meet me. Yes, I'll wait. I'm waiting for Mr. Yu!

Dye her cheeks red, meet up with Mr. Yu and Colette walks flutteringly indoors whining. It wasn't exactly here. Behind Colette, Fifi chewed up the handkerchief, screaming envy.

At the end of his work at the Adventurer Guild, Colette receives a call from Morpheus.

Though he didn't think he'd failed to be scolded lately, Colette knocked on the door to the dreaded guild chief's office.

"Come in."

"And excuse me."

Morphys sat with a creepy grin as he entered the room.

"Colette, do you know that when an adventurer deposits money in the guild, a percent of the deposit is paid as a reward to the receptionist in charge?

"Yes, I know"

Colette pins at Morpheus' words. When Yu arrived today, he said he probably deposited some money into the guild. If Yu, promoted to B rank, had deposited it, the amount due to Colette would also amount to a considerable amount. The reward paid by Colette a few months ago by the Alliance when Yu deposited it was 300,000 Madokas.

How much will it be this time, staring at Morphis with a nervous face?

"Um, I think I have a big anticipation, but when Yu arrives today, I'm giving him the purchase money the Alliance has been keeping. Because Yu deposited part of it with the Alliance. See, this is what Colette gets paid for."

The cloth bag given to me by Morpheus was unusually heavy. By too much weight Colette was about to lose her balance, but rushed back into position.

"Look, what's going on? You don't want me to check the reward?

"Here? Isn't that rude?

Morphis smiles and shakes his face to the side. It has been at this rate ever since Colette entered the room. With suspicion, Colette peeks into the cloth bag, Yikes! screaming and dropping cloth bags. Large quantities of white gold coins (...) are scattered from the cloth bags that fell on the floor.

"Hey, hey, what is this? Ha!?

"What is it, Colette's reward?"

I didn't count the exact number of pieces, so Colette didn't know, but I roughly expected more than a hundred pieces of white gold coins. They gave me so much money that I couldn't get in my life. It wasn't impossible for Colette to be suspicious of behavior either.

"It's Colette, by the way. Are you interested in investing?

"Huh? And is that an investment?

"Yes, an investment."

Just waiting for his turn, Edda jumped out of the hypnotic room next to the guild chief's office. I even had tons of materials and contracts in my hands.

"You'd be anxious to keep all this money at home, wouldn't you? If you're an Alliance in that respect, you can be assured of safe iron wall defense! Plus you get interest while you're keeping it!

"Ki, suddenly you have to talk to me, me and your mother about that, yes, even if they say so. And talk to your father... Huh."

Morpheus and Edda, with a disgusting grin, just had to miss Colette, who was about to cry, stiffened both sides of Colette disappointingly.
