Welcome to the Monsters’ Guild ~ The Strongest Group Who Did Everything, for a Price ~

"Rise! It's time for you to come home with me today!

"Hey, Merck to Letty."

The day after the Shadow Demons captured the Special Forces of their neighbor, Letty again came to persuade Rise with Merck.

"Welcome, Letty, Merck."

Lamia graciously welcomed them.

"Good morning, Lamia."

Merck greets Lamia.

"Rise! If you are a former soldier, you know the importance of deterrence to keep your enemies from attacking you!? You need people to keep this country out of the war again!

He was quietly listening to Letty's words, but the truth is he knew what this persuasion was about.

That's because he had Ketsey keep an eye on the two inns.

And based on their persuasion, they had prepared in advance how to hope that they would not return with the army.

"Sorry, but I have work to do this morning. I don't mind persuading you, but first, would you look at how well we work?

"So if you go back to the army, there's no small job in a town like this......!

"Letty, you shouldn't get in the way of your work. Work means that other human beings are also part of that circle. Interrupting it will annoy other people."

Merck praises Letty for coming.

"Yes, because if my job fails, I will pay a lot of money as a penalty. If the military pays you all the damages free of charge, you can continue the negotiations, but you'll be charging a few more times as much as you want to make up for your damaged trust.

"A few times!?"

I don't know how much, but Letty hardens herself to the point that it will never be a cheap amount.

"I'm going to the ranch, so if you want to follow me, you should follow me."

That's all I'm saying, Rise leaves the digging shed without waiting for a reply from the two of them.

"Ah, here! The story..."

"Letty, let's see how Rise works first. He won't come back, but he deserves it."

"……… OK."

Letty managed to follow Merck's words.

◆

Rise and the others arrived in the nest of the bird demon Cocatrice.

"Co, Cocatrice!?"

Cocatrice is a terrible demon who stones what he sees with his gaze.

It is not enough to fear those who are highly resistant by magic, but it is a terrible monster to those who are not.

In a hurry, Letty and the others hide themselves from Cocatrice.

"It's okay, see, you're getting thin eyed, right?

"" What?

Without knowing what Rise is talking about, Letty and the others raise a loose voice between them.

"Cocatrice can also weaken the evil eye by doing it and making it thin. Letty and the others won't be petrified unless they're weak."

I've never even heard of it. I heard of the petrification measures, and Letty and the others are decapitating.

If you do take a good look, Cocatrice is narrowing her eyes. It's like watching a person with low eyesight narrow his eyes and stare at him.

"I can't believe this weakened the evil eye of petrification."

"What a surprise."

"Well, usually, Cocatrice doesn't deliberately weaken the evil eye."

Rise dives beneath the stomach of the sitting Cocatrice, leaving Letty and the others surprised by the discovery.

"Eh? What!?"

Letty surprised by Rise's sudden oddity.

"That sounds nice, right?"

"In fact, it's very warm when you're wrapped in cocatrice feathers on a cold day."

Ramia responds to Merck's jokes in a magical way.

"Oh, that sounds like a good idea to wash and futon Cocatrice's hair loss beautifully."

Lamia laughs joyfully when she comes up with a new idea for business.

"Wouldn't that be a futon for giants?

Letty, hearing Ramia whine, tends to shudder when she sees the giant wings of Cocatrice that were falling to the ground.

"So, why did Rise dive inside Cocatrice?

When Merck asked Lamia, Lamia slowly pointed to Cocatrice.

"That's obvious if you look at me."

If the two of them looked back, a rise with a large egg had just emerged from under the cocatrice.

"Eggs are what you wanted to be."

"Yeah, and this is the real deal."

"Production?"

When Letty and the others shook their heads, a loud odd noise suddenly broke out.

"Eh? Hey, what!?"

Rise rushes to the side of the panicking Letties.

"You two will both run away! Cocatrice, deprived of her eggs, is furious!

Lamia, who warns me, has also begun to flee with all her might and has already fled far away.

"" Eh...... eh!

"Kokeye!!!"

A roar burned with anger.

I don't have to turn around, it's the roar of Cocatrice.

"" Ugh, wow!!! "

Letty and Merck escaped at full speed.

Then he chases them both as Cocatrice spreads his wings.

"And it's flying! They're flying after us!

"No, that's not flying, it's gliding. Cocatrice is a chicken-shaped demon. Not until you fly."

"It doesn't matter either way. Yikes!

Cocatrice wings with Bassa Bassa from behind, jumps up and skies over and over again and comes after him.

That was a case of carving a little trauma into both of us.

◆

"By the way, Cocatrice is an idiot, so if you move around for a while, forget they took your eggs and come back to the nest."

Letty and the others, who had finally returned to the digging shed, encountered the sight of Rise washing large quantities of eggs.

"No, I was able to retrieve the eggs easily today thanks to the two of you. Thanks."

"... oto... li?

"I need help from the fast-paced demons. You two can work out in the military."

Ramia praises the two for their good legs.

"………!

Letty wanted to punch Rise with the anger she used, but she was no longer angry because she kept walking with all her strength.

"Well, we're going to sell eggs to town, but are you two resting?

Put the eggs in the luggage car. When Rise asks, Letty gets up.

"Of course I'm going!

"I'll take a break and catch up."

Merck falls asleep with a big letter on the limit and on the ground already.

"Let's go to the delivery."
