Chapter 85: Good Job!

Chapter 85 Good Job!

I told the servant that we will participate in the subjugation. Then, we waited for Therese in the guest room, and soon after, with footsteps that were far from graceful, she entered the room with the force of breaking the door again.

「I’m sorry to keep you waiting desuwa!」

「No, we haven’t waited that long.」

Perhaps she was drinking tea just a while ago, Therese appeared with a cup in her hand. Then, she gracefully sips the tea now. She’s even enjoying the aroma.

「This swift decision to my sudden proposal, I was so impressed that I was moving my legs unconsciously! Then I must be even quicker to welcome you! Perhaps it was my self-confidence that decided so! Ohohoho!」

Therese’s loud laughter echoed through the room.

「Goshujin-sama, Lily might be a bit uncomfortable with this person.」

「A capable maid doesn’t chatter pointlessly.」

「Zip….」

Let’s set aside Lily, who makes a zipping mouth gesture behind me. It is important to understand the situation first.

「So, Therese-ojousama, How are you going to subjugate the golem? This is the first time we are hearing this, so we can’t really grasp the situation.」

On the surface, we are adventurers who just came here without knowing anything. We didn’t know that there was a vicious in the ruins, and if we happened to find it, we’d just accidentally defeat it. Now we’ve come this far, let’s get the information thoroughly.

「Of course desuwa. This information is something even the Adventurer Guild doesn’t know after all. It all started when an adventurer party, which was mainly exploring the Gibeon ruins, found an unfamiliar path. This place consisted of three floors, and the lower you go, the stronger the monsters will be. That said, the difference is only that a goblin becomes a goblin leader.」

「We are aware of that as well. It’s a dungeon for rookies with a bottom layer of up to 3 layers. It’s also often used by students of the academy.」

「That’s right. Oh, by the way, I haven’t asked your name, have I?」

「I’m Deris. I’m sorry, but there are others who want to hide their identities… So, I’ll speak on behalf of the party.」

「… I’m sure you adventurers have a lot going on. Prying into their past is taboo! Very well! Deris-san, I’m looking forward to working with you!」

「Ah, yes. We are looking forward to working with you. Then, let’s continue the talk…」

To summarize her story, it seems that the mentioned adventurers discovered an unfamiliar path and started to explore it with suspicions in their minds. Their curiosity that the path might be an illusion and their adventurous spirit that there might be unknown treasures made them do so. Strangely enough, the monsters that often appear in dungeons, such as the big bat and the ruins rat, did not appear at all on that path.

Being able to proceed safely is good, but on the contrary, it’s dangerous if there’s nothing at all. Because they were rookies, they attached great importance to the unspoken rule of adventurers. With each step they took, they were more vigilant and careful. And then, their cautiousness was paid off.

『Grrrr….』

After walking for a while, they came to open space. The walls prevented them from seeing the figure, but there was a shadow shimmering under the light of the fire that was probably lit in the large room. At the same time, they heard a growl that sounded like a ferocious lion growling from the depths of its throat. It was a strange voice that sounded like a living thing, but somehow inorganic. At this point, one of them suggested going back. Just as the majority of the party agreed, they felt a gaze from the room.

The adventurers held their breaths. As they had guessed from the growl, the monster was a lion. However, it was a golem that imitated that figure. At the mere sight of its vicious appearance, the adventurers ran away at once. Fortunately, the size of the golem was larger than the width of the passage, so it didn’t pursue them from there. Since then, the passage, as well as the Gibeon ruins, have been restricted.

「I don’t think there’s any need to worry about the golem coming out of that passage. But, golems aren’t always lion-shaped. There may be humanoid golems as well, so there’s no guarantee that all golems won’t be able to pass through that passage. Also, the adventurers in this town are mainly young people. Their levels are also unsuitable for this, so I talked about this with my father. Do you understand?」

「Yes, I understand. In other words, it’s not just a matter of defeating one lion-shaped golem to solve the problem, but also to check the unexplored area and eliminate any uncertainties, right?」

「I’m glad that you are very perceptive desuwa. Of course, the reward will be increased according to the number and quality of the monsters desuwa. Specifically, I’m assuming about this much――」

I went to the shadow with Therese and began to negotiate stealthily. For each lion-shaped golem, the reward amount is about the same amount as defeating an Ash Kobold Boss. In addition to that, she added an extraordinary reward for the urgent request, the investigation of the unexplored dungeon. She was even thoroughly taken into account the distribution of the reward to the number of people in the party. It’s a much better deal than the one I made with the guild.

「We have no objection!」

「It’s a deal, desuwa!」

I shook her hand and returned to the others. The rich young lady is generous and this old man is happy.

「By the way, where is Duke Ortho now?」

「My father is personally leading his private army to guard the ruins desuwa.」

What, he was also heading to the Gibeon Ruins, huh? So it was difficult to enter the dungeon.

「I’ll tell my father about it, so you don’t have to worry about the details. So, as for the date and time for the subjugation, I would prefer if we could go as soon as possible….」

「Surely, we can go today. We were planning to make some money in a dungeon somewhere after all.」

「Oh my, that’s wonderful desuwa! Strike while the iron is hot! The adventurer’s ability to act quickly is real! If this was at the academy, we would have had to go through the tedious process of budgeting, dividing up the team, prepping―― Deris-san, good job!」

She put her clenched fist out in front of her and praised me for some reason. It seems that the student council president is having a hard time.

「Ah, right. Just to confirm, can you leave how we will fight the golems to us?」

「I’m not going to tell you how to fight the golem, so you are free to do as you please desuwa. However, I will use my own fighting style. On the honor of the Batten family!」

Uh, that last sentence is very disturbing. Since she’s a student in the academy, her job is a magician. If I think about it normally, her main role is support from behind. If nothing serious happens, we can manage somehow… For the time being, I send an eye signal to Nell, the only one here who knows about Therese, and ask if it’s okay. Big Sis Nell, will she be okay?

「She won’t get in the way.」

She won’t get in the way, huh… It will be okay! If Big Sis says so then it must be true!
