Chapter 91: 91 CHAPTER IX -- FIRST WORK

It's been about a week since the study group began.

We don't know what Hermann has done yet, but Frank's magic power has grown rapidly.

Lately, Frank has been circulating his body's magic in his spare time.

I was surprised when he was doing it in class.

"I see, so this is how I should pass the time.

He was so happy to see his magic power increasing that he couldn't help but get lost in it.

Yes, I know that feeling.

The first day off for the third year was here.

We're taking a day off from study hall today.

Of course I'm taking a break from study today because I'm going on an adventure!

I told them both that it was important to take a break once in a while, or something appropriate.

Well, they both said they could do well on their own.

So now I'm looking at the guild's message board with Belle.

''Yeah ...... I guess the bottom D class is only an easy request after all.

You can't help it. You get stronger by starting with the easy stuff and working your way up to the easy stuff.

'That's true too ...... So which one do you want to try today? ......

I'll check the "D" class sign.

"Search warrant!　The Kimberley Family's Cat, Reward: Two Silver Coins

"A silver coin for cleaning the house.

"A call for medicinal herbs!　Reward: one silver coin for every ten pieces

"Dog Walk: 50 Copper Coins

"Weeding, Reward: A Silver Coin.

A silver coin is worth about 2,000 yen.

It's all very inexpensive.

Personally, I think the herb commission is better.

Yes, I don't have any problems with that either.

All right, let's get this to the receptionist.

I peeled off the herb request and got in line for the receptionist.

''Yes, the herb request. Bring me ten herbs to the guild and you've done it. They grow in the woods west of the Imperial City. Also, if you don't know what kind of herbs they are, I suggest you check with the apothecary before you leave the Imperial City.

I understand.

I bowed to the receptionist and left the guild.

"Has Belle ever seen a herb?

I know, because I studied at school.

Yeah. There wasn't enough money for potions at the orphanage.

Yeah. Well, let's get on with it.

I understand.

Then I left the west gate of the Imperial City and searched the woods.

Hmm?　I don't see anything all around.

I don't see a forest. .......

'What's that?　That's quite a long way off: ......

There was definitely a forest to the west, but it was far enough away that we could just barely see it.

"There's no way around it. Let's just be patient and walk.

Yes, that's why ...... pays more than other requests.

It'll take half a day just to get there and back.

All right, let's head for the woods.

You know, it's faster to run with Bell in your arms than to walk with her, right?

Yeah, I will.

Hang on tight.

'What?　Oh, my God!　What are you doing?!

I was lifted up so unexpectedly that the bell let out a lovely scream, a rare occurrence.

'It won't take much longer if I run like this, will it?

If we walk this far, we won't have time to pick up the herbs.

''Yes, but ......

Belle looked like she wanted to say something, but I didn't care.

It was about twenty minutes before he reached the woods.

If I walked slowly with Belle, we wouldn't be in the woods for another few hours.

Okay, we're here. Now let's go find some herbs.

Let's not waste this shortened time.

Yes, I hope you find a lot of them.

'Don't worry about it!　We've got some good friends on our side, we'll be fine.

Ally?　Do you have any items in mind?

Good instincts.

Yeah, if Anna's here, you'll find plenty more.

Whenever you're looking for something, it's Anna.

I showed Belle my partner's goggles.

I see ...... that those goggles had a name.

'Yeah, it talks to me when I put it on.

'What?　Those goggles, do they talk?

You know, I never told you.

Yeah. Oh, wait. Belle should try it on.

Oh, you're sure?

If Belle is wearing it, she'll be able to point you in the right direction.

Yes, and when you have it on, ask Anna to show you where the herbs are.

He handed Belle Anna.

'Okay. ...... Ugh!　He really spoke to me.

I put my goggles on and he was scurrying around, probably because he was talking to me right away.

So, did you see where it grows?

Yes, there's a lot of growth in this direction.

Belle pointed to the far side of the forest and told me.

Oh, you're the one, Anna!　I can count on you.

So, my first job as an adventurer is easily accomplished.

Then, about 30 minutes later.

Hey, are we there yet?

It's a long walk, okay?

I think we're close.

How much further?　I heard that earlier: .......

But is it still safe to go in here?　Won't there be any demons or anything?

There must be some kind of monster in here, right?

Well, I heard there's a guy at ...... who's there, but he's okay with Leo-sama.

'Really?　Okay.

Well, if there was a demon here that I had a problem with, the imperial capital wouldn't exist now.

''Oh, it's around here . Wow, it really is a lot of growth.

The bell stopped and I looked around.

I saw that the roots of the trees around me were covered with medicinal plants.

Wow! There were so many of them!

That's great, Anna! Come on, let's get some!

Then the picking began.

Carefully picking the herbs so as not to damage the leaves.

After about an hour or so, they finally got all the herbs within sight.

There, that's it. Well then, it's too much trouble to walk back, so let's transfer to the area near the imperial capital.

I can't walk or run anymore.

Yes, please. You took a lot of them, though.

Then Belle looked at the bag I was carrying.

It's a big bag, filled with herbs.

Yeah, it'll be fun to see how many of them there are. Okay, let's move on.

I shook Bell's hand and moved to the vicinity of the Imperial City.

Let's head to the guild then.

After making sure that we had transitioned near the Imperial City, we headed to the guild .

Then when we arrived at the guild, unlike the morning, the guild was deserted.

Well, it would have taken us longer to get back if we hadn't used the transference, and it would have been much later in the day when it would have been more crowded, so I wondered if it was empty at this time of day.

Thinking about that, I reported to the receptionist.

"Excuse me. Can you confirm that we accomplished the task?

Yes, so you'll just have to take out your card. Let's see... ...... You're asking me to go collect some medicinal plants, right?

The lady at the reception desk looked twice at the bag I held out to her as she explained.

Is there something wrong with my bag?

'Yes, I've got a lot in this bag, can you check it out for me?'

'What?　Ah, yes ......, wait a minute. ......

Okay. Well, good luck with that.

The lady at the reception desk went into the back, holding the bag I was carrying.

Maybe there are some magic tools in the back that count the number of pieces.

'Huh!　What is this number?　You brought this to me alone?　Who the hell are you?!

Hmm?　I thought I heard some loud shouting ...... Yeah, it must have been my imagination .

While I was thinking about this, an old man with graying hair came out from the back.

You guys got the herbs from ...... oh, I see. I'm sorry. Hey, go ahead and count the number of pieces and hand in your reward!

I thought he came out, but he said it when he saw me, and then he walked back in.

"Isn't that Master Leons? That's the grandson of the famous hero. Yeah, you're a burglar!

I know you think you're sneaking around because your voice is lower than it was earlier, but ...... I can hear everything you're saying, right?

I mean, how do you know my face!

''And let's raise the ranks of those two. What, we have more than 200 herbs, so we can't complain if we think we've accomplished the default of 20 requests, right?　Yeah, not really, but as long as they don't know, we'll be fine. Come on, get the hell out of here.

So they can hear you.

They know you're cheating: .......

Sorry for the wait. Here's your reward, the thirty-one pieces of silver. Please take a look.

Whoa! That's a lot of silver!

And thirty-one pieces of silver, for a profit of about 62,000 yen.

I wonder what I'll use it for~.

Thinking about this, I checked the number of silver coins.

"Yes, I'm fine.

I understand. Oh, and since you have achieved more than 20 requests this time, your rank will increase. Congratulations!

Yeah, I just heard.

So, starting tomorrow, you'll have to take a C-grade request.

Yes, I understand.

I didn't think it would be so easy to rise through the ranks: ......
