Chapter 22: The Forbidden Hand

Chapter 22: The Forbidden Hand

A few days later, Tauro’s big party and the full donation to the orphanage were well received by all concerned parties.

However, the fact that it was the act of a 10-year-old adventurer caused a lot of concern in the city, and Tauro quickly became a household name.

However, not many people knew Tauro himself, except for those involved with him.

This was because when he walked around the city, he used his presence blocker, so people rarely noticed him.

Therefore, Tauro’s name spread throughout the city and his image was tangled up in the imaginations of the few people who didn’t know him personally. 

“Satou, they say you spend your nights punishing the bad guys.”

“I heard you brought an old man back from the dead.”

The adult adventurers were amused by the rumors in the city and teased Tauro.

“Of course not!”

Tauro was troubled.

The adventurers laughed and said, “That’s what I thought, so I dismissed it.”

As guildmates, it seems they were correcting the rumors about him.

“Thank you, everyone.”

Tauro thanked them.

“I owe you a drink and of course we’d stick up for you. You’re a member of the guild after all.”

A voice came from among the other adventurers.

It was Mauve, a veteran adventurer, who spoke up.

“You’ve done a fine thing, so you should be proud of yourself. The rumors will die down in a little while.”

“Yes!”

The reason why Tauro donated to the orphanage was partly because of his original situation, but also because of Mauve, who had been of great help to him in many ways.

According to Nei, the receptionist, he heard that Mauve was an orphan when he first came to the guild and that he often donates a portion of his earnings as an adventurer to the orphanage.

This is probably the reason why he has not left the city, even though his rank is now C+ and he is close to being ranked B, the standard for a top-notch adventurer.

Mauve-san, you’re still so cool!

Tauro thanked Mauve once again.

A few days after this incident, Tauro was walking around town for shopping, using his presence blocker as usual when he saw a couple of puppet shows on the street.

There seemed to be a lot more of them than before.

The fact that there were more puppet shows didn’t matter to him, but he noticed that he was the main character in the puppet show.

In this city, there is usually not much to talk about.

For a puppeteer, a story with Tauro as the main character was the most popular and lucrative topic in town right now.

It didn’t matter if the rumor was true or not, as long as it was interesting, the puppeteer exaggerated the story in a funny, yet heroic way.

“This … Before the rumors fade away, the puppet shows could make them spread even more”

Puppetry is one of the tools used to pass on local lore and stories to future generations.

If you go back in time, it may have had a magical meaning, but now it’s more like entertainment.

Tauro’s gossip was becoming a part of the local entertainment.

In his previous life, there was a saying that you can’t put a door in a person’s mouth, and that’s exactly the case.

“It can’t be helped. It’s a risky gamble and I know it’s forbidden, but I’ll have to play my cards right.”

Tauro seemed to have a trump card.

“Sorry puppeteers, but an eye for an eye. I’ll create a new form of entertainment that will be more fun and irresistible!”

With the odds stacked against him, Tauro hurried back to the guild knowing he had a chance at victory.
