Chapter 48


The Adventurer’s Guild was packed when I walked in .

I had everyone wait at the entrance, and aimed for reception by myself .

I put some spirit into it and one way or another I advanced and pushed through the crowd of people . At last, I finally reached the reception desk .

“It’s really packed today . Did something happen?”

“Welcome . A strong monster seems to have appeared near the town . ”

“Strong monster?” (TL: normal tone, people . )

“This is it . ”

The receptionist onee-san displayed a document, the contents which said that a Silver Grizzly had appeared near town .

Silver? It’s not clear, maybe the monster is gray .

Apparently the monster boasts of fur that has the strength of metal .

It cannot be harmed by ordinary weapons .

“I’ll be careful while going out of town . Besides, today I have come here to receive the prize from the competition . ”

“Ah, I heard about that . Please come to the back room . ”

“Please wait a moment, my companions are waiting outside . ”

After calling to Ayla and everyone, I returned again to the receptionist onee-san .

We were guided to a room where you could see things such as robes and books, something like bones and dubious liquid, and on top of that there were things that I don’t even know what to call .

“Zir, choose what you might need . If you do not need it, let’s hand over the remaining items to the guild . ”

“Kufufu, to has’t this many things to chooseth from is quite sore . Oh my, oh my . I am so joyous yond I couldst scream . ”

When Zir finished inspecting the items that had already been laid out, she arbitrarily aimed for the big box at the back of the room .

“What is this?”

I tried to open it by putting all of my strength into it, but it wouldn’t open . When I tried to send for a little bit of help, a voice called out from behind me .

“Umm, Hibiki-san…”

The receptionist onee-san spoke up .

Apparently, it seems she wants to tell me something . It won’t be a problem because Ayla and Amy have headed towards the box .

“Is something wrong?”

“Yes, please confirm the goods that have been previously disposed . ”

People’s names were lined up in a row in the proffered inventory .

“Umm, is this a list of names?”

“Yes, so what about the [Disposed Goods]?”

At last, I realized what was being said here . In other words, this is an inventory of zombies which were [employed] by the necromancer .

“There was also a corpse that could not be identified, I was going to dispose of it because as one would expect a [Human Corpse] can not be handed over . ”

“Oh, thank you very much . ”

I probably felt uneasy during the talk because a [Human Corpse] was completely being treated as merchandise .

Well, it is a tool of trade for a necromancer, so I guess how corpses are handled in this world that has necromancers established as occupations will differ from my former world .

It seems it’s not particularly a crime to possess a human corpse .

If you obtain the approval of the bereaved family that lives in the city, a [Fresh Corpse] can be transferred over with money, likely you do not even need such procedures as long as they died outside of the town .

The receptionist onee-san heard and did not dismiss it .

“When a necromancer is in a party, [Monster Zombies] are put in a box without disposing of them . ”

The onee-san pointed at the box which Zir was about to open .

“Zi-Zir! Wait!!”

“Master? Anon, wherefore didst thee taketh mine han————d!”

It seems I was too late . Zir confirmed the contents of the box, screamed and fainted on the spot .

Fortunately, Ayla and Amy were safe because they were in a position where they could not see the contents, I quickly support the fainted Zir and it seems that she was uninjured .

“Umm~, is something wrong?” (TL: many things is wrong nee-san)

“No, it seems that I got excited too much . Also, excuse me, but I want to dispose of this [Monster Zombie] . ”

“Are you sure about that? I heard that monsters that have been [Zombified] are difficult to acquire though?”

When a monster is killed, it leaves materials and then disappears .

To make a monster into a zombie…

First, the monster is driven to the limit without killing it . Moreover, for it to become a zombie, minimize as much damage to it as possible .

Next, an abnormal status causes the monster to zombify . I think there are items or magic and such for this . However, 【Ghost magic】 seems to be useful .

At the end, after the monster receives the finishing blow it revives as a zombie dozens of seconds later .

When it’s made it becomes a [Stray Zombie] and necromancers control zombies . Is this similar to a monster tamer?

This concludes my report . At last, he was able to reach the point where he could employ the zombies from a distance .

By the way, skeletons and so forth existed in a bone-like state from the beginning .

As for this, there is a theory that skeletal corpses that were abandoned were converted to skeletons, apparently the theory states that this is the only way that a monster of this form is birthed .

Well, whatever . Therefore a [Monster Zombie] is likely to sell at quite a high price .

If you have a connection with a necromancer buyer of course .

I had to ask because apparently it is possible to sell by using the network of the Adventurer’s Guild .

That’s really good to hear, because at the present time we can not afford to keep the zombie, so we declined it .

Because Zir fainted, I looked after her by giving her my lap as a pillow and resting on the bench within the lobby .

Then, someone approached us . There were other benches available, but they kept coming straight at me .

“Yo, [Annihilation] . We meet again . ”

The one coming over is the [Stew uncle] . I even ran into him a lot yesterday .

“Hello, is uncle aiming for the Silver Grizzly?”

“Stop with calling me an uncle, okay? That’s right, I’ve been meaning to get me some huge prey from around here . ”

“Isn’t that unreasonable recklessness?”

“Really, what mouth is saying these things . Listen here, now all those people who take up the extermination mission for the Silver Grizzly, those guys are the same ones who saw your duel that evening . ” (TL: idiom meaning stop talking bullshit)

“What do you mean?”

“Everyone got inspired by you . Such a decent fight, my blood is boiling for battle . ”

Everyone seems to be itching for a fight .

If say such a big prey like a Silver Grizzly appeared, it is always natural for those guys who wait-and-see to end up gathering together for a subjugation .

“So, are you also participating in the subjugation?”

When trying to think of an answer, I felt a considerable amount of eyes from the surroundings . It’s seems whether or not I’m joining is important information .

“No, I intend to decline this time . Well, it’s likely I will participate if it’s not been subjugated in one or two months . ”

My true feelings about this are… The Silver Grizzly seems to be considerably tough . Above all there is still that mission to find the [Demon] that was requested of me .

It’s just a thought, but the surrounding air seems to have relaxed a little .

“Is that so? Though it’s probable that you could kill it in no time . ”

“Not at all . ”

“Is that so?”

“That’s right . I heard it’s hide is terribly tough . Perhaps even my sword can’t cut it . ”

“Still you seem to have a chance there . ”

I shrugged my shoulders and told the man that it was an overstatement . Anyway, I told him not to be reckless and I parted with the uncle again .

Ten minutes passed since I parted with the uncle . Zir had woken up, so we left the Adventurer’s Guild .

“I’m fill’d with pangs of hunger, is’t not dinner time yet . ”

We, who had gone out of the guild, decided to follow Zir’s suggestion and have lunch .

The menu had numerous meat dishes . However I want to eat fish, but there is nothing but river fish around here . They stink of mud and are not very tasty .

Should we venture out to a coastal village for the purpose of eating fish just once?

Well, there is still the quest about finding the [Demon] .

“Ruby, was there a reaction?”

Ruby *trembled* *trembled* as if to convey [no] . However, it still quivers when it is a [yes], but it’s still possible to understand it .

Is this the effect of the monster tamer?

“So there’s nothing from the demon, huh . ”

The [Demon Detector] I received from Giren did not detect anything at all .

The detector is the size of a washing machine and weight as one, too . In its current form it cannot be carried around .

However, it is obstructive . I strongly insisted on that . I was at a loss, when Ayla said [Let’s have ruby carry it] . (TL: poor ruby . )

I see, and in Ruby’s body we can still pay the [Demon Detector] by starting to throw in some magic stones .

The [Demon Detector] seems to be working without a problem in Ruby’s body, so we decided to leave it in .

“Well, it’s probably because we have walked nothing but around the Adventurer’s Guild . ”

The effective distance of the detector seems to be about 100m . As such, I think it is short compared to the weight of the equipment, I heard that they were going to load the machine in a carriage and drive it around .

Was Giren going to lend out the carriage to us or try to sell it . What is that? A separate sale cheat?

Well, I did not buy it thanks to Ruby .

“How about we wander around where there is a lot a people for a bit?… It will be a date . ”

Amy was unmotivated, but said it was a thoughtful idea . However, it’s not a date . Ayla showed no reaction .

“Let’s do it, since there’s no other way . ”

When we started to leave a shop, Ruby’s body shook with a sudden *twitch* .

“Master, there seems to be a reaction . ”

It seems to be approaching this way rapidly .

“No way, did it notice us and is trying to attack?”

“No that isn’t possible, there’s no way to become aware of the detector even in the slightest . ”

In other words, did it approach here by chance?

The target seems to have already reached the front of the shop . It will be quite a coincidence as it is if it passes by our shop .

If the target attacks, it will have a sharper detection range than the one we have .

We became tense from not knowing the other side’s attitude .

Shall we pass? Or do we attack?

Who is it?

“I’m sorry~ I overslept~”

The answer, [A shop assistant who overslept and was late for a part-time job] .
