Dungeon Master Makeup Money

"You're free."

"Right."

Day three after receiving the escort request.

I talked to Melissa next door because of the days of waiting by the carriage without anything else to do.

She had nothing to do either and seems bored and has a cluttered reaction.

Though, it's about our party I'm free to...

"Hey, no magic yet!?

"Please wait a moment longer!

"Leader, I'm here to add more."

"Damn......!

The adventurers who were similarly asked to escort were made to struggle by their attacking bandit counterparts.

But we don't imitate what we do with our hands.

The reason is because their rewards are reduced.

If a demon or bandit attacks you during a request for escort where more than one party is escorting you, it is the adventurer's rule that the demon material you defeat and the bandit's crusade rewards are to be given to the party you fought directly.

If we fight, they'll crusade us in no time.

The adventurers who were anxious to do so entrusted us with escorting the carriage to undertake the bandit crusade they attacked themselves. As an escort, we had to follow their instructions because they were the ones we were taking on first, and we relaxed watching them fight right next to the carriage.

"But is that really a C-rank adventurer?

"Don't take us as a criterion. You're strong enough to handle 30 bandits for a total of nine, four and five parties?

"Exactly. He's strong as a C-rank even when he sees us fighting."

As relaxed as I am, Illis defends the adventurers.

Unlike us, Iris understands the power of the C-rank because he has struggled to gain strength and rank up.

"Good luck"

"Look, don't lose."

Sylvia and Ira are starting to get tired of supporting the adventurers.

Supported by Sylvia, you can regain your temper. Increases the speed of crusading bandits of the male adventurers. Apparently, he wants to show Sylvia a a good place.

There were three female adventurers at the two parties, but the female adventurers, who found out what caused the increase in speed, had a muddled look on their face, but they didn't.

They are female adventurers, but unfortunately all three of them are avant-garde, which makes them naturally muscular and physically large. For that reason, I don't think she likes being supported and empowered by luxurious girls like Sylvia.

"Don't remember the first time we met that you were being asked to escort us like this"

"Speaking of which, you were in the middle of a request for escort back then."

"Are you talking about the first time we met? I'd like to hear it."

"If that's the case, I'll talk to you, the ancient ginseng. When Ira and I first met, she went down."

"Hey! Why are you bringing that story!?

The women have totally begun to thrive on the story of their first meeting.

Some of them were pulled out because they were no longer supportive and the adventurers were depressed or useless, but I let those people take them down.

We weren't allowed to participate in the battle on the road, but that doesn't mean it's never helping.

That's what happened during the camp.

"Can we still have a treat today?

"Fine."

Sylvia, who was preparing a meal for twenty, accepts.

As for the meal, everyone was asked to prepare more to behave.

"Hey, are you always getting such good food cooked!?

"Normally, a camping meal is like a dry meat and a dry bread."

The leaders of the two parties smile at each other with a plate of stew in their hands.

Together they were men in their twenties, originally familiar with their childhood from the same village, but partying separately from their opposing minds to operate. However, he took on the same request this time because he was a child tamer or because he was taking on a similar request.

"Thanks to the storage ring for that and this"

They were beginning to prepare by removing dried meat and dry bread from their own luggage during the first day of camp, showing them taking the utensils and ingredients they needed to cook from the storage ring to the next.

This is why we can have a rich meal when we're camping.

Sylvia does all the main flavoring and so on, but she also helps three other people cut vegetables and meat. Illis hasn't cooked much since he became an adventurer either, but he kept me in the orphanage for as long as I was there to help the staff, which means I have minimal knowledge, so I let him participate in the help.

I'm the only one at the party who can't cook.

They cook for all the women in the party members.

I bought jealousy at the situation again. Moreover, the other female members of the party were trying to chew off a thousand dried meats in a luxurious manner without being able to cook, so Sylvia and the others were getting a jealous glance at being able to cook.

"You're all active adventurers in the King's Capital, aren't you? You never thought about buying a storage ring?

"Don't be silly. Storage rings vary in price depending on their performance, but a replacement like the one you guys are using may require a hundred pieces in gold coins. It's hard to get the money, even if it's a substitute you can get."

Is that what it is?

If it's about a hundred pieces of gold...... no, you can't. Even my father, who was a villager, wished he could make ten gold coins a year. Given that, a hundred gold coins is really expensive.

The feeling of money is starting to freak out because I've become a labyrinth lord.

"And that's a lot of bandits,"

I have asked for escorts several times before, but there is about one time between my destination such as being attacked by a bandit while escorting.

Yet they are attacked like every day. Thirty people today were the more numerous, but yesterday and one yesterday they have been attacked by fifteen bandits.

"Well, it's the war."

"Why not?

"Some soldier who couldn't return to the country because someone overwhelmed the Imperial Army against him is a bandit in the kingdom. Running away before the enemy is a felony."

It seems that the conscripted inhabitants were able to return to their homeland, but heavy punishment awaits those soldiers who have just fled.

Troop troopers cost a fortune. Not only did they return without any fruit, but they were to take responsibility because they escaped without being able to bring back most of the supplies they brought into the kingdom.

It is the Imperial Army who has come to wage war, so I will cut it off as deserved.

"Well, I advise such an active and ranked adventurer"

These people know I'm an active adventurer in the war.

Exactly nothing was known up to our faces beforehand, but it seems from the reaction when we introduced ourselves when we found out all the party members were A-ranked.

In the future, I may keep my rank as secret as possible, and let you know that my rank as a party leader is all I need.

"At this request, I believe the purpose is to take you to the King's Capital."

"We had enough bandits because of the war."

"... Really? I remember being missed along the way."

"That was just a little alarming!

That's what I'll do for you.

Nevertheless, I don't care that much because it was something Mr. Routie and Iris were aware of.

"What do you think the purpose is?

"Were you aware? Too bad, but I don't know what it's all about. But I heard that the man who is the Lord of my client is a merchant with connections to the country. In the worst case scenario, the state can intervene, so be very careful."

"Country, is…"

If you get a lot of eyes from the country, you may not be able to move freely.

I don't intend to get involved with the country because there are circumstances that I have defrauded before.

Gently see my client receiving a plate with a stew made by Sylvia.

This time the client was in charge of transportation at a large chamber of commerce in Wangdu, taking five other men with him to carry out the loading of luggage, etc.

As far as this calming down and eating looks, it doesn't look like you're up to anything, but you can't even guess the merchant, the lord of your client, the humanity of the mastermind that would be behind it.
