"... I'm reporting a request, now, okay?

Back in Malt, Shayla was there when she headed to the Adventurers' Union Guild reception.

"Yes, it's fine. Mr. Lent was received this time...... oh, you're from the other day's Krask village. To say they came this way, no problem?

"... No, I don't know"

I can say that I certainly did not have a problem with the point of saying whether or not I finished the request well.

However, this request followed a relatively special history.

You should explain that to me.

"Is there something wrong?

As an Adventurer's Union "Guild" employee with quite a bit of experience, she's uncomfortable with the way I say it. That's what Shayla subtly asks.

"Ah... the request from the village of Krask was a crusade of about five boners who appeared in the village. I'm relatively done with that..."

"Anything else?

"It is. There were definitely five skeletons wandering around the village, but other than that, they showed up. When I checked it out, I found out that it wasn't just a wild boner wandering around, it was a boner occurring around the village of Krask."

"When that happens... many adventurers will be interrupted there, but Mr. Lent...?

Shayla's a lot, but probably a little more than half.

That also means if it's a copper adventurer party of strength that it's subtle if you have five or more boners on the boulder.

If you are a person or party with a source of bone people, a strong person who can manage as long as it is about, and who has top strength even in the bronze class, you will not interrupt the request with this much.

It is not alarm or overconfidence, because if there is such a source, it is dangerous if we do not clean it up as soon as possible.

Leave me alone for a few months, and sometime I had a bunch of hundreds of bone men, and I can't even look at them when it happened.

Of course, it's rarely that far into boulders, but that doesn't mean it's unlikely.

So the other half of the adventurers keep working on the request uninterrupted.

There could be a renegotiation of rewards and conditions.

I answer Shayla.

"Oh, I kept asking. So, I also found the source of the bone man... and I purified it with holy water. So there won't be any more bone men."

"Is that what happened? That being the case, for the increase in the request fee…"

"I also had that consultation with the village chief. This time the village was pretty much destroyed. So considering that, I said no. However, they just took care of food and accommodation costs, and received rare ingredients and plant offerings. Well... it wouldn't have been bad"

"Was that so...... I guess that's all the situation and I'm not going to give it a ride or anything from the beginning, and if there doesn't seem to be any other allowance I'll have to think of it as an adventurer union" guild, "but if Mr. Lent says so, I guess it's no problem. By the way, what are some rare plants?

That's what Ribble mentioned when he was eating and I had no idea it was in that neighborhood...... something called Lutet grass, an extremely rare plant.

An important plant incorporated into the power mechanism of a small machine, which can be sold for a considerable amount of money if flowed towards Wang Du.

To be honest, if you sell it on the right route, it will be higher than this request.

So I was offered it to some extent, which was a considerable black deficit at that point.

That's why I blurted out a lot to Shayla, but her eyes were clearly like this, insisting.

I know that you are a rare plant, and if so, please spit out that information.

Shayla's been with me for a long time now, so you know exactly who I am...

Well, it's nothing. It's information I'm not even going to hide in the extreme.

I also explained to the libbles that Lutet grass is a product of such value that it can produce considerable profits if well managed.

So I blurred in this report because I wondered if we should hide it until the people of the Ribbles and Krask villages had some prospects about production control...

Well, if this happens, you'd rather seek help than hide it through.

I tell Shayla.

"There are some lutet grass flocks in that village. I got a few bunches of that. That's why it's no problem."

"Lutet grass......!? You've had a lot of information again...... It's very difficult to cultivate artificially, so it can't be produced in large quantities other than in its original habitat... Lent taught me that."

"I was surprised, too. I knew it was a periphery around here, so it's fun because that's what I find. I explained the value of Lutet grass to the villagers, and I told them about the known cultivation management method, so I think they will bring it to Malt. There are some pedestrians in Krask Village who go around on a regular basis, so I think they will come to Malt from there..."

According to Ribble's story, regular pedestrians would honestly take that route because it meant they were purchasing a bunch of Krask Village specialties and selling them in Malt.

Even so, it explains to the village chief the rough wholesale price of Lutet grass so that they do not want to be bought in the extreme.

That village will be quite moist from now on.

But Shayla leaned her neck against my words,

"... a merchant in the village of Krask...? That's crazy. I do have a record of pedestrians coming and going on a regular basis until ten years ago...... as far as I can tell, there doesn't seem to be anyone like that here other than the merchants who happened to go around there...... I'll check with the commercial union later..."

That's what I said.

"Hmm? But he did come... and it didn't feel like he wanted to buy something special or make an unfair deal."

"Really? Then maybe it's a simple recording error? But find out more about pedestrians. And... we're talking about the origin of the bone man, specifically...?
