Opening an orphanage in another world

_________________________________________________

Ram and Gizzere are currently sitting on the guild master room of the merchant guild. The husband and wife, though having a wide age gap of fifteen years apart, are still as lovely as ever. They're currently discussing about their findings regarding the sudden surge of medications magically available in the market after Princess Diana and the young healers treated the masses when those from the healing institute if the church refuse to do so

"It's not that obvious, they can just keep the medication for themselves for other uses but instead, they outright sell it back to the market, which mean that the merchants that supports both the nobles and the church must only be thinking of net profit and losses, and driven by fear of losing too much of money, the merchants must have started selling the medication, going against the order from noble and church" [Gizzere]

"I see, well the adventure that we hired to investigate do mention the merchants, the noble and the church aren't that united to begin with. They each have their own personal agendas back on their mind. Even the trio Finral, Erinmorlin and Lisa said the same thing" [Ram]

"Not only that, but our son manages to find the evidence suggesting of monetary embezzlement from the noble which they used to sponsor the R&D department of the church. It still doesn't explain much about their underlying motives as donation to the church alone wouldn't be much of the evidence in the court of law, what more when some of the judges themselves seems to be defending the old follower" [Gizzere]

"Those judges are still the same, even when back I am a noble" [Ram]

"Well, those who enjoys such luxurious life wouldn't want such drastic changes, and when the King and Princess suddenly came out with such a plan, that's to be expected" [Gizzere]

"Hasty, but the much needed plan" [Ram]

"Agree, even though they managed to get us, Sir Ceanu Reaves and several prominent figures on their side, we are still lacking" [Gizzere]

"If only he were to join us, but then again, having a traveler suddenly servicing the country will cause an issue" [Ram]

"I'm sure King Estel and Princess Diana will think of something. Still, judging by how things have been going, I guess he does have been helping our side a lot. Of course, having him working under Princess Diana will be good, but personally, I think that having him taking care of the orphans wasn't that bad" [Gizzere]

"Agree" [Ram]

"Mom, dad, here are the documents that you asked" [Son]

"And here are the updated list of nobles and merchants responsible for it" [Daughter]

"Thank you, why don't all four of us take a break" [Gizzere]

"I would love to" [Daughter]

As we keep ongoing down the floor, I started to notice a pattern. Maybe it's just a coincidence but the more dangerous the environment were, the better the chance of such lucrative drop and loot that we get from the monster. The chances of treasure chest appearing will also increase at such occasions. Well, even back on earth, this pattern have been used by game developers especially those from RPG genre. They will reward the player should they play it on harder difficulty plus, the end game stages or dungeon will also contains the most valuable loots. I guess the same can be applied here

"I did it!" [Karon]

"Good job!" [Elise]

And the last of us that finally managed to use adaptability magic is Karon. I did teach them how to use it as they're all intrigued by it. Plus

"Take this!" [Charlotte]

"Charlotte, don't go around splashing the sea water to other!" [Rean]

"It's salty!" [Savel]

"Why did you taste it?" [Singa]

"Curiosity" [Savel]

"MEOW!" [Behe]

"Curiosity killed the cat" [Ash]

Behe tried to copy Savel's action and gulp the sea water only to quickly spit it out

Ever since we came down to the 19th floor (after tackling the floors containing the water crystal stone, for which they're three of them in the 17th floor), I finally allowed them to at least swim just beside the main road (the thing is,they saw a parent letting their children swims and thus another begging session commence with them getting the win, plus they do look bored having to see the same scenery without actually doing anything, so that's that), of course with me constantly emitting my search and scan magic as well as having the ice shark missiles guarding each of them (and another 5 securing the peripheries). I also make a giant ice missile shark and let it roam around, letting it fought with monster and collecting the loot, which got me thinking

"Something wrong Brother Ash?" [Kara]

"I'm just thinking of using a water magic core to that giant ice shark missile, so that it can become stronger and act more autonomous" [Ash]

"But don't you have one A rank magic core already that you get from slaying the false kraken at 17th floor?" [Mara]

"Why don't you just use that then?" [Zerolith]

"I'm thinking of using it to improve the orphanage water and drainage system, sure Claude's master did a splendid job making a separate water and drainage system that didn't connect to the nation system, but they're old and as such maintenance will be required" [Ash]

"I see, so that mean you want to get another A magic core and use it on that shark?" [Farhah]

"Precisely" [Ash]

Should I went to the 20th floor and below? I do know Ram warned me not to take go while taking care of them, and I'm reluctant myself but just a sneak peek wouldn't hurt much right. There's. better chance of finding strong Megalodon there and should I encounter an S rank monster, I can simply run away

"Are you thinking of going to 20th floor?" [Kara]

"Maybe" [Ash]

"Isn't that dangerous?" [Elise]

"You do have enough water crystal stone now could it be because you want another A rank magic core?" [Mara]

"There is that, and also because a water crystal stone from the 20th floor should be one quality crystal, I thought of giving it to Diana and let her use it to improvise the water and drainage system of the country and use the other as spare parts, or maybe as the second or maybe even third water sources" [Ash]

"I see, that way the endemic disease won't spread like it usually does!" [Rean]

"Precisely, but I will tell this first, should I encounter an S rank monster there, I will abandoned it and we will go back home, got it?" [Ash]

"Yes!" [Kids]

Well, as long as I keep my distance as close as possible to the main road, the chances of finding an S rank monster would be almost nill, but the problem lies in one tiny bit if thing, and that is the crystal are found pretty far out, and not only that, there will always be a monster guarding it. I don't want to jinx it but yeah, I have the feeling the next monster will at least be that of an A rank, or maybe even higher

(Should get myself ready than) [Ash]

With that, we camp out in the 19th floor and descend downward the next day
