Me, Adventurer! - Undoubled Skills Are Flat Magic

The commercial guild was a three-story building somewhat near the square on the way from the West Gate to the city's central square. Like other shops and private houses, it looks like a sturdy building made of wood and stone piles. Large windows open on walls facing the street, but not glass doors. The fact that you don't see it in the city may mean that there is no glass.

There is a wide lobby as you creep through the heavy wooden doors of the kannon opening, with a few round tables on the right. Is it a business meeting that a group of middle-aged men are discussing? In the back there is a staircase that goes up to the second floor. The front is a 3 point of contact counter with one man and two women sitting. Probably an official. There seems to be no desk service right now, so I'm doing something like office work. On the left side, there are about two wooden benches that seat four people, front and rear. I guess I'll use it to wait. Behind it is a wall, with a simple one-way door. It's like a toilet, apparently.

I'm heading to the desk behind the village chief.

The mayor's hand is gripped with a bag with an ax and demon stone. The luggage for the trip is in the napsack on my back, and I carry it in the napsack as well.

"I'd like to ask you to redeem the Demon Stone.

The village chief cut it out that way in front of a male employee in the back left, someone with a veteran-like atmosphere around 40. Two other women are only about 20 years old, so this man may be the head of the contact.

"Yes, I accept. This way, please.

I guess that's a common request there, I've put out a shallow plate about 20 cm in diameter from under the counter. You mean let me out here. But hey...

"I'm sorry, but it's pretty massive. And I want to ask you before the cash changeover, how much is the market going to go down when there's a ton of demon stones out there?

"Don't worry about it. Demon stones are always in short supply, and even if you sell them in small quantities, the value won't drop first.

The staff returns it so that they can see someone in a bit of trouble.

Commercial guilds only buy some big-eyed demon stones. Buying little demon stones is an Adventurer's Guild. Large demon stones can be taken from demons of strength proportional to their size, but strong demons are not frequently hunted, and large demon stones are absolutely small in quantity. No matter how many commercial guilds, it's usually a dozen unit deal, no matter how many. The deal is also with guilds and lords of the city near the enchantment. A dozen, at best, are the mountains of Sekiyama, such as those who bring their own demonic stones.

I guess that's why it's this reaction. He even floats to mockery at his mouth with the look of someone who clearly looks pathetic, such as a female employee next door. I know how you feel, but don't put it on your face if you're an official.

"Well, I was relieved to hear that. Then ask for this.

A niggardly laughing village chief raises the bag he was lowering in one hand to the counter, about 1x1m, a bag swollen in bread. As soon as I put him on the counter, a heavy noise called Dosun and a light noise called Pakin sounded. Apparently, the plate that was on the counter broke. Well, you can't help it, can you? That's the one who told me to put it there.

In front of a male employee who stood up surprised, the village chief opens the mouth of the bag. As a matter of course, the Demon Stone is tightly packed.

"Hey, Ko, what's this!?

"How long is the assessment going to take? Whoa, Beat, get your demon stones evaluated at last. There would have been about 30 of them, wouldn't there?

"Yeah, okay. Then I'll ask for this, too.

I take the demon stone out of my napsack in a sachet. That's about it. I might have gotten a critical ride on an earlier plate. But that plate is crushed under the bag, so I'll put it right next to that bag.

Male and neighboring female officials cannot hide their surprises and their eyes are nailed to massive amounts of demonic stones.

… And excuse me! We will assess it now, so please wait there. We'll call you when we're done, so may I ask your name?

A restarted male employee asks in a more obvious and polite manner than earlier. It's cash. But big customers need to be taken care of.

"Oh, it's Dantes. Then I asked for it.

"Dear Dantes, I understand. So wait a minute... Dantes? No, no way!

When the village chief named him, the male employee seemed to notice something. Will there be another 'whirlwind' here!? I thought, the village chief left the counter and just dropped his hips on the bench. Has it bothered you to deal with boulders? But it may be hard to live in the city with so much visibility. Maybe the village chief was pulling into the border because he wanted to avoid this kind of trouble. If so, I feel a little sorry for pulling you out of the city this time because of me.

"Mayor, I'm sorry.

"Hmm? What? Is something wrong?

"You're supposed to come out of town because of me...

"Oh, don't worry about that. As far as I'm concerned, I'd like to thank you.... I've been thinking a lot about how to develop the village further, but I don't have any good ideas. The best thing was to increase the number of people, but the means... Buying slaves was the easiest thing to do, but the question is what to do with your ex. To make and sell more potatoes, you have to increase the number of fields to make more, but to do so, you need manpower, and it feels like you have a former hand… Even hunting demons was dangerous to the big men in the Great Forest with our arms. That's when I found out you were a wizard, got a ton of demon stones, and it's the magic of physical strengthening. New slaves can be bought with this extraordinary income, and more people can use physical enhancement to hunt demons steadily. There's nothing to be apologized for, even if you're thankful.

Apparently, it was too much of a spin. I guess half of what you say is adult consideration.

"... honestly, it's a shame to let you go. But I can't handle you with my talent. It will be difficult for the Royal Palace Leader to stop the Inago herd without damage. They don't vandalize the woods, they hunt dozens of demons from the Great Forest. I'm convinced you're the son of a god of war, right?

Mayor, you overestimate me a little. I'm not such a big person. I'm just a little Osama in my head. No, you're already 30 years old when you pair it with a previous life, me... a little dented. Wow.

"... I'm your father and your mother's child.

"... heh, heh! Right, you were born in our village, son of Glenn and Saffron, beat! Ha ha!

They got into some kind of village chief's bump. The people in the building turn to the village chief who suddenly laughed. We immediately lost interest and went back to our own errands.

"Um, Master Dantes? Sorry to welcome you, but could the evaluator talk to you and come to the reception room upstairs?

It was the male employee who spoke to us like that earlier.
