Me, Adventurer! - Undoubled Skills Are Flat Magic

The entrance to the Adventurer Guild, pushing open both open doors, overflowed with the unique hustle and bustle of the tavern and the smell of liquor. Looks like the Alliance Bar is open.

But the hustle and bustle stopped in an instant, and within the guild was filled with silence. What's going on?

Adventurers sitting at the counter or table on the wall are stopping this one from moving. I'll turn around wondering if there's anyone behind me, but Woo and his delightful friends, all the bandits he's taken. If you follow the gaze of the adventurers, I'm sure I'm the one watching them. Ha?

One of these days I heard Boso talking to me, so I'm going to stand there and listen.

"That's the secret child of 'Whirlwind'... you're young.

"You're not a kid yet, are you serious?

"I was watching Atashi from the top of the fence, no doubt about it. That's the Neck Hunting Rat. If you spare your life, don't lay your hands on it.

What's that!? A neck hunting rat is about me!? Could it have been 'Two Names'!?

"Dear Beat, can I help you?

"... no, it's nothing.

Maybe he's a rat because he's tiny and his hair is gray. Two cooler names would have been better. But it hurts too much to name your own... uuuu, I'm convinced, but I'm not convinced! "Little Whirlwind" was better yet!

Head to the counter with the items hanging.

The Adventurer Guild is basically open 24 hours a day. There will be requests that can only be made in the middle of the night, and there will be urgent requests. Like yesterday's goblin.

On the counter that was open was sitting a cat ear sister I met on the first day.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I haven't finished my assessment yet. Will you come back around lunch tomorrow?

"No, it's not about that today, I brought you here because I caught a bandit.

Cat ear I felt your sister's eyes gleam for a moment.

"Well, really? Thank you for your hard work. So, you'll bring me here, huh?

Pull the rope connecting the bandits and head for the aisle behind the waiting space. Turning left and right several times along the way, once I went down the stairs and knocked at a door that looked sturdy, it was a dungeon there. Locally, it's right under the counter. With a thick wooden lattice embedded in stone construction, there are four rooms lined up to the left and right, reminiscent of the Times play's jail. The size of a room is about 10 tatami tatami, with blankets and a few furs. Looks like a cell for a few people. It smells like a mixture of mold and dirt. The large pot placed in the corner of the room would be the toilet.

"So will you throw me out of here? I didn't keep my neck rope.

Is that it? Why don't you just throw it in all of a sudden without an investigation or something? Cat Ear Sister prompts me to throw all the bandits into the deepest chamber, as I was told.

"This is a detention facility. Don't worry, I can get out tomorrow. The best place to go is the temple, I'm taking you to enslave you.

I see, after the hearing is enslaved. Speaking of which, you did in Border Sets.

Cat-eared sister speaking with a laugh at the bandits thrown in jail. I knew it was a cat. You're wearing your prey. I'm a little scared.

The bandits were blue-faced, but there was no particular noise. I guess I gave up a lot at the time they brought me to the guild.

"Well, Mr. Beat, I'd like to hear your story. I haven't even dated upstairs in the reception room.

◇

"Then did the village of Senna perish! Oh, my God!

When Mr. Imelda slapped his right fist on the table, a cup of tea brought to me by Cat Ear Sister made a noise with Cottori. It's a wooden cup, so there's no loud noise.

Mr. Imelda and I are sitting across the table. Kikka sits next to me, but the rest of us stand in line behind me. Positively, it's because we're slaves, because Cristela insisted on sitting with us. Kikka's not a slave yet, and she's a witness to this one. Woo's at my feet, and he's round as usual. Soothing wow like a big hairball.

"When are we going on a crusade?

"... I can't do it now.

"Why not!? Do bandit crusades become guild business!?

Mr. Imelda answers my question in agony. Kikka barked upside down at the answer.

"Even I want to send a crusader right now! But yesterday's goblin raid is running out of supplies, and enough adventurers in the first place!

"Speaking of which, I think I heard that story yesterday. There are no high-ranking adventurers. Why is that?

Not that I feel like it, but stealing a conversation between Mr. Imelda and an Alliance employee... no, it's on my little ear.

"War. The Viscount who rules this city is the guild's manager, but he has gathered adventurers to take him to this war.

Mr. Imelda did not absurd his voice, but gave a pale account of the situation. I see, so the deputy manager, Mr. Imelda, has a partition?

"If you do adventurers, you'll have a bear wrapped around you in a tavern downstairs. Yikes! If I took those guys, yeah!?

Kikka seems still uncomfortable and bites Mr. Imelda. Well, you think so, normally. But me, who can detect signs, and maybe Cristella, also use balance magic to understand the situation. They can't take them.

"The adventurers in this city right now are all low-ranked. If you take him to a crusade request, he won't just be a fighter, or there's a good chance he'll be a foot wrapper.

"No...

Yes, the adventurers in the tavern aren't very strong. From the signs, it doesn't even extend to the bandits I've caught at my leisure. Well, those guys are really mercenaries.

In the first place, I thought it was weird since yesterday. Even though I'm an adventurer, I have a slightly higher female ratio, and men are only old or young. He's a young man. He's not my brother-in-law.

"But if we don't crusade, we're gonna lose a lot more villages, right? Because I'm not a regular bandit.

"!... Mr. Beat, what do you know?

Mr. Imelda's eyes get tight. Increasing intimidation conveys signs of barometric kickass and Lucas taking their breath. Unfortunately, I'm not as good as the village chief, so I can afford to flush it out. Cristella hasn't moved either. Woo stays asleep, but his ears are picky and busy peeking around. It's cute.

"Maybe as much as Mr. Imelda knows. Oh, my people are fine. Because my mouth is strong. Kikka's going to be one of mine tomorrow, so we won't be able to talk outside.

Mr. Imelda kept staring at me for a while, but I guess because I didn't see any movement at all, he sighed like he'd given up and turned away.

"At all, are you really an adventurer and a stand-up 7-year-old? Didn't Lord Whirlwind let go, he couldn't handle it and threw it out?

Terrible! The village chief sent me off so fast!... but I also feel like they said I can't handle it. Was I in trouble?

"If you know what's going on, talk fast. They're Jerkin or some backward disturbance personnel sent in by Nolan. The aim is to destabilize public opinion in our country and stall supplies.

"Is that true!?

"Yeah, maybe for sure. The guys I caught today answered that when I hung up on them. They're sending it not only here, but also to Bordersetz and Ende.

"Oh, no! Listen to me! Better keep everyone informed and alert. Yeah!?

Kikka's opinion, at first glance, is not a good idea.

"You can't do that. I don't know if informing you will change anything, but it will make things worse.

"Huh?"

"" Be careful because there are more bandits, "and" Be careful because soldiers from enemy countries disguised as bandits are attacking the village, "doesn't make a difference to consolidating defenses as a village, does it?

"... let it go.

"But if the other guy was a soldier from another country, not a bandit, there'd be a guy out there trying to get in. 'I'm not a bandit-like outlaw, so you can tell'. So I give them a guide to attack the village and try to survive just myself. In the end, villages are attacked and lost, or if they suck, they become the hideout of enemy nations from village to village. So now it's best not to let you know.

"Mmm, I see.

Kikka seems to have convinced me. But actually, this is just one of the reasons. The worst part is the increase in the number of anti-war fighters.

Anti-warriors are in any age, in any country. If we learn that the country is being vandalized as part of the war, the anti-war doctrines will start lovingly claiming a ceasefire. Don't even think about it as a de facto defeat. And the people will be flushed out loud and easy. The country will shake.

If we lose the war, everything will be lost.

The former Union of Soviets lost the country itself as a result of the war between East and West: the Cold War. Civil wars broke out everywhere, dividing into a number of countries. Human resources have spilled even nuclear weapons out of the country. In Eastern Europe, small countries are disturbed and few people have experienced the pain of painting by incompetent national lords.

That's what losing a war is all about. Nothing more than being robbed of everything and trampled on. You can't lose a war.

The war has already begun. And they're attacking us from the other side. If I put forward a truce proposal or something, they'll take everything with them in a defeated state. In order to avoid it, we must also avoid an increase in the number of anti-war fighters.

Anti-war doctrine is not bad in itself. The idea of honoring peace is a noble thing. It's just not a good time now that it's a story until the war begins and the end of the war is already open. The country will be disturbed. So now you should hide the presence of the rear disturbance personnel.

"Nevertheless, you can't hit nothing. We're an adventurer's guild for that.

Mr. Imelda has been staring at me. Not a gaze of intimidation earlier, but the cage of heat is more than just now. I have a bad feeling about this.

"Mr. Beat, I want you to take the nomination request. The request is for the extermination of the bandit who attacked the village of Senna.

I knew it! I felt that way, ever since I was called into this room!

"I'm also a rookie with no stars in my crusade ranks?

"I ravaged and showed both goblins yesterday, if you have that skill, enough is enough. Plus, with that Goblin Crusade feat, I've already decided to give your Crusade Rank a 4-Star. Congratulations, you've reached the fastest, youngest 4-star in history.

Uh, will that happen? I only meant it a little yesterday. Well, it's not a request I can't make, so it's not a rush to take it. It's also Kikka's enemy.

"How much is the reward? Because working is just unacceptable as an adventurer.

"You're really solid. Let me have a reasonable amount, naturally. 1 large gold coin in advance and 2 more large gold coins as a reward for success. Apart from that, it looks like one gold coin will come out for each bandit who caught him alive. Whatever treasure the bandits have saved is yours. [M]

Hmm, I don't think the reward itself is bad. When I was in Border Sets, I was a total of 12 bandits and two big gold coins. Even considering the large number of people this time, the reward is good. Plus, I like that you get treasure. At the Count's behest, I offered it free of charge, except for money. As village chief, it would have been nice to make a loan. This time I get that all round. Looks like we're one step closer to the goal of buying a house.

"Fine. I will accept that request.

"Thank you. Tell me if you need anything. Prepare it here.

"Then we quote more ropes for restraint for 20 people. And it's good for tomorrow morning, so I need a trolley and personnel for escort.

Maybe he left some company at the base. Besides, carrying a captured bandit is a lot of work. I felt it today. If you don't have a carriage or luggage, you can't help but travel. You can use magic as soon as you want, but I want to avoid being known.

"And then the crusade will be between me and Cristella. Make sure you both get the request.

"Are you sure? Some of the guys down there, a little bit of an arm stander, huh?

"No, that's fine. Because I'm in the way.

"Oh well. Okay."

Truncate with Zuba. Magic is hard to use when others are around. I don't even want to shackle you in the present situation, where there's not enough information.

"Anything else you need? We're gonna do everything we can to help you, okay?

"Right, and then..."

When I was thinking about what I needed, I heard a noise from behind called 'Khuuuuuuuuuu'. When I look at her, Anya holds her belly down with a pitiless face, and she complains to me with her eyes. I ask Mr. Imelda to smile bitterly.

"Can you prepare dinner for the number of people? Everyone hasn't eaten yet.

Don't tell me you can't fight when you're hungry.
