When I arrived at the alchemy guild, I opened the entrance with a sorro and looked inside.
Then, inside was a single receptionist who was fluffy and absent-minded.
I'm going to ask the receptionist first if it's possible to pay for the alchemy room later before consulting with Rainrich.
''So, how did it go? Did you sell it right?
Oh, my God.
Suddenly, I was surprised to be approached from behind and when I walked in, I saw Rainrich smiling nastily.
She was the receptionist who was taken aback, but she gently said, "Welcome back.
''Uh ... well ...''
I have to say it ... and I don't even know if I'll ever be a two-day acquaintance, but I have to say it.
No you don't have to say anything. It's obvious from the smell and the haggard look on his face. Rhett. From now on, you will not be supplying the Guild of Adventurers with any recovery medicine.
'Er, ah, yes. But is that okay?
Of course. If they don't move, there's nothing we can do for them.
'Well...'
"Hm. Most of them must have thought you were from the Pharmaceutical Guild and were trying to harass you. I just matched you up with a guy who's good at what he does.
Oh, you're sure about this? We're in financial difficulties because people are just pouring into the pharmaceutical guild, and the only people left are those who are only interested in their own research...
Riette, I've known you a long time. You know that, right? I'm angry, and I am.
Yes, yes. Well, we'll start delivering the goods tomorrow...
Today! As long as those guys don't come to apologize, I'll just buy some expensive potions from the Pharmaceutical Guild at best.
Yes, sir.
Is the receptionist called Rite? She went into the back room with a bang.
I'm more afraid of Rainrich.
And.........so......do you think we can pay for the alchemy room afterwards? I think I'm going to make an ingot and sell it....
I don't mind that much. I'm sure you've had more unpleasant experiences than that, but are you going to start smelting right away? You're really a good kid who cares about the guild. I'm sorry to say I'm sorry.
No, I really didn't have any money. And I forgot to sell my necklace.
You can take your necklace to the armor shop. They'll probably give you half the price, but they'll pay you for it.
Oh, I see. So now...
Not today. It'll save you a lot of trouble if you go to the armor shop tomorrow.
Yeah, that too. Yeah. You know what, Reinrich?
What is it?
'Well, thank you for being mad at me. That makes me feel a little better.
"Hmph. I'm not doing this for you. I'm going to have to make do with this.
Tsundere........doesn't seem to be.
Well, it wouldn't be a bad thing if Rainrich used him.
You look like a very bad person, though. Yeah, I know. It's going to be okay... right?
'Oh, yes. Do you know how much a slave and a house cost?
What's the use of slaves?
'No, just for your information...'
.........men are........ It's all right.
No? Not because I'm a man, okay? Oh, but I'd like a beautiful girl anyway.
But I'm sure there's a lot of heavy lifting involved, so I think we need a guy too. Yeah.
You can buy slaves from 100,000 knolls and some cost tens or hundreds of millions of knolls. The most expensive slaves are the daughters of illegitimate aristocrats, or some defeated royalty, and they're usually auctioned off.
Cheap! I don't care if the minimum is 100,000 because I have an image of aristocrats and royalty who seem selfish and don't work.
It's not so bad for a house. A normal house costs at least 10 million knol. 10 million knol is probably a small and dirty house. If I wanted to buy a slave, I'd need a house with a size of 80 million knolls.
Oh. But 80 million........what kind of mansion is that?
We still have a long way to go, but if we work hard, it doesn't seem far off.
I'll be holed up in the alchemy room and start making accessories first.
I can't afford to stay here for several days, so I need to earn money for accommodation and food, as well as this and the next alchemy room.
For now, 'Twisted Iron Necklace' is enough. If I can get it right, it's just a silver coin. There's no harm in getting used to it.
After making an ingot and dividing it into eight equal parts, I picked up one of the ingots and reminded myself to smelt it.
The Twisted Iron Necklace.
There's no effect, no +, and it's in hiragana, so it failed this time.
It's not good. Thanks to Rainrich, I feel better, but I'm still a bit cloudy inside.
That's proof that you're not focused enough.
I don't want to seem to run away from work when I'm having a bad day, but let's focus and work on it slowly here.
As I continued to apply the alchemy, only the last two were successful in the end.
Both of them have a defense +2, so they could be sold for 10,000 nol.
Ah, but at an armor shop, it was half the price.
This wasn't very encouraging, so I just put the iron out on the desk to make some more.
I'm sorry!
I heard the old man's loud apology from the other side of the door.
'You can't help apologizing,' he said. I'm a stickler for what I decide to do. I won't be supplying potions to the Adventurer's Guild anymore. I plan to deal with the peddlers.
''Do something about that... the guys in the pharmaceutical guild only sell recovery potions (medium) and above. The price is out of reach for a new adventurer, and even a mid-level adventurer can't afford many of them.
I don't give a shit. It's just a consequence of your own mismanagement.
'So that was a mistake......... If you say so.........
''I don't care what those people who left the alchemy guild did. I'm sure there was a guy in your place who left the guild and became a bandit, were you responsible for that?
Rainrich also seems to be getting more enthusiastic and his voice is getting louder.
''And why didn't the little girl over there check her guild affiliation? You're supposed to check on the guild before you start trading, and that's what you failed to do. Isn't that lass someone the guild hired?
'No, it's just that...'
'What's the matter with you? These pretty, skilled disciples literally came home crying after being sprayed with a potion that they put their hearts and souls into. Don't think you'll get away with it for free!
Hey, Reinrich. You can't tell me when I came home from work crying.
And my apprentice........is this how it is with me?
"My dear Mr. Rainerich, would you please listen to what I have to say...
Shut your mouth, you little red b*tc*! You think you're the one who interceded, but it's your own fault and you covered for your family members. I didn't intercede, I just let you go.
Hey, lady! Aina helped you!
Does it help to stop a man's willpower? So a death with honor is just a wasted death? Then Haylon, the S-level adventurer who saved Ainshail, died in vain.
I never said that!
The voice of the red-haired beauty and whose voice is that? It sounds like something I've heard before........
Ah! The red-haired beauty and her cuddly dog ears.
I don't know if she's here too.......I don't like that type of person.
It's like they don't listen to you.
Anyway. I'd like to talk to him. I'd like to see this put to rest once he's satisfied.
I don't think so. Can you stop being a bad influence on the boy? She is a brilliant alchemist who was able to create a recovery potion in just one day. It would be unbearable to mess with an adventurer who thinks he can solve everything with your kind of power and ruin it.
Come on, Reinrich. I mean, it's embarrassing, isn't it?
Heh.
"Oh...
You know what I mean. From now on, that kid is going to become more and more excellent. She was supposed to make a lot of recovery potions (small), too. And then you guys ruined it for me.
Rainrich looks like he's having fun.
He's enjoying himself as if he's got the head of a demon or something.
That's good. Do more.
And more.
Hey, it looks like Reinrich is about to release his secret weapon.
I'm telling you...
That's the kid Hayato brought back. You're not stupid enough to know what this means.
What? Huh.........you're Hayato the Dragon Killer! The Hayato? That Hayato? S-grade?
Yeah, yeah. That's the falcon, the S-Class, the dragon-slayer, the Count, the hero.
".........................
Hayato is awesome!
S-grade is probably the top of the class, right? And the dragon killer? Did you kill a dragon? Humans?
Maybe it's not a komodo dragon or some other pussy.
So you're a count and a hero?
In the story, we're already past the middle of the story.
I'm sorry you ran into someone like me at some point like that!
Hey, Rainerich, when Hayato introduced me to you, didn't you call me Hiyoko?
You only raise it when it's convenient.
Don't think you don't know what I mean. You said you saved the boy's life. If you had cut off an arm, I would have ordered all the Alchemy Guilds to forbid you to deliver it to the Adventurer's Guild. That's my way of speaking to Hayato, who introduced me to the boy. Do you still think you saved her?
'Well...'
Hm. That's enough, doggie. So how do you take responsibility? Master of the Adventurer's Guild?
It's settled. I can see Rainrich looking down at the master of the Adventurer's Guild with his arms crossed and legs crossed, completely battered.
The two Red Front members also shushed down after Hayato's name was mentioned.
The receptionist girl is probably pale in the face.
Well, she has a bad mouth and a bad attitude, so I won't pity her, but........
''The adventurer in question will be expelled from the guild and she will be asked to resign from the guild. Also, how about a deal for the next three years at 10% of our profit margin?
Oh, whoa?
Do the first two create a risk factor?
But this, the latter would be quite a deal breaker.
''Isn't that an agreement between the guilds? No consolation money or anything for the kid personally? I don't get it. He's gone.
'Wow, okay. I'll give him a million nol from the Adventurer's Guild...
Wow, that's a lot of 20,000 Nors, multiplied by 50.
My ears are deaf. Are the orders different?
Oh no, you're looking at your feet too much like 10 million knolls.
Ten million?
Is this an uninsurable accident!
It's not too much to pretend, is it?
I don't think you have a clue, do you? You have no idea what she's going to do for you adventurers in the future, do you? Once things have gone sour, they can't come back. When I say I'm going to bring that situation back, I don't see how a mere million dollars can do it.
'But the guild's assets...'
All right. I'll pay for his visit.
Aina?
Hmm? What do you mean?
'I'm sorry, Sorte. This is my fault.
'I don't care! I mean, that kind of money...! You're impossible!
Yeah. Yeah, I think I'm going to fall into slavery. I'm rude, but I have a reputation as an adventurer, and I think it would be expensive.
How could you do that to me? You don't have to put so much of yourself on the guild's shoulders!
Slavery? Is that beautiful woman going to be a slave?
'I took responsibility for stopping and arbitrating that dispute. That arbitration was wrong, and I have an obligation to take responsibility for it.
You're all over the place! How f*cking serious can you be!
I'm sorry.
What about ... the adventure?
I'm sorry...
Don't keep apologizing...
Can you do it someplace else? So what's your decision?
Rainrich, suuuuuuupwaaaduraaay.
And this is not the time to be silly.
I feel like things are getting kind of overblown.
As for me, I'm grateful enough to get a million knolls.
I'm a commoner.........
''It's.........''
'If it's compensation to him, I'll pay for it with my body. I'll ask for a decision once I'm in his possession. As for any other dealings, both guildmasters will decide.
'I don't know! You're on your own! But I'll go with you to the slave-shop!
Yeah. All right. I'm really sorry.
Hmm.
Okay. We'll call it 10 million knolls worth of profit for that kid personally. So, let's see, you're willing to trade between the guilds for ten percent of your profits for four years?
It's a lot of years, Mr. Rainerich.
You are an ogre, aren't you?
I'm sure the reprimand will come back to you someday....
I understand..... And so I'll take care of you.
Oh my god, even the Adventurer Guildmaster has dejectedly agreed.......
''This will be the contract document.
Hey, Mr. Rhett, you're well prepared, too.
You've been following the quirks for years. That's the speed you were determined to say a year more at!
So they can hear you anyway, right? Come on out.
Valetera.
You're here. To be honest, it's hard for me to show my face.
The air is definitely heavy, and if I'm not good at it, they'll probably look at me like I'm the enemy of my parents.
What are you doing here, hurry up and come here.
Dear Mr. Rainerich, your voice scares me.
But I'm a boy, too. I'm going to open the door.
The moment I open the door, people will notice.
I know. I don't like this feeling.
As I suspected, the two members of the Adventurer's Guild are pale and pale, and Aina is looking at you with a clear-cut expression, but Solte is looking at you with a glare.
It's not my fault!
'I'm really, really sorry.... As you may have heard, as an apology to you, I have decided to become your slave. You can go to the slavers and find out the price before you decide whether you want to keep it or sell it. Will you please allow me to do so?
Wow.
Wow.
Heartbreaking.
I can't believe that such a beautiful woman would be your slave.
And Aina, you're not just skinny, you have a great body. There's so much going on in there, and there's so much going on in there.
But you know what?
It's heavy!
It's too heavy!
They just sprayed some potion on me!
No, there was definitely more anger in that moment than just that one, though!
This isn't it! There's something different about it!
Aina's ratio in this case isn't that high!
What's my lucky EX or something?
Do you actually have a LUK in your hidden status and you're a canker?
If you did, you wouldn't run into the caterpillar first!
I like that kind of thing.........
I want to live in peace.........
So I said to myself: "I refuse!
"I refuse to accept!
