“Chapter 141: Scouting”

– Is this a joke? (Rudra)

– On the contrary, I’m quite serious. Just look at this.

Rizerotta put the black stone on the table.

To everyone, it was just a normal meaningless glittery rock.

– This is a Center Stone. It comes from one of those longhorns you killed. Quite rare to find, quite hard to collect. It requires an absurd level of skill to get one of these. Even I don’t see them very often on my work line.

– What level are you, Rizerotta-san?

– My dismantling skills are Level VIII. We have three Level IX adventurers, but none of them are specialized in processing or creation like you. You’re exactly what the Heroes Party is looking for.

The Heroes Party… I’ve heard of them. A group of Level IX adventurers.

Ever told me it was one of their members who defeated Raigoh.

She’s saying I can be part of a group like that?

– Takaya, how much do you earn a month? Answer honestly. (Rizerotta)

– About 70,000S.

– And how much do you want to earn?

– What?

– Name your price.

– 1,000,000S then.

– Are you sure? That’s only half of what I make.

– !!!??? (M/D/R)

– Sorry, I’m sure you think that was an outrageous thing to say, but I hope it shows how serious I am. Or rather, how serious the branch is. What do you say, Takaya?

– But… We had expectations for the kid. We even bought equipment for him. (Feria)

– We’ll pay all your debts in that regard. In fact, we’re willing to give you new members to make use of that equipment. Searat will be much busier from now on, so a little more help wouldn’t hurt.

Feria had no words left.

It’s obvious that the working context I’m being offered is way better…

– I’m sorry, but I refuse.

– Takaya! (Meirir)

Meirir looked happier than everyone else after hearing those words.

– -is what I’d like to say. But depending on the conditions, I’ll have to seriously consider it.
