CH 187

Ragune was a capable warrior.

The amount of medicinal herbs Tauro had given away was so large that he wanted to prepare a basket to take them home for her because they were too bulky to carry, but Ragune refused.

“I have my own magic storage, so I’ll be fine.”

Saying that, instantly all the medicinal herbs in front of her were cleared out at once.

“Wow! Ragune has multiple valuable skills!”

Aeris was impressed.

“Well of course, I’m still trusted as an excellent warrior in the village of the Dragon People. That’s why I was chosen to be one of the representatives on this journey to find a cure for the epidemic!”

Ragune proudly showed off her honor with her chest.

After all, leaving the village seems to be a rare thing for the dragon tribe.

It may be that going out itself is by permission only.

No wonder there are so few encounters of dragon people in the world.

“It seems to be a long way to the village of the dragon people.”

Tauro was honestly concerned.

If it’s somewhere in the Antas Mountains, as Ragune said, it would take more than a month to get there on foot from here.

Even if she brought back the medicine, it might be too late.

“It took me a long time to get here, but it won’t take me long to get back, so don’t worry. Now then, excuse me for I want to help my friends as soon as possible!”

Ragune said, looked around, and then ran quickly in a southern direction, the opposite direction of the Antas Mountains.

“Ragune-san, south is that way!”

Tauro and Aeris hurriedly called out to her, but she probably didn’t hear them.

“I wonder if she’s extremely directionally challenged?”

“I’m terribly worried. I wonder if she’s going to be okay.”

We were both left with nothing but worry as we met and parted, but it was already dusk and we were heading back to the village of Dansas.

Busy evening.

As usual, Chloe, the head of the Adventurers’ Guild Dansas branch, was also in the reception area.

“The two of you took down so many goblins!”

“Isn’t it amazing? If we hadn’t been helping people along the way, I think we could have taken down even more.”

Aeris was proud because it was the first time she and Tauro had taken down goblins together.

“Helping people? Well, it looks like you’ll both have no problem getting promoted to E+.”

“A promotion! really!?”

Aeris bites into Chloe’s words.

“Yes. I was worried because of your age, but if you can do this well together, you’ll be fine.”

“Yay! Now all of the “Black Gold Wings” are rank E+!”

Aeris was pleased as she took Tauro’s hand.

“Oh, one more thing. Shin-kun and Rumeya-kun just reported completing the quest with the duo of Ren and Yu, so I promoted them to D-rank.”

“Eh?”

“You know the trouble they got into earlier today? The duo was rejected for a temporary team quest with the ‘Jet Black Sword’, so they cried out to Shin and Rumeya, so the four of them took on the quest and reported their completion just now. The two of them have a bit of a personality problem, but they are very capable. And when they work with Shin and Rumeya, they get good results.”

“Shin and Rumeya agreed to that?”

“They were reluctant at first, and thought they should wait for the both of you. But those two convinced them that they should move them up to the D-rank zone while they still can, because it’s not something you can move up to anytime soon.”

“Those two!”

Aeris quietly oozed anger.

“Aeris, those two girls are their girlfriends and they have their priorities, so stop being mad at them.”

“But!”

“Let’s respect Shin and Rumeya’s decision. The two of them have always had the goal of moving up to the D rank band, and that’s fine.”

Aeris still didn’t seem convinced, but it’s not a bad thing to put your girlfriends first.

Besides, we were the ones who were away the entire time.

They seem to have good chemistry with the duo, and this might be a good time to seriously think about Shin and Rumeya, and maybe even consider disbanding the team.

Shin and Rumeya are caught between themselves and the girls, and the current situation mustn’t be pleasant.

Those two are good guys, so it would be better to put out this option here.

Tauro decided not to tell Aeris about this idea yet.

If he told her now, it would make things awkward.

After quieting Aeris down, they left the guild and headed home.
