34 Episode 34: Field and Operation Rich

"I didn't know this threesome was a con..."

We caught a pair of scammers, and we explained to the villagers that they were malicious scammers and that it was where the village chief, who was a witness, was found out and tried to escape, would be endangered.

Tied up and rolling on the ground, the villagers stare at themselves in anger.

"" "Hino!

Though the bleeding was stopped, the threesome, who had injured their legs on top of the tie, was rattling and trembling without being able to escape.

How can I thank you for catching these men?

As such, the village chiefs will bow their heads to us.

"Never mind. I don't know what to say, but I fought him for revenge."

Yes, Mr. Liliera mocks herself, but I know she's worried about the village chief and everyone in the village getting fooled.

Never just for revenge.

"Besides, if you're thankful, tell him here. It's all because of this man who couldn't find him and follow him to the scene of the crime."

You got a spear coming this way?

"Oh, thank you for this! Thanks to you, we've helped!

"" "" Thank you!! ""

"Wow, I didn't really do much this time!

"No, no, because it's not normal to be at the end of your eyes and nose but not perceived by them. I mean, when I said that, I didn't do much either."

I find it strange that Mr. Liliera should be thanked for not doing much.

Oh, no, I have quite a taste of this.

Or this is what it's been like ever since I became an adventurer.

"Well, nevertheless, it is true that we were able to capture them thanks to Mr. Rex. I came this far because I met you. [M] I was able to settle all the causes. So, really...... thanks"

I come to Mr. Liliera with a deep bow of my head and a word of gratitude.

Hey, give me a break. Hey.

"Haha, never mind. Besides, Mr. Liliera's been working so hard. That effort finally paid off today. Congratulations."

I give my blessing to Liliera, who has been able to distinguish between the causes of her childhood.

"Oh, I don't know what you're talking about, but it sounds like you're congratulating me! Congratulations!

"" "" Congratulations!! ""

Is it a late-night tension, and everyone in the village blessed Mr. Liliera.

"Oh, look! Looks like the morning sun is blessing us!

and point to the morning sun when the village chief began to rise.

Oh, did it end up in the morning watching the trio?

"I'd also like to thank you for your help, and make sure you let me treat you to breakfast at my house!

And the village chief who was willing to treat us, pushed us to the village chief's house.

◆

"Nevertheless, it is good to have been able to capture the con man, but what are we going to do?"

After the meal, where he calmed down, the village chief said so and sighed.

"Uh, I'm sure the situation just went back to normal and hasn't been resolved."

After all, the situation hasn't gotten any better because we haven't exorcised demons.

"Nevertheless, there's no way you can imitate the same and serve someone's good intentions more than what happened to you last night... ha"

Well, it's just after you got scammed.

"I'd like to exorcise you, but in the end, that won't be a fundamental solution."

Mr. Liliera is right, there are more demons around the Wang capital than there are mass outbreaks. We have to work out the cause. The demons are coming again and we have to hire another adventurer.

Even Wang Capital will be exploring the cause of this demonic mass outbreak, and all of this is a problem to solve.

But until then, when this village will keep, hey, no, I have to say it's pretty dangerous.

"Hey, does Mr. Rex have any good ideas or anything?

Liliera raises her hands and surrenders and asks me if I have any ideas.

"Right....... then why not ask for demonic exorcism?

"Unless it's a request for demonic exorcism!? What do you mean?!?"

Neither Liliera nor the village chief can understand the reason for this, he will be decapitated.

"I mean, it doesn't matter how much money you have when you try to repel demons that target fields. But if we narrow it down, can we order a cheaper request?

"Exclusive? But you didn't get a request to get rid of only the weak demons, did you?

"Yes, you're right"

Mr. Liliera, who heard me, asks the village chief a question.

And the village chief replies that it was no good. Yeah, we were there, too.

"That's why we don't have to fight demons from the start."

"" What's going on?

Mr. Liliera and the village chief ask questions with their necks tied.

"I mean, you just have to do a way not to fight demons, to avoid demons!

"Avoid demons!? Do you have such a thing?!?"

"Oh well! Like you did to our village!

Mr. Liliera immediately noticed my intentions.

"Is that it? But isn't that a lot of money? Our village became a big business involving the country and the Adventurers Guild because it was a lodging town, right?

"Oh, wait! I don't have that kind of money in my village! Besides, this village is not the kind of place to be a lodging town."

Sure, modestly speaking, this village is remote.

"I know. So it'll be cheaper."

"Can you do that?"

"Yes, Mr. Liliera's hometown was a forest of warcraft surrounded by demons, so we decided to build a bond, but a normal village could make it cheaper."

"Oh! Fantastic! So, how?!?"

The village chief wants to know quickly.

Mr. Liliera is intrigued, too.

"The way to do this is to make potions out of certain herbs."

"" Potion?

"Yes, wormless, demon-sheltered potion."

I'll explain to both of you what a monster shelter potion looks like.

"The potion to avoid demons is like a incense that emits a smell that demons don't like. And demons come by because they smell the village livestock and crops. That's why I overwrite that delicious smell with the unpleasant smell of avoiding demons."

"I wouldn't even bother to get close if it smelled bad, rather than delicious!

"Oh, that's great! Once you know how to make that potion, the villagers will be able to make their own medicine!

Yes, the good thing about this method is that anyone can make a demon shelter with the ingredients.

Because it was so popular in previous generations that I made this demon shelter at home and let my kids have smell bags.

With this potion, a powerful demon is not possible, but it can be expected to work well enough with the strength of the demon there.

"Then I'll be collecting potion material, so the village chief will apply for a medication material collection at the Adventurer's Guild. And when that request is posted, Liliera says she'll take it."

"It also serves as an escort for the village chief."

That's right, Mr. Liliera, we're talking fast.

This is how we started our own work by acting differently.

"Cu!"

Huh? Do you usually go hunting for rice?

You can't go too far, can you?

◆

"Well, I wonder which demon shelter we'll make"

I stroll near the village and look for ingredients to avoid demons.

"Suitable for village soil, it's easy to cultivate and process potions... and when you have to, it's good for herbs that grow in places where it's easy to go directly to collect ingredients"

I decided to use the herb. I will collect the herbs that I can collect near the village.

"Gyu!"

"Kisha!"

Looking far away, Mohmov was hunting demons.

I eat meat all the time, but don't I have to eat vegetables or something?

"Mockingbird!"

If you look closely, Mohmov sees you eating purple grass on top of demonic meat.

Yeah, that's a good meal with proper nutrition balance in mind.

Does that mean Moffmoff is an omnivore?

"Well no. Because of this, we need Moffmoff to reduce the number of demons around the village."

I left the demons approaching the village to Moffmoff, and I'll resume herb collection.

"Gaowo!!"

Whoa, it's Shadowfox.

It's not a big deal, but when you grow up, it's a hassle, so let's knock it down.

"Hey!"

Crusade Shadowfox with a passing blow.

"Is that it..."

And when he saw the shadow fox that he had defeated, his mouth was covered with purple grass.

"This is magic grass."

Demons like and eat demonic grass. Also during this time, there was a disturbance caused by demonic grass.

"Does the fact that this guy was in a swarm nearby also mean? We need to burn it down when we find it."

Anyway, it looks like a forbidden product in this era.

In the meantime, let's burn the demon grass that had the shadow fox that we defeated.

◆

"Okay, I guess I'll be fine if I collect this much"

Having collected a sufficient number of herbs, I return to the village.

And the villagers asked me to plant most of this herb in the village fields.

Now I'm ready to mass-produce demon shelter pills in this village.

"Then I guess I'll dry the herbs and wait until the village chiefs get back..."

Having stopped doing so, I lecture the villagers on the tips of cultivating herbs while checking the dryness of the herbs.

"... I'm free"

Still, it takes time there until Mr. Liliera and the others return from the Wang capital on a round-trip basis.

I literally got out of hand when I stopped doing it.

"... hmm... hey, I was wondering if I could even help you with your field job?

If that's what you decide to do, just do it.

"Excuse me, can I help you?

I speak to a villager working in a nearby field. [M]

"Yes!? Mm, you can't put the village benefactor to work!

Haha, that's not a big deal, is it?

"I have nothing to do until the village chiefs get back. I was farming in my hometown, so let me help you."

"... If that's all you're saying, can you help me grass?

"Okay!

The villagers lend me farm tools like I said reluctantly.

You're good at grasshoppers!

"Even so, the weeds in this village are small. Is weaker magic better than usual?"

I choose the grasshopper magic to use with caution so as not to scratch the village crop.

"All right, let's do this! Chastender!"

I activate the magic of a small seed fire.

But it's not just the magic of seed fire.

"Burn only the little weed!

At my behest, the seed fire begins to burn down only the weeds in the field.

"Oh, oh!? What the hell!?"

The villagers raise their voices of surprise.

"It's the magic of baking only small weeds."

"Oh, you have such handy magic!?"

"Yeah, it's a very simple initial magic."

"Oh, oh, that's magical..."

Even while the villagers are surprised, the magic of seed fire burns down the weeds in the field.

"Leave the ashed weeds alone, they'll nourish the fields, so you can leave them there."

"Wow, I get it! No, not only did you take the weed in no time, but I really appreciate how well you get to the field! This place has been out of order for a long time!

"Really?

"Yes, the fields have been out of order for the past few years. Not only was it expensive to get rid of demons, but it was also difficult to earn even less because of poor fields."

"That's what happened."

Maybe that's one of the reasons why you can no longer pay for demonic exorcisms.

But it doesn't work. If that's true, then only weed ash would be very undernourished.

"Thank you for your help!

The grasshopper is over and appreciated by the villagers.

"That said, I could barely kill my time with this."

It wasn't long before it was over, so I got in a little trouble.

And from the conversation I had with the villagers earlier, I came up with another thing I wanted to do.

"Because of this, and even the potion that enlivens the vegetables in the field, make it."

Yeah, this also helps with farming, doesn't it?

Hey, hey.

Because you just sow the potion in the field.

I decided to leave the village to get herbs to make new medicines.

◆

"Nah, what the heck!!"

My name is Auser.

I'm the village chief of Honzio.

I came to Wang Du to get rid of the demons that afflict the village, but I couldn't get a job without getting paid enough.

On the contrary, the con man deceived me and took away my money without a trace.

The money that everyone in the village gathered with the thought of lighting a fire on their nails.

It was a real danger, but thanks to a pair of one young adventurer who said it was due to a con artist.

And that's not all. My benefactor, Lord Rex, told me that he would make a magic shelter potion.

As instructed by Lord Rex and asked to work in the Adventurer's Guild with a request to collect herbs, Nong returned to the village with another benefactor, Lord Liliera.

And when I came back to my beloved village, what I saw was a hell of a huge pile of crops.

No, really. What is this?

"Uh, did you do it?"

Apparently, he knows something. Lord Liliera puts her hand on his forehead.

"Hey, do you know anything!?"

"Uh, shouldn't I ask him in person?

Ahead, pointed out by Lord Liliera, on the corner of the field was the figure of Lord Rex carrying a huge vegetable with the young people of the village.

"Les, Lord Rex! What the hell is this?!?"

"Ah, Mr. Village Chief! Welcome home!

But Lord Rex welcomes us as if nothing had happened.

"Lord Rex, what the hell is this huge vegetable!?"

It was big from a distance, but even bigger from up close.

Are you sure this is a vegetable?

"No, when I used potions to increase crop yields, they got bigger than I expected."

"Po, potion!?"

"Yeah, I recently heard that the village crop was broken, so I sowed a potion in the field to nourish the land."

"That's not all, is it? Why are you already harvesting it?

Oh, yeah! Surely the crop was not yet harvest time!?

"Uh. To make sure the potion works correctly, we let it grow until it can be safely harvested with growth enhancing magic. Of course, the owner of the field has permission."

That being said, when Lord Rex shifts his gaze, the young people of the village are laughing bitterly.

"No, with a mon I was told I could rejuvenate the field and harvest it right away..."

"That's why you guys..."

Did you get all the fields to use that potion and magic...?

But this vegetable... I don't know what to say...

"So, can you eat this vegetable properly?

Lord Liliera put my doubts into words.

Ugh, um, you're absolutely right.

Is it really okay to eat such a hugely grown crop, albeit with the good intentions of the village benefactor?

Besides, it doesn't taste too great or the contents are scurvy?

"If that's the case, we can all tell you that it's okay to have a tasting."

"Oh really?!?"

When I look at the young people, they all get their thumbs up and smile.

"That's right! Or they did our field because it was delicious!

Apparently, they tried it in someone's field before they did their own.

I'm relieved to know that there was such a distinction.

Uh, no, I still don't feel safe.

"Because of this, why don't you two eat?

That's what I'm going to say, Lord Rex, I'm going to offer you a baked potato stung in the skewer and a slice of rice.

I grew up so big, I guess I couldn't cook without cutting it apart.

"To check the flavour of the crop, it is not seasoned."

Hmm, you want me to feel the taste as it is.

"So, then..."

I will never put this baked potato in my mouth.

"Ho, ho!

Hot potatoes rumble in my mouth and I'm about to burn them.

But for God's sake, what is this?

"Ugh, good! Yum! Yum!!"

No, there's no other word out there!

Delicious, delicious anyway.

I thought it was delicious and rusty, but that's not true at all.

I feel moist and dusty, like I'm savoring rich potato soup in my mouth.

It's amazing.

Lord Liliera, who was similarly tasting, gives a voice of surprise.

I know, I know, I know. I really get it.

No, not many words of deliciousness come up.

"Isn't that amazing, Mayor! This is the pile! And other vegetables!

I mean, are there any other delicious things like that?!?

Oh, this is, what can I say about this?

I could only think of one word to convey this sentiment.

"Yummy!!"
