23 They've been doing me a favor.

"I've been asked!

What seemed kind of strangely delightful, Sion uttered such a dialogue at the aperture most was the afternoon of the next day, when Lianya tried to return to the city from a two-day training of proficiency in a group of rocky mountains, devouring the intensive fire of Sion and Lona's criticisms against Lianya, who had vacated the city for two days without saying anything.

Apparently, he was worried that something might have happened to Lianya, who said he had only left with one lunch box but had no sign of returning at night.

It was nothing for Lianya to say that she would get used to her body outside for two days while pinching her temporary sleep while consuming a little of the food she took, but if you ask me, there is certainly nothing I can do about it if she only took one serving of food, once she thought she would come back within that day.

But it took about two days from the beginning, so I wanted to think that there was no reason to be criticized, but if Zion told me how we were worried about Lianya, I even decided to make a peaceful apology that the poor objection might turn out to be oiling the fire.

It was true that I was worried, and it seemed kind of fresh to ask someone to show me who I am, so the act of keeping my head down was just as painful.

Anyway.

Just in the middle of getting boiled water from the innkeeper, pouring it into a wide mouthed, lidded ceramic bin and waiting for it to cool down firmly, he was carving fruits that were very similar to the apples he had found and purchased at a nearby dew-store, to improve his surroundings, one by one, after all.

Keep the skin on, cut into bites, put it into hot water, where heat has fallen out and it has cooled down firmly, and close the lid.

It was just a task that I knew by knowledge, but if I didn't have a problem with it, if I left it like this for a few days, I would be able to build on what Lianya needed.

Lorna watches over what Lornaya is doing with interest beside her, but Lornaya doesn't explain what she's doing to her.

Even if I explained it, I thought it would be difficult for me to understand it.

"Uh, Lenya?

He asks the master of the inn to put him in an unobstructed part of the inn's kitchen in advance.

To Lianya, who tells her she wants it to stay that way for a few days, the innkeeper said something about just rotting, but Lianya had to laugh vaguely.

It must be difficult to explain to the inhabitants of this world the difference between corruption and fermentation, and the truth is that both corruption and fermentation refer to the same phenomenon, only fermenting what is beneficial to people and calling what is not, so Lianya herself will be in trouble if she is told what is different.

"Hey, Lenya..."

"I hear you. You've been doing me a favor, haven't you?

Lianya finally returned her words to Shion, a tone that kept her low on whether she felt bad for Lianya, who would never deal with her forever.

Just because I haven't heard back from you doesn't mean I haven't heard from you, so if you have something to do, I wish you'd keep talking.

"What kind of request have you been getting?

They found a new dungeon about a day by carriage through the South Gate.

As a distance, it's about 80 km away.

It was indescribable Lianya, whether it was close or far away, but I wonder why the dungeons that were there had never been discovered before.

Try hitting Scion with that question.

There are two types of what we call dungeons, one built as abandoned mines and buildings, which are not to be demolished after being abandoned, and where demons have settled for some reason.

The other is said to be a biotype dungeon, an object called a dungeon core that has occurred somewhere that alters the surrounding environment, builds demons, builds treasures, butchers the adventurers who have come for it, absorbs magic, and grows even more.

There are a lot of mysterious parts about generating dungeon cores and how this core is producing demons, and so on, and they haven't gone so far with the research.

"This time, we found a biotype over here, asking for a crusade."

"Not to mention new, attack the dungeon with one party?

"No, Raid at Some Parties"

When I say Reid, I mean a bunch of people who make it at some parties.

Theon says it is something that will be well organized when the Alliance issues requests that would not be achievable in one party.

It's like a game, Lianya thinks, but reality isn't like being optimistic.

Biotype dungeons, even if left alone, suck up magic from their surroundings and grow on their own, creating a number of powerful demons the larger they become.

And any time a flood of created demons occurs, causing enormous damage to the surrounding area, so if a new biotype dungeon is discovered, the number of people is to be gathered to attack and destroy the dungeon core as soon as possible.

"How many parties did you attend?

"Mix us up. It's four. Nineteen in all."

There are three Lotus Mita parties, so there are sixteen left.

It would be calculated to be around five people per party, but since regular parties are organized for four to six people, it can be said that they are average in terms of number of people.

However, there was nothing to be an example of if you think about how that would be militarily, and it was a point where you couldn't make a decision, so Lianya looks at Lorna like she wants an opinion, but Lorna shook her neck left or right.

"New dungeons don't have a lot of information, so it's normal not to know if the number of attackers is reasonable."

"From what I hear, I don't think it's a very good job?

"If it occurs and the sun is shallow, it won't be on that scale, so it's normal to have low difficulty, and because it's untouched, you can expect materials and treasures to some extent, so making money is a good job, hey"

"Lenya, why do you ask Lorna for her opinion, not me...?

I can't honestly answer to a terribly dissatisfied Scion because Lorna definitely seems to have more experience and knowledge, Lianya thinks.

I don't know how it got to partying, but Lorna doesn't try to break her posture as some pompous monk apprentice in front of Scion.

I don't know why, but as long as Lorna keeps trying to maintain that attitude, there's no way Lotus Ya is going to say something bad and expose it.

- Roaring low, Lianya managed to twist out the reason and mouth it this way to Shion, who was staring straight at her.

"When it comes to knowledge experience, both Theon and Lorna would be sneaky, wouldn't they? Then maybe Lorna's opinion of serving God would be more beneficial."

Given the character of the administrator I hear from the young girl, Lianya was hopeless because she thought that she would not have worked as badly as she would have benefited every monk by saying that she was serving herself, but Lianya praises herself there for the reason she was forced to twist it out.

"Mm..., somehow, I'd feel that way if you said so"

"The leader is Theon, isn't he? Don't worry, I'll take care of the final decision, and I'll definitely follow it."

"" Huh?

When Lianya said it out clearly, she was returned a question mark with a somewhat haunted voice.

If you both look at something that unexpected, you're both looking at Lianya with a face that looks like it's time to put a question mark over your head.

"Did I say something strange?

"I just think that Lenya is the one who leads..."

"Yep. That's what I thought."

"Why does that happen?

He looks very nasty, and Lianya exhales.

Somehow, but I had a feeling that they would say such a thing, so I had prepared a reply in advance.

Lianya did not have the hobby to happily assume the role of being responsible for people other than herself as leaders, etc.

"At least you know how bad it would be if you put a stray man on the leader with little knowledge of this world?

He was Lianya, who meant to say something extremely obvious, but he couldn't seem to get an understanding between the two of them.

"I still think men say leaders are less of a problem externally,"

"I agree. And Lenya would make more accurate decisions than I do."

There was something I wanted to say about where the basis for that credibility came from, or, if so, why Theon had been asked, but in front of the two glances who would whisper the signs that you would take it, you wouldn't say no, it would also be foggy.

Lotus Yaya nodded as she dropped her shoulders and exhaled, feeling like she had said shaved.

"Okay.... Theon, talk to me a word when you get the request. But if I'm gonna be the leader,"

"Mm, so is that. I'm sorry I was brave."

Lianya waves to Shion, who honestly bows her head, because it's good.

"So, what's the reward and detention period?

"Six gold coins per party required. Expenses included. The detention lasts two days on the move and a total of four days on the dungeon exploration. It's a crusade request, so crusade the demons inside as much as possible. If we can destroy the dungeon core, they say it's ten gold coins for an extra reward.

"Is the move a carriage? Or on foot?"

"A carriage. The guild will prepare it for you. We're leaving tomorrow morning, but before we do, there's a face-to-face reunion between the parties. This evening, a tavern called" Silver Cup Pavilion "near the Alliance"

What do you say! All I'm saying is, Zion, but Lianya had an inner head.

There is no time until the meeting time, but there is too little time for departure.

When I think about the time that will be taken face-to-face, I have little time to spend preparing.

I guess the request itself had been posted to the guild since before there.

It seems to me that Zion found it after the deadline and rushed in to take the request, but the idea is too sweet.

Looking beside her, Lorna seemed to have the same opinion and looked sinister.

"Theon...... let's think about things before you get a request from the next one, shall we?

"Huh? Huh?

Theon doesn't seem to understand why the two of them look sinister.

Still, it seems understandable to say that I've done something unsavory, and I get a very rushed look as I look at the two faces alternately.

I thought I'd be firmly angry once, but I'll look at Theon's face and stop him.

I don't know about the people in this world, Lotus Ya, but generally praised is something that stretches a lot later than pissed off.

If you have learned to fail, you should turn to following rather than blame.

Never, I told myself that it wasn't because of the panicking Scion that I was drained of poison, but when I looked at Lorna, I was slapped on the shoulder with a bump just to know.

"I can't help but take it... Lorna, can you hurry up and go shopping?

"Yeah, I can't help it. Is it about four days of food and water, rope and pine, wound pills and bandages?

"What about the bedding? Even with your share, I don't have it..."

"I'll buy it. If you notice anything else, you will buy it."

"I asked. Let's split the expenses later. Will you replace it?"

A token to Lianya, Lorna leaves the inn early enough.

After I dropped it off, when I looked at Zion, I finally realized it depended on what was going on. Zion seemed sorry to shrink.

"Getting ready... I had to..."

"Next, you just have to be careful. Still, it's not the first time you've received a request, and you didn't notice that?

Carefully Lianya asked, lest it should be in a blameworthy tone, and Theon answered with a blush of shame.

"Because Lorna was always doing it for me when I realized..."

When I first met the two of them, Lianya took a deep sigh into the state of her eye pit, wondering if Zion was in a more protective position.

"Well... thank you. Let's just say we join that face-to-face. Doesn't mean we all have to be there, does it?

"Probably..."

Don't be confident, Scion.

Lianya decided to be ready to apologize if anything happened to her.

"Let's go with that silver cup pavilion for now. If you say anything, you can handle it."

I wish it would just be over face-to-face, but Lianya thought it was in her chest, but somehow it was, but I also had a feeling it wouldn't end the way I thought it would.

And when it came to that bad feeling, it was Lotus Yakiya who knew very well that it was a promise that probably never came off.
