Chapter 105 – A Capable Man Juggles Work and Play

The next morning.

I decided to stop by the Adventurer’s Guild before heading out to sea where I had planned to go.

Why?

Just going to the beach is no different than going to play.

If you’re going to the sea, it would be efficient to take on related missions.

Hahaha.

Successful men are often able to balance work and play.

Oh, yeah. It’s true.

My level had risen dramatically since I defeated the Dragon Empress Kururu in my last adventure.

No wonder she was Division Commander of the Demon Lord’s Army.

The experience I gained from Kururu had raised my level all at once.

I haven’t raised my level in the last while, so it’s a happy harvest.

What kind of demons will we find on today’s expedition?

Now that I have more money and better stats, I’m going to enjoy my work as much as I can.

Chloe Grice

Race: Cait Sith

Age: 18

“Um… a quest to subjugate sea monsters. One moment, please.”

When I arrived at the guild, Chloe, the receptionist, was there to greet me as always.

Chloe, the receptionist, is a beautiful high-class girl with a small body and semi-long black hair.

The cat ears coming out of the top of her head are too dazzling.

“Oh, it’s a bit risky, but there were quests like this!”

☆Emergency Quest

●Defeat the giant squid

Required Grade: G

Condition of Success: Defeat a Kraken that appears on the coast of Salas

Reward: 15,000,000 col

Repetition: Not possible

Chloe pulled a request form from her file.

The required grade is G.

Same as before to defeat the cockatrice.

Apparently, the Emergency Quest is prepared to allow any adventurer to participate.

“…15 million col? Is this monster, the Kraken, really that strong?”

The most lucrative mission I’ve ever done was 3 million Col.

If you consider that even the B-Grade cockatrice was 3 million, the Kraken can be a strong S-Grade opponent.

“Certainly, the Kraken is a strong opponent. However, I believe its fighting ability itself is on par with the cockatrice Souta-san defeated earlier.”

“…So what’s this reward for?”

The established reward amount is five times the amount of the same combat ability.

There’s more to it than meets the eye.

“The adventurers who have headed out to defeat the Kraken on the Salas Coast have been hit by a typhoon from time to time, and it has been disastrous. I was told it was such that they could only think that someone was manipulating the weather. As a result, no one wanted to complete the quest anymore, so the amount of reward increased.”

“…I see.”

If you think about it, this quest to subjugate the Kraken could be very tasty.

Because it is, isn’t it?

I’ve seen a lot of magic since I came to this world, but the skill to manipulate the weather is impossible even with Carolina’s magic.

If my prediction is correct, it is only the result of widespread rumors, and people around me fear it.
