One Hundred Years Adventurer 2 [Rainbow Sword]

*Bam!*nove(l)bi(n.)com

Gelf-chan, Im home-!

Oh myy, Samantha-chan. You havent grown at all like usual.

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING PIPSQUEAAAKKKKK!?

Samantha entered after kicking open the shops door and displayed a well arranged conversation with the shop owner Gelf.

It had been several years since Samantha and the other two left their rural village and became adventurer.

Then why did they end up [home]? The reason was because the three of them were adventurer at the capital, but the area around the capital had the knights and soldiers to solve any simple incident, so there was no work for rookie to do there.

In the first place the adventurer guild there was a place for adventurers from all over the places who had confidence in their skill to gather. People with good reputation received request from noble or merchant, while those without any good reputation headed toward the large scale dungeon at the south of the capital.

There were some errands that rookies could do, which could give them some small change. This kind of job was intended for student of the sorcery academy. When Samantha and co were unable to keep doing such job, then would head to the beginning floors of the dungeon to hunt the monsters there.

We have become rank 3! We can also take job in the capital now-

My, congratulations! We have to celebrate then.

We are also adults now, so we need to make our equipments look mature too!

I guess

Samantha and the other two had become 15 years old, an age that considered as grownup among human race. Buteven though those with a lot of mana should grow quicker than those who werent, Samantha only looked like a twelve years old girl no matter how other looked at her.

Human with a lot of mana normally would grow to look like around twenty years old if they were male and around seventeen years old if they were female until their actual age caught up, and from there the growth would switch to become a slowing down of their aging.

It wasnt like Samanthas mana was lacking. Her mana value wouldnt be inferior even when compared to a royal court sorcerer.

And yet why was she staying tiny like this?

In Samanthas case there was also her unbalanced diet but, Gelf hypothesized that because her mana value was already high ever since she was a child, perhaps the growth switching period also came far earlier for her. Gelf looked at the pipsqueak Samantha with pity in his eyes.

Also the clothes that Gelf created for Samantha and Miranda had childish design too this time.

Dalton and Mira-chan arent together with you?

Dalton is at the guild-! As for MiraMira-?

Uu~~~

Looking carefully, there was Miranda looking this way from behind the entrance. She was groaning cautiously like a cat that got found out sneaking in.

Mira-chan, dont be scared and come in.

Youre scary no matter how I look at you!

Gelf was a craftsman who created cute equipments for female. He was a splendid male rock dwarf.

Even though several years had passed since Miranda first ran into him, she still wasnt used to Gelf who was wearing high heels made from golden thread and dress that displayed his bushy chest hair. Or rather, Dalton who got winked at every time he came here also wouldnt come here and made up an excuse every time to avoid coming, so in reality Samantha was the only one who was used to Gelf.

Miranda who was a forest elf had slow growth. Her appearance was like a twelve years old child just like Samantha.

Gelf had been having expectation at Miranda ever since Samantha introduced her to him that one day she would grow to have a model body style that was expected from an elf.

But in reality Samantha was still a pipsqueak even after she became of age, while Mirandas growth was slow which was something that couldnt be helped, but he got the feeling that she was gradually turning plumper every time she came here.

Gelf had a bad premonition so he wanted to take charge of Mirandas health management, but Miranda was scared of Gelf, perhaps because of the racial relationship between elf and dwarf that was a bit not good.

Putting that asideMira-chan, what is that cord?

Miranda who was still acting like a menacing cat toward Gelf was holding something like a leather cord. It was extending until outside the entrance that was still left wide open.

When that was pointed out, Miranda forgot even her fear and puffed out her (non-existent) chest with the unique arrogance(country bumpkin aura) of elf that lived in the forest in full display.

You have sharp eyes for a rock dwarf! If you really insist that much then this me shallouchhh!?

Samantha pinched Mirandas side with all her strength while she was in the middle of talking. She then snatched the cord from the hand of Miranda while she was shrieking and writhing in pain. Then she puffed out her (mostly non-existent) chest in Mirandas place.

Gelf-chan, you noticed at great timing! Astonishingly we made a comrade-!

Is that so-!?

Gelfs eyes opened wide in surprise when he heard Samanthas words.

She had formed an adventurer party, and they also went to the capital partly in order to search for comrade. Such story wasnt anything really strange or anything, yet Gelf was acting so surprised because of a reason.

The three searched for adventurer to become their comrade normally when they first came to the capital. But it was pointless to accept beginner into their party because they couldnt keep up with the three, while adventurer with some strength felt hesitation to join seeing Miranda and Samantha who had childish look like this.

Anyone who approached them despite those concerns was only dangerous people who were targeting the two beautiful girls despite their childish look. Those people were problematic even before considering whether they could become their comrade or not.

Like that they kept gradually putting off searching for new comrade and continued adventuring with just the three of them, but they finally found a comrade in a city with dungeon.

The one who said that before offering his hand was a handsome boy with black hair and blue eyes.

It seemed that he was born from a good family and had courteous behavior. Why was this kind of person picked an improper job like becoming an adventurer?

Im going to graduate from the sorcery academy next year, but I dont want to become a knight like my brothers. I want to do a job where I can be closer to the populace!

Oo

His existence was dazzling. If he was a student of the sorcery academy then he should be a noble, furthermore if he could also use sorcery then he should have the strength of rank 2.

But, a noble becoming an adventurer smell like trouble, and some normal adventurers would even feel like they got a burden foisted on their hands to accept such person. However

My best regards! Rook, I welcome you to our party!

Dolton didnt ask for any details and shook Rooks hand firmly.

Noble? One who was ignorant of the ways of the world? That didnt matter. Rook didnt seem like someone who held prejudice toward demihuman, his personality was decent, and his presence would serve to prevent the society from looking at Dolton with suspicion, furthermore his look also seemed like Samanthas type and would divert her attention away from Dolton. With all those, Dolton didnt care of anything else.

Ah, yes. My best re

Dolton!

The moment Rook was going to give an affirmative reply while looking a bit creeped out, a girls voice reverberated through the adventurer guild.

Geh, Samantha.

Listen, listen, Dolton! That Francois Josephine is really amazing!

Whos that!?

Hey, Fran, come!

Woof

That bark certainly belonged to the beastman street urchin who Samantha picked up, but their appearance had changed completely.

The fluffy hair that had been left to grow uncontrollably now became a bobcut with milk tea color. The large ears that were dangling on both sides of the head also got put to the forefront with a lovely look. The kids eyes were still hidden by the hair bang but the face that was exposed looked well-proportioned. The kid was wearing a newly purchased loose shirt and a miniskirt. The healthy legs covered with tights that extended down from there really drew attention.

This Fran who had transformed into a beautiful beastgirl who looked around twelve years old was the result of Gelfs full efforts.

So shes really a female!

Its fine! We had also bought short bloomers from Gelf-chans shop!

I dont care about that!

Ah, we also asked Gelf-chan to create new equipments for us while we were there.

I didnt ask! Listen to what Im saying!

Not only they bought new clothes for Fran, Samantha also purchased a robe that wholly exposed her upper arms and legs now. As for Miranda

Uu~~~~~~~~!

She now looked like a flower fairy with the outfit that used a lot of white and pink clothes in it. She was hiding behind Fran in embarrassment.

Whats with that attire

Its fine, its free after all!

Uwaaaahn!

Gelf provided equipments free of charge for the two of them in exchange of them being his model, so Miranda whose pocket money ran out for snacks couldnt possibly refuse

Woof

Miranda had her hair petted by Fran while munching on the sweet that was given to her. The middle-aged adventurers around them were looking at that scene with warm gaze.

I myself managed to find a swordsman to join our party! Aint that right, Rook!

Hee!

Dolton slapped Rooks shoulder and Samantha stared at him with a burning gaze. It made Rook who was in a daze to jerk in surprise and took a step back.

N-no, I suddenly remember that I have an urgent business

But Doltons hold on Rooks shoulder was firm and he was unable to escape. Then Samantha dragged him into the rest area at the back of the guild so they could be alone. One hour later

hics hics

Rook also decides to join us happily!

With Samanthas persuasion, the red faced Rook whose clothes seemed disheveled after their talk officially became a comrade of Dolton and co.

Also it was the moment when Samantha caught her first future husband.

.

Like this the one hundred years adventure of comrades with various colors of personality like rainbowthe adventurers [Rainbow Sword] began.
