Please be patient while I’m uploading all of them. Posting 10 chapters takes time (´・ω・`)

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

After putting out a subjugation request for the giant snake at the adventurers’ guild, I went back to my house to get my bathtub and filled the tub with water in town. Since I couldn’t get the water from the river for the time being. 

That giant snake. That snake would surely cause a lot of damage if it were to come to town. My house would be in danger too. I needed to think about some more extra precautions…

I decided to reinforce my shovel with precious iron. I went to my blacksmith workshop and lit up the fire at the furnace. 

CLANK CLANK CLANK SHHH SHHH SHHH SHHH

I strengthened the part used to shove the soil and sharpened the edge with whetstone. 

THUNK

When I tried to use it to dig up the ground, I felt like it was a lot easier for me to dig with it now that I had reinforced it.

I dug a hole around the perimeter of my house. I piled up the excavated soil toward the side of my house and hardened the soil with my shovel to make some sort of mud wall. Having a mud wall was better than having nothing. 

I also carefully made a slope from the outer part toward the wall side as best as I could to create a difference in elevation between the wall and the outer part. 

◇◇◇

In the end, my paranoid fear against the giant snake ended just like that. Apparently a party of skilled adventurers had defeated the giant snake. With this, I could finally start drawing water from the river again.

This was a prime example of the correct way for a common civilian to utilize the adventurers’ guild.

Become a famous adventurer by defeating a strong opponent? Nay, nay. In reality, that kind of thing is simply impossible for us common folks. 

At most, the best thing I could do now was to request a subjugation from the adventurers’ guild. 

If things like cockatrice and hellhounds were to come swarming to my house, I’d be in trouble… Or to be precise, it was very likely that I’d die. And so, I decided to deposit 10 gold coins to Dan at the adventurers’ guild for them to use as a reward for subjugating the monster at the forest. 

I got an additional 1 gold coin as a reward for each defeated monster.
