Chapter 3-Duna's womanizer and brawler

 

(TL:By Rafael)

 

 

 

 

"Welcome to the Duna Adventurer's Guild."(Receptionist)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I showed my request form to the receptionist and waited for a few minutes.

 

 

 

 After a few minutes of waiting, an elderly, skinny woman with a very sharp eye appeared.

 

 

 

"I'm Manuela, the guild master. It's a pleasure to meet you."(Manuela)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Even in her old age, she was still hale and hearty.

 

 

 

 This person must be strong.

 

 

 

 I can feel the same level of pressure as Benwood and Mamaru.

 

 

 

 She seems like a perosn who should not be defied too much.

 

 

 

"I am Yuki Ferdio, leader of the C-ranked party Clover. This is the sub-leader, Silk Umberwood."(Yuki)

 

"I'm Silk Amberwood. It's a pleasure to meet you."(Silk)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Silk and I bowed deeply to the Guildmaster.

 

 

 

 While we were meeting with the guild master, Marina and the others decided to wait in the tavern.

 

 

 

 Listening in at the bar is a surprisingly effective way to gather information.

 

 

 

 Nene, in particular, has a good ear, and I'm sure she'll be able to pick up on the atmosphere and gossip of the town while we wait.

 

 

 

"I don't mind a well-mannered girl, so let's get down to business. Come with me."(Manuel

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Without changing her expression, Manuela strode toward the back stairs.

 

 

 

 She seems to be quite impatient.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 But she can't help but feel that way.

 

 

 

 Suddenly, a new labyrinthine dungeon has appeared in her area.

 

 

 

 She has to apply to the government and survey the surrounding area, and adventurers are coming to town one after another after hearing the rumors.

 

 

 

 So, it was only natural that she would want to finish the government-appointed mission of investigation as soon as possible, and either open the dungeon to the public or seal it.

 

 

 

"Do you have the outline of this matter?"(Manuela)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 In the reception room, Manuela spread out the documents on her desk.

 

 

 

 It was the same one we had seen at Benwood's place.

 

 

 

"Benwood-san gave us the rundown."(Yuki)

 

"I would like to thank him  for him diligence. I'm going to tell you the criteria for the survey now that you've been informed by the government. The goal is to usually break through to the fifth level. You can also check if there are any floor bosses. The live feed will be unrestricted. I, Benwood, and the guys from the Royal Academy of Sciences will check it out and estimate the danger level and size of the labyrinth."(Manuela)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 After saying this in one breath, Manuela stops speaking for a moment.

 

 

 

 Her gaze fell on Silk's fingertips as Silk took notes.

 

 

 

 At first glance, she seemed tight, but she was a very caring person.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Seeing that Silk's hand had stopped, I asked a question.

 

 

 

"What about mapping?"(Yuki)

 

"No need. Some people make a living out of it, I suppose."(Manuela)

 


 

 

 

"What about scavenging and demon monster materials?"(Yuki)

 

"Basically, it's all yours. You can basically take all of it. Just check what you bring back and make a list. You never know when something might be dangerous."(Manuela)

 

(TL:This guildmaster is ok )

 

 

 

 

 

 The fact that she was able to respond to my question so quickly showed thats he was quite good at her job.

 

 

 

 That's a big difference from Benwood.

 

 

 

"Here. Don't be too hard on the old man."(Manuela)

 

"......!"(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 She had noticed.

 

 

 

 That's funny, I've never been noticed before.

 

 

 

"It comes from  "old age". Well, it's right to be wary of people you've never met before, especially if you're accompanied by a bunch of pretty girls like her......."(Manuela)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 For the first time, Manuela gave a small smile.

 

 

 

"I'm sorry. I apologize for my rudeness."(Yuki)

 

"No problem. We'll be business partners for a while. Let's get along."(Manuela)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Manuela smiled as she shook my hand.

 

 

 

 Manuela has  been testing me, too, .......

 

 

 

 I hope I was a good match for her.

 

 

 

"So, when are you going to start?"(Manuela)

 

"Well, ......, we'll use tomorrow and the next day to rest and prepare, and then we'll go in three days later."(Yuki)

 

"That's a good decision, not too fast and not too slow. , as expected from Benwood's favorite."(Manuela)

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 Manuela raises the corner of her mouth in a grin.

 

 

 

"Do you know Benwood?"(Yuki)

 

"What, you don't know me?I'm a former member of his party. I was the first to enter the depths of the Colorless Darkness, after all."(Manuela)

 

"You too, ......!"(Yuki)

 

"Yeah, that means I'm your uncle's buddy, Yuki"(Manuela)

 

 

(TL: From the looks of it his uncle will have a volume of it's own)

 

 

 

 

 You knew who I was all along?

 

 

 

 I feel like I've been duped.

 

 

 

"Let's see what you can do, shall we?"(Manuela)

 

"Please go easy on me."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I gave her a wry smile and bowed deeply.

 

 

 

 If you are one of my uncle's friends, you should be treated with respect.

 

 

 

 Except for ...... Benwood.

 

(TL:Poor Benwood)

 

"Oh, yes. I almost forgot."(Manuela)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 As I get up from the couch, Manuela throws me something.

 

 

 

" ...... map?"(Yuki)

 

 

 

"I thought it would be a shame to make a party that came on a court-appointed mission look for a place to stay, so the guild has prepared an inn for you to use as a base. Go to the location on the map."(Manuela)

 

"Thank you."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Silk and I bowed again and left the reception room.

 

 

 

 After closing the door, I looked to my side and saw Silk exhaling heavily.

 

 

 

"Nervous?"(Silk)

 

"Yes, very much. I was very nervous. ...... You're the best at communicating calmly like that."(Silk)

 

"No, I was nervous too."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 No lie, no joke, I meant it.

 

 

 

 I can't help but shy away from the presence of this old lady Manuela.

 

 

 

"But I didn't know she was going to arrange the accommodation for us. ......"(Silk)

 

"We should be grateful for your kindness this time."(Yuki)

 

"Yes. We don't know the town, so it will be a great help."(Silk)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Well, if you need to find one, that's my job as a supporter.

 

 

 

 It's not Silk's business.

 

 

 

"I hope they're not getting tired of waiting for us. ......"(Yuki)

 

"The carriage ride was a bit long, so they  might be tired."(Silk)

 

"Tomorrow and the day after, we'll have to work off the fatigue."(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 We walked down the stairs, talking together.

 

 

 

 Every time we take a step down the stairs, the noise gets louder and louder, and it made me think: "All adventurer's guilds are the same." ...... The noise is too loud, isn't it?

 

 

 

"Hmm?"(Yuki)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 It was easy to notice that it was not a bustle but a brawl.

 

 

 

 However, I didn't expect to find ...... Marina and her friends at the center of it.
