Chapter 660
Bear-san goes to the Adventurers’ Guild
Sanya-san had more work to do, so she returned after speaking with us.
“Well, we should go home, too.” (Yuna)
We had no reason to stay here, so Ellelaura-san took us back to the bear house in a horse-drawn carriage.
The carriage rocked and swayed as it went along.
Fina, Tirumina-san, and Shuri were sitting on a three-person seat, and I, Ellelaura-san, and Shia were sitting on the seat across from them.
It was then that Ellelaura-san spoke to us.
“We talked about Fina-chan’s party yesterday, but I was wondering if we could hold it tomorrow.” (Ellelaura)
“Tomorrow?” (Fina)
Fina was also a little surprised.
We hadn’t set a specific date, but it was out of the blue.
“Fina-chan and the others are going back to Crimonia, right?” (Ellelaura)
The dismantling event was over, so we would be leaving.
“Yes, we are. My husband is waiting for me, and I don’t want to be home too late.” (Tirumina)
Tirumina-san muttered to herself at Ellelaura-san’s words.
It would be pitiful to leave Gentz-san alone for so long. .𝒎
“Hmmm, so let’s do it tomorrow. I’ll take care of the preparations. I’ll pick you up at Yuna’s place around evening, so make sure you’re hungry.” (Ellelaura)
I had no reason to refuse, and Fina had agreed to a farewell party, not a celebration, so she did not refuse.
It was decided that tomorrow night would be an excellent time to have a farewell party for Fina.
And as we were talking about today’s events, the carriage stopped in front of my bear house.
“Ellelaura-san, thank you.” (Tirumina)
“It’s alright, I’ll see you tomorrow.” (Ellelaura)
The carriage with Ellelaura-san and Shia left, and we went inside the bear house.
Tirumina-san cooked another meal, and I spent the rest of the evening relaxing.
The next day, we went to the Adventurers’ Guild to get money for Fina’s request and the monsters she had dismantled at the event.
The Adventurers’ Guild was crowded as usual, and Tirumina-san was walking around holding Shuri’s hand to keep her close as we walked.
At first, I had planned to go to the guild with just Fina, but Tirumina-san, as her guardian, asked me if she could join us. Fina also wanted her to join. So, Tirumina-san and Shuri also came along with us.
We went to the reception desk, where there were several vacant booths.
When we arrived at the reception desk, the receptionist looked at us in surprise.
And it was not me this time that surprised the receptionist but Fina.
“Oh, Fina-chan?” (Eliza)
“Umm, Eliza-san!” (Fina)
Fina said the receptionist’s name, and then I remembered.
It was Eliza-san, who participated in the dismantling event and made it to the finals. I heard she was working as a receptionist at the Adventurers’ Guild and doing dismantling work, but I didn’t expect to see her so soon.
“It’s been two days. Is this about the reward from the dismantling event the other day?” (Eliza)
“Yes, Sanya-san asked us to visit.” (Fina)
“Actually, I’m the one who is assigned to give you the reward for the dismantling of the monsters at the event, Fina-chan and ….. umm, Yuna-san, right?” (Eliza)
Eliza-san asked, looking at me as if to confirm.
“Yes, that’s right…” (Yuna)
“The Guild Master asked me to show you to her office when the two of you arrive.” (Eliza)
“Why?” (Yuna) 𝘪𝑎.
“She didn’t give me any details, but she said she wanted to present you the reward herself.” (Eliza)
Eliza-san stood up and led us to the guild master’s room.
“But I never thought Fina-chan was acquainted with Yuna-san.” (Eliza)
Eliza-san, walking a little ahead of us, spoke.
“Do you know me?” (Yuna)
“I think all the receptionists who work at this guild know you. The Guild Master had instructed me that if a girl dressed as a bear comes in, I should treat her respectfully, which made me familiar with your outfit and your name.” (Eliza)
Then she looked at my outfit.
“And I have also seen Yuna-san before.” (Eliza)
Eliza-san was a receptionist. I had also been to the Adventurers’ Guild a few times, so it was not surprising that she may have seen me during one of my visits to the guild.
“So you saw Fina then, too?” (Yuna)
“I’m sorry. I can only remember that you were with a little girl, but Yuna-san’s outfit was so striking that it made me forget all about Fina-chan.” (Eliza)
It was similar to a situation where you meet a Flashy Character and another person with them. You would remember the Flashy Character, but not the person tagged along with them.
“I had seen the two of you together in the event though.” (Eliza)
Well, Fina was returning to us after every single match. No wonder Eliza-san, who was at the same event, had seen us together.
As we discussed this, we arrived in front of the Guild Master’s room.
Eliza-san knocked on the door and told Sanya that she had brought us. Immediately, a reply came back from inside the room.
“Let them in.” (Sanya)
We entered the room.
Sanya-san was working at the far end of the room, sitting in a chair by the window.
Eliza-san bowed her head and went back to her work.
Fina looked like she wanted to talk more to Eliza-san, but Eliza-san was currently at work, so there was no choice.
“I’ve been waiting for you. Please sit down.” (Sanya)
There was a small table and chairs in the room. We sat down on one of the chairs.
“Fina-chan, thank you again. I really appreciate your help this time.” (Sanya)
“No, I mean, I’m glad I could be a part of it. I learned a lot.” (Fina)
“Well, I’m glad to hear you say that.” (Sanya)
Fina looked a little embarrassed when she was thanked.
Sanya-san stood up and came over to Fina with a small cloth bag.
“The fee for this commission and the money for the monster that Fina-chan dismantled.” (Sanya)
“Thank you.” (Fina)
Fina accepted the small cloth bag with a happy face.
“Check inside, and if everything is okay, please sign your name here.” (Sanya)
Sanya-san placed a piece of paper in front of Fina.
“Yes.” (Fina)
Fina responded and opened the cloth bag. She looked surprised.
“This much?” (Fina)
Seeing Fina’s surprised expression, Tirumina-san, standing next to her, looked into the cloth bag as if to confirm.
“That’s really a lot!” (Tirumina)
“Fina-chan helped make this event so much fun, so I added a little more. Also, Fina-chan’s dismantled monsters were clean, so I was able to get a higher price for them.” (Sanya)
The messier the dismantling, the lower the selling price. It was evident that a clean wolf pelt would fetch a higher price than a battered wolf pelt.
“But so much.” (Fina)
“It’s a fair price, Fina-chan has done her job well. So take it.” (Sanya)
Fina looked at her mother, Tirumina-san, who gave a small nod and said, “Take it.” Fina nodded in response.
“Thank you.” (Fina)
Fina thanked Sanya-san, checked the amount, seemed okay with it, and signed the paper.
“And now for Yuna-chan.” (Sanya)
“As I said yesterday, I’m not in a hurry, so it’s okay.” (Yuna)
“Don’t worry. I’ve already prepared something for you.” (Sanya)
“Already? So fast?” (Yuna)
“Yes, let’s go to the storage room first. And I’m sorry, but Tirumina-san and the others will have to wait here. I’ll have someone bring you some tea and snacks.” (Sanya)
As Sanya-san touched the magic stone on her desk, there was a knock at the door of the room, and a guild official entered.
“Please bring tea and snacks for guests.” (Sanya)
“Yes.” (Staff)
The guild official replied and left the room.
“Well, we’d better go.” (Sanya)
Leaving Fina and the others behind, Sanya-san and I went to the underground warehouse where I handed over the monsters the last time. Sanya-san then went in front of a sturdy-looking door in the underground warehouse and used a key to open it.
“Yuna-chan, wait for me there. This is a room that only authorized people can enter.” (Sanya)
Saying this, she entered the room. Just as Sanya-san entered the room, I saw a door that looked like a large safe.
I wondered if they kept important things in there.
After about a minute or two, Sanya-san came out of the door.
“Here you go.” (Sanya)
In her hand was an item bag.
“First, please check the dismantled parts of the monsters I promised you.” (Sanya)
After receiving the item bag, I pulled out the contents, which were materials from the giant Scorpion and the two Cockatrice.
According to Sanya-san, they were all valuable.
I recall that in the past, Jade and the other adventurers were thrilled when they received the scorpion’s shell before as payment. And, as for the materials from the cockatrice, I would think of something to use them on in the future.
“And here are both magic stones.” (Sanya)
The giant Scorpion’s magic stone was colorless and transparent, while the cockatrice’s magic stone was greenish-colored.
The giant Scorpion’s magic stone was larger, and the cockatrice’s magic stone was smaller.
I checked the stones and put them in my bear box.
“And the money, it’s a lot of money, so be careful.” (Sanya)
She laid out the gold coins on a nearby desk and handed me a piece of paper with the transaction value of the material.
I trusted Sanya-san, since I clearly had no idea what the market price was, and after confirming that the amount on the document was the same as the amount she handed to me, I signed the documents and put the gold coins away in my bear box.
“But I’m surprised you were able to prepare this so soon.” (Yuna)
“We were able to sell some of the monster parts in bulk and got a batch payment for it. The rest came from the Adventurers’ Guild and the Commercial Guild’s reserve fund.” (Sanya)
For my part, I was glad I didn’t have to come back several times to get the payment.
“So, I’m sorry Yuna-chan, but I’d like you to meet the person who purchased the materials.” (Sanya)
“Oh, why? If possible, I don’t want to go through the hassle.” (Yuna)
I was even willing to wait for the payment later if that was the case.
“I understand how you feel, but I couldn’t say no since the buyer is His Majesty the King.” (Sanya)
“Oh, it was His Majesty the King?” (Yuna)
“His Majesty the King knew about the Scorpion, right?” (Sanya)
“Yes, I showed it to him, so he knew.” (Yuna)
I showed Scorpion to the King when I reported to him after I finished the request in the desert.
“So, His Majesty the King knew about this…” (Sanya)
Sanya murmured, but why did he want to see me?
Ugh, what a hassle.
But if I didn’t go, there would be problems in the future.
I might still be able to meet with Lady Flora and Tilia if I reject meeting the King this time.
But the King would no doubt meet me at times when I visit those two.
I let out a sigh.
“All right. I’ll go see him.” (Yuna)
“Thank you, Yuna-chan.” (Sanya)
Sanya-san looked relieved.
Well, it shouldn’t be anything to be upset about, so suppose it was okay.
