[Extermination…? Not just report about their hideout?]
[Yes. Totally 10 people. The leader was a large axe user.]
After hear that, receptionist was surprised and ponder on something.
[With that information… did they have a “Black Wolf”…?]
[Come to think of it, I saw a tamed wolf too.]
If I’m not mistake, that wolf was black. I didn’t notice the feature of that tamed monster. In the end, I just know only a name.
[It is without a mistake. I will contact guild master for a moment.]
She said something to nearby receptionist. I have a feeling it will be important, it is a small matter and I want to end it as soon as possible… Miss receptionist turns toward me again.
[Err. Are you an adventurer? Because I never see you around here before.]
[No, just a traveler. I don’t have any guild card. I’m just somewhat skilled…]
Guild card is the proof of adventurer who registered to the guild. There are some example about ranks too. It can be issued in any country but you still need to update once you go to another country.
[Really? Then, will you register? You can register and you will receive reward as soon the extermination is confirmed.]
[No, I’m certain I still receive half of reward without register.]
It is sound ungrateful but I want money after all. Is that bad!?
[Err, there isn’t a disadvantage for registration, and the compensation of extermination isn’t small either…]
[Sorry. But I promised with my friend to register with the guild in other country…]
[Is that so? It can’t be help since you have promised.]
The sign of the registered country will be carved on guild card. That would be a complicated situation, so let drop the subject. I didn’t tell a lie because I made a promise with Sakura who is behind me.
[Who defeated the “Black Wolf”?]
A stern old man came out. He might be around 40. He give me a feeling of veteran.
[Yes, guild master. This person here.]
[Hmm. You, prepare the reception room.]
Receptionist who called for guild master went inside the guild again. There is a reception room. I have a feeling this will turn out to be troublesome.
[My name is Joseph. The guild master of adventurer’s guild in this town. I want to hear the detail. Is it okay now?]
The Reception room was prepared… I have no right to veto. Well, that isn’t a problem.
[Yes, it is okay. Should I bring my companion too?]
[Umm, I don’t mind.]
Guild master and receptionist lead me to reception room inside the guild. It is a beautiful room. I never thought a room like this existed in a place where rowdy people are gathered. Oh, the main purpose is for clients…
[Well then, let’s get to the point, where is the “Black Wolf” hideout?]
Guild master said that while unrolls the map.
[In the nearby mountain. In a cave.]
His map is less accurate than my map, I can only point a rough position on that.
[Hmm, it was closer than expected. Can you explain the fighting detail or anything else?]
[Okay. I entered the mountain to harvest something while I’m traveling. I saw the wolf in front of the cave. When I defeat that wolf and enter the suspicious cave, I fought with thieves. I killed 10 people and came to this town for the report.]
Guild master is listening. It is okay. My story doesn’t have any contradiction. I didn’t lie too. But the harvest part = Treasure of those thieves.
