Chapter 121: Killing the guild master hope
(edited by BigYoshi)
Inside the Comer city Adventurer’s Guild, Mofisu is sitting at the guild master room and sorting through the documents that is piled up on top of the desk like a mountain while grinning.
“Why do I feel bad every time I see you grinning?” (Edda)
Edda comes, pours out some more tea into the cup that had become empty and placed another pile of documents on the desk afterwards.
“Why? There is nothing wrong here. I am just feeling happy, thanks to the potion my hair is growing nicely.” (Mofisu)
Mofisu is now looking at his head using a mirror that is placed on top of the desk. He is grinning happily while looking at his growing hair but his grin is unpleasant.
“Also, can you tell me who the person that brought back materials and items from 「Enrio of Kusakai」 dungeon is?”(Edda)
Recently, there had been large amounts of material and items from 「Enrio of Kusakai」 dungeon delivered to the guild for appraisal. It was normal if it was gathered from a monthly dungeon raid however the amount of materials was sent on regular basis and the amount was enormous. Even for big clans, in Comer city only the ‘red meteor’ clan is able to gather such number but they won’t be able to do it continuously like what has happened. Since the items were always dropped and delivered to the adventurer’s guild by a merchant group so Edda and the rest doesn’t know who sent it except for the guild master.
“Hmm, for that matter, I couldn’t tell you who that person is.”(Mofisu)
“Why?”(Edda)
“Because I have made a promise.”(Mofisu)
“Hmph!”(Edda)
Edda then sent a deadly glare at Mofisu. Mofisu felt a little bit guilty and awkward in a hurry cleared his throat and resumed his work in sorting out documents.
“Speaking of which, guild master, do you know who planted the flowers in the garden?”(Edda)
Hearing that, Mofisu’s hand moved in a rigid motion as some of the documents fell to the ground.
“Oh dear, is there something wrong Oji-chan?”(Edda)
“N-n-n-no… and I am not an Oji-chan!”(Mofisu)
Edda then helped Mofisu to pick up the documents but when they crouched down, Mofisu always avoided eye contact with Edda. His sweat was also dropping faster.
“I was just curious that someone suddenly planted flowers in the garden. I always thought that the garden lacked something and actually it was flowers. Do you know who planted it? Was it some bored children? But I agree having more plants in the garden is a good thing.”(Edda)
“Yeah, if you say so, indeed it is a good thing.” (Mofisu)
“Alright then, I won’t disturb you any longer.”(Edda)
After that Edda left the guild master room while giving a polite bow. Mofisu then sunk deep in his chair as he let out a deep sigh.
“Fiuh… that was dangerous. That flower is the ingredient to make the potion for my hair that was given to me by Yu. I can’t let anyone know of this secret.” (Mofisu)
The flower in the garden, in fact, was planted by Mofisu. The plant was the ingredient for the hair potion. Yu had taught Mofisu how to extract the important life liquid from the petals for making the potion trough a special process. Also, because these flowers suck up more nutrients from the ground, Mofisu had been looking hard for the perfect place to plant it.
